The Great Voyage: The Props Master on the Straw Hat Ship

"What's wrong? Is it hard to understand?!"

Cavendish, who had absolutely no hope for Bartolomeo and his gang's intelligence, saw their bewildered expressions and bluntly said:

"You yourself can't give me an explanation, nor can you provide me with the many benefits that come with obtaining this permanent pointer."

Or rather...

His face was full of disdain, making no attempt to hide his distrust of this group of unreliable people:

"Even if you want to offer me rewards and benefits, I don't think you guys are capable of truly meeting my needs."

"Therefore, delivering this [Perpetual Log Pose] to the Straw Hat Pirates is the best way for me to maximize my benefits!!"

"They will definitely be able to help me and completely fulfill my wishes and goals."

"Whether it's Luffy's status as one of the Four Emperors or Link's numerous magically powerful gadgets, aren't they both far superior to you guys?!"

Cavendish was very blunt, belittling each and every one of them.

"Well……"

Bartolomeo smirked, while Slyman and the other crew members behind Cavendish once again placed their hands on the hilts of their swords.

After all, their captain's words were rather harsh. If it were a normal person, their face would turn ugly, and they would lash out at them, then turn hostile...

"Ah, you're absolutely right!!"

Bartolomeo suddenly tapped his palm and nodded repeatedly with a look of sudden realization.

"Indeed, Luffy-senpai and Link-nii are both incredibly strong, far surpassing me..."

"No, no, no, how can I compare myself to Luffy-senpai and Link-nii? It really makes me feel ashamed, ahahaha~~~"

This rooster-headed "cannibal" seemed to be contemplating some ideal scene, and couldn't help but chuckle.

And he was scratching his head, looking embarrassed, and humbly declined with a grin.

Slyman and the other crew members: "..."

Sure enough, this guy isn't normal; he can't understand anything anymore, not even good or bad.

Or... has this guy gone completely mad from being a fan?

As long as you praise the Straw Hat Pirates and their crew members, it's okay to criticize them without any problem, right?

Tsk tsk tsk, those brainless fans are really terrifying~~~

A group of people said they had really learned something new.

"but……"

Suddenly, Bartolomeo's rare display of intelligence regained its advantage. He once again adopted the barrier gesture, his face full of vigilance, and said:

"How do I know if you're telling the truth?! What if you're planning to kill us and steal the Eternal Log Pose while we're on our way to find Luffy-senpai?!"

"Heh, the fact that you thought of this shows you're not entirely stupid after all~"

Cavendish crossed his arms and glanced at him disdainfully: "If I were to get something, I would never stoop to such despicable and underhanded tricks."

"Besides, you just said that yourself and came up with so many reasons for me. If I still take this approach, wouldn't I look even more like an idiot?!"

"Even if we take a step back and assume that I really have such thoughts, do you really think you are too weak to withstand my sneak attack?"

"How can this be?!!"

Bartolomeo, with his rooster-like hair, immediately retorted that he didn't think this rotten cabbage would be a problem for him.

"Isn't that settled then?!"

Cavendish suddenly erupted, his sharp-tongued face and rolling eyes yelling at him, "Then don't use your stupid thinking to judge my thoughts!!"

Don't assume everyone on this ocean is as foolish as you!!!

·· 0 flowers requested ··· ····

"There were clearly better options, but instead of choosing them, I've entered a hellish difficulty level. Did you kick my head?!"

Ok? !

Bartolomeo suddenly felt that Cavendish was subtly insulting him, but he had no proof.

In short...

Cavendish was too lazy to waste words with him and went straight to the point:

"If you don't let me go with you to find the Straw Hat Pirates, then I'll turn around and leave right now, and never bother you again!!!"

Is it really that good?!

Bartolomeo was suddenly taken aback. Had this guy really gone stupid, or had he just changed his personality?!

........ ......... ...

However, before he could figure it out, the next second, he saw Cavendish looking at him expressionlessly:

"Of course, after I leave, I will make sure to announce to the sea that you have this permanent pointer."

"Just like you told me before, it was part of your plan to prevent me from doing so!!"

"I'd like to see if I become the target of everyone's attacks after I get my hands on this Log Pose, and if you do too, you'll become the target of everyone's fire across this vast ocean!"

Bartolomeo: "..."

Oh no, this bastard is using the same method I used to threaten him to threaten me!!!

Bartolomeo suddenly felt a pain in his two fangs and in the top of his foot.

At that moment, he suddenly felt like he had shot himself in the foot.

What was originally a tactic to threaten this scoundrel has now been used against me...

He truly experienced all sorts of bittersweet feelings, and even the urge to strangle the other person!

"Want to come with me and go find Luffy and the others...?"

Faced with such an effective, and ultimately swift, threat from his opponent, Bartolomeo had to reconsider the feasibility of this approach.

After careful consideration with a furrowed brow, and after turning away to discuss the matter thoroughly with his Gambian and other underlings...

Suddenly, I realized that this approach wasn't entirely unfeasible.

