Chapter 267
Chapter 267
"You have a question?"
Reiju looked at her calmly.
The girl in front of her was wearing a light pink short dress that accentuated her impressive figure, black stockings that reached her thighs, high-heeled boots, and a small hat with goggles on her head. Her bright, lively smile made Reiju feel somewhat favorable toward her. Reiju patiently asked,
"Hello, let me introduce myself first."
"I’m a member of the Revolutionary Army. My name is Clara. I came here with the intention of cooperation. I would like to meet your captain, Rorschach."
Clara placed her hand on her chest and spoke in a gentle tone.
As soon as the girl revealed her identity and purpose, it immediately drew the attention of many people present.
The Revolutionary Army!
Currently, the biggest enemy of the World Government was the Revolutionary Army.
This was explosive news!
Among these girls, there were also informants working for Morgans, the News King. If this news got out, it would definitely shock the entire world.
Yonko Rorschach and the Revolutionary Army joining forces to oppose the World Government — the strongest organization in the world!
However, compared to Morgans’ spies, the expressions of Peacock and the other Marine agents turned much uglier.
This was not good news for them.
Peacock was already thinking about how to sabotage the possibility of cooperation between the two sides.
"So even the Revolutionary Army’s wild dogs want to seek protection from a Yonko? Don’t tell me that so-called ’most vicious criminal in the world’ can’t protect you anymore, so you sent a little girl to talk to Lord Rorschach?"
Peacock lightly covered her red lips with the back of her hand and let out a contemptuous, disdainful laugh.
The relationship between the Revolutionary Army and pirates was far from harmonious. The Revolutionary Army not only started uprisings in certain regions but also targeted pirate criminals.
Since Peacock was currently posing as a New World pirate captain, she could naturally show this kind of disdain without giving herself away.
Provoking conflict between the two sides and forcing them into a superior-subordinate relationship was the simplest method.
Rorschach would definitely never submit to anyone, and the Revolutionary Army would never truly join Rorschach’s forces.
This was Peacock’s plan.
Reiju remained silent and simply watched quietly.
She had also realized that many of these people were likely spies from various forces.
No wonder so many exceptionally beautiful young women had traveled all the way to the New World just to join Rorschach’s crew.
She was also seriously thinking about how to handle these girls.
Should she pretend not to know? Or should she directly inform Rorschach and let him decide?
"We came here with genuine sincerity to seek cooperation. We share a common enemy — the World Government. If we can work together, the Revolutionary Army can provide you with weapons and intelligence."
Before Reiju could make a decision, Clara spoke anxiously.
She was afraid Reiju might misunderstand. The Revolutionary Army had truly come with sincerity this time.
Everything Rorschach had done had pushed him to the opposite side of the World Government.
Especially the major incident at Sabaody Archipelago, which made countless people realize that the so-called Celestial Dragons were not true "gods." They were just ordinary humans like everyone else, only with a special status and the protection of the World Government.
His idea of ruling the world and reforming it also aligned with the Revolutionary Army’s goals.
In terms of early cooperation, the Revolutionary Army and Rorschach had a lot in common.
Combined with the strength Rorschach displayed during the Summit War, and Sabo’s descriptions, Dragon had become even more determined to cooperate with Rorschach.
"Clara, you’re being too hasty. You shouldn’t reveal all your bargaining chips at once during negotiations."
Suddenly, from within the crowd, a woman with short purple hair, a fiery figure, neat bangs, an open top without a bra, a red tie around her neck, and a cigarette in her mouth stepped forward. She spoke in a slightly reproachful tone.
"Ah, I’m sorry, Belo Betty."
Clara lightly knocked on her own head and stuck out her tongue playfully.
This purple-haired woman was Belo Betty, the East Army Commander of the Revolutionary Army.
Of course, the Revolutionary Army wouldn’t only send Clara. Since male members couldn’t enter, they had no choice but to send the female East Army Commander, Belo Betty, to accompany her.
Also accompanying them was the East Army’s vice-commander, Ahiru. However, because Ahiru’s appearance was relatively "ordinary" compared to the other two, the person in charge who had met Nami and the others felt that Rorschach probably wouldn’t be interested, so they directly rejected her.
This made Ahiru quite angry.
"Hello, Miss Reiju. I am Belo Betty, the East Army Commander of the Revolutionary Army. As you can see, we came here with sincerity to seek cooperation.
If possible, could you allow us to meet Mr. Rorschach in person to discuss things?"
Belo Betty exhaled a puff of smoke and spoke seriously.
They had tried before to send people directly to Hogg and the other people in charge under Rorschach.
But those people had completely ignored them and kicked them out.
Even Reiju hadn’t known that the Revolutionary Army had tried to contact them.
In the eyes of Hogg and the others, the Revolutionary Army’s forces weren’t even worth one of Rorschach’s hairs. There was no way Captain Rorschach would cooperate with such a group, so they hadn’t bothered with them.
Later, the Revolutionary Army had no choice. At Clara’s request, they sent these women to first make contact with the higher-ups.
This is troublesome.
Peacock’s brows were tightly furrowed.
She hadn’t heard of Clara before. In her eyes, Clara was just a minor figure in the Revolutionary Army.
After all, Clara wasn’t famous. But Belo Betty was different. Even in the New World, the East Army Commander was considered a major figure.
The Revolutionary Army had actually sent someone of this level to seduce Rorschach!
How cunning!
"No matter whether you’re from the Revolutionary Army or any other force, just follow me for now. I’ll inform Rorschach so he can meet you."
Regarding Belo Betty and Clara’s sincere request for cooperation, Reiju only replied calmly.
This time, it was Peacock’s turn to feel relieved. The Revolutionary Army members hadn’t received any special treatment, which meant she still had room to maneuver and sabotage things.
As long as they didn’t have a private conversation right now, she might still be able to prevent cooperation between the two sides.
"Alright, we understand."
The two Revolutionary Army girls frowned slightly and replied slowly.
Reiju’s attitude was neither cold nor warm. This made them feel much more uncertain about the possibility of future cooperation.
They couldn’t gauge how willing Rorschach’s side actually was to cooperate.
