Chapter 60 (Exclusive to Jinjiang Literature City)
"Are you serious?" Dazai Osamu was genuinely surprised this time. He pointed to himself, then to the equally surprised Nakahara Chuuya. "You want the two of us to go to Luofu?"
Does he really feel comfortable handing over his two top executives to the Immortal Boat Alliance?
“Of course,” Mori Ougai said. “Not only does our port’s Mafia send people to Luofu to study, but other forces have also sent quite a few people there.”
Koyo Ozaki expressed her understanding.
The arrival of the Immortal Ship Alliance is a great opportunity. If managed well, it might even allow them to embark on an interstellar journey.
Even the least ambitious person would find it hard to resist the allure of interstellar travel.
After all, that's the vast universe.
"It's a pity that Luofu only offers a limited number of spots; there are only five in the entire Yokohama area," Mori Ougai said. "If I didn't have other commitments, I would definitely go to Luofu to take a look."
After overcoming his initial fear, Mori Ōgai was filled with longing for the Immortal Boat Alliance.
If only he could one day make the port mafia as powerful as the Immortal Boat Alliance.
What a pity!
Even that magical "book" couldn't do it.
He's already doing everything he can to protect Yokohama from the various forces at play.
The idea of sending Dazai Osamu and Nakahara Chuuya to school was just a joke.
Senou's main goal was to allow his future successor to come into contact with the Immortal Boat Alliance as soon as possible, and ideally, to maintain friendly relations with them.
“I thought you wanted to kick Dazai out of the port mafia, boss,” Ozaki Koyo said.
Sen Ou did not deny this: "I used to have this idea, but as you know, times have changed."
No matter how much he feared Dazai Osamu, Mori Ougai had to consider the city of Yokohama.
"But aren't you afraid that Dazai-kun will hold a grudge against you if you just hand him over to the Immortal Ship Alliance like this?" Ozaki Koyo asked with some concern.
Mori shrugged: "It doesn't matter, as long as Dazai-kun remembers that he is a native of Yokohama."
He already harbored too much resentment, so adding Dazai Osamu to the list wouldn't matter.
“Everything is for Yokohama,” Mori Ogai said.
Dazai Osamu, whom he regarded as the future successor of the Port Mafia, was naturally well aware of Mori Ougai's little schemes.
Admittedly, he really dislikes Sen Ouwai, but he is, after all, a native of this world, and it is impossible for him to abandon this world and turn to the Immortal Boat Alliance.
"Isn't Chuuya quite popular with that Mr. Jingyuan? Quickly unleash your charm and get the Immortal Ship Luofu to form an alliance with our port mafia!" Dazai Osamu read aloud in a monotone tone.
"Are you kidding me?" Chuuya Nakahara raised his leg to kick him, but Dazai Osamu dodged it. "The Port Mafia doesn't have anything that's tempting."
Even if Chuuya Nakahara liked their organization a lot, he knew in his heart that the Port Mafia was nothing in the grand scheme of things.
Putting aside everything else, even a small city like Yokohama isn't solely controlled by the port's Mafia.
"It's one thing for Chuuya to be short, but is his brain also small?" Dazai Osamu sighed. "Why do you think Mr. Mori would send the two of us to Luofu for tourism?"
It's precisely because of "No Longer Human" and "Araha-tsu".
Chuuya Nakahara wasn't stupid after all, and he quickly understood what Osamu Dazai meant.
He raised his hand to press down the brim of his hat, and his voice was no longer as cheerful as before: "Are we being used as test subjects?"
“Perhaps you could use a more tactful way of putting it,” a pleasant female voice suddenly rang out between the two of them, “like, a member of the supernatural ability research group or something.”
Both Dazai Osamu and Nakahara Chuuya were startled and instinctively took a few steps back.
Suddenly, a tall, black-haired woman appeared where they had been standing. She was beautiful, and her furry ears and tail indicated that she was a fox.
