Miyazaki Shuei and Zhao Quan became friends, and the next day the Japanese government announced to the world that they would jointly govern the Soya Branch Office on Hokkaido Island with the Pacific Ocean Kingdom.
At the same time, Miyazaki Shuei also announced that the Soya Branch Office would provide a portion of meat to the people of the Haiguo every month as proof of diplomatic relations as a "good neighborly and friendly country", hoping that Japan could take the cooperation with the Haiguo to a higher level.
This announcement immediately caused an uproar. Without waiting for international public opinion, the Japanese themselves were furious.
"Miyazaki Shuei is a traitor!"
"Ah, I knew it. Japan is indeed a weak country. Of course, when faced with such a problem, it needs to find a father country to overcome it. However, it used to be a country of humans, but now it has become a country of marine life."
"That's amazing! We Japanese are so powerful!"
"When something happened in Yingdu, they immediately ceded territory and paid tribute. As expected, that's how the Japanese are."
Sometimes, the degree of sarcasm among Japanese netizens is even more severe. Different from the sarcasm in other places, the sarcasm in Japan seems particularly...real.
If a foreigner saw this, he would think that the Japanese were not very angry, and might even be a little complacent.
This matter is now being hotly discussed everywhere in Japan, and it seems like a storm is about to come.
But everyone knows that most of them will just talk about it online and act as keyboard warriors, and it is impossible for them to do anything practical.
'Heisei trash', 'Reiwa tough guy', those who understand will understand, this is the current situation of contemporary Japanese people.
However, this is also a huge public pressure for Miyazaki Shuei, and Miyazaki Shuei has no way to deal with it.
You can't just say directly that letting Japan and the Kaigoku jointly govern the Soya Branch Office is actually beneficial to Japan, right?
This is too embarrassing, and the legislators will definitely not pass it.
"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, there's already a large gathering in Sakura City, and it seems like there's a precursor to a parade!"
The Prime Minister's assistant hurried out of the room and said to the exhausted Miyazaki Shuei, "Those whose families were destroyed by the Demon King 'Tsuchimikado Kurosaku' have taken to the streets, demanding justice."
Miyazaki Shuei, already in a bad mood due to the 'sea nation's public opinion', was immediately annoyed when he heard this and couldn't help but say, "What does this have to do with us? If they want justice, they can go to Tsuchimikado Kurosaku and those ghosts. It's not us who killed or tore apart their families!"
"If we hadn't contacted reinforcements in time, Yingdu would have been destroyed by now. How could they have had any chance of survival?!"
Miyazaki Shuei was very angry and furious at the foolish behavior of the people: "Is the Prime Minister just meant to bear the infamy?!"
The Prime Minister's assistant spoke cautiously, "Prime Minister Miyazaki, I suggest you follow your usual routine and hold a press conference and bow to apologize."
"Apologize?!"
Miyazaki Shuei also calmed down slightly, shook his head, and said: "We can't apologize! If we apologize, what will the Sea Country think? What will the Sea King think?!"
"We still don't know how powerful the Sea King is. He could be a minor character, or he could be a Leviathan that can stir up a huge wave like he did a year ago. Do you dare to gamble with all of Hokkaido, or even all of Japan?!"
Although Miyazaki Shuei was a little angry, he was not stupid.
If he apologized now, would the Japanese people let him go? Impossible, and he might also offend the Sea King Zhao Quan.
In that case, why not play it safe and endure it silently for a while?
At worst, he will quit as the next prime minister, and it doesn’t matter anyway.
"As long as I find what the Sea King needs, I can also become a transcendent."
Miyazaki Shuei thought silently in his heart, and had already prepared for his future in his heart.
I guess with his ability, if he goes to the Sea Kingdom, he can at least become a minister, right?
Thinking of this, Miyazaki Shuei took a deep breath and decided to ignore the noise of those people, and was determined to "use all the strength of Japan to please the King of the Sea".
Anyway, I can just walk away when the time comes. Do they have the guts to chase me to Haiguo and kill me?
confidence!
At the same time, in a rural forest in a county on Honshu Island, Araki Renku also heard about this incident from passers-by.
"Will the Soya branch be handed over to the Kaigoku?"
Araki Rensora, who felt more and more abnormal in her body, murmured softly, while Hokuto Marie just served quietly beside her without saying a word.
Instead of being as furious as one might imagine, Araki Renku asked calmly, "Marie, where is the Soya Branch Office, and what country is the Sea Country?"
"Teacher, the Soya Branch Office is at the northernmost tip of Hokkaido. The Sea Country is a mysterious ocean nation from the bottom of the Pacific Ocean."
After that, Beidou Marie added: "The Sea Nation once fought against the United States. The god Dagon once overturned the US aircraft carrier battle group, and Leviathan almost submerged Hokkaido Island."
Hokuto Marie didn't quite understand the definition of "sea country", so she treated all the extraordinary events related to the ocean that had happened in the past few months as sea countries and told them all to Araki Renku.
"So this is the northernmost tip of Hokkaido."
Araki Renku was a bit puzzled when he heard this. "Giving such a desolate land to a monster kingdom that could flood Hokkaido wouldn't be a big deal, right? The Emperor had previously promised many territories to monsters from all over the world and allowed Onmyoji to establish Onmyoji's in various places. Why are the Japanese reacting so strongly now?"
As an ancient person, Araki Renku doesn't quite understand the way people in Japan think today.
