"Who are you?" Buggy looked at the other person warily. There were so many dead people here, but this man was the only one who survived, and he seemed to know something else.
"My name is Alex, don't be nervous... I'm just a lonely pirate."
Alex held the nearly one-meter-long cigarette rod in his hand, put the cigarette holder in the corner of his mouth and took two puffs. He raised his head at a 45-degree angle and blew out the smoke ring. He looked at the ceiling in a daze. Suddenly, the cigarette rod in his hand slid down, and the iron cigarette holder hit his teeth, which were like yellowed ancient porcelain.
"It hurts, it hurts..." He quickly covered his teeth and said vaguely.
"Stop wasting my time." Buggy frowned, "What do you know?"
"Don't be too impetuous. I guess your crew members were captured by that family."
"Shichibukai Donquixote Doflamingo?"
When the other party said this, Buggy thought of the mysterious person who came to invite him last night.
"No, it's not." Alex took another puff of the cigarette holder unhurriedly, "It's One-Eye Family."
"One-Eye Hotel?!" Buggy half-squinted his eyes and asked, "Isn't this the territory of Donquixote Doflamingo? How could it be involved with the One-Eye Family?"
"So, don't be too impetuous... Do you really think this is Shichibukai's territory?"
Buggy was stunned. "Isn't it? That flag..."
"One-Eye Hotel borrowed it from Shichibukai, but they will pay a certain fee every year in exchange. For One-Eye Hotel, a mere amount of wealth can be maintained. The long-term stability of the island allows pirates with treasures to spend their money here, and for Shichibukai, an innocuous flag can harvest a large amount of wealth every year. This kind of cooperation relationship is naturally welcomed by both parties."
"So..." Buggy narrowed his eyes, bent his knees, and shot a transparent slashing air stream at Alex at an extremely fast speed.
The cigarette rod Alex held was rotating in his hand like a fan. With a sudden swing, this slashing airflow was bounced along his cigarette rod to the counter, cutting off one-third of the long hair of the waiter who had been dead for a long time and the glass lying flat on the counter.
Buggy sneered, "I don't believe that an insignificant person would know so much information."
"So, don't be too impetuous, I'm not a person who doesn't care about nervousness..." Alex took the cigarette rod in his hand, put it behind his back, and sighed heavily.
"All the companions who sailed with me died here, and now I am the only one left. For this reason, I disfigured myself and lurked here for eight years to find out all the news... Since you are so worried about the lives of your companions, you should also be able to understand my feelings. My companions were ruthlessly killed, leaving only one person alone here!!"
At the end of the sentence, he roared suddenly.
Buggy took a deep breath and looked at the other party with heavy eyes. "Reveal everything you know."
"Okay, I'll tell you." Alex's face returned to calmness and he said slowly.
"The person in power of the One-Eye Family is World Government Member States Santansidi is currently the most valued minister of the king. Even this island that originally belonged to Santansidi was placed under the name of One-Eye Hotel under the king's instruction and became his private property. In order to prevent This island was destroyed by pirates. One-Eye Hotel cooperated with Donquixote Doflamingo of Shichibukai and borrowed the flag to protect the island in the name of Shichibukai..."
"But One-Eye Family's business is not only to promote the development of the industry here, but also to investigate all the pirates passing through this place. As long as the pirates are somewhat famous, he will use the name of Shichibukai to win over them, and in fact make them his subordinates. If you don't comply, they will use various coercive means to coerce you. Of course, few people will refuse the invitation of 'Shichibukai'. Even if they find out that their allegiance is not to Shichibukai... it will be too late."
Buggy frowned slightly. "You mean because I rejected the invitation of 'Shichibukai' last night, that's why my crew was taken away by the One-Eye Family's people. Their purpose was to make me surrender?"
Alex shook his head. "I can't confirm, but it's very likely, because only the 'insiders' in the hotel have the opportunity to do something and take your crew away quietly, and the name of this hotel is actually called One-Eye Hotel..."
Buggy wanted to ask again, but Mohji's voice came down from upstairs, "Captain Buggy!"
"I probably know your purpose..." Buggy glanced at Alex with a twinkling look and walked upstairs.
"It's really easy to talk to smart people." Alex took a puff in the cigarette holder, blew out a stream of white smoke, and followed.
Back in the room on the second floor, the group of pirates who were originally Jackal Pirates had been tied into a pile with bruises and bruises. It seemed that after some interrogation, Cabaji came up and said, "Captain Buggy, I We have already asked, because Endi lives alone in the room, so these pirates don't know the situation, but one of the pirates said that he saw a mysterious man in black robe walking into Endi's room."
"The man in black robe?" Buggy thought about it in a daze.
Alex, who followed behind, said, "Let me say this, since you rejected One-Eye Family's invitation, the other party's target will naturally shift to the guy named Endi, and ask the jackal Endi to take your head. It proves that he is qualified to join One-Eye Family, but I think his final purpose is to let you passively engage in the battle, and then choose the winning side between the two of you... I have been here for eight years, and this is not the first time I have seen pirates merge, and the winner is the king and the loser..."
"What evidence do you have to prove that what you said One-Eye Family is true, and who was responsible for those dead people downstairs?" Buggy did not completely believe Alex's statement, even though the other party's purpose was obvious.
"You can plunge into the pile of dead people downstairs and take a look. They all have a vertical eye tattoo on their right inner wrist. This is the symbol of the One-Eye Family. If you ask why I know it so well..." Alex pulled away the white clothes on his right hand and turned up his wrist, revealing a gray vertical eye tattoo.
"I am also a member of the One-Eye Family. In order to find the truth about the murder of my partners, I disfigured myself and infiltrated One-Eye Family as a young pirate. After so many years, I finally figured out the information about this family. The members inside have a pyramid structure from bottom to top, respectively. Gray Vertical Eye, who is the most peripheral and has the largest number, Black Vertical Eye, who has the strength of "hundred people" in the middle level, and Red Vertical Eye, who is the top and very few, and above all the vertical eyes is the only person in power, 'One-Eye Hotel'."
After Alex finished speaking in one breath, his tone began to slow down, "Those people downstairs should have been killed by the violent Endi a few hours ago than now. He must have 'accidentally eaten' Alpirosil Gora..."
