Pirate General Smoke

"Teacher Zefa."

As soon as Smoker landed on the ground, he said hello calmly with some anxiety.

Although I was convinced before that ordinary Haki can't detect the Devil Fruit in his belly, this feeling of "guilty conscience" is still indispensable.

"Well, did you bring the cigar tree roots?"

Unexpectedly, Zefa did not ask him about any hunting. Instead, he swept his empty hands and asked about the cigar tree with a smile.

Smoker couldn't help but feel relieved when he heard that Zefa didn't seem to find anything.

"This...hehe...teacher, I forgot~" Smoker rubbed his hands in embarrassment, then paused and said, "I forgot to ask the teacher about the direction of the cigar tree when we set off... So I didn’t find it.”

Zefa heard Smoker's excuse and said puzzledly: "Have you not been to the top of the mountain in the center of the forest? How come you haven't seen it?"

"What, teacher, he knows that I have been to the top of the mountain"

Smoker's heart skipped a beat when he heard Teacher Zefa suddenly mention the top of the mountain.Yes, how could Teacher Zefa let these students, who are all 14 years old, take risks in such a dangerous environment without any safety measures?

Could it be that Mr. Zefa already knows about the Devil Fruit, and now he is just testing me? Smoker couldn't make up his mind. He looked at Mr. Zefa's eyes slightly, trying to figure it out. Some clues.

But what is frustrating is that Teacher Zefa is still wearing those sunglasses. You can only tell the difference~

"Well... I did reach the top of the central mountain in order to chase a big bird, but it was a bare area and there were no trees... those trees."

Smoker tried to organize his words while describing the environment on the top of the mountain, but as he went on, his tone became more and more uncertain, because at some point, those trees gradually emerged in his mind, which he described as "Old Man's" dead tree.

"Hmph, have you remembered?"

Zefa took out a cigar from his arms, lit it for himself, and then puffed out the smoke with great skill. Kenshin went to get it.”

"Teacher Zefa, thank you." After hearing this, Smoker immediately reacted and thanked him gratefully.He didn't believe that Zefa would send a dignified major general from the Navy Headquarters to the top of the mountain just for those "cigar branches".

At the same time, I finally understood why Teacher Zefa knew that he had been to the top of the mountain.And judging from the fact that the other party hasn't talked about Devil Fruit for a long time, it's not like he was being monitored 360 degrees without blind spots.

However, this also made Smoker feel guilty about Zefa. Of course, he saw and remembered Zefa's respect and protection for him.But he actually acted like he didn't trust the other party, which was indeed a bit of a jerk.

But he had no regrets, and he would not immediately take out the Devil Fruit and notes out of guilt, and hand them over to Zefa.

"Humph, son... Since you didn't bring back the cigar tree roots as promised, you won't have any share in the cigars when they are ready in two weeks." Zefa said after being influenced by Smog.

"Ah, why is this like this?"

Hearing that the "blood bottle" that could replenish his physical strength was no longer available to him, Smoker looked at Zefa with pain, his eyes full of resentment~

Seeing this guy looking at him with such goosebump-inducing eyes, Zefa waved his hand and knocked Smoker on the head: "You don't even have any hair on your head, why are you smoking?"

"You weren't like this before...hiss~" Just when Smoker protested against Zefa's repeated remarks, a very familiar pain suddenly came from his waist. Looking back, he saw that it was indeed the work of this girl.

"It hurts...it hurts, Tina, let go, let go quickly"

Well, it actually doesn’t hurt that much. After all, this girl’s strength is limited and she’s not really cruel. But at this time, if you don’t show off,

Otherwise, it will become more troublesome

"Humph, Tina is angry." Tina retracted her hand and said angrily with her hands on her waist.

Gion, who was standing aside, looked at the interesting interaction between Tina and Smog, and suddenly felt that his somewhat depressed mood seemed to have dissipated a lot, and a slight smile appeared on his face.

"What's wrong, Tina, who offended you?"

Tina pointed at Smoker: "Hmph, Smoker made Tina angry~"

Hearing Tina's words, Smoker scratched his head, wondering when he had offended her and he had just come back.

"Haha, just now when you were flying in the air, Tina called you, but you left without answering."

Gion saw Smoker's eyes full of doubts, and finally couldn't help but interjected.

"That's right, Tina called you, you idiot ignored Tina~ Are you wrong?" Tina nodded in agreement.

So that's it. Smoker understood what was going on. When he came here before, he seemed to be in a state of thinking about life, but this kind of thing is difficult to explain.

Smoker apologized to Tina, and then changed the topic very stiffly.

"So, how's your hunting going?"

Gion and Tina looked at each other but didn't reply. Now Smoker understood, it must be a bad separation~

"Gion and Tina captured a "Bread Lion"." At this moment Zefa suddenly said.

"Bread Lion"

Smoker looked back at Zefa in confusion, and then found that the other person was pointing in a direction. He turned around and looked according to the instructions, and soon saw the true face of the so-called "Bread Lion".

At this time, a group of sailors in the distance were carrying strangely shaped and different-sized animal carcasses into the warship on large carts under the command of officers.Among them, there is one who is about two meters long and has light yellow hair. The overall appearance looks similar to the lion in the previous life, but the side hairs are trumpet-shaped solid egg yolk.

"The bread lion is a social creature, with a body length of two meters, a height of four meters, and a weight of 420 kilograms. Its mane is made of high-grade sponge cake, which tastes very good. At the same time, they use their mane as a loudspeaker to make sounds from their mouths. Shockwave.”

"Their meat is very hard, but after being grilled, it becomes soft and has a strong cake flavor. It is delicious for those who like desserts."

Just then Kenshin looked at the "Bread Lion", swallowed, and then introduced with emotion that he likes sweets very much...

"social"

Smoker didn't pay attention to anything else during this introduction. Instead, he was greatly surprised by the word "living in groups" at the beginning.

"Tina, are you okay?" Smoker looked at Tina worriedly. If the lion was a single one, there would definitely be no problem, but once the number increased, it would definitely not be something the two girls could handle. After all, now Tina can't quickly bind multiple targets.

"It's okay, Tina and Gion were both saved by Mr. Colonel, otherwise something would have really happened~" Tina pointed to the navy who was standing nearby but remained silent all the time, and said aggrievedly Said to Smoker.

Sure enough, Teacher Zefa arranged for a master to protect each group secretly. Smoker looked at the tall man wearing a coat of justice and holding the title of colonel.

Then when he walked to the opposite side, Smoker suddenly lowered his head and bowed.

"As the leader of the elite squad, I would like to thank you for your rescue and express my heartfelt gratitude to all the navy who secretly protect you."

This scene was witnessed by everyone around, including the other students who had come to join the group. At this moment, because of Smoker's bow, he was completely recognized by all the students and firmly established himself as "squad leader".

Even Gaspard and Shi Gamble, who had a bad relationship with Smoker, did not refuse Smoker to represent them at this moment...
