Chapter 718: The triple alliance (3)

To resolve all the bad blood and conflict of the past between the Three Giants, Loki, Hirate and Boris once held a secret meeting in Kiyosu Castle in Aichi prefecture of japan.

The Kiyosu Kaigi as the people of the Empire of Japan called it. Hirate undoubtedly was trying to repeat the famous Kiyosu Kaigi.

The Kiyosu Kaigi in history is about the meeting in Kiyosu after the death of Oda Nobunaga to decide the matter of who shall succeed Oda Nobunaga.

Only this new meeting inside Kiyosu Castle did not determine the succession of a family clan, instead it talked about the matters of the past and the plans for the future

This small meeting, attended only by the few, created a period of tense diplomatic situation with the other Four Great Powers trying to infiltrate the meeting.

The end result of the meeting was that it forged an alliance between the Three Original Great Powers.

No one knows what was discussed in that meeting but after the meeting, it is clear to everyone that the Triple Alliance between Pandemonium, World Government and the Republic was established.

Pandemonium was not opened but trade was flourishing with the Triple Alliance. The Quorum Council give their assent and the Senate of the Republic al voted aye on the cooperation.

At the time of this formation of the Triple Alliance, the news shakes the world order. This is because it shows to the world, that the Three original great power still retain their powers in dictating the matters of the world.

As such the Triple Alliance protect each other in the world stage, trying to minimize anything the four great powers effort of undermining their power and influence.

And as the alliance was formed between their continents, it also created a triumvirate situation in the World Council with Loki, Hirate and Boris holding the final say in many of the policy and rule making.

The other leaders look at Boris.

‘How about you Boris? You agree with Hirate?’

Boris snorted and said

‘I know nothing about matters in the Arabian Sea’

‘You did not see the sword?’ Nunurai asked

‘I was inside the Senate Hall at that time’ It is clear from the tone and the way they answered the question, that the Republic and the World Government is shielding Pandemonium from any blame.

To everyone, it is obvious that the only one that have the ability and the guts to do such thing is only “that person”

Who would dare to be so flamboyant and overbearing other than “that person”

Not to mention there is even a video recording of the act.

‘There is video recording’ Nunurai said. Hirate held up his hand gesturing he doesn’t know of any recording.

‘I don’t have one’ Boris said coldly.

There is tense silence in the room after that exchange. Eric signed and then he said

‘There is law and order. Or did you already forget what you yourself said? The foundation of our peace is the very law and order that we, the great powers had upheld. These laws that we enforce is what made the world calm down. It is the reason we have our current peace. It is the reason why those Disk Formation and pseudo Divine Comprehension levelers that is secluding themselves in caves and deep sea toe the line. It is because when they break the law, we would capture them and judge them. Order! That is what we offer. And that is what we have always done even not to the best interest of our own power base.’

The other four great power nodded.

They were a few cases where one of their generals or officials who broke the laws in the article and had to pay for their crimes either by doing hard labor or imprisoned in the Undersea Prison.

‘If we ignore this, this law that we have upheld for all of these years would crumble. Once we begin making exception, you know how the world would react. It would become a precedent.’ He paused and then sighing, he addresses the other leaders of the world power and then his gaze rested on Hirate

‘Would you not understand how those factions and organization would react? Underneath the sea, their people are imprisoned. Others were sent to the Sky Prison in the Moon and labored for the sake of redeeming their sins. Once they hear the news that Death Monarch is excluded, what would they think? What would they do? The only reason they listen to us is because we have power and we have the will of the people behind us while we take on the path of righteousness. If we don’t have that, chaos would once again rear its ugly head. They would have wild ideas and it only takes only a matter of time before that will ideas of them would be executed’

Hirate sighed.

‘What do you want me to do? My hands are tied. I am not going to step on Pandemonium toes’ but he did not let his other thoughts discovered.

The other reason is he would not easily give the other four great powers the chance to undermine the authority of the Triple Alliance.

Loki might be gone but Death Monarch did not show any sign of breaking this alliance.

Of course, only one day had passed since Death Monarch return so he might not have made any decision regarding the alliance so Hirate could not yet feel at ease but as long as there is no formal dissolution of their alliance, the Triple Alliance still stand.

And Death Monarch is not a person that the World Government want to provoke. It has been enough lesson that Death Monarch had taught the World Government.

As such, unless Death Monarch truly die or suffer such a massive injury that no one could cure him, Hirate would think ten times before angering Death Monarch

There is status quo already in the world and there are other things that occupied Hirate mind. His grand goal is no longer restricted on Earth and his cause is noble.

Everyone waited Hirate decision. Boris sitting on his throne is deeply thinking of something

Hirate is the one that have the power to held the Great Powers meeting. Or it should be said that he was elected to have the power to call upon the Great Powers meeting.

Even Pandemonium signed off on this since they are never interested in hosting other people in their Central Palace of Pandemonium

Every four years there is the Great Powers Summit where all the representatives of the Seven Great Powers would meet.

And the first one was held two years ago. Of course any great power could summon all the World leader if there is an issue that affect the world at large.

As such even though Hirate was not the one that held these emergency meeting, he was the one tasked in presiding over these matters.

Hirate remain silent. So, someone else speak. And the voice come from the Lotus Order seat
