The Replica Magic Starting from Black Four

Chapter 334 Ben Beckman's doubts have already been addressed!

"Shanks?!"

Bucky looked up and saw Shanks, who looked much more mature than before, with stubble and a weathered look on his face. He yelled, "What are you doing here!"

Shanks picked at his ear: "Surprised? I just saved your life, and you didn't even say thank you."

"Damn it, why should I thank you!"

Bucky jumped up, separating his ankles from his upper body, making himself the same height as Shanks, and stared at him.

On the sea!
Shanks, whose very name is enough to strike fear into the hearts of countless great pirates, could only show a helpless expression on his face when faced with Buggy's undisguised displeasure and provocation.

This peculiar scene left the rest of the Red-Haired Pirates in awe.

Many people looked at Bucky with curiosity.

Just from their tone of voice, one could sense that the relationship between Bucky and Shanks was extraordinary. This man named Bucky the Joker was someone the captain had never mentioned before.

at this time!

A chill swept over the area, and the temperature began to drop rapidly.

Bucky felt a chill run down his spine and instinctively glanced behind him. When he saw Aokiji, who was radiating cold energy, his split body immediately shrank back, and a look of fear appeared on his face.

Because he saw Shanks as soon as he opened his eyes, he thought that Shanks had already defeated Aokiji.

"Aren't you planning to leave yet?"

“If you disturb our captain, I won’t hold back.” Ben Beckman, with a cigar in his mouth, looked at Aokiji expressionlessly.

As soon as these words came out!
The rest of the Red-Haired Pirates stared at Aokiji with cold smiles.

Om-!
The collision of these two terrifying auras caused the air to sink!
Bucky shrank back, only then realizing how terrifying the group of people behind Shanks were.

Bucky glanced at Shanks, who had a faint smile on his face the whole time, and a complex mix of envy and displeasure welled up inside him.

The Four Emperors!
He's only one step away from becoming the "Pirate King".

Even though he had been staying in the East Blue, the weakest sea, Buggy was not unaware of Shanks' situation. The difference between the two was already so vast that it could be described as "worlds apart".

Faced with the locking of various auras, Aokiji's gaze lingered on Buggy for a moment, a hint of hesitation in his eyes.

The appearance of Shanks was somewhat unexpected, but Buggy, a small-time pirate from the East Blue, was even more surprising!
Swish!
Mogi's figure appeared out of thin air between the two sides.

The sudden change left the entire Red-Haired Pirates looking surprised.

Despite the presence of Observation Haki, no one could detect the movement of this figure; it was as if it had appeared out of thin air.

"A Devil Fruit ability, is it?" Ben Beckman thought to himself, casually picking up his rifle again and tilting the muzzle slightly.

"It's your captain, Bucky."

Shanks was also momentarily stunned. After seeing what Mugi looked like, he raised his hand with great interest, placed it on Buggy's head, and laughed as he spoke.

"Damn it! Put your hand down!" Bucky yelled angrily, but didn't shake his hand down.

Shanks chuckled awkwardly, lowered his hand, and looked at the man opposite him with great interest, loudly proclaiming, "Your name is Yuki, right? Want to join my pirate crew?"

"Hehehe, the captain is here again."

"That really suits the captain's personality; he invites others to join as soon as he meets them."

"Haha, it's a great honor to be noticed by Captain Shanks."

"........."

A series of noisy laughs rang out from the crew behind Shanks. The crew put away their hostility and looked at Mumu with a hint of curiosity.

"Red-haired Shanks, one of the Four Emperors, is a big shot."

When faced with Shanks' request, Mogi did not answer. Instead, he spoke calmly, seemingly unsurprised by the appearance of the Red-Haired Pirates.

"With Bucky gone, it's time to set sail," Mumu said, turning his gaze to Bucky.

Without the slightest hesitation, Bucky ran quickly toward the tree, and Shanks did not stop him throughout the process.

"They were completely ignored."

Shanks paused noticeably for a moment, then his carefree smile returned. He scratched his head and said with a wry smile,

Ben Beckman narrowed his eyes almost imperceptibly, glancing at Shanks with a hint of doubt.

He saw Bucky running straight back to him.

Muki raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised. He hadn't expected his first meeting with Shanks, one of the Four Emperors, to be so calm.

