People are pirates, the sum of the strength of the kingdom at the beginning!

When Hu Li heard Dick's question, his face immediately became a little panicked.

Before Hu Li could answer, Dick continued: "It's iron~! Right~! Were you in the Navy before?!"

Hearing Dick's continuous inquiries, Huli was silent for a while.

But soon he seemed to be relieved, "That's right~! I used to be in the navy~!" Hu Li answered Dick with affirmative tone.

Hearing Huli's affirmative answer, Dick didn't continue to ask.

"After your voyage is over, are you still planning to continue being a pirate hunter~?"

Dick asked slightly.

"Pirate Hunter~?!"

Hearing Dick's words, Hu Li's eyes revealed a trace of confusion.

"Why don't you come and hang out with me~!"

Dick's words made Hu Li feel a little surprised, "I ~ don't plan to join the Pirates ~!" Hu Li said decisively.

"Pirates~? I didn't say pirates! I never planned to be a pirate!"

"Really~!" Hu Li was even more surprised when he heard Dick's words.

After all, since Roger said that sentence, countless young people have gone to sea and become pirates.

Maybe their original intention is not to be a bad person who burns, kills and loots, but the reality always backfires.

"Do you like Bailey~?" Dick asked inexplicably.

"Berry!!" Hearing that, Huli's eyes began to light up.

"Are you going to hire me~?!"

"Hire~?" Hearing Hu Li's words, Dick was also taken aback.

"That's right~! Long-term employment~!"

Hearing Dick's words, Hu Li smiled, "One hundred thousand miles a month~! In case of emergency~ the price will be calculated separately!" Hu Li said to Dick.

"Okay~! Welcome Mr. Hu Li! I will now hire you to be the imperial guard of my Xuanwu Kingdom!"

"The monthly salary is [-] Berry! The bonus is calculated separately!!"

Dick decisively hired Hu Li to join his Xuanwu Kingdom.

"It's an honor to serve you, my boss Dick!"

[Leaders +1, get a high-quality guard]

[Extract the new leader's talent and get the talent "Krypton Gold Power" (consuming money can greatly improve the strength!)]

[Extract the new leader skills and get the skill "Iron Block" (proficiency: level 5) [the full level of proficiency is 10]! 】

[Obtain the total strength of the new leaders (strength, speed, physique, spirit, soul)]

Just when Huli admitted from the bottom of his heart that he joined the Xuanwu Kingdom, Dick's strength was greatly improved in an instant.

If one day Huli left the Xuanwu Kingdom, or he died in battle while being hired by Dick.

Then Dick would lose the strength increase brought by Huli, but the talents and skills that Dick obtained from Huli would still be retained.

But Dick is confident that Huli will stay in Xuanwu Kingdom willingly.

Hiring him now is only for transition. Dick not only wants to check whether Huli can be trusted.

At the same time, Dick also wanted to see if he had the potential to be cultivated.

Dick can subdue those pirates who have been defeated by him and become a leader.

Even if they have no potential, if the number is sufficient, they can bring a huge increase to Dick's strength.

But Dick didn't want to do that, because those pirates weren't trustworthy.

At the same time, they are too weak, and they can easily die in this perilous sea.

Therefore, if Dick abuses them to become his own subjects, it is definitely not a long-term plan.

Dick also wants to find partners by himself and organize a country that is worth relying on.

This was Dick's plan now, to venture out at sea and make friend after friend.

Of course, this simple idea requires strong strength as a foreshadowing.

Dick also hated the Celestial Dragons, and if Dick was strong enough, he was going to hunt and kill a few Celestial Dragons for fun.

But Dick knew that his current strength was not suitable for being an enemy of the entire world government.

If one day Dick's strength can rival the entire pirate world, then he will definitely do what he wants to do.

Today, Dick got his first partner, the pirate hunter "Tiger Power".

His partner of Dick's choice, and since chosen Dick was prepared to trust him.

Of course, if one day he betrayed himself, Dick would kill him without hesitation.

"I hope there won't be such a day~!" Dick thought as he looked at the honest and strong man with thick eyebrows and big eyes in front of him.

