Fortunately, Luffy was fast enough to instantly transform into light and successfully dodge the attack.
The missile landed in an open area and exploded instantly.
At that moment, a tall figure stood in front of Clara.
Looking at the crying girl, Schwarz immediately released a scarlet light.
[Annihilation begins!]
"Watch out for Luffy! That's Schwarz, the most powerful machine in this area!"
Luffy dismissed this with disdain.
"No matter how powerful it is, can it escape the control of the source code?"
Today must be the day of the National College Entrance Examination (Gaokao). I wish all the candidates the best of luck in getting into their desired universities.
Volume 1: Chapter 153 Clara, you didn't want this either...
Luffy remained completely unfazed by Schwarz's attack.
With a light tap of his finger on the screen in front of him, Swallow, who was originally about to attack Luffy, suddenly stood still.
The mechanic is standing at attention!
At this moment, Clara also noticed Schwarz's unusual behavior, and she quickly ran to Schwarz's side, looking at him with concern.
"Mr. Schwarz, are you alright?"
Clara was extremely anxious as she looked at the motionless Schwarzkopf in front of her.
From the time she could remember, Schwarz had always been by her side; to Clara, Schwarz held the status of family.
Clara was understandably worried when she noticed Schwarz's unusual behavior.
At this moment, Schwarzrod's eyes emitted a dangerous red light.
Unfortunately, due to the influence of the source code, Schwarz could only stand motionless in place, watching Clara's anxious expression.
"Hmph, not bad at all. How about we change Swallow's personality to that of a blonde, arrogant, and defeated woman?"
At this moment, the screen in front of Luffy clearly showed Schwarz's control panel.
Looking at the panel in front of him, Luffy suddenly had a bold idea!
"You really have a twisted sense of humor!"
Seele, standing next to Luffy, couldn't help but complain.
However, the thought of the once fearsome Schwarzkopf becoming a blond, arrogant figure is quite a shock.
Seele is actually quite looking forward to it!
"You're not allowed to bully Mr. Schwarz!"
Upon hearing that Luffy was going to turn Swallow into a blonde, arrogant loser, Clara immediately panicked.
Ignoring the difference in their abilities, he directly stood in front of Luffy.
Despite being terrified, she bravely stepped forward.
"Why does it feel like we've become the villains?"
Upon seeing this scene, Seele couldn't help but complain.
"Are you kidding? Who would dare arrest me?"
Putting aside the fact that the commander of the Silvermane Iron Guard is his girlfriend.
The money that Ruff earned from selling stockings during this period alone accounted for almost 99 percent of Bellberg's total income.
Cocolia has made quite a bit of money through the collaboration.
Even if Luffy said he didn't want to do it anymore, Cocolia wouldn't agree.
It can be said that the entire civil and military affairs of Bellberg are basically in Luffy's hands.
In Belberg, Ruff was practically a local tyrant.
Of course, the main goal now is to build the new factory well.
After all, business is getting better and better, and even if the original three factories work day and night, they are not able to meet the demand.
Therefore, Ruff urgently needs a new factory to solve the order problem.
The lower level is a great place; it's spacious and won't disturb others.
The most crucial point is that land in the lower-level areas is sold cheaply.
For the same area of land, Luffy could basically buy more land in the lower tier than in the upper tier.
If we don't build factories in the lower district, where else can we build them?
With Luffy's buying spree, most of the land in the lower districts has fallen into his hands.
The entire lower area will basically become Luffy's factory in the future.
Once Belleburg's tourism industry develops in the future, Ruff might be able to open the factory for tours and make another fortune!
Luffy is now completely immersed in the fantasy of making a lot of money.
"Please, big brother, let Mr. Schwarzlo go! I'll do anything for you!"
At this point, Clara was already begging Luffy to spare Schwarz.
"anything?"
Upon hearing this, Luffy looked Clara up and down.
White hair and red eyes, perfectly matching the special attack of the Chinese people.
It's possible, but it's too small. If Bronya finds out that I'm practicing Tong (a type of martial arts), I'm afraid I'll be shot dead.
