Chapter 204: I Want to See Your Face

Im's summons was within Saint Saint Saiwen's expectations, but he hadn't expected Im's younger sister to be so anxious; the World Conference hasn't even started yet?

So eager to possess a body?

Saint Saint Saiwen had to admit: the gold content of his body was still rising.

"Here? Or somewhere else?"

Saint Saturn originally thought it would take some haggling to bring Saint Saint Saint Saiwen before my lord Im, but he never expected Saint Saint Saiwen to agree directly.

Indeed,

the specially prepared welcoming display was truly effective; even Saint Saint Saint Saiwen was corrupted by power.

With Saint Saint Saint Saiwen here, this is secure.

Even if Joy Boy revives, what of it? Even if Rubber becomes Nika Nika, what of it?

Bring it on; we have Saint Saint Saint Saiwen!

"This way." Saint Saturn gestured with his hand.

Following the Five Elders onward, Saint Saint Saiwen initially thought they were heading to the Wang Zuo of the Void, but unexpectedly arrived directly at the Flower Room, overflowing with fragrance.

It seems Im considered this not official business.

"My lord Im, Saint Saint Saint Saiwen has arrived."

Im, entirely covered in a black robe with only scarlet eyes revealed, looked at Saint Saint Saiwen, and in that second, his gaze brightened like stars in the sky.

"You all may withdraw."

"Yes, my lord Im."

The Five Elders glanced enviously at the unmoving Saint Saint Saiwen, then hurriedly bent their bodies and left.

Saint Saint Saint Saiwen's strength gives him confidence, and my lord Im actually doesn't care at all.

It can almost be foreseen: soon the Holy Land will birth a lawless, super-enhanced version of Saint Elaine.

Not only does he have great power and strong strength, but he is also Value So Highly by my lord Im; if it were them, they would absolutely be even more lawless.

After the Five Elders departed, Im deliberately switched the mixed male-and-female voice to a female voice.

"Sit."

To be honest, it sounded quite good, but the black robe was too large to tell if the figure inside was male or female.

"The contracts of Mu are divided into three types: the Shallow Sea Contract corresponds to the Divine Thicket Blade, the Deep Sea Contract corresponds to the Divine Knight, and the Abyss Contract corresponds to the Five Elders."

"Different contracts mean different rights and ability amplifications you enjoy."

"Barzab Saint Saint Saiwen, what is your choice?"

Saint Saint Saiwen pretended to ponder: Im the old timer wasted no words and went straight to the point, every aspect showing that He was truly in a hurry.

Great King Grey Wolf's Universal Seal Scroll... you must really stand up and be counted.

"Actually, I'm fine with anything."

"But before signing the contract, could you let me see your face?"

As the words fell, Im fell silent, never expecting Barzab Saint Saint Saiwen to make such a request.

"Mu's face?"

"Why?"

Saint Saint Saiwen shrugged: "My lord Im."

"You know, I was previously the cook of the Luo Jie Pirates; Captain Luo Jie once said that not seeing your face clearly was his life's regret."

"I want to help the captain fulfill his dying wish."

The truth or falsehood of these words cannot be verified, unless Im enters the Underworld to personally confirm it with Captain Luo Jie.

"Make another request."

Im indeed refused, but this was still within Saint Saint Saiwen's expectations; it would only expose Im's ability to occupy other people's bodies.

Then the face under the black robe is most likely the ancestor of Princess Vivi: Nefertari D. Lily.

What a pity,

the truth was right before his eyes, yet Saint Saint Saiwen did not have much confidence to lift the black robe.

He could only wait for some day in the future to personally uncover the truth and see what this face actually looks like.

"In that case."

"Just give me a few Mythical Zoan Devil Fruits; I have a collecting habit."

Im agreed directly without a second thought.

"There is no objection."

After promising the conditions, the conversation returned to the initial topic: which contract should Saint Saint Saiwen sign?

"How old are you this year?"

"Nineteen... and a half."

Hearing this, Im fell into hesitation.

He had originally planned to sign the highest-level contract immediately, but Barzab Saint Saint Saiwen's age of under twenty meant his future growth potential was immense.

