Ten minutes later, the straw hat Luffy and Beckman successfully boarded the ship and were led to Durant.
" It's you, you bastard?!"
There was still a long way to go. When Luffy saw Durant, he was furious and cursed,""You actually snatched Robin away. She's my companion. Bastard, quickly hand over Robin!!!”
"Luffy, calm down." Beckman tugged at Luffy's sleeve.
Beckman's eyes then turned to Durant. Both of them were looking at each other.
"Yo…Beckman, are you interested in joining our White Beard Pirates? Now that we have a strong army, the next Pirate King will be me.”Durant said as if he was joking and serious.
"Hehehe…Join you?"
Beckman also had a playful smile on his face." Then, when you lose, you'll bring me to join other pirate groups?!”
"Uh..."
The rest of the White Beard Pirates were speechless. This guy had exposed Durant's shortcomings right from the start.
"Watch your tone, Beckman.”Joss glared at Beckman unhappily, then glanced at Luffy and warned,""Although you are Ace's younger brother, I hope you will respect our captain. Otherwise…"
As soon as he said that, many people looked at Luffy fiercely.
Shen Ping, Marko, Ro, and the others looked at this scene with complicated expressions. They vaguely remembered that during the war, they had risked their lives to save Luffy. It had only been a short while, but it seemed like they had become enemies.
"He stole my companion!!”
Luffy didn't buy it. He continued to glare at Durant, his eyes filled with flames that wanted to melt Durant." Return Robin to me immediately. If you do, I'll beat you up!"”
"Luffy!"
Beckman glanced at Luffy. If it was the red-haired man who said this, it would be fine. After all, they were all the Four Kings, but Luffy…Now, he was just trash.
"Beat me up? You don't have the capital to do so. Your passion won't change anything.”
Durant looked at Luffy and said softly,""Seeing that you're young, I won't lower myself to your level this time…I hope there won't be a next time."
"There's one more thing. Nicole Robin is just an ordinary companion of yours, a simple historian. However, when she's with me, her value will be maximized.”
Durant said ambitiously. Beckman, who had a high IQ, immediately narrowed his eyes. He could hear Durant's purpose in one sentence.
Nicole Robin was a historian. She was the only person in the world who could decipher historical texts. As the vice captain of the red-haired captain, he had heard the red-haired captain mention some hidden things in historical texts. This was also what the red-haired captain had heard from Roger and the others.
"Are you crazy? You actually want to get that kind of thing? What's the difference between this method and the Golden Lion?”Beckman said in a deep voice.
Back then, the Golden Lion King and Roger had started a war. The reason was that the Golden Lion King was interested in the world-destroying superweapon and wanted to join forces with Roger. However, Roger had refused. In the end, the Golden Lion King had failed.
"I'm different from your Red-Haired Pirates.”
Durant shook his head and said indifferently,""You guys wander around the world every day, sailing freely. When you have nothing to do, you can hold a party to celebrate. However, our White Beard Pirates are not that relaxed.”
"Navy, auntie, Kaido, Blackbeard…"Also, the forces that participated in the war against us are all enemies of the White Beard Pirates.”Durant's eyes flashed as he stared at Beckman and said,""Even your Red-Haired Pirates are potential enemies.”
"You want to go against the whole world.”Beckman reminded,"The White Beard Pirates are not that powerful. Just a navy is enough to make you…"
"That's why I need ancient weapons!”
Durant interrupted Beckman, and Luffy gritted his teeth.
"Companions are close friends who live with each other day and night. They are family members who live together every day. How dare you use Robin like this?!”Luffy clenched his fists tightly." Treat her like a tool.”
"That's your companion, not mine.”
Durant said expressionlessly," And you have no right to judge me. Have you forgotten who Ace died for? If you weren't too weak, he wouldn't have blocked the Red Hound's punch for you.”
"So, Grass Hat Luffy…In the end, it was your weakness and incompetence that killed Ace!”
Durant's words were like a sharp knife that stabbed into Luffy's heart. He immediately lowered his head in a daze.
"It's best if you lose your confidence after being beaten by me!”
Looking at Luffy, who seemed to have collapsed, Durant was delighted. In fact, he already had another plan-Barrett.
As long as he could get the permanent pointer from this kid, he would not need any road signs, historical texts, or Nicole Robin. He would be able to reach Rafdruid and even find the legendary Hades.
However, the premise was that Luffy was willing to beg him. That way, Durant wouldn't mind giving him back.
Now…
"Even if I kill Nicole and Robin, I won't hand them over to you!”
Durant thought to himself as he looked at the grass-hat Luffy. If it wasn't for the fact that there were too many people in the White Beard Pirates who had a good impression of him, he would have caused a group of people to retaliate. Durant would definitely beat Luffy up first. This rookie who had never been beaten up by a big pirate was too arrogant.
After all, Shen Ping, Marko, Joz, Bista, Rowe…These five captains all had a good impression of Luffy.
But Durant didn't. He even hated this guy in his bones.
