Chapter 37: Pierre Crowe Joins the Gang

"I see. Come to think of it, you, who have the ability to kill John in an instant, can no longer be regarded as a member of the younger generation."

Pierrero was filled with emotion.

"Pei~ Young Master is very strong, Young Master is the most powerful, Pei~"

Pepe lay on Piercro's head and said unconvincedly.

"Hmm, hahaha, so what do you mean? Piercro, I don't want to tell you in detail what will happen after you join, just tell me directly whether you want to join or not."

"If I don't join, will I become a dead man like Du Field?"

Pierre Cros suddenly asked Lex, his eyes beneath the mask surprisingly clear, as if death was not a big deal to him.

He was considering the man's courage.

"Pepe will protect you, a fool, Pepe~!"

Pepe's little hand suddenly touched Pierre Crowe's head.

"Haha, how are you going to protect me?"

Pierre Crowe asked the clown dwarf above his head with great interest.

"Pei--please don't kill you, Young Master, Pei!"

Pepe seemed to feel that his method was very effective and should be able to protect Piercro from being killed by Lex, so he smiled with some complacency.

"Hahaha, in order not to embarrass a fool like you, I agree, Lex, oh no, young master!"

Pierrero grinned and looked at Lex on the sofa.

"Uh ha ha ha, just call me Lex."

Lex smiled faintly. Everything went unexpectedly smoothly. Pepe and Piercrott's friendship was surprisingly good, otherwise Lex would have a headache.

"No, you have to call me Young Master, otherwise it will break the rules. I am in the underworld, and there is a certain order of respect and hierarchy that must be followed."

Pierrero insisted.

"You're very good, Pierre Crowe."

Lex looked at the tall man in front of him with a smile on his face.

He admired this tall man very much. He was worthy of being the dark king of the underworld and had a good temperament.

"Then, young master, what do I need to do? Be responsible for the assassin missions of the Hiku Pirates? Oh, yes, I will give you the distribution and account books of my assassin business first. If you need it, I can rearrange it."

No wonder Piercro could become the dark king of the underground world. He was countless times stronger than Du Field next door and he put himself in the right position in an instant.

"Don't bother. I trust you. Continue everything as usual. Don't make any changes to the outside world. Keep my joining secret as long as possible, especially from the government's minions. Don't let them know."

Lex told his plan.

With Pierre's vision and wisdom, he instantly understood that Lex had bigger plans.

"Then, young master, do you need me to introduce you to the other dark kings?"

Pierre Crowe asked tentatively. In the short time they spent together, Lex gave him a mysterious, powerful, and unfathomable feeling, but he was surprisingly trustworthy.

This kind of person is often the enemy's nightmare, and they want to get rid of him as soon as possible, but he is the most reliable supporter for their allies.

"Don't bother, just follow me."

"However, my departure may attract the attention of the government and other forces. This is somewhat contrary to what you said about hiding it from the outside world."

Pierre hesitated for a moment, but finally expressed his doubts.

"Don't worry! Just follow along."

After saying that, a deep blue light emanated from Lex's body, connecting him to another dimension. The concealment of the spatial fruit was definitely the best in Qinghai!

"wear--!"

Pepe grabbed Piercroft's lion-like hair and pulled him towards Lex, as if he was riding a horse. In fact, he was reminding Piercroft that this was Lex's fruit ability, the kind that could allow instant teleportation.

"Hey, Pepe, let go, I know I'm going to the young master's side."

“Uh-huh!”

As the two of them played around, a deep blue glow appeared on their bodies.

Swah——

The three people in the hall disappeared instantly and entered a different space.

"This! Young Master, is this another world? This is too magical. Such a fruit ability is simply unheard of. No wonder a guy as powerful as John was killed instantly."

Pierre Crowe kept looking at the strange blue space around him. It was boundless and like water ripples, constantly emitting blue halos.

It seems to be a phantom space, but in fact it is a transit station between all dimensional spaces.

"Pei! Awesome! We'll be there soon! Pei~!"

Pepe was still above Piercro's head, proudly saying that his young master was the most powerful and no rebuttal was allowed.

"Hmm, haha, this is the Space Fruit. You will slowly understand it after you join me."

Lex controlled the alternate dimension and headed towards the next stop - 'King of Shipping', Umit!

"Yes, young master, I have been wanting to ask a question just now."

"explain."

"That's right, Young Master has always said that I joined you, not the Flying Pirates?"

Pierre Crowe asked tentatively, but it was actually very rude to ask his boss that question.

But there was no way, he also had a bunch of subordinates, they also needed to eat and find a good employer, so Piercro naturally had to consider them.

"Let me tell you this. I will launch an all-out war against the World Government in the near future. The Flying Pirates will only be one of the many participating forces. Do you understand?"

Lex spoke calmly, but his words made Pierre Crowe's scalp tingle!

He was shocked. What did this mean?

I followed the most powerful and influential boss in the sea!

"I understand,... Young Master."

Pierrero swallowed and replied.

Lex, who had been "reading minds" the whole time, smiled knowingly after hearing Piercro's thoughts and continued to rush towards Umit.

Yes, from the first moment he saw Pierre Crowe, Lex's "mind reading" had never stopped, and he had been silently observing Pierre Crowe's inner thoughts.

'Mind reading' is a top-level extension of Observation Haki, an ability that relies purely on talent. Rex's soul was extremely powerful since birth, and later with the blessing of the Space Fruit, it became a natural thing for him to be able to 'read minds'.

However, once the other party knows Lex's ability and has a decent observation Haki, they can effectively guard against it, so Lex rarely tells anyone that he can "read minds".

Lex is actually quite sinister.

The more you get to know Lex, the more you will find that this person is not as calm and open-minded as he seems. You will find that this person is somewhat unfathomable, and what he shows you on a daily basis is just what he wants you to see.

Few people know what the real Lex is like.

The only thing that is certain is that he lives a pure life and just fights for his dreams!

As for the last time he told the five old men of the World Government that he could "read minds", it was just to scare them severely and stop them from sending flies to annoy people all day long.

Moreover, once the underground world is roughly unified, Lex will launch a big, all-out war!

How could Leon Lex's departure to sea be celebrated without a grand ceremony?

Let the whole of Qinghai join in this grand performance!

Killing, chaos, darkness, and riot are the eternal background colors of this ocean.

Dreams, glory, beliefs, and justice are nothing more than beautiful words used to whitewash evil deeds.

After all, live for yourself!

Lex continued to move forward, while Piercro and Monlala Pepe continued to play behind him.
