"Are you really, Douglas Barrett?"

The old voice echoed in the darkness, clearly reaching Barrett's ears.

Seeing the person who spoke, the corners of Barrett's mouth rose slightly, raised his legs and walked, and came to the door of this cell.

The burly body suddenly covered the light of the entire cell.

"What do you say?"

"Ryder."

The silver-haired old man in the room was none other than Baloric and Ledfield.

Known as 'Lonely Red', the legendary Red Count.

On his own, he is on an equal footing with Roger and Whitebeard.

On the sea of the old times, the most powerful lone traveler!

Speaking of which, when he was on Roger's ship, Barrett also had a face to face with this lonely strong man.

Whoops!

The chains fell to the ground, rubbing the ground and making a rattling sound.

Ryder got up and walked slowly across from Barrett, looking at him with a pair of calm eyes.

The strong momentum emanating from Barrett's body is like a mountain and a sea.

Even Blackbeard is terrified.

But this terrifying momentum was like a fresh breeze in front of Ryder.

While Barrett looked at Ryder.

The other party is also looking at him.

Ryder's eyes are deep and contain endless vicissitudes.

On the sea of the New World, there is such a rumor.

It is said that Baloli Clyderfield's eyes can see through people's hearts.

Anyone who fights him, as long as he touches it, will be read to remember, find out all their weaknesses, and then easily defeat them.

In Ryder's memory, Barrett in front of him has always been an extremely pure person.

This junior, who is dozens of years younger than him, has perseverance and talent that are rare in the world.

Barrett, who is only fifteen years old, has the strong combat power comparable to Hades Rayleigh.

As a 'challenger', he boarded the Oro Jackson and constantly challenged Roger.

In the battle with the golden lion and whitebeard, Barrett is also often the one who rushes to the front.

He was always fearless of death.

The layers on the body, countless scars, is a witness.

More than twenty years ago, Barrett, who was only twenty-two years old, finally attracted the encirclement and suppression of the naval headquarters.

In order to deal with him alone, the navy launched a demon slaughter order against him, and even Karp and Sengoku also dispatched.

Although Barrett and the Navy engaged in a fierce showdown, fatigue gradually piled up.

When Barrett's physical strength is gradually exhausted by the Demon Slayer Order, the pirates he defeated before also launch a surprise attack, which eventually leads to his defeat and imprisoned in LEVEL6 of Advance City.

In a way, the Navy treated him almost the same as Ryder himself.

Even so, during his two decades in prison, Barrett never stopped exercising himself.

In the face of food shortages, he still grinds himself in prison day after day, year after year, like a machine that never tires.

He is like a freak who was born to fight, to become stronger.

In his life, he had nothing else to think about except experiencing endless blood and fire.

Ryder's eyes can see through people's hearts.

In the twenty years of being in Infinite Hell, he had also observed Barrett's old acquaintance several times.

In these several observations, Barrett's mind was undoubtedly revealed.

Fight, fight, surpass everything....

Conceited, brutal, does not put anyone in the eye.

That's what Barrett had in mind.

But since half a year ago, Ryder was surprised to find that his domineering vision, which can see through people's hearts, can no longer see through Barrett.

There seemed to be some kind of change in this extremely pure man, which Ryder could not know.

Meeting Barrett's oppressive eyes, Ryder spoke.

"I'm curious what happened to you. You don't have the paranoia and madness you used to have, and even your conceited nature seems to converge a lot, and this almost reborn change is not common in this sea. "

It's easy to change, but it's hard to change.

A person's personality, after forming a fixed thought, is extremely difficult to change.

Especially a man like Barrett, who is as determined as iron.

Hearing Ryder's words, the corners of Barrett's mouth hooked, "I just figured out something."

Ryder's eyes flashed with a strange red light, "The last person I couldn't see through was your captain, Roger. "

Captain Roger?"

Barrett's gaze seemed to see Roger many years ago through the thick propulsion city.

I remembered the challenges he launched to Roger, and again and again, he was crushed and defeated by the other party with overwhelming strength.

The corners of his mouth gradually hooked up, grinning, revealing Sen Bai's teeth.

In Ryder's slightly shocked eyes, Barrett said in a voice that contained strong confidence:

"My goal is to surpass Roger and become the strongest!"

"So, it's understandable to do that."

"Beyond Roger?" Ryder's expression was a little complicated, and he seemed to be evoked by Barrett with some distant memories.

At this time, Barrett suddenly extended his index finger.

Under the activation of the ability of the combined fruit, his index finger swirled and wriggled, turning into a stream of particles, recombined, and turned into a key.

Then, under Ryder's somewhat startled gaze, he turned his index finger into the keyhole of the cell and put it into the keyhole of the cell.

In the keyhole, the reconstituted flesh and blood particles quickly found the best position and became the key that matched the keyhole.

"Click!"

With a crisp sound, the heavy stone iron door of the sea tower was crunched and pushed open by Barrett.

Ryder looked at Barrett who walked into the cell, and said lightly:

"Are you sure you want to release me?" We can become enemies.

Barrett looked down at the calm old man and knew what he meant.

Just like he is too fanatical about fighting, too much pursuit of his own strength, and thus trusts no one.

Ryder, who has the ability to see through other people's thoughts, cannot get along with others naturally.

He is a lonely red, forever alone, without a partner, floating alone on the sea.

Like a lonely ghost.

Such two people who do not believe in companions cannot become partners.

If Barrett had the idea of letting Ryder in, then his calculations would have been absolutely frustrated.

Ryder was answered with a crackling click.

"Dang!"

The chains fell to the ground, and Ryder regained his freedom.

Barrett turned and walked out of the cell, leaving Ryder with a heavy, wide back.

"Don't be sentimental."

"I don't need that kind of thing."

"Ryder, you are the proud Red Earl, a man who is equal to Roger and Whitebeard."

"I need you to return to the sea and regain your peak strength..."

Barrett turned his face sideways, and the corner of his mouth tore an exaggerated arc, "Then, I will challenge you again and defeat you!"

Ryder smoothed the folds on the black and white prison uniform, and Shi Shiran walked out of the dark cage, the expression on his face was a little lonely, and he was a little emotional.

"The pinnacle... Is it? I'm afraid it's no longer possible..."

"No! You'll be back at the top! Barrett was categorically determined.

Ryder's sharp pupils shrank, and the calm heart lake of the Dead Sea fluctuated slightly.

But he didn't speak.

It's like waiting for Barrett's follow-up.

"In a place called Sleeping Ancient Town, there is everything you need."
