Hearing the door open, she saw Rayleigh return.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lost it all again?\" she asked directly, without any hesitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But then she noticed that Rayleigh's expression seemed a little off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What's wrong?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rayleigh sat down at the counter and had Shakky get him a bottle of wine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There might be a little trouble later!\" Rayleigh said, shaking his head after taking a sip.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What trouble?\" Shakky was startled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For Rayleigh to say something like that meant the trouble was definitely not small.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ran into a few people. One of them was Hawkeye.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The so called World's Greatest Swordsman?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shakky also dealt in intelligence, so she naturally knew a lot about Hawkeye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This person is not to be trifled with. Shanks has mentioned him.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rayleigh shook his head slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the casino, the way Hawkeye looked at him was not right.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed like Hawkeye had wanted to make a move right then and there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wait, according to intelligence, Hawkeye is traveling with that Cyrus kid right now. With them is a man who can summon meteorites.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shakky thought for a moment and reminded him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Cyrus? He's a troublesome one too!\" Rayleigh sighed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although he had never met Cyrus, Crocus at Twin Cape had told him about his encounter with Cyrus.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crocus seemed to have said that the man had mentioned his name.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And this Cyrus had fought with two Marine Admirals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man was also a Pirate Hunter no less.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I think I also saw the person you mentioned who could summons meteorites,\" Rayleigh said, thinking of the blind man he had met at the gambling table.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So the news is true. I also received a report that Cyrus landed on Sabaody Archipelago earlier, but it seems he left again,\" Shakky said with a grave tone, lighting a cigarette.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With these three people together, no person or force could ignore them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I just don't know what their purpose is. And Cyrus is a Pirate Hunter, while Hawkeye is a Shichibukai. How did these two end up together?\" Rayleigh said after downing the rest of the wine in one go and setting the bottle down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hawkeye is easy to guess. He likes to challenge other swordsmen to duels. He and Shanks became friends because of their past duels,\" Shakky speculated after a thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That makes some sense!\" Rayleigh nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But this Cyrus hasn't only had contact with Hawkeye. In Alabasta, he probably had contact with Crocodile as well,\" Shakky said, recalling the intelligence she had.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is that so?\" Rayleigh nodded, a thoughtful look in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was finding Cyrus more and more difficult to understand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't forget, he also had contact with Monkey D. Garp before, and more than once,\" Shakky reminded him again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rayleigh was right this time, there might really be trouble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not necessarily. I've been retired for so long. They might just be stopping at Sabaody Archipelago on their way to the New World.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They might come looking for trouble with you. After all, you are the Dark King Rayleigh, the first mate of the former Pirate King!\" Shakky said, looking at Rayleigh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although the information was incomplete, it was now certain that these people would definitely come to find Rayleigh at least once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What would happen then? What happens when pirates meet?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most of the time, they fight first and talk later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sigh, what a pain!\" Rayleigh grumbled, running a hand through his silver-gray hair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But they might not know you're here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as Shakky's voice fell, Rayleigh shot to his feet and turned to look in a certain direction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They're here!\" Rayleigh said, glancing at Shakky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had just said the others didn't know their location, and now they had found them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Where's my sword?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rayleigh glanced at Shakky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shakky pursed her lips, stubbed out her cigarette, and pulled a sword from under the counter, placing it on top.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, the closed bar door was pushed open again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Enel poked his head in. After seeing Rayleigh, he stepped aside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hawkeye, carrying his longsword on his back, walked into the bar, followed by Issho, who ducked his head slightly to enter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Dark King Rayleigh!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, upon seeing Rayleigh, Hawkeye immediately reached back and gripped the hilt of his sword.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you sure you want to fight here? If this place gets destroyed, what if Cyrus can't find this bar when he arrives?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Noticing Hawkeye's movement, Issho spoke up directly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hawkeye froze, turned to look at Issho, then at Rayleigh and finally released his grip on his sword hilt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rayleigh and Shakky, who witnessed this, were both stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'What does that mean? Has Hawkeye joined Cyrus's crew?'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My apologies!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Issho took a few steps forward and came before Rayleigh and Shakky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We need to wait for someone here. We may be disturbing you for a few days,\" Issho said with a serious expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rayleigh and Shakky exchanged a look.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shakky pulled out another cigarette and lit it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And if I say no?\" Shakky said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing her words, Issho's expression didn't change.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you do not permit it, we will wait outside. The meeting place we agreed upon with Cyrus is here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The meeting place is here?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rayleigh released his hand from his sword hilt, looking at Issho with confusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes. When we arrived at Sabaody Archipelago, Cyrus had something to do and told the three of us to go ashore first and come here, to the Rip-off Bar, to assemble here,\" Issho replied, still with a serious look.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wasn't hiding anything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What is your purpose?\" Rayleigh asked, his eyes sizing up Issho before shifting to Enel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Needless to say, Issho and Hawkeye were formidable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the man looking around the bar seemed to be no simple character.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What was the purpose of these people?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That's not for me to say. As for what we're going to do, we'll only know after Cyrus returns.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing Issho's answer, Rayleigh nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I see. Then wait here. But I don't provide lodging.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That's fine. We're not picky. We would just ask for some food and drink, if you please!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Issho smiled at his words, then walked over and sat down opposite Hawkeye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My things aren't cheap!\" Shakky called out. Even powerful guys couldn't break her rules.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No matter. I won a lot of money at the casino these past few days!\" Issho said with a wave and a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as he said this, Rayleigh's expression changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'You're just trying to rub salt in the wound, aren't you?'\u003C\u002Fp>",1183,"2026-06-05T17:57:20.376Z",1,"novelbin.me","2a86cd4512e29d5fcc463e0d6cc6f1d731c82c7e7f90dd35fd989c74b823dace","one-piece-bounty-hunter-king-chapter-166","one-piece-bounty-hunter-king-chapter-164",263,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fone-piece-bounty-hunter-king-cover.jpg"]
