Chapter 268 Bazel and Junzi: Sorry, you're a good person, but I have a fiancé.
[Sabaody Archipelago, Tree No. 1]
In full view of everyone, Loki impaled the barely alive Guthrod on the protruding treetop.
"Hey, you onlookers, listen up!!"
"I am Loki!"
"This guy is a slave trader who sells mermaid slaves. Now, I'll relay my brother's message!"
Loki pulled out a cheat sheet from his pocket, cleared his throat, and shouted, "Anyone the Beasts Pirates encounters selling slaves, regardless of the race of the slaves, is to be killed!"

As the speech continued, the crowd of onlookers erupted in uproar.
They recognized the man who was being hung up.
The younger brother of the God of Fortune!
"Hey, that guy's Du Feld's brother, right? I remember he has a lot of business in the underworld!"
"Yeah, tsk tsk tsk, they really have some nerve. I heard that Fukujin seems to have quite a few connections in the World Government."
"This is going to be interesting. If the God of Fortune does nothing, his business will definitely suffer a big blow."
"Who can argue with that? But Fukujin is known for his caution, especially now that the great pirate Bazel's strength has been proven once again!"
I've heard that the goldfields of Water Seven are still there, and many prospectors go there to mine some gold to sell.
huh~~
A sudden gust of wind arose, and several wanted posters soared into the sky.
Loki took the bounty poster that had been blown onto his face.
[Barzel (pictured), Bounty: 1.819 billion Berries, ONLYALIVE]
Loki whistled as he looked at the latest updated drawing.
The painting depicts Bazel standing in Water 7, raising his hand to unleash sunlight that illuminates the frozen sea.
"That birdman's subordinate has an exceptional talent for taking photos."
"Big brother!"
"Your bounty has increased again!"
Big brother?!
Upon hearing the giant's shout, the onlookers instinctively turned to look in the direction the giant was greeting.
"It's Bazel!!!"
"Let's go, let's get out of here quickly! That guy is a ruthless killer!"
The once bustling square became deserted within half a minute.
However, from the wooden houses not far away, there were still prying eyes peeking out.
Bazel walked to Rocky's feet and looked up at Gemont, who was no longer breathing.
He snapped his fingers with his right hand.
A beam of golden light shot out from the golden eye hidden in the clouds.
Only when the corpse turned into glittering gold did Bazel nod in satisfaction.
"Sure enough, anything looks much better when it's turned into gold."
"Otohime, take the fishmen back to Ryugu Castle first. I have something else to do."
"I will come to the Dragon Palace to pick you up after this is done."
Bazel plopped down on the grass near the tree stump and looked at the mermaid who was still circling around him.
"You too, this place may be destroyed in the future. Go back and pack your things, and then I will take you to a new home."
The four mermaids, each with their own unique charm, responded in unison.
After leaving a red lipstick mark on Bazel's face, she followed Otohime toward the sea.
Watching Loki, as their guardian, escort them away, Baloric suddenly spoke.
"Those four mermaid ladies really want to have little fish-men for you."
"But are you sure you can handle it?"
Bazel was taken aback at first, then looked at Baloric with disdain.
"You trash, you used that mind-reading ability to peek into other girls' minds again."
Barolorik's expression remained unchanged: "It's a habit, I can't change it."
"That's why you can't find a girlfriend. Come on, sit down."
Bazel patted the grass next to him.
"As someone who's been there, let me teach you some high-EQ tips for picking up girls."
Barolorik wanted to refuse, but for some reason, the image of the mermaid ladies kept lingering in his mind.
After sitting down with a stern face, Barolok seemed to realize that his muscles were too stiff.
"I'm not used to sitting in places like this."
"I understand, you like a high-quality life."
After smilingly offering the other person an excuse, Bazel gestured for Baloric to come closer and whispered something in a low voice.
"Let me tell you, when it comes to pursuing girls—"
Brooke, standing nearby, scratched his head: "Chasing girls? I know how to do that, Barolorick!"
Barolorik immediately left Bazel and turned to his childhood idol.
"Let me tell you, to see if a girl is right for you, just see if she lets you see if she's fat—"
Watching Barolok nod seriously, occasionally taking out his notebook to jot something down.
Bazel's lips twitched.
Good heavens!
He refused the secrets that I had kindly taught him, and instead insisted on learning the ways of the perverted from Brook.
What girl would show you that kind of thing the moment you meet her?!
Don't even mention the serious stuff, I can't do it either!
"Bazel, what are they talking about?" Shakky asked curiously, having come to join the conversation.
"Learning how to become a noble and elegant pervert."
Bazel didn't interfere; let Baloric learn if he wanted, since it wasn't him who taught him anyway.
He turned to look at Xia Qi.
"Why are you here? What's about to happen here might not be suitable for you. The Knights of God will be here soon."
"You probably don't want to see those guys again, right?"
Knights of God?
Perhaps it was recalling the past, but Xia Qi's smile disappeared and her brows furrowed.
His eyes were filled with disgust.
"How did those scum end up here?"
"How would I know? I accidentally saved a CP agent before, and I exchanged this information with her for the life-saving favor."
Bazel lay back, his right hand behind his head.
"So you'd better leave this island as soon as possible. Eleven years ago, you were a great treasure that the Celestial Dragons fought over."
Upon hearing this, Shakky did not leave; instead, she sat down next to Bazel.
He was holding a Den Den Mushi (a type of Den Den Mushi) that had been connected.
"Bazaar!"
"Are you going to fight the Knights of God?!"
