"Of course, you don't have to worry about anything, in addition to the Devil Fruit, there are many other ways to become stronger, such as physical arts and swordsmanship, and when you embark on the great voyage, you will find that this world is too vast, and there are many examples of being extremely powerful without relying on the Devil Fruit."

Bart saw that Ace was a little bored and comforted.

"You know a lot, Bart, if only you could join my pirates."

Ace looked at Bart with burning eyes, his eyes showed a look of longing, with such a powerful companion, the journey would definitely be very safe.

"However, I also know that people like you are not willing to be subservient, which is a pity."

Before Bart could speak, Ace understood his mind first.

The stronger the people on this sea, the more proud they are, and they are all willing to be the bosses themselves, and Bart is no exception.

While the two were talking, Mayor Mare came over with little Kailin.

The little girl with red and swollen eyes bowed to Ace, "Thank you for saving me." ”

"I'm sorry, Mr. Ace, we thought you were in the same group of pirates who came to raid."

The mayor of the town also apologizes to Ace personally, and he learns from the residents that Ace saved them.

"Ah, little thing, it's fine, but you must not provoke the pirates again in the future."

Ace said, he was also surprised that a little sister-in-law Liang actually wanted to kill the pirates like a mad dog.

"Well, she can't be blamed for that."

The mayor lovingly touched little Kailin, who bit her lip and kept her eyes open to prevent herself from crying.

"This child's mother was kidnapped by pirates a few days ago, and her father was also injured, that's why she hates pirates so much."

Mayor Mare sighed.

"Can't you get it back if you take it away? Isn't there a navy around here? ”

Ace is a gentle person at heart, and he is an orphan himself, so he cares about this matter very much.

"Because there are a lot of people who have been caught, the navy also attaches great importance to it, and after knowing the situation, it asked for support from the higher authorities to specifically clean up the pirates, although the pirate group was defeated, and those pirates were also caught and escaped, but the people were not rescued.

They were all sold as slaves, supposedly to some underground force in the East China Sea, and the navy didn't find out any clues, only knowing that the agent who bought the slaves was called Pocket. ”

The mayor said.

"Where did he buy it, this can always be asked from the mouths of captured pirates, right?"

Ace then asked.

"They all trade by ship, and there is never a fixed place, so the navy is hard to find."

Mayor Marew was a little surprised, Mr. Ace was not like a pirate at all, so gentle and enthusiastic.

"Damn, if you know the place, you can go and save people!"

Hearing this, Xiao Kailin's eyes suddenly released a little light, but it dimmed in an instant, yes, people who know the location are willing to save people, and they don't know how to save the location.

"Forget it, let's not talk about it, in order to thank you for saving the town, please let us entertain you and invite you to the fireworks display in three days!"

It would have been a joyous event, but the rest of the people present were obviously not in high spirits, and although no one here would claim to be a good person, it would be equally sad to see a little girl lose her mother.

"Forget about the fireworks display, but please send us some fireworks from the town, and some bigger ones, and in return, maybe I can help you rescue the captive residents.

As long as they are still in the East China Sea. ”

Bart said with a smile, it's not that he has no kindness and nowhere to send it, it's just that for him, it's just a matter of running a little more, and it's not a big deal.

"Really? Thank you, Mr. Swordsman. ”

Little Kailin jumped up and hugged Bart's thigh, her eyes were full of hope, the strongest bounty hunter in the East China Sea said that he had a way, and there must be a way.

"Do you know where the inhabitants are?"

Ace was surprised.

"I don't know, but I can find out, after all, there are not many places in the underground world to sell stolen goods, and slaves have to be sold, and even if they are traded by boat, the distance will not be too far, just check what underground world gathering places are nearby.

It's hard for the average person to find, but I'm a bounty hunter and know a little bit about it. ”

"Then get rid of it, please be sure to rescue the residents, this is the request of our whole town, as a report, no matter how much you want in honorarium, we will do our best to make it up!"

The mayor said solemnly.

"Yes, Bart, you're a great guy, and I'm trying to get you on board more and more."

Ace laughed and patted Bart on the shoulder, feeling that he was very reliable.

......

Bart and Ace eventually decide to go on the road together, and both have the idea of helping little Kailin, and in return, Bart and Ace get a lot of fireworks.

Naturally, the money was not taken, Bart was not short for the time being, and Ace was short of money, but he refused to take a penny from the town.

Time was pressing, and the two hurried on their way with a thousand thanks from the residents.

But before leaving, Bart took out his phone bug and made a call.

"Brubru, Brubru."

In a hidden office in Alabastan, Klockdahl was awakened while resting.

"What's the matter with me?"

A low, cold voice sounded, and he was still as unkind as ever.

"Help me find out the person, it's a slave trade agent in the underground world of the East China Sea, named Pocket, find out where he is, which force he belongs to."

"Don't forget I'm not your subordinate yet."

Klockdahl said coldly, with some anger in his words.

"Soon it will be."

Bart said with a smile.

Klockdahl was silent for a moment, "I'll let you know if I find out." ”

"It's pretty much the same, fortunately Klockdahl left his contact information before leaving, otherwise this matter would be really troublesome, it's really worry-free to have such a subordinate."

Bart sighed.

......

In an underground store somewhere in the East China Sea, Bart and Ace infiltrate with makeup.

In the backstage warehouse of the underground store, Bart and Ace and others are eye-opening.

Muskets, elixirs, jewelry, medicines, slaves, everything is available here, only what you can't think of, there is nothing that you dare not sell here, according to the news that Bart and others got, there are even devil fruits for sale here.

However, it is very rare that even if there is a Devil Fruit, it will only stay here for a while, and then be sent to the New World to sell it for a large price, and few people here can afford to buy Devil Fruits that cost hundreds of millions of dollars.

Now Bart and the others are in the slave quarter, preparing to find people based on the photographic portraits provided by the residents.

"Yo, hello."

Ace appeared in the slave quarters openly, attracting the attention of all the guards, and before they could shout, Ace's eyes widened, and an invisible deterrent force swept the audience, and all the guards were put down in an instant.

The domineering of the overlord color is really eye-catching.

Bart looked enviously at Ace with a breezy face, when will he be able to awaken a bully domineering, you must know that Ace awakened at the age of ten, and he is worthy of being a descendant of One Piece.
