If you were to ask how Danitz had been doing lately?
He was really doing great!
Although a few months ago, when he was running around the Five Seas with Gehrman and Wayne, he had once doubted his life, falling from Blazing Danitz, a well-known figure in the Five Seas, to the servant of this master and disciple pair, and was even forced to believe in an evil god, making him feel his life was gray for a time.
But ever since Gehrman and Wayne left the Five Seas, Danitz's life had gotten better. He no longer needed to be tormented; he only needed to complete the various intelligence-gathering missions assigned by Wayne. He even obtained the Conspirer's potion formula and, relying on the Acting Method he learned from Wayne, completely digested the Pyromaniac potion and achieved advancement.
Today, Danitz can proudly pat his chest and say that he is a Sequence 6 powerhouse, a great pirate with a bounty of 5800 pounds, and with a little more effort, he can become a man worthy of his captain.
The only problem was that Danitz felt the progress of his Conspirer potion digestion was too slow. He had been promoted to Sequence 6 for some time, but he still hadn't experienced any noticeable digestion of the potion, as if his digestion progress was stuck.
However, being at the Sequence 6 level, Danitz had long prepared for the Sequence 6 potion to take several years to digest. Plus, he was always big-hearted, so overall, he was still very happy.
This happy life came to an abrupt halt just before the New Year when Danitz received a letter from Wayne.
The content of the letter was simple: besides greetings, the core message was – Gehrman and I are coming to the Five Seas, so be prepared, Danitz!
Danitz: …
Don't you dare come!
But what could Danitz do? Could he refuse an angel? He could only tell this to his captain, then took the letter written by his captain, packed his luggage, and was sent overnight by the Golden Dream to the agreed-upon port to wait.
This wait lasted two days. Danitz's attitude towards the impending reunion with Wayne and Gehrman slowly evolved from anxious, nervous, and resistant to – oh well, so be it!
At worst, he'd be their servant for a while longer. Could he even resist?

And to be honest, besides resistance, Danitz also had some expectations about meeting Wayne and Gehrman.
This was certainly not because he had any masochistic tendencies, but because while Wayne was a tormentor, he was also genuinely generous.
During the time he spent with them, although Danitz was severely persecuted, he also learned many secret pieces of knowledge that normal people could not access at all.
Even though some of this knowledge left Danitz completely half-understanding, what did that matter?
It was good enough that the captain could understand!
Recalling the captain's eyes lighting up when he heard those secret pieces of knowledge, Danitz felt that being tormented by Wayne was nothing.
"I hope Wayne is just as generous this time…" Danitz mumbled inwardly, tightening his clothes, and quietly lit a flame to dispel the inexplicable chill that had appeared on him, then looked up at the passenger ship entering the harbor.
"Finally," he muttered softly, picking up the box beside him with one hand and holding the purchased ticket with the other.
Once the White Agate was fully docked, Danitz walked against the flow of disembarking tourists onto the deck. He looked left and right, searching for familiar targets, and before he found them, he heard a soft "Oh?" from beside him.
"Oh, you are… Blazing Danitz?"
I am not, I did not, don't talk nonsense!
What Blazing Danitz? I clearly disguised myself!
Danitz's body stiffened. If it were normal times, he certainly wouldn't mind being recognized, and might even pull the person who recognized him to drink together and brag a bit.
But the situation was different now; he was going to be a servant. If people found out that the esteemed Blazing Danitz had actually become someone else's servant… Danitz declared that this was absolutely unacceptable.
There had been some rumors about this a few months ago, though they hadn't spread widely and were considered mere gossip. If the same thing happened now… Danitz didn't want to become the laughingstock of the entire Five Seas.
"Friend, you've got the wrong person. Although I look very much like that famous great pirate worth 5800 pounds, I am certainly not him. In fact, I've always been troubled by this, as it causes great inconvenience in my life."
Danitz immediately turned around, smiling as he spoke, while also sizing up the speaker.
The person had shoulder-length silver-white choppy hair and eyes as blue as the sky, currently looking at him with curiosity.
As for his appearance, even though Danitz had seen many handsome people during his years roaming the Five Seas, he had to admit that this person was the best-looking among all the people he had ever seen.
At the same time, Danitz dared to say that this person was definitely not an adventurer or a bounty hunter, because no one who went out adventuring would dress so primly, like a student who hadn't even graduated from university, and most importantly, he carried a distinct scholarly aura.
Danitz's gaze subconsciously swept over the other person's hand, where he could see some calluses on the index finger. Those were not from long-term use of swords or firearms, but clearly from holding a pen.
At the same time, Danitz also saw that the other person's left hand was holding a notebook, and there seemed to be a pen clipped inside it.
So, a college student out for a trip?
Danitz made a judgment in his heart, and at the same time, he breathed a sigh of relief.
It's good that he's not from the same line of work; it wouldn't be so easy to fool someone from the same line.
Just as Danitz was thinking this, he saw the young man in front of him suddenly pull something out of his pocket.
It was a photo cut from a newspaper, and the person in the photo was him.
Danitz: …
Why the hell would you...
The young man held up the photo in front of him, looking at the photo then at him, seemingly comparing them, and muttering as he did so: "This is clearly the same person…"
I'm not angry, not angry… Danitz took a slight breath, forced a smile, and said: "I really just happen to look like him…"
After speaking, Danitz couldn't help but ask: "But you, why do you carry a photo of that great pirate with you? Are you his fan?"
"No!" The young man denied it very decisively. As he spoke, he put away the photo and curled his lips somewhat casually:
"I am Arthur Smith, an ordinary writer looking for material. I carry Danitz's photo because I find some interesting points about him that I want to explore. Maybe it could be very good material."
"Interesting points? What interesting points?" Danitz asked, somewhat confused and instinctively.
"For example, Blazing Danitz seems to have been the maid of a certain adventurer. Don't you think that would be very interesting to write into a book?"
