Compared with the original work, there is no change, and he doesn't even look much younger, but his hiding methods and tricks are dazzling. If Ross hadn't locked him firmly with Observation Haki, he would have been left behind after a few moves.
"I don't have any malice, and I didn't see anything that I shouldn't have seen."
Seeing that he couldn't get rid of Ross, Laffitte decisively gave up his escape and stood on the roof and looked at Ross, showing a very helpless expression and gently spreading out the crutch in his hand.
Ross looked at him calmly and said, "You don't look like a restless person … So, are you interested in coming with me and turning the world upside down?"
Laffitte was a little surprised and his eyes flashed with thought. He immediately put a hand on his chest and made a gentlemanly bow with a smile on his face and said:
"It's an honor to join the Ghost Hand Pirates, Captain."
He has been constantly learning about the world and the situation of West Blue. He even got a lot of detailed intelligence about the Ghost Hand Pirates who rose to the top after the rise of West Blue.
As a restless person, he naturally will not plan to live a peaceful life. He always has to find an opportunity to jump out and toss around in the world. Although he didn't plan to jump out so early, Ross chased him all the way here to invite him and it may not be a good thing to refuse.
Smart people always make the smartest choices.
Ross slightly smiled.
"Ross."
"Laffitte is good at hiding and sailing."
Laffitte put one hand on the brim of his hat, tilted his head slightly down, and gently pulled the brim of his hat with his fingers. This action doesn't match the title of 'Demon Sherrif' at all. He looks like an orthodox gentleman.
… …
Recruiting Laffitte is as easy as he imagined. Laffitte has nothing to pack up, or he seems to have hidden everything on his body, but he doesn't know where he is hiding it.
This trip to the Water Sea also came to an end with Laffitte's joining. Ross took the new navigator across two streets and found Robin.
"Nico Robin, intelligence officer …" Ross introduced Robin and nodded at her. "Laffitte, the new navigator on board."
Both of them were extremely intelligent, and in some aspects, Laffitte was even better than Nicole Robin. After all, Robin had spent most of her time studying.
"Speaking of which, Marines have been secretly watching you."
After a simple greeting, Laffitte rotated the red cane in his hand and smiled at Ross.
Ross shook his head indifferently and said, "There will naturally be Marines on this island. Don't pay attention to it. Before entering the Grand Line, I don't think Marines will come to trouble us."
"Indeed."
Laffitte put down the cane in his hand. He intended to say that if he didn't mind, he could go to the Marine's eyes and interrogate them about their movements. He could even pass some false information to the Marine, but it seemed unnecessary so he didn't mention it.
"If there is nothing else, you can go back to the ship and think about the next stage … Go to the Grand Line!"
"Grand Line, that's a very challenging place, hehe."
Laffitte smiled, his laughter and expression were always filled with a strange style.
"Then, the next drawing of the sea map and the choice of the route will be left to you for the time being. I will give you the sea map and the compass when I get on the ship."
Ross said as he walked away, while Laffitte and Robin followed him on the left and right.
Walking on the street, all the way unimpeded, even if someone noticed Ross and others, they were shocked and hid on both sides of the street, carefully watching Ross walk by.
Soon.
Ross returned to the ship with Laffitte and Robin and did not encounter any more trouble along the way. Marine's hidden eyes did not dare to jump out and do anything.
… …
More than ten miles away from the island, on a Battleship that was preparing to go to the island, a Marine branch Rear Admiral holding a Den Den Mushi asked with a serious and nervous look:
"How is it, what's the result?!"
"The Double Sword Pirates were wiped out … There was no lose-lose situation. Ghost Hand Ross won a great victory and a strange man followed them on board."
Hearing that Ross had won a great victory and there was no lose-lose situation, the branch Rear Admiral knew that things could not be done and when he heard that a strange man had boarded Ross's ship, he could not help but ask:
"Strange man … Did you take a picture?!"
"It has been taken!"
"Well, submit the picture quickly."
If they can't arrest the Ghost Hand Pirates and the Double Sword Pirates, they have to at least get some intelligence, otherwise, they will not be able to get through the Headquarters.
After hanging up the phone, a Captain next to him whispered to him: "Rear Admiral, do we continue to arrest the Ghost Hand Pirates …"
The Rear Admiral glanced at the Captain next to him with slight annoyance. As a Rear Admiral, he looked at the pirates but did not dare to go over. It was a very shameful thing and this guy asked clearly.
"Stay put for the time being!"
… …
A few days later.
The news that Ross defeated the Double Sword Pirates in the Water Gold sea was published by various newspaper news agencies and spread throughout West Blue with various newspaper broadcasts.
On a route to the Grand Line, the Ghost Shadow Ship was sailing at full speed, and on the deck of the Ghost Shadow Ship, Ross was reading a newspaper thrown down by the news bird.
"Shock! The position of the West Blue's overlord changes again after twists and turns. "
After reading half of it, Ross threw the newspaper into the sea and said helplessly: "What these messy news agencies publish is not much more reliable than what the government publishes."
Robin covered her mouth and chuckled: "It's impossible for them to publish accurate news honestly, but Captain, you have become the focus of various news agencies in West Blue."
Ross shook his head and asked Laffitte, who was observing the wind direction and course at the top of the mast, "What is the wind direction and speed? How long will it take to get to Berros town? "
Berros town.
It is the closest island in the entire West Blue to the Grand Line, similar to East Blue's Loguetown, which can be regarded as the starting island of the Grand Line.
"If there is no accident, with the speed of this ship, we can arrive in a month at most, Captain." Laffitte jumped and floated down from the mast like a piece of paper.
Ross nodded and said, "I'll leave the navigation problem to you."
With Laffitte in charge of navigation, even if it is limited to the job of navigator, it can save Ross a lot of thought and time.
"Captain, don't worry."
Laffitte bowed slightly and smiled as he watched Ross return to the cabin.
Before boarding the ship, his understanding of Ross was limited to all kinds of intelligence and news. In the past few days on board, he has a more detailed understanding of all aspects of Ross and he has become more and more sure that Ross is a Captain worth following.
