For what?

The twelve earthly branches?

Now that there is one less position, Long can naturally replace Journey to the West.

Invisibly, Yorkshire seemed to see a big hand reaching out to the throne that symbolized the Hunter Association.

She sat back down in her chair.

What a failure... She didn't understand everything clearly and just rushed forward, making herself look like a clown.

In addition, what Long just said that she couldn't beat Pariston made Yorkshire want to find a hole to crawl into.

He also knows?

Suddenly, Yorkshire looked at the calm Pariston.

The man noticed her gaze, turned his head and smiled.

asshole!

Seeing this, Yorkshire seemed about to cry.

"Now that things have come to an end, considering the circumstances of Journey to the West... Oboro, you will..." Suddenly, Netero said softly.

Everyone knew what the president was going to say...and this time, no one else's opinions were sought, it was a direct appointment.

"I'm sorry, President. I don't want to become one of the twelve earthly branches. You should find someone else."

The words are astonishing.

The Yorkshire Terrier, who had originally lowered his head, suddenly raised his head with an incredible look on his face.

Everyone else was also surprised.

Only Jin Fulishi looked at Long with a serious expression.

Pariston also saw what cards Long was playing...

"This guy... has such a big appetite!"

Jin said secretly.

From the current perspective, the first match between Pariston and Long will most likely end in a draw.

Pariston must have gotten what he wanted, but he couldn't take advantage of the situation to add insult to injury.

Want to stop it?

But I'm afraid it's useless to stop...

Jin looked at Netero again and frowned.

Chapter 132 Different Destinies

Netero was also surprised.

The old man expected that this time, Long would agree.

"Um…"

The president nodded and said, "I understand your attitude, but... whether or not to become one of the twelve earthly branches is not something you can decide."

"If you insist on doing this, then I will also be willful."

Hazy smiled.

capricious?

Netero paused holding the teacup.

The Dark Continent?

"I really have no interest in power. It's too troublesome and a waste of time." Long added.

His meaning is obvious, which is replacement.

Take back your thoughts. I won't go to the Dark Continent to cause trouble.

In the eyes of others, Long's repeated rejection of the position of the Twelve Earthly Branches made his words quite convincing... He really didn't want to get involved in the management of the association.

Could it be that... they all misunderstood Long?

Yorkshire read.

Jin’s judgment of Long couldn’t be wrong. What was this man planning?

If he wanted to gain greater power, then above the twelve zodiac signs, there would only be the president... but wanting to replace Netero was simply a fantasy.

"Okay, then I will respect your decision."

The old man pondered for a moment and spoke slowly.

"If there's nothing wrong, I'll leave first."

Seeing this, Long waved his hand and walked out under everyone's gaze.

"I'm leaving too."

Jinfulis then stood up and followed him out.

Gailu looked at the expressions of the other twelve Earthly Branches and realized that what Long said was right. Even if he killed Xiyou, there was no need to worry about any consequences.

What is the secret that Long is talking about?

……

On the other side, Long stepped into the elevator with a smile on his face.

Before the elevator door closed, it was stopped by a hand.

Jinfulix walked in.

Then the elevator began to descend.

In the small space, the two of them sat in silence, and the atmosphere was somewhat quiet.

After a moment, Jin was the first to speak. Without looking at Long, he asked directly, "Is the president in danger?"

"How do I know this?"

Long laughed.

"Next, you should publicize your image of being honest, kind and righteous, right? You have rejected the seats of the Twelve Earthly Branches twice in a row. You have great strength and are willing to help newcomers in the association... In addition, the Fields family has been deploying newcomers to the association in recent years. Although the number is not many, it is enough."

Jin looked at the blurred face of Long reflected on the metal plate of the elevator and said calmly, "For the hunters below... if they don't like the image of being powerful and approachable, there is no reason not to support it! You can take this opportunity to win over a large number of people... After all, many people hate those who stand above them and look down on them."

"That's what you said, I didn't admit it."

Hazy teased.

"What I can't understand is that you gave up the Twelve Earthly Branches just to pursue a bigger piece of the pie. There is nothing else you care about except the position of president... But it is impossible for you to replace the president. You did it anyway, which only shows... that you are sure that the president will step down due to some circumstances."

"And from what I know about the president, no matter how much he trusts you, he will never hand over the association to you, or make any agreement with you... Under normal circumstances, your plan is doomed to fail. However... All your actions are purposeful and will not fail... Therefore, the president is in danger."

With a ding, the elevator reached the bottom.

Long stepped out of the elevator and patted Jin on the shoulder, "Don't think about it. Do you think there is anyone in this world who can kill the old man?"

“I’m really not interested in power.”

After he finished speaking, one of his eyes revealed from the side of his sunglasses and blinked at Jin.

The present is far away.

"Yes, you are not interested in power, but you admire strength very much." Jin thought to himself.

Sometimes, the further away from power you are, the easier it is to get to the top.

Jin had no doubt that once the position of president became vacant, the first successor chosen by the grassroots hunters would be Long.

In the eyes of outsiders, Long is the "cleanest".

"Difficult to handle..."

Jinfulis rubbed his hair and sighed softly.

In the following days, just as he guessed, someone leaked the news, and the fact that Long rejected the Twelve Earthly Branches twice in a row began to ferment within the association... In addition, Long killed one of the original members of the Twelve Earthly Branches, the Monkey King.

There are rumors that the background of Journey to the West is complicated, and they wanted to frame Long, but failed.

Being able to kill the twelve zodiac signs is enough to prove Long's strength, and people have an instinctive admiration for the strong... The key is that Long is different from the other twelve zodiac signs or three-star hunters. He has a good reputation and there are many younger generations who are taken care of by him.

You know, there are less than 700 members in the entire Hunter Association.

Including associations.

Therefore, as long as it is spread a little, it will soon become known to everyone.

The hunter who was taken care of by Oboro came to tell his story personally...

The weak do not like the strong who are high above them, and one can even say they hate them. This is human nature... it is also the origin of the assistant calling the star hunter "uncle". But if a person is very strong and gets along well with the masses, the situation will be different.

All of Long's arrangements were visible in Jin's eyes...but he couldn't stop it.

Because...he has no charisma or good reputation.

Based on this point, even if Long played his cards openly, there was nothing he could do.

No one would listen to him.

As for joining forces with Pariston, forget it...

The key thing at the moment is to find out where the dangerous factors are for the old man.

……

"Sir, the insiders we have cultivated over the years have completely infiltrated the core of the political power of various countries."

In a master bedroom, Long and David were talking.

The latter was reporting to him on the progress of the Fields family's mission over the years.

"In some small countries, our people have occupied important positions and, in accordance with your instructions, have established a firm foothold in the royal families of various countries through women and the method of continuing offspring. Some larger countries, such as the Kajin Empire, are also the same. In addition, with the support of the officials we have placed, each 'honeypot' has a high voice and background in the royal family."
