Joseph was even more vigilant. Although he reserved his strength in the tentative fight just now, this "Aguile" also didn't use the talent and artifact of the Beelzebub Royal Family. Once we fight openly, I'm afraid I really can't keep the opponent.
Most of the royal families have strange inheritance power. For example, most of Jía's power is inherited from her father, Crown Prince Grimm. This Aguile can have the "God-Eating Mask", so he must be the master or heir of the Beelzebub Royal Family. Jía is just a down-and-out Princess Royal. Although the Beelzebub Royal Family has disappeared, the foundation accumulated for thousands of years is much deeper. "Aguile" is definitely not simple from the Intermediate Demon at the beginning to the current Demon King level. The seal is likely to be the key to unlock the inheritance power step by step, then this person's true strength is likely to be a Great Demon King or even a Demon Emperor!
What's more, the Beelzebub Royal Family reappeared after 400 years of silence. They definitely have more power and manpower! Is it going to repeat the big change 400 years ago? If that's the case, I have a lot of problems to consider.
Joseph kept a smile on his face, but his eyes were uncertain without the slightest hint of a smile.
If Chen Rui knew Joseph's thoughts, he would definitely laugh out loud: You really guessed wrong. I'm just one person.
"The" God-Eating Mask "really deserves its reputation. Although it's only the tip of the iceberg, it's enough for me to realize the power of the artifact." Joseph took a sip of wine elegantly, "I'm very curious. As one of the seven royal families of the Demon Realm, why would the Gluttony Royal Family want to cooperate with a small financial officer like me?"
"I did come here with sincerity (I came here tonight purely because I won the teleportation prize. Sincerity your ass). The previous words weren't perfunctory. I really desire the woman, Jía, but a woman is just a tool for me to satisfy a certain pleasure. What my Beelzebub Royal Family really wants is the entire Dark Moon. This desire can be further expanded to the entire Fallen Angel Empire. "
Chen Rui let out a low laugh, "The Dark Moon's food source and the western passage are all under the control of the Red Spirit. Compared with the little tricks of human trafficking in the Blue Lava Estate, the Red Spirit is the real controller of the Dark Moon. So, I decided to work with you. "
"It seems that sir knows the situation of the Dark Moon quite well. Maybe even Princess Royal Jía doesn't know as much as you do." Joseph looked curious, "Why did you choose me? And not my more capable brother, Kanita? "
"The hidden strength of the Beelzebub Family is much more powerful than you think. Not only the Dark Moon, but even the Red Spirit, I also know a lot of information. For example, the recent failure of the Scarlet Guards in Town Leia and trivial matters such as Snowden's trip to Mountain Xilang. "Chen Rui continued to bluff," To be honest, I'm not optimistic that you can bring down Kanita. Even if you bring down your brother, or Kanita brings down you, he may not be able to bring down your father. Don't tell me that Lord Josh is getting old, and it's time to hand over power. Your father is playing a game of balance. I believe you know this better than I do. If you have the power of the Beelzebub Family to support you, you can become the protagonist of this game instead of being a manipulated toy … "
Joseph listened to Chen Rui mentioning the latest intel of the Red Spirit and even Snowden's movements, and his suspicion finally began to loosen. The last sentence especially hit the nail on the head.
Joseph was scheming. Although he was tempted, he would not easily believe this kind of empty promise, "Sir Aguile, what you said is indeed true, but judging from today's experience, you seem to be here to avoid disaster, not for the so-called sincerity. As the sheriff of the Dark Moon, I have the responsibility and obligation to tell you to the lord, Princess Jía. "
"Yes, I did sneak into the palace to steal the artifact fragment, but I was chased by Jía. Her strength is one realm higher than you and me. Unfortunately, she couldn't kill me with all her strength. She even restored my complete artifact, and I believe that even my identity as the leader of the Cloak Gang hasn't been exposed. " Chen Rui shook his head, and his voice was full of confidence. "This is enough to prove my personal ability … If your last sentence is serious, then I feel sorry for you. You gave up a real shortcut, and at the same time, you added an enemy who should have been your biggest ally."
"Sir Aguile is so sure to achieve your goal?" Joseph frowned and asked. If Jía didn't notice Aguile's identity, then lurking beside Jía as the person in charge of the imperial guards reserve was definitely a killer move.
"The current Fallen Angel Empire is no longer the Fallen Angel Empire 400 years ago. The biggest enemy of our Beelzebub Family, the Lord of Midnight Sun, is no longer here. Do you remember the King of Beelzebub who fought fiercely with Midnight Sun 400 years ago? With the complete God-Eating Mask, plus his current strength, it is enough to compete with the Bloody Empire's Raizen! "
"Glorfin. Beelzebub?" Joseph was secretly shocked. Glorfin did not die in the hands of Midnight Sun back then. After 400 years of training and lurking, I'm afraid it's not a lie to say that he can compete with Raizen.
Joseph didn't think that these were all Chen Rui's nonsense. Glorfin had long lost his body underground, and now his soul was swallowed by Chen Rui. He was gone. How could he have the strength to fight against Raizen?
"With the lesson from 400 years ago, the plan before we launched this time will be more perfect. If it weren't for the artifact being too important this time, we wouldn't show our traces so easily. However, now that the artifact is in our hands, many plans have begun to be launched. Even if we expose our identity, it's worth it … This conversation can only end here. You know enough. "As Chen Rui said, he stood up and pretended to be ready to turn hostile, but his heart was secretly beating fast.
