Chapter 289: The Slavery Contract! 

Black Pearl.

deck.

"If you want to leave, just leave."

"You have ships anyway, don't you."

"It's just that I didn't expect that we would part so soon."

"Thinking about it, I really feel a little regretful."

Rifan shrugged and said with a little regret.

"Regret?"

Buggy blinked, a little surprised by what Rifan said.

But soon, he smiled happily.

"Hahaha, I think so too."

"Rifan, when I first met you, I felt that we were very speculative."

"If it wasn't for our other arrangements, I wouldn't want to be separated from you so soon."

Buggy put his hands on his hips, and the more he talked, the more excited he became.

To be honest, he really didn't want to break up so soon.

After all, staying with Rifan, they do not need to worry about the Marine's pursuit to a certain extent.

It's just that the legend of the Devil's Triangle sea area is too terrifying, and there are ghosts and zombies in the legend.

As a coward, he really didn't dare to take his own people to sail into the Devil's Triangle sea area.

While laughing, Buggy took a special look at Gion, Hina and the others.

It's like saying, 'I, Buggy, is Rifan's friend, so you Marines will treat me like Rifan, Buggy-sama from now on!"

However, he didn't notice at all.

When Rifan said the word 'regret', he didn't look at him.

Instead, he looked at Ayane who was walking from the side and said.

"As expected of Captain Buggy, he was able to make that 'Black Mist' Rifan say such a thing!"

"Captain Buggy is so powerful, even Rifan, who offered a reward of 1 billion Berry, was impressed by his charm!"

"Now I'm more and more grateful that I can join the Buggy Pirates!"

Apparently, the rest of the Buggy Pirates also misunderstood what Rifan meant.

They raised their hands and cheered.

"You misunderstood, Buggy."

"I have no regrets about breaking up with you or anything."

"It's Ayane who makes me feel sorry for parting with."

After Rifan glanced at Buggy, he turned his head to look at Ayane who walked up to him.

After the words fell, Buggy petrified on the spot.

He even began to worry that Rifan would not let Ayane leave the Black Pearl.

In this way, he will lose a reliable helper.

But fortunately, Ayane's answer soon let him breathe a sigh of relief.

"The separation is only temporary, I think we will meet again later, Rifan."

Ayane raised her head, looked up at Rifan, and said.

She had no problem with Buggy's suggestion to leave.

Originally, she came here to give the Devil Fruit to Rifan and to use Rifan's influence to prevent the Marine guerrillas from arresting them.

Now the Devil Fruit has been handed over successfully.

The Marine guerrillas were also captured by Rifan.

So now is the time to leave.

"I hope it won't be too long before we meet."

Rifan patted Ayane on the shoulder, then turned to look at Kasumi:

"And you, miss."

"Your captain was killed by me."

"You should be free now."

"How about it, just make up your mind whether you want it or not."

"Come to work on my ship?"

"Don't worry, I will give you a good salary."

Hearing this, Kasumi looked at Rifan's face, then at Ayane's face, and finally shook her head.

"Not yet, Rifan."

"If possible, I want to leave with Ayane and his crew."

In Kasumi's view, Rifan is the reincarnator of another country after all.

And Rifan was unwilling to terminate the contract with Ayane, and instead wanted to sign a contract with her, so she naturally had no reason to stay.

If possible, she would also like to have a good chat with Ayane while coming to this dungeon space.

However, the idea is good.

But it doesn't mean that Ayane will agree.

"Don't even think about leaving with us."

"If you come to my pirate group, you will only drag me back."

Ayane looked at Kasumi with an extremely cold expression at this moment.

"Ayane..."

Kasumi pursed her lips, her expression slightly complicated.

Buggy looked at Kasumi, then at Ayane.

Reason tells him that it is best not to intervene between these two women.

So, he waved to the members of the Buggy Pirates behind him, and led them back a few steps away from Ayane and Kasumi.

"If you're going to board the Buggy Pirates' ship, try to beat me."

"If you can't even defeat me, it means that what I said is right, you will only drag me back."

Ayane pulled out the short sword from her waist, and said to Kasumi in a cold voice.

Seeing this scene, Kasumi's expression became more complicated, and a faint sadness emerged from her heart.

"Kasumi, let's have a chat."

Seeing this, Rifan put his arms around Kasumi's shoulders, and led her to jump into the small room on the observation deck at the highest point of the sail.

"Rifan, what do you want?"

Kasumi looked at the closed environment around her, and looked at Rifan with some doubts.

"Well... can you please take off your coat first?"

Rifan rubbed his nose, smiled and pointed to the ninja suit Kasumi was wearing.

"If it's about your drinks, please talk about it later."

Hearing this, Kasumi raised her eyebrows and said quietly.

Inside her jacket, the ninja suit, there were only a couple of bandages left.

At that time, she was busy leaving with Ayane.

So there's nothing under her coat except the bandage. 

"Don't worry, this time it's not about special ointments and drinks."

"What I want to tell you is about you and Ayane."

Rifan lightly raised his palm, patted Kasumi on the shoulder, and said with a light smile.

"Not about the special ointment?"

Kasumi frowned, and after noticing Rifan winking at her, she immediately understood what Rifan meant.

"Okay." 

Kasumi nodded slightly, and untied the coat on her body, leaving only a few bandages around her chest.

Perhaps it was because the bandage was wrapped too tightly and the squeezing force was too strong.

Some traces of moisture have already appeared on the bandage.

Similarly, following Kasumi's actions, the live broadcast room of the two was temporarily plunged into darkness.

This made the audience watching Rifan and Kasumi's live broadcast immediately lament.

The elders from Kasumi's Ninja Village also frowned tightly.

