The members of the Blond Hair Pirates, except for Kazu, were all shocked. They never expected that Devil Fruit could do such a thing.
No wonder the Op-Op Fruit can reach an astonishing 5 billion Beli; it's the temptation of immortality!
Well, they were just shocked. With Pure Gold in hand, they would only listen to the talk about the Eternal Youth Surgery and wouldn't be too covetous of it.
It's not like you can be resurrected after death and live forever. If you get cut down, you'll still die, just like Dai Pure Gold.
Luo was somewhat puzzled when he saw that the other party didn't seem as crazy as he had expected.
Don't the members of the Blond Hair Pirates have any greed for the Eternal Youth Surgery?
Wow, that's amazing! So awesome!
Kazu clapped his hands loudly, and what he said sounded very awkward, as if an adult was deliberately trying to fool a child.
Luo felt a little embarrassed. He really wanted to leave right now, but he knew that probably only Kazu could help him.
While the other Four Emperors are also very powerful, Doflamingo has another identity.
That was a former Celestial Dragons.
He valued not only Her Kazi's formidable strength, but also his audacity to defy societal norms and publicly slay Celestial Dragons.
He had heard this news from Donquixote Rosinante, and he didn't believe his benefactor would lie to him.
But it was precisely because of this that he felt even more desperate.
"Boss Kazu, I have only one request: to join forces and head to Dressrosa to defeat Donquixote Doflamingo, one of the Shichibukai."
"Not only my Eternal Youth Surgery, but also all the Donquixote Family's wealth—all of this is yours. Don't you have even the slightest interest?"
Since the lure of immortality isn't strong, let's start with money. After all, it's Doflamingo's money anyway. Let's see if we can fool the Blond Hair Pirates first.
"Hahaha, the wealth of the Donquixote Family?"
"We're already incredibly wealthy; we'll never lack money in this lifetime."
"The only thing that attracts me now is the freedom to live in this world."
Kazu's words made Luo feel that he was in a difficult situation.
free?
It sounds easy on the surface, but Luo felt that this thing was ethereal and elusive. He simply couldn't define what Kazu considered freedom.
Seeing that Luo remained silent, Kazu chuckled twice, feeling that the time was about right. He didn't want to scare the other party away, as that would be a loss.
"To defeat Doflamingo?"
"This is not a difficult task for me."
"However, I'm not interested in the offer you've made."
Luo frowned deeply and quickly asked, "I wonder what the Kazu family head is interested in?"
"I will do my best to accomplish anything that is within my power."
Kazu was waiting for Luo to say those words; he said them himself, so don't blame Kazu for being greedy.
Kazu stared at Law, extended his right hand towards him, and said loudly, " Trafalgar Law, there is only one way for you to cooperate with me."
"Come be my crew member. I think you're a pretty good guy, and I happen to need a ship's doctor."
" Devil Fruit User is a perfect match for our Blond Hair Pirates."
This unexpected invitation to board the ship caught Luo and his companions completely off guard.
"You want me to be the ship's doctor for the Blond Hair Pirates?"
Luo never expected that once the other party spoke, it would have been fine, but once they did, it would have been a complete disaster for him.
But now that things have come to this, he has nothing else to offer.
Luo turned around and looked at Penguin and Shachi, and their adorable pet Bepo.
"Captain, you..."
" Bepo, don't say anything more, respect the captain's decision."
"Yes, Bepo, we've been mentally prepared for all sorts of things along the way, haven't we?"
When Bepo heard what Penguin and Shachi said, he could only nod obediently, looking at the captain's figure with his little eyes, tears welling up in his eyes, but he wouldn't let them fall.
"My friends, you all know my feelings. I will definitely avenge this."
Please forgive my selfish decision.
There was a hint of reluctance in Luo's voice, but it seemed minor compared to the hatred in his heart.
After all, they had only been at sea together for a few months, and their relationship wasn't as deep as it was in the original story.
The only thing that made Luo feel guilty was that the other party was willing to accompany him on his adventure into the New World's oceans, but he could no longer adventure with them.
Luo bowed to Penguin and the others to express his apology.
Then, turning to Kazu, he said, " Kazu, I'm willing to join your Blond Hair Pirates and become their ship's doctor."
"However, I hope the captain can safely return my brothers to the North Blue."
"The seas of the New World are too dangerous for them right now; I cannot abandon them for their own comfort."
Kazu grinned and readily agreed, "Haha, no problem, leave it to me."
"I'm glad you think that way. There's nothing shameful about remembering your former comrades."
