Chapter 641

At this very moment, Okita Kozo's expression had completely collapsed.

What kind of bullshit bond is this!

Still kicking me while I'm down, are you!

Okita Kozo now felt like killing himself; he had originally intended to ruthlessly scam the Camel Nation!

Who would have thought that he would be directly counter-killed by the Camel Nation's representative!

Thirty billion!

What kind of concept is this? With this money, the Dragon Nation could have built several aircraft carriers!

He, unexpectedly, only bought back one Heavenly King-class?

One must know, the construction cost of one Heavenly King-class is at most only a little over one billion Dragon Nation currency!

Even if going to the Free Nation to buy one, it would only be ten billion!

At the sky-high price of thirty billion, if the Sakura Nation built it themselves, they could have built ten Heavenly King-class ships!

Now, he had actually only redeemed one?

What kind of international joke is this!

If this matter were to spread back to the Sakura Nation, it would probably be enough to anger the Meiji Emperor into losing ten years of his life!

The Shogun would be so angry he'd take a sword and start hacking people in the street!

If he, Okita Kozo, isn't forced to commit seppuku, it will be really hard to wrap this up...

At the same time.

The representatives of various nations present, seeing that Okita Kozo had actually used thirty billion to buy a destroyer, laughed out loud directly.

At first, everyone was laughing at the Camel Nation for being a "generous benefactor"!

Now it seems, the Sakura Nation is actually the number one philanthropist on the Blue Planet!

Not only did they give away their own fleet for free, but now they've turned around and thrown away thirty billion just to buy one destroyer...

This IQ, there's really no one else like it...

Feeling the mocking gazes of the crowd, Okita Kozo struggled to squeeze out a smile that was even uglier than crying.

What the hell is this!

Okita Kozo, are you fucking sick in the head!

Why did you have to go and provoke the Camel people for no reason?

But now, the only ones left who can save him, Okita Kozo, and the Sakura Nation are the Camel Nation's representative, Al-Wai.

The next second, Okita Kozo looked at Al-Wai with pleading eyes.

His gaze was filled with begging.

"Ahem!"

"Representative of the Sakura Nation, please have some self-respect..."

"I have money, but my sexual orientation is very normal; I have no interest in men."

"You looking at me like that, I'm not really used to it..."

"Between us, there is no possibility!"

A burst of uproarious laughter erupted in the venue!

The Sakura Nation had once again become the laughingstock of everyone, and even Anthony, who was usually stern, couldn't help but snort with laughter upon hearing Al-Wai's witty remark.

Okita Kozo was so embarrassed his toes were curling into the floor; he simply wanted to dig a three-bedroom apartment to crawl into.

This is just too damn shameful...

Within a single day, being humiliated in turns by the Dragon Nation and the Camel Nation, Okita Kozo felt his mental state was about to collapse.

One must know, in such diplomatic occasions, his behavior represents the Sakura Nation!

After these two waves, the face of the Sakura Nation had been completely thrown away by Okita Kozo in the international community!

Just as Okita Kozo hung his head, feeling utterly ashamed.

Wu Xiang's resonant voice slowly came through.

"In this round of bidding, the Sakura Nation has bid thirty billion Dragon Nation currency. Are there any nations with a higher bid?"

The venue was deathly silent.

Okita Kozo's face was pale, like an old dog whose spine had been pulled out.

"Sakura Nation, thirty billion, going once!"

"Sakura Nation, thirty billion, going twice!"

"Sakura Nation, thirty billion..."

"Wait!"

Okita Kozo gritted his teeth and finally made up his mind, interrupting Wu Xiang's words.

Buying the Heavenly King-class for thirty billion is something he, Okita Kozo, cannot accept, and the Sakura Emperor can accept it even less!

After a long while, Okita Kozo spoke with great difficulty: "Colonel Wu, the previous bidding was all a momentary lapse in judgment on my part, so... so it was an unintentional mistake. I hope you will forgive me!"

"My Sakura Nation is truly unable to afford such a high price, so I suggest that this round of bidding be cancelled..."

"Cancelled?"

Wu Xiang's expression suddenly sank.

Want to cancel?

Isn't the duck that's already in my mouth about to fly away?

How could Wu Xiang let such a thing happen!

The next instant, a hint of killing intent quietly emerged in his eyes as he looked at Okita Kozo.

"Your Excellency Okita! Please make one thing clear: this is my Dragon Nation's auction, not something a Sakura person can just say cancel and have it cancelled!"

"Who do you think you are?"

"In my Dragon Nation's auction, the possibility of cancellation does not exist! Everyone must be responsible for their own actions! Nations are the same!"

"If every nation were like you, bidding randomly, bidding maliciously, and then lightly saying 'cancel' to finish it off, then would my auction even be worth holding?"

Wu Xiang's deafening voice echoed in everyone's ears.

Okita Kozo's lips moved; he really wanted to retort, but he didn't know how to start.

In this matter, no matter how you look at it, it was his Sakura Nation that was in the wrong first.

After a long time, Okita Kozo whispered in defense: "Colonel Wu Xiang, my previous remarks only represent me personally, and have nothing to do with Sakura... I... my side strongly suggests cancelling the results of this auction; Sakura... Sakura is truly unable to bear it..."

Once these words were spoken, the gazes of almost all the national representatives turned toward Wu Xiang.

Okita Kozo's move, in the eyes of the representatives of various nations, was completely a self-destruction of Sakura's international credibility in exchange for a test of the Dragon Nation's attitude.

Indeed, the Dragon Nation, through several major victories, had already established a firm foothold in the international community and even established the status of a superpower!

But what the Dragon Nation's specific foreign attitude is, no one can figure out.

If the Dragon Nation's attitude is the same as before, still soft and weak.

Then this ship purchase payment, the various nations would naturally consider carefully whether it should be paid in full at once...

After all, a nation that is diplomatically weak!

No matter how strong its strength is, it is destined that few nations will fear it...

Feeling everyone's gaze, Wu Xiang also knew in his heart that he was not representing himself now, but the entire Dragon Nation.

His attitude is the Dragon Nation's attitude!

The next second, Wu Xiang's loud voice resounded through the clouds.

"Sakura representative! I warn you!"

"The result of this auction cannot be cancelled!"