Dick sat on the Merry's sheep's head, and Tiger stood beside him.

The wind from the East China Sea blows over, mixed with the taste of freedom.

Time passed quietly like the sea breeze, "Iron block~!" Dick was practicing the new skills he had acquired recently on the Merry.

When Dick used the "iron block", Hu Li was stunned.

Although Hu Li had a lot of doubts in his heart, but in keeping with the principle of guarding, Hu Li didn't ask too much.

The iron block is one of the six defensive techniques of the Navy, which gathers strength in a strong and strong body, making it as hard as steel.

After training, ordinary swords and guns cannot break through its defenses.

The principle of the iron block is to speed up the blood flow in the body and make its muscles move faster.

Dick's physical body is obviously much stronger than that of ordinary people, and Dick still conducts pressure trials in the deep sea from time to time.

Therefore, Dick quickly raised the proficiency of "Block of Iron" from level 5 to level 6.

At the same time, with Dick and Hu Li escorting the Merry, the caravan led by Ke Fan quickly completed a cross-sea trade.

At the same time, Haier Kefan plans to cooperate with Dick and the others for a long time.

Knowing his plan, Dick did not refuse, because he offered too much.

More importantly, Dick liked Kefan's business ability very much.

Dick was going to pull him into his Xuanwu Kingdom whenever he had the chance, and make him a caravan of his Xuanwu Kingdom.

Dick imagined a lot about the days on the Merry, and he was looking forward to the future more and more.

After Ke Fan's business was temporarily over, Dick left the Merry with Hu Li.

They drove Dick [-] and Dick [-] and sailed quickly in the East China Sea.

In the deep blue sea, two ships visible to the naked eye were speeding.

"Hahaha~! Hahaha~!"

Dick enjoyed the joy of sailing freely in the sea, and Huli experienced keeping up with Dick's speed.

For Dick, it was extremely simple to master the rudder and let the ship sail in the sea.

As if Dick was born for sailing.

Perhaps this is because Dick had previously acquired the sailing talent of the helmsman in the Iron Head Pirates.

But this is not important, what is important is that Huli is really not the material for sailing.

Careful observation reveals that Huli has been left far behind by Dick.

It was Dick waiting for Hu Li deliberately, otherwise he and Dick No. [-] would have been lost in the sea long ago.

Of course, Hu Li's position is Dick's front guard, he is a combatant.

So this small flaw is harmless, after all, not everyone who sails at sea can sail a boat.

Suddenly, Dick, who was galloping, suddenly slowed down.

When Hu Li saw Dick whose speed had slowed down, he immediately felt relieved.

He wiped the sweat from his forehead, then steered the ship very seriously, and followed Dick slowly.

"Hey! Xuanwu!" Dick shouted to the small island in the distance.

Hu Li, who had just followed up, felt a little surprised, "Xuanwu?" Hu Li didn't know who Dick was calling.

However, just when Hu Li was puzzled, a giant sea turtle with a size of [-] meters emerged from the sea.

"Wow~!" The island turtle let out a deafening roar, responding to Dick's call.

"!!!" Hu Li was shocked by the scene in front of him.

The sudden appearance of this giant sea turtle really shocked Hu Li, but soon Hu Li regained his composure.

After all, Huli has seen even bigger Neptunes before.

"This is~?!" Hu Li wondered about the relationship between Dick and this island turtle.

"This is my partner! It's also my kingdom!"

"This way~! Come here~ Xuanwu!"

Dick quickly answered Huli's doubts while calling Xuanwu.

After Xuanwu heard Dick's call, it dragged the entire island on its back and slowly swam towards Dick.

The two Dicks didn't stop either, and they also moved slowly in the direction of Xuanwu.

Soon the two Dicks came in front of Xuanwu. Under Xuanwu's huge size, the two Dicks were like two toys.

Dick took Huli to the small island on Xuanwu's back.

"This is~? Xuanwu Kingdom?!" Hu Li looked at this tiny island and asked Dick in disbelief.

"Why~ no~!" Dick said deeply, looking at the endless sea.

"Tiger Power~! Do you know? We are doing a great cause!"
