When Ike walked out of the bedroom again and returned to the Sabaody Archipelago.

It was already noon and close to dinner time.

He originally wanted to be back before breakfast, but Hancock was unsportsmanlike and took advantage of the moment when he got up and was off guard.

He used the awakening Sweet-Sweet Fruit to test Ike with his awakened form.

How could Ike endure this?

I immediately turned on the berserk mode and before I knew it, I had reached this point in time.

"Huh? Old guy Rayleigh finally showed up!"

Back on the island, Ike scanned the entire island as usual and discovered a powerful aura.

The location is in area 13, inside Xia Qi's blackmail bar.

The only powerful person who can appear there is the Pirate King's deputy, 'Pluto' Silvers Rayleigh.

Only Red-Haired Shanks, one of the Four Emperors, has a chance.

However, considering the result of mind reading and the degree of breath attenuation, the only possibility is the former.

Now that the customer has shown up, Ike will naturally not be absent.

He immediately teleported and disappeared from the spot.

the other side.

Rayleigh, the 'Pluto' who had just returned from outside the island, had just sat down and had a few drinks when he heard what Xia Qi said.

"Yesterday, 'Devil Merchant' Ike came here."

After hearing those few words, especially the words "devil merchant", Rayleigh sat up straight in an instant.

His expression became extremely serious, and he looked at Xia Qi quietly, waiting for what was to come.

It can be said that Rayleigh has been paying attention to this person for a long time.

He noticed Ike when he first became famous in the town of Rogge in the East Sea.

Because, a newcomer who just debuted has three colors of domineering power, and his reported accomplishments are not low.

Rayleigh became interested in it.

And they believe that Ike will be the seedling of the new era, destined to stir up quite a stir.

He just didn't expect that the wind and waves would come so quickly.

When the Alabasta incident occurred, not only Crocodile, one of the "Seven Warlords of the Sea", was killed.

Less than three days later, Admiral Aokiji was defeated and captured, overshadowing the news of Crocodile's death.

And spread the reputation of "Devil Merchant" Ike throughout the world.

At this time, Rayleigh changed his mind.

Ike is no longer seen as a young seedling, but as a real force that has the potential to change the world situation.

A sea king who is destined to reach the top!

At the same time, the members under his command also came into Rayleigh's sight.

Then he found out that the octopus Hachi who saved his life was killed by the "little thief cat".

This made Rayleigh both angry and helpless.

I want to avenge Xiao Ba, but I don't have the strength to do it.

However, he had an idea in his mind to test his skills against the other party after Ike and his crew arrived at the Sabaody Archipelago.

Since I can't take revenge, then inflicting some injuries on the other party in the name of sparring can be considered a kind of consolation.

As a result, the Seven Waters incident shocked the world.

The protagonists of the incident were a group of people that Rayleigh was familiar with.

The record created is even more horrifying than that in Alabasta.

There are three admiral-level fighters, one of whom is old Capna.

Plus two alternate admirals, the CP0 deputy chief, and the entire Demon Slayer Fleet.

Such a military configuration can almost wipe out all the pirates in the New World, including the Four Emperors.

No one can resist it!

However......

What surprised Raleigh was that such an armed force was completely defeated.

They were all captured by Ike's group.

This news not only shocked countless forces in the ocean.

It also made Rayleigh give up the idea of ​​sparring with him.

Since you have chosen to retire, why bother getting involved in trivial matters?

As for Xiao Ba's revenge, Rayleigh chose to burn more paper money to repay the man for saving his life.

After that, I thought that unless he came to me, there would be no contact between the two sides.

Xia Qi's words immediately made Rayleigh's heart hang in the air.

"He said he had information about your Captain Roger's descendants and wanted to use it to make a deal with you."

Xia Qi took a puff of her cigarette and conveyed Ike's words truthfully.

Not only did he not want to offend the other party, but it was also for Rayleigh's sake.

as predicted!

Upon hearing Xia Qi's words, a hint of excitement flashed across Rayleigh's serious expression.

"Captain's offspring?!"

Xia Qi nodded, "That's what he said."

"From the title the navy gave him and the intelligence we've gathered since his debut, it shouldn't be false."

"I understand, but I don't understand what it is about me that he would like."

Rayleigh certainly knew this.

But after thinking about it for a long time, he still couldn't figure out the other party's purpose of the transaction.

"Is it about that island?"

Apart from the final island and Raftel, Rayleigh couldn't think of anything else of great value on him.

"It doesn't have to be a physical object, maybe it's strength, lifespan, or something like that."

Xia Qi took two puffs of her cigarette and offered a possibility.

She knew the origin of Ike's title.

It was first spread by the nobles in the East China Sea who were deprived of their lives in exchange for wealth.

There are also rumors that pirates exchange treasures and lifespans for power.

These have long been no secret among the forces in the sea.

"If you decide, I can tell you where they are."

As an intelligence dealer, Xia Qi naturally has the upper hand when it comes to gathering information on his home turf.

After Ike left yesterday, she found out where he was staying.

"I must know about Roger's offspring!"

After thinking for a moment, Rayleigh made a decisive choice.

Xia Qi had anticipated this and was about to speak and tell the location.

A figure suddenly appeared in the middle of the bar.

Rayleigh reacted quickly and launched a fierce attack towards the figure.

No matter who the other party is, how can he avoid his observation Haki.

Rayleigh wouldn't allow the news that Roger had offspring to get out!

Otherwise, neither the Navy nor the World Government will let Roger's descendants go.

So, Rayleigh launched an attack directly.

The figure did not dodge or evade, but calmly took the punch that contained powerful and domineering power.

"As expected of the Pirate King's deputy, his taijutsu is not much worse than his swordsmanship."

Both attack and defense happened in an instant.

Neither of the people in the room had time to see the figure's appearance clearly, but Xia Qi's expression suddenly changed after hearing the voice.

"Rayleigh, stop it!"

Of course, she didn't need to shout.

Since his attack was easily taken by someone, Rayleigh naturally had to be cautious and find out the background of the person who came.

He was stunned when he saw this.

He also understood why Xia Qi hurriedly stopped him.

"'Devil Merchant' Ike!"

Rayleigh's pupils shrank suddenly.

As one of the spectators of this farce, Ike had a calm expression on his face and watched the development of the situation silently.

Of course, just to be on the safe side.

Ike took another step forward and protected Makino, who had taken him in, behind him.

He completely ignored the difference in size between himself and the other person.

He looks like a little man.

Makino, who was originally a little worried, couldn't help but smile knowingly.
