Pirate's Swordsman

In this way, it wasn't until it got dark and it was close to the scheduled dinner time that Xia Nuo ended the teaching.

As a group of teenage fans reluctantly said goodbye, he took Kidd Kira and others out of the shopping street and rushed to the famous buffet barbecue restaurant they had made an appointment with.

When we arrived, crew members from other groups were already there. As soon as everyone gathered, everyone started to move immediately.

Not to mention, the taste here is indeed worthy of its reputation. Not only is the variety of types dazzling, but the quality of several signature barbecues is also excellent. Even Ivy, who is usually the most reserved when eating, couldn't hold back and stuffed it in one breath. Several large pieces of barbecue.

It's just that the price is a bit expensive. At 80,000 beli per person, it costs more than 3 million beri in total. This level of restaurant is obviously not affordable for ordinary people. Ivy felt distressed for a while because of the debt. She secretly calculated and found that except for Kidd, a big eater with a terrible appetite, the rest of them couldn't even finish their meal.

After eating and drinking, it was already eight or nine o'clock at night. Xia Nuo did not organize any more activities, but arranged for everyone to go to a nearby hotel to rest and wait for the arrival of dawn.

The next morning, Xiano was woken up by a "bang bang bang" knock on the door.

Pressing his somewhat groggy forehead, he looked up at the clock on the wall and found that it was already half past eight. This made him feel a little helpless as he usually got up early to exercise at five in the morning.

Last night, he washed up and went to bed at ten o'clock according to his usual schedule, but he never expected that maybe because he didn't exert much energy today, his bed-choosing habit that had not appeared for a long time relapsed. The pillows and bedding were obviously very soft. However, he was so tormented that he couldn't sleep for several hours. In the end, he tossed and turned, and he didn't know what time it was in the middle of the night before he finally managed to fall asleep.

Yes, I thought my obsessive-compulsive disorder had been relieved. It seems that I will still suffer from it in the future.

After quickly folding the quilt, Xia Nuo got up from the bed and opened the door with thick dark circles under his eyes. Standing outside the door was Ivy. She originally wanted to say something with an excited face, but when she saw Xia Nuo's pale face With a kidney-deficient look on his face, he couldn't help but shudder, covering his mouth and laughing out loud.

"What's so funny? I just didn't sleep well."

Xia Nuo rubbed his hair depressedly and said feebly, "Let's get down to business. Seeing you like this means that the coating has been completed."

"Yeah." Ivy tried hard to keep a straight face, but when she heard Xia Nuo's weak voice, she couldn't help but smile. "It was completed about ten minutes ago. Uncle Kailar called us over. After acceptance, there should be no problem."

“A little faster than expected.”

Xia Nuo muttered, he wished that Kai Lal's progress would be slower this time, so that he could catch up on his sleep.

There was nothing he could do now. Uncle Kailar was still waiting there, so he couldn't wait any longer. After washing his face and sobering up, he hurriedly followed Ivy to the port.

The hull of the Gale was quite large. When it was still dozens of meters away from the coast, Xia Nuo saw his coated boat from a distance. The huge transparent soap bubbles glowed with colorful colors under the refraction of the sun. The head view is quite dreamy.

Kailar was waiting at the nearest pier. When he saw Xia Nuo arriving, he laughed and came forward. He pointed at the coated Gale behind him and said, "How is it? My craftsmanship is not bad."

"It's more than okay, it's simply unsatisfactory." Facing this elder, Xia Nuo did not hesitate to praise him. He gave a thumbs up and said with a smile: "It was only completed at eight o'clock in the morning. With such high efficiency, I'm afraid even those veteran craftsmen who have been in the industry for several years can't compare to you."

"Hehehe, it's just a bit of talent, and that guy Lao Lei taught me well." Kailar was very happy to be praised, his face flushed, and he said proudly, "But, on this Shampoo Island, you still have Don’t tell me, you really can’t find a few coaters who are more efficient than me.”

Xia Nuo nodded repeatedly. From yesterday afternoon to now, including the time for eating, sleeping and resting, it has been less than twenty hours in total. Moreover, Kailar still works alone, which is indeed remarkable.

At this time, the rest of the crew of the Hayate Pirates also arrived. Looking at the Hayate, which had been covered with a dreamy coating, they all made exclamations of surprise. This made Kailar feel more and more comfortable, even unconsciously. Suddenly he changed into a standing position with hands on hips, which is called a pangse.

Xia Nuo looked a little funny, but at the same time he felt relieved. In his opinion, Uncle Kailar's expression was a manifestation of the ordinary life of the coater, and it also represented the knot and trauma of the destruction of the Tado Pirates. , is gradually fading.

