"Ho Ho Ho, are you leaving?"

Lafitte was still the same as before, and after being recalled by Rhodes, he smiled and pinched the brim of his top hat and nodded slightly.

For him, the seven months on the Sky Island can be said to be very boring, and the Devil Fruit that Rhodes asked him to search for has not seen a shadow at all.

Of course.

The main purpose of coming to Sky Island is to avoid the extremely dangerous situation that the government and navy may create under the wrath of the government, so Lafitte understands things despite being very bored.

"There has been no sailing for seven months, so the level of navigation should not have dropped, right?"

Rhodes chuckled at Lafitte.

Lafitte's strength has also improved a little in the past seven months, even if he is still not the opponent of the lieutenant general of the headquarters, but he can still deal with the ordinary branch lieutenant general for a while.

As for Robin, her current strength is probably even stronger than she remembered after stepping into the new world, even if she is not as good as Lafitte, she is still capable of fighting against ordinary major generals.

"Ho ho ho ho ...... The captain will soon be able to see it. ”

Lafitte held her cane and opened her arms slightly, revealing a smile.

"Give me an order for the Bika tribe to continue searching for the Devil Fruit, and if they find it, immediately hand it over to the chief for safekeeping." Rhodes commanded.

Bika has been submissive to him and Lafitte in the past seven months, especially the chief and many priests, who have been brainwashed by Lafitte one by one with a wave of deep hypnosis.

Even if the Thunder Fruit appeared, as long as it fell into the hands of these priests and chiefs, they would immediately hide it in fear, waiting for his return.

"Okay."

Lafitte made an aristocratic ritual and turned to walk outside.

Rhodes pondered it again to make sure there was nothing missing, and then walked with Robin towards the edge of the island, and soon came to the docks to reboard the Ghost.

There were few sailors on the ship, and Rhodes chose three Sky Island people to board the ship in Bica, one man and two women, the male was a strong man, second only to the chieftain and priest of Bica, one of the two women was a skilled chef, and the other was one of the seventeen-year-old candidates for the priest's waiter, like an elf, Rhodes felt that serving the priest was too wasteful, so he changed her fate.

Although Robin is very capable, it is good to have someone to share it with her.

On the ship today, Rhodes' authority is unshakable, followed by Lafitte and Robin, both of whom belong to the ship's cadres, and the rest are of the same rank.

Soon.

Lafitte gave Rhodes' orders and returned to the Shadow.

"Next stop, Beihai."

After Lafitte's return, Rhodes calmly recounted: "It's time for a ship doctor on board." ”

Rhodes had been considering a ship doctor for a long time, torn between the future Blackbeard Pirates' Poison Q and the dead surgeon Trafalgaro.

Because Luo was too young before, Rhodes had been searching for information about Poison Q, but he never found it, and finally decided to change his candidate and go to the North Sea to find Trafalgaro.

Robbie Luffy is seven years older, and this year should be around fifteen years old, which is exactly the age when he is about to get rid of immaturity and cannot take charge on his own, and it is the most suitable time to accept it.

"The location has been decided, and it seems that the captain has already been chosen."

Lafitte had a small smile on her face.

If there is a ship doctor on board, you don't have to worry about encountering a strong enemy, being seriously injured and unable to heal and eventually dying, and the minor injuries and illnesses of the voyage on weekdays are also guaranteed.

Of course, more importantly, Rhodes' vision is extremely high, and the person who can be selected by Rhodes may also be reassuring in terms of strength.

"Let's go."

After Rhodes nodded, he raised his foot and stepped lightly, and the ghost horn roared and trembled, and the sea clouds below cracked silently to both sides, and a huge crack that was hundreds of meters long across the sea appeared.

The Ghost Shadow was just in the cracks, falling suddenly, and finally vanished.

……

A few days later.

On a ship cruising the surface of the sea with the flag of the World Government, a man in a top hat and on his shoulder stood a man with a telephone bug to the other side.

He is under the command of the World Government, known as the strongest person in CP9 for 800 years, Rob Roach.

More than half a year ago, the World Government's mission to secretly assassinate and execute the ghost Hand Rhodes and secretly arrest Nico Robin, the son of the devil, was given to him.

"Seven months...... Finally it appeared, but how could it be in the North Sea......"

Lu Qi listened to the information reported by the phone bug on the other side, frowning slightly, revealing a look of thought.

"Did the damn Ghost Hand Pirates finally show up?!"

Standing next to him, Spandam listened to the conversation between Luqi and the phone bug on the other end, and there was a hint of annoyance in his eyes.

The tasks assigned by the government will not be completed directly because the Ghost Hand Pirates are missing, but will always be hung on CP9's head.

As the current chief of CP9, he has been delayed by a task for more than half a year, and he can't get any credit, he is very annoyed with the Ghost Hand Pirates, and in the past, with the work efficiency of Lu Qi and others, the credit can be brushed up, which is why his father specially transferred his authority and transferred him to CP9 to serve as the commander.

As long as you stay in CP9 for ten or eight years, it is a matter of course to move up to the top of the government, and then you will be able to overlook the entire sea from above.

“……”

Luki's hatred for Spendam is far greater than the pirates he defeated, but because he is a commander, he has been trained to obey orders since he was a child, and he can only suppress the dislike of Spendam in his heart.

He hung up the phone bug, turned to look at Spandham, and said, "The Ghost Hand Pirates have appeared in the North Sea, and I think we can go to the North Sea now, what do you think?" ”

Spendam hesitated, then gritted his teeth and nodded.

Although he didn't want to go that far, the task issued by the world government to be completed quickly had dragged on for half a year, and now the Ghost Hand Pirates have appeared, and if the government knows that he has done nothing on his side, I am afraid that the condemnation order will come down.

"Prepare the naval fleet in the North Sea for support...... No, let's let the branch base on the Great Voyage send warships directly to the North Sea. ”

Ghost Hand Rhodes wiped out the elite of the naval branch, and destroyed the king's seven martial seas Klockdar, Spandam is still clear, although he trusts the strength of Lu Qi and others, but for him who is greedy for life and afraid of death, of course, the more secure the better.

Lu Qi shook his head imperceptibly, his eyes full of boredom, but Spendam was the chief of CP9, and the decision he made was CP9's decision.

Unable to vent his frustration on Spendham, Luci's emotions quickly shifted to the culprit who had caused them to wander around the sea for more than half a year......

"There are still four months to go, and the one-year mission period will be completed, so don't disappear again inexplicably...... The Ghost Hand Pirates. ”
