"Hohoho, are you leaving?"

Lafitte still had the same image as before. After being recalled by Ross, he held the edge of his hat with a smile and nodded slightly.

For him, the seven months on the empty island can be said to be very boring, and there was no trace of the Devil Fruit that Ross wanted him to search for.

certainly.

The main purpose of coming to Sky Island was to avoid the extremely dangerous situation that might be created by the furious government and navy, so even though Lafitte was bored, he understood the truth.

"Without sailing for seven months, the level of sailing should not have declined, right?"

Ross smiled lightly at Lafitte.

Lafitte's strength has also improved a little in the past seven months. Even though he is still no match for the lieutenant general of the headquarters, he can still cope with the general branch lieutenant general for a while.

As for Robin, her current strength is probably even stronger than what she remembered after setting foot in the new world. Even if she is not as good as Lafitte, she is still capable of fighting against ordinary major generals.

"Hoo ho ho... the captain will see it soon."

Lafitte held his cane and opened his arms slightly, showing a smile.

"Give me an order to let the Bika tribe continue to search for devil fruits. If they find one, they will immediately hand over the fruit to the chief for safekeeping." Ross gave the order.

Bika has been managed submissively by him and Lafitte for the past seven months, especially the chief and many priests, who have all been brainwashed by Lafitte through a wave of deep hypnosis.

Even if the Thunder Fruit appears, as long as it falls into the hands of these priests and chiefs, they will immediately hide it in fear and wait for his return.

"OK."

Lafitte made an aristocratic gesture, turned around and walked outside.

After Ross thought about it carefully and made sure that nothing was missing, he and Robin walked towards the edge of the island. They soon arrived at the dock and boarded the Ghost again.

There were a few sailors on the ship. Rhodes selected three Sky Islanders from Bika to board the ship. One man and two women. The man was strong and powerful, second only to the chief and priest of Bika. One of the two women was an outstanding craftsman. The other person was the chef and one of the seventeen-year-old candidates to serve as a priest. Like an elf, Ross felt that serving the priest was too wasteful, so she changed her fate.

Although Robin is very capable, it is good to have someone to share the burden for her.

On the ship today, Ross's authority is unshakable, followed by Lafitte and Robin. Both of them are officers on the ship, and the others have the same status.

soon.

After giving Ross's order, Lafitte returned to the Ghost Shadow.

"Next stop, Beihai."

After Lafitte returned, Rhodes calmly narrated: "It's time to have a ship's doctor on the ship."

Rhodes had been considering the candidate for the ship's doctor for a long time, hesitating between Poison Q, the future Blackbeard Pirates, and Trafalgar Law, the death surgeon.

Because Luo was still too young before, Rhodes had been searching for information about the poisonous Q, but could not find it. He finally decided to change the candidate and go to the North Sea to look for Trafalgar Law.

Robbie is seven years older than Luffy. He should be around fifteen years old this year, which is exactly the age when he is about to break away from immaturity and cannot stand alone. It is the most suitable time to conquer him.

"The location has been decided. It seems that the captain has already chosen someone."

A smile appeared on Lafitte's face.

If there is a ship's doctor on the ship, there is no need to worry about encountering a strong enemy, being severely injured and unable to be treated and eventually dying. Minor injuries and illnesses during daily sailing are also covered.

Of course, more importantly, Rhodes has extremely high vision, and the people who can be selected by Rhodes are probably reassuring in terms of strength.

"Let's go."

After Ross nodded, he raised his foot and stepped lightly. As the Ghost Shadow roared and trembled, the sea clouds below silently split to both sides, and a huge crack appeared across the sea that was hundreds of meters long.

The Ghost Shadow was just in the crack, falling suddenly, and finally disappeared.

A few days later.

On a ship cruising on the sea with the flag of the World Government flying, a man wearing a top hat and a man standing on his shoulder was holding a telephone bug to connect to the other side.

He is under the command of the World Government and is known as the strongest person in CP9 for 800 years, Rob Luqi.

More than half a year ago, the World Government's mission to secretly assassinate and execute Ghost-Hand Ross and secretly arrest Nico Robin, the son of the devil, was given to him.

"Seven months... it finally appeared, but why did it appear in Beihai..."

Lu Qi frowned slightly as he listened to the information reported from the other side of the phone, showing a hint of contemplation.

"Did that damn Ghost Hand Pirates finally show up?!"

Spandam, who was standing next to him, listened to the conversation between Lu Qi and the other end of the phone, with a hint of annoyance in his eyes.

The tasks assigned by the government will not be completed directly because the Ghost Hand Pirates disappeared, but will always be on CP9's head.

As the current commander of CP9, he was delayed by a task for more than half a year and could not get any credit. He was extremely annoyed with the Ghost Hand Pirates. In the past, thanks to the work efficiency of Lu Qi and others, he could get credit all at once. This is why his father specially transferred his authority and sent him to CP9 as the commander.

As long as he stays in CP9 for ten or eight years, it will be a matter of course for him to be promoted to a high-level position within the government. At that time, he will be able to overlook the entire sea from a high place.

“…”

Lucci hated Spandam as a commander far more than the pirates he defeated. However, because he was a commander and was raised to obey orders since childhood, he could only suppress his hatred for Spandam. disgust.

He hung up the phone, turned to look at Spandam, and said: "The Ghost Hand Pirates appeared in the North Sea. I think we can go to the North Sea now, what do you think?"

Spandam hesitated for a moment, then finally nodded through gritted teeth.

Although he didn't want to run that far, the task issued by the World Government and required to be completed quickly has been delayed for half a year. Now the Ghost Hand Pirates have appeared. If the government finds out that he has done nothing, I'm afraid they will have to issue a condemnation order. Came down.

"Let the naval fleet in the North Sea prepare for support... No, let the branch base on the Grand Route directly send warships to the North Sea together."

Spandam still knew clearly that Ghost-Hand Rhodes had destroyed the elite of the Navy branch and the King of the Seven Arms, Crocodile. Although he trusted the strength of Lu Qi and others, for him who was greedy for life and afraid of death, Of course, the more secure the better.

Lu Qi shook his head imperceptibly, his eyes full of boredom, but Spandam was the commander of CP9, and the decision he made was the decision of CP9.

Unable to vent his frustration on Spandam, Lu Qi's emotions quickly shifted to the target, which was the culprit that caused them to wander around on the sea for more than half a year...

"There are still four months to go before the one-year mission expires. Don't let us disappear inexplicably again... The Ghost Hand Pirates."
