Chapter 16: A Choice
As soon as Bucky had an ominous premonition in his mind, he felt something grab his shoulder, and then a huge force came from his shoulder, and Bucky found himself flying into the air......
At the same time, there was Luffy's yelling in his ears, "It's a replacement!" ”
Bucky adjusted his position in the air, stabilized his body with moon steps, and yelled, "Bastard boy! Are you an idiot? ”
The surrounding onlookers also yelled in unison, "Big idiot! ”
However, Luffy obviously ignored these and directly took a "rubber bell", and the battle began!
Bucky said that Luffy made a move, and he could start paddling.
Taking advantage of the fact that everyone's attention was not on him, he returned to the roof of Aaron Paradise with a moon step, took the treasure, and slipped away......
On the Brackudup, most of the Bucky boys had already returned to the ship.
"Hasn't Captain Bucky come back yet?" A little brother who was sitting on the deck playing cards with his companions suddenly said.
"No...... I don't know where the captain has gone, there has been a lot of movement over there, could it be related to the captain? ”
"I don't know, but if it is, are we going to help?"
"That kind of noise, it must be a battle between monsters, do you think we can help?"
"It seems to be the same, let's continue to play cards, haha."
"Go ahead...... Yes! I won! ”
On the other side, Kabaji and Mochi are also communicating.
"Hasn't the captain been a little different lately?" Kabaji was a little puzzled, "He would never be so amicable before, whether it was for us or others, it would never be possible to rob the naval base, and he really succeeded, it was like a different person." ”
"I think so, too, but I think this Captain Bucky is not bad, much more reliable," Mochi didn't have the usual stupid feeling at this time, "Do you remember what we followed the captain in the first place?" ”
"I was just an acrobat who knew how to do swordsmanship, and you were just a little animal trainer, thanks to Captain Bucky, who took a fancy to us and recruited us, and this is why we have been happy in the East China Sea for so ......long, and now we have been living for more than ten years," Kabaji said with some silence.
Mochi also nodded sympathetically, and continued, "Everything changed when that straw hat boy appeared, the captain seems to be very compatible with him, depending on the situation, he will soon leave the East China Sea to go outside, and after so long, I don't know how the captain ignited his enthusiasm...... Kabaji, do you want to go out and explore? ”
"What's the point? All I want to do in my life is to follow Captain Bucky! I can't do this kind of thing when I go back and be a juggler or something! Kabaji leaned against the wall and stroked his bangs.
"Me too! But...... We're too weak......" Mochi nodded again, then became a little sad.
"Yes, Rorozoa Zoro, he defeated me with one blow, but, to that extent, in this sea, he is also only a weakling......"
"Captain Bucky!!" Mochi was about to say something, but suddenly a crew member shouted, and the two hurriedly ran over.
I saw that not far away, Bucky came back with a big bag on his back, still with a familiar red nose and a familiar smile!
The two of them also shouted together, "Captain Bucky!!" ”
As Bucky approached his ship, he suddenly heard the shouts of his men in front of him, and the smile on his face became even brighter, "Ahahaha! Little ones! Uncle Ben is back! ”
I should have known that everyone has their own world, and although I occasionally envy other people's worlds, I always find that in the end, it is really my own world that is the warmest.
……
"Little ones? Have you bought everything? Bucky threw the treasure on the deck, making a clanging sound, and the ship was full of people who understood, and naturally knew what was inside, and couldn't help but admire, the captain is the captain, and the treasure or something is really easy.
"A team of food has been bought!"
"The second team of fine wine is no problem!"
"The three teams of fresh water have also been replenished!"
"Four teams of weapons...... Not good yet. The last little leader said with an embarrassed expression.
"Why is it so slow? Uncle Ben needs to explain! Bucky's face darkened, and he squinted.
"This ...... I don't know why, there are no weapons in the town......" The little leader fell to his knees in fright, and said with a frightened expression.
"Hmm......" Bucky waved his hand, "let them come back, it's really hard to get weapons here, and Uncle Ben blames you." ”
The little leader wiped his sweat with a happy face.
Bucky sat in his chair resting, thinking about what he was going to say next, something he didn't want to do, but he had to do.
It didn't take long for all the younger brothers to come back.
Bucky opened his eyes and looked at the dozens of people in front of him, his gaze swept over one by one.
"Brethren!"
Everyone looked up at Bucky, and someone noticed that the captain had changed the name of them.
"I think you also realized that the straw hat boy made me get my young self back, do any of you still know my dream?" Bucky's voice was no longer the kind of flamboyant shouting, but a little low, and everyone was a little unaccustomed to it, but they still knew the meaning of the captain's words.
"Find treasures all over the world!" Kabaji spoke, his voice shaking.
"That's right! Do you know the origin of Uncle Ben? Bucky nodded and continued.
"This ......," Kabaji was silent.
"Does One Piece Roger know? I used to be one of Captain Roger's men. ”
"What?!" All the little brothers opened their mouths in shock, and some even sat on the ground in fright, after all, this news is too exciting!
"I used to roam this sea, and then, when the captain died, I hid here in the East China Sea as a real clown...... Now, when I see the Straw Hat Kid, I suddenly remember that my dream has not yet been realized! So, I want to continue to wander, not for any One Piece or any honor, but simply to ...... Treasure hunt! ”
Everyone was silent, and some of the younger brothers had already guessed what the captain meant.
"But, this is my dream, not yours! Now, you have a choice, do you want to follow me, or do you want to leave? If you leave, I can give you the treasure, and then it's up to you whether you want to spend the rest of your life with it back to your family, find a new town, or rejoin another, less dangerous group of pirates. But if you choose to follow me, you will experience nine deaths, you will experience despair, after all, in front of those monsters, you are real waste, they can kill you even if they look at you! Now, take your pick! ”
After saying this long list of words, Bucky closed his eyes, what he wanted was a man who really wanted to follow him!
