In the hall.

Lakeman lazily sat on the sofa, looking at the auction management in front of him, and gently put down the Den Den Mushi in his hand.

Next to Lakeman, stood the butler and the head of the guards.

More guards surrounded the front, watching the management vigilantly.

"……"

Hancock was also one of the attendants. She stood behind Lakeman, gently rubbing Lakeman's shoulders with both hands, with a surprised expression.

The people in front of her who were bowing their heads were all well-known guys.

But in front of the Celestial Dragons, they could only flatter.

And Lakeman accepted all this very naturally, as if everything was taken for granted, and the Celestial Dragons should be superior.

The image in Hancock's mind became more and more fragmented.

She really couldn't match the Celestial Dragon in front of her who exuded a solemn and majestic aura with the boy who held her to sleep at night. It was as if these were two completely different people.

No, that's not right.

Hancock suddenly thought of something and narrowed her eyes slightly.

There are changes.

I don't know when it started, but Lakeman has become more and more like a superior, arrogant, deep, and domineering.

At night, he gradually became condescending.

She also unknowingly submitted to this superiority.

Didn't notice Hancock's distraction

"I'll give you one minute." Lakeman looked at the management, picked up the teacup beside him and took a sip.

This unique tea from underwater has an extremely fragrant taste.

Lakeman fell in love with it at first sight.

"Yes!"

Among the management, the leading man was not surprised but happy when he heard Lakeman's words.

He was not afraid of Lakeman's cold attitude, but he was afraid that he would not give them a chance to speak. If they were allowed to speak, they would have room to express themselves.

What they feared most was that Lakeman would be angry and order the guards to kill them without saying a word when he saw them.

That would be really speechless and powerless to save the situation.

Fortunately, the worst situation did not happen.

‘My analysis is correct, this young master of the Tianlong people is more intelligent and kind!’

‘This kindness is exactly what can be used!

The man in the lead was a senior executive. He straightened his back, adjusted his tie, and said with an extremely apologetic and guilty expression:

"I'm so sorry, Master Lakeman Saint!"

"It's because the people below have been blinded by greed that they dare to turn their attention to you. Even if you die a thousand times, it won't be enough to atone for your sin!"

"It's also our fault for not doing our job well. The personnel in the Sabaody Archipelago are in chaos, and there are all kinds of gangsters and villains. We did not examine their character and hired them as employees, which led to what happened today. We are really sorry!"

The man said, bowing deeply.

The corners of his mouth curled up quietly.

These words perfectly picked them out.

Admit the mistake, but it was not them who made the mistake, but the bold and reckless employees below.

They were just wrong for not examining the character of the employees properly.

But this point cannot be blamed on them.

Because the Sabaody Archipelago is a mixed bag, most of the areas are lawless areas, and even the navy and the world government can't do anything about it.

They can't change anything.

‘This is the perfect speech I prepared!

The man chuckled in his heart,"Master Lakeman, with your kindness and intelligence, you will definitely understand my words and understand my painstaking efforts."

While thinking, the man continued to speak

"We have contacted the boss to apologize."

The man looked up at Lakeman, only to see that Lakeman's face was calm and indifferent.

But in the man's eyes, it was good news.

At least he was not angry, right?

"Our boss is the Great Black Hemp Kingdom in the West Sea, one of the member states of the World Government."The man pointed to the identity of the boss behind him and said,"The Great Black Hemp Kingdom is willing to offer all the auctioned goods to you, sir, as our apology. Please accept it."

After saying that, the man knelt directly on the ground, with his head pressed heavily on the ground.

The management behind him followed suit.

In an instant, everyone knelt on the ground, with their foreheads pressed against the floor.

Compared with saving lives and wealth.

What does a mere kneeling behavior count for?

Even if they were asked to lick the shoes of the Celestial Dragons, there would be no problem!

"……"

Hancock was shocked when he saw this kind of scene for the first time.

Such a group of glamorous elites actually knelt down without hesitation because of the mistakes of their subordinates?

And they even offered the goods they had collected for a whole year!

Their attitude was too sincere!

‘They are a member country, pay the Heavenly Gold every year, and are protected by the World Government, but they still come to apologize in person.……’Hancock exhaled lightly, and was shocked in her heart:"Is this the noble Celestial Dragon?"

For a moment, Hancock felt a little bit reluctant.

It was as if she felt sorry for her own kind.

Seeing these people kneeling, she thought of her own experience of being forced to lose her freedom and become a slave of the Celestial Dragons.

But she was the only one who felt this way.

The guards and servants around her were all expressionless, and their vigilant eyes did not change at all.

They did not listen to what the man said.

It was not important whether he was wrong or not. What was important was what Saint Lakeman, a Celestial Dragon, thought!

‘A bunch of damn guys!

After hearing this, the butler's eyes flashed with coldness.

‘How dare you play tricks on me, trying to deceive the young master and lightly cover up the offense against him?

The butler was murderous.

But he didn't say anything, because he knew that the young master would not be fooled.

The young master's sharpness and intelligence were at the genius level!

The butler firmly believed this.

"One minute is up."

Lakeman finally spoke, and the first sentence he said made the faces of the kneeling management change drastically.

"Saint Lakeman!!"The leading man suddenly raised his head with an expression of disbelief.

"It's so noisy."

Lakeman gently rubbed his ears.

Suddenly, a guard next to him slapped the man in the face.

Bang!

The man was spun like a top, his body turned over two and a half weeks, and fell heavily to the ground.

He fainted.

"……"

The others were instantly silent, showing a look of horror.

"!?"Hancock's eyes widened in shock, not understanding why things turned out this way.

Didn't they apologize?

It wasn't their fault, it was just the private behavior of the employees below!

She subconsciously opened her mouth, wanting to say something to dissuade them, but suddenly her heart shuddered and she froze.

On the sofa.

Lakeman turned around and glanced at her indifferently, as if he had expected it.

This look made Hancock feel like she was falling into an ice cave.

It was as if she had been seen through, and she felt cold in her heart.
