Marco and the others, after a day, circled around Sentin Island, arrived at the port of Rapeseed Flower City, and successfully joined Ian and Ace. m. The mobile phone saves the most traffic and has no advertisements.
The six of them, Ian and Ace, brought the Blackbeard Pirates bundled into rice dumplings to the port to meet Marco and the others.
After receiving news from Ace that Tiki had been successfully captured, the Whitebeard Pirates dispatched four captains to respond this time.
They are Marco, the captain of the first team, Diamond Joz, the captain of the third team, Foil Bista, the captain of the fifth team, and Namuir the Murloc, the captain of the eighth team.
If you add Ace, the captain of the second team, then the people responsible for escorting the Blackbeard Pirates this time will be a total of five captain-level figures.
This was also explained by Ian, which is why the Whitebeard Pirates took this escort mission so seriously.
In fact, at this moment, even if Titch defected after killing Sage, the Whitebeard Pirates hadn't realized the danger of Titch yet. In the eyes of many people, Titch was a brash guy with great strength. But the strength is not much outstanding. This is mainly because Tiqi really behaved harmlessly to humans and animals during his stay in the Whitebeard Pirates.
If Ian deliberately asks, it is estimated that Marco will come at most...
If so, when seeing Ian, after greeting Ian, Vista and Ian complained a little: "Ian, I'm on vacation! Just because of your words, dad gave me too. The dispatch is here, you have to treat me to a drink!"
Ian smiled at them and said, "It's okay to drink, but I want to remind you that I'm not alarmist when I ask you to come together, do you know? Ace and I almost fell into Tiqi's hands , when you escort him, you must also be extremely careful!"
"Is...really?" Marco and the others couldn't help being taken aback when they heard this, and they looked at Tiqi with more caution again.
Walking in front of Tiqi, Marco squatted down, looked at Tiqi face to face, gritted his teeth and said: "Tiki, do you know that Dad is very sad for you!"
However, Tiqi didn't say a word at the moment, just looking at Marco so directly.
Marco saw such a hint of madness from Tiqi's seriousness, and he couldn't help but shiver. He subconsciously got up and took a step back, feeling that the Tiqi in front of him was so strange, and he didn't have the one in his original impression. Teach's shadow is gone.
he's changed! Marco realized this at the first time, but what made him change, Marco had no idea about it.
Turning his head, Marco asked Ian, "Ian, do you want to go back with us? Dad really wants to see you..."
Ian thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "No, I have something else to do. You and Ace will be escorting me. As long as you are careful, there should be no accidents on the road, so I won't go with you."
Ian did have something to do, because just two days before he was waiting for Marco and the others to come, Ian suddenly received a phone call from Fujitora, and he told Ian that Admiral Aokiji had come to his door. coming.
And Qingzhi came to the door, not for anything else, but for the affairs of the pacifists.
Since only Aokiji knows that Ian's Dragon Hunter Pirates base is now on an empty island, the navy sent Aokiji to be a liaison with the Dragon Hunter Pirates.
During the phone call, Fujitora told Ian that the Navy Headquarters and the World Government finally agreed to Ian's deal with the pacifists using Germa's technology information!
Originally, the pacifist was the secret weapon of the naval science force, and it was said that it was absolutely impossible for it to fall into the hands of others. However, when Ian reported the transaction terms for the pacifist with Germa's technological information, he immediately let the navy Internal divisions arose.
And this difference is mainly between the Navy Headquarters and the Naval Science Force. Of course, the Navy Headquarters is not willing, led by Marshal Warring States, to oppose this deal. However, the Navy Science Force really wants to get Germa's technology. They have been arguing with the Navy on the excuse that the pacifists need to conduct actual combat verification anyway, so whoever is handed over to verify it is the same.
As for the world government, they did not speak, but quietly watched the two departments under their command argue.
However, after arguing for a period of time, finally a person of sufficient weight stood up to speak out, and this person was the most important scientist in the Navy, Dr. Vegabank!
I don't know what the purpose is, but in Aokiji's narration, Dr. Bergabank actually made it clear that the military horse supports this transaction, and as the first scientist of the navy, everyone must pay attention to what he said, so the Warring States Period came to In the end, he finally relented and agreed to the deal this time, but he also pointed out that even if it is delivered to the pacifists, there will only be one!
