Chapter Seventy-Nine: A Day of Waiting

(2-in-1 chapter)

Ragnar said, "You let me and my children go, and blame us for killing the red-haired imps, and you can easily take control of the entire ship, and I will tell you where the Devil Fruit is hiding." As for meeting again in the future, if you eat the Devil Fruit, you are still afraid of our revenge in the future, even if it is in the East China Sea, you should consider stopping from the pirate industry. ā€

Becker looked thoughtful and nodded slowly: "What you say makes sense." ā€

Ragnar was secretly happy in his heart, he naturally didn't know the story of the two peach killing the three soldiers, but using the Devil Fruit as a bargaining chip also had a similar purpose, he asked with a normal face, "You agreed?" ā€

Becker said, "Are you asking me?" ā€

ā€œā€¦ā€¦ Request, sort of," Ragnar was stunned when he heard this, sighed, and couldn't help laughing at himself, "I didn't lower my voice in the face of 'Whitebeard' back then, but now I'm so embarrassed that I ask for a ghost." ā€

Becker comforted at this time: "What is there to be ashamed of when a father whispers for the safety of his children? ā€

"Father...... child, ...... child," Ragnar muttered to himself, and then suddenly laughed, "yes, I am the father, and my real child is on board!" 'Whitebeard', no wonder I'm not as good as you, I didn't understand the consciousness you had when you were young until I was old. ā€

Ragnar's laughter grew to a hint of remorse and gloom, and Becker waited for him to calm down before asking, "Can you tell me where the Devil Fruit is now?" ā€

Ragnar said, "In the dark compartment at the foot of the right table of my desk in the captain's room. ā€

He then went on to give the approximate location of the captain's quarters on the ship.

Becker nodded, and suddenly said coldly: "Harden is right. ā€

"What?"

As soon as Ragnar asked a question, he heard a rapid and short sound of "swish" come to his ears, and a sharp blade had already sunk into his chest, and then a big hand savagely turned his head and looked at a pair of eyes full of anger and murderous intent.

"I said, 'Harden is right,'" the smile on Becker's face had long since been thrown away, and he sneered murderously, "I'll avenge him." ā€

Ragnar's eyes widened as he stared at the man in front of him, and Becker continued: "And I will eat your pirates cleanly as he said, your Devil Fruit is mine, and your crew will be too." ā€

Becker slowly turned the knife, and as he moved, Ragnar continued to spit blood in his mouth, and he twisted his body unwillingly, and then seemed to figure out something, and said intermittently: "I, my children......." ā€

Becker still turned the blade mercilessly, but Ragnar's face had calmed down again, and after a few struggles on the ground, he lost his life, and there seemed to be a hint of relief on his old face, covered in blood and scars.

After killing Ragnar, Becker pulled out the knife and gently wiped the blood on the knife with a handkerchief before going out of the house to find Barbarossa and telling him the news that the Devil Fruit was in the captain's room of the Viking Pirates, but Becker did not say where it was.

Barbarossa was a little annoyed that Becker had killed Ragnar without permission, but his most important thing was the Devil Fruit, so after observing Becker suspiciously for a while, seeing that he didn't look like a lie, and really couldn't think of a reason to lie, he ordered someone to put down a small boat on the ship, he was very suspicious, and he wanted to go to the Viking Pirates ship alone to find the Devil Fruit, and ordered all the crew to stay on the ship before leaving, and not to leave.

Barbarossa's words were actually mainly addressed to Becker, but he overestimated his current prestige and underestimated Becker's influence on the ship.

Becker didn't look at Barbarossa's boat, he went to the bilge, found a small barrel of liquor that he had placed in the ballast here, and then came to the deck, and when he got to the deck, Barbarossa had already boarded the Viking Pirates ship in the small boat.

On the deck, Felton, Akin, Eric, Harrison, and many other members of the Redbeard Pirates were there, and they all looked at Becker who was carrying the barrel and felt inexplicable.

"What are you doing, Becker?" Felton stepped forward and asked with a frown.

Becker ignored him and instructed the pirate crowd, "Eric, go and put the other boat down for me." ā€

Eric was stunned for a moment, then responded with a "hey", and dragged another companion who was also a rookie pirate to the side of the ship, wanting to release the ship, completely ignoring Barbarossa's instructions.

