Chapter 89 I'm Sorry to Disappoint You, Barrett
Quinn, this bastard... actually used so many people for experiments! ?
Kaido's eyes widened with anger, panting.
"It hurts, it hurts..."
In the collapsed hill, Quinn climbed out with a bruised face and grimaced in pain.
Looking at Kaido who was walking towards him angrily with a mace, he was so scared that his fat trembled and said tremblingly:
"Kai, Kaido boss... I just want to help them strengthen their strength."
"Since Darren and Barrett can become stronger by injecting the virus... I think others should be able to do it too?"
"If the experiment is really successful, we can mass-produce powerful warriors!"
"——Shut up!!"
Kaido raised his mace angrily and roared.
In Quinn's horrified eyes, the mace in Kaido's hand began to emit dense purple electric light.
"No!! Boss Kaido!"
"Do you think everyone is that little navy kid!?"
Kaido rushed out with gnashing teeth.
"Thunderous Bagua!!"
Boom! !
A column of dust hundreds of meters high rose into the sky.
Accompanied by the sound of thunder, Quinn's shrill wails like a pig being slaughtered rang out in the valley one after another, echoing for a long time.
Jin turned around helplessly, looked at the sunset in the distance, and sighed deeply.
After ten minutes, the wails slowly disappeared.
The terrain of the entire vast valley has changed greatly, and the undulating hills have become shocking giant pits, densely spread on the ground, and look like the surface of the moon from a distance.
The smoke and dust are everywhere, and the wind is blowing.
Kaido walked out of the smoke slowly, holding the mace Hachisai in one hand and the fat man in overalls by his feet in the other, dragging him back like a dead pig.
The latter had completely fainted, his face was swollen like a pig's head, his head was full of lumps, and his eyeballs kept spinning.
After a round of venting, Kaido's anger was mostly gone. He snorted and sat on the ground, picked up the wine pot on his waist and drank it.
Seeing that he seemed to be in a much better mood, Jin found an opportunity and said in a deep voice:
"Mr. Kaido, the last batch of arms ordered by Golden Lion this time has just been sent out."
Kaido wiped the wine from the corner of his mouth, hummed and said:
"I don't know what the bastard Shiki has been crazy about recently. He has launched crazy attacks on some towns and ports. He is not afraid that the navy and the government will get anxious."
At this point, Kaido couldn't help but frowned.
"Logically speaking, Shiki is not an impulsive and reckless person. He must be plotting something by doing this."
Jin also fell into deep thought and wondered:
"He purchased such a large amount of arms from us. I always feel that he wants to plan a huge war."
"But Mr. Kaido, why don't you tell him about that navy?"
Kaido snorted coldly:
"What's there to say about this?"
"When Shiki, that bastard, invaded Marinford, he dragged me into the water. After the war, he hid and got rid of everything. Instead, I was targeted by that damn navy kid!"
He gritted his teeth.
"When I was in the Rocks Pirates, Lingling told me that besides our captain, Shiki should never be trusted."
"I hope he will suffer a little at the hands of Darren kid!"
The so-called alliance and cooperation between pirates are only for the sake of interests.
On this sea, Kaido doesn't trust anyone except Lingling, who can be trusted a little.
Hearing this, Jin fell silent.
Although what Kaido said made sense, for some reason, he always felt that things would develop in an unpredictable direction.
…
At the same time.
In a certain sea area of the Grand Line.
On a deserted island.
On the coast, a bonfire was rising.
The members of Roger's pirate group sat around the bonfire, happily eating barbecue, singing songs, and laughing happily from time to time.
Behind a huge reef more than ten meters away from the bonfire, Roger leaned in the shadow under the reef, staring straight at the ground in front of him.
"Cough cough cough..."
His face was listless, his hair was messy, and he coughed hoarsely from time to time, like a person with a hangover.
Rayleigh and Jabba folded their hands on their chests, looked at him with a sad face, and said nothing.
"Hey, don't look at me like that, I'm not going to die soon."
Roger glanced at them and laughed carelessly.
He bent his arms and posed a muscle-showing pose, with a bright smile on his slightly pale mouth:
"At least I won't die before we complete our journey."
Rayleigh pursed his lips and said unhappily:
"Just say less."
Jabba also shook his head helplessly.
However, infected by Roger's optimistic character, the clouds between their brows also dissipated a little.
