Eunuch, do you really know these martial arts?

He's now actually offering to sell arms to Japan; he must have other schemes up his sleeve.

However, both An Yang and An Ye knew perfectly well that Jiang Nian would never tell them the real reason.

"Sure. Since you're planning to do business with Japan, I'll make the arrangements. Do you need me to go with you? Also, what are you planning to sell to Japan? They don't care for ordinary weapons; the US provides quite a bit of military support to Japan."

After thinking about it carefully for a while, An Yang agreed to Jiang Nian's request.

Having learned from Bharata's experience, An Yang knew that Jiang Nian must have already made his own plans. If he disagreed, Jiang Nian might cause even more trouble.

Since Jiang Nian intends to use the identity of the Shadow Organization's arms dealer, he will definitely not diminish the reputation of the Shadow Organization on the surface.

However, after careful consideration, An Yang couldn't help but offer a small suggestion—to have him come along. At least, if anything went wrong, he could find a way to salvage the situation. If it were Jiang Nian, An Yang felt he would probably just wash his hands of the Shadow's identity.

"Zhou Zhou will be coming with me, and Dark Eagle has also sent someone else to accompany us, so nothing will happen."

Just kidding, if An Yang went with him, his actions would be greatly restricted. As for Zhou Zhou, Jiang Nian didn't care about him at all.

"What? You just said someone was going with them?"

An Yang doubted he had misheard. Otherwise, how could he have heard Zhou Zhou's name?
Zhou Zhou is an agent of Dark Eagle. Given the irreconcilable conflict between Dark Eagle and Jiang Nian, why would Dark Eagle willingly send someone to accompany Jiang Nian to Japan?

After exchanging a glance with Dark Night, An Yang stroked his chin and began to ponder seriously—what exactly happened the night Dark Eagle went to see the doctor?

After suspecting that Jiang Nian had attacked Dark Eagle, An Yang secretly checked the surveillance footage, but there was nothing wrong with it.

Undeterred, An Yang even brought in An Yi. An Yi, being a robot, should be the most sensitive.

An Yi stated that Jiang Nian stayed in his room the entire night and never went out.

An Yang didn't believe his guess was wrong, but he couldn't find any evidence to prove it.

But now, Jiang Nian has said it himself: Dark Eagle sent Zhou Zhou to Japan with him.

If something hadn't happened between Dark Eagle and Jiang Nian, why would Dark Eagle have sent his own people to follow Jiang Nian?

You should know that even Anyang himself doesn't have as many people as Anying in Japan.

Jiang Nian really found the right person.

“It’s Zhou Zhou. Zhou Zhou and I are old acquaintances. Dark Eagle sent him with me to Japan. Now you can all rest assured, right?”

Jiang Nian repeated his words slowly and deliberately.

This time, An Yang and An Ye heard it clearly; it was indeed An Ying who sent Zhou Zhou to follow them.

“Now that Zhou Zhou is going with you, I’m relieved. But you still haven’t told me what kind of weapons you plan to sell to Japan. We need to prepare in advance.”

An Yang planned to ask An Ying privately to get to the bottom of things, but Jiang Nian's trip to Japan to sell weapons was equally important.

They're not a charity; everything they do costs money. Jiang Nian is definitely going to come back with some money on this trip.

"I don't have any plans yet. I'll see when I get to Japan. Their naval defenses have never been very good. Maybe I'll consider selling them a couple of shells to play around with."

Jiang Nian casually shrugged; he really hadn't thought about that yet.

The previous deal between Wang Ba and Japan involved a large quantity of sniper rifles. Jiang Nian had no intention of selling them any more sniper rifles—they were too troublesome to modify. Furthermore, if the performance of the sniper rifles changed, Japan would definitely have something to say. Jiang Nian didn't want the Japanese to suspect the Shadow organization.

Shadow is now ostensibly an arms dealer, an identity that is very important to Jiang Nian.

"..."

Jiang Nian really dares to say that!

He actually dared to say he'd just casually sell a couple of artillery shells to someone to play with?
Is this something you can just play with casually?
For a moment, neither An Yang nor An Ye knew what to say.

"Well, even though we have artillery shells, if you want to sell them to Japan, don't you need to prepare them in advance?"

An Ye hesitated for a moment, feeling that Jiang Nian was being too frivolous.

In fact, Jiang Nian was just testing An Yang and An Ye.