Felton was shocked when he saw this, and wanted to step forward to stop Eric, but he was blocked by Ah Jin just after taking two steps, and Ah Jin was pushed hard in the chest.

Felton was furious, and his two cronies also came behind him, staring at Ah Jin with unkind expressions, but the other members of the ship, including the old pirate, were not on Felton's side at this time.

The others watched the two groups in some silence, neither explicitly expressing their support for Becker's intentions, nor carrying out Barbarossa's orders to help Felton stop his thoughts.

The timid Neil hid behind the crowd tremblingly, always worried about the conflict between the two groups, he was actually on Becker's side, the reason was just that Becker was more friendly and kind to him on weekdays, sometimes he was bullied by other pirates, Becker would also come forward to help, but he really didn't have the courage to fight against the brutal Barbarossa, and the mentality of the other onlookers was actually similar to him.

Becker ignored the hand that Felton and his two cronies placed on the hilt of the knife at his waist, and the right hand, which was customary to draw the knife, held the barrel in his right hand, and the other hand also hung down naturally, and slowly walked in front of Felton.

Becker was quite tall, compared to Felton, who was shorter, and the difference between the two was even more evident when they were facing each other, and Becker looked at Felton condescendingly in the eyes.

After a few seconds, Felton was forced by Becker's momentum, and after turning his head a little weakly to avoid his gaze, Becker continued to look at Felton's two cronies, his pale blue eyes seemed to have some kind of magic, so that the two of them did not dare to look at each other, and quickly turned his gaze away.

Felton and the others, who were still menacing, faced Becker, and they didn't need him to speak before they were arrogant, and the other onlookers looked at me, I looked at you, and they didn't dare to gasp.

Silence is sometimes a strength, especially for people who are in the limelight, and the suffocating silence can cause a great deal of stress on the human psyche.

Becker waited until a trace of cold sweat began to ooze from Felton's forehead before he spoke, and he said in a calm and soothing tone: "Why, Felton, do you think that I am on the ship, and I can't even let a small boat go to sea?" ā€

Felton said with difficulty, "The captain said ......." ā€

"Oh," said Becker, smiling and sneering, "did the captain say he would let you take a bite of the Devil Fruit when he brought it back?" ā€

Felton clenched his teeth in embarrassment when he heard Becker making fun of him, but at this time Becker had already ignored him, turned around and walked to the boat, and said loudly without looking back: "You just do the captain's order, stay on the ship obediently, I will go to our captain to talk to the future of our brothers on this ship." ā€

The members of the ship had a long-standing dissatisfaction with Barbarossa, reaching its peak after Lacey's death, when Barbarossa launched a plan to find the Devil Fruit.

Without Reis's appeasement, Barbarossa's brutality towards his own people made everyone on the ship feel that everyone on board was in danger, and although the captain should have taken the bulk of the ship's booty, he gave a treasure worth 100 million Baileys and still had no market value to the Buendia family as a reward for finding someone, which made the pirates on the ship even more dissatisfied.

The crew endured the hardships of running to the windless zone, risking a fight with the Viking pirates, while the ship's most valuable loot had nothing to do with them, a task that was grossly disproportionate to the cost and reward, leaving the pirates complaining, and they were even more afraid that Barbarossa would make a similar decision in the future as the norm.

Becker put himself and the rest of the ship on the same page, and with his previous prestige, the surrounding pirates consciously made a way between Becker and the boat.

Becker threw the barrel on the boat, and jumped nimbly himself.

"Big Brother Becker, I'm going with you!" Eric yelled.

Becker laughed and said, "I'm going to talk to our captain 'alone', you listen to me, stay on the ship, and keep an eye on the captives with Akin." ā€

After Becker finished speaking, he had already swung his oars and sailed the small boat towards the ruined giant ship of the Viking Pirates.

When Becker left, Felton realized that Barbarossa was definitely not a big-hearted person, and he didn't know how he would punish himself when he came back and found that Becker had disobeyed his orders, and he and others had failed to stop him.

He angrily shouted to the people on board: "If you don't help me stop Becker, see how you will explain to the captain when he returns!" ā€

Felton angrily left with two cronies, but it is unknown how much of the anger on his face was genuine, and how much of it was disguised to clear his responsibilities.

