In the dim environment, Valbo curled up against the cold and stiff walls. He didn't know where this was, nor did he know what time it was. Since he was betrayed by Cromalimon and Jace, he had been taken to this dark place.

These days, when he was idle, Valbo began to reflect on himself. Of course, he was not awakened. There were not many people in the world who could wake up, but more were stubborn. He walked the road until dark, and did not shed tears without seeing the coffin.

"I should have executed Dalton, that traitor, then, instead of giving him a chance to rebel!"

"I shouldn't have healed those stupid mobs, let them all die!"

...

"Hmph, and, two idiots, Cromalimon and Jace, thought that if I sold me, I could survive?"

Among the many reflections, this one was the only one. Valbo guessed it. It was not that he suddenly became smarter, but that in his way of thinking, Cromalimon and Jace, who could easily treat them, had no loyalty at all. They also participated in the rebellious act of betraying the king. Such people knew too much and must not keep it after losing their value, as it would be bad.

Bang!

The door was opened and there was a light coming in outside. Valbo opened his eyes and immediately shouted, "Damn it, who are you? Let me go out quickly. Do you know who I am? I am King Valbo, one of the franchises of the world government. If something happened to me, the world government will not let me go out!"

"Stop shouting, you will never be able to get out in your life."

The person who walked in was wearing a white coat and followed two guards. He stared at Valbo coldly, with hatred in his eyes and said, "Valbo, I didn't expect that you have today too!"

"Who are you?" Valbo looked at the gray-haired old man.

"It is because of the order from the hunting doctor that my son was beaten to death by the King's Army when he resisted. I had to take my family to escape overseas. Fortunately, God has eyes!"

"So you are a doctor, a damn untouchable, let me go out!" Valbo scolded loudly.

"Let you go out? Do you know what kind of doctor I am? What I am best at is brain surgery, lobotomy! That is, lobe leukotomy!"

The old man stared at Valbo hatefully and said, "Although I wish I could kill you and avenge my children, it is also a happy thing to turn you into an idiot!"

"It's you!" Valbo suddenly remembered who the old man was, he was the former king, his father's chief physician.

“Egas Moniz!”

Agas Moniz is a world-famous brain doctor, even more famous than the genius surgeon Hogubak. It is said that after his treatment, the irritable, irritable, and mentally ill patients, all under him, became docile as sheep.

However, after Valbo's death, Egas Monitz disappeared, and he didn't expect to see him here.

"It turns out that you didn't leave Magdoll, you just hiding your own identity, and you still have your own family. If the families of those patients know about it, you will definitely come back to cause trouble for you. Those patients who have been cured by you have become idiots!"

"Take him to the operating room!" Egas Monitz said coldly.

Valbo, who had sea-roof handcuffs on his body, had no resistance and was carried by two burly guards to a bright operating room and tied to the operating bed.

Under the bright lights, Egas Moniz put on his gloves and walked in.

"Let me go, you damn pariahs, what do you want to do to me?" Valbo struggled in the bed.

"In order to entertain you, I have specially improved my surgery to deal with evil people like you."

"What are you going to do?" Valbo was horrified.

Egas Moniz pulls down the switch on the wall in the operating room.

Sizzle...

On the hospital bed, a blue electric arc rushed up, and Valbo, who was struggling, suddenly twitched all over. When Valbo fainted, Egas Moniz pulled down the switch and took out an awl similar to an ice cone and a hammer from the tool box.

Egas Moniz rudely drilled the awl from the socket through the upper part of his eyeball into Valbo's brain, and his movements were quick and neat.

After the operation, Egas Monitz walked out of the infirm, with a white bearded Vistorm waiting outside, and asked, "How is the operation? You didn't kill him!"

Egas Moniz was one of the doctors from Magneto Island that Gongsi brought back and was recognized by someone.

Because of his achievements in brain medicine, he was recruited by Westorm into his research team, responsible for studying how Lister can control his thinking and consciousness through blood.

"No, the operation is very successful. He will be an idiot in the future. How could Lord Lord be interested in such a scum?" Egas Monitz asked while removing his gloves.

"The Lord is not interested in him, but the devil fruit he eats, the superhuman-type twill fruit. Its characteristic is that the eater can eat anything, become part of the body, or synthesize new things. For example, if he eats iron and copper, he will synthesize a new alloy, and its value in materials is immeasurable," said Wisdom.

Egas Monitz nodded and said, "So make him an idiot!"

"This is just the first step of transformation. The characteristic of the devil fruit host being reborn when he dies. It's a problem. Just kill Valbo directly, and then it will be troublesome to find this fruit. Therefore, we must gradually transform Valbo into a mechanical life form and turn it into our alloy factory!" said Wisdom.

Egas Moniz didn't care about this kind of thing, he was a standard scientist.

...

"Bucky? Is he asking me for something?"

After inspecting the weapons company, Liszt also went to the Fearless Shipyard, cared about the new battleship research of the shipyard, and then took the cargo ship to the Great Route. On the way, he was a little surprised after receiving a call from Clow.

He knew about the Bucky Pirates joining the Pirate Alliance and leaving the East China Sea. Because when the Pirate Alliance attacked Hong Kong, the Bucky Pirates did not take action from beginning to end, so Liszt was too lazy to pursue them and let them leave.

Lister is not the kind of paranoid black or white, and he must beat the pirates to death, because this era is itself an era of maritime hegemony with heroes. It is meaningless to argue alone about the evil of pirates and the justice of the navy.

