Pirates: Who is the real sun god?

"Can their loyalty be guaranteed?"

After thinking for a moment, Barrett spoke.

Once bitten by a snake, one will be afraid of ropes for ten years. He still remembers the last betrayal clearly.

"Boss, there shouldn't be any problem with the loyalty of this group of people. We used the method you gave us on the island to instill in them the idea that they are only loyal to you." Ares responded.

"Hibbert, go and bring the person up here, I'll take a look."

Barrett did not agree immediately. Although he had Johnson and others receive ideological education after the last incident, human hearts are unpredictable. He could not guarantee whether these people had listened to him or were pretending to listen.

I decided to listen to people's real opinions before drawing any conclusions.

"Okay, boss, I'll bring them over right away." Hibbert nodded and strode out of the palace.

A few minutes later, Hibbert and 12 people walked into the palace.

Barrett turned around and saw that among the 12 people, there were 11 teenagers and 1 girl. They all looked young and had childish faces.

"Boss, the person has been brought here."

Hibbert brought his men to the hall and saluted Barrett.

"grown ups--"

Upon seeing this, the 12 people immediately followed suit and saluted.

"You guys take a seat first."

Barrett nodded.

"Thank you, sir." The 12 people bowed and sat down.

"Just now they said that you 12 people have performed well and they want me to help you remove the shackles. But after removing the shackles, you will become trainee crew members on my ship. I want to ask if you are willing to do so?"

As Barrett spoke, he secretly released his Observation Haki to investigate.

He did this on purpose. His purpose was to stir up the emotions of the 12 people. Through the ups and downs of emotions, he could better confirm whether the 12 people were loyal.

"Yes, sir, we are willing." The 12 people stood up excitedly and bowed.

"Once I remove the shackles, I will find a chance to get out and leave."

"It's not bad to follow such a strong man."

"I don't want to, just wait for me..."

"It seems like a good idea to follow him."

"..."

At the same time, the thoughts of the 12 people at this moment all reached Barrett's ears.

He could hear the thoughts of the 12 people very clearly, and it was exactly as he thought. There were traitors among them, and more than one.

"Johnson, Long Che, he, he, he... drag him out and kill him."

Barrett's lips curled up coldly and he pointed at six people in a row.

Everyone was stunned when they heard this, not understanding why Barrett suddenly killed someone.

"Sir, spare my life."

The person who was called out was confused and terrified. He fell to his knees on the ground and begged for mercy.

"Okay boss."

However, Johnson and Shimotsuki Ryuche did not give them any chance. They each carried three people and walked out of the hall.

Although they didn't understand why Barrett suddenly took action, they would resolutely carry out Barrett's orders, even if they were wrong.

"Barrett, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have asked you to remove their shackles. Could you please not kill them?"

Seeing the man being dragged out, Delia came to her senses and looked at Barrett pitifully with red eyes.

The others also looked at Barrett with confusion and worry, thinking that Barrett was dissatisfied with their work and wanted to use this to warn them.

ka ka ka-

Barrett smiled without saying anything, took out the key, and personally untied the remaining six people.

The expressions of the remaining six people changed instantly, from fear to confusion.

"Okay, from now on, the six of you are no longer slaves, but members of my forces. You are eligible to restore your real names. State your names." Looking at the six people, Barrett chuckled.

This operation not only stunned the six people who had already unlocked the slave shackles, but also Delia and others, who were very puzzled by Barrett's mysterious operation.

"Barrett, you..."

As soon as Delia started to speak, Barrett interrupted with a smile, "We'll talk about it later. Now is their time."

Barrett raised his finger and pointed at the only girl among the six people. "Start with you. Tell me your name."

"Sir, my name is Annie." The girl reacted quickly. When she saw Barrett pointing at her, she immediately bowed.

"It's a nice name, but remember, from now on, you are no longer a slave, but a person under my command. Call me boss from now on." Barrett said with a smile.

"Yes, Boss." Annie was very excited and her eyes turned red instantly.

