Pirate: I can copy your ability

It was naturally impossible for Lu Gui to say the words "you don't deserve it". After all, he and Xiao Hei were neither enemies nor friends, so it was inappropriate to say so.

He patted Xiao Hei on the shoulder and said with a smile:

"What is there to compare? Nothing is impossible on the sea. As long as you can work unremittingly for a goal, you will have more and more. Come on, we are all still young!"

"Yeah!" Xiao Hei didn't expect that Lu Gui would come to enlighten him. He was very encouraged and nodded heavily.

"Come on, take me to Black Hammer."

With his fighting spirit ignited, Xiao Hei returned to his original self. It was just because he met a young man like Lu Gui for the first time that he felt a little inferior.

Lu Gui's enlightenment planted the seeds of improvement in his heart, and maybe he could grow into a strong person in the future.

The pace of the two was not slow, and it didn't take long for them to arrive at the door of Black Hammer's shop.

The scale is indeed much larger than that of Hongjing. People are coming and going in front of the door, most of them are tall men wearing black suits and expressionless faces.

Not many people dress casually like Lu Gui.

The two of them kept walking and followed the flow of people into the Black Hammer Shop. The noise inside was so chaotic that Lu Gui couldn't help but frown.

Xiao Hei didn't think anything of it, he was used to it.Seeing that Lu Gui didn't like the environment here, he didn't waste any time. He motioned for Lu Gui to follow him and walked along the aisle through a door. The noise immediately decreased by [-]%.

A counter appeared in front of the two of them, and there were four or five people there, taking pictures, as if waiting for something.

"Brother Lu Gui, I can only take you here. Anyone who wants to buy information will queue up there, very quickly.

And the reputation here has always been good. Although it is the territory of the H Gang, it is also very rule-abiding. "

Xiao Hei pointed to the queue and explained softly.

"Okay, that's it. You can leave. Nice to meet you."

Lu Gui nodded and gave another [-] Baileys to Xiao Hei as recognition of his service.

"I can't ask for this anymore. You've already given me a commission, and you've given me a lot. If I take it again, I'd be a little greedy.

Take care, I'm leaving. "

Xiao Hei shook his head, and after struggling for a moment with his eyes wandering over Bailey, he decisively refused and left quickly.

"It's quite powerful to be able to control one's desires. It's much better than what I used to do."

Lu Gui looked at Xiao Hei's back, smiled, put Bailey away, and walked to the back of the line to line up.

Just like what Xiao Hei said, the people at the front of the team didn't take long, and soon it was Lu Gui's turn.

He sat across from a middle-aged man while carrying a box, and directly stated the purpose of his visit.

"You also want to find Phil Buck? He is quite popular, ha!" The middle-aged man opposite had a teasing tone that surprised Lu Gui.

"Are there many people looking for him?"

Bloodaxe Xilu, who was killed by Lu Gui, thought he was the only one who knew where Buck was, but now it seems that it has become a well-known secret.

"It's quite a lot. I want to know his address. It's [-] Baileys. If I want to know his current situation, I'll add another [-]." The middle-aged man did not forget his identity and first reported his own charging standards.

"It's not expensive, tell me specifically." Lu Gui took out one hundred thousand beli and handed it over, then took out another twenty thousand and put it on the table.

"I'm satisfied with what you said. The [-] yuan is a tip for you."

"Haha, you are really polite, so I will explain it to you carefully.

This Phil Buck currently lives on Xingluo Island - Island No. 36. His mother died early and his father also passed away a while ago, leaving him alone.

Speaking of which, he used to be a navigator of a very powerful pirate group in the Western Sea. He entered the Grand Line and the bounty reached the highest level of 4000 million Baileys.Later, I heard that he was wiped out by other pirate groups, and he was injured and returned to the West Sea.

But with such a reputation, there are naturally many pirates who want to hire him as a crew member to go to sea. Our organization also wanted to recruit him into the group at the beginning!

But, after finding him, the leader of our organization was disappointed. Guess what? "

"Could it be that he was seriously injured before and can't recover?" From the middle-aged man's introduction, Lu Gui started to have the ability to read minds.

"You guessed it right, it really can't be cured, and it also hurts the eye, making it blind.

Tell me, a pirate who is a navigator is no different from a waste without his glasses. "The middle-aged man curled his lips and said disdainfully.

"You're actually blind?" Lu Gui was also very surprised. It was a bad start for him. Is there any need to go and look for him?

"Yes, you are blind. All the people who come to me to buy information about him are greatly disappointed. You don't have to go there in vain. Find another navigator."

"I will consider your suggestion. Please tell me about his character."

Lu Gui would not listen to what the other party said. He was already here, so how could he do it without taking a look.

