Chapter 557 My Brothers’ Boss’s Boss is Really Awesome
"I know that people like us can't be trusted."

"Alas, there should be no hope."

"Why on earth did those Imperial dogs arrest us? We are just scavengers, not wanted criminals. Is it against the law to pick up garbage?"

"My brother really came to save me. I have asked him for help three times and he must have believed it." Zorro explained, trying to sit up.

Ask for help three times? You must believe it? Everyone was too tired to complain.

"How strong is your brother?" the goblin next to him asked in a harsh tone.

"A-level..." Zoro struggled to speak, gasping for breath.

"F**k, what's the use of A-level? This is an entire formation of the Wandering Legion, A-level life forms, there are seven of them!"

"Don't worry, my brother is not good, but his boss is very powerful..." Zoro didn't say a word this time, and continued: "To be more precise, his boss's boss is very powerful."

There was silence all around. After a moment, a cold laugh suddenly rang out: "How powerful are you?"

"Well..." Zoro hesitated, "It's hard to say now, but it's very powerful anyway."

This response immediately caused a burst of sneers, "If you are so powerful, then why did your brother, the boss, come to save you? You are just a B-level life form, what value do you have?"

"Just because your brother follows his younger brother, he has to offend the empire for you?"

"believe or not."

Zoro was feeling unwell and didn't bother to say anything more.

Suddenly, rainbow-colored noise exploded on his retina, and a large number of jailbreak plans, both true and false, roared in his mind at the same time.

He saw himself being cut into pieces by laser seven days later.

He saw the scene of successfully breaking through the prison ship and escaping again, and he also saw the scene of himself being captured again.

All possibilities carry an equally strong sense of reality, and seem destined to happen in the future.

A large amount of information was intertwined in his mind, and he felt like his head was about to explode.

Everything in front of me was hazy, and the sounds around me gradually became quieter.

"What's wrong with this guy?"

Everyone looked at each other, looking at Zorro, who was lying on the ground with blood coming out of all his orifices and almost not breathing.

"This... won't make you die of shame..."

"Didn't what I said just now hurt him too much? He was able to escape three times in a row, which is quite impressive..."

Everyone was muttering to each other, and at that moment, the cabin suddenly shook, accompanied by a loud roar, and everyone staggered.

Some people bumped into the railings, sparking electric arcs and screaming in pain.

"What happened? Did something happen?" Everyone was confused and puzzled, and then they looked at Zorro, whose life or death was unknown.

"Could it be..."

In the fleet's main ship, a group of commanders looked solemnly at the virtual screen in front of them, and alarms continued to sound.

The holographic star map twitched into a sharp polyhedron, and the blood-red alarm light cast a jumping shadow on the face of each commander.

The subordinate hurriedly reported, "Captain Curtis, someone has intercepted our dimensional jump..."

"Who dares to attack the Empire's fleet?" Curtis looked grim, frowning, and had already issued a series of instructions, "Enter emergency defense mode, build a regional defense array, and charge all main guns..."

"captain!"

The commander standing in front of the porthole suddenly shouted that their communication equipment had been cut off and they could only observe with the naked eye.

Curtis' figure flashed and he came to the porthole, his expression changed drastically.

I saw a row of standard warships suddenly appearing in the surrounding dimensional space. The armor surfaces that refracted cold light were actually covered with dense energy cracks, and every gap was gushing with blue-purple space turbulence.

The thrusters at the rear of the battleship, which had not yet been completely extinguished, were spewing out purple flames, and a large number of combat mechanical bodies filed out from them, densely packed and covering the sky.

"That is..." He immediately locked onto a logo on the left side of a warship, a half-clenched metal hand. After a brief thought, he locked onto the target and said in astonishment: "The Mechanical Royal Court?"

"The Mechanical Court?"

The surrounding combat commanders all looked over and asked in amazement, "What about the forces under Qinglong's command?"

"Why would they suddenly attack us?"

The commanders, who had not been too panicked at first, began to feel uneasy.

Immediately afterwards, eight mechanical bodies emitting strong energy aura flew out. Curtis's expression tensed and his face turned pale. "S-class mechanical bodies, eight of them..."

This scale of attack clearly shows that they are here to wipe them out.

"This is the Mechanical Royal Court. Friends from the Empire, please don't be nervous..." A cold mechanical voice suddenly sounded in the communication signal.

