Chapter -17 - 52: Negotiating with Marines (1/2)

One Week Later

Not far away from Errege, a Marines' ship were navigating closer to them. This ship was lead by Vice Admiral Tsuru with order from Sengoku to negotiate with Narmi.

Under Narmi's perception, he noticed who was on the ship and didn't make a move. Instead, he continue to relax with a leisurely attitude. Robin and the others saw him like that and just let him be, as they knew if he didn't made a move then it wasn't their enemy.

Although Tsuru is wise and strong, she still had some fear as this was Narmi Amsi that she need to face. But seeing Narmi didn't do anything, she felt relaxed for a bit.

After a few minutes, both if the ship had close their distance and made a stop. Tsuru stand on the deck and called for Narmi.

”Devil King Narmi, I am Vice Admiral Tsuru. I come under the order of Fleet Admiral Sengoku to negotiate on terms with you.” Tsuru stated

”Vice Admiral Tsuru. Great Staff Officer Tsuru, the wise and knowledgeable one among the Marines. I presume the Marines had taken their stands on matters about me, am I right?”

”Yes, and that's why I am here to negotiate with you.”

”Very well. Luckily the Marines had sent you to negotiate with me. If it were to be someone else, I'm afraid I would had made my move on them.” Narmi said lightly

”Why did you say that?” Tsuru asked vigilantly.

”Well, you are among the Marines that didn't follow the Absolute Justice. You are wise and worth my time to have a chat with. I didn't want to have a talk with someone who despite their bad conditions, still looked down upon me.”

Narmi then proceeded to make an ice platform in between their ships. This way the didn't need to went to any of their counterpart's ship. After that, he walk onto the platform and wait for Tsuru to walk onto it.

Noticing that Narmi didn't hold any hostile intention, she brought one of her subordinates to accompany her on the platform.

”Bringing a companion?”

”I still need to take some precautions. I am not your match after all.”
