They came in.

There was a few seconds of silence on the deck, then a deafening cheer erupted.

"Russell, the Log Pose that Monkey D. Dragon gave us is spinning. We can continue forward," Bucky said, looking at the Log Pose in his hand.

In the Grand Line, the compass is useless; the log is the most important thing, and you can't move an inch without it.

"Wait, let's go over there first."

Russell stood at the bow of the ship, looking towards a distant direction where two towering lighthouses could be faintly seen.

At the entrance to the Grand Line, between the two lighthouses, lies a place called Twin Capes.

"Would there be anyone in a place like that?" Ella also saw the two lighthouses.

"Haha, of course, the old-fashioned guys just liked to find a place to stay anywhere."

Russell remembered that the guy was quite capable.

However, no matter how capable he is, he can't compare to Jabba the Mountain Devourer, who can explore on the bodies of giants.

That guy... heh, he's absolutely amazing!

Chapter 91 Ambitious people are forever young

The Demon Pirates do have a doctor, but they lack a leader to guide the medical team.

Ella and the Snake Mother are undoubtedly combatants.

Pakistan is a navigator.

Grace is a shipwright.

We are indeed still short of a doctor.

Russell remembered that there was a doctor at Twin Cape who had joined Roger's crew and had helped delay Roger's terminal illness for a long time. He was also an old acquaintance of Buggy.

Soon after, the Snard landed at Twin Capes, a place known as the Lighthouse, which is a necessary stop on the way to the Grand Line.

A low wooden house can be seen on the coastline, and a person is lying on a beach chair in front of the house.

The man was wearing a flashy shirt, his gray hair was blowing wildly in the sea breeze, and he was holding a newspaper in his hand.

"This... there really is someone here."

Ella glanced at it, then couldn't help but ask, "Is it from some special race?"

Her hairstyle resembled a flower petal, and if her decorations weren't outlandish, then she must be from a unique mutant race.

"Oh, what race do I look like?" Crocus laughed heartily. "After living all these years, this is the first time someone has said I'm not human. Tell me..."

“You shouldn’t be a special race anymore,” Ella interrupted.

Upon closer examination, no other race can replace the human race.

Crocus suffered a hidden loss.

He's always the one interrupting others, but now he's being interrupted. It's a bit frustrating. No wonder Rayleigh and Jabba used to want to beat him up.

Crocus's gaze fell upon the enormous, black sailing ship that sat not far away. The Snard's hull had smooth, beautiful lines and had clearly been modified by top craftsmen. There was no damage left by naval battles on the ship.

It's like seeing the Euro Jackson from back then.

As the caretaker of Twin Capes, I have to be honest, it's been a long time since I've seen such a nice ship.

"You must have a very good shipwright."

Crocus exclaimed, "Could he be that old Tom's apprentice? I..."

"I'm not."

Grace interrupted again, almost causing Crocus to choke and cough violently.

However, Crocus's previous remark struck a chord with Grace: "The people here are quite pleasant to talk to."

"What people here? This place is nothing more than an old man and a whale," Russell said casually.

Crocus was surprised that the man in front of him knew so much about this place, even though Labu hadn't come out yet.

Moreover, Russell's behavior was nothing like that of a pirate who had just entered the Grand Line.

"Russell the Devil, a guy like you should be in a place like the New World."

Crocus put down his newspaper. "If you came from the East Blue... then your bounty before you entered the Grand Line already surpassed Roger's back then."

He clearly knew Russell's identity.

Upon seeing the newspaper in Crocus's hand, Russell grinned, "Oh, anyone who didn't know better would think you're the King of Newspaper Reading."

Newspaper Reading King?

Crocus's lips twitched; the title didn't sound very ominous.

"As for the bounty you mentioned, that's too vague. The bounties from the two eras are incomparable," Russell laughed.

We're in the Great Pirate Era now, and bounties are always a bit excessive.

Of course, Russell did not think his bounty was excessive; on the contrary, he felt it was not high enough.

“Even so, it’s already quite remarkable,” Crocus said. “So what are you here for? If you’re here to rob me, I don’t have anything of value here.”

He's just an old man.

Before he could finish speaking, a cry of surprise came from the group of pirates behind him, "Uncle Bird? No, it's Uncle Crukas, it really is you!"

"Bucky, it's been a long time."

Crocus's gaze passed over Russell and, sure enough, landed on that iconic red nose. "I thought you'd be with Shanks. Are you planning to follow this man now?"

After all, the crew of the Devil Pirates also became famous along with Russell.

Crocus still remembered Bucky, the intern.

Back then, I was so bold as to cut the white-bearded man's beard.

"Of course! What is Shanks anyway? Does he think he's worthy of my following!"

Bucky shouted, "The wish I couldn't fulfill back on Captain Roger's ship, I'm going to fulfill it with Captain Russell this time!"

He clearly had the chance to go to Laugh Tale, but he missed it because he was sick. Every time he thinks about it, he feels like beating his chest and stamping his feet in regret.

"Wait, how does he know Bucky?" Ella asked, puzzled.

"Ah, this guy was also one of the Pirate King's crew members, allowing Roger, who had an incurable disease, to live a few more years."

Russell stepped forward and glanced at the sea over there.

There is a huge creature in the sea, and he can sense it.

Are they crew members of One Piece again?

Everyone else was very surprised.

After Roger was executed, almost everyone associated with him disappeared. In fact, to prevent Roger's bloodline from being passed down, the World Government secretly eliminated a group of babies born during that period.

I never expected to run into a crew member from One Piece again.

Kukalos waved his hand and looked at Russell, "So you're just passing through here?"

"No, that's not it. I'm short a ship's doctor."

"There is no shortage of good doctors on the Grand Line."

"What I need is a doctor who can extend the life of the Pirate King, who has a terminal illness, by a few more years," Russell grinned. "Why would I want a bad one when I have the best?"

Crocus remained silent for a moment.

He was indeed quite confident in his medical skills; there were very few people in the world who could rival him in medical expertise.

A certain witch who had lived for a very long time possessed remarkable medical skills; he was astonished when he first saw her.

Crocus looked at Russell and said with emotion, "You are also a very ambitious man. We arrived too early. You don't know if Roger was the one they were waiting for."

Russell smirked. "Don't underestimate my ambition. Do you think I only want the treasure of Laugh Tale?"

Crocus paused for a moment, "What else do you want?"

"Of course, it's this world!"

This world?

Crocus hadn't expected this man to have such great ambitions. "Looks like I'm getting old."

"Ambitious people are forever young; aging is no excuse."

Russell turned to Crocus and extended another invitation, "Let's go have some fun in the New World again."

Crocus refused, saying, "I'm old now, my only wish is..."

Before he could finish speaking, Russell grinned and pointed at the sea, "Is that the whale?"

"You know Raab?"

Crocus thought for a moment, after all, Buggy was on his ship, and Buggy must have heard him talk about Laboon a lot when he was with Roger's crew.
