This is the first half of the Great Passage.

At this time.

It's been a while since the end of the last battle.

Since the victory of the Grass Country, the life of the sea pirates has become more and more difficult day by day, and even the pirate flag does not dare to hang it easily.

After all, it is lucky not to be hanged and dried by the country of grass, and now it is difficult for pirates to dare to swagger through the market and loot ashore like before?

But not looting...... Where did the pirates come to Bailey to sustain the high costs of sailing, adventure, and partying?

Pirates are looking for freedom, not a poor traveler!

Therefore, with the dark prospects of the pirate industry, the narrow living space and the harsh environment, many pirates began to divide their belongings and return to their hometowns to work.

Although it is not easy to return to his hometown because of his experience as a pirate, and it is not as easy as others to find a job, it is better than driving a broken ship on the sea, following the captain to pursue freedom, and starving for nine meals in three days!

And today.

The only pirate group that is rumored to have escaped from the country of grass, the former king of the Seven Martial Seas, the survivors of the final battle, and the Bucky Pirates who have not been disbanded until now, must also make a choice.

Bucky's face darkened, and after glancing at the resignation application in his hand, he looked up at the crew members who were standing in front of him.

Although he is a pirate...... When he left the job, he actually prepared a resignation application, so he didn't know how to complain in his heart, but now this is not the point, more importantly......

"Are you going to betray the Bucky Pirates, your captain and me?"

That's right, the partner in front of me actually proposed to resign from him?

Damn it!

As the captain of the ship, he has not yet announced the disbandment of the Bucky Pirates, how dare these guys do this?

This is not taking him as a captain at all!

However.

"Boss Bucky, please don't say that!" Facing Captain Bucky's anger, the Bucky Pirates crew was not as fearful as before, and after only a sneer appeared on their faces, they said, "After all, the situation is different now! How can we be considered betrayal?"

"That's right! At most, it's just a job hop! How can the job change be a betrayal?"

"Boss Bucky, the pirates have no way to make money!"

The Bucky Pirates crew kept explaining to Captain Bucky in front of them that if it was before, they might have been scared in the face of an angry captain, but now it's different!

"Boss Bucky, the pirates can't be anymore! You won't change jobs to deliver couriers, and now no one will let Bucky Express deliver mercenaries and munitions, it's illegal! Do the Foksy Pirates next door know? Because the looting business could not continue, he went into the business of selling arms, and in the end, the captain and all the crew were hoisted."

"Brothers, I just don't want to starve with you! Even Boss Mochi and Kabaji think so, and I even secretly saw them send resumes to the Tokai Talent Recruitment!"

As soon as these words fell.

Bucky, who was originally blushing for a while by his crew, suddenly couldn't hold back anymore and slapped the table angrily.

The big red nose was particularly conspicuous at this moment, glaring at his left arm and right arm in front of him, "Damn! Mochi, Kabaji, did you two betray me too?"

"Oh, no! No! Calm down, Captain! I'm just looking! I haven't found a job yet, but Mochi has found it, it's a farm job, and I heard that Mochi is still very valued there, and he offers a very good salary!"

"Damn! Kabaji, you bastard, did you betray me before you got a job? I remember you got a job as a driver, only because you could only pedal a unicycle, and in the end, you were rejected! What a shame!"

"Mochi, what are you talking about? I refused because I didn't like to be a driver!"

"I saw that you also signed up for the driver's license test!"

"You're peeking at me?"

"Obviously you peeked at me first, okay?"

The two of them suddenly blushed in front of Captain Bucky as they had done before.

Merely.

This time the quarrel was a little different.

And after hearing the conversation between the two, Bucky still didn't understand...... These two guys are really secretly looking for work.

And there's another one found?!

The salary and treatment seem to be very good?

Now.

As the captain of the Bucky Pirates, Bucky the Clown finally couldn't help it, and slapped the table angrily again, "Shut up Lao Tzu!"

Then he glared at the two people in front of him, "And you two guys really betrayed me?"

「……」

This time, when confronted by Captain Bucky, Mochi and Kabaji did not answer immediately, but laughed a little.

Murky carefully pulled out a newspaper and said, "Captain Bucky, you know! Now that there is no future for pirates, we will have no money if we don't loot, and it will be easy to be hanged if we rob, and everyone has already disbanded the pirates, and even the Whitebeard Pirates are now called the Whitebeard Group, and they are still engaged in the business of transporting large goods!"

