I really don't want to be a pirate

"Boy, do you know who I am?"

When the huge pirate group docked beside Ross's boat, Captain Dirk looked down at Ross with a big knife in his hand, and said.

"I don't know, who are you?" Ross asked cautiously.

To be honest, seeing such a big pirate ship now, Ross really has no idea.

Ross's small boat is not much bigger than the small boat that Luffy used when he went out to sea. In comparison, the pirate ship in front of him is like a giant.

If the captain of this pirate group is a pirate with a bounty of more than 1000 million Baileys, Ross may not be able to defeat him.

"In the East China Sea, don't you know our leader Deke? Our leader Deke is a big pirate with a bounty of 800 million. Boy, if you know the truth, you should quickly donate all the treasure to our leader. Maybe when our leader Deke is happy, he will not only be able to I'll spare your life and accept you as my younger brother."

Before Chief Dirk could speak, a younger brother spoke first, very cleverly.

Leader Dirk laughed and looked at his younger brother approvingly, intending to promote him if he had the chance.

"Eight million Baileys." Ross was relieved when he heard this. 800 million Baileys, with his strength, should be enough to cope with it.

"It turns out to be Chief Dirk. I wonder what the chief wants to do with me?" Rose asked with a smile on his face.

"Isn't this nonsense? Our boss is a famous pirate in the East China Sea. Pirates are only interested in treasures. Hand over the treasures quickly," the younger brother said first.

Dirk was more satisfied, and felt that he should cultivate this little brother well.

Ross was horrified, "Boss Dirk, I'm just a poor man. I really don't have any treasure. If I have treasure, how dare I hide it? I must have given it all long ago. How could I hide it?"

At this moment, Ross felt like he had transformed into the Shadow Emperor.

He wants the pirates in front of him to lower their guard, then kill this guy named Leader Dirk and steal the treasure

Now, for his future pension, Ross has gone all out.

Isn't it just acting?

Ross feels that he has watched a lot of movies from various countries, and acting to fool a few pirates should be no problem.

"What's that behind you?" The younger brother continued to speak on Dirk's behalf. His ability to observe words and emotions was extraordinary.

At this time, Ross already wanted a little brother like this. This little brother was simply the best among little brothers.

Dirk also nodded with satisfaction, "Kid, what are you hiding behind you?"

"Nothing, just some rubbish, absolutely no treasure," Ross confirmed.

Dirk raised his eyebrows, carrying a big knife, and jumped onto Ross's boat from the deck in an instant.

Rose was shocked and kept pushing back.

Of course, it's all pretend

He could feel that Dirk was still vigilant, but this little vigilance was gradually dissipating, and he felt that Rose really didn't seem to have any scheming.

And thinking that after all, he is a big pirate with a bounty of 800 million Baileys. The kid in front of him has almost never heard of it. Looking at it now, it doesn't seem like he is doing well, so there should be no need to worry about it.

Thinking of this, Dirk walked to the edge of Rose's boat in two steps, and when he opened the box that Rose hid, his expression changed.

The box is completely empty. There is no treasure.

"Boy, you" Dirk roared back, only to see Rose's fist.

The punch hit Dirk hard in the face, sending him directly into the sea.

On the pirate ship, the pirates who were climbing down the rope were all shocked, never expecting such an accident to happen.

However, Rose would not give these people a chance to react. He grabbed a rope, shook it vigorously, threw the pirate on the rope into the sea, grabbed the rope and boarded Dirk's pirate ship.

There were quite a few crew members on the pirate ship, and when they saw Ross board the ship, they all killed him with knives.

Facing these miscellaneous fish, Ross easily dealt with them, with almost no effort. Then he rushed out quickly, and dealt with the two pirates who were about to shoot with their guns, and threw them all into the sea.

At this moment, there was only one person left on the pirate ship besides Ross.

That very clever little brother of Dirk

"What are you going to do?" When the boy saw Ross approaching with a half-smile, he backed away cautiously, and soon retreated to the edge of the boat.

"You are very clever." Ross looked at this little brother with emotion.

"Yeah." The little brother was indeed smart. He glanced at the pirates in the sea, his eyes flickered, and he immediately begged Ross for mercy: "Sir, I have no choice but to be a pirate. I didn't want to be a pirate at first. It was forced by Dirk."

"yes"

Ross shrugged and said noncommittally: "I don't care about this, I just need a temporary navigator. Do you have any sailing experience?"

"Yes, to be honest with you, I was once the smartest child in the village. I could draw nautical charts at the age of four. Although navigation is not my specialty, in the East China Sea, there is absolutely no place that I can't reach." The younger brother immediately road.

Hearing this, Ross raised his eyebrows, feeling that what the little brother said did not seem to be a lie, so he carefully looked at the boy in front of him.

Grass green cockscomb head, with a nose ring on the nose, and eye lines under both eyes.

why so familiar

Ross looked at the young man in his early twenties in front of him, and he always felt familiar.

"Bartolomeo" Ross suddenly remembered a pirate who appeared in the original work and blurted out subconsciously.

"Sir, do you know my son?" the cock-combed young man asked in shock and disbelief.

"Your son." The corner of Rose's mouth twitched, and he finally felt where this inexplicable sense of dissonance came from.

The same cockscomb head, except for the extra eye pattern on the left eye, without the tattoo on the chest, has a slightly different appearance, almost a replica of Bartolomeo.

This is such a fucking coincidence, right?

Rose's mouth twitched wildly, he just grabbed a boat, and unexpectedly met Bartolomeo's father. Is there anything more coincidental than this?

And is this really Bartolomeo's father?

Why are their personalities so different?

Ross looked at the cockscomb-headed young man suspiciously. He looked quite similar, but his personality was very different.

After all, Bartolomeo, who appeared in the original book, appeared as a little fan of Luffy. Except for the Straw Hats, no one liked him. He has an arrogant and unrestrained personality. Loyalty.

But this guy who called himself Bartolomeo's father couldn't bear to look directly at him, he looked like a clever little ghost.

These two are really father and son

At this moment, Ross expressed doubts about the guy who called himself Bartolomeo's father.