"Rifan, what do you want to talk about?"

"Now your live broadcast room and mine are all black."

"I think you can rest assured."

After confirming the black screen in the live broadcast room on her personal panel, Kasumi spoke to Rifan.

As for why Rifan didn't blacken the screen in the live broadcast room by himself, but let her play tricks.

Kasumi didn't even think about it.

She knew in her heart that this was also a way for Rifan to take advantage of her. 

But in order to be able to hear what Rifan had to say, Kasumi couldn't care less.

"Kasumi, I understand that you want to follow Ayane and try to protect her."

"But you have to understand her difficulties."

"After all, you are a traitor. In theory, Ayane has to chase you down."

"Your Ninja Village should be like this right?"

"And now, her reincarnator ranking is higher than yours."

"In other words, she is stronger than you."

"On my ship, she won't do anything to you, and can talk to you normally without a problem."

"After all, with me here, she has a reason to give to your ninja village higher ups ."

"But you left with her, and your strength is still lower than hers."

"Under such circumstances, if she still fails to kill you."

"She has no way to explain it in Ninja Village."

"You also know that unless the live broadcast room is blacked out, you, me, and Ayane's actions will not be seen."

"You left with the Buggy Pirates, it's impossible to keep the live broadcast room on a black screen all the time, right?"

"I know Ayane cares about you but she needs to keep it hidden."

"You should be able to guess how she will be treated in Ninja Village if they show it, right?"

Rifan sat down cross-legged, raised his head and said to Kasumi in front of him.

While speaking, his gaze sized up Kasumi in front of him wantonly.

I have to say that Rifan was very interested in Kasumi's bandage outfit.

Even, he has already started thinking about asking Nojiko and Robin to make a bandage outfit in the future.

After all, in the past, he hadn't thought of using bandages to decorate the two of them.

"this..."

When Kasumi heard Rifan's words, she immediately frowned.

Obviously, after Rifan's sermon, she also understood the disadvantages of leaving with Ayane.

"I think the reason why Ayane asked you to defeat her, for you to leave with her, on the one hand, she wants you to retreat in spite of difficulties."

"On the other hand, she also wants to remind you to follow her and leave, only if you are stronger than her."

"In this way, even if she can't kill you, she won't be punished at Ninja Village."

Rifan continued.

"Strength... But, with my current strength, it's very difficult to defeat Ayane…"

Kasumi pursed her lips and said.

"Indeed, in terms of hard power, you are indeed weaker than Ayane."

"As far as talent is concerned, although your 'charm' talent can be considered powerful, even women can be swayed by you to a certain extent."

"But for those with strong willpower, the power of this charm is slightly weaker."

"If the person you charm is much stronger than you, the power of charm will be further reduced or become useless."

"You know Ayane's willpower, she has always been cold, and she has the power of Haki herself."

"So I don't think you can stand a chance against her."

"By the way, do you want to sit down as we talk?"

"You keep standing, although the view from my side is good, but if I keep looking at it like this, my heartbeat will keep speeding up."

Rifan said, pointing to Kasumi's rather large chest staining her bandage with white milk.

Kasumi was originally thinking about what Rifan said about strength, when he suddenly shifted the topic to the scenery, Kasumi was stunned for a moment.

Later, she shook her head, knelt down in front of Rifan, and put her hands on her above the knee.

"Damn, I miscalculated, from this angle, you are more beautiful."

Rifan rubbed his nose, sighed and looked at Kasumi who was facing him.

"Rifan, please stop joking. Compared to the Empress, I think I am far behind." 

"Even against the other female crew members on your ship, I don't have an advantage."

Kasumi shook her head and said in a low voice.

Kasumi didn't pay much attention to her appearance, but after getting the talent of 'charm', she also made a clear evaluation of herself.

If she succeeds in displaying the talent of charm, she can indeed be more attractive than some ordinary beauties in the dungeon world.

But after seeing Nojiko turned into the empress Hancock and showing her charm, she also understands that even if she uses the talent of charm, she will not be more attractive than Hancock

Of course, this is only the case of ordinary use of the charm talent.

If she directly transforms the talent of 'charm' into the spiritual energy of charming people's mind and invades the enemy's body.

Her charm in the eyes of the enemy will also be further improved.

Of course, this also depends on the situation where her emotional energy can work.

"Rifan, since you said this all to me."

"You should have some way."

"Or, you want to make a deal with me?"

After thinking for a while, Kasumi asked Rifan.

"As expected of Miss Kasumi, you're really smart."

"I'm not hiding it anymore."

"Kasumi, I like you very much."

"Of course, I'm not just interested in your beauty."

"I also like your ability and character very much."

"Our hometown is being threatened by monsters from the abyss."

"If possible, I also want to turn some potential and trustworthy reincarnators from other countries into my strength.

"Kasumi, anyway, you are a traitor, even if you become my partner, it's no big deal."

"It's better to make a conditional slavery contract with me."

"If you can complete the slavery contract, I will give you freedom, if you cannot complete the slavery contract, you will become my slave."

"Of course, the title of slave is only given by the copy space."

"If you become my slave, I will treat you as my partner."

"Although I usually take some advantage, you don't have to worry that I will really attack you, unless you like me, haha."

"Ayane should have told you about my character, but you might not believe me."

"But you should believe her words." 

Rifan said, crossing his legs and moving forward.

In an instant, the distance between Kasumi's knees was less than one centimeter.

After listening to Rifan's words, Kasumi fell into a long thought.

Rifan was not in a hurry, and waited quietly while admiring the beauty of Kasumi in front of him.

Suddenly, Kasumi raised her head and looked at Rifan seriously.

"Rifan, can you tell me the details of the contract?"