That's right, not long ago the Whitebeard Pirates announced their disbandment!

But it didn't take long for the Whitebeard Cargo Group to be founded, and all the crew members did not leave, just like a family business.

In addition, they were still the Four Emperors of the Sea back then, and there were a lot of people and ships in their hands, and there were many strong people at the same time, so there was no need to worry about the sea kings, and Whitebeard's reputation as the Four Emperors, safety was guaranteed, and they occupied a large transportation industry at once.

It's a boom now!

"And this morning......" Mochi spread out the newspaper in his hand and pointed to it, "the latest policy of the Grass Country is out again."

I saw that the newspaper said......

[The pirates return to their hometowns, build their homes, and gather the majestic power of the sea! ] 】

"Now the country of grass is holding a pirate return operation, as long as those who return to their hometowns now, after review, it is not a particularly serious crime. The country of grass will be dealt with lightly, and the local rural and security departments will also assist the pirates to re-employ, and even if you don't have a skill, they will also arrange for you to study, and the pirates who return to their hometowns from now on will not have to be discriminated against because of their status as pirates!"

"And you haven't been back to your hometown for a long time! So, everyone is homesick and wants to go back to their hometown!"

Moki kicked the lion who was pretending to be dead at his feet, and after a moment of silence at Captain Bucky, who was still very angry, he sighed again and said, "Captain Bucky, times have changed!"

With this sentence falling.

「……」

The anger in Bucky's heart seemed to be suddenly vented, and he disappeared without a trace.

The whole person fell silent.

That's right!

Even he had to admit it.

Times have changed!

The era of pirates that Captain Roger once started came to an abrupt end.

Although he still wants to continue his adventures, he still wants to find treasures, and even wants to sit on the throne of Captain Roger and find the Ravtan Road!

But...... Times have changed!

He also knew that more and more pirates were abandoning their adventures and returning to their homeland.

This moment.

The whole dilapidated cabin fell silent, except for the "creaking" sound that seemed to be unstable as it sailed.

This former partner of the Bucky Pirates has also become dilapidated because of lack of money and disrepair!

The situation of the pirates......

You can imagine it.

I don't know how long it took.

Looking at the silent and lost Captain Bucky, as the left arm and right arm that had been following Captain Bucky, Mochi was still a little unbearable in his heart, hesitated for a moment, and said with relief, "Or! Captain Bucky is also coming back to the East China Sea with us? I heard that the East China Sea is now developing economically

Very good, there is a shortage of people everywhere to work, I believe that with Captain Bucky's ability to move bricks, he will definitely be very popular, just like that rubber boy, and also become a celebrity in the brick moving world!"

Merely.

What is the ......

"Fuck off!" He is the captain of the Bucky Pirates, the former king of the Seven Martial Seas, a sea thief, and he actually asked him to move bricks?

Bucky looked at Mochi in front of him and roared without hesitation, "My clown Bucky, even if he starves and dies here, drowned in the sea, he will never move bricks!"

As he spoke, he pointed out angrily.

"Since you want to leave, get out of here! Fuck off Uncle Ben! That's right, you're all fired!"

"Captain Bucky......

"Get me out of here!"

Kicked everyone out, and slammed the gates.

After closing it, the originally angry Bucky fell silent again, and lowered his head to look at the newspaper that Mochi had brought.

[Pirate homecoming boom! ] 】

[The former second-in-command of the Whitebeard Pirates, the son of One Piece, Fire Fist Ace reformed himself, founded the transportation industry, and led the people of the East China Sea who were not wealthy to develop together......]

「……」

This......

Don't talk about him!

It is estimated that Captain Roger was reborn, and he probably didn't expect that his son would return to his hometown to lead the villagers to develop together and achieve common prosperity!

Although he was melancholy in his heart, Bucky had to admit, "Times have really changed!"

The Age of the Sea Pirates created by Captain Roger...... Maybe it's going to disappear like this!

Then.

Just when he sighed.

"Brubru! Brubru!"

A familiar phone bug rings.

Bucky's face froze, and then he quickly turned over the garbage that had not been disposed of in a long time on the table and at his feet, looking for the old-fashioned phone bug that hadn't rang in a long time.