People always have to look forward, especially for a person in his fifties who is about to enter old age. He doesn't want Kailar to still have hatred and hatred for the past after ending his career as a pirate and living a secluded life. I couldn't let go of the regret, and finally died in depression.

"Kira."

Xia Nuo turned his head and shouted behind him. Kira immediately understood and gave the thank-you gift that he had prepared at the shopping street to the hands of Kailar. The latter did not shirk and accepted it generously.

"Then it's almost time for us to leave."

At this time, the officers of the Gale Pirates had already begun to organize the crew to board the ship. After Xia Nuo chatted with Kailar for a while, he also stepped onto the deck. Before leaving, he turned around and waved with a smile:

"Uncle Kailar, when we come back from the New World, we will come here to have a drink with you."

"no problem"

Kailar also waved his hand and laughed loudly, "Don't worry, when you bring people back, I will still contract your coating for free."

“That would be better”

Xia Nuo responded with a smile, and suddenly noticed something out of the corner of his eye. He glanced at a street in the distance and saw a dozen teenagers standing there, secretly looking at the place, and the one leading the way was Ka. Wendish saw Xia Nuo looking over and waved excitedly.

"These little guys are really determined to give up." Delump, who was next to him, also noticed this scene and smiled at Xia Nuo: "Captain, it seems that there is no shortage of your fans in the whole world now. , I’m afraid something like this will happen again.”

"It's just a young man's passion. This situation won't last long, so don't worry."

Xia Nuo smiled carelessly and turned back to look in the direction of the port. At this moment, the Gale was gradually moving away. Kailar, who was standing on the dock waving goodbye, had gradually turned into an invisible black dot. .

Seagulls flew over the head, and the warm sea breeze blew on the face. Xia Nuo came to the bow of the ship alone and looked at the sea in the distance quietly, his eyes flickering slightly, thoughtfully.

After a moment, he turned around, faced the eyes that were watching him, nodded slightly, and said in a deep voice:

"Start sinking."

"Yes, Captain"

There was a roar of response on the deck, and the helmsman hurriedly took his position. Then, under the focus of more than forty eyes, the front half of the Gale began to tilt downward, causing the entire hull wrapped in coating to gradually sink under the sea. go.

puff

Huge waves splashed, and the crew members closed their eyes subconsciously. When they opened them again the next second, they saw a blue sky. Without the sky and seabirds, the Gale was just like a deep-sea submarine. Like a shark, it headed towards the deep sea below the Chambord Islands.

At this moment, everyone realized very clearly that they had officially ended the first half of the Great Line and were heading towards the legendary new world.

Excitement, curiosity, apprehension, and even a hint of uneasiness and fear, all kinds of negative emotions mixed in everyone's hearts, causing some subtle changes in the atmosphere on the ship.

However, when they saw the familiar figure on the bow of the ship, still standing there with a calm face admiring the scenery under the sea, this uneasy atmosphere could not help but quietly dissipate, replaced by a deep sense of security. And trust from the bottom of my heart.

So what about the new world? There have been so many hardships and dangers in the past, but my own captain still brought them through it all the way. What's more, everyone on the ship has grown up a lot compared to the beginning. The captain has also become a Shichibukai-level king. existence, even if the future is unknown and full of risks, there is nothing to worry about

Everyone was full of confidence for a while. In order to cope with the upcoming situations, the crew members on duty returned to their posts. Those who had free time also went back to their rooms to rest and wait for their shifts. Only Xiao Luo could not fly out to play. But when he felt bored, he fluttered his wings and came to his master's side, rubbing his chest and acting coquettishly, trying to see if he could earn some dried meat for snacks.

As a result, what his little mind never expected was that just as he was leaning against Xia Nuo's chest, the latter started to tremble all over and opened his eyes suddenly.

"Hey, I accidentally fell asleep just now."

He looked up sleepily and saw that the sea was no longer visible. It was estimated that the Gale had already dived thousands of meters underwater. Xia Nuo immediately realized that he had fallen asleep while standing there because he was too sleepy, and as soon as he fell asleep Just a few minutes.

Turning around, he saw that there was no one on the deck. Xia Nuo scratched his head strangely. When did all these guys enter the cabin?

But that's fine, Xia Nuo felt a little lucky in his heart. If everyone saw him sleeping standing up, it would be very embarrassing. He didn't want his painting style in the future to become similar to that of the Monchi family. Same

"Okay, just go back and catch up on some sleep."

Clapping his hands with satisfaction, Xia Nuo ignored the confused Xiao Luo next to him and went straight to his room. He slept for three or four hours last night, and now that the Gale has successfully completed its dive , that's not a good time to catch up on some sleep, so that you can have the energy to play with your stupid bird.
