One Piece: The Straw Hat Pirates' Max-Level Swordsman

The night is deep, and the inky darkness covers the vast ocean. The sea breeze blows gently but continuously on the ship of the Buggy Pirates.

The pirate ship swayed slightly in the ups and downs of the waves, as if a tired traveler was breathing gently in his sleep.

After those who were secretly watching left quietly with full of doubts and unwillingness, Ling Tian also found a quiet corner in the Buggy Pirates to rest for a while.

The corner he found was at the bottom of the cabin, away from the noisy footsteps and loud conversations of the crew.

Ling Tian leaned against the wall tiredly and slowly closed his eyes, his thoughts fluctuating like the waves on the sea. He thought about the intentions of those mysterious people and was also worried about the various crises he might face in the future.

As the night faded, the endless darkness seemed to be slowly torn apart by an invisible hand, and the dawn light quietly spread over the sea.

At first, it was just a faint grayish-white light, but gradually, the light became brighter and warmer, bringing new hope and vitality to the whole world. The golden sunlight was like fine golden sand, sprinkling on the waves, flashing a charming light.

In Bucky's room, he slowly woke up, his consciousness slowly emerging from the abyss of sleep. After a night of rest, he finally recovered.

He slowly opened his eyes, adjusted to the light in the room, and then stretched his body, as if to drive away all the fatigue in his body.

His joints made a "cracking" sound and he moved his stiff body, feeling the strength returning.

At this time, Ling Tian walked to Bucky's room with steady steps.

The door was gently pushed open, and he saw at a glance that Bucky had woken up and looked in good spirits.

Seeing that Buggy had recovered his spirit, Ling Tian did not hesitate at all and asked Buggy directly: "Bucky, do you know that Ace will be executed in three months?"

His voice was low and serious, and his eyes were filled with deep worry.

When Buggy heard Ling Tian's words, he was struck by lightning. His body suddenly froze and he stood there in a daze.

His eyes were wide open, and his eyeballs seemed about to pop out of their sockets. His face was full of disbelief, and he looked as if he had heard the most absurd lie in the world.

His voice was trembling, like a leaf falling in the wind, and he said tremblingly: "What? Ace will be executed in three months? How is this possible? This is absolutely impossible!"

As he spoke, he shook his head frantically, as if trying to get rid of this terrible news from his mind.

Mochi and Kabachi, who were standing by, also remained silent after hearing Ling Tian's words.

They lowered their heads like children who had done something wrong, not daring to meet Bucky's gaze. Their faces were filled with guilt, and that guilt was like a heavy yoke, pressing them so hard that they could hardly breathe.

Bucky looked at the two silent people, and his anger was instantly ignited. His emotions were completely out of control, and he shouted anxiously: "Did you know about this a long time ago? Why didn't you tell me? Why did you hide it from me?"

His voice became hoarse with anger, and the veins in his neck bulged as if they would explode at any time.

Mochi slowly raised his head, his face full of helplessness and grievance. He looked at Buggy and said in a low voice: "Captain, you are always training day and night in the scorched earth. Every time we want to talk to you, you are immersed in training and don't give us a chance to speak. We also want to tell you, but..."

As he spoke, his voice gradually faded away.

Kabachi also said: "Yes, Captain, we are also very anxious and have been thinking about telling you. But you have been training all the time and we have no way to tell you."

Bucky frowned, his brows so deep that they looked like they could kill a fly.

His face was full of anger and anxiety, the two emotions intertwined together, making his expression distorted and hideous.

His lips kept trembling as he muttered to himself, "No, I can't let anything happen to Ace, absolutely not!"

Then, he clenched his fists tightly, his knuckles turning white from the force, and said through gritted teeth, "I'm going to push the city to rescue Ace!"

His words were full of determination and recklessness, as if he had already made up his mind to go forward even if there were mountains of swords and seas of fire ahead.

As he spoke, he rushed out recklessly like a cannonball, and he looked so anxious that it seemed as if he didn't want to waste even a second.

You know, Ace is Yamato's fiancé, and as Yamato's godfather, how could he just watch Ace being executed?

In Buggy's heart, Ace is not only a relative, but also a responsibility and a promise. He remembered Yamato's eyes full of expectation and trust. He couldn't let her down and couldn't let her lose her beloved.

Ling Tian was quick-witted and quick-handed. He stopped Buggy in an instant with lightning speed. His arm was like a solid barrier, blocking Buggy's way.

At the same time, he shouted, "Bucky, calm down! If you act rashly like this, not only will you fail to save Ace, you will also get yourself involved." Ling Tian's voice was loud and serious, with unquestionable determination.

Buggy's eyes were red and bloodshot, as if burning with rage. He glared at Ling Tian and shouted, "Brother Ling Tian, ​​what do you think we should do? Are we just going to watch Ace being executed?"

His voice was filled with endless grief and despair, and he was like a wounded beast, struggling and roaring in despair.

"How could I be willing to watch Ace being executed? But impulse won't solve the problem!" Ling Tian looked back at Buggy with a firm and calm gaze. "You know what Impel Down is. It's heavily guarded and full of traps. If you rush in without a thorough plan, you'll just die in vain!"

“But, but we don’t have time!” Buggy’s voice was filled with tears. “Every second we waste, Ace will be in more danger!”

"The more times like this, the more we need to stay calm!" Ling Tian said loudly again, "We must plan carefully and find the most feasible way to have a glimmer of hope to rescue Ace."

Ling Tian took a deep breath, trying to calm Buggy down, and then said solemnly: "Bucky, we need to think long-term and not act blindly. We need to make a comprehensive plan that takes into account all possible situations."

"Let's gather at the Sabaody Archipelago in two months, and then we'll discuss the specific rescue plan together. Only in this way can we have a greater chance of rescuing Ace and ensuring everyone's safety."

Ling Tian's eyes were firm and steady, and his voice was full of calmness and rationality.

After listening to Ling Tian's words, Bucky's mood calmed down a little. His originally rapid breathing gradually became steady, and his frown relaxed a little.

He frowned and thought for a moment, constantly weighing Ling Tian's suggestion and his own eagerness in his mind. Finally, he seemed to have figured something out, and nodded in agreement: "Okay, let's do as Brother Ling Tian says."

Although there was still a hint of anxiety in Bucky's voice, it was more rational and determined.
