Chapter 306 Bargaining
Chapter 306 Bargaining
"Alright! You two are really brave. You dared to hide such an important matter from me for such a long time. What exactly do you want to do!!!"
The captain's thunderous roar echoed throughout the room. As the captain of the Gotei 13, the responsibility he shouldered was incredibly heavy.
The impact of the resurrection of the first captain has even surpassed the once sensational Aizen incident. However, Lin Yu and Bayunsai have kept this matter a secret from him.
Facing the enraged captain, Bayunzhai's heart tightened. She secretly glanced at the captain's gloomy face.
This isn't a big deal. The return of the original captains will undoubtedly greatly enhance Soul Society's combat power, which should be a cause for celebration. Why is the Captain-General so angry?
Could it be that... could it be that the captain mistakenly thought that Lin Yu wanted to seize power and usurp the throne, intending to replace him as the new captain, and then form a brand new Gotei 13?
Heaven and earth are my conscience! Lin Yu did this entirely out of consideration for the future of Soul Society!
"Humph, this guy has probably been coveting my position for a long time, right? He's always pretending not to want to be the captain, but he's actually been secretly plotting something!"
The captain has already made up his mind that Lin Yu wants to usurp the throne.
"no……"
Bayunzhai shook his head helplessly. This was really ridiculous! It was clearly a great thing, but why did it change its tone when the captain said it?
"Good! Good! Good! As long as this boy can return safely this time, I will immediately retire from the martial arts world and never get involved in worldly affairs again. Whoever wants the position of captain can take it. This old man will have a leisurely and comfortable life."
The captain suddenly changed the subject and offered to give up his seat without hesitation. He looked as if he was holding a hot potato in his hand and wanted to throw it away immediately.
Hearing this, Bayunzhai was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized. The wily Captain Yamamoto had been acting the whole time!
He knew very well that Lin Yu had no intention of taking over the position of captain. So he took the opportunity to make a fuss and put the hat of usurping the throne on Lin Yu's head.
In this way, no matter whether Lin Yu is willing to accept it or not, he has fallen into a dilemma. Either he bites the bullet and takes on the position of captain and shoulder the heavy responsibility.
Either he refuses to take the position and is branded as a power-seeking and usurping king. He is caught between a rock and a hard place, neither being accepted by anyone nor by anyone else.
"Well! Please continue..."
Bayunzhai had seen through everything at this point, but on the surface he remained calm and just responded indifferently.
"Continue with what?"
The captain obviously did not expect Bayunzhai to respond so calmly. He was speechless for a moment. He had thought that the other party would be grateful for his decision and thank him profusely.
"Oh, go on, and if you try harder, I might actually believe it!"
Bayunzhai was speechless. The captain had regained his youth, but his mentality had become so out of whack? Could this be a side effect of rejuvenation?
"Bayunzhai! Look at us! We're all over a thousand years old! Back when Team Thirteen was first established, I took on the role of team leader. Over the years, we've weathered so many storms and worked so diligently. I'm truly exhausted!"
"Now that I'm old and my body can't take it anymore, it's time for me to retire and enjoy a peaceful life! Can you bear to watch an old man like me continue to toil like this?"
Seeing that his tough approach had no effect, the captain resorted to emotional tactics, tearfully recounting the hardships of the past few years. Where was the awe-inspiring Sword Ghost he once was? He was nothing more than a scoundrel playing tricks and throwing tantrums!
Bayunzhai saw through it all. This old man was extremely bad and had no bottom line at all. He was willing to sacrifice his reputation to allow Lin Yu to take over the position of captain.
"No! The Gotei 13 are full of talented people! Genryusai, why do you have to keep targeting our Lin Yu? You said it yourself, the position of captain is hard and tiring, and the responsibility is huge! Do you think he is suitable for it?"
Naturally, Bayunzhai would not allow her husband to be pushed into such a dire strait.
Whoever wants to take the position of captain can take it. Anyway, the couple does not have the time and energy, let alone any interest in it.
Putting aside other things, just looking at Lin Yu's usual carefree and idle appearance, if he really became the captain, wouldn't the Gotei 13 be completely finished? If this got out, he would become a laughing stock!
What's more, if Lin Yu starts to act badly, all the affairs and responsibilities will naturally fall on her, Bayunzhai.
Well! Yuan Liuzhai had a good plan, but unfortunately, Bayunzhai was not the kind of person who would easily agree to something that was clearly meant to harm her!
It makes absolutely no sense!
"Really can't you reconsider it?"
The captain looked helplessly at Bayunzhai, who refused to budge, and secretly groaned inwardly. This couple was really a headache.
"No room for negotiation! No room for negotiation at all! He is my beloved husband, how can I sell him off so easily?"
Bayunzhai refused without even thinking about it. His tough attitude startled the captain.
The captain keenly caught a flaw in Bayunzhai's words. From her slightly excited tone, he seemed to sense a turning point.
Could it be that… there’s still room for maneuver in this matter? Thinking of this, the captain’s eyes lit up slightly, and a bold idea emerged.
"I'll give you money!"
"How about it?"
The captain tried to tempt Bayunzhai to see how he would react.
“Give me how much!!!”
When they heard the word "pay", Bayunzhai's psychological defense line, which was originally as strong as a solid wall, suddenly seemed to be hit by a heavy hammer and a tiny crack appeared.
"After I retire, I'll give you half of my salary. How about that? Consider it."
The captain was secretly delighted, thinking that there was still hope. He gritted his teeth and steeled himself to give a number.
I didn't expect that Bayunzhai was actually a money-grubber. If I had known this, why would he have wasted so much time and energy threatening and crying?
Bayunzhai's heart was in a fierce struggle. On one side was her beloved husband, and on the other was the extremely tempting little money. The two constantly intertwined and collided in her mind, making it difficult for her to make a decision.
"Money...husband..."
"Husband...money..."
"Half...is not enough, not at all! He's my beloved husband, he has to pay more!"
How should he choose? It was too difficult! After a long and painful struggle, Bayunzhai finally resisted the temptation.
In a word! You have to pay extra!!!
