Soon, Scout walked over to Raine's side and said, "Captain Raine, do you have a moment? I want to talk to you alone."

Raine furrowed his brow slightly and asked, "What do you want with me?"

"I have something to discuss with you. Please follow me," Scout said without waiting for Raine's answer, and walked straight out of the arena.

Scout's appearance drew everyone's attention to Raine.

"Who are those people? They look unfamiliar. Why would the Captain of Scout come to them personally?"

"They? They are just a bunch of newbies with poor skills. Several of their team members were eliminated in the previous matches."

"Why do they have such a good position? The first row is reserved for big shots. How did they get such good tickets?"

Feeling uncomfortable under the scrutinizing gazes of the people around him, Raine thought for a moment and then followed another staff member to the exit.

"Captain, do you want me to accompany you?" Shobe asked warily.

"No, I can handle it," Raine said, getting up and leaving.

At the end of the corridor, Scout was waiting for him.

As soon as Raine arrived, Scout frowned and asked, "Captain Raine, I want to ask you, why did you give up your team's place?"

"What? Isn't that voluntary?" Raine asked.

"It is voluntary, but in the entire King Class Sea Area, whoever doesn't give face to General Trajan? Even the ten spots allocated to the Ice Emperor are already full. Do your crew members think it's shameful to become General Trajan's son-in-law?"

"No, it's just that some of them exceeded the age limit, so we didn't have enough people," Raine explained truthfully.

After thinking for a moment, Scout realized that Raine wasn't intentionally causing trouble.

"Captain Raine, you don't know our Miss's temperament. If she finds out that you gave up the spot, she will want to kill you."

Raine blinked. Was that woman really that fierce?

"Actually, we are all easy to talk to. As men, we don't care about small things. General Trajan is also a reasonable person. But our little girl has a strong sense of self-esteem. Can you try to come up with another spot? Even if you pretend, it's fine."

Raine furrowed his brow, but Scout was actually quite polite. Besides, he admired General Trajan, and this was just a small matter that wasn't worth mentioning.

"Alright, I'll find someone else," Raine said, thinking of Twobear, who was of the right age.

"Oh, thank you so much. Hahaha, that's great! Raine, you're such a straightforward man. I just found out that Shobe and Charge King are also on your ship. I know them both. After the competition is over, I'll treat you guys to a meal."

"It's not a big deal. My crew and I admire General Trajan very much. It would be great if we could meet him."

"That's not a problem. I'll arrange it for you!"

In just a few minutes, this was solved, and the two of them became good friends.

After they happily reached a decision, Raine returned to his seat to arrange, but suddenly felt someone calling his name...

"Avril?" Raine asked in surprise, as it seemed like the guy had urgent business with him. Raine thought for a moment and said to Shobe and Shane, "You two watch over here, I'll go back to the ship."

Shobe and Shane immediately became alert and stood close to Raine, but in an instant, Raine's consciousness had returned to the aircraft carrier.

"Captain! I need to talk to you!" Avril shouted loudly at the wall of the control tower.

Raine said. "Avril, what do you want from me?"

"Captain, you finally came back! Just now, several ships were wandering near our fleet, so I sent a warning plane to investigate, and I already know who it is." Avril said urgently.

"Who is it?"

"It's the ship of the King of the Ancient!"

"The King of the Ancient? That name sounds awesome. Are they investigating us?"

"Yes!"

Raine nodded. There were still things to arrange on the side of the Son of Poseidon. So he said, "Raise the alert here, I'll go back first."

Raine returned to body and scanned the entire room, noticing that several people sitting opposite him in the front row were intentionally or unintentionally looking his way.

"Could it be them? Armin, see what they're saying!"

Armin's eyes quickly became owl eyes, and he read the lips of these people across several hundred meters.

...

On the opposite side of the audience, a middle-aged man with a beard slightly narrowed his eyes.

The appearance of Scout just now caught his attention to the group of people across from him. After a brief investigation, they not only knew why the scout was looking for him, but also the identities of the people across from them.

"They killed Charles and Austin?!" The man slightly narrowed his eyes. "What great ambition! It is said that their ship is extremely advanced. Let's see if we can get it!"

"Boss, I have an idea! Their few people who were sent out don't seem to have much strength, probably to conserve their energy." A charming woman beside the man said, "They agreed to add another spot for the scout. This is a good opportunity for us. It is said that their captain is very protective of his crew. Let's see if we can provoke him and make Trajan deal with him."

"What if he can hold back?" The man asked.

"Pressing harder, he couldn't resist any longer," the woman raised her eyebrows.

"Will Trajan allow such a thing to happen?"

"Let's make it look like an accident. It would be best if we could make him lose control, and then no one would know who is right or wrong."

"Alright, let's inform the Ocean King Seleucus, the Grassland King Park, and don't forget to notify Miss Olivia too!" the man nodded, "During the final match, let Iron Armor deal with them properly!"

"Also, have the warships outside prepared. As long as that guy disrupts the order, Trajan will not protect their fleet, and then we will team up with Seleucus, Park, and take the opportunity to take them down!"

Armin leaned over to Raine's ear and repeated the conversation.

Raine narrowed his eyes slightly. These three kings were actually trying to make a preemptive strike first.

"Very well, let's wait and see!"

By evening, the final match had finally begun. Raine didn't let Twobear take the stage; his own name appeared on the roster for the last match.

Twobear's strength was insufficient to deal with the opponent's planned conspiracy, so now only Raine could take the stage.

As soon as Raine appeared, he suddenly noticed a sharp gaze from the presiding platform staring at him.

Following the gaze, Raine was surprised to find that it was Trajan's granddaughter, Miss Olivia, who was the protagonist of this contest for marriage, staring at him furiously.

"What are you looking at me for? What did I do? Do you really think I want to marry you? Well, a headache!"

Whatever, Raine didn't care anymore. Now he had to crush the opponent's plan first and then play casually. He could just get eliminated in the next round.

With a signal, the match began.

Shobe and the others nervously watched the match on the stage. They also knew about enemy's plan and couldn't help but worry for Raine.

"Be careful, Captain!"
