Chapter 89 Aren't you looking for onepiece?
🕑 Added 2025-05-08 10:34:43 +0000 UTCTaking a deep breath, Hawkins calmed himself for a moment before turning around to address his crew.
"Go! Get out of here!" he said, not waiting for a response from his crew.
He walked off alone, heading in the opposite direction from Kronos and the others.
The members of the Hawkins Pirates watched him, confused by his behavior.
However, they didn't ask any questions. After exchanging a few glances, they simply followed Hawkins’ lead.
On the other side, Bonney and Kronos walked side by side, with the Kamui Pirates and Bonney Pirates trailing behind.
Although the group was large, the atmosphere was oddly quiet. The only sound that could be heard was the rhythmic echo of footsteps.
Bonney, leading the way with her head down, remained silent. But inside, she couldn’t help but complain.
'Uh ah~ is no one going to say anything? It's so boring…'
'Are these guys always this serious?'
'No one speaks, not a word, just walking in silence. Don't they get bored?'
While Bonney felt the silence was uncomfortable, she didn’t dare to break it. Now that she was with Kronos, even her habit of eating while walking was suppressed.
One could easily tell how scared Bonney was of Kronos.
Unlike Bonney, Kronos didn’t find the situation strange at all. He didn’t feel bored either. After all, they were just on their way to find a coating craftsman, right?
At the back of the group, Asaq and the others remained in their usual position.
It was then that Asaq heard a familiar voice.
"Assac!"
The sudden shout made Asaq pause for a moment.
He turned his head instinctively and saw a young man of his age giving him a subtle wink.
Asaq recognized the young man immediately; they were both former crew members of the Wright Pirates.
But Asaq didn’t respond. Instead, he turned his head with indifference and ignored the call.
Though they had once been shipmates, their positions were different now.
In his eyes, the captain was a god!
Right now, the captain hadn’t spoken, and neither had any of the official crew members. How could he make a sound?
Furthermore, he couldn’t let such sneaky behavior tarnish the image of the Kamui Pirates!
Passing through two mangrove areas, Bonney, Kronos, and the others reached a small hillside.
To the left, about five or six hundred meters away, was a shipyard. To the right, about three or four hundred meters away, stood a wooden house.
Bonney pointed to the wooden house and said, "The coating artisans I know are there."
Kronos glanced in the direction she was pointing. After a moment, he smiled.
"Then let’s go!"
With that, Kronos began to walk towards the wooden house. But just as he was about to take a step, he suddenly noticed something out of the corner of his eye.
He paused, his gaze turning sideways.
Two rows of men, armed and looking fierce, were marching down the road. In the middle of the group was a line of people shackled together. There weren’t many of them, only about four or five.
But it was one of these prisoners—a silver-haired old man with a scar over his right eye—that caught Kronos’ attention.
Bonney, noticing Kronos' unusual behavior, stopped and followed his gaze with curiosity. For a moment, her curiosity overcame her fear of Kronos, and she decided to speak.
"Those should be kidnapping syndicates."
She glanced at Kronos and then asked, puzzled, "What’s so special about them? Do you know any of the kidnapped people?"
Kronos turned to look at Bonney for a moment before shifting his attention back to the group of kidnappers, specifically focusing on the old man.
"There’s really one I know."
Bonney’s eyes widened in disbelief.
‘This evil star dares to kidnap?!’
Some people murmured in surprise.
After thinking for a moment, Bonney hesitantly asked, "Then… do you want to save him first?"
Kronos smirked, seeming more relaxed. Maybe it was because the problem of the coating craftsman had been taken care of, but his mood seemed lighter.
"Save him? Hehehe, no need," Kronos chuckled.
"In your eyes, he might seem like a bad old man."
"Don’t look at him being kidnapped now, he probably did it on purpose. He’s probably broke and trying to get himself kidnapped by some unlucky gold master. Once he’s bought, he’ll just rob the poor guy."
Bonney was taken aback.
"That’s a really bad old man…" she muttered, ashamed.
Just then, Kronos turned his head with a smile and addressed Bonney.
"Aren’t you looking for One Piece?"
"Why go rescue some old man to buy him drinks? Maybe he’ll tell you something about One Piece."
Bonney's pupils contracted in shock. Her head snapped up, and she stared at Kronos.
"One Piece?!"
