Chapter 848: Green and Red playgrounds -2
"This is inappropriate! Aro doesn't know how to betray or play games, and he would
definitely never put me in a bad situation, as long as we're with you, he'd rather side with the True Beginning Empire, I bet with all my soul and blood that he's helping the demons right now!!" Flora quickly interjected
"...That we'll find out soon enough." Robin stared at Flora for a few seconds before continuing, "Unlike Greenland where we have the advantage of a planet spirit and a portal in the making, we don't have any contact with the Orphan Blood Planet, and the Demons there don't know how to build portals... The Orphan Blood Planet will be our priority."
"Thank you, Your Excellency!" Martial Emperor Bossana stood on his octopus legs and bowed deeply towards Robin
"Your decision will be narrated for generations to come, Your Excellency." General Shoko, of the Falcon Wing Clan, stood up and next to Bossana bowed.
Flora was so excited that she forgot to say anything!
"Your Excellency, what about our homeland? We are here now. I am truly grateful for His Highness Richard's efforts, but we have seen with our own eyes the attack on Jura City, there must be many of them scattered around." General Martin intervened again, but this time he spoke while sitting down and in a low voice.
Caesar nodded, "Before my arrival, Richard had managed to kill a Marshal, nearly 30 Martial Emperors, and 50,000 soldiers from the Great Serpent Empire, and on top of them he took care of nearly 50 million rebels. After my arrival, together we laid siege to the imperial capital, killing another 40 more Martial Emperors and over 90,000 soldiers. As for yesterday and today, we managed to kill a few Martial Emperors and several thousand more soldiers..." Then Caesar continued as he pointed towards the Flame Continent, "This means that there is now one Marshal on Jura's back, roughly 300 Martial Emperors, and around 100,000 soldiers, most of whom have started to gather here, on the Flame Continent, not to mention there are is 5 million rebels still scattered throughout the planet Jura who do not dare to gather and we cannot find them, but they may appear to strike us at any moment if the opportunity arises." Caesar was speaking on very important matters, yet everyone's eyes turned towards Richard who was looking down as if he did not hear anything, even Alexander could not resist and sent a glance towards Richard... Is there still a need for an army when this guy is here?!
Robin slightly raised his eyebrows and looked at the map of Planet Jura... 300 Martial Emperors and 100,000 soldiers, even if a large number of them had gathered in the Flame Continent, there were still many of them scattered throughout Planet Jura... In addition to the five million rebels still spreading their poison among the citizens, they would definitely succeed in rallying more to their side after the disaster that befell Planet Jura last week!
Dealing with all this headache wouldn't be easy, two weeks definitely wouldn't be enough, and even if he ordered the entire army to stay and help, he wouldn't be able to save Orphan Blood or even Greenland!
Robin tapped the table several times, "...We currently have 31 Orphan Blood Martial Emperors in the army, and about 120 Greenland Martial Emperors in addition to the three Tree Fathers, can we find another 100 Jura Martial Emperors to volunteer to go to Orphan Blood today?"
"Today? That won't be easy." Caesar raised his eyebrows slightly, "Most of them want to check on their families, and those who don't have families are definitely tired from the battles of Nihari, no one would want to volunteer to go to war on another planet, but I can force them if you want."
Robin shook his head, forcing soldiers to go to war wasn't a good idea, " Announce 5 times the war bounty for every Martial Emperor who agrees to help our Orphan Blood brothers and double the bounty for every law user who wants to participate, I want 200,000 soldiers, but on the condition that they move today, and you will be at their head!"
"That would be excellent!!" A big smile appeared on Flora's face.
Caesar let out a long sigh and then turned to the agitated soldiers, then nodded several times, "Alright, consider it done, I'll gather the required number one way or another, and allow me to take five warlords."
"You got it." Robin tapped the table a few times thinking about his next move, out of the corner of his eyes he saw Fogun looking at him with injustice, he laughed, "What? You want Jura's forces to help you in Greenland but you don't want to help with the Orphan Blood Planet?"
"I don't dare think of something like that! But... 10 days to go to the Orphan Blood planet and then two or three weeks to build the space portal, I'm afraid we won't be able to join our own battle."
"This is MY battle, I'm responsible for protecting Greenland since they attacked it because of me." Robin waved, "Go and help your brothers in the Orphan Blood, and don't worry about anything else. Unfortunately, I can't send more of Jura's forces away, I don't know even if we could gather 100 of them..."
Fogun nodded twice and was silent, the rest of the Greenlandic kings were also angry, but they understood the situation at least.
"After the Orphan Blood reinforcement Army leaves, we will be left with 250 Martial Emperors, 30 Warlords, and an infinite number of Law-User soldiers if we open the recruitment..." Robin muttered and looked at Alexander, "Can you organize a sweep of the Great Serpent Empire's soldiers with this army?"
"Me?" Alexander who was lost in thought was shocked by Robin's question but quickly nodded, "I believe His Highness Richard would be more deserving of command in the absence of Supreme General Caesar."
Alexander would normally have accepted the assignment immediately, but hearing what Richard did before their arrival made him take a step back, how could he give orders to someone like that?
Alexander sighed... He sparred with Caesar a few times in secret before, wanting to see just how powerful this man who was giving him orders, and he lost every single time, not daring to draw near the Death Fire.
And after hearing what Richard did now he knew immediately he was thrown back once more, no longer the second in command.
For someone competitive like him, this wasn't okay, but he had to guess something like that would happen... If his adopted son was this strong, how much worse would be his biological son? The guy is a beast and his sons are not that far off.
*Paa* Robin patted his son on the shoulder, "Richard has something else to do, I brought him in today just to see how things are going."
"Hooh-" Alexander let out a long exhale, then stood up and bowed towards Robin, "Wait for the good news then."
"Excellent, now you both know what to do, get to work!" Robin stood up and wiped his hand on the table, the three maps disappeared, then he gestured to Richard, "Come with me, there is someone who wants to meet you."
