Tao Yu’s words concluded, and Grimmjow bent over to accept the command.
As for Kirito and the others, this was their first genuine glimpse at the boss behind the scenes.
The re presence and pressure, along with Mr. Grimmjow’s respect, were enough to demonstrate the authority he commanded!
After Tao Yu’s apparition faded, Grimmjow let out a slight sigh of relief and then said to Yongdu beside him,
"Bring them in, after a briefing, we will set off."
Grimmjow had already developed his own understanding of Tao Yu’s directive.
Sending Yongdu and the Living Martial Arts back first was out of concern that the impending conflict would be too intense to protect them.
Shortly after Yongdu left, he had already brought over the warrior chief, Brian, and the others.
When the Platinum Dragon King’s armor was ineffective against Grimmjow, and since Grimmjow was not one to concede, the Platinum Dragon King naturally had to relent!
After exchanging so intelligence about the Reincarnators and the Pioneers, the Platinum Dragon King chose a temporary retreat.
Although both sides might be hiding sothing, there was a mutual consensus to cease hostilities, for now.
For the Platinum Dragon King, even matters concerning the players had to be temporarily set aside; the threat of the Abyss Fall and the Burning Legion had to be prioritized, gathering all possible power.
Even if he wouldn’t easily believe Grimmjow’s claims, that he wasn’t an Abyss lackey, as long as there was a willingness to negotiate, it was worth the discussion!
Currently, it seed unlikely that they were allied with the Burning Legion, possibly another Abyss force.
In such a scenario, any clash between them would be advantageous for the Platinum Dragon King...
Since the Platinum Dragon King compromised, the ownership of the warrior chief was naturally settled!
Perhaps the warrior chief wasn’t afraid of death, perhaps the King was willing to stand up for him.
But after the devastation Grimmjow caused on the outskirts of the Royal Capital, a simple ’you don’t want...’ was enough to make the warrior chief comply obediently.
Now, with a serious expression, he followed Brian and ca before Grimmjow.
Besides them, several renowned martial artists of the Kingdom were present, including the muscular, hamr-wielding warrior Gegran.
"I rember, you said I could propose a price and terms."
Gejiefu looked at Grimmjow, his deanor sowhat resolute.
"Of course, to ensure your dedication, I will naturally reassure you a bit, go ahead and try to make a request."
"Release the two from Gray Rose."
Gejiefu’s words made Grimmjow pause for a mont, then he gave him a long, deep look.
"So easily morally constrained, the end you’re going to et isn’t likely to be good..."
Finishing his sentence, Grimmjow waved his hand towards Yongdu.
Last ti, Scathach had made her stance clear: prioritize main issues over secondary endeavors.
Shortly after, Yongdu brought out two burlap sacks and directly tossed them on the ground.
Blowing a whistle, the opening of the sacks was instantly untied, revealing the two bound individuals.
During this period, Asuna had been taking care of them. Despite looking sowhat disheveled, their overall spirits weren’t too bad.
Their appearance greatly excited Rackis, the captain of the Gray Rose, who had co along.
She hadn’t expected to reclaim her companions so easily.
However, upon looking back at the warrior chief and the others, she appeared a bit worried.
She then took a step forward and said,
"I have so knowledge of martial arts as well; may I also propose so requests?"
Grimmjow raised an eyebrow at the female knight and then nodded.
"You’re quite clever; if successful, you’ll enjoy endless riches and glory in the future. Go on."
"My request is, if possible, to ask for your protection or that of your organization over the Kingdom."
Rackis’s words did not surprise Grimmjow much.
"You don’t actually need to probe; we will probably leave here soon. Before leaving, the boss will handle everything, and what happens thereafter is up to you."
After speaking, Grimmjow paused and then smiled at the crowd.
"Even the boss pays close attention to the Burning Legion. You should be grateful that we passed by; otherwise, your fate might not have been good..."
...
In the Royal Capital, as Grimmjow was wrapping up the mundane matters, and having gained substantial intelligence from the Platinum Dragon King, he was preparing to transport the goods he had collected back as per instructions.
Sebas, who was guarding the snowfield borders assigned to the Magic Country, suddenly lifted his head and saw a figure in a suit flying from the sky.
"I didn’t expect it to be you coming over."
Sebas looked at Demigros; due to the difficult relationship between their Creators, their relationship was relatively strained as well.
However, now both served under the orders of Lord Anzi Wuer Gong, so personal feelings were suppressed.
"Our abilities indeed complent each other. The Lord ordered that when our Guardians travel, they should always go in pairs, to avoid being picked off one by one."
Demigros adjusted his glasses, and behind those lenses, his squinting eyes seed as if they had never opened.
"It seems our enemies are quite troubleso then."
Sebas’s expression remained calm, appearing like a white-haired gentleman.
He carried out the Supre Leader’s commands ticulously, without any complaints.