It wasn't until I finally found it that I took a breath, quickly connected, and said in a playful tone, "This is Bucky Express, what are your instructions, do you need to transport large or small items?" We have professional couriers and courier ships, and now you can get a 20% discount on a full boat, Bucky Express, everything is delivered, everything is fast!"

I read the advertisement I had already thought of in one go.

However.

Just when he was looking forward to his transformation, he would be able to receive the first order, so that Bucky Express could sustain and even make a lot of money...... Today you ignore my love, tomorrow you can't climb high, and let the group of sailors who betrayed you envy and hate.

Turning into a red-haired phone bug, a familiar sound of joy came out, "Ah~, Bucky, didn't you say that even if you die, you won't send those messy things? Now you're going to change transportation like the Whitebeard Pirates?"

"It's you! Damn Shanks~" After hearing the voice of Shanks' phone bug, Bucky suddenly pursed his mouth in disgust, and then said proudly, "Uncle Ben is not poor, he just wants to make a little bit of business with those poor ghosts!"

"Hahaha, it's still the same, so energetic! Bucky~,It's just that your phone bug should be changed.,I've been calling for a long time.,It's only time to get through to your phone.,Now the new 5G phone bug launched by the country of grass.,The signal is quite sufficient.,There is a signal in the entire sea.,Even if it's Ravtan Road, you can also receive a signal.,You can also make a video call! The price is not expensive, and the top exclusive customized version is only 10 million Bailey!"

「……」

Ten million Baileys?

I can't even pay a million Baileys now!

Damn rich people!

Hearing the words of the rich man with the red hair, the impoverished Bucky suddenly became angry, and then looked at the dilapidated cabin and sighed in disappointment.

After the major pirates were re-employed, in addition to their poor pirates, there were also more affluent pirates, such as the Whitebeard Pirates and Shanks.

The Whitebeard Pirates are because of the large number of territories and the addition of Whitebeard

is also a thrifty parent, therefore, the Whitebeard Pirates have accumulated a lot of money, and later have the money and confidence to create the Whitebeard family group.

And the redhead guy ...... It's just a rich man!

And the daughter of the family is still the No. 1 singer in the sea, and the cheapest concert tickets can be sold for millions of tickets, so there is no shortage of money at all.

Not like him...... Originally, he thought that a better day was coming, and he created Bucky Express, thinking that there was chaos everywhere at that time, and he would definitely make a lot of money by transporting mercenaries by himself.

Outcome.

It's over!

The World Government fell, and the god of the World Government, Yin Mu, was also beaten and killed by the Grass Country.

So, in the end...... The cost he invested has not been recovered, and it is over!

As for secretly coming like other pirates...... Although he Bucky has dreams, he doesn't want to be hanged by the country of grass.

Even after being hanged, the Devil Fruit will be taken by others!

In the end, he saw Blackbeard's fate with his own eyes at the time of the First World War, and he heard that Blackbeard was still cooperating with the country of grass at that time, but what was the result?

After being killed, the people of the Grass Country appeared.

And then.

Turned into a devil fruit, and even his own pirate ship was taken away by the guys in the country of grass.

It's even more ruthless than pirates!

The kind of goose that plucked its feathers!

It's ruthless!

At that time, Blackbeard deliberately endured a breath and scolded the country of grass before he swallowed his breath!

Bucky sighed, shook off the cranky thoughts in his head, and then said angrily, "Say it! What's the matter with you? Tell you, I'm very busy right now, and I don't have time to answer the phone because of a lot of business~"

"Hahaha, are you so busy? I've also heard that the Bucky Express is going to disperse, so it looks like it's just a rumor!" It seems that because of the very good development of his old friend, Shanks Telephone Bug also seemed very happy and said, "It's just a little thing to find you, by the way, do you have a TV over there?" Please open him!"

"Absolutely! It's the latest 4K TV!" Bucky said smugly as he brushed aside the pile of trash and found his old TV, "What's wrong?"

"Open the Tokai Channel!"

"Tokai Channel? What do you want to do?"

"Open! Is it open? Hurry up, it's going to be too late!"

"Not yet! This old TV ...... Ahem, I don't have a very good signal here, now it's okay, hell, what do you want me to see? Tokai Technician Competition?"

"That's right! That's right! That's it, do you see the one called Luffy who is on the scene now? I just want you to vote for him for me, please!"

「……」

That's it?

I thought something was really wrong!

Bucky yelled with a dark face, "Fuck off!"
