*Pfft...*
Oda Takeo's expression turned even colder as he looked at Inoue Kumaji, who was barely suppressing his laughter.
"Mr. Inoue, if you don't want to talk, I have other matters to attend to, so I'll take my leave now..."
But before Oda Takeo could finish speaking angrily,
Inoue Kumaji interrupted with a light smile,
"What is the Dwarf Emperor anyway!"
!!!!!!!
When Oda Takeo saw Inoue Kumaji, a Japanese person, he said this with an indifferent expression on his face.
In an instant,
Oda Takeo's face was filled with shock, confusion, and bewilderment!
Upon witnessing this scene, Inoue Kumaji couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion.
Being Gao Ren's dog is not bad!
The Dwarf Emperor can curse however he wants, without caring about his status here.
Unlike Oda Takeo, he didn't react as if hearing anything detrimental to the Emperor was a threat to kill his entire family.
"Does Mr. Oda not hear me clearly?"
"Since Mr. Oda didn't hear me clearly, I'll repeat it again!"
"The Dwarf Emperor is with me,"
"It's nothing!!!"
Seeing Inoue Kumaji's serious expression as he spoke these words, Oda Takeo suppressed his shock.
He switched to his previous cold and aloof manner and said...
"Mr. Inoue, do you even know what you're saying?!"
"If this gets out, do you think Gao Ren, who's behind you, can save you?"
Oda Takeo wanted to cooperate with Takahito to obtain cheap oil, food, and various minerals from him.
In this way, he could recover the losses he suffered because of Naoto Oda.
But this doesn't mean he was blinded by these benefits and couldn't understand the Emperor's position in Japan.
Although the Dwarf Emperor currently holds little real power on the surface, his influence behind the scenes is beyond everyone's imagination!
The current influence of the Dwarf Emperor may not be enough to prompt Japan to wage a war.
But the Dwarf Emperor's influence allows him to make a Japanese person die quietly within Japan.
That's a piece of cake!
Seeing Oda Takeo preparing to leave, Inoue Kumaji then said with an expression that said, "I have him completely under my control."
"Cook!"
Once this name was mentioned,
Oda Takeshi, who was just about to open the door to leave, froze in his tracks...
A question kept popping into my mind.
Is this Cook the Cook I know?
Before Oda Takedai could even ask the question, Inoue Kumaji seemed to have guessed his thoughts.
He spoke directly.
"That's right!"
"Mr. Oda, the Mr. Cook I'm talking about is the same Mr. Cook you know!"
"Mr. Oda,"
"I cursed the dwarf emperor in front of the Japanese, saying he's nothing but trash. Mr. Cook, can you protect me?!"
Who is Cook?
That's the second de facto emperor in Japan after MacArthur!
Compared to him, the Dwarf Emperor is nothing...
If Cook were the person behind Inoue Kumaji, he wouldn't even dare to criticize the short-statured emperor behind his back.
Even if you call the short emperor an idiot to his face, he has to pretend that he really is an idiot... I don't understand what Inoue Kumaji is saying!
But isn't Takahito behind you, Inoue Kumaji?
Why did it suddenly change to Cook?
Faced with the question posed by Oda Takeo, Inoue Kumaji thought to himself, "The fish has taken the bait," and then smiled as he spoke.
"It's very simple!"
"Mr. Gao has reached a cooperation agreement with General Cook!"
"cooperate?"
"Are you kidding me?"
"The military exercise that just took place in the East China Sea was a tactic by which Cook was ordered to force Kaur, who had achieved a complete victory in the Sultan, to return."
"You're telling me now that two people who were once at odds have reached a cooperation agreement?"
"Do you think I'm an idiot?!"
Seeing Oda Takeo's incredulous expression, Inoue Kumaji still answered with a smile.
“Mr. Oda, you just said it yourself,”
"Mr. Cook was acting under orders!"
"Since it's an order, doesn't that mean there's no fundamental conflict between Cook and Mr. Gao?"
In other words,
"Since Mr. Gao poses such a great threat to the United States, wouldn't he be a natural partner for General Cook?"
In just a moment,
Oda Takeo immediately understood what Inoue Kumaji meant by those words.
Respect yourself!
The greater the threat Gao Ren poses to the United States, the more pretext Cook can use to demand more money, more warships, and more soldiers from Congress!
Seeing the shock on Oda Takeo's face, Inoue Kumaji smiled again and said...
"Mr. Oda,"
"Now you believe I have the ability to make sure you don't have to pay a single penny of tax!"
If Cook really speaks up,
Forget about paying taxes, the short emperor also has to take a sum of money from his private treasury to subsidize himself!
However, due to the inherent caution of the Japanese, Oda Takeo still spoke very cautiously.
"Mr. Inoue,"
"How can I believe anything you're saying!"
"According to my information, if General Cook and Mr. Gao are partners,"
"Do you still need my help to get the machine tools Mr. Gao needs from Japan to the north?"
Faced with the criticism, Inoue Kumaji laughed, a laugh that was arrogant and disdainful of everyone.
But the more he acted this way, the less Oda Takeo could understand what he was trying to do.
"Mr. Oda, if you could figure out Mr. Gao's purpose so easily, then how did Mr. Gao manage to outmaneuver the intelligence agencies of the United States within the territory of the Sultan?"
