Chapter 73 Seizing Power
Chapter 73 Seizing Power
"Iron Block & Hollow Wood!"
Aini was completely unconcerned about these ordinary bullets. Even the densest barrage wouldn't harm him in the slightest.
"Swish swish..."
When these bullets hit Aini, it was as if they had hit a magical wall. Every single one of them bounced back.
"Ahh..."
Bullets rained down, felling the entire squad of soldiers to the ground. A chorus of screams filled the air...
Even Sterry, who had been shot in the leg, was now clutching his wound, staring at Annie with a ferocious expression. If looks could kill, Annie would have been torn to pieces by Sterry long ago.
"You...you...how dare you? I am a nobleman, and the prince consort of a princess."
At that moment, he couldn't understand it.
In his mind, people are divided into noble and lowly, and even a naval officer like Aini, though not under his command, must be protected completely in crucial moments.
Because he was a high-ranking nobleman in the kingdom.
"hehe..."
Looking at Sterry's face, he couldn't help but chuckle disdainfully.
This guy is a complete frog in a well. He even believes that social status and worth should be determined by one's social standing...
In the original work, he even treated the sea hero Iron Fist Garp rudely, because Garp was a citizen of his kingdom and took it for granted.
They treated Garp according to the hierarchy of social status, even believing that Garp had to obey their orders as king.
He was stunned when Karp insulted him so rudely.
Just like him now... He couldn't believe that Aini, a mere navy officer, would dare to harm a nobleman of such a kingdom as him.
"You should be grateful you were born in the East Sea! Otherwise, an idiot like you would have died countless times over. How dare you bring up nobility... In this world, the strong rule. Might makes right."
As she spoke, she walked to the door: "Your Highness, are you inside?"
Sally Nandcanette: "Here!"
Aini: "I am Aini, the newly appointed naval governor of the East China Sea. I just received your distress telegram from Your Highness. I happened to be patrolling nearby, so I came here."
"Click..."
The door opened immediately, and Sally Nandcanette walked out.
Upon seeing Aini, her heart, which had been pounding with anxiety, finally settled down. Immediately, a charming smile curved her lips.
"you..."
Staley was furious at this.
As a man, how could I not understand what it means when a woman gives a man that kind of smile?
"Humph.."
Sally Nandcanette snorted and, standing tall, looked down at Sterley.
He said viciously, "You killed my father and brothers, and harmed several of my nephews. Do you really think I didn't know? I wish I could tear you to pieces..."
Sterry froze, his eyes wide with surprise and shock, because in his mind, Sally Nandcanette was a foolish woman.
No, in his eyes, the entire Sally family was utterly foolish. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to succeed in so many ways within just three months.
"Killed him?" Aini said casually.
It was as if they weren't deciding someone's life or death, but rather discussing what to eat for lunch.
"Kill!" Sally Nandcanette gritted her teeth.
"No, no, no... no, you can't kill me." At this moment, Staley finally became afraid.
Sally Nandcanette retorted angrily, "Why not?"
"You...you...you mustn't forget that the army protecting the palace, and even guarding the capital, is in the hands of my father, Otruk III."
"If you kill me, he will never let you go... At that time, how will a mere rear admiral withstand the 30,000 elite troops of my Goa Kingdom?"
"this..."
Sally Nandcanette hesitated. Yes... as the Governor-General of the East China Sea. If given enough time, she could concentrate the East China Sea navy.
Thirty thousand elite troops are no problem.
but......
Sally Nandcanette couldn't help but look at Aini, her eyes questioning.
Thirty thousand elite troops?
That's right, they are indeed a formidable force. Even the Navy wouldn't dare underestimate them, but in this world, high-end combat power is paramount.
Without elite troops with high-end combat capabilities, they are nothing more than ants.
"brush..."
Aini drew his sword, Autumn Water, instantly creating a cold, sharp arc in the air. A gash appeared on Sterry's neck.
Instead of speaking, Aini expressed his meaning through actions.
"Pfft..."
Fresh blood gushed out as if it were free.
Staley clutched his neck tightly and slowly collapsed. As blood gushed out, he felt his life force rapidly slipping away.
Fear, despair, and a lingering attachment to power.
But it was all too late...
"shock...."
Even Sally Nandcanette was taken aback by how cleanly and efficiently Aini dealt with Sterry.
However, she immediately showed a look of satisfaction.
At the same time, the way he looked at Aini changed. This was a real man... even when it came to taking something, he wielded the Fire Staff.
Instead of harming people behind their backs with underhanded methods like Staley.
Finally, her gaze fell on Sterry, watching him slowly lose his life, still feeling unsatisfied. She whispered in his ear, "Actually, he came last night... and had a great time. We've been married for over a year, and I never thought I'd experience womanly pleasure with another man. It also made me understand what a real man is."
An hour, a whole hour!
And you?"
"Pfft..."
Staley's eyes widened in shock, and blood gushed out. But this time, it didn't come from the wound on his neck, but from his mouth.
"Hahaha..."
Sally Nandcanette burst into laughter, noticing that Sterley's previously unfocused gaze had regained its focus at her words.
For someone like Sterry to die like this is too easy. She wants him to die with immense anger and humiliation.
Only in this way did she feel incredibly happy.
.......
Annie: "Let's go! Let's go meet Otrulk III..."
Upon hearing this, Sally Nandcanette's eyes immediately sharpened again. If Sterry was the murderer of her father, brothers, and nephew, then Otrulk III was the biggest accomplice.
Even the mastermind, the real killer.
After all, most of the power is now in the hands of Otrulk III.
"brush..."
When they walked out of the corridor and onto the open field, they were surprised to find it already filled with soldiers.
At this moment, everyone pointed their guns at Aini.
Leading the group was none other than Otruuk III, whose face was filled with excitement. The current situation was truly advantageous to him.
