I am a boss in the world of nine uncles

The edge of the universe.

Saka Star.

A man with short silver hair, wearing a gold and green robe, who looked somewhat old but was actually full of vigor, stood on the arena stands, watching the Hulk below successfully slaughter his opponent. He couldn't help but clench his fists and let out a cheer.

But after a brief moment of excitement and pleasure, the intense boredom that he found so irritating returned, causing his expression to turn cold and making him appear somewhat unpredictable.

"Master, someone wants to see you." At this moment, a subordinate tiptoed to his side and whispered.

"Who?" the grandmaster asked casually.

“Odin, the King and Crown Prince of Asgard,” the subordinate replied.

"Who did you say?" A long-haired man in a green robe suddenly stood up from a corner of the stands.

“Odin, Thor,” the subordinate said.

The long-haired man chuckled dryly, "Grandmaster, since you have guests, I'll be leaving now."

"What is your relationship with them, and why are you avoiding them?"

The master did not agree to his request, but instead raised an eyebrow and asked.

Long-haired man: "..."

"Loki, is this a difficult question to answer?" the Grandmaster pressed.

Loki let out a soft breath and said, "Odin is my father, and Thor is my brother, but for me, being with them would bring some unpredictable trouble."

The master smiled and said, "With me, you don't need to worry about any trouble."

Having said that, he didn't give Loki another chance and directly told his subordinates, "Bring my guest who has come from afar over here."

The subordinate nodded and quickly walked out of the observation deck.

Not long after.

Qin Yao and Uncle Jiu stepped into the observation deck, which resembled a luxurious private box, side by side. They looked up and saw Luo Ji standing next to a silver-haired old man with a bright smile.

"I don't think you two came here to follow me, do you?" Loki asked before the two could speak.

Qin Yao nodded slightly: "How did you end up here?"

Compared to the original storyline, Asgard has undergone tremendous changes, not to mention the Asgardians, as revealed in Thor: The Dark World.

Under these circumstances, Loki still ended up on Sakaar; it can only be described as fate...

"That's not important. Please pretend I don't exist," Loki said, waving his hand.

Qin Yao was speechless, then looked at the Grandmaster's face: "Thor sends his greetings."

Uncle Nine followed up with, "Odin sends his greetings."

The master looked at the father and son with great interest and asked, "What brings you here?"

Qin Yao smiled slightly: "May I ask if you are troubled by boredom?"

The master asked in surprise, "How did you know I was suffering from boredom?"

Without hesitation, Qin Yao replied, "Because you are strong enough, it's lonely at the top."

The master couldn't help but chuckle: "Thinking about it carefully, that reason does make some sense; so, what purpose do you intend to achieve by taking advantage of my boredom?"

Qin Yao raised his hand and summoned half of the Aether particles, letting them hover in the air above his palm: "You should have heard of the Reality Stone, right?"

The Grandmaster's smile vanished as he stared at the particles that resembled red quicksand, and asked, "Is this the Reality Stone?"

"It is half of the Reality Gem."

Qin Yao said, "If you could obtain the complete Reality Stone, with your power, you could definitely modify reality at will, which would probably be quite interesting."

The master, experienced and shrewd, instantly understood his meaning: "Where is the other half of the Reality Gem?"

"In Asgard, in the hands of Hela, the goddess of death," Qin Yao said.

The master said, "So, you want me to help you deal with Hela? Since you've investigated me, you should know that I don't like war, and I especially don't like fighting to the death. Although, Hela, the goddess of death, is not a threat to me."

“I do know that,” Qin Yao nodded. “That’s why I didn’t dare to ask you to participate in the war; I only wanted to borrow troops.”

"How much should I borrow?" the master asked.

"The more the better."

“That won’t do,” the Grandmaster said. “At most, I can lend you those alien wanderers in the arena.”

Qin Yao said, "I can recruit all the soldiers of this level myself. Why should I give up half of the Reality Gem and promise to get the other half for you?"

Grandmaster: "..."

"Roar!"

In the midst of the silence, the Hulk in the arena suddenly let out a deafening roar, instantly igniting the passion of countless spectators in the stands.

Thunderous applause and cheers filled the air, bringing a smile to the Hulk's face.

He enjoys the limelight, he enjoys people cheering for him, and even applauding and worshipping him.

That's why, even though he knew he was like a wild beast in the arena, he was unwilling to leave.

Inside the central grandstand.

