The meeting of the Two Drama Kings

"We've arrived. This is Captain Loa's command tent." An Eldia Soldiers led Zeke to Yago's tent.

Since Zeke was ordered to bring the Sea-Swimming Titan Aili and the Warrior Candidate back to the unit, and Colonel Koslow, who was originally in charge of this, was injured and hospitalized, it would be natural for him to inform the Marley commander of this unit.

But when the Eldia Soldiers entered the tent to report, Zeke seemed distracted. This was understandable; he was merely a commander of a regimental-level Eldia Forces —what did it mean to him?

Informing him is just a formality.

"War Chief Zeke, you may go in now," the Eldia Soldiers said as he emerged from the tent.

Zeke smiled and nodded. "Thank you for your trouble." Although Zeke thanked him verbally, there was some doubt in his eyes, because the Eldia Soldiers's attitude was a bit strange.

Unlike the Eldians Zeke had met before, the Zeke he had encountered had only two attitudes towards him, both of which were directed at the red Armband on his arm—the symbol of Honorary Marleyan.

His fellow tribesmen either felt extreme envy for him, envying their own status as Honorary Marleyan, or they were filled with extreme anger towards him, believing themselves to be traitors. Of course, the latter was generally the attitude of those Restorationists like Zeke's parents.

In short, Zeke had never seen a fellow tribesman as calm and composed as the Soldiers before him.

Curiosity aside, Zeke was too lazy to spend time studying these things. After opening the tent door, Zeke went straight inside.

If Zeke had observed closely, he would have discovered that not only the Soldiers in front of him, but the entire Third Regiment Soldiers have been uninterested in these so-called Honorary Marleyan. They were the Eldia Revival Army; Honorary Marleyan? They seemed laughable in the face of his ideals and goals.

When Zeke entered the tent, he only saw a table inside, a military map on the table, a cot, and a chair. A tall figure was sitting in the chair, but the figure had its back to him.

Compared to the living conditions of other Marley commanders that Zeke had seen, this Lieutenant Colonel Loa —no, Colonel —Yago had been promoted because of the Third Regiment's capture of the Middle Easterners Fortress.

Compared to other Marley commanders, Loa's living conditions could be described as rudimentary. But what did it matter? Zeke immediately straightened his posture, bowed politely, and said, "Colonel Loa, I am Jaeger Zeke, the War Chief of the Marley Warrior Unit. My mission is to lead the Sea-Swimming Titan Aili Ambas and all the Warrior Candidate. I am reporting to you now."

After saying that Zeke straightened up and turned to leave. The message had been delivered, so he wouldn't waste any more time.

But a sudden sound from behind made Zeke stop in his tracks.

"Zeke War Chief, is that all?"

The strangely familiar voice sent a chill down Zeke's spine. This voice? Why was it so familiar? So familiar that it seemed to be etched into his mind. It seemed to have been in the nightmare that had terrified him so much that he couldn't sleep for days.

Zeke hesitated for a moment before slowly turning around, and "Loa," who had been facing away from him, also turned to face him.

The moment Zeke saw that face, it felt as if his brain had been stabbed by a silver needle, causing his brain to freeze for two seconds and his eyes to lose focus.

My mind was filled with thoughts like, "How could it be him? How could he be here? Shouldn't he be on Paradis Island? How could the Marley commander be him? No way! I must be dreaming!"

Just as Zeke was muttering that he thought he was dreaming, Yago asked again with a cold face, "War Chief Zeke, didn't you hear my question? Besides taking away the Sea-Swimming Titan and the Warrior Candidate, is there nothing else?"

Zeke finally came to his senses and stared at Yago's face, asking in confusion, "Yago-san? What are you doing here? That's unlikely, isn't it?"

But Yago had no intention of directly admitting his identity. Instead, he feigned arrogance and asked, "Who is Yago-san? War Chief Jiko, what are you saying? Why don't I understand?"

Zeke's mind was filled with more and more questions. He couldn't help but take a few steps forward and get closer to Yago, carefully observing the latter's appearance.

As Zeke observed, he noticed some clues. This Colonel "Loa" really resembled Yago, but there were still some differences. The most obvious difference was their demeanor. Loa in front of him clearly had more of a superior aura than the Yago that Zeke had seen before. In Yago, Zeke only saw caution and calculation, and he did not see any superior aura.

Furthermore, the scar on "Loa's " face should be the best proof, after all, it's unrealistic for someone who is the host of the Titan Power to be injured and have a scar.

Despite this, Zeke still had some doubts, but he still bowed and said, "I'm sorry, Colonel Loa, it's just that you look very much like an old friend of mine, which is why I was surprised."

Who are your friends? Yago felt a little disdainful. Friends with Zeke? You really haven't heard of "The Ape"?

"Really? That's quite rare. It seems Zeke have a real War Chief."

Zeke chuckled and, taking this opportunity, moved a little closer to observe Zeke more closely Yago. The more he looked, the more suspicious he became. Yago, on the other hand, seemed to have taken a liking to Zeke and deliberately concealed his identity while arguing with him.

And so, the two chatted for a long time. As everyone knows, when guys start bragging, the topics they cover are incredibly diverse, ranging from astronomy and geography to headaches and fevers, from ancient times to the present, from China to the world, and from strange tales to anything else.

As they continued talking, Zeke grew increasingly irritable, while Yago remained engrossed in explaining the nine ways to Sweetbread.

Zeke couldn't hold back any longer and suddenly said, "I've taken control of Eren, the Founding Titan Power is now in my hands, and the Euthanasia Plan is just a few steps away from completion."

"What?!" Yago was startled and stood up abruptly. How could this be? How could Zeke control Eren? How could his Marley Volunteers possibly do that? Are you kidding me? Wait! Kidding me? Yago suddenly realized something was wrong; he seemed to have been tricked.

Turning his head, he saw, sure enough, Zeke was looking at him with a mocking expression, as if to say, "Keep pretending! Keep pretending!"

Seeing this, Yago chuckled and sat down again, looking at Zeke.

Zeke's inner monologue. "Little brat, what are you pretending for?"

Yago thought to himself, "That old fox, he's quite the liar."
