Pirates: I am your father

Chapter 19 Banquet



The day after Roy's return to Marigio, his uncle summoned him.He asked Roy about some recent events and told him that there would be a banquet the night after tomorrow and that he would introduce some people to him.

By the way, Roy's uncle is the patriarch of the Don Quixote family of the Celestial Dragon family.

Roy was not very willing to participate in such a boring banquet. He was still thinking about his poaching business, so there was no time to waste.

But in a blink of an eye, I thought that this seemed to be an opportunity, so I readily agreed and asked my uncle to give an invitation to Don Quixote Huo Minggu.

A day or two passed quickly, and the night of the banquet came in a blink of an eye.

The Celestial Dragons are very wealthy and the banquets they hold are extremely luxurious.

In a huge palace that can accommodate tens of thousands of people, all kinds of fantasy colors are dancing.

The huge crystal chandelier stretches like a bunch of grapes.The seven-colored clouds float leisurely here and there, carrying various special delicacies.There are also beautiful waitresses carrying fragrant wine and expensive glasses among the people coming and going.

Don Quixote Huo Minggu brought his beloved wife to the banquet on time.

He was very happy to attend this banquet.Because he usually behaves independently, he usually has few friends in Mariejoia.

And this time, he was invited to the banquet held by the clan leader, which made him quite touched.

And because of him, Tulip Avril has very few friends, so this is the first time she can attend such a high-level banquet.

Therefore, as soon as he arrived at the banquet, Huo Minggu happily took Avril around and tried to introduce her to other Tianlong people.

Some Dracos exchanged business cards with him in a friendly manner, some were disapproving, and some were displeased.

"Don Quixote Ancient Sage Huo Ming, how can someone like you come here?"

A fat, square-headed Celestial Dragon man wearing sunglasses pointed at Huo Minggu and shouted loudly.

"Saint Rothschild, what's wrong with me here?"

Don Quixote Huo Minggu was a little at a loss. Couldn't he come by himself?

"How could the patriarch send a banquet invitation to a stranger like you who claims to like the life of ordinary people? You didn't sneak in with your wife, a low-class person, while the guard wasn't paying attention, did you? Hahaha!"

Rothschild seemed to think that the show was not lively enough and deliberately laughed to attract more people to watch.

Huo Minggu was a good old man. He blushed and didn't know how to refute. He could only keep explaining: "No, it was the patriarch who sent me an invitation letter to invite me."

Tulip Avril and Huo Minggu have very similar personalities, and they are also flustered and don't know how to refute.

"Saint Rothschild, what are you doing?"

At the critical moment, Roy stood up and angrily criticized Rothschild.

"Roy Saint, you came just in time. Get these two people out quickly, they sneaked in."

Seeing Roy's arrival, Rothschild seemed to have found a helper.

Huo Minggu became even more panicked. Cold sweat broke out on his head. He was anxious, but he didn't know what to do. He could only keep saying that he was invited by the clan leader.

People around him shook their heads. Huo Minggu's performance seemed to be guilty.

After Roy glanced at Huo Minggu, he turned to Rothschild and said sternly: "Sage Huo Ming was indeed invited by us. If Saint Rothschild still wants to make trouble, please go out and make trouble! "

Rothschild suddenly blushed, but it was because he was angry. Roy spoke up for Huo Minggu and it seemed that he was being unreasonable.But he had no choice but to say "Humph" to Roy and leave.

"Ancient Sage Huo Ming, and this beautiful lady, are you okay?"

After Rothschild left, Roy turned to Huo Minggu and smiled.

"It's okay, thank you, otherwise we wouldn't know what to do."

Roy was able to help him out, and Huo Minggu was very grateful to Roy.

"It's not me who should apologize. Inviting you here only caused you to be slandered like this."

Facing Huo Minggu and his wife, Roy behaved modestly and courteously, like a noble gentleman.

"Did you invite us? Aren't you the clan leader?"

"I invited you here. After hearing about your love story, I admired you very much, so I took it upon myself to ask my uncle to send you an invitation letter."

Huo Minggu and his wife were very surprised. It turned out that the man in front of them invited them here, and he also admired their love story?

This made Huo Minggu and his wife feel embarrassed, and at the same time, their favorability towards Roy increased.

Roy chatted with them casually and showed them around.

It wasn't until Roy's uncle called him over that Roy reluctantly said goodbye to Huo Minggu and his wife.

Huo Minggu and his wife also felt that they had a great time chatting with Roy, and their outlook and personality seemed to be very compatible.Until Roy left, they still felt that they were still unfulfilled.

Unfortunately, Roy seemed unable to arrange time to talk to them until the end of the banquet.

. . . . . .

In a palace in the center of Mariejoia.

Five formidable old men were holding a discussion meeting about Roy. Some of them had gray hair, some were covered with wrinkles, or some had faces full of vicissitudes of life.

"The military compensation promised by Saint Fegalan Dink and Saint Don Quixote Roy has been paid."

"Oh, I heard that they raised money from the Celestial Dragons in the Valley of Gods. The amount raised seems to be far more than the amount to compensate for military expenses?"

Someone seemed to know something inside and spoke up.

"They can handle the extra by themselves, we just need to receive our share."

"I agree. The information that the Rocks Pirates are planning to attack the Valley of the Gods was provided to us by them, and they will also compensate us for military expenses. We have already taken advantage of it."

"Then how to arrange the high-level position in the Navy that was promised to Roy Saint?"

Someone had a headache.

"It has been many years since a Celestial Dragon entered the Navy as a senior officer, and based on past experience, the Celestial Dragon and the Navy simply cannot get along."

"Whether we get along or not is not our business. I suggest just assigning him a lieutenant general position. Anyway, he seems to be quite powerful."

Some people shook their heads and said, "No, he has done a lot of credit this time, and he won't be satisfied. I think we should arrange him as the Chief of Staff of the Navy. This position does not have any real power, but it is very high-level."

"It seems really good."

"What are the arrangements for Staff He? We originally planned to promote her to senior staff officer after this incident."

"Then He will be promoted to deputy staff officer. The naval staff still needs to have a guy who can control him."

"Okay, that's fine."

"By the way, Ting Kong's report said that Roy Saint's guard Senju Hashirama, well, the guy who defeated Rocks with Garp in the end, will also go to the navy."

"His strength is very good. I heard he is not weaker than Sengoku and Garp. It is a good thing to join the Navy. With a record of defeating Charlotte Lingling and Rocks, how about directly promoting him to Lieutenant General?"

"Agree! x4"