He knew the Shadow Organization was extremely powerful. In terms of weaponry, they could even produce tanks; they could probably also produce artillery shells and missiles.

If Jiang Nian was only guessing before, now that he has received a definite answer from An Ye, he has a different idea about the Shadow Organization.

"There's no need to prepare in advance. I'm not sure how long I'll be staying in Japan yet. Once I've finalized the business deal with Japan, I'll contact you to ship the goods, and there will definitely be enough time."

Dark Night's words also revealed another piece of information to some extent—they do have stock of artillery shells.

I don't know what they're going to do with these weapons.

They weren't planning to conquer the world right now, yet they still had so much heavy equipment stored up. Aren't they afraid that one day they might accidentally blow up their own base first?

Jiang Nian decided not to complain anymore.

Zhou Zhou had previously stated that their organization aimed to conquer the entire world.

Jiang Nian thought at the time that organizations with such dreams were pretty immature.

It can only be said that their organization has abundant resources. But given the abilities of someone like Dark Eagle, who holds power, let alone conquering the world, he probably couldn't even conquer Bharata.

"Since you've already made your own plans, then we won't interfere anymore. You can handle it yourself!"

An Yang made the final decision.

He now understood that Jiang Nian had come to see him simply to let him know. With Zhou Zhou around, even without his intervention, the people on Dark Eagle's side would have made the arrangements for Jiang Nian.

"Oh, right, regarding the gold we agreed on last time that was also registered in my name, I'll take it with me this time. I'll arrange for it to be sent back to China. I'm just letting you know in advance that you don't need to put that gold into storage."

Before leaving the room in the Dark Ocean, Jiang Nian remembered this matter. This gold was rightfully his; he couldn't leave it here.

An Yang's lips twitched, but he didn't say anything and simply closed the door.

He was afraid that if he said another word to Jiang Nian, he would be so angry that he would die.

What An Yang and An Ye thought and did was completely outside of Jiang Nian's consideration.

He just needs to wait for everyone else to get everything ready before he can set off.

In three days, Zhou Zhou had everything prepared.

During this time, Zhou Zhou had met with An Yang and An Ye several times. These two leaders kept asking Zhou Zhou questions about the Dark Eagle organization, and repeatedly told him that after arriving in Japan, whatever Jiang Nian wanted to do, as long as it did not harm the interests of the Shadow Organization, he should do everything in accordance with Jiang Nian's wishes.

Zhou Zhou is now quite helpless.

Dark Eagle only told him to follow Jiang Nian, and said nothing else. Moreover, Dark Eagle is currently in complete seclusion, locking himself in his room and refusing to see anyone.

No matter what An Yang and An Ye said, An Ying refused to see them. So, Zhou Zhou was the only one who suffered.

After boarding the cruise ship, Zhou Zhou let out a long sigh of relief.

He felt he could finally have some peace and quiet, no longer having to face the earnest admonitions of his two bosses.

These past two days, he's been nagging on and on.

As the cruise ship sailed at sea, Jiang Nian stayed in his room, pinpointing the exact location of the Shadow Organization.

It was as if a thin layer of mist was covering the small island, and no matter how Jiang Nian tried to locate it, he could only pinpoint a very distant location.

"Dear host, there is a large extraterrestrial meteorite inside the Shadow Base that serves as its energy source, while also blocking all signals. Although the network is currently working, that location has essentially been hidden and cannot be accurately located."

The system then appeared and earnestly explained the problem to Jiang Nian.

What is that? A meteorite from outer space!
Jiang Nian knew that the green crystal that the system had insisted on obtaining was actually a meteorite from outer space.

Jiang Nian knew that the Shadow Organization possessed extraterrestrial meteorites, but he didn't know that these meteorites had such immense power that they could hide the entire island where the base was located.

It seems this meteorite from outer space is indeed a valuable item.

At the very least, in certain situations, even the system seems significantly weaker when facing the power of extraterrestrial meteorites.

Zhou Zhou tossed and turned on her bed in her room, feeling extremely uncomfortable all over.

This wasn't his first time on a cruise ship, so it couldn't be seasickness.

But inexplicably, after waking up today, he started to feel that something was wrong with his whole body.

Even now, he can't even stand up.

A faint, persistent pain spread from my chest to my entire body.

Zhou Zhou pounded his chest repeatedly with his fists.