The Den Den Mushi looked excited.
"Rayleigh, quickly turn the car around, we're going back to Sabaody Archipelago!!"
"I already told you to turn around! I'm the captain!"
"Stop talking nonsense, you idiot captain!"
The Den Den Mushi's face was pulled to one side.
"We're already in the New World, how could we possibly go back? Is your head filled with rum, Captain?!"
"Damn it, you disobedient first mate—"
The sounds of ping-pong balls being played came from the Den Den Mushi (a type of electric scooter).
"Yaoxi Yaoxi"
Suddenly.
The Den Den Mushi took out its red nose from its shell and put it on.
"Bucky! You've finally decided to become my partner?"
"How could that be possible? Although I'm very happy about it."
The Den Den Mushi squinted and asked, "We're looking for other Poneglyphs. I wanted to ask if you have any news?"
Bazel placed Shakky's Den Den Mushi on his chest, looking languid.
"Yes, I do, but only if you're willing to become my partner can I tell you the historical information I know."
The Den Den Mushi muttered things like "Impossible," and "Born a member of the Roger Pirates, will die a member of the Roger Pirates."
Do you really know?
The Den Den Mushi's voice changed tone.
Shanks?
"Yes, I really know, and I even have a few rubbings of the historical text."
"~~"
Shanks' voice suddenly stopped in the Den Den Mushi, and Rayleigh's voice came through.
"How much information do you beasts know about the Poneglyphs? If there's anything suitable, we can exchange information."
O
"Let's trade!"
Bazel closed his eyes, enjoying the "caress" of the sun and the breeze.
"Sure, if you let Buggy join the Beasts Pirates, I can answer a question about the Poneglyphs for you."
The Den Den Mushi remained silent for several breaths.
"Why do you insist that Bucky join you?"
Finally, Rayleigh asked the question that none of the Roger Pirates understood.
Why does Bazel like Bucky so much?
"I like that brat's aura, that's all."
"Bucky, listen up—"
—The Ships of the Roger Pirates in the New World—
"I've never been a genius. I was just average when I was a child, I'm still just average now, and I'll probably be just average in the future."
But I have met many, many geniuses.
On the Oro Jackson, Bucky stared blankly at the Den Den Mushi.
"Don't give up because of temporary setbacks; life is never smooth sailing."
"It's nice to stop occasionally, or take a detour and see the scenery in other places."
"Of course~~"
"You might accidentally stumble upon the Beasts Pirates while taking a detour, and I'll give you a warm welcome."
Bucky, who was still moved a second ago, instantly lost his composure.
"You're just trying to trick me into joining you!!"
Joyful laughter echoed through the Oro Jackson.
Whether it was Roger or anyone else, they weren't worried that Bucky would agree to their request.
Bucky is a kid they've watched grow up; everyone knows what kind of personality he has.
After playing around for a while, Roger took the microphone.
"We're preparing to storm the most mysterious island in legend, Bazel."
"This is a competition. If you lose easily, I'll definitely look down on you."
The Den Den Mushi scoffed, "Don't joke around, Roger."
"I'm definitely going to win this game."
"And the big banquet is in a few months, aren't you planning to attend?"
A grand banquet?
Roger glanced at Rayleigh and Jabba, who were making an "X" sign with their hands, and swallowed the words that had risen to his throat.
"If we can make it."
Faced with Roger's vague words, Den Den Mushi's two large eyes narrowed slightly.
"Oh~~ What is your Roger Pirates planning to do? Are you trying to overtake us by taking a shortcut?"
Roger simply responded with an awkward laugh.
He's really not good at dealing with people.
Seeing this, Rayleigh had no choice but to take the Den Den Mushi.
After exchanging a few meaningless words with Bazel, I hung up the phone.
Then————
Roger's crew surrounded Buggy, who was huddled up in a ball.
"Roger, I don't see anything particularly outstanding about Bucky."
"How would I know? Don't ask the captain about these things. He's a wise man who solves big problems!"
Roger raised his head, his face full of pride.
"The Roger Pirates, set sail!!"
Sabaody Archipelago
Shakky put away her Den Den Mushi, patted her bottom, and got up.
"Then I'm leaving. I need to hide before those bastards arrive—!?"
Tap tap tap... A tall, slender figure that couldn't be ignored suddenly appeared at the end of the street.
Golden, flowing curls, a black cloak, long, straight legs, and—
"The main character is here. You've moved quickly. Xia Qi, you should leave here first."
Bazel stood up, and the serpent spirit appeared, ready to burrow into his body at any moment.
Barolorik, standing to the side, was equally on high alert.
"Bazaar, this guy is strong!"
After scrutinizing Junzi's attire, Bazel suddenly grinned and said, "I was thinking before that the social skills Brook taught you were useless, but now it seems they might come in handy."
"Look, this guy showed it to you without you even asking."
"Is this the time for jokes? Don't you know the place?" Baroric retorted irritably.
"Bazaar, I am the military commander of the Manmaia family. As intelligent as you are, you should be able to guess the purpose of my visit."
Junzi stopped on the grass ten meters away from Bazel, his heterochromatic eyes glancing at Xia Qi as she quietly left.
"I never expected the treasures of God Valley to appear here."
"But I'll let it slide this time. She's not as important as you."
"become----"
Bazel hadn't expected the Divine Order to still be paying attention to him, but that didn't stop him from taking the lead in the conversation.
"I'm sorry, you're a good person, but I'm already engaged."
Junzi froze, a golden bandage question mark appearing on his forehead.
Who proposed to him?!