Roger, your life is about to come to an end... We will accompany you through this wonderful and brilliant life.
The two of them secretly clenched their fists, their eyes firm.
"Captain, it's time to take medicine."
At this time, a voice came from the side.
The man's hairstyle is very unique, like a blooming saffron, wearing a pair of frameless glasses, a floral shirt and beach shorts, and holding a bowl of black medicine in his hand.
This is the latest ship doctor of Roger Pirates. Before joining Roger Pirates, he was the lighthouse keeper of Cape Twin, the entrance of the Grand Line. Not long ago, when Roger Pirates decided to sail around the sea again and pass through the Twin Towers, he decided to accept Roger's invitation to board the ship.
"Doctor Crocus, your medicine is too bitter, why don't I not drink it? Anyway, I won't die from this disease for a while, right?"
When Roger saw the medicine in Crocus's hand, his face immediately wrinkled into a bitter gourd, waving his hand and shaking his head.
"You have to drink it, otherwise you can't fulfill your dream of traveling around the world."
Crocus looked helpless.
Before joining Roger Pirates, he never thought that the legendary pirate Gol D. Roger, who was famous in the sea, had a personality like a child.
"I have added sugar to it this time, it shouldn't be so bitter."
He handed the bowl over like coaxing a child.
"Really?"
Roger looked at him doubtfully.
Kulokas nodded solemnly.
"You didn't lie to me, did you?"
Roger looked at Rayleigh and Jabba again.
Rayleigh and Jabba were both stunned, but they saw Kulokas winking at them, so they nodded and promised:
"It's definitely not bitter!"
"Okay then..."
Roger muttered, took the medicine bowl, looked up with a bitter face, and poured all the medicine into his mouth.
Then --
Puff! ! !
The dark medicine spurted out of Roger's mouth like a fountain.
Kulokas: ...
Rayleigh: ...
Jabba: ...
"It's so bitter!!"
Roger's face was distorted, and he didn't drink a single sip of the medicine.
"... I'll make another bowl." Kulokas turned around quietly.
"Thank you, Dr. Kulokas!" Rayleigh and Jabba bowed deeply.
However, just as Kulokas walked away, a steady and powerful footsteps suddenly came.
Rayleigh and Jabba were both startled, their faces changed slightly.
They turned their heads and saw a tall and burly blond figure standing not far away, looking at Roger who was rolling on the ground with gloomy eyes.
"Sure enough... you won't live much longer, right?"
Barrett's eyes flickered with unspeakable meaning.
There was regret, sadness, unwillingness... but more of it was unbelievable.
"... Captain Roger."
Roger stopped rolling, stood up from the ground, and patted the mud on his butt.
He smiled disapprovingly:
"I was discovered..."
After getting the confirmation, Barrett was stunned as if struck by lightning.
He stared at Roger blankly, and it took a while for him to come back to his senses and turn around.
"Since you are not the strongest, there is no need for me to stay in the pirate group."
He said this with his back to Roger in a cold tone.
Rayleigh and Jabba were shocked.
"What are you talking about? We are about to complete the great voyage!"
"Barrett, how can you leave at this time!?"
They stared at Barrett's broad, tall, but resolute and cold back, and questioned angrily.
Barrett took a step, and his sarcastic voice rippled in the air.
"A dying man is not qualified to be my captain, Douglas Barrett!"
"--You!!" Rayleigh and Jabba were full of anger.
"It's okay."
Roger waved his hand to interrupt the two and smiled:
"Let him go."
He looked at Barrett's back as he walked away, and suddenly laughed and shouted:
"I'm sorry to disappoint you... Barrett."
Barrett's footsteps paused.
He lowered his head, gritted his teeth, and his eyes under his golden hair had turned red without knowing when.
He clenched his fists and grinned wantonly:
"What bullshit are you talking about, Roger!!"
"I never expected anything from you!!"
After that, he quickened his pace and ran towards the small submarine on the coast.
"Barrett... Go! I believe you will become the strongest in the world!!"
Roger's hearty and heroic laughter came from behind.
Barrett staggered, clenched his fists, and dived into his submarine.
After he hid in the submarine and left the island far away,
Barrett stopped the engine and looked at the empty cabin in front of him with a dull expression.
Bang!
He pounded his fists on the control column and roared angrily:
"Damn it!!"
"Damn it!!"
"Damn it!!"
"..."
Under his messy blond hair,
he had already burst into tears.
