“Great, Mr. An. I didn’t think you will sessfully catch him. You really deserve your license.” Seeing Martin in the crater, Elena, who rushed over, looked at this scene in surprise.
She didn’t believe that An would be able to catch Martin at first since Martin’s bounty was high.
Even though one can’t judge someone’s strength using his bounty, Martin’s bounty was too high for him to be not dangerous.
However, here heys in front of her, dying in a crater.
As for An, he didn’t suffer any injury, no scratch that, there wasn’t a spec of dust on his body.
“If it wasn’t for the information you provided, I wouldn’t found him, let alone catch him, Elena. After all, this guy is quite cunning.” Anughed.
“That’s true.” Elena thought about her contribution and then looked at Martin and asked: “Is he dead?”
An shook his head: “No, there is still some life in him.”
Martin didn’t look that humane anymore since he sacrificed God knows what, probably his life, to gain strength to face An.
An didn’t kill him simply because when the bounty holder dies, the bounty will be reduced by 20 to 50%. That’s he made sure that Star tinum won’t kill him.
Elena nodded and said: “Martin is worth 500 million Jenny, don’t forget my share when you get the money.”
“Don’t worry. I’m someone who keeps his promises.” An said.
Elena nodded. She trusted An as a person. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have met him offline.
“Then let’s got out of here, Mr. An. You caused a huge disturbance in the kingdom, and Martin is still someone from the Church, so the soldiers and the Church wille after you soon. If we don’t leave now, it would be hard for us to leave.”
An nodded. Although he wasn’t afraid, it would be troublesome to deal with all those people.
When An carried Martin and nned to leave with Elena, a lot of people surrounded them.
Those people seemed very hostile.
“Oh, it seems that there are a lot of people here.”
An nced at the man dressed in armor and held a spear with curiosity.
“They are members of the church and soldiers of the kingdom.” Elena frowned slightly.
The battle between Martin and Star tinum drew too much attention and destroyed quite a few buildings which let those soldiers and the church members here.
In the eyes of those people, An was suspicious.
And when they saw Martin, extremely weak and barely alive, they felt that An was a murderer.
At first, they didn’t recognize Martin, but the church member quickly recognized him and shouted: “Isn’t that Master Martin?”
“Damn it! How dare you do that to Master Martin.”
“It seems that he was the one who attacked the Church previously. We can’t let him go.”
The members of the Church looked angrily at An.
Seeing the current situation, Elena quickly exined: “You guys, listen here. Martin is a criminal with a bounty over his head. You’re all being deceived by him.”
However, when someone believed in something, they won’t listen to anyone who they didn’t know, especially when they are in a situation like the current Elena and An.
Seeing those people being unreasonable, Elena looked at Ana and asked: “Mr. An, what should we do?”
An smiled lightly: “Don’t worry, you will be fine with me here.”
At this time, the system’s voice echoed in An’s mind.
[Ding! Make a Choice]
[1: Protect Elena without killing anyone here and break through the siege safely. Reward: Paramecia fruit: Flower Flower fruit.]
[2: Disregard Elena and leave her alone. Reward: A Meito.]
[3: Remove all obstacles in your way. Reward: Paramecia Fruit: Mochi Mochi fruit.] (Katakuri’s fruit)
An thought for a bit, then chose the first option.
Although the reward for the third option was better, An wasn’t an egoist. Those people were innocent, and he won’t just kill them all for a devil fruit that he can’t even use.
Nico Robin’s fruit was good anyways.
After making his choice, An released his Conqueror’s Haki.
Except for Elena, all the people surrounding them fainted and fell.
“Eeh, what happened?”
Seeing the exaggerated scene, Elena was stunned.
“Mr. An, what did you do to them?”
Although Elena didn’t see An move, she felt that it was An who did this just now.
An waved his hand indifferently: “Don’t worry, I just knocked them out temporarily. Nothing bad will happen to them.”
While he was speaking, An received his reward from the system.
After that, An and Elena took an airship and left the kingdom.
A dayter, they arrived at a city called Kerry, in the Republic of Padokea.
“Here, this is the ce.”
An and Elena arrived at a suburban hut in the city. After opening the door, another one appeared that required a password.
After entering the password, An and Elena entered the passage.
At the end of the passage, another door appeared, and above it, there were three words, ck Market Exchange.
Yes, this ce was the ck market.
This is a secret location that most people won’t know about it or even if they knew, they won’t find it.
After entering, An handed Martin over to the staff and received his reward.
Unfortunately, because Martin suffered severe injuries, he didn’t stay alive till they got here and died on the way, so An only received 350 million Jenny.
It was a pity, but An didn’t mind.
“The next time, I should be more careful.” An thought.
After getting out, An directly transferred 100 million Jenny into Elena’s ount, which is the reward she deserved.
An wasn’t stingy to reduce the reward for Elena because his own reward was reduced.
He wanted to build trust between them since he can cooperate with her in the future.
“Then, Mr. An, see you again if there is a chance,” Elena said and took her to leave.
An nodded said nothing.
However, at this moment, the system’s voice echoed in his head.
[Ding! Make a Choice]
[1: Invite Elena to join you, and make her agree. Reward: Hitsugaya Toshiro’s Zanpakuto, Daiguren Hyorinmaru.]
[2: Let Elena go. No reward]
There is actually such a thing? I can really get Daiguren Hyorinmaru?!
Without any hesitation, An picked the first option. After all, a Zanpakuto was better than an ordinary sword or even a Meito. Furthermore, Daiguren Hyorinmaru is an ice attributed Sword, which fits An greatly.
An directly asked Elena: “Wait, Elena, are you interested in joining my organization?” … ‘Damn, that came out wrong!’
Elena was stunned for a moment before she asked in confusion: “What organization? An, aren’t you a professional hunter and belong to the hunter association? Do you want me to join the association as well? I’m fine with that, but isn’t joining require me to pass the exam and obtain a license?”
An smiled: “Sorry, I didn’t mean that. I meant I wanted you to be mypanion so that we can cooperate better in the future.”
“So that’s what you’re asking.” Seeing Elena nodding, An tentatively asked: “So, do you agree?”
Elena didn’t answer immediately and instead asked back: “What is your reason for inviting me?”
“You’re an expert in intelligence gathering, and I need someone like you. Is this good enough reason?”
“You, you need me?” Elena blushed, as she didn’t expect An to be so straightforward about this.
She thought for a bit, then nodded and said: “If you want me to be yourpanion, I can promise, but you have to do something for me first.”
An directly asked: “No problem, what do you want me to do?”
“Help me kill a guy.”
“Who?”
“His name is Helphes, a noble that I hope you can get rid of.”
Seeing Elena’s seriousness, An nodded: “No problem, it will be done.”
Although An didn’t know why Elena wanted to kill this person, he needed to do so. After all, if she agrees to be hispanion, he can get Daiguren Hyorinmaru which is his goal.