The Grandmaster was awakened by the Hulk's roar and suddenly had an idea:

"I came to Sakaar precisely because I didn't want to get involved in the conflicts."

Your attempt to use my elite troops is an attempt to drag me into conflict, which is not a pleasant thing for me.

Even if you offered to give me the Reality Stone.

Qin Yao asked, "So what do you mean?"

"What I mean is, I need more impetus before I can consider your suggestion."

The grandmaster slowly walked to the glass wall, pointed to the Hulk in the arena below, and said, "Therefore, if you can defeat him, I can seriously consider it."

Qin Yao looked down at the Hulk, then suddenly summoned the red and blue Longkui, handed them the Four Fiend Swords, and pointed to the arena, saying, "Please help me defeat that big green guy."

He himself has the ability to defeat the Hulk, but the problem is that he is currently negotiating with the Grandmaster, and an equal relationship is very important.

Before anything was even settled, he went down to "entertain people," immediately revealing the disparity in their relationship. The grandmaster would also feel inferior towards him!
“If it’s just about defeating rather than killing, there’s no need for these two swords.” Long Kui in red looked in the direction he was pointing and suddenly returned the two swords.

Blue-clad Longkui wholeheartedly agreed and returned the divine sword to Qin Yao as well: "The Four Fiend Swords are too murderous and are not suitable for use in martial arts competitions."

Qin Yao smiled and cautioned, "Be careful, he's very strong."

“We specialize in dealing with this kind of opponent,” said Blue-Clad Longkui with a smile.

After saying that, the two of them passed directly through the high-strength hardened glass and were suspended in the air above the arena.

Hulk sensed something, suddenly raised his head, and let out a long howl at the two sisters.

The red-clad Longkui sneered, and with a flick of her hand, she summoned a red divine bow, drew the bow, and shot an arrow, instantly aligning the nine stars.

Hulk immediately swung his hand, directly striking the oncoming arrow.

He had great confidence in his physical defenses and did not believe that the arrow, formed from divine power, could harm him.

"Boom, boom, boom..."

The nine arrows exploded in his palm, the powerful energy causing his hand to tremble and bleed, his face filled with astonishment.

Before he could react, more arrows rained down like a storm, startling him so much that he quickly rolled to a shield, raised it, and used it to shatter the red and blue arrow rain. Inside the central stands.

The master stared intently at the red and blue dragon sunflowers, then suddenly asked, "Those two... they can't be human, can they?"

Qin Yao said, "It used to be, now it's a sword spirit."

The Grandmaster became even more interested and laughed, "If you are willing to give them to me, along with the Reality Gem you promised, I can lend you the most elite legion of Sakaar."

Qin Yao shook his head: "They are sword spirits, but more importantly, they are my friends. I would never trade away my friends to achieve my goals."

The master's smile faltered slightly, and the atmosphere instantly turned quiet.

half an hour.

By using a kite-flying tactic, Red and Blue Dragon Kui successfully exhausted the Hulk, achieving final victory without taking any damage.

The two women's beauty and graceful figures led to cheers from countless male spectators, instantly raising the atmosphere in the stadium to a climax, a stark contrast to the atmosphere in the central stands.

Red and Blue Dragon Sunflower did not enjoy this glory of victory, so after the referee announced the result, she immediately transformed into two beams of red and blue light, passed through the hardened glass, and instantly flashed back to Qin Yao's side.

"Grandmaster?"

Qin Yao smiled and put the two away, then looked at the cosmic-level warlord opposite him.

“I’ll think about it some more… Valkyrie!” the Grandmaster replied, suddenly calling out.

As soon as the words were spoken, a dark-skinned female warrior wearing black armor and with bare arms came forward and respectfully bowed: "Grandmaster."

The Grandmaster smiled slightly, pointed at Qin Yao and Uncle Nine, and said, "Take these two friends around Sakaar and give them a pleasant sightseeing trip."

"Yes."

Valkyrie nodded, then said to the master and apprentice, "Please follow me."

Qin Yao and Uncle Jiu both knew very well that the Grandmaster was still up to no good and intended to use delaying tactics to force them to compromise.

And it was precisely because of this that Qin Yao gradually began to have a plan in mind...

A short while later.

Valkyrie led the master and apprentice to the bustling market street and asked with a smile:

"What are you two more curious about, or what would you like to visit? For example, art, universities, bars, amusement parks, food courts, AI dream factories, etc."

