After the fall of the Eastern Dwarf Kingdom, he had rescued a number of criminals. Logen had been imprisoned at the time, and even Kenichi Haramae had wanted to save him.
Who would have thought that a sudden doll cannon would intervene—only for Wolverine Logen to come to the rescue?
Thus, although Wolverine Logen had not seen Kenichi Haramae for a long time, he still considered him a decent person.
"Your Excellency Logen, the former president has been eagerly awaiting your arrival. He wishes to thank you personally," Yu Ji Fu said respectfully.
"Your name is Yukifu, isn't it?" Logen regarded him. "I agreed to what you suggested. When do we depart?"
"Your Excellency, let's find a place to rest tonight. Tomorrow, we'll be in the Eastern Dwarf Kingdom," Yukifu replied.
Logen's eyes stared out the car window into the darkened sky.
"What are you thinking, Lord Logen?" Yukifu asked as he drove, sensing that the Wolverine Logen core seemed unusually contemplative.
"I'm not thinking about anything," Logen answered quietly.
Yukifu nodded, understanding that some matters were private and not to be discussed.
At an airport in the Eastern Dwarf Kingdom, Xu Fu descended gracefully, accompanied by Starlight.
Though he could have used his portal to appear instantly, Xu Fu preferred the slower approach. Traveling this way allowed him to see more, experience more, and enjoy the journey. Besides, he wasn't certain of the exact location and didn't want to risk an embarrassing mistake.
At the airport, members of the original family were waiting. Xu Fu was, after all, a highly distinguished guest.
Few knew Xu Fu's true background on Blue Star. Only a handful, like Yuan Qianjian, were aware. In reality, Xu Fu's identity was remarkable.
He held significant investments in several multinational companies on Blue Star. He wasn't a small-time executive—he was a top-tier shareholder with real influence in board decisions. Even his former enterprises still carried his stake. In a sense, they belonged to him.
In modern society, it was nearly impossible to live solely by fishing—especially while raising others and managing selective systems. Xu Fu's influence and wealth made him one of the world's elite few.
"Mr. Xu," a young man in a black suit greeted respectfully.
Xu Fu inclined his head.
"Former President, please forgive the inconvenience. The President regrets that he cannot personally greet Your Excellency," the young man continued politely.
"It's nothing," Xu Fu replied. "Your excellency's health comes first."
Yuan Qianjian had requested Xu Fu's presence. His life, Xu Fu suspected, was gradually waning, and he had made meticulous arrangements—including Wolverine Logen's involvement.
"Mr. Xu, Miss Starlight, shall we walk and talk?" the young man suggested as they approached a long black limousine.
Xu Fu smiled at Starlight. "Let's go."
Owning a private vehicle made intercontinental travel far easier, a luxury few could afford.
The car sped toward the original family's estate.
"Xu Fu, the Eastern Dwarf Kingdom is vastly different from the Beautiful Country," Starlight remarked, gazing out the window in amazement.
"Yes, there's a big difference," Xu Fu agreed. "When the time comes, I'll take you to Zhongyuan as well."
"Zhongyuan… Xu Fu, that's your hometown," Starlight said, her expression full of longing.
While Starlight admired Zhongyuan, she had spent most of her life in the Beautiful Country and had few opportunities to visit. Even if travel was possible, it required considerable time and resources. Only a rare few ventured so far for unfamiliar cultures.
Soon, the vehicle arrived at a sprawling, Japanese-style estate.
Young men in black suits and sunglasses stood at the entrance, armed and alert—ready to protect the original family. This was a renowned enterprise in the Eastern Dwarf Kingdom, and many eyes were on them.
Even if someone dared to attack, they would be swiftly countered by Yuan Qianjian's security. As the former heir, Yashida Ke held little weight in the eyes of the kingdom's powerful factions.
The guards saluted the young man accompanying Xu Fu, acknowledging his high status within the family.
Xu Fu observed quietly. "His Excellency Sanshouguang holds extraordinary influence within the family."
"Mr. Xu," Sanshouguang said with a slight smile, "I am grateful that you've come this far. It is all thanks to the former president's kindness."
Moments later, Sanshouguang led them to the former president's medical room.
"Xu Fu, I'll wait outside," Starlight said. This visit was personal; her presence wasn't appropriate.
"Miss Starlight, why don't you wait in your room? I'll join you afterward," Xu Fu suggested.
