Taoist priest, who is so popular in One Piece

"If you really don't believe it, then answer me a few questions."

Hearing Bai Ye's words, Zoro's eyes were dignified: "You guy..."

"Let's analyze briefly first, what exactly is Bellumeber's purpose?"

"He asked you to take the punishment in place of Lijia and her daughter. As long as you hold out for a month, he will release you. This is the agreement you two reached."

"Let's not talk about whether Bellemere will abide by this agreement. Just talking about the underlying logic of this agreement, Zoro, you don't understand it at all."

"I just want to ask one question. Is it true that a normal person can survive a month without food or water?"

Zoro: "Stop talking, I'll just..."

"Yes, you are going to persist and succeed, but before this agreement takes effect, Bellumeber doesn't think so."

"In other words, when he proposed the one-month agreement, he had only one purpose."

At this point, no matter how stubborn Zoro was, he understood: "That guy actually wanted me to die from the beginning?"

"Congratulations on giving the correct answer, but unfortunately there is no reward."

Bai Ye clapped his hands lightly, with a smile on his face:

"By the way, guess what will happen to Lijia and her daughter after your death?"

Hearing this, Zoro's pupils suddenly contracted, and his mood instantly changed from self-blame to anger:

"That bastard, will he continue to attack them?"

"When you asked this question, you should already know the answer."

Bai Ye said, "When you choose to put down your weapon, you have lost the qualification to protect them."

"It is a very foolish decision to compromise with the enemy."

Bai Ye shook his head and spoke his true feelings.

When watching anime in his previous life, Bai Ye couldn’t understand why a second-generation rich man made Zoro compromise without even taking any hostages.

Even hoping that a person who bullies others every day can abide by the agreement is simply outrageous. It is outrageous to the extreme.

It would be fine if Zoro had no ability, but he was compromising for his life.

But he had the ability to defeat Monka, but he still chose to compromise.

This behavior is exactly the same as Oden's back then.

Thinking of this, Bai Ye suddenly shouted to Luffy who was staring at Zoro:

"Captain, if someone threatened you like this, what would you do?"

Hearing this, Luffy was stunned at first, then waved his fist passionately: "I will beat them all away!!!"

Bai Ye smiled. This was indeed Luffy’s style. When he was in doubt, he would solve the problem with one punch.

Zoro: "Hey, aren't you afraid that the other party will attack your friends afterwards?"

"Ah?"

Luffy tilted his head, scratched his nose with his fingers, and said nonchalantly: "Then beat them until they dare not do anything. Besides, will they stop if I don't beat them?"

That’s right, will you stop if you don’t hit the other person?

Recalling the daily behavior of that guy Bellemer, the answer is already obvious.

He looked at the seemingly unreliable guy standing beside him with complicated eyes. He didn't expect that this guy could see things more clearly than he did.

Zoro felt like he had acted like a fool before and he wished he could kill that bastard right now.

Thinking of this, Zoro began to miss his three swords.

The long-haired bastard was right. When I chose to put down my weapon, I had already lost the right to resist.

"It seems like you have thought it through. So, do you want to reach a new agreement with us?"

Seeing Zoro's silence, Bai Ye knew that the other party had thought it through, so he took advantage of the situation... ahem, and took advantage of the situation to propose a new option.

Zoro was silent for a long time. He raised his head and said, "You just called that guy Captain. So, you are pirates and want to take me on board?"

You reacted pretty quickly at this time!

Bai Ye shrugged, motioned for Luffy to come over, and said:

"I forgot to introduce him, his name is Luffy, and he's my captain."

Bai Ye put Lijia down and adjusted his robe: "My name is Bai Ye, I'm Luffy's partner. We formed a pirate group a few days ago, and we are currently looking for partners to go to the Grand Line together."

"You have probably guessed what the agreement is. We rescue you and you get on our ship."

"After all, my captain cares a lot about you."

Luffy: "Hahaha, that's right, Zoro, I want you to be my partner!!!"

"Is it really a pirate?" Zoro muttered to himself.

Hearing this, Bai Ye struck while the iron was hot:

"Yes, it's the pirates. After all, Mr. Zoro is now a prisoner of the navy. No one will help except us pirates."

Bai Ye directly shows his output:

"And as long as Mr. Zoro doesn't want to die, he is destined to fight the navy here. At that time, even if you don't want to, you will be regarded as a pirate bounty."

In the original work, when Zoro heard Luffy talking about his pirates, he decisively refused and said, "Do you want me to take the initiative to be a villain?"

It can be seen that Zoro was quite disgusted with the identity of a pirate at the beginning.

But at that time, Zoro still held on to the naive idea that he would be free if he could hold on for a month, and naturally would not consider becoming a pirate. But now he has understood that if no one helps him, he will definitely be killed by Bermeber.

So, he just looked at Bai Ye and Luffy, and said in a low voice:

"Well, it's no use worrying about the villains now."

"Hey, Byakuya, Luffy, I have a reason why I absolutely cannot stop here, so instead of dying here, I might as well become a pirate."

When Luffy heard this, he jumped up happily: "Great, you are willing to be my partner."

Then he turned around and patted Bai Ye's shoulder, saying excitedly: "Bai Ye, you are awesome! Why don't you be responsible for pulling people on board from now on?"

"Don't add more work to me so casually." Bai Ye resisted the urge to roll his eyes and said helplessly.

"but..."

At this moment, Sauron's voice sounded again:

"Let me be clear in advance. I have my own ambitions and I will definitely follow through with them."

He raised his head and looked at the two of them:

"I want to be the best swordsman in the world. If you prevent me from achieving this ambition, you will have to commit seppuku to atone for your sins!"

There was seriousness in Zoro's eyes. He didn't mind letting him become a pirate, but he would never forgive anyone who dared to prevent him from realizing his ambitions, even if the two people in front of him were his saviors.

"The world's best swordsman? Sounds great!"

Luffy showed a nice smile: "The Pirate King's partner should at least be like this."

Zoro looked at Luffy with some surprise, as he was smiling silly. He didn't expect that this seemingly unreliable guy actually wanted to become the Pirate King.

He turned to look at Bai Ye: "Is this why you recognized him as the captain?"

Bai Ye didn't answer, just shrugged.

Of course not, I know this guy’s identity as the Son of the Plane, and I plan to do big things with him in the future.

"Okay~ Then let me get on your ship and become a villain."

Zoro gave another reply.

Bai Ye stepped forward and patted Zoro on the shoulder, his tone very relaxed:

"Then let's get down to business."

Bai Ye held Lijia in his arms in front of Zoro and said, "I risked my life to bring you a rice ball. It would be a bit rude of you not to eat it."

"Stop talking. I will eat it. Untie the ropes on me first."

"Don't worry about the rope. The little girl is ready to feed you herself. Come on, open your mouth, ah~"

"Bai Ye you bastard!!!"

"Don't be shy~"

"I'm going to chop you to death!!!"