"We'd like to go somewhere suitable for chatting," Qin Yao said with a smile.

Valkyrie paused slightly, "Suitable for chatting?"

“That’s right,” Qin Yao said. “The scenery is beautiful, there are no surveillance cameras, and we won’t be disturbed.”

Valkyrie thought for a moment and said, "Please follow me."

In the blink of an eye.

She led the two to a riverbank and walked slowly on the soft grass: "Is this place alright?"

"Of course," Qin Yao said with satisfaction.

Valkyrie nodded: "Then you two talk, I'll wait for you at the bar at the end of the riverbank."

"No, it's not us talking, it's me who wants to talk to you," Qin Yao said, waving his hand.

Valkyrie looked on in astonishment: "Me?"

At this point, she couldn't help but glance at 'Odin,' wondering if he had recognized her?

"If I'm not mistaken, you must be a Valkyrie from Asgard," Qin Yao asked directly, pointing to the tattoo on her hand.

Valkyrie pursed her lips, and in front of Odin, she finally didn't lie: "It used to be!"

"So, you no longer consider yourself a Valkyrie?" Qin Yao asked.

Valkyrie raised her hands and twirled in front of him: "Your Highness, do I look even half like a Valkyrie now? In fact, I'm just a drunkard!"

"I know you've become like this purely because of your unwillingness to accept defeat and your guilt towards your friends," Qin Yao said in a deep voice.

Valkyrie's pupils dilated: "How did you know?"

Could it be that Hela told him about that battle? But how could that be?

Qin Yao pretended to be serious and said, "Since Hela was reborn, I have looked up a lot of information about her and verified it with my father, and obtained a lot of information."

One of these is that the Asgardian Valkyrie Legion was completely wiped out during the suppression of Hela.

But now you're still alive, and in this state, so it's not hard to guess that you're constantly living in resentment and guilt, and can only numb yourself with alcohol.

Valkyrie looked as if he had seen a ghost.

To deduce one's own situation from a single piece of information... this crown prince's wisdom is truly astonishing.

"Valkyrie, Asgard needs you."

Qin Yao said, "If these words fail to touch your heartstrings, I have another one: Don't you want to take revenge on Hela?"

She killed all your companions and brought you to this state. Don't you hate her?

Valkyrie smiled wryly and said, "Do you know how strong Hela is?"

Qin Yao nodded: "I fought her once, and she's a bit weaker than me."

Valkyrie: "???"

“But that was four years ago. At that time, she had not yet returned to Asgard and had not yet taken control of the power of the divine realm. As for now, she is probably evenly matched,” Qin Yao added.

"Are you sure you're not joking with me?" Valky asked with a strange expression.

Back then, the Valkyrie Legion, Asgard's most powerful armed force, fought against Hela with all its might, only to be slaughtered one by one by her with her flying swords. If it weren't for her comrades risking their lives to save her, she would have died in that battle as well.

Therefore, she not only harbored deep hatred for Hela, but also a fear that she herself was unwilling to admit.

Qin Yao smiled and turned to look at Uncle Nine: "I swear in the name of Odin that everything I just said is true."

Valkyrie paused slightly, then fell silent.

Qin Yao didn't urge them, but waited silently with Uncle Jiu.

He believed that Valkyrie would eventually agree to his request, partly because that was the prevailing trend, and partly because hate lasts longer than love.

The other party may no longer care about the Valkyrie identity they once cherished, but they certainly will not forget their hatred for Hela.

half an hour.

Valkyrie slowly exhaled a breath of stale air, raised her eyes, and asked, "What do you need me to do?"

“Reverse-monitor the Grandmaster and notify me when he is most relaxed,” Qin Yao said.

Valkyrie gasped. "You're not planning to assassinate a Grandmaster, are you?"

"Of course not," Qin Yao said with a smile. "I just want to control him for a while and lend me the elite troops of Sakaar."

Valkyrie frowned and said, "It's not that simple. Grandmasters are very strong, even stronger than Hela. If you can control a Grandmaster, you can completely control Hela."

Qin Yao's smile faded, and he said, "I know that the Grandmaster possesses cosmic-level abilities, almost immortal, but today, I saw his weakness; moreover, unlike Hela, he is not wary of me."

Valkyrie was still somewhat incredulous and pressed, "What weakness?"

Qin Yao said softly, "Greed..." (End of Chapter)
