Chapter 248

Reiju could see the affection in the man's eyes, and the domineering intent within it was enough to make any woman flustered.

Reiju pressed her pink lips and said:

"Did you just hear what Germa said?"

Luo Xing nodded: "Indeed."

Reiju bit her lower lip slightly:

"Do you agree to his request, willing to leave Germa under his command again, and go execute the mission to conquer the North Blue?"

Luo Xing smiled freely:

"There is nothing wrong with this; moreover, Germa's clone soldiers will only be eternally loyal to me. Even if Vegapunk wants to rebel, he lacks the ability."

"Furthermore, Vegapunk is ultimately a local power in the North Blue; he is more familiar with the terrain and distribution of nations there than I am. Letting him wage war on the North Blue is indeed the best choice."

A trace of complexity flashed through Reiju's beautiful eyes.

She did not expect Luo Xing to be so magnanimous and think so thoroughly.

There was no need for her to persuade him; this man would have agreed to Vegapunk's request on his own.

Poor her selfish and ignorant father, who could not see this, yet wanted to give her to Luo Xing, and even knelt before her.

Reiju sighed and said:

"Since that is the case, it seems I do not need to give myself to you, and besides, you already have a wife..."

Luo Xing moved closer to Reiju.

The two were only a few centimeters apart, their breaths clearly felt by each other.

Luo Xing's gentle voice said:

"You belong to me; you are destined to be my woman."

Reiju's beautiful face turned slightly red.

The man's so direct words made her, who was always bold and mature, feel a bit flustered.

She gave Luo Xing a white look and said:

"I knew you had bad intentions long ago; the first time you came to Germa, you broke into someone's room in the dead of night, using the excuse of telling me about my younger brother Sanji."

Luo Xing's face could not help but show some embarrassment.

He did not expect Reiju to have seen through his intentions long ago.

It was not strange, after all, Reiju was a very intelligent woman.

In the cold and aggressive Germa Kingdom, only she could remain calm at all times.

Although Luo Xing planned to let the submissive Vegapunk command the Germa clone army to wage war on the North Blue.

The power of the strategist would be given to Reiju.

As for Sanji, last time at the Sabaody Archipelago, Luo Xing, out of consideration for Reiju, did not harm Sanji.

Afterwards, that person was slapped away by the tyrant Kuma; he must have flown to the Kamabacka Kingdom, just like in the original story.

Luo Xing silently pitied Sanji in his heart.

As a beauty-lover with the same hobbies, the Kamabacka Kingdom was absolutely hell within hell.

As these thoughts turned in his mind, he heard Reiju's voice continue:

"That day before you left, I just smiled at you, and you looked almost unable to hold back!"

"Hmph! Your wife was right there at that time, truly so wicked!"

Reiju unconsciously revealed a charming expression.

Luo Xing's throat rolled; suddenly he extended both hands and embraced Reiju's willow-thin waist.

He whispered into the beauty's crystal-clear ear:

"I never said I was a good person."

Reiju's jade hands pressed against Luo Xing's chest; she raised her head, gazing at the handsome face of the man so close, her large eyes filled with affection as she said:

"So, do you want to bully me like a villain?"

Luo Xing indicated that if he did not become a villain at this moment, he would be worse than a villain!

Several hours later.

Luo Xing held Reiju tightly and said seriously:

"When I destroyed Impel Down this time, I seem to have been poisoned by Magellan."

Weak and lacking strength, Reiju was immediately startled, sat up, and said urgently:

"Where were you poisoned? Why didn't you say so earlier?"

She searched for a long time but could not find even a trace of poisoning on Luo Xing's body.

Reiju's beautiful eyes immediately became somewhat strange; she vaguely understood what Luo Xing meant.

Luo Xing said with an expectant gaze:

"That Magellan is a Devil Fruit user of the Poison-Poison Fruit; wherever he is, even the surrounding air is poisonous; I inevitably inhaled a little."

"The poison has seeped into my body; it cannot be seen from the outside."

"Reiju, can't you absorb poison? Help me."

Another several hours passed.

Luo Xing walked out of Reiju's room, completely satisfied.

He felt refreshed and clear-headed, sensing his whole body filled with energy.

He turned his head to look at Reiju, who could still barely support herself while holding his arm, and said with a smile:

"Germa's technology truly has its unique aspects. You can actually swallow toxins without suffering any harm."

"If you like eating them so much, next time I'll get poisoned a few more times."

Reiju's pretty face flushed bright red, her beautiful eyes nearly brimming with tears, and she hummed in a tone even more coquettish than before:

"You only know how to torment me!"

Luo Xing burst into laughter, wrapped his arm around Reiju's even slimmer waist, and walked toward Germa's palace.

Inside the palace.

Judge, Ichiji, Niji, and Yonji — the four father-and-sons — were all still inside.

Seeing Luo Xing, the three brothers Ichiji, Niji, and Yonji immediately dropped to one knee and bowed:

"Greetings, my lord Luo Xing!"

After their reformation, they already regarded Luo Xing as their master.

Even if Luo Xing ordered them to kill their own father Judge, they wouldn't so much as furrow a brow.

Compared to the three brothers' single-knee kneel, Judge went down with a thud on both knees, and said in terror:

"My lord Luo Xing, 823 I am willing to submit to you, willing to submit to the Beasts Pirates!"

"I only hope you can entrust me with the mission of conquering the North Blue!"

Judge, kneeling on the ground, quietly raised his head.

He saw his daughter Reiju clinging to Luo Xing's arm, and his heart leaped with joy.

Clearly, the relationship between Reiju and my lord Luo Xing had already developed to that stage.

His previous plea to Reiju had not been in vain after all.

Judge, selfish to the extreme, had nothing in his head but his own ambition.

As for whether Reiju herself was actually willing to become my lord Luo Xing's woman, he couldn't care less.

Women were, after all, just a kind of object — even his own biological daughter was no exception.

Luo Xing did not respond to Judge, nor did he tell the three brothers to rise.

He walked straight to the throne at the very top of the palace and sat down.

Although when speaking with Reiju his expression was gentle and his tone very soft,

In the eyes of others, Luo Xing, who had long occupied a position of supreme authority, radiated an aura of majesty and domineering air at every single moment.

This majesty and domineering made those beneath him tremble with fear.

Just like the father and four sons Judge at this moment — cold sweat streamed down their foreheads.

Seated upon the throne, with Reiju beside him, Luo Xing's faint voice finally spoke:

"All of you, rise."

"Vinsmoke Judge, swallow this Ghost-class monster cell."
