Daily life as a writer in the world of pirates

xxx

From the second day after Yuanzi and Ace landed in the Seven Waters Capital, the entire appearance of the Seven Waters Capital has undergone tremendous changes.

The most eye-catching ones are the banners hanging high in various waterways and alleys.

[My grandfather who just passed away felt his heart beat faster after watching it. Come and cast your precious vote for the best three-color teacher in the world! 】

[Thank you for the invitation. I am at the Navy branch and on the way to get married. How to make the goddess treat you differently, please be sure to read Part 1 or 2 of Mr. Wuwei's "The Devil, Fourth Young Master, Don't Bite Me"! 】

[Grapevine, Black Knife-sensei’s work is based on Hawkeye himself. Rounding off the votes for Mr. Black Knife, I can also become a great swordsman, aren't you excited? 】

[Let all people suffering from diseases in the world receive encouragement. Why don’t you like the inspirational teacher Yu Ai! 】

["My Years as a Soldier" Teacher Jin Juan's personal experience will show you a different navy! 】

Various banners and slogans are designed to make everyone pay extra attention to the authors they support.

Some of these banners are official, with exclusive slogans formulated for each author, and many are homemade by loyal fans in order to make their favorite teachers stand out from the second round.

In such a strong atmosphere, even Yuanzi and Ace wanted to buy a copy of "Amway Collection 2" and take a look.

The two of them took Blue and rushed to the newspaper office in the outer city. There are people coming and going who are planning to buy books or have already bought books.

Yuanzi can easily tell who everyone supports, because the enthusiastic citizens of Qishui City have directly put the names of the authors they support on their bodies.

The most common one is to tie a headband on your head with the name of the author you support written on it.

However, Yuanzi also saw a man wearing only briefs. There were two big characters "五" and "odor" on the front and back of his underwear.

Wuwei, whose real name is Yuanzi, whose actual identity is Wanzi: Thank you for the invitation, I don’t want such support.

But there are also some ingenious designs that are very cute. They specially made clothes with cheering slogans.

"Red, yellow and blue are the three primary colors of the world. Losing you will make you unhappy!"

"Sour, sweet, bitter, spicy, the five flavors are for you to taste!"

""

Yuanzi kept his mouth wide open all the way, unable to hide his shock: "It's just an author competition, are everyone so excited?"

Ace was wearing a mask, and his voice seemed a bit dull.

"Don't underestimate your influence. In terms of influence alone, you and dad are even equal."

Yuanzi sighed: "This is the power of literature!"

Ace chuckled and lowered his voice: "So you'd better improve your strength as soon as possible."

"Dad's influence and strength are completely matched, but your strength is far lower than your influence."

"Whether it is the navy or the world government, they will attack you first before you grow up."

Yuanzi crossed his arms and looked indifferent: "This author competition is a conspiracy. Even if I knew it was a trap, I would definitely go."

"Why?" Ace was surprised, "I thought you were dressing up like this and no longer planned to participate."

Yuanzi had an inscrutable look on his face and bright eyes: "Would you risk your life for someone or something?"

"I will! I am bound to win the championship prize this time!"

"Well, actually it's also to stop the navy's mouth."

"The huge influence is a double-edged sword, not to mention that I have been recognized as dead by the outside world. If I do not participate at this time and show up again after the end, then the "death time" during which I will be maliciously speculated and manipulated by the Navy public opinion."

After saying that, Yuanzi leaned close to Ace and added in a low voice: "For example, if the navy publicly executes you this time, even if Whitebeard knows that you are safe, he will definitely accept the challenge."

"Whitebeard needs to prove that he is still the most powerful man in the world."

"Otherwise, you will just wait for endless and annoying harassment from various forces."

Ace was a little excited: "Then what's the point of escaping from Impel Down City?"

Yuanzi sighed, how could Ace get into trouble so easily?

Yuanzi had no choice but to analyze it carefully: "First: If you are safe, your pirate group will have no weaknesses. Your partners will have no worries when fighting, and they will not be taken advantage of by the enemy."

"Second: It is impossible for everyone in your pirate group to agree to fight against the navy. Taking this opportunity to eliminate the bad and save the good will also be beneficial to the future development of your pirate group."

"Third: Only we know that after we escape, the navy will make a big embarrassment to the world in two months. This matter is more serious than you think."

"Fourth: There are a lot of new people in the world. Whitebeard just takes this opportunity to show his strength to prevent others from coveting him. You know, too many ants can kill an elephant."

Yuanzi looked serious: "Don't underestimate this war. For the Navy and the Whitebeard Pirates, it is a win-win situation and a lose-lose situation for both sides. The specific situation will only be known after that day."

In addition to mentioning things about them on the first day of playing.

In the next few days, Yuanzi and Ace teamed up with each other and took the sea train to visit several surrounding islands.

Completely throw away all your worries and go shopping, take photos, look for delicious food, act bravely, etc.

It wasn't until Vel'Koz arrived at the Capital of Seven Waters three days later that Ace made contact with the Whitebeard Pirates.

