Chapter 155 Serious

In the following period of time, people from all walks of life came to Pentles, including major pirates from the New World and their affiliated pirate groups, as well as major dark emperors from the underground world.

All the important figures came, and no one dared to refuse Lex's face.

Roy and Gutt are responsible for meeting with people from all parties. Of course, there are very few people who need these two to show up in person, and they are all real big shots.

For example, at this moment——

Roy stood quietly at the port, looking at the pirate ship that was getting closer and closer, with his subordinates behind him.

This strange pink pirate ship with a human face that sings as it sails is the Queen's Song, the ship that Charlotte Linlin rides!! ~

"Mmmm~~Roy~! Sasibulida~!"

BIG MOM still maintains a good figure at this time, but it has begun to show signs of being out of shape. Of course, for a woman of this level, appearance is not that important, because her husband has always been there anyway.

Although Roy, who is about three meters tall, is much shorter than BIG MOM, his aura is not inferior at all. In fact, his already calm aura seems even more powerful at this moment.

According to convention, when the leaders of both sides meet, there must be a crack in the sky.

So, the next moment——

“Mmmmmm~!!”

“Hahaha~!~”

Overlord black lightning burst out, huge black and red arcs surrounded the sky, and the sky cracked!

The domineering colors of both sides were almost evenly matched, or maybe they were just greeting each other, so they were controlling their strength and there was no fierce fight.

So, after fighting for a while, both sides tacitly withdrew their domineering aura at the same time.

Then, Roy took the initiative to step forward:

"Lingling, this time I prepared your favorite dessert, as well as the caramel puffs that Lex specially sent back from Elbaf. I hope you like them."

Roy's smile is extremely similar to Lex's. Both of them have gentle and elegant temperaments, but their smiles always make people feel warm and cheerful.

Big Mom, who already liked all kinds of men, was even more delighted at this moment. She picked up Roy and rubbed him on her chest:

"Mmmm~! Roy!~ Give me a baby. If our blood is combined, we will definitely--"

Roy was pressed against the huge chest and couldn't breathe, so he activated the ability of the Illusion Fruit to transform and escape:

"Ha, Lingling, you are still so enthusiastic. However, I appreciate your kindness. Let's go to the World Expo together. This is the largest Qinghai feast in history."

Big Mom is not angry either:

"Well, well, well~ Let's go for a walk together. By the way, where's Lex?"

"Well, it seems that I have other things to do with Gion. Anyway, I am in charge here, so, Lingling, I hope you don't do anything out of line."

Roy said unequivocally that when dealing with a big pirate like BIG MOM, being unconditionally friendly would only make the other party worse, so one must show a tough side occasionally.

Fortunately, Charlotte Lingling is still quite clear-headed now. She also knows that Roy is not only the general manager of this Expo, but also the executor of Lex's will!

Leon Lex, BIG MOM feels inferior to him and is even quite afraid of him, not to mention the monsters behind Lex, the Golden Lion, the Red Earl, the White Beard, and even Wang Zhi and Silver Axe, she can't deal with any of them.

"Well, don't worry. I'm here with my children to have fun. I won't be tactless."

"Lingling, you're too polite. Let's continue to look at the Expo. This is the entrance to the Royal City. Now..."

Roy also politely changed the subject.

And at this moment, Lex, just as Roy said, was taking Gion to do other things.

"Huh?~"

Gion put her hands on her hips and her furrowed brows clearly showed that she was in a bad mood at the moment.

"Why can't I go out with you?"

Gion's voice was trembling slightly when he said this. Lex had just rejected him very straightforwardly, and that tone even made Gion dare not lose his temper with Lex again.

The reason why Gion was so unscrupulous in front of Lex in the past was because she knew that Lex gave in to her and spoiled her, and she also felt a heavy sense of security from Lex.

And what Lex said just now made Gion almost cry.

"Why? Why don't you let me appear with you at the opening ceremony of the World Expo? Aren't we husband and wife?"

The corners of Gion's eyes turned slightly red, and his already crimson pupils almost turned into rubies, which made Lex feel distressed.

"...Dear, this is not a wedding ceremony. I won't tell anyone else, but I can tell you clearly that the opening ceremony of the World Expo will be broadcast live throughout the ocean. We can't let you and I get too close, otherwise all our efforts over the past year will be in vain."

Gion didn't lose his temper, but continued to ask in a soft voice:

"But...but everyone knows our relationship, and you said that you are now the Executive Prime Minister of the World Government. This identity allows us to appear in front of the sea openly~"

It can be seen that she really wanted to hold Lex's arm, walk at the much-anticipated opening ceremony of the World Expo, and show off her and Lex's love to everyone in the world.

Of course Lex knew what Gion was thinking, and he didn't mind at all.

only:

"........Dear, the 'everyone' you are talking about are the Five Elders, Kong, Sengoku, uncle, master, dad and others. These are just a small group of people at the top of the ocean. The 'everyone' I am talking about are the millions of people in the ocean. These people will join the navy and the government in the future, and you will need to lead them in the future. If you are the woman of Lex who caused turmoil in the ocean and separated countless people from their wives and children, what will these people think?"

"...Obviously not... You obviously didn't cause any major turmoil, and you are the Prime Minister of the World Government, why?~"

"…Because the World Expo is an opportunity for me to plant a seed in the hearts of all the people in the sea, a seed of 'power', and this seed will take root and sprout completely in the year 1498 of the Haiyuan calendar. By then, I will do something to put an end to this World Expo, and it will also trigger a real era of chaos, far exceeding the darkness and chaos of all previous eras, and will completely stand on the opposite side of the sea. And if you and I appear hand in hand on the opening day of the World Expo, what will everyone think decades later?"

"…But…we don't have a wedding ceremony…"

Gion's eyes suddenly became very calm, and underneath the calmness was an indescribable sadness.

After hearing these short words, all of Lex's eloquent words seemed to be strangled in his throat and he couldn't utter them at all. He stared at Gion in a daze.

After a long while, he exhaled and gave up all his previous insistence:

"...Okay, .....I promise. No matter what the future holds, no matter how the navy develops, no matter whether these plans are successful or not, .....Let's go together tomorrow, arm in arm, wear formal attire, walk on the main street of Pentles Royal City, and walk towards the sea in front of everyone, okay, dear?"

Lex lovingly hugged the silent Gion in his arms and gently rubbed her waist.

Lex felt her shoulders were a little wet, it seemed that Gion was crying, she replied softly:

"……Um."

"Hey~ Do you think I'm being unreasonable?"

Gion may be like this. If you don't agree to her, she will try every means to pester you. Then, after you agree to her, she will feel very guilty and think that she is being unreasonable. She is always a very complicated and arrogant woman.

Lex didn't pamper Gion this time:

"Yes, my wife is always unreasonable, but who told me to give up everything with the words 'we don't have a wedding ceremony'? ... The freedom I pursue cannot be without you. If you are not happy, then what is the point of all the arrangements and plans? Honey, I'm sorry, it was me back then -"

“Ugh~!——”

The mouth was blocked, and the soft pink tongue tip pried open the teeth. The two people entangled together, their breathing became rapid, and their cheeks quickly heated up and became rosy.

"... From now on, don't say sorry to me."

Gion lowered his arm that was around Lex's neck, put down his tiptoes, gently held Lex's cheeks with both hands, and spoke seriously.

"Oh."

Lex smiled happily, and Gion's eyes became even redder.