Under normal circumstances, humans only reach their peak between the ages of twenty-five and thirty.

Signing the Abyss Contract with Barzab Saint Saint Saiwen at this time would very likely prevent him from entering his peak period.

Finding such a perfect vessel after several hundred years; if signing the Abyss Contract prematurely prevents him from reaching his peak, what use is an immortal body?

"Let's sign the Shallow Sea Contract first."

As Im's words fell, Saint Saint Saiwen became displeased.

"Don't, my lord Im."

"The Shallow Sea Contract's Divine Thicket Blade has too little power; let's go straight for the Abyss Contract; if the Abyss won't work, at least the Deep Sea Contract?"

For today,

I spent a hundred thousand points!

And the result is a Shallow Sea Contract? Isn't that a massive loss?

How can this be allowed?

It has always been only Saint Saint Saiwen acting as a profiteer to make huge profits; there is no principle of losing money in a deal.

Imu instantly fell into conflict. In terms of vessel, Barzab Saint Saint Saiwen was even more perfect than Joy Boy of the past, but there was one most important premise—

that Barzab Saint Saint Saiwen must enter his peak period.

Barzab Saint Saint Saiwen, at nineteen and a half years old, obviously still had great room for growth. Under no circumstances could the perfect vessel suffer an incident due to an Abyss Contract.

"Imu can only possess thirteen contractors with contracts of Deep Sea level or above at the same time."

"Currently, including the Five Elders and the God's Knights, there are exactly thirteen."

"Give Imu some time to free up a slot."

Seeing that Barzab Saint Saint Saiwen still intended to continue pressing, Imu hurriedly added.

"By signing a Shallow Sea Contract, Imu will still grant you the rights of a God's Knight, with a rank equivalent to the Five Elders."

"How about that?"

For how many years had it been? Imu had never encountered a contractor so eager to sign a higher-level contract.

If it were not for the obsession with perfection, Imu truly could not have resisted signing an Abyss Contract in one step.

"Are there really no slots left?"

"There are really no slots left!"

"Can't one be freed up now?"

"It really cannot be freed up now!"

Having made no progress, Saint Saint Saiwen had to accept his fate: the Universal Sealing Scroll purchased for a hundred thousand points. A Shallow Sea Contract it is, then.

At least he possessed the rights of a God's Knight, and his status was equivalent to that of the Five Elders.

With such an identity, Saint Saint Saiwen could utilize the convenience of his position to do some things that were previously difficult to achieve.

"Alright, what preparations do I need to make?"

"Just relax your mind and spirit."

Imu took a deep breath, gesturing with both hands to form a seal and begin setting up the contract formation, only to discover he could not make contact with Barzab Saint Saint Saiwen.

"You relax a bit more; Imu cannot enter."

"Relax a bit more."

Imu's crimson eyes flickered continuously, shocked by the quality of Saint Saint Saiwen's Conqueror's Haki. This was a quality of Haki second only to Joy Boy.

Far surpassing that descendant of the Davei clan from back then.

After about a moment,

Saint Saint Saiwen felt as if he had been bitten by a mosquito. A tattoo slowly appeared on his right arm.

If this were in his previous life, he wouldn't even be able to pass the civil service exam.

Fortunately, this was the world of pirates. Possessing Imu's contract tattoo was the necessary prerequisite for entering the core layer of the World Government.

"Is that it?"

"It... is."

Imu's state was somewhat off, as if he had entered a sage-like state after excessive indulgence.

"Imu needs to rest. You may withdraw. Let Saturn take you to select a Mythical Zoan-type Devil Fruit."

Saint Saint Saiwen didn't think much of it, waving his hand and smiling.

"Goodbye, my lord Imu."

Watching Saint Saint Saiwen depart, Imu slumped to the ground, panting heavily, yet his eyes sparkled with extraordinary light.

"The vessel... why is it so large?"

"Why is his soul so strong?"

"Just signing a Shallow Sea Contract has put Imu into a state of exhaustion. If an Abyss Contract were signed..."

With Barzab Saint Saint Saiwen, this is secure.

Joy Boy, with what can you defeat Imu!
