Inside the gorgeous palace, several figures were sitting there. The maids were all dismissed directly. The only ones present were the three Boa sisters, Silvers Rayleigh, Shakky, Ren, Mansherry and the previous empress of Amazon Lily, Gloriosa, who was full of wrinkles, short in stature and used a cane. In addition, there was a large flowered python, Salome, who was coiled into a seat and its owner, Boa Hancock, sat on it.
"Tsk tsk, I really didn't mention it." Looking at Ren in front of her, Shakky chuckled and said, "This young man, who caused a series of commotions, is now known as various titles like the 'Blood Demon', 'God Killer', 'Walking Scourge' and other titles. You quietly came to the Calm Belt, no wonder the World Government can't catch you!"
"Brother, may I ask, I heard that you used to be the vice-captain of the Straw Hat Pirates?" Rayleigh looked at the young man in front of him, full of curiosity. The red-haired Shanks, who was once a trainee crew member of the Roger Pirates and is now one of the New World's Yonko, once mentioned Straw Hat Luffy to him. Therefore, he always wanted to meet the boy who made the red-haired Shanks willing to bet his hand.
"That's all in the past, everyone has their own ambitions." Ren didn't take it seriously. He didn't want to say more about this. He looked at the seemingly ordinary grey-haired old man wearing glasses and asked, "But, I think you should have received the news, right?"
"Captain of the second division of Whitebeard Pirates, 'Fire Fist' Portgas D. Ace will be publicly executed at Marineford in the near future! You, the vice-captain of the Roger Pirates, aren't you going to take action? I don't believe you don't know his identity."
"..." Hearing what Ren said, Rayleigh's face was slightly moved. Unexpectedly, the other party knew Ace's true identity.
"Roger's son?" He clenched his fists tightly and was silent for a long time. After all, he spread his hands and said helplessly, "It's better to spare my old bones! As of now, I am just a retired coating craftsman. Ace, the captain of the second division of the Whitebeard Pirates, has Whitebeard who will worry about him!"
He knows very well that Ace will be publicly executed. What does it mean for the World Government that is eager to establish its authority in order to restore its prestige at this moment? Especially since the Navy has so many combat forces, if he intervenes directly, not only is it unlikely to save him, but he may get himself involved.
After all, he was old and hadn't fought for a long time.Whether it's physical strength or swordsmanship, it has already regressed significantly.Moreover, he has a special status. Once he goes into battle, it means announcing to the Navy that the Roger Pirates are officially back.
By then, once their tacit understanding with the World Government is broken, even the other retired Roger Pirates members will not be able to live in peace. All members who once belonged to the Roger Pirates were bound to be hunted down by the World Government without sparing any effort. It is estimated that by then, even the red-haired Shanks' status as a Yonko will not be of any use.
"Really?" Ren didn't take it seriously. A pirate is a pirate. The Roger Pirates believed in free adventure. They were partners with Roger but no matter what concerns Rayleigh has, the Roger Pirates have been disbanded today and the other party really has no obligation to break his hard-won peaceful life for Ace.
Hancock on the side did not interrupt. The Kuja Empress rested her fair and slender legs lightly on Salome's body elegantly. With her right hand holding her chin, a pair of beautiful jewel-like eyes stared at Ren intently. She seemed full of curiosity, but also seemed to be struggling.
"The 'Dark King' Silvers Rayleigh…" Glancing at Shakky next to him, Ren looked at Rayleigh and showed a playful smile, "If you are willing to sell your old bones to me, I can help you save Fire Fist Ace!"
Rayleigh: "Ah! Trying to rescue someone from Marineford is like trying to steal food from a tiger's mouth!"
Shakky looked at Ren and chuckled, "Are you so confident, little brother?"
"For me, saving people doesn't necessarily mean going to Marineford!" Ren smiled and was full of confidence. If he wanted to, he could have released Fire Fist Ace already. He could even ask Law to use his miraculous plastic surgery skills combined with Op-Op Fruit abilities to find a prisoner with a similar face shape and figure to replace him. It could even result in avoiding revealing the truth as long as Ace lies low but he won't do it.
"Oh?" Hearing these words, Rayleigh's heart moved. With the other party's ridiculously powerful ability, there might be hope of rescuing Ace.
"Hey, Brother Ren, I've already retired, and I still want to enjoy my old age… but I don't have the energy to spend time with you young people!" As Rayleigh said that, his face straightened. Looking at Ren, he asked directly: "Would you like to change the conditions?"
Rayleigh was a little helpless. The other party really took advantage of his weak spot. This ambitious young man actually wanted to take him under his wing.
"Then it depends on how much bargaining chips you, the vice-captain of the Roger Pirates, can offer to win my heart?" Ren crossed his legs. Caressing the golden hair of Mansherry sitting there, the little girl covered her face in shame and Ren chuckled nonchalantly, "For example, a few rare Logia or Mythical Zoan Devil Fruits, etc. Maybe, I might be tempted!"
One must know that if 'Fire Fist' Ace dies, he will also be able to obtain the Logia Mera-Mera Fruit. If Rayleigh wants him to save Ace, the chips he pays must really make him excited.
Rayleigh couldn't help but roll his eyes. Asking for Logia or Mythical Zoan Devil Fruits, and he was still asking for a 'few'! Are these Devil Fruits so easy to come by?
"I can teach you all of mine and Roger's swordsmanship. Is this bargaining chip enough?" Rayleigh asked directly with a solemn face. Of course I'm very interested in the swordsmanship of you legendary strong men." Ren shook his head slightly and said with a smile, "But it's not enough!"
Both Roger and Silvers Rayleigh were once famous swordsmen. The swordsmanship of such a strong man really moved his heart. However, it didn't completely impress him.
"Then I'll add a Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit!" Rayleigh took a deep breath. Looking directly at Ren, he said in a deep voice: "This is all the bargaining chips I can offer!"
That was what he got accidentally after the Roger Pirates were disbanded. He originally wanted to give it to Shanks, but he was not interested in becoming a Devil Fruit user. Without even hearing him explain clearly what this Devil Fruit was, he refused to eat it. Therefore it remained with him to this day.
"Oh? Which Devil Fruit is this?" Ren glanced at him. He couldn't help but ask with some curiosity. He didn't expect that Rayleigh actually had a Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit.
"Mythical Zoan Human-Human Fruit, model: Titan!"
"What!?"