In fact, the current pacifists are also in the verification stage, because the transformation of the Bartholomew Bear has not been completely completed, otherwise the Warring States Period would not be so easy to let go.
Moreover, there is a big secret in this matter, which Aokiji doesn't know, so he can't tell it.
But no matter what, after Aokiji found Fujitora, this was what he was talking about. Fujitora didn’t dare to be negligent, and hurriedly relayed it to Ian. According to the requirements of the Navy, Ian had to go to the Navy Headquarters to complete the task himself. one transaction.
So next, Ian needs to go back to the Navy headquarters, and he cannot participate in this escort.
It's not easy to tell Marco and the others about this, but Marco and the others are also reasonable, so they stopped asking. After resting for a while, they escorted the Blackbeard Pirates on the road.
Watching the fleet of the Whitebeard Pirates leave, Ian still felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't detect anything wrong.
However, he wasn't too worried about escorting Ian. He knew that with Marco and the others around, if Ace was no longer alone, there shouldn't be any problem with the escort.
Therefore, he could only shake his head and temporarily put down the doubts in his heart.
…………………
But after the fleet sailed out to sea, Tiqi, who was tied up and sitting on the deck of the ship, suddenly burst out laughing.
His smile immediately aroused the vigilance of Marko and the others. Foil Vista pulled out his double swords, pointed at Tiqi and said, "Tiqi! What kind of tricks do you want to play? Let me tell you, don't try to escape , This time Namuir came with us to prevent you from escaping, you should know what will happen if you fall into the sea as a capable person and meet murlocs in this vast sea, right?"
And the murloc Namuir also clenched his fist at the right time, declaring his presence.
However, after laughing loudly, Tiqi shook his head and said, "Don't worry, I won't run away! Where can I escape to, a man with a broken hand?"
"Then why are you laughing?" Marco asked with some doubts.
"I'm just laughing at this damn fate!" Tiqi laughed loudly again, and said, "Fate is indeed the most elusive thing..."
After Ace and the others heard this, they couldn't help but look at each other, not knowing what Tiki meant.
After laughing, Tiqi stopped making a sound, closed his eyes, and regained his composure on the boat.
When Marco and the others saw this, they had no choice but to give up.
However, Tiki, who closed his eyes, was not sleeping as Marco and the others thought at this moment, but was sorting out his own plan in his mind.
"This first step is considered a success!" Tiqi thought to himself: "It seems that Lafayette has completed his task, and the Navy has also cooperated. Sure enough, this kid Ian did not escort us. Then, it's up to me..."
As Lafayette said when he told Sengoku and Akainu, Tiki was indeed caught on purpose.
In fact, the moment Tiki saw Ian and Ace when he boarded the port of Rape Flower City, he realized that his Blackbeard Pirates might really be unable to escape this time.
The reason is simple. They just experienced a shipwreck and are in a period of depletion. Fighting Ian Ace under such circumstances is definitely not good.
However, the crew of the Blackbeard Pirates are all old, treacherous and cunning people. When they realized that the situation was not good for them, their first thought was to save themselves.
They know that Ian can fly, so if they get on the boat and go to sea immediately, they are looking for death. Ian may directly destroy their boat and let them fall into the sea to feed the sea kings, so getting on the boat and fleeing is not an option, only I can fight with Ian and the others first.
However, Tiki still delayed for a little time through the dialogue.
That is to say, during this delay, Lafayette, the navigator of the Blackbeard Pirates, had already acted.
If anyone noticed Lafayette's movements at that time, they would have found that Lafayette was constantly turning his crutch in his hand!
People who don't know why may think that this is caused by Lafayette's nervousness, but in fact this is not the case, because Lafayette is actually a master of hypnosis! And turning the crutch was his method of hypnosis!
Since it is called a master, then this kind of hypnosis is not easy to be detected. At that time, the six of them, Ian and Ace, almost all looked at Ticky, and Lafayette stood beside Ticky. Turning the crutches, Ian and the others naturally included them from the corner of their eyes!
So in fact, even Ian and Ace didn't realize that they had been hypnotized by Lafayette without knowing it!
During the process of hypnosis, Lafayette gave Ian and the others two hints in total!
The first one is: Can't kill Tiki!
And the second one is: If there are five members of the Blackbeard Pirates, one of them must be Lafayette!
