Chapter 144 - 145: JoJo Although Irimi didn't get along with Eto, this time her view was surprisingly consistent with hers. "Peace talks with the Washuu clan?" She shook her head and said, "I know you want to achieve victory without bloodshed, but this move will only waste time." "Let's not even talk about whether we have the bargaining chips for peace talks, will the other side even accept it?" Putting herself in their shoes, if she were a member of the Washuu clan, she absolutely wouldn't accept such a peace talk proposal. The Washuu clan enjoyed so many privileges, how could they possibly give those up so easily? The idea of peace talks is just too naive. Jotaro naturally understood this point. From the beginning, he never had any intention of peace talks. The reason for doing this, was because he wanted to mislead the Washuu clan. If the other side thought he was an idiot, that would be even better. The most crucial point, for this kind of peace talk, it's impossible not to have high-ranking humans present as witnesses. The Washuu clan would definitely send their own upper echelon, and their powerful military force, the CCG, would be of no use in the peace talks. To avoid exposing their identity, the Washuu might not even inform the CCG about this peace talk. If they wanted to eliminate this troublesome Jotaro, they would surely send out their own organization, that mysterious group, V. This was a great opportunity to wipe out the Washuu clan in one sweep. After Jotaro's explanation, Irimi fell silent. Since he had considered everything so thoroughly, her concerns were indeed a bit unnecessary. "However, what you said is also correct. The Washuu might not accept the proposal." Irimi said they didn't have bargaining chips, Jotaro fully agreed with that. After all, they had just started out, and hadn't even revealed themselves publicly. If he were someone from the Washuu clan, knowing there was such a weak opponent, he would definitely wipe them out with force directly. Jotaro certainly didn't fear the Washuu clan using force, he just didn't want things to become too troublesome. A decapitation operation, bloodless, and if there was a method to reduce the death rate, he certainly wouldn't let his subordinates make unnecessary sacrifices. "Mm, they might directly send CCG to eliminate us." Irimi looked at Jotaro and, seeing his calm and collected demeanor, knew he was confident in making the Washuu accept peace talks. "Could it be you've already thought of a plan?" Jotaro said, "Disintegrate the power of the Washuu clan." Besides military strength, to establish solid rule one also needed political means, economic means, cultural means, diplomatic means, and so on. The secret behind the Washuu clan's long-lasting strength was not just their control of the CCG and "V," but also their profound influence on society. To change this world, eliminating the Washuu alone is far from enough. One must completely destroy the system they built over hundreds of years, then reshuffle the cards, and guide things toward a better direction. Eto said, "That's exactly why I chose to become a writer." She just wanted to change the ingrained ideology between ghouls and humans. Spiritual misfortune is more unfortunate than physical misfortune. Understanding Jotaro's thinking, her admiration for him deepened, even her gaze toward him seemed ready to melt. "I already finished writing a novel called The King Bileygr. 'Bileygr' is another name of Odin in Norse mythology, meaning the one missing an eye." Eto interlocked her fingers and spoke eloquently. "In other words, the one-eyed king! I've always believed that those who can lead ghouls toward the future must be one-eyed." "The protagonist of this book is one-eyed, a nameless king who leads ghouls to overthrow the organization oppressing them." Irimi interrupted her, "Sorry, we're not the least bit interested in the plot of your book." "Also, could you please put your clothes on?" Walking back and forth naked in front of their leader, what kind of conduct was this? Eto ignored her and continued, "I count as a somewhat famous writer. I've always wanted to find the right opportunity to publish this book." The King Bileygr was a metaphor for the true mastermind behind CCG, the Washuu clan. Anyone observant would be able to pick up on that. To let more people know the truth, she'd been desperately writing books and expanding her influence. She was being too modest. The pen name "Takatsuki Sen" had already become a mark of quality, her fans were countless. If she published this book, no doubt it would cause a sensation in society. "Although I'm one-eyed, I don't think of myself as king." After a bitter smile, Eto said very seriously, "This book is just a prelude to prepare the throne for the true king!" "It's just a pity that I've been wrong all along." She sighed softly, and her mesmerizing eyes were now filled entirely with Jotaro's figure. "The true king is not one-eyed." "It's you!" She suddenly pounced forward, trying to hug Jotaro, that expression looked like a crazed fangirl. However, what greeted her was Jotaro's merciless iron fist. Climbing awkwardly from the ground, Eto rubbed her somewhat aching right cheek. If it weren't for ghoul regeneration, this punch might have disfigured her. "This book can, to a certain degree, disintegrate the power of the Washuu clan." Eto looked at Jotaro with resentment. "It might even win you a group of human supporters." "But since the protagonist has changed, I'll need to spend some time revising it." Jotaro slightly nodded. Having lived in this world for so long, he naturally knew about the famous writer Takatsuki Sen. He didn't expect that this ghoul in front of him had that identity. With her influence, she really could provide some help. However, publishing this book wasn't going to be as easy as imagined. Such a treasonous work, no publisher would dare take the risk to print it. In the end, if he wanted to publish it, he might have to pay out of his own pocket. Seems like it's time to implement that plan. A trace of nostalgia flashed in Jotaro's eyes. "But if you're changing the story, the title must change too." Irimi glanced at the suddenly inspired, idea-overflowing Eto and curled her lip as she reminded. Eto suddenly paused, her smile faded, and she nodded. "Mm, the protagonist is no longer the One-Eyed King. Continuing to use The King Bileygr as the name is very inappropriate." She fell into thought, her gaze fixed on Jotaro. The king was no longer one-eyed, it was him. The protagonist of the story wasn't an unknown king anymore, but... "Kujo Jotaro." Eto clapped her hands excitedly and said, "Both the names 'Kujo' and 'Jotaro' start with the 'Jo' sound, I've decided!" "This book will be called JoJo!" JoJo, not only the name of this book, but also the name of the protagonist. "Ridiculous." Irimi smiled and shook her head. "But it's unexpectedly fitting." "Yare yare..." Hearing this name, Jotaro pressed down his hat, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. This title really is nostalgic. ═❀═❀═❀═❀═❀═❀═ patreon.com/XenosX ????Joining Patreon keeps me motivated and eager to work diligently, so please consider joining.????
