Ruth and the others had no objection to Wood's desire to act alone.
To be honest, since the trip to Judiciary Island, they have also deeply understood that there is an unbridgeable gap between themselves and their own captain.
Robin has his own specialties and is not among the combatants on the ship. However, apart from fighting, they basically have no obvious specialties in other aspects.
It is also for this reason that Ruth and the others are determined to become stronger.
When Wood landed on Mignon Island, he did not immediately look for Corazon, who was also an undercover navy agent. Instead, he secretly found the pirate group to which Dies Barreiros belonged on the island.
Dies Barreiros's pirate group is not large in size, only about a hundred people. As the captain, Dies Barreiros, from the perspective of Wood who is hiding in the dark, has only the strength and aura. He is only at the level of a colonel in the headquarters.
With the strength of the other party, he actually dared to make a deal with the World Government through Doflamingo, and demanded a sky-high price of 5 billion Baileys.
Wood didn't know whether to say that Dies Barreiros was stupid or that he was really courageous.
Even if he really sold the "surgery fruit" for a sky-high price of 5 billion Baileys, does he really think that he has the ability to leave the island with these Baileys?
Is the World Government's money so easy to get? Or does Dies Barreiros think that the clown Doflamingo, who is an intermediary in the underground world, will help him leave?
After observing secretly for a while, Wood judged that Dies Barreiros did not look like the kind of powerful character who was deeply hidden, and that his pirate group was just a regular pirate group. After that, Wood directly chose Appeared openly and openly.
And in order to hide his identity from others, Wood used an astonishing speed to pass through a large number of guards in an instant and appeared directly in the wooden house where Dies Barreiros was.
Diez Barreiros, who was in a wooden house and had been in a state of nervousness during this period, saw a stranger suddenly appear in the house. He also ran to a wooden box in a hurry and put out a In a fighting stance, he was also ready to call for help.
However, before he could speak, the long sword Tianku had already left a faint red line on his throat, and the dripping blood was instantly absorbed by Tianku, causing the blade to become even more strange and sharp.
"Please don't yell, Mr. Dies Barreiros. I don't come here with any ill intentions, but I come here to cooperate with you."
Wood did not kill Dies Barreiros with one blow, because he was not very interested in the fruits of the operation. He was more concerned about the five billion Baileys.
Although the temptation of immortality can fascinate many people, Wood is definitely among them.
Eternal life does not mean immortality. Just because your lifespan is long enough is useless, it does not mean that you will be killed by others. Only your own strength is the real hard truth.
The surgical fruit can give humans eternal life, but the so-called "immortality" does not include unnatural death factors, otherwise the "surgical fruit" can be called the most powerful devil fruit.
If Dies Ballerus is killed now, Wood can also get the "surgery fruit", but the person doing the transaction is not Dies Ballerus, and the World Government and Doflamingo will definitely become suspicious, so then Some of them ignore the basics and focus on the last.
"From what I see, your attitude doesn't look like you are here to discuss cooperation."
After all, Dies Barreiros was a former general of the headquarters. His psychological quality was pretty good. After the initial panic, Dies Barreiros had calmed down and did not scream again.
He screamed and called his subordinates outside.
Obviously, with the strength that Wood just showed, he is fully capable of killing himself in a short period of time.
And if you are not even your opponent, then the efforts of those stinky subordinates outside will naturally be in vain.
But now that the other party didn't kill him immediately, it means that the other party came with a purpose as he said.
Wood put away the sky in his hand, and Dies Barreiros also breathed a sigh of relief.
Wood, who found a place to sit casually, crossed his legs and bluntly stated his purpose this time.
"I heard that you have the legendary devil fruit in your hand that can give people eternal life. I am somewhat interested in it."
Wood's words did not surprise Dies Barreiros in the slightest.
Through careful identification, he has recognized that the young man in front of him is the super rookie who has recently made a fuss on the sea, the navy traitor Wood!
Although everyone is a traitor to the navy, they are different from someone like Dies Barreiros who has been around for several years and is still a third-rate pirate.
The other party was a big shot who had only made his debut for a year, but had done many great things, and was eventually offered a bounty of one billion beli.
There were rumors in the past that the navy traitor Wood's strength was only superficial, and the billion-dollar bounty was huge.
However, through the brief contact, Dies Barreiros could conclude that although the other party was young, his strength did not have any moisture at all.
When the opponent just put the knife on his neck, Dies Barreiros clearly felt the powerful oppression of the billion-dollar pirate.
That feeling is a powerful sense of despair that no matter how hard you resist, you can't resist death.
For such a powerful super newcomer to find himself a third-rate pirate, Dies Barreiros really couldn't think of anything about his pirate group that would make the other party take notice.
If there is one, it is only a "surgical fruit" that is worth five billion beli and is rumored to be able to give people eternal life.
"If your goal is to obtain the fruits of the operation, I can only say that you are too late.
Even if you kill me now and take away the surgical fruits from my hands, the World Government and Doflamingo will hunt you down all over the world.
As a former marine, you should also understand how obsessed those big figures in the World Government are with the so-called eternal life."
The arm could not twist the thigh. After just a brief contact, Dies Barreiros knew quite clearly that guys of his level, even if several were tied together, may not be Wood's opponent.
Therefore, Dies Barreiros, who had nothing to do with Wood, could only choose to use the tiger skin as a banner, hoping to use the name of the world government to follow the underground world to fight against the prosperous Doflamingo.
The head comes to scare the soldiers.
"I've said it before, I'm here to talk about cooperation, not to kill people and buy goods.
Do you really think that sea gangster Doflamingo, as an intermediary in the underground world, will be honest with you?
Don’t forget, what kind of place is the underground world? Doflamingo may be honest with the strong, but do you think you belong to that type of person?”
