Nioh exhaled, pressing the speaker button. "What do you want?" he asked, his voice laced with coldness.
The screen before them flickered to life, revealing Jade's image. 'I thought the ship controls were all shut down, then how did she?' Nioh was stunned.
"What do I want?" Jade countered, an eyebrow raised. "You know exactly what I want."
"Sorry, you can't have that anymore," Nioh replied.
He settled back into his seat, his gaze fixed on the screen. "And why is that?" Jade's brow furrowed.
"Your 'Artifact' is with my King. No matter what you say or do, you can't have it," Nioh smirked.
"You know we are stronger, right?" Jade's voice held a hint of threat.
"Strong? What if you are strong?" Nioh challenged, adding, "You have two choices: first, let us go and take off that stupid device from our warship. Or attack us; trust me, you won't end well."