Since the other party has no intention of obstructing or testing us.

There's no need for Miki to fight against a Yonko-level force at this stage.

As a magical power spread.

In an instant.

Miki and Buggy disappeared without a sound under the watchful eyes of Shanks and the others. At the same time, Aokiji's figure also quickly disappeared during the process.

For a while.

Only the Red-Haired Pirates remained in the entire area.

Yasopp looked excited. "Captain, where should we go next?" "Return, of course."

Shanks ruffled his messy red hair, smiled, and turned around.

"what?"

"what!"

"Captain, you're not joking."

"We've only just arrived in the Sabaody Archipelago."

A cacophony of confused voices rose one after another.

"I've met the people I needed to meet, and I've gotten what I needed."

"Also," Shanks said, opening his palm to reveal a Mystic Eye Cross, then pointing to the sky, "a troublesome fellow is coming."

This magic eye cross is the one that Bucky kept specifically for himself.

However, even Bucky himself didn't notice that what he had hidden in the lining was the Mystic Eyes Cross, which Shanks had taken without him realizing it.

The Red-Haired Pirates crew immediately realized what was going on, then burst into laughter. They clearly knew who Shanks meant by the "troublesome guy."

A group of people, arms around each other's shoulders, laughing and joking, began to leave.

“Shanks?” Ben Beckman, standing next to Shanks, suddenly spoke.

"what happened?"

Shanks looked at Ben Beckman, who had suddenly called out to him, with a puzzled expression.

“Just now… I just felt something should have happened.” Ben Beckman said expressionlessly.

They came here because of the Mystic Eyes Cross's ability to regenerate severed arms, but Ben Beckman knew very well that Shanks was more interested in the brat named Miki than in restoring his arm.

However, the meeting between the two sides just now was too calm, which is not quite in line with Shanks' character.

"I've already fought him."

"He's quite a remarkable kid. Bucky has certainly found a formidable captain."

Shanks extended a finger, slightly bent it, pointed to his head, and smiled mysteriously.

"Huh?" Ben Beckman was taken aback, then his expression returned to its usual calm: "No wonder you were able to cause such a big commotion, given how you describe me."

Chabaoti Archipelago, Area 45.

The battle between Marianne and her two companions continues.

Aside from the initial burst of power that gave them a certain advantage in the battle, the terrifying magic emanating from Kabaji, Mochi, and Mariannu gradually began to fade over time.

With the return of consciousness, the three of them found themselves in grave danger once again!

Regarding this process.

Mogi was quite satisfied. The three of them had gained the strength to rival the top experts on the sea in such a short time, although they could not maintain it for long.

This is enough to show that the experiment of creating magical artifacts that can grant magical power using the "pages" of the grimoire was much more successful than he had expected.

As for the defects that affect "consciousness", they are not really a problem.

Miki's initial goal was to create a fighting force comparable to that of a Magic Knight Commander in a short period of time.

Swish!
Mogi appeared out of thin air at the port, carrying Buggy, and made a grabbing motion towards the void in front of him with a blank expression.

Space magic activated!

A ripple spreads out from the air where the palm touches.

next moment.

With their magical energy in chaos and in a berserk state, the three members of Mochi were still in their fighting stances when Yumu pulled them directly in front of him.

"Snapped!"

He snapped his fingers lightly.

hum-

Kabaji, Mochi, and Mariannu shuddered, and the immense, yet ultimately superficial, magical power emanating from their bodies vanished instantly.

puff!
puff!
puff!
Marianne and the other two coughed up blood at the same time, their eyes regained their clarity, and they collapsed to their knees, their bodies limp.

"captain……"

Kabaji, Mochi, and Marianne looked at Miki with a mixture of surprise and weakness.

"I was just exhausted. The Magic Eye Cross is gone, it was a gift to them anyway."

"Well, have you witnessed the strength of a true powerhouse on the high seas?"

Miki smiled and looked at the three of them, then said:
"You've done even better than I expected, thank you for your hard work."

Kabaji, Mochi, and Mariannu immediately showed excited expressions.

Whoosh!Whoosh!
A sharp whooshing sound rang out as two figures, one above and one below, rushed swiftly toward them.
