People are pirates, creating Cthulhu

"Akin, since the Creek Pirates no longer exist, why not join my pirate group? Your strength is enough to serve as a cadre on my ship." The red hair invited Akin again.

However, he didn't expect Ah Jin to hesitate for a moment, but kept looking at Bucky who was eating the food on the table.

He gritted his teeth and looked at Shanks with apologetic eyes: "Sorry, thank you for inviting me again. But I want to join the Bucky Pirates, if Captain Bucky is willing to take me in."

"I?"

Bucky, who was halfway through biting the meat, pointed at himself strangely, as if in disbelief.

Not only him, but the boys next to him were also shocked.

The ghost man Jin actually ignored the invitation from the great pirate from the new world, and instead asked Captain Bucky to take him in.

What's even more unbelievable is that the other party has invited him for the second time.

Doesn’t this mean that the Buggy Pirates have become a super pirate group that surpasses the pirates from the New World?

The boys looked at each other and swallowed in disbelief.

"Ok!"

Now that he had said it, Ajin stopped coying and said directly: "From the first time I met Captain Bucky, I was impressed by Captain Bucky's loyalty."

"As long as Captain Bucky is willing to take me in, I can start as a trainee on the ship."

"please!"

intern! !

The younger brothers were all dumbfounded that Captain Bucky was so charming.

Just do a little math.

The leader of the red-haired pirates from the new world is Jin.

And Jin is an intern in the Bucky Pirates.

That is to say...

The interns of the Buggy Pirates are equivalent to the leaders of the Red Hair Pirates! !

This……

What an honor!

And all this stems from Captain Bucky’s personal charm.

As expected, he was an intern who had been on Roger's ship.

"Eh?!"

Bucky was stunned. The development of things was beyond his expectation.

He originally wanted to collect Ah Jin's soul, but why did he want to join his ship as an intern.

"This……"

"Ah, I'm really unwilling to accept it. I actually lost to you again."

The red-haired man shook his head, picked up the wine glass and took a swig with a smile on his face.

what!

Did I beat Shanks?

Seems pretty good!

Bucky was about to refuse, but Shanks' words made him change his mind.

"Okay, I will reluctantly allow you to be an intern on our ship."

"Great!"

Ah Jin couldn't help but pick up the wine glass with some excitement.

Finally, we are on the same boat with the unparalleled loyal Captain Bucky, and we no longer have to suffer the inner torment that we felt when we were enemies of Captain Bucky.

"congratulations."

Seeing Ajin so happy, the red-haired man couldn't help but feel happy for him.

After drinking and eating, while Bucky was drunk, Shanks quietly approached him and asked: "Bucky, do you have Roger's treasure map in your hand?"

"how do you know?"

When the treasure map was mentioned, Bucky immediately became alert even though he was drunk.

"You know, Captain Roger once told me the specific location of Laphrud. I just want to help you see if the treasure map is real."

"Huh? Is this happening?"

"Of course."

The red-haired eyes were full of sincerity, and Bucky's head was in a blur. After thinking for a long time, he finally seemed to vaguely remember that this really happened.

"Okay, let me give you a look."

He took the treasure map out of his arms and handed it to the red hair.

Unfold the treasure map.

The treasure place is indeed Lavrud.

This is a real treasure map!

The red hair was extremely shocked, the rumors of the mysterious businessman were true, and the treasure map was also true.

But who is it?

Why do you want to do this?

Just when the red-haired man was wondering, the door of the tavern opened, but there was no one outside.

Suddenly Shanks looked sharply: "Who are you?!"

"Oh, you can actually detect me. What a powerful perception."

Right next to him, a female voice sounded, and then the red-haired man found in horror that he could no longer move. He could only watch the treasure map in his hand slowly float up, and then disappear into the void.

"Don't worry, I'm just borrowing it to observe, and I'm not interested in the treasures here."

Olvia's fingertips rubbed the treasure map in her hand, and a familiar feeling came to her heart. From this, she could almost conclude that this thing was indeed made by a certain god.

And the clown Bucky in front of him seemed to have become an apostle of God at a certain moment that he was not even aware of.

Perhaps the same thing happened to Kuzan.

Olvia fell into deep thought, and Kuzan, who had been floating around, asked boredly: "What are you thinking about?"

"It's nothing. Didn't you say you wanted to go to Marineventor before? There's just an opportunity now."

"Huh? What chance?"

"He happens to be heading to the Grand Line. If you want to find the Pirate King's treasure, you have to pass through Marinevando, so you can go back on their ship."

After Olvia finished speaking, Kuzan took it out before he could react.

In the void, the treasure map reappeared, along with a heart wrapped in ice. The strange thing was that this heart did not seem to be dead, but its pulse was always beating very powerfully.

"I hope you can return this treasure map to him and let him take this heart with him to hunt for treasure together."

"Well...as for the reason, just tell him that the heart is closely related to the statue in his hand. I hope he can preserve them well. I believe you can do this well."

Facing this mysterious man who suddenly appeared, the red-haired man had no ability to resist at all and could only silently obey the other party's arrangements. So much so that he had originally planned to secretly exchange the treasure map in Bucky's hand, but he could only temporarily cancel the plan.

After a long time, Shanks finally regained his mobility.

Looking at the treasure map and the heart on the table, he remained silent for a long time. He had never felt this way even when he followed Roger around in the dangerous new world.

Powerless.

It was as if he was facing an insurmountable peak in the world.

It seems that the other person is not the same person as the person who made the treasure map, but it is certain that there must be some connection between the two.

Shanks took advantage of Bucky's sound sleep and touched him all over, but did not find the statue the woman mentioned.

But it can be seen from the woman's words that she is very sure about it.

heart.

statue.

Treasure Map.

He felt as if all three were foretelling something to him.

Perhaps only by returning to the origin of it all, on Spear Island, can he find the key to the matter.
