Black Label Union #2(2)

The young man with an innocent face was a guild leader, looking straight at Rockefeller with his head held high.

The Union representative unleashed his ferocity from the past, without holding back, towards the young guild leader who seemed to have lost his fear.

"You don't seem to understand the current situation, do you?"

Facing the Union representative, Rockefeller just showed a faint smile.

"No, I fully understand why you came here, and I don't not know why you're angry with me."

The Union representative began to tremble, thinking about his soldiers outside the store.

"If you're getting arrogant with those insignificant soldiers outside, it would be wise to change your bad thoughts quickly."

"Is that so?"

"That's what I'm saying. In the past, I would have just grabbed the heads of people like you and crushed them with my bare hands. Then, I would have displayed the headless corpse in a reef area where ships pass by frequently, along with my symbolic flag."

His infamous title as the Pirate King was well-known within Black Label.

However, even with those words, Rockefeller didn't even blink and just continued to smile.

"I see. I don't know why someone like you, who used to do that, is now leading the Banco Union. You should have just continued what you were good at."

"What? This brat is really something."

Ignoring Warren, Rockefeller walked over to a nearby sofa and sat down.

"Come and sit down. How long are you going to introduce yourself?"

He was too arrogant.

In front of the once-called nightmare of the sea, the Pirate King, the Union representative's anger reached the top of his head, and he began to move to take care of Rockefeller himself.

'Does he think I'm a pushover because I'm on land now? This young brat. I will show him what happens when he messes with the wrong person...'

But blocking the guild leader's path was none other than Rockefeller's assistant, Ricardo.

"Who are you?"

Facing Ricardo, who had somewhat arrogantly blocked his path, the Union representative growled in anger. Ricardo thought to himself.

'Before I met Rockefeller, I thought all Banco Union representatives were like this, spoiled brats. After all, it's only natural for flies to swarm where there's the smell of money.'

"Please have a seat across from me, and I will serve you some warm tea soon."

Tea in this situation?

To the Union representative, it was like a sound he couldn't even hear.

"What kind of tea! Do you think tea can pass through my throat right now?"

Rockefeller, who didn't even bother looking at the angry Union representative, lowered his head.

'You don't recognize your master... Well, if you’re wanting to die, I won't be able to do anything.'

As expected?

The Union representative, who had just been blocking his assistant's path a moment ago, suddenly had his pupils dilate.

In his head, the voice echoing brought back memories of his previous nightmare.

'H-How...'

Ricardo spoke again to the Union representative.

"Please have a seat. I will bring the tea shortly."

The Union representative, trying his best not to show any emotions, cautiously followed Ricardo's instructions and sat down facing Rockefeller.

And he felt relieved inside.

'Sure enough, it's Ismail. He's been watching everything from nearby.'

Although he couldn't tell where the whisper had come from, one thing was certain: Ismail was involved in this matter.

'Then I didn't need to come all the way here and intervene, right? Ismail's side will take care of everything anyway.'josei

As far as he knew, the Black Label Union was a great source of money for the Ismail family.

Would the Ismail family really sit still when their source of money was in trouble?

'Of course not. Absolutely not.'

"Ahem! I apologize for causing a commotion just now. Due to my background, I sometimes unknowingly show my old habits."

Suddenly, the Union representative changed his attitude, and Rockefeller didn't seem to care much about it.

Rockefeller remained unfazed even as the Union representative suddenly changed his attitude.

'It was just a matter of cost. If it had been a real problem, I could have called Lee Han. Besides, what kind of problem could arise with the Ismail family watching from the sidelines?'

"As expected of a union representative, your actions aren't all that low-class. If you were like your old self, I wouldn't have even bothered dealing with you at this table."

Although it was somewhat provocative, the Union representative unexpectedly wore an ill-fitting smile.

'No need to worry about someone who's going to die soon anyway. Might as well play along since I'm here.'

"I've been off the boat for so long. I can't keep fooling around like a fool forever. So, your name is..."

Rockefeller kindly informed the Union representative, who didn't even know his own name, with a smiling face.

"Rockefeller Rothsmedici."

"Ah, it's Lord Rockefeller. I heard some kid became the guild leader out of nowhere, so I didn't bother remembering the name."

The Union representative looked at Rockefeller with a grin, as if to ridicule him.

'This young brat has no fear.'

"You've reached such a high position at a young age. That's truly impressive."

Rockefeller replied with a smile.

"What's so remarkable about me? Someone like me is nothing compared to our Lord Warren, who spent his whole life smelling the stench of fish and engaging in piracy. You became the union representative thanks to the title bestowed upon you by the royal family when it seemed impossible to handle you. You’re much more remarkable, isn't it?"

"Ha ha ha..."

Warren tried his best to not care and laugh, but at this moment, his eyebrows fiercely twitched.

'This bastard has quite the art of talking. I wonder what he relies on to do that. At least I know he's not normal.'
