Pirate: The Wandering Swordsman

Chapter 253

"What if I refuse?"

Cold sweat ran down Festa's forehead and cheeks.

Roy could see that Festa was moved by himself, but he had a kind of obsession with Roger and still insisted on his own ideas.

"let it go."

Roy shrugged.

Festa is simply thinking too much, so if you refuse, just refuse, what can you do?

He is not a bloodthirsty person. It was a coincidence that he met Festa today, and he wanted to communicate with Festa on a whim.

The reason to attract Festa is because he knows that Festa cannot succeed, and he kindly wants to persuade him to change his path—since Festa is not interested in this goal and does not intend to listen to him, then he It is true that he did not intend to force Festa to do so.

When Festa was hit by reality, he might regret it.

"So be it."

After Roy finished speaking, he turned and left.

"and many more!"

A deep voice that obviously did not belong to Festa resounded on the beach.

"Anything else?"

Roy narrowed his eyes, turned around and looked behind him, and suddenly appeared next to Festa, a man with an inverted triangle figure and muscular muscles.

"I want to talk to you." The man said.

"my pleasure."

Roy stared at the man for a few seconds and smiled.

This man was the one who had been lurking around and had never shown up, but he knew each other well, the one Roy was waiting for.

Douglas Barrett.

One Piece, former crew member of Gol D Roger.

This is a guy that even the crew of Rayleigh's gang of One Piece called him a "monster".

It can be seen with the naked eye that when Barrett appeared beside Festa, Festa's face turned pale quickly, as if it was difficult to bear the power Barrett inadvertently exuded.

Da da da!
Barrett slowly approached Roy.

Swish!
In an instant, the terrifying aura moved to Roy's head like the dark clouds in the sky in rainy weather.

At this moment, Roy's hair stood on end.

He felt an indescribably terrifying aura from Barrett, the air around him became distorted, and he felt a little nervous subconsciously.

Immediately, Roy dispelled the influence of Barrett's momentum, and said indifferently: "What you want to talk to me isn't about Roger, is it?"

"No, I'm very interested in what you just said."

Barrett was outspoken.

He said: "You inspired me, Roy--shooting against the Tianlongren is indeed faster than what Festa and I had planned before. Are you interested in cooperating?"

"How to cooperate?" Roy asked.

"I'll help you kill the Tianlongren, but you have to make sure that I can challenge the Demon Slaughter Order."

The corner of Barrett's lips twitched.

His body like a hill stood in front of Roy, and the huge shadow covered Roy, preventing Roy from seeing the light, but Roy didn't panic at all.

"Devil slaying order?"

After pondering for a moment, he nodded happily.

"make a deal!"

……

Roy doesn't know much about Barrett, but he knows that, just as Festa has an inexplicable obsession with Roger, Barrett also has an unimaginable obsession with the Demon Slaying Order.

This may have something to do with what happened to Barrett when he was young.

As we all know, Barrett was once Roger's crew member, and he joined the Roger Pirates because he wanted to defeat Roger.However, after the return of Ralph Drew, he learned that Roger was suffering from an incurable terminal illness, and he was hit hard. He failed to challenge Roger for the last time, so he withdrew from Roger's pirate group and became a solo traveler. .

After Roger was executed, Barrett completely lost his target and began to run wild. He was regarded as a huge threat by the navy and was hunted down by the navy with all his strength.

Finally, when he was 22 years old, the Navy launched a demon-killing order against him in order to eliminate him.

Barrett's physical strength was gradually exhausted by the demon-slaying order, and the pirates he defeated before also launched a surprise attack. He was finally defeated and imprisoned in the city of advancement.

Feeling defeated again, Barrett re-established his goal as if grasping at straws.

Just like him back then, he set his goal as Roger.

Now, in this era when Roger is dead, Barrett can only show that he surpassed Roger and became "the strongest in the world" by challenging the Demon Slaying Order that also defeated him.

Then again, the reason why this guy escaped from the city was related to the riots in the city before the top battle.

From this perspective, Roy is still one of Barrett's benefactors.

It is worth mentioning that during the more than 20 years of advancing the city, Barrett not only gave birth to the idea of ​​​​resisting the demon-killing order, but also made up his mind to become "the world's strongest Pirate King surpassing Roger", that is, to kill All the powerful people in the world including the "Four Emperors" and admirals.

For more than 20 years, he has never stopped exercising.

Although Hailoushi restrained his ability, he couldn't destroy his body.

The ability users after adapting to Hailoushi are very scary.

The effect of weakness becomes infinitely smaller on them.

Apart from being unable to use their abilities and breaking free from Hailoushi, they are almost indistinguishable from other physical masters.

You know, as early as more than 20 years ago, the teenage Barrett was already the strongest man on Roger's pirate ship except Roger, and even the "right wrist of One Piece" was at its peak at that time Raleigh, the king of the underworld, couldn't defeat Barrett, he could only draw with him.

Today, more than 20 years later, Rayleigh, the king of the underworld, is old.

However, Barrett is at his peak.

The more than 20 years of being trapped in the advancing city did not grind away his edges and corners, but completely polished him into a shining diamond.

After saying the word "deal", Roy looked at Barrett, and many thoughts flashed through his mind.

He used to be in the navy, of course he knew that inside the navy, there was a golden phone bug and a silver phone bug. The golden phone bug was used to notify the launch of the demon-slaying order, and the silver phone bug was used to receive notifications.Both are in charge of the three admirals of the navy and the admiral of the navy, and the golden phone bug can also be authorized to be used by someone.

As far as Roy knows, the people who have used the golden phone bug in this sea today, excluding the admiral and the marshal, include the father and son Spandine and Spandam.Both were former leaders of CP9.

"What are you going to do?" Barrett asked Roy.

"Let me think about it. I have an idea for now, but there are still some things I can't explain. I need to think about it carefully." Roy said.

The serious communication between the two left Festa on the side stunned, almost petrified.

What?
You two hooked up now?

Especially Barrett, didn't we talk about cooperation first?
You clearly said that you want to wipe out all the pirates in this sea with me, and help me create a new era!
Obviously it was me first, obviously I got to know you first...

Festa was wronged and depressed, like an abandoned little daughter-in-law.
