Chapter 569 It’s my heartbeat
Shanks smiled slightly when he heard Katakuri's plan. He shook the wine flask in his hand and said softly,
"Go home... Yes, everyone needs a home."
As he spoke, Shanks took out a light blue pear-shaped devil fruit from his arms, tossed it in his hand, and thought to himself,
"I wonder if my father, whom I've never met, will like this gift. Well, who cares!"
At this time, Buggy's upper body floated by. He noticed the devil fruit in Shanks' hand, leaned closer and shouted,
"Oh? Isn't this a devil fruit? Damn, I get angry when I see this thing. If it weren't for you, I don't know how many treasures sunk to the bottom of the sea I would have found! My treasure, wuwuwu..."
Buggy drank a lot of wine, and his face was almost as red as his nose. A strong smell of alcohol gushed out of his mouth. Shanks didn't care. Instead, he smiled and stretched out his arm to Buggy's neck, pulled him to his side, and laughed,
"Bucky, it's been so many years, and you're still thinking about your treasure? We've even seen the legendary great treasure, so you should at least open up a little bit!"
"Tsk! How can that be considered a secret treasure? A few lines of broken words plus an empty box, stop kidding! This is not what I pursue, you bastard!"
"Haha, for me, sailing on the sea with a group of like-minded companions and experiencing all kinds of new things is the greatest treasure. I have no regrets."
Bucky curled his lips in disdain.
"It's the same thing again. If you don't have the Pirate Soul, you'd better go home and hug your child!"
"Yeah, that's what I meant. But Buggy, you're not going to be a pirate anymore, are you? I'm telling you, with my big brother around, life as a pirate will only get harder and harder. You never know when you'll be caught again!"
"Asshole! You're such a badass, are you cursing me? Use your brain, can't I just change my identity? At most I can just spend some time to register as an adventurer!"
"what?"
Shanks tilted his head back, feeling somewhat amused.
"Bucky, it's already extremely rare that your resume can be released. Do you still want to register as a formal adventurer? It's good enough that the World Government doesn't take you back to the Undersea Prison!"
"What about you? What are you in charge of? You are from the Fegarando family. Is there any force in the world stronger than the Fegarando family? What the World Government decides is up to your family!"
"So you want me to help you? I can't make the decision on this matter. I have to consult my eldest brother. Besides, Buggy, were you begging for help just now? I won't help you with this attitude."
"... Shanks, we have been companions for many years, so please do me a favor. You know, I don't have any other pursuits in my life. I just like to find treasures. If I lose all hope, I might as well die!"
Shanks crossed his arms and looked at Buggy in front of him. After thinking for a moment, he said,
"Bucky, you are actually quite pure. Okay, I will tell my eldest brother about this when I return to the family. Whether he agrees or not is beyond my control."
When Buggy heard this, he was overjoyed. He rolled his eyes and said in a flattering manner,
"Shanks, I have always believed in you. Your face works everywhere!"
It can be said that Buggy is worthy of being a person who grew up with Shanks. These words can be said to be accurately poked at Shanks' heart. Shanks immediately patted his chest and laughed,
"Of course! Who dares not to give me, Shanks, face? I......"
Before Shanks could finish his words, a voice sounded faintly from behind.
"What's wrong with you?"
Shanks, who was a little too proud of himself, almost blurted out,
"I chopped him off with a knife!"
As soon as the words fell, an eerie silence suddenly appeared on the entire deck, so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
Shanks blinked twice and finally realized something was wrong. Buggy in front of him had his eyes almost popping out of his sockets, his chin almost dropped to the ground, and his face was full of fear.
Looking at his companions around him, each of them was looking at him with complicated eyes. Beckman put his hand on his forehead and sighed.
"What an idiot!"
Only then did Shanks realize that the voice just now was so familiar, so familiar that it made his heart tremble, and then his body began to tremble as well.
He forced a smile that was uglier than crying and slowly turned his head. Sure enough, his good brother, Jiger, was standing not far away, with his arms folded, looking at him leisurely.
"Big, big brother, you are here?"
Jiger curled his lips, raised his foot and walked slowly towards Shanks, saying as he walked,
"Well, it seems that you are in a very good mood today. I am also very happy to see you. But what you said just now made me a little confused. I remember that the devil fruit I gave you was not a face fruit, right?"
Shanks' mouth twitched twice, he raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his head, and forced a smile.
"Of course not. The fruit that Big Brother gave me is a top-level mythical beast fruit. I am extremely grateful for that!"
“Oh, really…”
As he spoke, Zig had already walked in front of Shanks, who was still sitting cross-legged on the ground. Zig put his hands in his trouser pockets, bent his upper body slightly, and looked down at Shanks with a half-smile.
A feeling of oppression coming from the blood came over him. Shanks swallowed his saliva, pushed the floor with one hand and was about to stand up, but was pressed on the shoulder by Zigg again, and sat back on the ground with a thud.
Jiger chuckled.
"My dear brother, why are you so nervous?"
"Brother, I'm not nervous..."
"That's not right. If you're not nervous, why are you breathing so heavily? And your heartbeat is so pounding that it sounds like your heart is about to jump out of your chest. Do you have a heart problem? That can't be right. Come, let me take a look at you."
As he spoke, Zig stretched out a hand with a smile and slowly reached out to Shanks' left chest. Shanks blinked his eyes. The next second, a scene that shocked everyone appeared. Zig's hand reached into Shanks' chest cavity as if it were nothing.
Jiger flicked his finger inside and Shanks immediately jumped up from the ground as if his butt was on fire. This time Jiger did not stop him. He just glanced at Shanks and said unhappily,
"How about it? Do you feel the excitement? Good boy, you have really grown up. You even want to chop off your elder brother!"