"We have no ill intentions. We just want to take back a person from you, a member of the Mechanical King Court."

"Just for one person?" Curtis paused.

There was total silence in the cabin, and everyone was confused.

Those they have captured during this period were all scavengers, so there shouldn't be any important people.

He adjusted his mood and said in a deep voice: "Friends of the Mechanical Royal Court, we are willing to cooperate. Please provide the information and we will hand the person over."

drop--
As soon as he finished speaking, a piece of information was passed over.

"Zorro?" Curtis looked at the face on the screen and felt vaguely familiar.

"…He seems to have escaped from prison three times. He is indeed not a simple person. It turns out that he is from the Mechanical King Court…"

Hearing the noise from the people around him, Curtis suddenly remembered that this guy was indeed a little special.

He hesitated for a moment and said, "I didn't know this person was from the Mechanical King's Court. This is a misunderstanding. I will let him go now."

He signaled with his eyes, and the commander next to him immediately gave orders.

In the prison cabin, everyone was still confused, and they seemed to be able to sense that the battleship was still stationary.

Buzz--the hatch opened again.

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw Joseph who had taken off his combat armor. However, his face looked a little ugly and there was a large group of soldiers following behind him.

He walked quickly towards a cell, and when he saw Zorro lying on the ground, his life or death unknown, his expression changed drastically, and his voice was a little panicked: "Quick, quick, go save him."

The soldiers behind him were in a panic. Some of them were obviously medical soldiers. They quickly opened the hatch and walked in, and methodically removed the blockade device on Zorro.

And began to inject various recovery potions.

There was silence in the cell. Everyone stared at the strange scene in front of them with their eyes fixed on it, their throats rolling.

An irresistible guess emerged in my mind——
The boss of his brother’s boss really came?
Are you so loyal?

Perhaps Zorro was not destined to die. After a few minutes of rescue, he suddenly coughed up blood.

He suddenly jumped up from the ground, his face still a little dazed, and immediately assumed a fighting stance.

But the severe pain in his muscles made it difficult for him to maintain.

However, when he saw Joseph with a serious expression and the medical soldiers around him examining his body.

He frowned, "Let... let me guess, someone came to save me?" "Since you are from the Mechanical Court, why didn't you say it earlier?" Joseph said coldly.

"The Mechanical Court?"

When the people around heard the name, they all took a deep breath. Of course, they knew this rapidly rising new force.

Backed by the super-big shot Qinglong, the master craftsman, the leader is his student Li Ming, who is also very famous and is known as the person with the highest development potential in the interstellar.

Zoro is from the Mechanical Court? That doesn't match what he said before.

Suddenly, everyone's faces froze.

The boss of the brothers’ boss, could it be Qinglong?

This big guy is so easy to talk to, he is willing to come to rescue?
"Let's go." Joseph said in a deep voice.

Zorro shook his body and restrained his expression. He did not have the slightest intention of taking advantage of the situation to bully others, nor did he take the opportunity to mock. He just followed silently.

Now, the most important thing is to leave here first, he is still in someone else's hands.

"Zorro, don't forget me..."

"Save us..."

Seeing Zorro leaving here surrounded by a group of people, there was a sudden roar of applause from all around.

Following Joseph onto the small aircraft, the bluish-white air wave blasted out of the engine nozzle and flowed out of the ship's mouth.

The scenes on both sides made his breath stop. Mechanical bodies like a sky curtain were lingering around the Imperial Fleet, silent and yet like a star ring belt.

The most eye-catching thing is the eight mechanical bodies that exude a strong energy aura, and the gushing energy turbulence forms a coronal ring.

His temples were throbbing with pain as the overload of energy radiation in the air was penetrating the hull of the aircraft. You could also call it the pressure from a higher life form.

"With such a big scene, does that bastard Robin have such a big face?"

Zoro swallowed, feeling sour in his heart. He knew that Robin had some secrets, so he thought Qinglong had bad intentions in capturing him.

But now, it seems different from what he imagined, and it seems that he is quite valued.

Joseph's face was solemn. From the first time Zorro was captured to the last time he was captured, he was the one who carried out the execution. The fact that his superiors asked him to escort him was self-evident.

They didn't know Zorro's exact identity, but if he was honorable, then he was making amends.

"Don't worry, Imperial dog. Even though you beat me up pretty hard, you were just following orders. I won't take your life."

