Pirate Catcher in the Rye

buinos,

Five days later.

"Crash!"

Hawkins sat on the top of the mountain, looking down at the town below, and divined again and again.

But no matter how he divined, the road ahead was too smooth, with almost no twists and turns.

Obviously, this is simply impossible. Regardless of strength or power, the current Hawkins Pirates do not have the qualifications yet!

"Boss Hawkins?"

Everyone looked at Hawkins nervously. Hawkins would only use divination when something big was about to happen.

and,

The longer the time passes, the greater the impact of the divination events, but this is the first time in such a long time like today.

Cards kept flying in Hawkins' hands, making it dizzying.

Eventually, Hawkins drew a card.

"Oh, is it a devil this time?"

Hawkins looked at the cards in his hand. The contents of the cards were:

A demon stands on the altar, with a pair of bat-like wings behind his back, a goat's head, hands and feet like bird's claws.

There is a chain on the altar, chaining two imps, a man and a woman, just like Adam and Eve were driven out of the Garden of Eden.

The meaning of this card is also worth pondering. It represents——

Freedom, money, fame!

The body and mind are bound, hiding the malice, irresistible temptation, and ulterior secrets behind them.

And it is the fate of this trip to the new world that Hawkins divines!

"Freedom and the devil behind me, it seems that I have begun to enter the game and entered the eyes of those who are interested."

"Money and fame should refer to my goals and ambitions in going to the new world, but... these things will eventually constrain me!"

"In other words, as long as I continue to move towards the Grand Route, will I fall into the 'devil's' trap?"

"It's really interesting..."

Snapped!

Hawkins took a deep breath and closed the cards with an indifferent expression.

He knew the meaning and risks of the existence of the new world a long time ago!

I thought that if I actively participated, I could take the lead, but now it seems that I have taken it for granted.

As long as he enters the new world, whether he wants it or not, even if it is just for self-preservation, he will become a pawn in the hands of someone with good intentions.

Even if he doesn't want to cause trouble, he will unconsciously get involved in this huge whirlpool for the sake of territory and power.

Coupled with the deliberate guidance of the chess player, trouble will keep coming!

"no need to worry."

Looking at the confusion on everyone's faces, Hawkins waved his hand: "At least, before entering the new world, we have a smooth road ahead."

The results of his previous divination were not wrong. The road ahead was indeed quite smooth. Unfortunately, those were just the surface.

It was not until the last time that he divined something deeper!

"Before entering the new world? In other words, there will be a lot of trouble, or danger, after arriving in the new world!"

Brent keenly grasped the key words in Hawkins' words.

However, he still couldn't figure out where the danger came from. With their strength, even if the Four Emperors came in person, they should have no problem escaping.

The most important thing is that their plan is to select a suitable non-franchising country, which does not conflict with the interests of the Yonko!

Others also looked confused. Of course, they didn't take it to heart. They were very confident in their own strength.

Ah!

At this moment, I saw a pirate ship parked next to the war house at the port in the distance.

"Tsk, tsk, Cao Cao will be here soon, isn't he here -"

"Devil's chains!"

Hawkins smiled softly.

The divination chain on the card seems to be only one, but because of the ring in the middle, it actually represents two chains.

One is intangible and the other is tangible!

The intangible ones are naturally money and fame, while the tangible ones are the people he will meet next.

"Are you an undercover agent from the Navy? Such a powerful undercover agent really looks up to me!"

Based on Hawkins' knowledge and perception, the opponent's strength is even stronger than that of their pirate group's second-in-command, DeEnt.

The Navy undercovered Drake in the Beasts Pirates, and attacked Aokiji in the Blackbeard Pirates. The BIGMOM Pirates are all her children, and the minister's position cannot be inserted at all.

The remaining red-haired Shanks has a close relationship with the World Government, and may even be one of his own, so there is no need for arrangements.

Newcomer without bounty? ! !

He didn't know this person at all. He must have spotted their urgent need to recruit strong men and made a temporary arrangement on the grounds that he was a newcomer who just went to sea!

this kind of treatment,

It is the only one among supernovas!

If all goes well, this man will replace Deent and become the second in command of the Hawkins Pirates as they march into the new world.

If Hawkins dies unfortunately, he can even inherit everything from Hawkins and become the new captain of the Hawkins Pirates!

"Navy undercover? Aren't those people pirates? Besides, Boss Hawkins, how do you know he is an undercover?"

"Idiot, the moment he joined us, he naturally became an undercover agent!"

"join us?!!"

As we all know, Hawkins never lies except when writing in his diary, which means that the other party is coming for them.

and,

Boss Hawkins just made a divination, so... the probability that the other party wants to join the Hawkins Pirates is [-]%!

Ok?

"Hey, hey, what are you bastards looking at me for? It's none of my business." Looking at the unkind looks around him, Isiah couldn't help but curse.

Ha ha!

Ignoring Isiah's excuse, everyone surrounded him in tacit agreement.

Since there was that example in the distance, Isiah naturally became the object of suspicion. After all, Isiah's defection was too simple at that time.

"I…"

Isiah felt a little tight in his chest. At this moment, he wished he was really a navy undercover.

"Don't have any doubts, Isiah is already our partner."

"Furthermore, it was only after the Atria Kingdom incident that we really entered the navy's sight."

"The so-called Overlord of the North Sea actually doesn't have much gold content. It's just something Doflamingo throws away!"

Hawkins shook his head, speechless.

Sending Isiah undercover will not have much effect at all. His strength is indeed quite good in the first half of the Grand Line.

But the potential is limited. After arriving in the new world, there is a high probability that it will be marginalized!

"Hey, that's true." Deent glanced at Isiah disdainfully.

No matter how short of people the Navy is, it should find a decent undercover agent. As for Isiah, forget it!

"In that case."

Brent put his hand on the saber at his waist: "Do you want to stay...or kill me?"

"You? That guy is very strong, you are no match for him!" Hawkins said bluntly.

He completely ignored Brent's feelings, which made Brent blush and feel as uncomfortable as eating a fly.

It's not like Hawkins hasn't considered leaving the other party to deliver false information.

unfortunately,

Most of the cadres of their pirate group are single-minded and have a lot of nerves. They can easily be taken advantage of by the other party, and they are more likely to be self-defeating!

"Hahahaha, how about I take action myself, Boss Hawkins!"

Baker smiled excitedly. The stronger the enemy, the happier he was.

"It's almost there!"

Still, Hawkins shook his head.

"what about me?"

"Sure enough, I still have to take action."

"Shut up, everyone, this guy is my prey!"

...

Ignoring their requests, Hawkins denied them all.

"Hi~"

No way?

Deent took a breath. Hawkins had denied it just now.

He is still very confident in his own strength, especially after mastering the two-color domineering force, he has almost no opponents in the first half of the Grand Route!

At this time, even if Hawkins didn't say anything, everyone had already realized something.

Here comes a big fish! ! !
