You need to install libglib2.0-dev and python3-dev before:

sudo apt-get install libglib2.0-dev python3-dev

What part of the diagnostic message did you find unclear?

Did you consider ensuring writable self-owned files by doing sudo chown -R isozyesil /Users/isozyesil/Library/Caches/pip ?

Did you consider sudo pip install bluepy ?

For python 2.X this:

$ sudo apt-get install python-pip libglib2.0-dev
$ sudo pip install bluepy

to install dependencies and bluepy.

If you're intending to use it with python3.x use pip3 to install.
