The whole place was silent.
Except for Hawkins, no one else could even make a sound.
And on the face of the Supernova Hawkins, drops of cold sweat were seeping out at this moment.
Such an absolutely powerful aura...
Since it has come to this, let's do a divination first.
Orin did not have the intention to attack directly, because he was still quite interested in these strange abilities, especially this kind of method that could predict the future.
He sat casually in front of Bonney's table and picked up a slice of pizza to eat casually.
However, looking up and seeing Bonney sitting on the table with her legs spread wide casually, his face looked a bit helpless.
"A girl shouldn't be so wild~"
Under Bonney's gaze that seemed about to spew fire, he snapped his fingers.
Just like arranging a toy casually, he made her appear on the chair beside him, and in a very lady-like posture at that.
After doing all this, he continued eating the pizza in his hand, while looking at Hawkins whose face was sweating incessantly.
At this moment, although Hawkins had cold sweat on his face, he was still considered calm. After all, he firmly believed in his divination results.
If it showed he wouldn't die, then even if a Marine Admiral and a Yonko were in front of him, his expression wouldn't change.
But the result of this divination obviously surprised him a bit.
His pupils trembled as he looked at the few cards in his hand.
Especially two of them.
He actually divined two contradictory results at the same time?!!!
Orin tilted his head casually.
"How is it? Have you predicted your date of death~"
"Hmm..."
Hawkins faced it calmly.
"Probability of victory 0%."
"Probability of defeat 100%."
"Probability of escape 0%."
And then there were those two most bizarre results. Hawkins hesitated a bit, but still said expressionlessly:
"Probability of death 0%."
"Probability of survival 0%."
Reasonably speaking, these two probabilities were always complementary when Hawkins divined in the past.
If one was high, the other would inevitably be low.
Now that survival and death are both 0%, does it mean he will inevitably become a half-dead vegetable?
"Sure enough, it's very accurate..."
However, what surprised Hawkins was that this mysterious and powerful man in front of him seemed very satisfied with this divination result.
"Hawkins, your ability is very interesting. Come and be my subordinate."
Orin had actually anticipated this probability, because before Hawkins divined, he had already prepared himself mentally.
If the other party divined a 100% death rate, he would let the other party off.
If the other party divined a probability of survival, he would kill the other party.
The main idea was to explore a paradox, but wonderfully, Hawkins' divination result seemed to have even predicted his thoughts.
Thus giving such an incredibly contradictory probability of life and death.
Hawkins fell silent.
Because the gap between him and the man in front of him had become a vast abyss that could be felt even without making a move.
"Probability of survival after refusal..."
Hawkins subconsciously wanted to divine it, but with a snap of fingers, all the cards turned into flying ash.
"I know, you know..."
Orin actually had quite a lot of favorability towards Hawkins from the beginning. It wasn't just that his appearance and fashion sense looked pleasing to the eye.
It was that after joining Kaido's camp and discovering that only he had truly submitted, while the other Supernovas hadn't changed their ambitions and dreams at all, after feeling despair in his heart,
He decided not to be a traitor again and fought until death.
He really appreciated this young man, Hawkins.
After all, he is not Kaido; he won't be defeated by some so-called Luffy-Law-Kid alliance.
"..."
Hawkins was silent.
And Orin knew why.
Because he still had the same thing as Luffy, Kid, and others...
Something called ambition.
He was afraid, afraid that he would regret today's submission in the future, afraid that the lost ambition would never return.
But Orin knew very well.
It would be better for him to subdue Hawkins.
"Well... given my appreciation for your ability, if you are interested, just follow me."
Orin wiped his mouth and then stood up.
His tall figure blocked all the sunlight.
Standing in front of Hawkins, accepting the upward gaze of his trembling eyes.
"Watch how I crush the dreams of the ambitious people in the world into slag, it won't be too late for you to make a decision then."
Hawkins looked at the tall man in front of him.
Somehow, a desire to submit truly spawned deep in his heart.
Intuition told him that perhaps this man really could not be defeated.
"...I'll wait and see."
After saying this sentence, Hawkins seemed to have made up his mind and followed behind Orin.
Then he saw the man in front of him snap his fingers lightly, and everything around seemed to return to normal.
The world was no longer quiet.
"You are Orin, right!!!"
As a result, just as things returned to normal, Bonney, who was originally in a lady-like state, immediately stood up and glared angrily at Orin in front of her.
"Give my papa back to me!!!"
And hearing this name, everyone in the tavern who had returned to normal froze in place at this time.
Including Hawkins who had just submitted, and the Bege gang eating in the corner.
"Orin..."
"Could it be that one!!!"
There were pirates with knowledge who immediately spoke out Orin's title.
"It's that top Celestial Dragon who destroyed the entire Marineford at the age of fifteen, defeated all the Emperors of the Sea single-handedly, and beheaded a Celestial Dragon... The man with a bounty of 4,049,000,000 Belly!!!"
Hearing this string of achievements that one wouldn't even dare to dream of, Hawkins was completely dumbfounded.
Those things that person said...
Are they really things a human can do?
"Sorry, Bonney, I still have to borrow Kuma for a while."
Orin smiled faintly, but there was no look of apology on his face.
Bonney was immediately furious.
She hadn't seen her father once in so many years. Every time she said she wanted her papa, Ginny would tell her that Kuma was helping Orin-san,
So she had held a great grudge against Orin since she was young, thinking that he was the one who snatched away her father.
By chance, while Ginny was busy with the Revolutionary Army's affairs, Bonney resolutely chose to set sail, then became a Supernova and came to the Sabaody Archipelago.
Just to find Kuma.
But she didn't expect to encounter Orin, this "main culprit," here ahead of time.
She immediately charged.
"Go turn into a child and repent!!!"
Carrying a strange power in her hand, Bonney charged towards Orin's figure. The Age-Age Fruit, a heaven-defying Paramecia fruit that can change age and state.
Orin did not dodge or evade, and directly took this hit, neutralizing a part of the power with Haki slightly.
"Forget about turning into a child... But turning into a young man to fight you guys, might be a bit more interesting."
