His smeared flaming red lips parted, revealing an unintelligible smile.

Just recently, Shiliu of [Rain], one of the captains of the subordinate fleet, who claimed to have joined the Straw Hat Pirates, found his trace on this island.

Originally, Lafayette thought that the other party was going to clean up the remnants of the Blackbeard Pirates.

After all, it was their group who defeated the captain of the Straw Hat Pirates, the older brother of [Straw Hat Boy] Luffy, and handed it over to the Navy, triggering this epic battle of 833.

It can be said that there is a deep hatred between the two parties.

Lafayette had already made preparations after seeing Shiliu.

But what he didn't expect was that Shiliu didn't do anything to him, but instead said something that surprised him.

"Follow us~"

But after Blackbeard was killed, he was once again valued and invited.

"Can I ask why?"

Lafayette twirled his cane in his hand, "After all, the two sides who were once enemies are now inviting me, who are enemies..."

"It's hard not to let people have too many associations."

He was very straightforward there, and asked the most puzzled part in his mind.

"Captain Link asked me to come to you."

Shiliu looked up at him and said slowly, "He said that you are a very good person, courageous and strategic, and also good at hypnosis and sailing."

"It's a rare and powerful character."

Captain Link? [Prop Master] Link...

The figure of the man appeared in his mind, and a glimmer of light flashed in Lafayette's eyes.

While Link valued Lafayette, the latter also had a deep impression on him.

After all, that one after another, the props with magical effects are really hard to forget.

"He values ​​me..."

The dance steps under Lafayette's feet gradually stopped, and many thoughts flashed in his mind.

"Captain Link means that he wants to create a sharp knife for the Straw Hat Pirates..."

Shiliu didn't mind either, and he told Lafayette these thoughts without reservation.

If Lafayette is willing to join, that would be great, but everyone is happy.

But if you refuse to join, the department/group: 9\'8\"0, \'2,0\"5:8\'5,6 must be absolutely nothing, just kill it.

Then naturally, these words will not flow out.

"A knife..."

Lafayette's eyes flickered slightly.

~~~~~~~~~

[Thanks to the 'Call Me Monster' brother for another reward, many times, I can't thank you enough! ].

431 This is the effect of the prop! Convinced, willing to work for it! Endless danger!

From Shiliu's words, Lafayette sensed the ambition possessed by that [Prop Master].

If you really just want pure adventure and travel, there is no such arrangement at all.

It seems that the man's plan is not limited to just taking risks.

Whoa, that's interesting...

Lafayette's mouth raised again.

"So, what's your answer?"

Shiliu continued to ask without changing his face.

"Can I ask, what exactly do I need to do and what can I get if I join?"

Lafayette finally asked tentatively.

"There are no specific things that need to be done at the moment~"

Shiliu slowly exhaled a ring of smoke.

"Wait, if Captain Link needs us, then I'll be busy."

"And all you can get is what you want on the Blackbeard ship."

Shiliu looked at Lafayette, and there was a glimmer of light in his eyes.

"The desire to reach the top, and the ability of the devil fruit!"

The captain chooses the crew, and the crew chooses the captain.

Lafayette was willing to accept Blackbeard's invitation. On the one hand, he naturally valued Blackbeard's possibility of reaching the top.

On the other hand, of course, because of the promise of Blackbeard, it can help people obtain the ability of Devil Fruit.

Of course, since Lafayette is already a certain type of flight-type capable person who can grow wings, for him, he may value the former more.

"Climb to the top..."

Lafayette's body froze slightly.

It is undeniable that the word [topping] has a different attraction for all ambitious men.

And while Lafayette was there in contemplation.

"Om~"

Shiliu glanced at a certain place, and a gleaming white halo suddenly appeared on the thunderstorm in his hand.

"Blood Crack Air Shock!"

He casually slashed the knife towards that place.

Immediately, a slash with an extremely strong vibration force suddenly erupted!

boom!

The boundless destructive power exploded in an instant, instantly obliterating the crowd on this island hidden in that place.

"Are you trying to inform the Navy again?"

There was disdain in Shiliu's eyes.

He had heard of this island.

It is said that it was Fisher Tiger, the hero of the murlocs and the thorn in the eyes of the world government, who sent a human girl who was once a slave of the Draco people back to her hometown.

As a result, he was betrayed by the humans here and informed the navy of Tiger's situation, thus ruining the life of the murloc hero.

This is one of the reasons why Tiger would rather die than accept human blood at the last moment.

"that is…"

Lafayette's eyes narrowed slightly, "Whitebeard's Devil Fruit ability!"

As Whitebeard's signature ability, the halo of the shocking fruit makes everyone deeply remember!

"The ability to give anyone the power you want..."

Shiliu's mouth also showed a cold smile, "Even if you have the ability of the Lord, you can still get it."

"This is the effect of the prop!"

Can give people a variety of Devil Fruit abilities...

At this moment, Lafayette's heart began to beat faster.

Before following Blackbeard, it is precisely because he has a method that allows people to obtain the ability of Devil Fruit.

And now, compared to his method, the props that can achieve this level, in terms of effect, do not know how many times stronger!

Lafayette deeply understands what this means.

Perhaps, the future that I couldn't see in Blackbeard can be seen in the Straw Hat Pirates?

and…

He glanced at the poised thunderstorm.

If you say "no" in your mouth, then the attack just now is very likely to fall on you in the next second.

So~~~

"I would like to work for it!"

Lafayette took a final kick, and chuckled lightly with the cane in both hands.

For his current remnant party who disbanded the failed pirate group, what else is there to be picky about being able to join such a team again? !

In this way, the navigator of the original Blackbeard Pirates, who played an important role in the rise of Blackbeard in the original version, joined Shiliu's fleet.

It is also official, becoming a member of the Straw Hat Pirates Grand Fleet! !

"Very good~!"

A hint of admiration flashed in Shiliu's eyes.

He was very satisfied with Lafayette's current affairs.

"Hohoho, I also know the whereabouts of [Supersonic] Van Oka, [Champion] Gizas Badgers, [Death] Poison Q and others."

"It can also be used as the most suitable person to re-form into a new pirate team."

Just after recognizing the new owner, Lafayette was there thinking about the composition of their fleet for Shiliu.

There is no doubt that the team of the original Blackbeard Pirates is extremely suitable, and Lafayette also feels that those people also have sufficient qualifications.

"Then do as you say~"

With the first addition of a strategist, Navigator, Shiliu's next path will undoubtedly be a lot easier.

And on his side, while in full swing with a new career.

Somewhere in the new world.

Goooooooo~

The surface of the sea was constantly surging, and more and more bubbles emerged from the bottom of the sea.

Until two giant bubble membranes rise up from the depths of the sea.

until~~~

Whoa!

The sound of the object breaking through the sea sounded, and two ships surfaced one after another.

"Out!"

Luffy's cheerful voice resounded throughout the sea.

"Finally arrived, the new world!!"

Luffy, who was sitting in the special seat, looked around at the surrounding sea with his eyes shining.

As the Merry surfaced, the bubble film on the surface disappeared, which also broadened everyone's vision.

"Is this the new world?!"

Little Chopper looked at the dark sea around him.

"Why is it so dark here? Is it night?!"

"No~"

Usopp looked at the dark and light incongruous areas on the sea, with large black and small white areas, and raised his head involuntarily.

"Seems to be…"

He looked at the white ice cubes that fell from the sky and grew larger and larger from his ship, and couldn't help shouting:
