20 Do You Long For Immortality?

Stussy choked.

Originally, she wanted to use the fox girl as a stepping stone to build a relationship between them, but now that option is directly blocked.

Anyway, the auction was going on in an orderly manner and one item after another was sent up there stage and then auctioned off.

Will and Stussy didn't care much about the auction and instead chatted with each other. 

Soon the two became acquainted, and joked from time to time, which made Stussy laugh in amusement. 

The speed with which they have become friends is staggering.

As for how much water is in this friendship, only they know it themselves.

"Will, don't you want to go to Logue town to watch Roger's execution? It is said that many big names have already arrived there."

Stussy probed casually. 

Will smiled and said, "Of course I'll go there. Just after I came out of Impel down, I encountered such a big event as the execution of the pirate king. I must go there to join in the fun."

"Then what are you doing in New World instead of East Blue?"

Stussy is like a curious kitten, trying to clear the fog surrounding Will.

"Isn't there still some time left before the execution, I should be able to make it in time. "

Will naturally wouldn't tell the other party the truth.

The reason why he played along with her patiently even after knowing her true identity was also for a purpose.

When the trip to East Blue Logue town is over, and considering what he was planning to do there, Will was sure that he will make enemies everywhere.

Naturally, Marine doesn't need to say much and the cp organization is expected to take action against him too. 

Then there is the reaction of the remnants of the Roger Pirates!

And Kozuki Oden was the former second division captain of the Whitebeard Pirates, Whitebeard's sworn brother. So Whitebeard probably won't keep silent about this either. 

In this way, it is estimated that his future power development will be difficult.

At this time, a powerful intelligence network is needed.

And in the world of Pirates, there are only a few powerful intelligence organizations.

One is the intelligence network of Marine, the other is the intelligence network of the world government, that is, the cp organization, and then there is the World Economic News Agency of Morgan. 

Among them, Morgan is the one who is most likely to cooperate with him. 

 

But this guy is too cunning and selfish for his own good, and there is no guarantee at all.

And Will didn't even think about the other two. 

In the final analysis, he still needs to build his own intelligence network!

But he doesn't have any talented subordinates in this area and even if he does, it will take a long time to develop a fully functional intelligence network. 

Because of these reasons it's better to find a ready-made one and borrow a chicken to lay eggs.

And Stussy is a very good target!

It's just that the identity of the other party is there, so it's not so easy to handle.

Chips!

He had to come up with sufficient bargaining chips that's enough for Stussy to betray the CP organization. 

At this time, the waiter who went to bring the Wanokuni permanent pointer finally came back with a box in his hand.

Seeing that Stussy was also there, he couldn't help being surprised and almost threw the box out of his hand in shock. 

At this time, he was no longer as relaxed and casual as before.

He said a little cautiously: "Sorry sir, I kept you waiting for so long!"

But Will didn't care about these small things. 

After taking the box and opening it, Will saw a permanent pointer inside. He took it into his own hands and examined it carefully.

After a few seconds, Will casually asked the waiter: "This is indeed Wanokuni's permanent pointer, right?"

The waiter nodded hurriedly: "Yes, sir, it has been checked!"

"That's good!"

He didn't want to make a trip in vain and delay his important business.

"How many Baileys?"

"100,000!"

After seeing off the waiter, Will prepared to leave. The purpose of this trip has been achieved, and they have to go to Wanokuni for the next step of their plan. 

"Will, are you going to Wanokuni?"

Stussy leaned over to look at the permanent pointer in Will's hands, like a curious baby.

"Well, I heard that there are many beauties there, and they are very obedient and caring. I was planning to go and look for a wife. "

 

"Pooh!"

Stussy spat in feigned anger 

She raised her fists and said angrily, "There is such a beautiful woman in front of you, but you are still thinking about other women?"

"You men are really perverted."

Will: "..."

'Woman...'

Playing with the eternity pointer in his hand, looking at the lively auction scene ahead, the corner of his mouth slightly curled up.

"Stussy, what do you say people desire most?"

Stussy frowned slightly, wondering why Will would ask such a question out of nowhere. 

"Strength?"

Stussy guessed. 

"Only with power can you be qualified to fight for what you want, isn't it?"

Will turned to look at Stussy and said with a smile. 

"Not long ago, I asked the same question to someone else."

"Oh?"

Stussy became interested: "What about his answer?"

"Just like you!"

Stussy pursed her lips slightly: "It seems that person is very smart."

But surprisingly Will shook his head in denial, making her puzzled.

"You don't agree?"

Stussy raised an eyebrow.

"No no, I perfectly agree with what you just said. Strength is the foundation of everything!"

"It's just that you haven't seriously understood my question, or in other words, most people will automatically ignore that answer!"

"So I'll change the question a little bit for you. Stussy, what is your greatest desire?"

He gazed into Stussy's sapphire eyes. 

For some reason, Stussy had a very uncomfortable feeling ever since Will asked that question.

At this moment, the other party raised such a question again.

This feeling is getting stronger.

She felt like she was on the edge of an abyss!

She wanted to avoid the subject.

only...

Stussy stretched out her slender white hand unconsciously, and gently stroked her cheek.

"What do I want most......?"

Stussy unconsciously muttered in her mouth. 

When Will saw her appearance at this moment, a faint smile appeared on his face.

"Returning to the previous topic, since you are finding it difficult, let me answer that question for you."

"What people desire the most is immortality!"

Stussy finally came back to her senses and scoffed at Will's words.

As a member of the cp organization of the world government, she is well aware of how much manpower and material resources Celestial Dragons spend every year in order to find something that can make people live forever.

But have they succeeded? No! 

At least she'd never heard of it anyway.

"As you said, this does not exist in the first place and everyone will naturally ignore this answer."

Stussy said as she once again returned to her calm appearance. 

Will shook his head slightly: "It's not ignoring, but burying this answer in the deepest part of your heart!"

He reached out and stroked Stussy's beautiful face gently.

"Just like you, Stussy, what you desire most is to keep yourself young and beautiful forever!

"You want to control your own destiny. Right ?"

Stussy froze.

At this moment, she seemed to be completely seen through by Will, and there was no more secret at all.

But she calmed down quickly, laughed at her gaffe and said, "Hmph, isn't this normal?"

"Which woman doesn't want to be young and beautiful forever?"

"only..."

Stussy narrowed her eyes slightly: "Will, what do you want to express when you talk to me about this?"

Will's fingers slid down gently to pinch Stussy's chin and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

"Stussy, do you desire immortality?"