The Bucky Pirates may have had sins before, but that was before, after working with Liszt, they were quite obedient in the Count Arkham. Their circus contributed laughter and joy to the residents and children of the territory, and also contributed to the tax revenue of the territory. There is no big mistake, so you can turn a blind eye to the past.

In Thriller Bark, Bucky took the microphone and said, "I want to make a deal with you!"

Clow was sitting next to him, drinking coffee gracefully. Bucky contacted him through the Arkham Group's office in Water Capital. After all, Bucky had a contract and was considered his own person, so Clowy naturally helped.

Bucky returned to Qinghai and thought about it, he had to ask Liszt for help.

The guy from Red-haired Shanks was too far away to go to the New World. Moreover, Shanks had no fixed stronghold and was elusive. Few people knew the guy's traces. When Bucky found someone, his subordinates would probably be in a state of silence.

Bucky was still very smart. He did not return to the East China Sea, but directly found an island and arrived at the Water Capital by passenger ship.

The reason why he speculated that the Arkham Group had strongholds in the Great Way was because he had read the news from the World Economic News Agency about the peaceful "breakup" between the Arkham Group and Carrera Shipbuilding Company. Of course, at that time, he was mainly concerned about the high "breakup fee", 5 billion Bailey!

The news that Arkham Group is advancing to a great route is not a secret in the East China Sea. Before Bucky left the East China Sea, it was a buzzing news.

When Bucky returned to Qinghai, he was alone and it was difficult for him to go back to the East China Sea. He thought about it and just went to the Water Capital to try his luck.

Bucky was lucky, and he successfully found the Bat Flag.

"Trade? What kind of transaction?" Liszt asked in confusion. Did Bucky, the European Emperor, find something like gold ore again?

"Gold, a mountain of gold!"

Bucky has been dealing with Lister over the years and knows that if you want to convince Lister, you must have enough benefits.

"You can buy gold from the whole world!" Bucky said exaggeratedly.

Kloe was stunned for a moment and looked at Bucky. When Bucky came over, she looked very embarrassed. Her clothes were torn and wounded, and she was covered in dust. She looked like a person in trouble. Kloe asked someone to prepare food for him, and he was also hungry, as if he had been hungry for several days.

With the eyes that Clow has tempered over the years, Bucky doesn't seem to be lying.

On the other end of the phone, Liszt was also shocked. Has this guy really found a gold mine?

No, according to Bucky's temper, if he finds a gold mine, he will definitely take it alone. What should he do to contact him?

There is a hidden truth!

"Gold? You found gold and dig it yourself. Do you want to share some of me?" Liszt said half-jokingly.

"Yes, how about we scored seven and three points? I scored seven and you scored three points." Bucky immediately said.

Liszt couldn't figure out what routine Bucky was playing, but one thing was certain. Bucky had to look for him and had something to do. Since that was the case, he was confident and said, "No, you dig it yourself, I'm not interested."

As he said that, he hung up the phone.

The reason why Liszt hung up the phone directly was because he didn't know the specific situation of the matter and continued to tease Bucky, and he couldn't find a result. Since Bucky was with Crow, with Crow's IQ, he was basically the same as playing.

So, he just waited for Clow's call.

“Hey…”

Bucky fed her for a while and was so angry that she slapped the table hard.

"Bastard, you actually dare to hang up my phone number."

Clowe at the table asked curiously: "What's going on with the gold you mentioned?"

"It's Sora..." Bucky quickly covered his mouth, stared at Clow vigilantly, and said, "You black cat, don't want to get any information from me."

Clow shrugged slightly and said with a smile: "Empty? What's empty, empty ship?"

"Don't think about it!" Bucky hugged his hands and said proudly: "I won't tell you it's Sky Island!"

"Empty Island?" Clow was stunned.

The proud Bucky's expression was frozen, and then he was like a furry cat, shouting: "No, there is no gold on the empty island!"

Bucky immediately covered her mouth.

"There is gold in Sky Island? If you say that the islands located in the sky are rumored, aren't they stories? They really exist?" Crow asked.

“Woo woo…”

Bucky covered his mouth and shook his head, so he didn't want to talk to Clow.

Clowe nudged his glasses and analyzed: "That is, Sky Island really exists. You just came back from Sky Island? Where is your pirate group? Did it mean that it was destroyed on Sky Island? No, it should be that you encountered danger on Sky Island. Something happened to your subordinates, and only you escaped, so you came to us."

While analyzing, Clow observed Bucky's expression changes. From his expression, Clow basically clarified the context of the incident.

When Bucky saw that Clow was almost talking, he could only let go of his hand and said angrily: "Damn it, I would never come here if I knew you were here. Well, that's right, I took people to the Sky Island and found the gold piled up in mountains. However, there was a guy who called himself a 'god' on the Sky Island and snatched the gold belonging to me. As long as you can grab the gold for me, I can share 40% of you. How about it?"

Liszt waited for Clow's call and said in surprise: "Empty Island? Have Bucky and the others gone to Empty Island?"

Liszt naturally knew about the empty island.

Before establishing the Arkham Work Club, Liszt considered making a fortune in the air island, but it was not done in the end. Firstly, he was in a low position at that time. Not to mention going to the air island, it was difficult to go to the great route. Secondly, it was not like being able to go to the air island. When going to the air island, you either learn from Luffy and others, take the ascending current from the volcanic eruption. Two consequences, all the staff landed on the island, all the staff died, or along other sea routes, only a few of the 100 people who set out could survive.