"Wait! If the relationship between us is changed to that of partners, can we continue to talk? "Joseph pondered for a while and stood up.
"Let's make it simple. One sentence. The Red Spirit is yours. I want the Dark Moon and the Blue Lava Estate. Moreover, once we start to launch a full-scale attack, you must be the first to respond publicly in the Red Spirit Estate. " Chen Rui glanced at Joseph, "If you agree, we are allies. I believe you have considered it for a long time just now. I want to hear your choice now."
Although Chen Rui's words were a bit forceful, it was more credible in Joseph's ears. After all, he was backed by a Demon Overlord. From the words of this "Aguile. Beelzebub", he could tell that the Beelzebub Royal Family had been planning for hundreds of years this time. It would be fine if they didn't move, but once they moved, it would definitely be earth-shaking.
Before that, he could just use the power of Beelzebub to defeat his younger brother, Kanita, and his father, Josh, to fulfill his long-cherished wish. At that time, whether he chose to truly surrender or stab his allies in the back, the initiative was completely in the hands of him, the new Red Spirit Lord.
Joseph's idea was good, but unfortunately, even the name "Aguile. Beelzebub" was fake. He had wasted a lot of brain cells thinking in vain.
"My friend, Joseph Alvin is willing to offer sincere friendship to you." Joseph raised his glass and expressed his attitude.
"Very well, Aguile. Beelzebub is willing to accept and offer his friendship." Chen Rui also raised his glass symbolically. "As a friend, I have a personal request. Don't touch the Princess Royal for the time being. I want to do it myself. Of course, I won't interfere with your hobbies."
"We will all get what we want, my friend." Joseph smiled ambiguously. "Don't forget a saying in our Demon Realm, the more beautiful the flower, the more poisonous it is."
"But there is another saying, the stronger the wine, the more fragrant it is." Chen Rui also said. Both of them laughed at the same time. Perhaps they were sneering in their hearts at the same time.
Chen Rui succeeded in tricking the wolf empty-handed this time. The most important thing was to take advantage of the situation. He turned the originally unfavorable situation (such as Jía's misunderstanding and pursuit) into an advantage to gain Joseph's trust. However, to further trap this wolf, he still needed a suitable sweetness.
At this time, Reus had already dealt with the corpse. He bowed to Joseph, "Just now, the imperial guards commander, Kaguron came here to ask about the suspect. I was afraid of disturbing sir's affairs, so I sent him away without authorization."
Joseph nodded, "You did the right thing. Now, sir and I are a true ally."
"In order to show my sincerity, I will give you a precious gift, my friend." Chen Rui took out something, "But sincerity is mutual. I also need your gift in return."
Joseph was slightly surprised. He looked at Chen Rui's palm that was slowly opened. After looking at it for a while, his face suddenly changed. He could no longer maintain his composure. His eyes instantly became extremely hot, "Devil fruit!"
Reus and Vasasha were both taken aback. Vasasha was surprised by the devil fruit, while Reus was surprised by the identity of the masked man. Now, he was sure that this "Beelzebub Royal Family" that Princess Jía ordered the entire city to search for was his master!
Joseph took a deep breath and gradually regained his composure, but his mind was extremely excited. One of the fundamental reasons why his father valued Kanita more than him was his talent and strength. Kanita was extremely talented and was close to the level of Great Demon King, but he was still stuck at the middle level of Demon King. If he could get the devil fruit, the hope of breaking through the bottleneck would greatly increase, and the chance of becoming a Great Demon King would greatly increase. In any case, his own strength was the most important and the most real!
Joseph suppressed the excitement in his heart and asked, "This gift is really precious. My friend, what sincerity do I need to give to satisfy you?"
"Obsidian Heart and requiem fruit." Although it was a pity to let Joseph get the devil fruit, for Chen Rui, nothing was more important than the Obsidian Heart. Even if Joseph broke through to the later stage of Demon King or even Great Demon King, he had complete confidence to surpass this enemy.
Joseph pondered, "These two are extremely rare treasures. I have one Obsidian Heart, but it is hidden in the Red Spirit Estate. I will leave in person tomorrow, and I can return in 3 days at the earliest. However, requiem fruit … I really don't have it. Can it be replaced with something else? For example, magic materials or equipment? "
When Chen Rui heard that there was a whereabouts of the Obsidian Heart, he was excited. Fortunately, he was wearing the "God-Eating Mask" on his face, so he couldn't see any clues. Instead, he saw Joseph's unconcealable eagerness. He sneered secretly and said, "I remember you said that one of the conditions of our cooperation is that I can use your resources to lift the seal. Aren't magic materials and equipment the preferential treatment that I originally enjoy?"
Joseph secretly scolded this guy for being greedy, but he was determined to get the devil fruit. He couldn't show any dissatisfaction at the moment, so he agreed immediately, "No problem! Royce is in charge of the magic store. This time, the magic store has been rebuilt. You can look for him! However, I can send someone to inquire about the requiem fruit … "
Chen Rui knew that Joseph really didn't have the requiem fruit, so he sighed, "Since it is a symbol of friendship, I don't want to make it difficult for you. Let's change it to something else. Just the Obsidian Heart and …"
Chen Rui's gaze swept past Royce and fell on Vasasha. He pointed at the glamorous female Great Demon, "I want this woman!"
