Taoist priest, who is so popular in One Piece

After convincing the Silver Fox Pirates with reason, Bai Ye left with satisfaction.

Soon, after saying goodbye to Uncle Toget, the Straw Hat Pirates started sailing again.

For most people, this was not even a crisis, but at most a minor episode in the journey.

But for Bai Ye, this experience had a significant impact on him.

"You seem to have gained a lot?"

Bai Ye was lying on a lounge chair on the deck basking in the sun when he suddenly found that someone seemed to be blocking his sunlight.

Then he heard a familiar voice.

"Oh?" Bai Ye opened his eyes and sat up, looking at Robin in front of him with interest.

Robin sat next to Bai Ye, handed him the drink that Sanji had just prepared, and said:

"You don't get to bask in the sun very often, and every time you do, you gain something from it."

"For example, when I was researching elixirs with Chopper, I didn't get blown out of the door with a mess on my face."

"For example, training with Luffy and Zoro, we made a major breakthrough."

“So, it’s not hard to guess.”

After hearing Robin's words, Bai Ye was speechless. It turned out that he had such an obvious habit?

Robin continued:

"Is it related to Luffy?"

"If it was before, you would probably drag Luffy along and start your so-called [Anti-Fraud Class] again."

"But this time, you don't seem to have that intention."

The way Bai Ye looked at Robin was different now.

This woman is so scary!

"almost."

Having talked about it to this point, Bai Ye naturally took over the conversation. After all, this was not something that needed to be kept secret.

So Bai Ye began to explain:

“It’s more that I have gained a lot.”

"I always hoped that Luffy could be more mature and not be manipulated so easily."

“So I always impart my own experience and knowledge to him.”

"But you also saw that he still easily accepted the challenge."

“That made me feel frustrated for a while.”

When Bai Ye said this, he shrugged and showed a helpless expression.

But soon, Bai Ye's expression became clear:

"But when I thought about it carefully, I realized that I was wrong."

"It's me who always forces Luffy to be someone else."

"But when he becomes another person, is he still him?"

"So when Luffy acted like this again, I suddenly figured it out."

"Instead of trying to change Luffy, I should make up for his shortcomings myself."

At this time, a smile began to appear on Bai Ye's face:

"Whether it's a conspiracy or a trap, just bring it on. I will take it all, Bai Ye."

-

Just like that, without Luffy knowing anything.

Our deputy captain has made an important decision.

Just like Bai Ye’s name, he wants to be a ray of light in the darkness.

Whatever Luffy can't do or won't do, Byakuya can do as long as it should be done.

For example, when fighting with an opponent, Luffy simply beats the opponent away.

It has to be said that this kind of battle filled with ideals and romance would only happen to Luffy.

Bai Ye is not opposed to these, but he is also a realistic person.

He knows that in this world full of evil...

Some people can really be killed, and should be killed!

The paradise in the first half of the Grand Line may not matter, after all, the navy still has considerable control here.

But the new world that everyone is destined to go to in the future cannot accommodate such kindness as Luffy.

It was a completely chaotic sea area, with countless vicious pirates lurking in it.

There are also four kings under One Piece!

To ascend to the Pirate King throne that has been vacant for a long time, Luffy can only rely on his passion, ideals and romance.

It is destined to pay a greater price and make greater sacrifices.

In that sea without moral or legal constraints, problems are destined to be solved by killing.

This may also be the reason why Oda created a big group of thieves for Luffy in the later period.

Since he has decided not to change Luffy, Bai Ye decides to do it himself.

Just like Rayleigh to Roger, Beckman to Shanks...

From then on, Byakuya no longer considered himself a time traveler and dreamed of completely transforming the Straw Hat Pirates.

If Luffy is the light that is destined to light up the world.

The white night does not mind being the uncrowned king that cleanses evil in the brief darkness before dawn.

After all, where there is darkness, there is light!

-

After hearing Bai Ye's words, the smile on Robin's face became even more intense.

She opened her red lips and said slowly:

"You seem to have forgotten us."

"Nami, Usopp, and everyone else are all part of this pirate ship."

Robin's voice is still so elegant:

"So, we will help Luffy together like you."

"Because, we are partners, right?"

Facing Bai Ye, Robin said the word "partner" for the first time.

"Yes, we are partners."

Bai Ye raised the corner of his mouth into a beautiful arc, then picked up the drink he had been holding in his hand and took a big gulp.

Then--

"Pfft! Is this a trick you're going to use to play a prank on me, Robin?"

Bai Ye spat out the drink in his mouth and looked at Robin in disbelief.

"Haha, this is really a drink that Sanji mixed himself, but--"

Robin showed a dark expression:

"It's just added bitter herbs that you definitely won't eat."

white night:? ? ?

I will remember this grudge! ! !

Of course, Bai Ye, who holds grudges but never seeks revenge, quickly put the matter behind him.

Because Robin took out a newspaper found in the Silver Fox Pirates.

It was clearly printed on it——【All Ocean Exclusive Reveal: The Unknown Straw Hat Pirates!!!】

-

"Is this the Straw Hat Special that Foxy was talking about?"

In the room, Bai Ye said uncertainly.

At this time, the Straw Hat Pirates were sitting in the house looking at each other.

Just now, they read the newspaper carefully and attentively.

I even read the part about myself several times.

"When I heard him talk about it before, I thought he had collected newspapers about our deeds, but I didn't expect someone to actually compile a special edition."

The corners of Bai Ye's mouth twitched slightly, because he had already guessed who was behind this.

The goods that cheated my son!!!

"But it's really detailed. It even records how Byakuya and Luffy met. It's like they saw it with their own eyes."

Chopper picked up a page of newspaper, looked at the news and said:

"It says here that Luffy admired Bai Ye very much at that time and tried his best to invite him to board the ship."

"But how could a proud person like [Heavenly Master] Bai Ye be so easily persuaded?"

"So I asked Luffy three questions to analyze the current situation in the ocean."

"Then, Bai Ye was convinced by Luffy's amazing speech, so he swore an oath of blood on the spot..."

[Li Gua——Firefly! ]

With a bang, the newspaper in Chopper's hand was burned to ashes.

Bai Ye said with a distorted face:

"Slander, this is blatant slander!!!"