"Greetings, you two. I am Liu Yun, your guide on the Immortal Ship Luofu." the woman said.
Dazai Osamu glanced at Ryuun, then at Nakahara Chuuya, and smiled, "Miss Ryuun, does Luofu have any height-increasing drugs?"
"Hey! Dazai!" Chuuya Nakahara lowered his voice, "Don't force me to beat you up in front of outsiders."
Liu Yun used her fan to cover the curve of her lips, but the smile in her eyes was impossible to hide.
“Mr. Chuuya, you can try floating goat milk. Our former general, Kagemoto, drank it every day,” Ryuun said with a smile.
“Jingyuan…General?” Nakahara Chuuya was somewhat surprised.
Although both he and Dazai Osamu knew that Jingyuan's identity was not simple, they did not expect that the other party was actually the former general of the Immortal Ship Luofu.
“No wonder…” Dazai Osamu finally understood why Mori Ougai had asked him and Nakahara Chuuya to come together; it turned out that Mori had already made arrangements with Kagemoto.
Seeing that the two of them had lowered their guard slightly, Liu Yun put away her folding fan, flipped her left hand, and a book floated quietly in her palm.
"Perhaps you two still remember this book?" Liu Yun asked.
Dazai Osamu and Nakahara Chuuya nodded.
"Is there a problem with this book?" Chuuya Nakahara asked.
"Our main research is on this book, so please rest assured that you will not be used as test subjects." Liu Yun put the book away and added, "By the way, let me clarify that human experimentation is prohibited on the Immortal Ship, so please rest assured."
"Is there anything we need to be careful about?" Dazai Osamu asked.
Liu Yun replied, "Luofu is very open-minded. As long as you don't pursue immortality, everything is negotiable."
Who would want to pursue that kind of thing? Dazai Osamu wanted to roll his eyes.
Living is disgusting enough; if he could live forever, he couldn't even imagine what he would become.
"No wonder Jingyuan hates the Black Organization so much, so that's why." Edogawa Ranpo had just jumped off the raft when he heard Ryuun's words.
Accompanying him were Shinichi Kudo and Shiho Miyano, whose identities had been restored: "I see."
"Yokohama has five spots, right?" Dazai Osamu glanced at the list. "Including this squinty-eyed guy who just arrived, that makes three. Who are the other two? Are they from the Special Abilities Division?"
"Yes, and they're old acquaintances of yours." Two more people came out of the Star Chariot, one was Sakaguchi Ango, and the other was an old man.
Dazai Osamu didn't recognize the old man, but he had a feeling that the other man was not a simple person, so he subconsciously became more vigilant.
“Mr. Fukuchi Sakura, is that right?” Liuyun asked.
The old man nodded.
"Now that everyone is here, please follow me." Liu Yun gestured for them to enter and said with a smile, "Welcome to Immortal Boat Luofu."
The Immortal Ship Luofu is open to the public. Anyone from any country or power can board the Immortal Ship as long as they pass Luofu's review.
As the lead ship of the Immortal Ships, Luofu was also a center of economic and trade activities. Therefore, compared with the other Immortal Ships, Luofu was more open.
Liu Yun led the five people around, explaining as they went, and also offered them some of Luofu's specialties. When he offered them soda soy milk, Dazai Osamu and Edogawa Ranpo both waved their hands in polite refusal, so there were two fewer people in the group who were vomiting.
Seeing the regret in Ryuun's eyes, Dazai Osamu said helplessly, "You should at least tone it down a bit, Miss Ryuun."
Liu Yun chuckled and said, "Really not going to give it a try, gentlemen?"
Dazai Osamu and Edogawa Ranpo were moved but declined: "No, really, it's not necessary."
Unfortunately, while they could refuse Ryuun, they couldn't refuse Nakahara Chuuya and Fukuchi Sakura. The two exchanged a glance, and then, in perfect unison, each grabbed a bottle of soda and poured it into the mouths of Dazai Osamu and Edogawa Ranpo.
