Sword of the pirate king

The next day, in front of the auditorium of the Siani royal family, a group of officials dressed in Siani's traditional sacrificial costumes surrounded Budiono, who was slowly pacing in front, and walked into the mourning hall silently.

After some cumbersome rituals, the officials began to worship one by one. If you look carefully, you can find that only a small number of officials have sad expressions on their faces, and most of them are hypocritical and extremely contrived.

Most of them were expressionless, not showing their mountains or showing their water, and the crowd was divided into three factions, each headed by a powerful official in the country.

The invisible struggle between factions even spread to the order of worshiping the old king. The silent gunpowder filled the air, and the treacherous place was no less than the battlefield.

Budiono turned around, glanced at many officials with ulterior motives, and sneered in his heart. Seeing their indifference, he suddenly felt a burst of sadness.

He asked himself that the old king treated them well, why couldn't he see any affection in their eyes?

"Your Majesty, the death of King Jokowi is indeed a very sad thing, but the country still needs to continue to run. Now that Prime Minister Rahman is sick in bed, and you are too young, you must have no experience in handling state affairs... "

One of the leading officials took a step forward, showing an awe-inspiring expression for the sake of the country, but it actually implied a threat.

"...for the stability of the country and the happiness of the people, please Your Majesty decide on a new Prime Minister as soon as possible!"

Officials from the other two rival factions looked at each other and agreed.

This is not the time to fight each other and tear down the stage. It is the right thing to force Budiono to appoint a new prime minister. If one person is not enough, then add two more. The three of them are enough to represent [-]% of the officials. Without their support, the whole The country's long-distance transfer is almost paralyzed.

"I have to investigate the matter of the new prime minister for a while..."

Budiono said indifferently, he was not intimidated by these three aggressive ministers at all.

"Your Majesty, you have to think clearly..."

The Minister of Finance said, "Now the country is at the peak of construction, and there are a lot of financial affairs that need to be reported to the Prime Minister and handled by him every day. Only then can I make specific arrangements with the Prime Minister's approval. But it slowed down, over time, people's dissatisfaction accumulated, and I'm afraid there will be trouble..."

"Yes, Your Majesty." The Marshal of the army with the military badge on his shoulder said, "A few days ago, the army's salary was not paid in time, and the soldiers under him almost rioted. It was the old man who put in a lot of effort to suppress it, but it's hard to say next time... ..."

And the deputy prime minister talked on and on for [-] minutes, explaining the inappropriateness of not establishing a new prime minister from all aspects, as if this matter was not settled today, and the kingdom of Siani would collapse the next day.

"I said, I need to think again!"

Budiono raised his voice, and his immature voice was full of suppressed anger, but in the eyes of the three ministers, this was nothing more than a stubborn and last struggle.

The three of them are determined, and today they are going to temporarily put an end to the power struggle. How could they stop because of Budiono's words.

In their eyes, Budiono's opinion is just a child's rambling and has no effect. Only the written letter of appointment has value.

"I think King Budiono's words make sense."

A strange voice came from behind them, which immediately aroused the displeasure of the three ministers, who turned around and shouted loudly.

"Who are you, it's your turn to talk nonsense here?"

"Hmph, are the royal guards asleep? How come any idler can break into the king's funeral, why don't you hurry and arrest him!"

"I suspect that this person is trying to steal state secrets, catch him and torture him!"

As they were talking, the three ministers stopped slowly. Their backs were dripping with sweat, their eyes were erratic, they looked at each other, and they communicated rapidly, all showing twisted and flattering smiles.

"Haha, who was I at the time? It turned out to be Master Tianhuo who saved our country!"

"Look at my mouth, it should be hit! I didn't recognize you, how offended!"

"Master Tianhuo hasn't seen you for a long time, and it seems that his strength has become much stronger. He is really a young talent with a bright future!"

A series of flattery came over, even Noah, who had seen a lot of strong winds and waves, blushed. Fortunately, he was blocked by the oxygen mask and did not show it, otherwise these three old things with no integrity would blow even more. vigorously.

As a small country that has just been freed from the rebellion, facing the rising star of a powerful force like the navy, who is still the hero who saved the country, even the king can't stand up.

In the final analysis, strength speaks for itself above the sea, and the officials present all understand how strong this young navy is in front of them.

The newspaper they read yesterday clearly stated that they were evenly matched to be able to fight the thunder fruit capable person who killed the top cadre of the Don Quixote family, which was beyond their imagination.

Not to mention that the key partner of the country's revival, Golden Sea Road, has a close relationship with Tianhuo. Without the support of Skyfire, Golden Sea Road may cut off trade links with Siani, which makes the Minister of Finance panic. This is Siani's biggest Rich man, without the golden sea route, how can he put money in his pocket, how can he buy off the younger brother?
The marshal was even more panicked. The army under his hands was beaten to pieces by this navy monster, and the shadows were shot out. The sea of ​​​​people tactic is not effective for people of this level. The soldiers would kneel down and surrender, and then bring themselves tied up and brought to them.

The deputy prime minister was also sweating coldly. The biggest achievement that promoted him to become the prime minister was to assist the navy to build a super fortress that radiated several surrounding countries and islands. Fortunately, the fortress has been built to less than half, and the person who advocated the construction of the fortress was first offended. .

He had more contact with Lieutenant General Flying Squirrel, who supervised the construction of the fortress. Under the insinuation of the deputy prime minister, he knew much more about Noah than the other two. It was because of this that he seemed even more desperate. The other party was simply a monster.

"Prime Minister Rahman's body cannot bear the heavy burden. This is an indisputable fact. The appointment of a new prime minister really needs to be put on the agenda, but..."

Noah said slowly.

"Just what?"

The three ministers asked questions together, with an imperceptible hope flashing in their eyes.

"The three of you all have the qualifications to become the prime minister, but there is only one position as the prime minister. Is it necessary to divide the power of the prime minister into three equally for you? I don't think you will agree."

"So, I will entrust Lieutenant General Flying Squirrel to be the judge. Within half a year, we will see which of the three of you has made the greatest contribution to the country, and the winner will be the Prime Minister."

"Who is against it?"

Noah said, his hand seemingly inadvertently pressed on the hilt of the sword.
