Chapter 140: Three Interesting Idiots

"Big brother, it was our ignorance! Please, show some mercy and let us go!"

"That's right! We can even be your lackeys!"

"We beg you! Oh, great brother! We truly know we were wrong! We'll do anything you ask!"

These three "traffic lights" were begging Yue Longze with absolutely no shred of dignity, saying anything they could think of to save their skins.

Yue Longze finally stopped. He feigned hesitation for a moment before saying with a straight face, "How about this? Get up first. I won't hit you anymore. As it happens, I haven't had dinner yet! Take me out for a meal, and we'll talk after that. Once my stomach is full, everything is negotiable."

Having beaten these three punks for so long, Yue Longze didn't really want to continue the violence. Besides... he was truly starving!

The punks sprawled on the ground were stunned for a moment, then immediately nodded vigorously. "Yes, yes, yes! Whatever you say, we'll do!"

These three "traffic lights" were genuinely terrified of Yue Longze, completely broken by his overwhelming force. Their estimation of his combat prowess had reached an incredibly high level in their minds. Even while injured, he had easily beaten the three of them into such a miserable state with just his right hand. If this man were fully recovered...

Holy crap! He must be absolutely terrifying!

Yue Longze nodded in satisfaction, though he remained on guard. He stayed wary in case they decided to stab him in the back when he wasn't looking. Regardless, he had learned long ago, ever since he first traversed into the Ultraman world, that one must never let their guard down until the enemy is truly finished.

However, Yue Longze was truly overthinking it. These three punks had been completely conquered by his strength and lacked any desire to resist. To put it bluntly, they were three cowards who bullied the weak and feared the strong. At this moment, they were utterly subdued by his beating.

"Well, what are you standing there for? Lead the way!"

Yue Longze kept his face stern and spoke sharply, the hunger in his gut growing more intense. Furthermore, his body was still somewhat weak; he couldn't afford to go hungry!

The three punks seemed to have a high capacity for psychological endurance, as they quickly adapted to their new roles. Along the way, they bowed and scraped, even proactively lighting a cigarette for Yue Longze and currying favor, calling him "Big Brother" with every other word.

Yue Longze accepted the title, learning that these three were local troublemakers who had intimidated many people using these same tactics. He found their obsequious attitude quite useful and no longer felt like bickering with these somewhat dim-witted, chuunibyou-afflicted punks. He even considered taking them on as his lackeys.

"Tell me, you three..."

"Yes?"

The three punks simultaneously fixed their gazes on Yue Longze, their eyes filled with fear, terrified that he might want to hit them again. This injured "big brother" hit way too hard; they were already bruised and swollen, and if he were to beat them again, they probably wouldn't be able to take it.

Yue Longze ignored their weak gazes, took a drag of his cigarette, and said leisurely, "Do you want to become outstanding young men like me?"

The three punks were stunned, and then a flicker of fervor appeared in their eyes. Like three dogs, they nodded quickly and in unison; they were in awe of his fighting skills.

"Of course! We want to become promising young men like you, big brother!"

Yue Longze smiled slightly, seemingly satisfied with their reaction.

"Actually, if you want to become an outstanding young man like me, there is only one thing you must do first."

As Yue Longze said this, he ignored their confused yet eager gazes, took another deep drag of his cigarette, and continued: "First, you need to get rid of that hair of yours!"

Yue Longze genuinely loathed their punk hairstyles. Their eyes were almost entirely covered by their hair, which was longer than a normal man’s but shorter than a normal woman’s—it was truly cringeworthy to look at!

The three punks nodded without hesitation and asked, "And then you'll teach us real martial arts?"

Yue Longze shot them a sidelong glance and snorted. "Let's get fed first."

"Yes, yes, yes... whatever you say, big brother!"

The three moved with light steps and soon arrived at the nearest sushi restaurant. The three punks were very sharp; they immediately vied for the chance to pay out of their own pockets to order a meal for Yue Longze.

Yue Longze sat at the table, looking at the delicious sushi before him, his eyes gradually becoming unfocused...

Back when he first traversed into the Xiao Xiang dimension—the first Tiga dimension—he had been just as ravenous. It was that girl, Xiao Xiang, who had treated him to a delicious meal of sushi!

That was the first full meal he had eaten in that dimension, a memory Yue Longze would never forget. And now, arriving in this strange new world, it was the same. This delicious sushi before him would once again be his first full meal in this unfamiliar place.

"History... always repeats itself in such an astonishing way!"

Yue Longze felt a complex mix of emotions, sighing to himself. Meanwhile, the three punks sitting across from him were whispering to each other.

"Oh no, does big brother not like the sushi?"

"It's over... we're definitely going to get disciplined by big brother again!"

"Does big brother think this place is too low-class?"

The red, yellow, and green "traffic lights" whispered amongst themselves. Their thoughts were different, but they shared the same fear—that Yue Longze would be angry or dissatisfied!

Yue Longze remained silent before the sushi for a while before coming back to his senses. He looked at the three pale-faced punks and couldn't help but chuckle. Having seen through their worries, he still feigned a stern, gloomy face. "It's not that late yet. You three go find a barbershop and get rid of that hair!"

The three punks nodded rapidly and bolted out of the sushi restaurant like a puff of smoke, rushing toward the nearest barbershop.

"Sigh, how did heaven let me run into three such dim-witted fools..."

Yue Longze watched the three punks dash out, feeling slightly dazed. "But these three idiots are actually quite interesting."

He chuckled to himself and began to feast. Yue Longze ate with such wolfish ferocity that "devouring like a whirlwind" would not be an exaggeration!

The three punks' appearance had already left the customers and staff in the restaurant dumbfounded, but now, Yue Longze's savage way of eating left them utterly speechless.

Yue Longze swept through all the sushi on the table with incredible speed, licking the utensils he had used until they were clean and shining! The level of shine was as if they had just been freshly washed!
