"Puff puff—"

Bucky answers the phone bug, and it's Inu-lan who dials it.

"Bucky ......"

On the other end of the phone bug, Inu Lan let out a low wry laugh, "Regarding this matter you told me, it is up to him to tell you personally." ”

Then, the voice on the other side changed, and became very crisp and hearty: "Haha, Bucky, I'm Shanks!" ”

"I can hear you." Bucky laughed, "It's been a long time. ”

Shanks asked, "Hey, I've heard that you fought Kaido and single-handedly broke into Bigu Mam's territory, is this all true?" ”

"It's true, I didn't expect the news to spread so quickly, even you know it."

"It's not just me, now I'm afraid the whole world knows your ability, I really didn't expect you to hide so deeply, even I have been deceived by you for so many years, I always thought that you only cared about gold and silver treasures, but now it doesn't seem like that......"

"I just kept a knot in my heart all along, and why didn't we do what Captain Roger didn't do back then?"

"The time has not yet come...... Now it's time to rush it. ”

"I don't want to play dumb riddles with you, you should know why Inu-lan is looking for you."

"Ally......" Shankston paused, "what the hell do you want?" ”

Bucky said, "Become the King of the Pirates." ”

"You should understand that I am a person who does not like to be restrained, and such a thing as an alliance is too troublesome for me." Shanks's tone was free and flat.

"No one can avoid the tide of the times, the whole world will be overturned and affected, even you, it is impossible to avoid it."

"I know that from the time I didn't stop Whitebeard, the subtle era will disappear, and the peace will not last forever, but before the tide comes, let me be lazy for a while."

The plank under Bucky's feet cracked four or five cracks, and he exhaled, "I still can't get along with you......"

"It's hard to have a chance to chat, don't say such excessive words! Ha ha! Shanks laughed nonchalantly, "If you come to visit me sometime, I'll set up a banquet to entertain you!" ”

"No need...... Bucky put down the phone bug, "I still hate your kind of nature of not caring about anything, so be it...... Inu Lan, forget about this matter, if there is anything I need your help with in the future, I will ask you. ”

After speaking, without waiting for a reply from the other side, he hung up the phone bug.

Probably because of nature or instinct, even as an omniscient traverser, Bucky could not avoid being affected by this sudden emotion, and he was not surprised by the generation of this emotion, as if it were taken for granted.

Shanks now has one of the most powerful forces in the New World as the Four Emperors, and it would be great if he could form an alliance with him, but it would be too optimistic to pin all his hopes on him.

Since Shanks's attitude shows that Bucky is not willing to talk nonsense anymore, it is also because of his understanding of the other party's personality, and the practice of dragging is very stupid, so he chooses to give up wooing.

"Mr. Bucky, the ship is docked!" Outside the door came the shouts of the fish-man crew.

Bucky continued to sit and only stood up after a while before heading out.

……

Back on the sacrificial island, Jinping talked to those fish-man warriors sent by Neptune, and learned that the working hours, food and living conditions of these warriors were very proper, which also made him completely relieved of his worries before coming, and instantly had the urge to join Bucky's command, but after calming down, he put this idea out of his mind, because he had promised others a year ago, how could he not keep his promise and violate chivalry?

However, after much deliberation, he made a new decision, transferring the position of captain of the Sun Pirates to Aladdin, the deputy captain, and Aladdin chose the direction of the Sun Pirates, joining Bucky's command or going alone.

Aladdin knows that it is not easy to fight alone in the new world, and he is very moved by Bucky's way of taking care of his fellow fishmen, and he also understands the meaning of Jinping, Bucky has the strength to not lose to the Four Emperors, and has a benevolent heart for the fishmen, and it is also the best choice to rely on him.

Since the establishment of Tiger, the Sun Pirates have always had the original intention of rescuing the fishmen who were bullied by humans, and now that Bucky's flag has been planted on Fish-Man Island, the pirates on the way will not dare to invade, even if Tiger is faced with such a choice, he will choose to join it......

Aladdin consulted the crew and pledged his allegiance to Bucky.

Bucky was also happy to see the Sun Pirates surrender, and introduced Aladdin to the cadres and captains of the Pirates, and handed over the command of the Fishman Escort to Aladdin, who was responsible for assisting in the defense and listening to the call.

Then he asked where Jinping was, and Aladdin bluntly said that Jinping had gone to the Chambord Islands, and Bucky knew about Jinping's situation, so he didn't ask any more.

The day after returning to the island, there was another "puff" sound of a phone bug.

Answering the phone, there was a mixed noise on the other side, which gradually calmed down, and then came a very polite inquiry, "Is it Mr. Bucky?" I'm Portcas. Ace. ”

"Croquelda delivered the letter." Bucky said something and said, "Yes, it's me." ”

"I'll just say this guy doesn't dare to play any tricks here!"

"No, crocodiles aren't straight creatures."

"That's right, I still remember this voice."

There were all kinds of noises on the other side of the phone bug, and then a stop was heard, "Ace is still talking, don't make any noise yet." ”

As you can imagine, Bucky's many captains of the Whitebeard Regiment should be surrounding the phone bugs, and after the noise was subdued, Ace continued, "Thank you Mr. Bucky for the war, whether it was to save me who was a prisoner at the time, or to recapture my father's body, Mr. Bucky has contributed a lot......"

Speaking of this, Ace's voice became low, as if he was kowtowing on the other end of the phone bug, and said seriously, "Ace is here to thank you!" ”

Immediately afterward, the unanimous voice of everyone in the Whitebeard Regiment was heard, "On behalf of the Whitebeard Regiment, we would like to thank Mr. Bucky!" ”

Bucky's contribution to the war on the top is also largely for himself, but the people of the Whitebeard Regiment don't know about it, and they don't think so, just by relying on the phrase "he is the captain's son", he can rush to help without hesitation, how can such loyalty find the slightest flaw?

"You're welcome, since you can afford me......"

Bucky got straight to the point, "So, would you like to work with me again?" ”