"yue——"
Seeing the two of them vomiting into the trash can, Chuuya Nakahara and Sakura Fukuchi burst into laughter.
The same scene is playing out in various parts of Luofu.
Sawada Tsunayoshi clung to the trash can, refusing to let go: "Reborn, you're a devil!"
Hayato Gokudera, standing nearby, anxiously handed him water and a handkerchief: "Tenth Boss, are you alright, Tenth Boss?"
"Cheer up, you idiot!" the baby in the top hat said in a tone of utter exasperation. "Show some of the spirit you'd expect from the tenth Vongola boss!"
Behind him, Hibari Kyoya and Rokudo Mukuro were pouring each other soda and soy milk, while Yamamoto Takeshi and Ryohei tried to break them up. Lambo, meanwhile, was hugging Ryohei and crying loudly, "It tastes awful! Lambo-sama misses his mom!"
Let's switch the scene again.
"A show of force! This must be Luo Fu's way of putting them in their place!" Irie Shoichi was vomiting so hard, tears streaming down his face, as he hugged the trash can. "Lord Byakuran, I want to go back to work. Please let me go back to work. Luo Fu is just too dangerous!"
"Hmm, it's rare to see Shoichi so eager to work overtime." Byakuran looked at Irie Shoichi with a grin. "But we worked so hard to get this spot, it would be a waste if Shoichi quits."
Looking at the footage from the monitor, Qingzu realized with a start that Fu Xuan was a general personally trained by Jing Yuan, so it was perfectly normal for him to have a bit of a perverse sense of humor.
"I have a feeling that Luofu is becoming even more terrifying in their minds," Qingzu sighed.
Fu Xuan was busy with official business and didn't even look up: "It's better to be a little afraid, so they won't take advantage of us."
These people all came to Luofu with their own ulterior motives. Some coveted technology, some power, and others knowledge or something else entirely. Fu Xuan was well aware of this and didn't mind: "This is their world. It's always right to think more about themselves."
As long as you don't cross the Immortal Ship's bottom line, Fu Xuan is always easy to talk to.
In any case, the main reason for the descent of the Immortal Ship Luofu was for the sake of Taoism.
Taoism possesses a secret to alleviate demonic possession, and regardless of the reason, the Immortal Boat Luofu will not relax its supervision of flower cultivation.
This is domineering and unreasonable, but there's no other way. Fu Xuan must keep this secret, which concerns the entire Immortal Ship Alliance, and prevent the people of Fengrao and the Interstellar Peace Company from finding out.
In addition, the Flower Planting Sect has a close connection with the Immortal Boat Alliance's hometown. If the Flower Planting Sect members are allowed to roam freely outside, they will definitely be targeted.
The Immortal Ship Alliance is one of the top powers in the interstellar space, with countless enemies. They can't do anything about the Immortal Ship Alliance, but that doesn't mean they can't do anything about China.
The people of China weren't stupid either. After Fu Xuan explained things to them, they immediately decided to latch onto the Immortal Boat Alliance.
Even though they are the five permanent members of the UN Security Council that no one dares to provoke in this world, in interstellar space, China is just a nobody. Now that they can get in touch with the Immortal Ship Alliance, one of the strongest forces, they would be stupid to refuse.
Putting aside everything else, the Pill Refining Division of the Immortal Boat Alliance alone is highly respected by the Chinese people. This is because the Pill Refining Division has truly saved many people.
"A miracle doctor has been reborn!"
"A miraculous cure!"
"I'll risk my life!"
"The eternal God!"
...
Ever since the Chinese nation signed a friendly and mutually beneficial treaty with the Immortal Boat Alliance, all sorts of strange and wonderful banners have been hanging all over the Dan Ding Si's clinic.
The doctors at Dan Ding Si commented: "It's a bit awkward, but it's really great!"