"You too, call me Boss from now on. Now tell me your names."

Barrett smiled and turned to look at the remaining five teenagers.

"Boss, my name is Ike."

"Boss, my name is Ruby."

"Boss, my name is Kuit."

"Boss, my name is Levi."

"Boss, my name is Sachs."

The five people shouted their names excitedly, tears streaming down their faces.

"I remember your names." Barrett said seriously, "Now, I'll give you your first task. Go out now and divide the people outside into six teams, and you will be the captains.

Anne will lead all the women outside, and the rest will be divided equally among the five of you, Sachs. After the integration is completed, stay where you are, and I will assign you new tasks later."

"Yes, boss."

The six people responded loudly and excitedly.

"Go!" Barrett waved his hand and said, "Integrate the team. It depends on your methods. You are allowed to kill people, but I will not care if you are killed. This is your mission and a test. After you complete it, each of you can choose one of the six styles."

"Boss, we get it."

A hint of coldness and excitement flashed in the eyes of the six people, and they walked out of the palace with their heads held high.

At the same time, Shimotsuki Ryuche and Johnson also walked in.

"Boss, those people have been dealt with."

As soon as Johnson came in, he immediately reported to Barrett.

Well--

Shimotsuki Ryuche nodded in agreement.

"You guys sit down first."

Barrett clasped his hands, then looked at everyone with a smile and said, "Are you curious about why I killed those six people just now?"

Everyone nodded, full of curiosity, because until now, they still didn't understand why Barrett wanted to kill those six people.

"Because I can read minds." Barrett looked at everyone with a smile.

Hearing this, everyone was stunned and didn't react for a while.

"Barrett, is this one of the branches of the Observation Haki you mentioned?" After a moment, Delia was the first to react and spoke tentatively.

Everyone was stunned again, because this ability was mentioned when Barrett was telling them about domineering.

"That's right." Barrett explained with a smile, "My Observation Haki, when I break through, the derived ability is to sense emotions. Just now, through perception, I knew that the six people had impure thoughts, so I let Johnson kill them."

Upon hearing this, everyone suddenly realized and reacted quickly. Barrett's Observation Haki should have broken through long ago. They seemed to have seen something similar a year ago, and they became more interested in Observation Haki.

At first, when they heard that the Observation Haki could derive new abilities, they were a little confused, but now that they saw it with their own eyes, they had to believe it.

"Barrett, tell us about Observation Haki!" Delia looked at Barrett with great interest, without any of the pitiful look she had just shown.

Barrett smiled and said, "Observation Haki is just like what I told you at the beginning. As long as you practice hard and reach the top level, you will be able to awaken the derived abilities.

But if you want to break through, it depends on your own talent. It is possible that you will never break through and stay at the intermediate or advanced level, or you may break through in the next moment, and the direction of each person's breakthrough is also very different."

At this point, Barrett paused and said earnestly, "Instead of being obsessed with the sight and hearing color, I suggest that you practice the armament color.

Armament Haki is different from Observation Haki. Breakthrough in Observation Haki requires opportunity and luck, while Armament Haki depends entirely on hard work. As long as you keep exercising and strengthen your physique, you can enhance it.

Once the Armament Haki breaks through to the fourth stage, combined with his own physical skills, even if he is not as strong as the admiral, he will be able to fight the admiral for several days without being defeated. "

Everyone nodded thoughtfully.

"What about Barrett, where is his devil fruit!" After hesitating for a moment, Delia looked at Barrett. She did not have good physical talent, and it was very difficult for her to cultivate her Armament Haki to the peak.

And as a natural-type devil fruit user, he naturally wants to know more about devil fruits.

Upon hearing this, everyone, regardless of whether they had eaten the devil fruit or not, turned their eyes to Barrett.

Barrett thought for a moment and said, "In fact, the composition of strength can be divided into two types, one is domineering aura, and the other is devil fruit.

I have told you before about domineering attitude. You can never lose it because it is the root of everything.

Now, let's talk about Devil Fruits."
