Under Shaya's expectant gaze, Red Hair, full of enthusiasm, was about to walk into the giant door, but... he was directly pulled back by Beckman.
Beckman inadvertently glanced at the sitting Shaya and said, "Shanks, Hawkeye has been found. Aren't you going to have a good talk with him?"
Perhaps Red Hair didn't notice, but Beckman was observant and carefully noticed that Shaya was too abnormal.
Just now, it was clearly the aura of Hawkeye and Admiral Kizaru fighting, but Shaya was actually at the center of the battlefield, and Red Hair's Haoshoku was terrifying, yet Shaya was completely unharmed.
Most importantly, with so many Admirals arriving, Shaya showed no fear, but instead looked at Red Hair with anticipation?
Anticipating what? Making friends? Becoming a disciple?
Joining the crew? Fighting? Hooking up?
No, none of them!
It was as if he was anticipating Red Hair walking into the great door, which made Beckman extremely vigilant.
"This guy..."
Seeing Beckman's actions, Shaya's heart sank, and he immediately withdrew his gaze.
He was most wary of highly intelligent people like Beckman; clearly, the Pirate World's smartest man lived up to his reputation.
"And!"
Saying that, Beckman looked at Admiral Kizaru, who was watching the show, and said in a deep voice, "I really can't believe that an Admiral Kizaru can remain so calm in front of an entire Four Emperors pirate crew plus the world's strongest swordsman. Did I underestimate you, or are you..."
"...stalling for time, waiting for strong reinforcements?!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Yasopp and the others all raised their weapons and aimed them at Admiral Kizaru.
Pirates and the Marine have always been at odds; some pirates even excitedly wanted to capture Admiral Kizaru!
"Don't misunderstand, I just want to make friends with that person. His strength... is very terrifying."
Admiral Kizaru raised his hands to show he was harmless, directly shifting the topic to Shaya, continuing to stall. Anyway, if he wanted to run, no one could catch him.
Hmm?
This person is... Everyone collectively looked at Shaya, who was sitting calmly inside the tavern. Red Hair also realized something was off; to be so composed under the attention of so many Admirals, he must be a... supreme expert!
And for Admiral Kizaru to seriously call him terrifying, what does that mean?
"Hello, I am Red-Haired Shanks."
Shanks, who loved making friends, laughed heartily and walked towards Shaya, only to have Mihawk move and block his path.
"My Lord does not like to be disturbed, Shanks!"
Everyone: "!!!!!!!"
Red Hair was stunned, Beckman was frozen, Yasopp was dumbfounded... Lucky Roux's chicken leg fell to the ground, his eyes wide!
Everyone was shocked, unable to believe it!
"Terrifying..."
Even Admiral Kizaru's pupils constricted. Before, he had been calling him a new master and pledging loyalty, all as a test.
Hawkeye's silence made Admiral Kizaru think he was just aloof, but he didn't expect it to be true!
This was somewhat fantastical. To make Hawkeye surrender and acknowledge a master? Even if Whitebeard were a hundred times stronger, he couldn't do it!
"Ho ho ho, big news!"
The reporter in the distance also heard this sentence. His eyes were bloodshot with excitement, and his whole body trembled with agitation, making one wonder if he would die from excitement right there.
"Ehehe..."
After a moment of astonishment, Red Hair laughed awkwardly, "It's been a few months, Mihawk, you've actually started telling jokes, though they're a bit cold."
"Shanks, I am fine, please leave!"
Hawkeye looked deeply at Shanks, then turned and respectfully said to Shaya, "My Lord, with matters here concluded, where shall we go next?"
Please leave, Shanks!
I still haven't figured out my Lord's personality. If he were to act against you, not even God could save you!
"How is this possible..."
"Am I dreaming? Hawkeye, he..."
Someone from the Red Hair Pirates was filled with shock, muttering.
That aloof, arrogant Hawkeye, who fought their invincible Captain to a standstill, had actually submitted to someone else.
And his tone was so respectful, even bending his body slightly when speaking!
He was even more respectful than Marco was to Whitebeard, beyond imagination!
"This..."
Red Hair's body trembled, finding it hard to believe.
Perhaps if Hawkeye joined some pirate crew or force, Red Hair would only feel regret.
But Hawkeye's attitude towards Shaya... was so humble it enraged Red Hair.
"Why!"
"Tell me, Mihawk!"
Looking at Mihawk, who was like a subordinate, Red Hair couldn't help but roar in anger, his right hand trembling, his face filled with incomprehension.
The Hawkeye he knew was as arrogant as the bright moon, as powerful as a myth, definitely not this kind of servile weakling!
And the young man in front of him, what right did he have to make Hawkeye so humble?
"He... what right does he have?"
Beckman stared intently at the calm Shaya, even unceremoniously trying to gauge Shaya's strength, but it was like a stone sinking into the mud or the ocean, completely calm.
This made Beckman certain that Shaya's strength was at least greater than his own!
But he didn't believe that Shaya could be stronger than Red Hair, and if he wasn't as strong as Red Hair, what right did he have to make Mihawk submit?!
Facing Red Hair's questioning, Hawkeye was silent for a moment, then continued respectfully, "Sir, we should leave."
"..."
Shaya calmly stood up, his transcendent aura drawing attention, and he didn't even look at Red Hair and the others, walking directly towards the door.
Hmm, Shaya was full of speechlessness!
Damn it, outside the moon is indeed too dangerous!
He casually went to a place and actually encountered an Admiral, and even the entire Four Emperors Pirate crew came. Was his luck really that bad?
"Strength..."
Shaya wasn't afraid of these people attacking him, because no one could instantly kill him, and he was not weaker than anyone, but he was afraid of exposing his strength outside the moon... Before truly becoming invincible, he would absolutely not personally fight anyone with Vice Admiral-level strength or above in the Pirate World.
Because if he couldn't instantly kill them, it would prove that his strength had a limit, which would make people look down on him and make Hawkeye and his subordinates suspicious.
"It's you!"
Hawkeye didn't answer, and Red Hair looked at Shaya with extreme sharpness, a hint of killing intent even flashing in his eyes.
In his heart, Hawkeye would not allow anyone to trample upon him!
And Shaya taking Hawkeye as a subordinate was looking down on Hawkeye, mocking Hawkeye, which Red Hair could not tolerate!
"..."
