"Mr. Issho, you've mistaken me."
"My name is Yundi, not Benedict."
Benedict looked at Fujitora Issho and said with a smile.
His current identity was a very ordinary person's image after using the transformation jutsu.
He wasn't afraid of being recognized.
"Although my eyes are blind, my heart is not."
"Although I don't know how you managed to transform yourself so realistically, no matter how you change, the aura you emit cannot be altered."
"And I am different from others. With a pair of heart eyes, I can see the world clearly and also see what others cannot."
"For instance, the aura you are releasing."
Fujitora Issho pointed at Benedict and said very gently and in detail, "When the Golden Lion Pirates attacked the Xuanwu Navy base, I happened to be traveling in the East Blue."
"I watched that battle."
"And I also remembered your aura."
Benedict smiled as he listened to Fujitora Issho's words.
Many people had watched that battle from the shadows.
And knowing Fujitora's character, he wouldn't stoop to lying.
Therefore, this was true.
Benedict's mind moved, and he directly returned to his original appearance.
"Mr. Issho, your Observation Haki is beyond my imagination."
"So, I'm curious, how far can your Observation Haki cover?"
Benedict lightly clapped his hands and then asked curiously.
After speaking, Benedict formed a hand seal and transformed back into his original appearance.
Benedict could not appear on Gourmet Island and be recognized.
If this got out, it would have a significant impact on Benedict.
After all, the owner of Gourmet Island was one of the Seven Warlords, and the existence of Gourmet Island, due to regulations, indirectly protected the pirates on the island.
Independent and full of personality, highly controversial.
Once people knew he was on Gourmet Island, would he have to take over Gourmet Island?
Benedict himself was unwilling.
Because it was used by the Xuanwu Navy for financial gain and to train soldiers.
"What a marvelous disguise."
"My Observation Haki, because I am blind, can see very, very far. At least covering this island is not a problem."
Fujitora Issho gave a rather vague explanation and said no more.
"I lost, so I'll treat you to a meal at the high-class gourmet restaurant," Benedict said with a light laugh.
Fujitora Issho said nothing, but the smile on his face showed his anticipation for the delicacies in the high-class gourmet restaurant.
"Captain, can I go eat delicious food again?" Perona heard this and immediately ran over impatiently, hugging Benedict's leg and calling out expectantly.
Perona was very young now and very cute.
Similarly, despite her young age, she was an astute and very bold girl.
Originally, he hadn't planned to bring Perona and Brook on this voyage, but they happened to meet when they set out. Perona was very curious about the outside world, and Perona showed her cute side, so he reluctantly agreed.
"Can your stomach hold it?" Benedict picked Perona up, rubbed her round belly with his finger, and said.
Perona covered her stomach, her round eyes looking cute, and said, "I can still eat."
"No share for you!" Benedict casually tossed her aside.
Because of her Ghost-Ghost Fruit, Perona could float in the air, so she tumbled a few times before stopping and landing on Brook's explosion-like hair, angrily saying, "I hate you!"
Fujitora Issho watched Perona's cute appearance from the side and let out a "hahaha" laugh.
A while later, Benedict and the others entered the high-class gourmet restaurant again.
A gourmet set meal was soon placed before Fujitora.
Benedict and the other two watched from the side, while Perona looked at the food with her eyes shining, looking pathetic, wishing she could eat.
"Mr. Issho, what do you think of the Xuanwu Navy?" Benedict asked when Fujitora Issho had eaten most of his meal.
Fujitora took a big bite of the delicious seafood noodles and after a while, he smiled and said, "Very good, and I'm also very interested in your police organization."
"While they are cracking down on pirates, on land, they are also combating criminal organizations and protecting the interests of ordinary citizens. They are a very righteous organization."
"He asked about the Xuanwu Navy, not the police," Perona stared at Fujitora Issho and said indignantly.
Since Fujitora Issho didn't care for the young and didn't share food with her, Perona was very angry and immediately corrected Fujitora Issho's irrelevant answer.
"What a cute and clever little girl." Fujitora Issho hadn't expected Perona to speak up and correct him, which made it difficult for him to feign ignorance.
"Currently, they are still very good. At least, I see their pure justice," Fujitora Issho pondered for a moment and gave an answer.
"Then are you interested in joining us?" Benedict immediately extended an olive branch upon hearing this. "The Navy controlled by the World Government, to put it bluntly, is the sword of the World Government. It's not pure at all."
"I don't deny that some people among them have justice in their hearts, nor do I deny that they have contributed to justice."
"But that's a small portion of people."
"There are many others who have already become corrupt."
Fujitora Issho did not answer for a long time after Benedict finished speaking.
In a large forest, there are all sorts of birds.
It's impossible to force everyone to be honest, kind, and peace-loving.
Profit, status, power, and living space can all change a person.
No matter how kind or peace-loving a person was before, they may eventually be forced into a desperate situation for various reasons and have to become a bad person.
"You don't need to give me an answer now."
"I believe in the justice in Mr. Issho's heart."
"And that you will make a better choice."
Benedict lightly tapped the table, stood up, and prepared to leave, saying, "I value Mr. Issho very much. I hope one day, we can be comrades, not enemies."
Fujitora Issho gripped the hilt of his sword and gently stroked it, saying, "My journey is not yet over."
"I will leave here today and see more."
Fujitora Issho left.
Without any further delay, he left Gourmet Island on a merchant ship to continue his journey.
In fact, Fujitora Issho also had his own aspirations.
If the Xuanwu Navy had not appeared, he would have continued to travel the seas, and perhaps in the future, he would have joined the Navy and contributed his strength to his justice.
However, the appearance of the Xuanwu Navy had also exposed more scandals of the old Navy, causing him to question the old Navy.
But this doubt still needed to be verified.
Therefore, his journey was also an investigation into the Xuanwu Navy and the old Navy.