Although it is indeed difficult to have no eyes, it is best not to use the way of thinking of the previous life to judge people in this world. There are many variables. Maybe the other party has other talents that Lu Gui invites!

"Character? If you become a pirate, why should you care about your character?" The middle-aged man was quite speechless, but for the sake of money, he continued to talk about his understanding.

"Buck is quite an unusual person among pirates. I have never heard of killing innocent people indiscriminately. His bounties were all obtained by fighting pirates and fighting against the navy.

In appearance, he is very quiet. At first glance, he does not look like a pirate, but more like a noble.

As for other things, I don’t know much here, you see…” the other party said, pointing to Bailey on the table with a smile.

"It's yours. I'd like to go and see where he is on Island 36." Lu Gui pushed the money over and said calmly.

"There is a Phil's Bookstore in the southeast of the island. He opened it. You can find it there." The middle-aged man counted the money without raising his head and said with a smile.

Lu Gui nodded, stood up, picked up the box and left.

This day's harvest was good. First I got a red tooth that was no worse than a good sharp knife, and then I found Phil Buck's residence. The merits were complete.

Back at his residence, Lu Gui started training non-stop every day. His own strength was the foundation for him to gain a foothold in the world of pirates, and he would not slack off.

The day passed quickly. Early the next morning, Lu Gui met the caravan manager. After packing up, he headed towards Xingluo Island.

Xingluo Island has 55 archipelagos, less than half of which are suitable for human habitation. Island No. 36 is located in the southern part of the archipelago.

Lu Gui took the boat for more than two days and finally landed at the port there. He said goodbye to everyone in the caravan and walked toward Phil's Bookstore alone.

Along the way, the environment on the island is good, with birds singing and flowers fragrant. It is really suitable for seclusion.

After walking around and asking around for a while, Lu Gui stood opposite Phil Bookstore under the noon sun.

It was a two-story building. There were no other neighbors around, and no human voice could be heard. Only the sound of pages turning under the umbrella in front of the bookstore could be heard.

Lu Gui carefully looked at the young man who was flipping through the book. The information was indeed the same as the information provided in Black Hammer. He was wearing a black eyepatch under his short brown hair, wearing a light yellow shirt and a pair of black pants. He was flipping through the book slowly. The style is quite full.

"I can't see, but I've learned Braille. It's quite impressive." Lu Gui's voice broke the silence at the moment, but Buck opposite him didn't pay attention and didn't even frown, as if he was used to such interruptions from others, but still I just "read" the book on my own.

Seeing this, Lu Gui became interested in this blind navigator. He walked over and sat across from him, and then said as if he was familiar with it:

"What book are you reading, about navigation?"

Buck's hand paused for a moment, then he raised his head, his tone calm and natural.

"Are you also the one who wants to go to sea with me? You sound young, but seeing what I am like now, do you still want to continue extending invitations?"

"Before I came here, I heard that many people came to look for you. The time was not too far behind when I arrived here. Why is it so quiet here and no one comes here?"

Lu Gui patrolled around and found no trace of anyone else.

Buck closed the book, picked up the coffee on his right hand accurately, took a sip and put it back in its original position. The position was exactly the same as before, which made Lu Gui's eyes brighten when he was observing him.

"Everyone else looked here from a distance. After discovering that I was indeed blind, most of them cursed and left. They didn't want to waste more time on me."

Buck's upright sitting posture, calm and gentle tone, and meticulous care of himself and his surroundings meant that no one would doubt that he was a noble.

Are you just pretending or not? Is the threshold for becoming a pirate so high?

Lu Gui muttered in his heart that the ability to read minds is really not used on blind people now. This made Lu Gui unclear about what kind of activities were going on in Buck's mind.

"You just said that most of those people just cursed and left. What about these few people? I don't believe there aren't a few crazy people among them."

"What does this have to do with you? Just tell me what the purpose is. Although I am blind, I am not as leisurely as you." Buck picked up the coffee again and took a sip, obviously intending to see off the guests.

But Lu Gui was more interested in this person now. He did not suffer from the decadence of suddenly losing his light. He accepted the current situation calmly, and the loss of his eyes did not affect his actions and life.

Lu Gui wanted to find a navigator to board his ship, but when he met an interesting person, he didn't want to miss it.

Besides, the bounty of 4000 million Baileys shows that Buck already has the strength of the fish-man dragon. He is still so young, and his future achievements will definitely not be low.

and so……

"How about joining my pirate group? The treatment is good!"

"You came to me probably because of my previous identity as a navigator, but I can't see now. Are you looking for a blind man to be a navigator?"

Buck was a little surprised by Lu Gui's invitation. A normal person would not have such thoughts when meeting him. Could he be another lunatic?
