Chapter 22 The King and the Prince

"You little brat! I guessed you were here! You're already in your twenties, can you spare me some time? You're skipping classes again!" A middle-aged man with gray hair rushed in from the gate and grabbed Prince Riku's ear.

"Father! Father! Let go, it's going to fall off! My ear's going to fall off!" Prince Riku yelled exaggeratedly. From his name, we can guess that the man is the current King Riku - Riku Andot II

"You still feel pain? You skipped etiquette class, finance class, and military class. How can I trust you to hand over the country to you when you're like this!" King Riku looked like he was disappointed with his son, but he still let go of Prince Riku after glancing at Lily and Kaido who were watching the show on the side.

"Sorry to both of you for interrupting your fun, Yvette, three more rounds of drinks, I'll pay for them." King Riku coughed and apologized to Lily and the others.

"It's okay. Thanks to the prince's guidance, we were able to find the tavern." Lily smiled and nodded to King Riku.

"Ha, this guy is not good in every aspect, except that he has a warm heart, but I didn't expect that the people from the Rocks Pirates would come to our small place." King Riku laughed, and suddenly changed the subject to look at Kaido.

"Old man, you are not well-informed. The Rocks Pirates have been disbanded, and that bastard Rocks is dead." Kaido took the wine sent by Yvette, drank a glass in one breath, and said with a mocking King Riku.

"Is Rocks really dead?" King Riku looked at Kaido. He had heard rumors, but he didn't know what happened in the Valley of the Gods. He only knew that the navy won, but how they won, and what happened to the Rocks Pirates, he still didn't know.

"Dead, I don't know the specifics, but the life card has turned into ashes, it must be dead, the navy should have a notice soon."

"Really? That's a good thing." King Riku muttered in a low voice.

"Yes, that guy died well." Although King Riku's voice was very low, it could not escape Kaido's ears, and Kaido immediately replied.

"Oh? Aren't you a member of the Rocks Pirates? Are you so happy that your captain is dead?" Lily glanced at Kaido and said, of course, she knew that Kaido was a guy who was unwilling to be inferior to others, but she really thought so about the captain's death.

"That guy, I admit that Rocks is very strong, but I will never admit that he is the captain." Kaido took another sip of wine, "The entire Rocks Pirates was completely forced together by Rocks' strength. Rocks ruled the entire pirate group with terror. In simple terms, it is the law of the jungle. Rather than saying that this is a pirate group, it is better to say that it is a pirate alliance. Anyone with a little strength has two hearts."

"It sounds like a very bad guy." Lily curled her lips.

"He's just a terrible guy. Don't mention him. Let's drink." Kaido echoed and picked up the glass to Lily. "To celebrate the reunion! Cheers!"

"Cheers!" Lily clinked glasses with Kaido and drank the wine in the glass.

"White hair, right angles, reunion, you are Rose Lily!" King Riku stared at Lily and suddenly reacted and shouted.

"Do you know me?" Lily glanced at King Riku.

"Of course, the ghost tribe with white hair and right angles who is familiar with Kaido must be Rose Lily mentioned by the idiot Vodka III."

"Do you know Vodka III?" Kaido said before Lily spoke.

"Yes, I know him. He attended the last World Government Conference. That idiot exchanged the future of the country for an unnecessary meeting." King Riku did not hide his contempt for Vodka III. He was just a short-sighted fool.

"Wow! Great, today is great. In addition to reuniting with Lily, I actually met such interesting people like you two. Wow, I must get drunk!" Kaido was ecstatic when he heard King Riku's words. He quickly stood up and wanted to order some wine, but suddenly stopped. He remembered that he had no money.

As a pirate, it was okay to eat a free meal, but in Kaido's mind, Riku and his son were people who were good at his temper. For such people, Kaido would follow the rules. Even if they were enemies, he would choose a one-on-one approach, not to mention that Riku and his son invited him to drink.

"Ms. Yvette, please move a barrel of wine." Just when Kaido was struggling, Lily successfully spoke to save him, and Zhizhi jumped into the backpack and took out a stack of Baileys and handed it to Kaido.

"You're treating us today." Lily winked at Kaido, and Kaido understood and threw the Baileys on the table, "Change all these Baileys into wine!"

This stack of money was about 200,000 Baileys, which was not a lot, but it was enough for beer. Soon, Yvette held four full barrels of beer and placed them next to the people. At the same time, she took out a lot of homemade snacks and placed them on the table. Because there was only so much beer, the remaining money was exchanged by Yvette for the honey wine of the giants. Kaido was not very interested in this sweet wine, but Lily drank it with relish.

And Riku and his son forgot what they came for. Kaido dragged them to drink crazily. They were dazed after a while. The drunk King Riku even called Kaido, who was one year younger than his son, "Big Brother" and even wanted to swear brotherhood. Kaido, the fool, also agreed in a daze, and even dragged Prince Riku to join. In the end, Lily, who couldn't bear it, had a big fight with each of them and successfully awakened the three people.

The group drank until eight o'clock in the evening. With Kaido's strong alcohol tolerance, they drank all the wine stored in Yvette. Of course, this was related to the fact that Yvette was originally preparing to store new wine and had no inventory. In addition to the 200,000 Baileys at the beginning, Lily took out another 1 million Baileys. These were the money left by Wanshou for her. The total was 35.5 million Baileys, not a lot, just enough to buy King Luffy who had just set out to sea.

Lily felt a headache looking at the three men sleeping on the ground. Although Kaido was prone to making mistakes before, he was not like this. What had he encountered on the sea in recent years?

Just as Lily was thinking about how to deal with the three people, neat footsteps came from outside the door, and soon, a voice came from outside the door.

"Mrs. Yvette! Are the king and the prince here with you?"

"Inside."

With such a conversation, the door was opened again, and two guards in armor walked in, and saw the three people sleeping side by side on the ground at a glance.

"Your Majesty! Your Highness!" Guard A hurried forward to check the situation, but he was relieved when he saw the snot bubbles on the noses of the two and their even breathing.

Guard B saw Lily sitting on the side, and walked up to her politely and asked, "Hello, Miss, who are you?"

"My brother and I came here to play, and we happened to meet your prince. He brought us here to drink, and then your king came. After that, they drank too much and fell asleep. It's that simple, take your king and prince back." Lily could guess what the guard meant, and directly explained the cause and effect.

"Okay, Miss, let me send someone to help you send your brother to the hotel." Soldier B said very politely.

"No need, carry them back, let them stay here today." Yvette said to Guard B when she walked in from the door.

"Won't it be troublesome for you?" Lily said first.

"Hahahaha, no trouble, no trouble. There is no bed for you guys of your size except here on the island. I have a room upstairs, no problem." Yvette said generously.

"That's troublesome." Lily thanked her and turned to nod to the guard.

"Thank you, Madam Yvette." The two guards carried Riku and his son and turned to walk out the door.

After watching them walk away, Lily kicked Kaido twice.

"Wake up, stop pretending, they are far away."

Kaido, who was drunk and unconscious just now, sat up instantly, and the redness on his face faded instantly, and there was no sign of drunkenness at all.

Thanks to the author of "Warhammer: In the Name of the Son of Heaven", the contemporary Sorel, for recommending the book. I didn't expect that I would have such a day.