Akin was quite dismissive of Felton's careful thoughts, and then looked in the direction of Becker's boat with some concern, but he knew that Becker had his own ideas for every decision, and since he decided to go to Barbarossa alone, there must be a reason.

Ah Jin is a quiet but very strong executive person, and he does not compromise on orders at all, which is also a trait that he values very much, at this time, Ah Jin knows that it is useless to worry, so he carries out the orders that Becker asked Eric to convey to monitor the prisoners, and in the same way, he knows that if Becker tells him so, then these prisoners must be useful to Becker.

Both groups left one after another, and the group of pirates on the deck gradually dispersed when they saw this, and Harrison, the ship's doctor, looked at the empty deck in the blink of an eye, and took a few sips with a flask on his face.

Becker rocked the boat to the side of the Viking Pirates' wrecked ship, and stomped it down with a barrel and a cable in his hand.

As the boat rocked, Becker had jumped onto the bow deck of the great ship, and he wrapped the ropes around the boat and fastened it, and then proceeded to the stern of the ship, of which Ragnar had spoken of the captain's quarters.

…………

Barbarossa boarded the Viking Pirates ship and headed straight for the captain's quarters.

Ragnar's Captain's Quarters were furnished in a very different manner from Captain Barbarossa's, equally spacious, but without as many luxuries, a little empty, with a large nautical chart hanging on one of the walls, and a rough but sturdy desk in the corner of the room, piled with many books, including nautical diaries.

Barbarossa rummaged through the room for a long time, but found no trace of the Devil Fruit, he was furious, and was even more angry at Becker's act of killing Ragnar without permission, if Becker was not a navigator, the Redbeard Pirates would still need to rely on Becker's ability to return afterwards, and Barbarossa would definitely hang him mercilessly.

After searching for a while, he finally gave up for a while, took out a copper flask from his bosom, poured wine into his mouth to quench his thirst, and finally had some doubts in his heart, wondering if one of Ragnar or Becker was lying, and the Devil Fruit was not here?

Thinking of this, Barbarossa couldn't help but angrily slam the flask to the ground, and the copper flask bounced on the ground a few times, and then fell next to the desk in the captain's room.

Because the nautical diaries and charts that recorded information about the Great Voyage were very valuable information and information, even if Barbarossa himself did not want to go to the Great Voyage and could not use it, he could still trade with others, so Barbarossa was quite careful when rummaging around Ragnar's desk, fearing that he would break the books.

The spout of the flask that fell to the foot of the desk was open, and the rum spilled on the ground along the spout, but the wine that fell to the ground did not come together, but quickly flowed down the gap around the dark grid.

Barbarossa, who happened to see this scene, was slightly stunned, and then he was overjoyed, he stepped forward and carefully moved the desk, and then lay on the ground, observing the traces of the disappearance of the wine flowing on the ground, and then clenched his fist and gently tapped the floor in the direction.

A crisp sound came from the place where it was struck, and Barbarossa did not hesitate to take out a dagger, use the tip of the knife to find the gap in the dark grid, and then squeeze hard, revealing a small space hidden under the floor.

A small and delicate treasure chest was hidden inside, and Barbarossa took out the treasure chest, opened it, and saw a fruit shaped like a melon, but the skin was covered by strange patterns, lying quietly in the treasure chest.

Barbarossa closed the chest again, and was about to get up, but her body stiffened.

A series of distinct footsteps came to his ears.

"Who is it?" There should have been no talent on the ship, Barbarossa was so suspicious that she didn't bother to pick up the box containing the Devil Fruit, and turned to look towards the door first, just as the footsteps also reached the door of the captain's room.

Holding the hilt of his sword, Becker blocked the door to the captain's quarters, and he glanced at Barbarossa with a smile on his face, and then his gaze fell on the desk that had been removed.

When Barbarossa saw that it was the navigator on her ship, she couldn't help but say angrily: "Becker, what are you doing!" ā€

Becker lit a cigarette in silence, and after spitting out a smoke ring, he said in a cold voice: "Barbarossa, you don't know how long I've been waiting for this day!" ā€
