Comic series: Starting from Pirates to Cultivate the True Self

"William, take the brothers to clean up the scene. Dorag and I will take these scum back to the branch."

Mo Xingchen flirted with Dragon, turned around and gave William an order, then walked back the way they came. The group of frightened pirates followed the two men obediently.

"Brother, how come you also know swordsmanship?"

"Tsk, I know a lot more. I'm proficient in all eighteen kinds of weapons, and there's also this thing called swordsmanship!"

"Knife skills? Isn't it just sword skills?"

"Tsk, what's wrong with you? You're using a sword, but you insist on calling yourself a swordsman. I guess your brother is too weak now, otherwise I'd let you see how good I am, what a swordsman is!"

"Brother, you were so handsome just now, we were all stunned! Do you think it's too late for me to practice swordplay now?"

"Uh~ I don't think it's possible. This talent requires a very high level of skill! But after practicing for a few years, it should be no problem to bully the noobs."

……

The two of them escorted the pirates back to the branch while chatting idly.

I found that Major General Wilt had already led the team and was waiting at the gate.

"Captain Mo, you are amazing! You cleared the entire illegal area so easily. I wish you a promotion in advance!"

"Hahahaha, Rear Admiral Wilt, you are so kind. Under your leadership, the navy soldiers of the Sabaody Archipelago branch also made great efforts in catching the pirates this time."

"Ahahahaha! It's just a piece of cake from me, not worth mentioning, not worth mentioning! Captain Mo, you've worked hard today, go and dust yourself off first, I'll arrange a banquet to celebrate your victorious return!"

When Wilt heard Mo Xingchen's words which clearly hinted at giving away military merits, he was immediately very happy, and couldn't help but praise Mo Xingchen in his heart for being such a good hand at handling things.

"Well, I should go wash up first. I'll have to trouble the Major General to take care of these pirates."

"Haha, it's a small matter. You go first."

Mo Xingchen took Dorag back to the barracks to take a shower and change clothes, waiting for William and the others to return with their team. The entire branch held a banquet, and the atmosphere was filled with joy and excitement.

While toasting each other, Mo Xingchen discussed with Wilt the details of the distribution of military merits. For the final finishing work, the captured pirates were sent to Impel Down by the branch. After the drinking party, Mo Xingchen expressed his intention to leave and return to the headquarters to report.

The next afternoon, after finishing the packing and preparation, the warship slowly left the port. This time, it was Major General Wilt and a group of people standing on the shore to warmly see them off!

On the voyage back to the headquarters, Dorag frowned, looking puzzled. Mo Xingchen looked at him and said with amusement:

"What national affairs are you thinking about? Look at your frown, it could kill a sea king."

"Brother Mo, I actually wanted to ask you yesterday, but I still don't understand why you gave part of your military merit to Wilt?"

"Then let me ask you, where do these dozens of us eat, drink, defecate and urinate?"

"Sabaody Archipelago Branch!"

"Then let me ask you again, how is Wilt treating us?"

“The attitude is very friendly and basically all your requests can be met.”

“So we eat and use other people’s things, and the hero is still so polite and gives us convenience. Then you earn military merits on other people’s territory, and finally walk away with a haughty look on your face.

Put yourself in his shoes. If there is another mission next time, and it happens to be in Wilt's territory again, what do you think he will do?"

"Uh...I shouldn't be so enthusiastic."

"That's right~ The mission is yours, not his. Success or failure has nothing to do with him. If he has no bad intentions, he will at most treat you coldly. If he has bad intentions, he will do something behind your back on his territory, and it should be easy for him to make you fail the mission.

Then think about it again. I have given him military merit this time. If there is still a mission and I arrive at his territory, what will he do?"

"They should be more enthusiastic than this time, and even take the initiative to help."

"That's right! That's only one reason. Secondly, he has his friends, so when they chat, I will definitely be known to his friends. As long as I do this kind of thing more often, it will spread from one person to ten people, and from ten to a hundred people. In the end, no matter where I go, people will greet me with a smile and give me help!

It is no longer like this time when I need Sister He or someone else's boss to call and give me some advice! In life, only interests can move people's hearts. The world is not about fighting and killing, but about human relationships and worldly wisdom! Boy, you still have a lot to learn!"

At this time, a news bird flew down from the sky and landed on the fence. Dorag bought a newspaper, opened it, and said excitedly:

"Brother Mo! You're on the news, and it's on the headlines!"

"Oh~ let me take a look!"

Mo Xingchen took the newspaper handed over by Dorag, and what came into his sight was him holding two swords, frozen at the end of the street, with a group of fallen pirates on the background wall.

Tsk~ I have to say, this photo is really handsome! This distant view, this focus, this angle of view, makes Mo Xingchen's back look extremely domineering! Look at this title:

Another rising star in the Navy!

……

After returning to the headquarters port, as soon as Mo Xingchen and others got off the warship, the surrounding soldiers stopped their work and stared at Mo Xingchen with fanatical eyes and saluted.

After disbanding the team, Dorag went back to report to Zefa, while Mo Xingchen went to the Marshal's office alone to report. He felt a little flattered by the attention he received along the way, until he arrived at the door of Ganggukong's office and knocked.

"report!"

"Enter."

Mo Xingchen pushed the door open and walked in. Wow, there were quite a lot of people there. All the big guys were there, and it seemed like they were waiting for him.

"Yo, our new star of the navy is back!"

Steel frame air conditioner said with a smile,

"Hehe, that's all because of your good training! At least half of this kid's military medals are yours!"

"Hahahahahaha, with a mouth like yours, you'll never starve to death no matter where you go!"

Mo Xingchen did not respond, but smiled and greeted the big guys on the sofa enthusiastically, and took the initiative to pour tea and water for them.

"You are such a smart guy!"

Gang Gukong watched Mo Xingchen's performance, smiled and shook his head.

"Xingchen, you completed your mission beautifully this time! You also earned honor for our navy. Logically, it's not too much to promote you to major general, but you've been in the navy for too short a time. What do you think of brigadier general?"

"Marshal Kong, I have no objection. I will obey the organization's arrangements!"

"Well, you are a nice guy. Although your rank has not been raised, the Navy will not treat you unfairly. I can give you the rights of a major general first. Anyway, with your ability, you will be promoted in a few years. I plan to let you lead a branch. Is there any place you want to go?"

"Marshal Kong, I'm new here, I'm afraid I can't handle such a big job! How about I be an adjutant to Vice Admiral Garp?"

Mo Xingchen didn't think about being stationed in one place and becoming a frontier official. This job is too tiring! If you are not careful, you will get deeper and deeper into the navy, so he quickly and decisively refused.