873 Agreement reached! Everyone's happy! This is a win-win situation!! Now, we need to deal with Bucky~

"Anyway, our goal is to hand over the [Eternal Log Pose] to Luffy and Link as a gift for joining them."

The man with the rooster-like haircut and a bunch of unreliable, brain-dead guys were gossiping amongst themselves.

"The [Permanent Pointer] is of paramount importance, even exceptionally important. Having an ally to work with us would be ideal."

"Fortunately, this rotten cabbage head's strength is barely passable. He followed us all the way, escorting this [Permanent Pointer]. He's barely qualified as a bodyguard."

"As for potential risks, we've already discussed them in our previous conversations, so there shouldn't be any internal strife or sneak attacks."

"Of course, as Brother Link said, one should always be wary of others. We should have the necessary precautions and contingency plans."

"Once we deliver this [Permanent Pointer] to Link and the others, our goal will be achieved!!"

"As for whether Brother Link and the others can meet the demands that this rotten cabbage head made, that's his business."

"If Brother Link and the others are in a bad mood and give this clueless good-for-nothing a good beating, that would be perfect!!!"

Thinking of this, Bartolomeo with his rooster-like hair and his Gambian underlings chuckled to themselves.

Honestly, just thinking about such a scene is quite exciting and thrilling.

Bartolomeo and his crew never doubted whether Link and Luffy could meet Cavendish's demands.

This is a piece of cake for the Straw Hat Pirates, who have already become one of the Four Emperors.

Even in the eyes of these die-hard fans, there is nothing the Straw Hat Pirates cannot accomplish as long as they take action.

Just like when they rescued Fire Fist Ace during the Marineford War.

That's the real deal, the highest level of combat power facing the entire Navy, the Navy Headquarters, and the World Government.

Yet, they still held their own, calmly rescuing the person from the numerous forces of the navy.

Moreover, Whitebeard was completely unharmed, leading his crew to safety.

It could be said that from that time onward, in the eyes of Bartolomeo and others, the Straw Hat Pirates were omnipotent.

He is also a shoo-in for the next Pirate King.

Then Cavendish's demands would be no problem at all.

The difference is whether the Straw Hat Pirates are willing to grant Cavendish's request.

Well, deep down, Bartolomeo, Gambia, and the others still felt it would be better to give these guys a good beating.

Hey, I'm talking to you guys!

Upon seeing the group of blond and green-haired people with their silly, goofy grins, Cavendish couldn't help but frown.

"I think you're thinking about something very rude!!"

He said that, but at the same time, he was also making his own plans.

"The idea of ​​ambushing this bunch of idiots and stealing the [Permanent Pointer] is simply impractical."

"Then it would be much safer and easier to find the Straw Hat Pirates by following this group of guys."

"Furthermore, the Straw Hat Pirates are absolutely capable of meeting my requirements!!"

In Cavendish's eyes and understanding, the things he wanted were things that the other person could easily achieve.

He hadn't forgotten that during the Marineford War, Link, the prop master, had brought out a projector for Whitebeard, projecting footage of their Whitebeard Pirates' encounter with the Roger Pirates.

The battle between Whitebeard and Gol D. Roger, the Pirate King, allowed the world to witness once again the brilliance of these legendary figures!

Cavendish remembered it vividly; it was practically his dream!

To be able to showcase one's prowess to the world in such a high-level war...

Wow, I can't believe I'm getting so excited just thinking about it!

Cavendish quickly composed himself; he couldn't afford to become a fool like these idiots before him...

I'm being corrupted by these idiots!

"If the Straw Hat Pirates can meet my requirements, then everything will be fine!"

"If the Straw Hat Pirates were to ignore me, although the possibility is very low, it wouldn't be a problem either~~~"

That's right. If the Straw Hat Pirates feel that they are inexplicably ignoring him, then he can make a big deal out of this "Eternal Log Pose" incident and contact all sorts of media outlets.

In this way, as the first person to break the news and someone who personally experienced the incident, he can also enjoy the limelight and be interviewed extensively.

Yes, it's absolutely perfect!!

After mentally reviewing everything again, Cavendish found that everything was fine and nodded in satisfaction.

In that case, he's not at a loss no matter what!

Thus, he and Bartolomeo once again reached a very amicable alliance to cooperate.

The two of them decided to protect the "Eternal Log Pose" together and go find the Straw Hat Pirates!

This is a win-win situation!

And so, with that matter settled, there was nothing more to say.

Both sides immediately packed up and prepared to set sail.

However, there is one more issue to address before that.

What should we do with these 3 or 4 guys?

Bartolomeo's henchman, Gambia, pointed to Red-Nosed Bucky lying there, his face bruised and swollen from their beating, and asked.

"That guy...!"

Bartolomeo merely glanced at the man, then casually waved his hand:

"Just do a quick fix."

Hmm, the word "handle" is used quite subtly.

Bucky, who had been grumbling there, immediately perked up when he realized he was being dragged into this again.