He's about to collapse.

He suspected that he had been infected by a Gu worm.

Zhou Zhou was a master at refining Gu worms. If someone had told him before that he would be poisoned by Gu, he would never have believed it.

But now, Zhou Zhou is beginning to doubt himself.

A figure flashed through his mind.

Jiang Nian must have poisoned herself.

He wanted to go find Jiang Nian, but he had no strength left in his body, and Zhou Zhou couldn't do it.

That night, Zhou Zhou slowly endured the torment of pain.

Many times, he even doubted whether he could hold on.

Later, Zhou Zhou bit his lip until it bled, swallowing his own blood, before he finally realized that Jiang Nian wouldn't let him die. Because after arriving in Sakura Country, Jiang Nian would still need Zhou Zhou to do things for him.

Zhou Zhou was completely convinced by this show of force.

In truth, what could he do even if he was dissatisfied? Nowadays, even the three powerful figures have become somewhat obsequious towards Jiang Nian. He was just a minor protector; what did he have to compete with Jiang Nian?

The pain gradually subsided after daybreak.

Zhou Zhou dragged his extremely weak body step by step to the door of Jiang Nian's room.

He didn't even dare to knock on the door, and could only wait quietly. Anyway, Jiang Nian would go to the deck to sunbathe when the sun came out, so he wouldn't have to wait too long.

As soon as Jiang Nian opened the door, she saw Zhou Zhou standing there, his face ashen. Zhou Zhou had a very obvious wound on his lip. There were no women on this cruise ship; could it be that Zhou Zhou couldn't hold on and had done something he shouldn't have?

"Mr. Jiang Nian, please, remove the poison from my body!"

Zhou Zhou slowly knelt down before Jiang Nian. The torment of the Gu poison had left him terribly haggard. He couldn't cure the Gu poison Jiang Nian had inflicted, and he had no other choice but to beg Jiang Nian for help.

"Gu poison? What does that mean?"

Jiang Nian was completely confused, not understanding what Zhou Zhou was up to this time.

Why would he use a Gu poison on Zhou Zhou if he had nothing better to do?
Besides, the cost of exchanging Gu worms from the system is not low. Zhou Zhou is not yet worthy of Jiang Nian paying such a high price for him.

"Mr. Jiang Nian, wasn't the Gu poison in my body something you put there?"

Zhou Zhou looked at Jiang Nian in surprise. Apart from Jiang Nian, he didn't think anyone else would dare to use Gu poison on him.

"Why would I poison you with Gu? I don't study Gu worms. Besides, you're supposed to do things for me now. Would I poison you with Gu for no reason?"

Jiang Nian felt that Zhou Zhou was a very steady and intelligent person before he returned to their base, so how did he become such an idiot now?
Jiang Nian wouldn't do anything that wouldn't bring him any benefit.

Besides, if you accidentally poison Zhou Zhou and it goes too far and kills him, who will do your job then?

Many people accompanied Jiang Nian to Japan, but Zhou Zhou was the one Jiang Nian knew best. Whenever he needed something done, Zhou Zhou would naturally run errands for him.

Zhou Zhou's face was already pale, and after hearing what Jiang Nian said, her face looked even worse.

How is this possible?
If it wasn't Jiang Nian who poisoned him, then who was it?
Within the Shadow Organization, there are very few people skilled in Gu poison, and Zhou Zhou is the most skilled. The fact that he can't cure the Gu poison he's afflicted with means that the person who poisoned him is far more capable than Zhou Zhou.

My body swayed slightly. If that were the case, there must have been a traitor within the organization.

At this moment, Zhou Zhou dared not think any further.

If there really is a mole, what should I do now?

Jiang Nian was completely unconcerned about Zhou Zhou's inner turmoil.

However, there is one issue that he is quite concerned about.

"If there really is a traitor among you, can the organization continue to exist?"

Currently, Jiang Nian relies on the Shadow Organization to travel internationally. If something were to happen to the Shadow Organization, Jiang Nian feels it would cause him considerable trouble.

After all, you can't just use your original identity, can you?

I'm afraid that by then, the top leaders in China will no longer be able to allow Jiang Nian to travel freely on the international stage.

Jiang Nian sometimes felt that joining the Shadow Organization was actually a good thing for him. After all, it hadn't prevented him from improving some of China's weapons and equipment. (End of Chapter)
