Conqueror Of All 7 Determination

In another room, Jiutian, Nami and Nojiko were sitting around a black table.

Jiutian's expression wasn't the prettiest as she was glancing between Nami and Nojiko in different ways.

Nojiko was sitting near Nami, she knew that Nami's previous actions didn't satisfy what Jiutian had in mind. Therefore, Nojiko was doing her part as her elder sister to alleviate some problems.

Lastly, Nami was sitting there without moving a single muscle. She had her head lowered and didn't dare to glance at Jiutian in order to anger her. Nami knew that Jiutian and Izan were people not at the same standing as them. The s.h.i.+p alone was enough to prove that, as even spending billions of Berries couldn't buy you this s.h.i.+p.

"You might have already thought of it. Izan is not ready for the cruel world yet, Izan is going in headstrong to prove himself." Jiutian's voice sounded out softly as she explained. "And, I am here to guide him. Izan wished to save you two, therefore he slaughtered every one of those pirates."

At this moment, both Nojiko and Nami lowered their heads down in shame.

"Honestly speaking, I don't care what happens to the two of you, nor the entire world. But, Izan's wish was to help you the two of you." Jiutian sighed lightly before narrowing her eyes slightly. "Still, do not mistaken his kindness for granted. Because, if any of you do something that will cause any discomfort to Izan…" Jiutian didn't continue as she glared at the two.

The three turned silent for a long while. Jiutian was just staring at the two while Nami kept her head down and Nojiko slowly raising her head.

"Tell us. Tell us what we should do then." Nojiko was determined to stay with Izan and Jiutian. Nojiko knew that this might be the only chance they could get.

"Heh…" Jiutian's mood turned slightly better as she glanced over Nojiko's body. "This is Izan's first step. Strength is the least of his problems, but he would need mental support from his subordinates. Be it either by just standing near him, or easing his stress."

A gulp could be heard from Nami's direction. She slowly raised her head and carefully glanced at Jiutian. "How strong is Izan?" Nami's voice was rather weak, but Nami still asked.

Jiutian shrugged as she answered without any care. "At this moment, his strength should be above normal I presume. But, that's not the thing you should look at, because he is becoming stronger by just breathing and living. In time, Izan will be the strongest."

Nojiko and Nami froze when they heard Jiutian careless expression while stating that Izan will become the strongest. Even if they did have some doubts, they couldn't help but believe it. Because the memories of what happened earlier were stuck in their heads of Izan's overpowering strength.

"Now, if you do excuse me, I will go and prepare some food for Izan. We will begin traveling after we have eaten. I do suggest that you, the navigator start planning our route." Jiutian gave a glance to Nami as she slightly narrowed her eyes before continuing. "Nojiko, come with me." After saying that, Jiutian turned around and started walking towards the kitchen.

Nojiko didn't hesitate and walked behind Jiutian, while walking, Nojiko sent a short glance towards Nami. Nojiko knew that Nami needed time to understand what was going on, but with Jiutian here, they didn't have room for mistakes.

After entering the kitchen, Nojiko saw that Jiutian waving her hand and several ingrediencies appearing on the table in front of them. Different type of meats, vegetables and lots of spices. And, with another wave, different type of tools appeared near the ingrediencies.

With a fluid movement, Jiutian grabbed a knife and started cutting a large piece of meat into pieces with a small smile on her face.

Nojiko was slightly shocked, but she swiftly grabbed a knife with a couple of potatoes.

Time pa.s.sed by swiftly and Jiutian and Nojiko ended up with steak, soup, cooked vegetables and rice on the side.

"Now this looks like a meal." Jiutian smiled brightly as she thought of Izan's expression while enjoying the meal she and Nojiko cooked.

Nojiko swiped away the sweat on her forehead as she smiled at the sight of the dishes they made. Nojiko was rather proud of the result, she had a soft expression on her face.

"I will bring Izan to the dinner table, go and bring your sister." After Jiutian said that, she turned around and walked towards where Izan's bedroom was.

The closer Jiutian came to Izan, the more of a heavy sensation she felt. Since the moment Jiutian met Izan, their souls bonded. What Izan felt, Jiutian could feel it too. With heavy steps, Jiutian walked without hesitation. At one point, Jiutian felt like her heart weighting several tons.

A frown appeared on Jiutian's face as she quickened her pace and arrived in front of the door. She opened it and walked in the dark room, staring at Izan laying on the bed with an empty expression as he was staring towards the ceiling.

Izan's expression didn't change when Jiutian came inside the room, nor was he shocked at all because he could feel her presence.

With a heavy sigh, Izan's mouth opened. "I finally understand…" A hoa.r.s.e voice came out from Izan's mouth as he was still staring at the ceiling without any expressions.

Jiutian didn't speak, but she was shocked at Izan's condition.

"I understand the weight…" Izan slowly raised his chest as he turned his head towards Jiutian. "The weight to rule isn't small…" Izan's voice was hoa.r.s.e, but there was a tinge of determination and dominance in it, which even made Jiutian shocked.

"It was my dream, but my thoughts were shallow… but, no more…!" Izan's slowly stood up from his bed and started walking towards Jiutian in a slow pace. "It will be mine. I want it all." Izan blurted out as he was staring at Jiutian. Izan had felt that Jiutian had been worried about him all the time he was laying on the bed. With the trust she had in him, Izan couldn't help but be angry at himself.

"Jiutian, I will not hesitate any longer. I will walk forward, obtaining the things I want and kill those who are in my path. But, I will need your help. Jiutian, will you help me…?" Izan's voice sounded out throughout the whole room, by the time he finished speaking, Izan was standing in front of Jiutian. His eyes were watching Jiutian carefully, not wanting to miss anything.

Jiutian was slightly shocked, but that pa.s.sed away swiftly as she smiled brightly with her teeth showing. Her eyes turned into crescent as she couldn't help but squint her eyes as she pounced towards Izan for a hug.

"I am already yours, I will always help you." Jiutian's voice was slightly trembling, it was because of Izan was finally willing to entrust himself to her.

Jiutian and Izan were in each other's embrace for ten whole minutes in silence.

"Izan, you did a good job in picking up Nojiko, she's a good chef." Jiutian chuckled slightly as she continued enjoying the warmth of Izan's body and his aromatic scent.

Izan chuckled in reply as he hugged Jiutian with care. "Don't try it, I know that Nojiko only helped you. If it's a great meal, I will reward you…" Izan smiled lightly as he slowly escaped Jiutian's hug and held her hand.

"Hehe, I am looking forward for my reward." Jiutian had a smug look on her face as she thought of the reward Izan might give her.

"Whew, you're rather c.o.c.ky, aren't you? What if I don't like your cooking then?" Izan raised his eyebrows slightly as he laughed happily.

"Haha, that won't ever happen." Jiutian laughed out loud before a smug expression appeared on her face.

"Still, if you don't like it, you can punish me if you want to do that." With that, Jiutian's expression changed into a smile as she watched Izan's stupefied expression.
