“But, with so many fleets of the grizzly pirates there, will they really accept our reorganization with peace of mind?”

“Of course not. However, when they attacked the Holy City of Beauty with all their might, we had already captured their mother nest. As a group of pirates who had lost their mother nest and family members, they did not have the conditions to bargain at all. They were only forced to submit. They were not really on the same side as us. Only the strong have the right to make people submit. With our current strength, it was already the best situation for us to be able to make them submit. But something will happen sooner or later, won’t it?”

?

Lei Luo instinctively wanted to say a few more vicious words.

But when he saw Allie’s anxious expression, he knew that if he did not explain clearly, the problem would remain in Allie’s heart, and that would bother him for a long time.

So, he had no choice but to be patient and explain. “To be honest, what we did was indeed not aboveboard. It was also shameless. But there was nothing we could do. We lacked strength. We needed a force like the Grizzly Pirates. In order to obtain such a force, we had to resort to all means. However, such a situation will not last long. The Holy City of Beauty has a strong economic and military production capacity. As long as Morton is in charge, we will soon be much stronger than the pirates. At that time, we will have the capital to convince the pirates.”

“How are you going to convince the Grizzly Pirates? You have hurt them so deeply. How will you even get them to listen to you?”

“Do you know why I like pirates? Because pirates are always the most realistic people in the world. No matter how much they hate you, as long as you bring them the greatest benefits, they will still work for you.”

“Of course, as long as you give them a chance, they will not hesitate to throw you to the ground and eat you to the bone. The Grizzly Pirates are now crippled. They can only get the greatest benefits by following my plan and following behind us, so don’t worry. It won’t be long before the Grizzly Pirates will be completely fed up with being associated with us.”

“However, don’t you feel a chill down your spine to have such a pirate gang around you? They will eat you up the moment you get weak.”

“Since we’ve already taken this step, there’s no turning back. If we’re weak in the future, there won’t be a need to wait for the Grizzly Pirates. There will be countless others who will eat us alive long ago.”

Lei Luo turned around and looked at Allie with a smile. “So, if we want to survive, there’s only one way—forward, forward, and forward.”

“Why do we have to be so extreme? Can’t we use a slightly safer method?”

Lei Luo laughed when he heard this. “Could it be that Princess Allie is afraid?”

Allie lowered her head and was silent for a while. Then she said in a low voice, “Yes, I’m afraid...This is the first time I’ve seen so many people turn into ashes.”

Lei Luo’s smile was a little stiff. He pursed his lips, swallowed his saliva, and turned his head away.

After a while, Allie spoke, “I’ve seen Ulysses once. He’s a smart guy with smoke coming out of his head. Do you really think you can deal with him? I know him better than he knows me. I think the odds of winning are very high. The only thing that’s worth worrying about is his teacher, Strachey.”

At this point, Lei Luo shook his head emotionally.

“Most of the time, no matter how stubborn a middle-aged man is, he’s still more difficult to deal with than a genius youth.”

“You say you know Ulysses. Have you seen him before?”

“A face-to-face conversation is indeed a way to understand him, but the way to understand people is not just that.”

“All right, stop talking nonsense. Let’s get down to business. How do you plan to deal with Ulysses?”

“It’s very simple. Just adapt to the situation.”

“That’s easy for you to say. Adapt to the situation...do you think it’s that easy?”

“If you do your homework well and keep your mind steady, it’s that easy.”

“Then tell me, what kind of person is Ulysses?”

“On the surface, Ulysses seems to be a righteous, dignified, and graceful person, but in fact, his heart is filled with insecurity.”

“The coldness, anxiety, paranoia, and a certain degree of brutality brought about by this insecurity form the main part of his true character.”

Allie’s heart trembled when she heard what Lei Luo had to say, because Lord James had once given a similar evaluation to Ulysses.

Anyone who had truly come into contact with Ulysses’ heart knew how dangerous and terrifying he was.

Due to Ulysses’ talent and self-control, as well as his ability to cleverly conceal the thoughts in his heart, most people were deceived by his elegant and magnanimous appearance.

Allie did not interrupt and listened to Lei Luo seriously.

“Ulysses took great pains to maintain this image. For this reason, he deliberately put on his usual solemn appearance, making it difficult for people to get along with him for a long time. This was to keep a distance from others so that his inner world would not be spied on. In this world, the first person to fully realize Ulysses’ true personality is probably his father, King Beichen. The second person is his first instructor, Strachey. In terms of Ulysses’ personality, there was a total of 2,300 votes in the senate that ruled the empire. Among them, the 12 marquises held 1,300 votes. In other words, as long as the 12 marquises were united, they would definitely be able to control the senate. However, in reality, this was almost impossible. The 12 marquises feared each other the most, so how could they be united? Although this situation has not spread to the succession of the marquises until now, it does not mean that the hearts of the descendants of the marquises have not changed. Once the Pandora’s Box is opened, it will be hard to control. Everyone knows that the succession of the marquises is similar to those of the plutocrats and warlords. It is only a matter of time.”