So Luffy simply produced a contract.
"If you want Schwarz to be alright, then sign this contract!"
"This is?"
"This is the factory contract. Once you sign it, you'll work for me obediently for the rest of your life!"
Ikkyu!
"Boss, isn't employing child labor a violation of the Belleberg Act?"
Seele, who was standing nearby, couldn't help but remind her.
Upon hearing this, Luffy shook his head.
"It's okay, I'll go find Cocolia later and ask her to delete this!"
"6!"
Faced with Luffy's behavior, Seele always felt that one day he would be hanging from a lamppost.
However, considering that she was now Luffy's secretary, Seele didn't say much.
The originally righteous girl eventually fell into depravity under Luffy's evil teachings.
Looking at the contract before her, Clara hesitated. Seeing this, Luffy tried to persuade her.
"What's wrong? Don't you want Schwarz to regain his freedom?"
At this moment, Luffy is like a wicked uncle trying to lure a child to see goldfish.
"Or do you want to see Swaro turn into a blonde, arrogant loser?"
"Wow! I understand, Clara will sign it right away. Please don't hurt Mr. Schwarz!"
Hearing this, Clara finally had no choice but to sign her name on the contract.
After retrieving the contract, Luffy nodded in satisfaction upon seeing Clara's signature on it.
"Not bad!"
Having said that, Luffy faithfully broke free from Schwarz's control.
Having regained control, Schwarz immediately shielded Clara behind him, then looked at her with a hint of reproach.
Clara, how could you sign something like that!
"I'm sorry, Mr. Schwarz, Clara just didn't want anything to happen to you!"
Schwarz knew it wasn't Clara's fault, so he turned his attention back to Luffy.
[Human, according to the laws of Belloberg, your contract is invalid, therefore you have no right to interfere with Clara!]
The mechanical voice of Schwarzlo rang out.
However, Ruff disagreed with Schwarz's statement.
[I understand. I'm willing to trade myself for Clara. A mech is far more useful than a human girl!]
Seeing that Luffy remained unmoved, Swallow had no choice but to offer himself in exchange for Clara.
"Are you kidding? I can control you anytime, so why should I agree to your request?"
If Luffy so desires, he can then control Schwarz to work in his factory for the rest of his life.
There's absolutely no need to ask for its opinion.
"You said you wouldn't hurt Mr. Schwarz!"
Hearing Luffy's words, Clara called out anxiously.
Clara believed that since she had signed the contract, Luffy should not attack Swallow anymore.
But the girl underestimated the evil of the adults.
"Hehehe, I only said I wouldn't lay a hand on Swallow, not that I wouldn't control it anymore. Besides, going to work in the factory, how can that be considered harming it!"
Clara panicked when she saw that Luffy was about to go back on his word.
Clara was clearly surprised by Luffy's shamelessness.
Volume 1: Chapter 154 Inviting Clara
Seeing Luffy constantly bullying Clara, Seele, who was standing nearby, could no longer stand it.
So he moved closer to Luffy and said...
"Boss, maybe we should just let it go. It won't sound good if word gets out that we're bullying a little girl!"
When Clara saw Seele speak up for her, she gave her a grateful look.
"Alright then, for Seele's sake, I'll let you off this time!"
Upon hearing this, Clara also showed a hint of surprise.
"Thank you very much, Sister Xi'er!"
Clara also expressed her gratitude to Seele for speaking up for her.
"Alright, stop chatting here and get out of here right now. This is my territory now!"
Upon hearing Luffy's words of shooing him away, Schwarzlo remained silent for a moment before nodding.
【I understand, we'll move out as soon as possible!】
There was nothing we could do; we couldn't win a fight, and they were in the right too.
It seems the only option now is to take Clara and find another home.
"Mr. Schwarzlo, where will we move to next?"
This was Clara's first time leaving her home, and she seemed a little lost.
I don't know, but the lower district is so big, there will definitely be a place for us to stay!
"Excuse me for interrupting your conversation, but most of the land in the lower district is now in my boss's hands!"
Hearing Schwarz and Clara's conversation, Seele awkwardly reminded them.
