Chapter 266: Taking advantage of Stussy (2)
Stussy's answer can be described as a double entendre. It not only responded to the invitation of "The King's Shichibukai", but also showed her attitude of "intimidation" towards Profik.
Obviously, ordinary threats cannot scare this king of the underworld. On the contrary, it piqued her interest.
"There are many benefits to joining the King's Shichibukai. You only need to cooperate with the World Government. Not only will you no longer have to worry about being rewarded, but you will also be able to obtain legal business rights, and you can even cooperate with the World Government..." Profik Talk freely, as if you really want to invite the other person.
These "privileges" of the King Shichibukai are not attractive to Stussy at all. When operating in the new world, it doesn't matter whether it is legal or not. As for cooperation with the world government, Happy Street has always been carried out in secret. Perhaps the only thing that has practical significance is the so-called revocation of the bounty.
Stussy also has a bounty on his head. After all, there are so many big bosses in the underground world. If everyone is carrying a high bounty, but you, Stussy, are relaxed, it is difficult not to arouse others' speculation. However, for people of their status, offering a reward is more of an attitude, and its actual significance is quite limited.
For the kings of the underground world, unless they really offend a big shot they can't afford to offend, their lives are almost never in danger. In a really critical moment, it doesn't actually matter whether you have a bounty on your body or not.
But when acting, you have to do the whole thing.
Staring all the time is really easy to arouse suspicion. Ordinary people can detect that something is wrong, let alone the agents lurking outside the door. Even if there are just a few steps, something will go wrong. After all, the agents of the World Government are human beings among a group of human beings, and it is impossible for the slightest abnormality to escape their eyes.
Therefore, Profik chose to pretend to discuss the issue of joining Shichibukai with Stussy while also engaging in "psychological warfare" with her.
Naturally, Stussy was also "in high spirits." Unlike Profik, she was unable to conduct "sound transmission." But it doesn't matter. As a secret agent of the World Government and a hidden insider of Vegapunk, Stussy's professional skills are beyond doubt. She immediately saw that the so-called invitation from King Shichibukai was too stylized and was simply a pretense. Profic must have other purposes for finding such an excuse.
As for fear, that is absolutely impossible.
Stusy is quite confident in keeping her identity confidential. What's more, Profic has only been at sea for half a year, and has only been in the New World for a few weeks. He has no contact with her, and he doesn't even understand the rules of Happy Street. How can he know his identity?
She even felt that Profik was just bluffing. Happy Street has been operating in the New World for so many years, what has never happened? There are some who spread rumors and cause trouble unreasonably, there are those who try to force themselves into prostitution out of lust, and there are also those who fabricate facts in order to get into trouble. She doesn't care which kind of person Profek is. In short, as long as it doesn't affect her own business or the interests of the world government, it doesn't matter if she talks about it.
Taking ten thousand steps back, what would happen even if Profik knew she was CP0? Anyway, Profik is the Shichibukai, and she is CP0. After all, everyone is under the World Government. They are all "colleagues" with each other. In terms of closeness to the World Government, the Shichibukai is completely incomparable to CP0, and they are not afraid of Profik's threat.
If he goes too far, just think of a way to kill him like he did with those troublemakers in the past. The identity of the Shichibukai may indeed be a bit troublesome, but to be honest, it's really not much. Stussy is very clear about the way the World Government operates. Once it loses its value, no matter how much credit it has achieved, it will be discarded immediately.
What's more, the King's Shichibukai is not of the same mind as the World Government. No one will speak for a dead Shichibukai!
Of course, in addition to this, she has not forgotten her own job as an agent - to collect information related to Profik's abilities. As an agent of the World Government, Stussy knew a lot about Profik, but not much. In fact, due to his short time at sea, Profic's ability to be exposed to the eyes of others is quite limited. Even the world government knows very little.
This happens to be a good opportunity for agents to show off their skills.
"I hope you can seriously consider Shichibukai's invitation... If Happy Street cooperates with the World Government, we will definitely achieve a win-win situation."
On the surface, Profic is still trying every possible means to convince Stussy to join the Seven Warlords.
Secretly, he also stepped up his offensive.
【What do you think I will say to you? CP0’s identity? That kind of thing doesn't matter at all. Stusy, the person you're truly loyal to...is probably Mr. Vegapunk, right? 】
Stussy was stunned. She completely lost the ability to manage her expression. Her pupils shrank to the extreme in an instant, her heart beat wildly, and her whole body became tense.
At this moment, she was extremely glad that her back was to the door, and also extremely glad that Profic did not say these words.
Loyal to Vegapunk, lurking within the World Government... This is Stussy's biggest secret!
How could Profik know such a thing?
As a double agent, the Queen of Happy Street, and a senior CP0 agent, Stussy is used to seeing big waves. With the knowledge infused into her by the Vegapunk clone's super skills, Stussy is able to deal with various emergencies extremely well.
Even when facing the king of the underground world and the four emperors of the new world, she can remain calm and talk and laugh happily.
In decades of working as an agent, this was the first time she felt scared.
"What are you talking about?" Stussi didn't know where she showed her traces, but she had already figured out what to do - find an opportunity to make the other party relax their vigilance, and then kill him!
[I suggest you don’t act rashly. I know everything you want to do. Moreover, if you do it now, you can’t explain it yourself, right? 】
Stussy, who was about to explode, stopped instantly.
[Assaulting a king of the Shichibukai is not what the Queen of Happy Street should do. It is better to get rid of the guys outside first and then resolve the matter between us. I think it's better to use the excuse that we need to have a good talk about the King's Shichibukai. 】
"It's a very important matter. We need to have a good talk about joining the 'King Shichibukai'..."
Stussy felt helpless, but she still had to do what Profik said. She stood up, walked to the door, closed the door, and gave a signal to the corridor, then sat back down opposite Profik.