Zorro's voice came from behind, and Joseph's face changed. Following the command of the Mechanical Royal Court, he drove the aircraft to dock with a warship.

When Zorro came down, he saw Robin standing on the platform, wearing a custom-made combat uniform and looking like a decent human being.

"Fuck!" After holding it in for a long time, Zorro couldn't help but squeeze out a word from between his teeth.

"Haha..." Robin grinned and looked at Zorro who seemed to have suffered a serious injury. He didn't care. Instead, he said with a tut: "It seems that you haven't been doing well recently."

"You tm..." Zoro's face changed, he walked up quickly and whispered, "You are awesome, let me ask you one more favor, my men are still in their hands, can you take them over as well?"

Robin's face twitched slightly, "Fuck, why didn't you say so earlier."

"Aren't these all your people? The people under my command are all small characters and unimportant." Zorro urged.

"Who told you that these are all my people?" Robin said with an unpleasant expression. "The empire also has to maintain its dignity. Surrounding them is already a disgrace enough."

"Now they are going back on their word and asking for another group of people. Isn't this a slap in their face?"

"Besides, I can't make my own decisions. These machines won't listen to me."

Zorro was still worthy of his and Li Ming's help, but he had only met a few of Zorro's men and didn't care about them at all, let alone go to Li Ming to beg for mercy.

Zorro's face changed, and he gritted his teeth and said, "You talk to him. There is something in my body. As long as he is willing to rescue my men, he can do whatever he wants to me, even if it means dissecting me."

"You..." Robin's face changed slightly, but a voice came from the side, "Okay."

The bright blue light intertwined, and it was Li Ming's virtual projection that descended. He looked Zorro up and down, "You are a responsible boss. Remember what you said."

Zoro was stunned for a moment, took a deep breath, ignored Robin's signal, and nodded heavily.

Li Ming immediately issued an order, "Seize the Empire's fleet and don't let anyone escape."

The response in the “Yes…” channel was brief and powerful.

Zoro widened his eyes and looked at Robin. Is it that simple?
Robin snorted coldly, he is the boss, you idiot, think about yourself.

Li Ming then looked at Zorro with an indifferent expression: "I will send someone to escort you back as soon as possible. I know you have some special abilities, but I remind you that it is best to appear in front of me intact."

"Uh..." Zoro was stunned, his face embarrassed, "Um, Boss Li Ming, can you let me think about what you just said?"

Li Ming ignored him and the projection disappeared.

A shadow covered the two of them, and at some point, an S-class mechanical body riding a mechanical warhorse appeared behind them.

Zoro turned around stiffly, his cheeks twitching as he managed a forced smile.

It didn't take too long to return from the dimensional world.

Zoro was nervous all the way, and he was still asking questions until he came out of the dimensional portal.

“…I don’t mind dissecting me, but can you please spare my life?” Zorro followed Robin and boarded a small flying vehicle.

I didn't even have time to appreciate the magnificent man-made planets around me; I was filled with anxiety.

"Are you scared now? How did you agree to this in the first place?" Robin sneered.

"…Who knew it was so simple? After all, it was the Empire. I thought it would take some effort, but it turned out to be just a matter of a word." Zoro looked dejected and helpless.

Robin said indifferently: "Let's just pray that the thing in your body can be easily taken out."

His face was filled with sadness, and he added, "I'm afraid that's impossible. The Empire's strict testing measures didn't detect any clues. How can it be easily taken out?"

Robin glanced at him. He was quite curious about the thing in Zorro's body, but he restrained himself and never asked.

"arrive…"

Soon after, the two arrived at the star base and, led by the mechanical body, went straight into the Heavenly Palace.

Zoro looked left and right along the way, his face full of envy: "This is the boss's base."

"Don't make jokes later." Robin warned. Zorro also knew the seriousness of the matter and nodded quickly.

Stepping into the splendid highest hall, Zorro met Li Ming, the extremely young but already outstanding life form with the highest potential for interstellar development, Qinglong's student.

Quite handsome.

He looked at her cautiously, but saw that the other person's eyes were also on him, like a bottomless pool, calm and serene.

Then he slowly stretched out his hand.

What kind of etiquette is this?
Zoro felt a little embarrassed and hesitated for a moment. Just as he was about to step forward, his body suddenly stiffened.

As he looked horrified, a bright blue light flew out from his chest and slowly fell into the other person's hands.

Smooth and natural, as if it was supposed to be in the other person's hands.
