Chapter 16 The Determination of the Cadres
From the beginning, Bucky had his own plans and ideas, and although he was not afraid of slashing, there was no need to entangle with Sauron now.
His real purpose was to make the two cadres on the ship more aware of their weakness, and in this world, weakness cannot do anything.
Bucky placed Kabaji and Sakurabuki on the deck and ordered the only troughnose pirate on the ship who knew some medical skills to bring Kabaji over to be bandaged.
He leaned on the railing of the boat, looking at Sauron, who was paddling desperately with his hands as if he had been beaten with chicken blood, and shouted "bastard" and "don't run" from time to time, he couldn't help but feel a little ridiculous, and beckoned a pirate to come: "You go and pull the cannon over." ”
"Yes, Captain Bucky." The pirate moved very quickly, pulled a cannon over, and at Bucky's command, took Bucky's cannonballs and loaded them into the gun carriage.
Bucky himself took the torch and aimed the muzzle of the gun at the boat, lighting the fuse, "Goodbye, Roronoa. Zoro. ”
The Bucky cannonball blasted out towards Zoro the moment the fuse burned out, and the next moment it blew up the boat with precision, like a beautiful firework bursting, sending waves of sea water in the vicinity, and billowing black smoke rising in the air in the distance.
Seeing this undoubted victory, Bucky turned around and stopped looking there, he didn't think that Sauron, known as the monster of the East China Sea, should be killed so easily, if he really died, it was also his fate.
In order to avoid the other party continuing to chase after and causing more trouble to yourself, this approach is currently the most neat and safe.
Subsequently, Bucky ordered someone to count the number of pirates on the ship, excluding himself and two cadres, there were originally forty-two pirates on the ship, but now it seems that three are missing, and only thirty-nine remain.
Bucky didn't know if the three pirates he didn't even know their names died at the hands of Zoro, or for other reasons, he didn't have too big waves in his heart, survival of the fittest, this was originally a cruel law among pirates, if you don't want to die, you can only make yourself stronger.
Most of the pirates who defended the ship and the pirates who returned to the pirate ship early were injured by Sauron, and they were more or less colored, but fortunately, there were enough bandages and herbs in the warehouse, and after a day, the wounds of these pirates that were not serious began to heal.
Most of the pirates who are at the helm of the pirate ship, cleaning the warehouse and deck, patrolling and standing guard, cooking and cooking, and in charge of medical care are all there, although these people are ordinary to the point that they have no margins, but they are still performing their own duties, and Bucky has no plans to replenish the manpower at present, so the streamlined model may be better.
The next day, Bucky summoned Mochi and Kabaji to the captain's room, the injuries of these two guys have improved a lot, most of the guys with names and surnames in the One Piece world are not easy to die, don't look at these two people in the original book are just tricks, but in fact, think about it, none of the thousands of people who can stand out in this world are ordinary people, of course, it is also caused by the unique environment of this world itself, this, Usopp is an ordinary person who can be seriously injured many times without dying, and the tenacity of life, It can definitely be used as a model and teaching material.
Kabaji and Mochi sat in the chairs next to them, no more noisy than before, bowing their heads and waiting for Bucky's reprimand.
Bucky took a cup of hot tea and said, "Is there anything you guys want to say?" ”
Kabaji and Mochi shook their heads in surprising agreement: "No." ”
A mere nameless bounty hunter has picked the ship all but once, and defeated them so much that even they themselves can't find any reason to hide their defeat.
"In that case, then let me tell you, in this part of the East China Sea, there are not a few monsters with similar strength to this bounty hunter, and there are countless on the great voyage." Although there is an element of exaggeration in this statement, it is not far off, Bucky frowned, "I can also tell you very bluntly, my purpose is to dominate the great voyage, and with our current strength, we can't make a single wave on the great voyage." ”
"If you want to get off the ship now, I won't stop you, but...... If you want to continue to follow me, use your energy and try to improve your strength as much as possible before going on the Great Voyage, and it is up to you to decide whether the former or the latter. ”
After saying this, Bucky raised the teacup again, took a sip, and calmly waited for their answer, he just wanted to set up a visible and tangible opponent for the two of them, just like Sauron's challenge to Hawkeye, but the current situation was not as tragic as Sauron's defeat to Hawkeye in the original book.
In the same way, Sauron's strength will definitely cause a lot of psychological shadows to the two of them, and once the fear stops under this shadow, it means that there is no possibility for them to grow in the future.
Such a crew, even if it is brought to the great voyage, will quickly retreat, the world of pirates is a world of huddles after all, and it is absolutely impossible to achieve anything big by doing it alone, whether it is Roger at the beginning, or the current Four Emperors, it is a team composed of strong and strong people united, such a team can withstand the pressure of swarming from all directions, and it is as solid as a rock.
As a man with ambition in his bones, Bucky must know if the determination of his two cadres is enough to sustain him on the great voyage, if not even so......
The process of waiting for an answer is long, and the process of choosing an answer is also very painful.
Kabaji raised his head weakly and looked at Bucky in surprise, he felt that the captain who had followed him for so many years had suddenly become a little different, he couldn't say anything different, but it made people have a feeling that he couldn't figure it out, maybe this usually inconspicuous captain would only show his true face when he showed his ambitions.
He slowly lowered his head again, whether to go or stay, whether to surpass himself or continue to be obscure, just between this thought.
Mochi didn't think as much as Kabach, he would do whatever Captain Bucky said on weekdays, and he wouldn't think about why he did it or what the consequences would be if he did such a thing, but today Captain Bucky didn't give an order as usual, but threw him a deadly multiple-choice question, and he suddenly felt a little scared and at a loss in his heart.
Bucky is waiting, if these two cadres have the same desire to become stronger as him, he will not hide his secrets, and the Navy Six in his notebook will be shared with them without reservation, but if they retreat here, they will be doomed to their future membership nameless, drowning in the endless wave of pirates.
Kabaji thought for a long time, knelt on his knees, solemnly and resolutely, and swore in the highest form: "I, Kabaji of the Bucky Pirates, swear to follow Captain Bucky to the death. ”
Seeing this, Mochi also seemed to have made up his mind, and knelt down not to be outdone: "I, Mochi of the Bucky Pirates, swear to follow Captain Bucky to the death." ”