In the end, "Foil" Bista, the captain of the fifth division, and the fishman Namuel, the captain of the eighth division, pretended to go to the fishman country to rescue soldiers, and quietly avoided the navy's eyes. Only two days before the start of the author competition Tian arrived at the capital of seven waters.

The day after Ace left, it was the day before the author competition started.

Luffy and others also hurriedly and slowly arrived at the water city.

The morning before the competition started, World News announced the list of finalists on time.

"Three Colors, Five Flavors, Rain Love, Golden Scroll, Black Knife, Mermaid, Blues, White Dove, Flute, Neptune."

The schedule was very tight. In the afternoon, the authors had to go to the mayor's office to sign and confirm their identity.

Failure to complete the signature will result in the game being forfeited.

Before Yuanzi went out, he used half of his chakra to create a clone, which was exactly what he looked like as a ball.

Five minutes later, Vel'Koz and his clone wearing a panda mask headed to the mayor's office to receive a "resurrection" interview.

Yuanzi continued to pretend to be a boy and walked slowly to the mayor's office.

Blue walked halfway, and Yuanzi suddenly heard a familiar voice.

"Brother, what do you have in this bag? It looks so heavy!"

"It's gold, look."

"Idiot, how could you say it directly!"

It's Luffy and Nami!

Yuanzi's eyes lit up instantly, and she shouted and waved to everyone: "Luffy—Nami—"

Luffy was confused for a moment, then suddenly realized: "Maru——"

Yuanzi immediately rushed forward and covered Luffy's mouth: "Shh, call me Yuanzi."

Yuanzi looked at the sacks behind everyone: "So there is really a golden island?"

Speaking of this, Nami's face was full of pity: "There is really a lot of gold, there is a huge golden clock, and a pure gold pillar. It's a pity that the Meili and the scroll can't fit in it. It's so heartbreaking!"

"Hahaha, it seems that I have gained a lot this time!" Yuanzi said with some doubts, "Gold should be a better store of value. Do you want to exchange it for banknotes?"

Luffy nodded: "Yes, because we need to repair and refit the Merry!"

Luffy pointed three fingers deep: "We need to add three cannons, I think!"

Nami: "We also need to improve the power and other aspects. Both times we were almost caught up by the navy."

Yuanzi nodded: "We have the most powerful shipbuilders in the world here, so we can definitely do it!"

"Then I'll go to the mayor's office to sign my name first, and we'll meet on the Meili later!"

After seeing Luffy and the others, Yuanzi felt like returning home, and couldn't wait to see everyone's adventure on the empty island.

Yuanzi rushed to the inner city as quickly as possible. Unexpectedly, there were so many extra people in the inner city today.

In the flower beds, streets and grass in front of the mayor's office, reporters or citizens gathered in small groups everywhere.

When Yuanzi walked through the middle, he felt like he was being stared through by these pairs of eyes.

The staff stood in a row in the isolation zone and stretched out their hands to stop Yuanzi.

"Sorry, in order to prevent unknown persons from entering, I need you to sign to prove your identity."

Yuanzi wrote "five flavors" with his left hand in confusion.

The staff member who spoke quickly flipped through the photo in his hand and affirmed: "It's me, please come in."

At the same time, Maruko and Velikoz happened to come out of the office.

Yuanzi saw that the group of people who had been chatting casually just now quickly crowded in front of the two of them, asking questions quickly.

"Teacher Sanse, it turns out you are not dead?"

"I heard that Teacher Sanse's second round of manuscripts was handed over to the editor later. So, have you always kept in touch with the editor?"

"Are your disappearance during this period of time to promote your own work?"

"Why are you unwilling to show your true face to others? Could it be that Teacher Sanse is actually dead and you are just a puppet pushed out by the editor?"

""

Even if there were Vel'Koz's colleagues among them, these people were merciless in their words and wanted to dig up a big news.

Body parts, thoughts and actions actually come from oneself.

So despite facing this situation, there is still no panic. Maruko pressed down with both hands and easily controlled the situation.

"First of all, I have passed the identity verification, which is enough to prove that I am Sanse."

"As for the 'death', it is also a fact. As mentioned in the suicide note, I did a dangerous thing and lost contact with the editor because of it. It was not until today that I finally arrived in the Capital of Seven Waters."

"For the second round of manuscripts, I would like to thank a friend of mine who helped me submit the manuscript even when I was in crisis."

The expression of the panda mask has always been a "crooked mouth" expression, but at this moment it is inexplicably sarcastic.

Wanzi smiled and changed the subject: "I can't reveal more details."

"But thanks to this time spent with death, I got good material."

"After this author competition ends, please look forward to my new work "I Became Popular After Inheriting Impel"!"

"Imper, is this the Impel I thought of?"

"Could it be that Teacher Sanse was caught by the navy and sent to prison?"

"Impossible, Teacher Sanse must be dedicated to art and sneaked into Impel to collect materials!"

Not only did the reporters not have their doubts resolved, but they also had more doubts.

Unfortunately, Wanzi had already taken advantage of their surprise and quickly ran away with Vel'Koz.
