On the other hand, other crew members also reacted in the same way.
Maude took back her hand, and then quietly encouraged Bucky.
"Bucky, try your best to find it. If it's you, you can definitely find the legendary treasure that is so rich that the country cannot be rivaled!"
"Um!"
Bucky nodded heavily, his blood boiling.
"If you can't find it, come back to me and take responsibility."
After Maud threw these words away with a smile, she left the deck directly.
Just as he was invisible when he arrived, he disappeared into thin air when he left.
Bucky and the others were left on the deck at a loss.
Near the pirate ship.
A group of pirates and bounty hunters looked at the Bucky Pirates' ship in amazement, their eyes involuntarily focused on the red-nosed skull flag pattern on the sail.
The conversation between Maud and Bucky just now was not secretive.
Therefore, they basically heard everything clearly.
"What is the origin of this pirate group that makes Mod value it so much!"
"A flag I have never seen before should not be famous..."
"If you weren't famous, how could Maude offer you an olive branch? You know, among the supernovas with a bounty of over 100 million this year, only Cavendish, with a bounty of over 300 million, was favored by Maude."
"Um!?"
"That is to say..."
"That's right, Mod's standard for accepting a younger brother is most likely... a reward of more than 300 million!!!"
"So, is that red nose a pirate with a bounty of over 300 million?"
"Probably!"
For a moment, this group of people, whose average level was not weaker than that of the Bucky Pirates, looked at the Bucky Pirates' flag with a strong look of fear in their eyes.
Maude had no idea that her impromptu move would create such an illusion for this group of people.
Little did he know that his casual remark just now would cause Bucky to stay in the small garden for a long time and persist in searching for John's treasure.
Until... the arrival of the Straw Hat Pirates.
Before going back to the villa, Maude used his shadow to send a voice and asked the bounty hunters who had helped him build the villa to cut some goldfish and island-eating beast meat.
Then bring the meat directly to the small villa, saving him a lot of effort.
Chapter 218 Aokiji and Fujitora
After Mod left, the bounty hunter who received the voice from the shadow did not pause for a moment, and immediately boarded the boat and approached the body of the goldfish island-eating beast floating on the sea.
Although they were able to leave this hellish place now, they still put Maud's orders first.
When others saw this, they thought that these bounty hunters were eager to leave the small garden.
It wasn't until they saw this group of bounty hunters cutting the flesh of the goldfish island-eating beast that they realized that wasn't the case.
then,
They followed suit.
Thinking that before leaving, he would have to eat a large piece of meat from the goldfish island-eating beast.
The crowd on the shore began to move.
Seeing this scene, the members of the Bucky Pirates were silent for a moment, and then followed them to eat meat in a daze.
Several days passed.
On the coastline near the entrance of the Little Garden River, there is a unique landscape - the skeleton of a goldfish island-eating beast.
The bounty hunters and pirates who had been trapped on the island for a long time were like ants, eating up all the goldfish and island beasts in just a few days.
This was probably the most delicious thing they had eaten in a while.
After eating the goldfish and island-eating beasts, they started to leave the island one after another.
Before leaving the island, everyone looked in the direction of the center of the island.
That's where Maude is.
"Bacardi Mod..."
They muttered their names silently in their hearts, thanked them silently in their hearts, and left without looking back.
Less than a week.
Nearly a thousand bounty hunters and pirates left the small garden one after another.
But a small number of people still choose to stay.
Among these people, there is naturally the Bucky Pirates who want to find John's treasure.
Regardless of their purpose of staying, what is certain is that they have classified the center of the island as a restricted area.
No matter what happens, they will never step within the visual range of the small villa in the center of the island.
time flies.
January flies by in a blink of an eye.
Jaya and Philo's research is coming to an end, and it's almost time to leave.
Cavendish was extremely happy when he heard the news.
Now, he is like a tiger chained by iron chains, eager to rush to the new world as soon as possible.
Two more days passed after that.
The team packed up and prepared to leave the small garden.
"Xiao Ka, thank you for helping me during this time."
Before boarding the ship, Philo came to Cavendish.
Cavendish looked down at the snow-haired, blue-eyed girl in front of him who only slept less than four hours a day and devoted herself to research, and shook his head slightly.
"It's just a small thing, not worth mentioning."
"It's not a small matter, you really helped me a lot."
Philo looked extremely serious, and then handed the box in his hand to Cavendish.
"In the box are perfect antibodies and antidote. I hope it can help you, but I also hope it can't help you."
"Um?"
Cavendish took the box and opened it to see that the test tubes filled with antibodies and antidote were neatly placed on the soft cloth inside the box.
After calculating the number, it matched the number of members of the Handsome Pirates, two for each person.
Such thoughtfulness made Cavendish feel that the box was heavy for a moment.
"Philo, why did you go to sea?"
Cavendish unexpectedly asked Philo such a question.
Philo was startled for a moment, and a trace of longing slowly appeared on his fair face.
"Panax, I want to develop a panacea that can cure any disease. This should be every doctor's dream."
Speaking of this, Philo smiled.
"Is it a panacea..."
Cavendish looked at Philo carefully and couldn't help but have the urge to blurt out "I'm here to help you."
But it soon came to a halt.
He turned his head and glanced at Maud, who was not far away.
With such a man who is far superior to him in every aspect, there is no chance for him to show his sincerity.
only,
If the girl in front of him could give him a strange feeling, one day she would need his help.
Then no matter where he is, he will come as soon as possible...
Cavendish did not reveal his inner thoughts, but smiled slightly.
"Xiao Ka, what about you? Why did you go to sea?"
“…”
Listening to Philo's words, Cavendish couldn't help but remain silent.
What to go to sea for.
If you really want to answer, it's just... to steal the spotlight, right
But he couldn't say such an answer no matter what.
"gone."
At this moment, Maud's words came from afar.
Invisibly, he happened to help Cavendish out of trouble.
… … …
At the port of a certain town on an island in the Great Channel.
Yixiao sat on the wooden box, lowering his head and reading the newspaper calmly.
In the center of the newspaper was Maud's photo.
The port workers who passed by looked at the sturdy man with a surprised smile.
This man, like a sculpture, sat motionless in the blazing sun for about two hours.
What I did during this period was just reading the newspaper.
"He is obviously blind, but he is so focused on reading the newspaper. He is really a strange guy."
The workers thought in their hearts.
Suddenly, there was a noise not far away.
"Why are the warships from the Navy Headquarters here?"
"That seems to be... Admiral Aokiji's ship!!"
"It's really...
The local townspeople who saw the Aoki warship suddenly felt panic.
The sudden arrival of the general would make them think that there might be a vicious criminal hiding in the town.
After guessing, many people couldn't help but look at Yixiao.
In terms of being suspicious and unfamiliar, it was this man who had been sitting like a sculpture under the blazing sun for two hours.
Facing the questioning glances from all directions, he smiled unmoved. His non-existent gaze slowly moved away from the newspaper and looked at the warship coming from afar.
Under the gaze of Yixiao and many townspeople, the warship came to the dock.
After anchoring, a long gangway was built to the shore.
A three-meter-tall figure strode down the gangway, the coat draped over his shoulders fluttering in the sea breeze.
"It's really Admiral Aokiji!"
Looking at that figure, everyone looked surprised.
Then, with wide eyes, they watched Qing Zhi step by step towards Yi Xiao who was sitting on the wooden box.
Is that blind man with weird behavior really a criminal...
Qingzhi came to Yixiao and glanced at the newspaper in Yixiao's hand.
"Ah la la, little garden? Isn't this the newspaper from more than a month ago?"
