Comic series: Starting from Pirates to Cultivate the True Self

Xiaoyu was a very sensible child. When she heard Mo Xingchen say this, she didn't think about it carefully. She raised her head and looked at the old man in front of her who had the same hair color as her. She couldn't help but feel a sense of closeness in her heart.

So she smiled sweetly and shouted crisply:

"grandfather."

However, Xiaoyu's call of "grandfather" made Zefa feel a little bit at a loss. The old navy man, who was nearly 70 years old and had experienced many storms, suddenly felt his nose a little sour and his eyes a little wet.

He thought of his deceased wife and children, and thought that if... they were still alive, he would have a grandson this old now.

He looked at his old classmates, each of whom had children and grandchildren, but at least had successors. Although he could proudly say that the entire navy was his disciple, he could not deny that he was envious deep down in his heart.

He had thought at one time that when he finished training the new recruits and returned home, someone would call him Dad and some children would happily run over and call him Grandpa.

Even if his child does not become a navy soldier, but an ordinary civilian, he may even bear the bounty for his ideal.

It's better than sitting alone at the head of the bed, staring at the yellowed photos in a daze.

"Hey... hello... my name is Zefa."

Zefa responded in a panic and awkward manner, not realizing that he was using honorifics, and introduced himself to the girl in a serious manner.

Seeing Uncle Zefa like this, Mo Xingchen couldn't help but feel a little sad. It seemed necessary for him to come out and liven up the atmosphere.

So he imitated Kizaru's tone, moved closer to Zephyr, and said with an exaggerated expression:

"Kowayi! Our great Navy Chief Instructor, are you crying?"

"Nishinai~"

Mo Xingchen, who was warming up the crowd, was punched by the angry Zefa and sent him spiraling up into the air.

But after his interruption, Zefa calmed down a little.

...

...

"Ugh!!!!"

Xiaoyu has seen the battle between Mo Xingchen and Kaido. In her mind, this handsome uncle is a super powerful one.

He didn't expect that at this moment, the old man he just called grandpa would knock him away with a punch. His eyes widened and his nose ran with fright.

Zefa was also amused by Xiaoyu's funny expression, so he smiled and comforted her softly:

"It's okay. That brat is very tough."

As he was speaking, Mo Xingchen's whole body glowed with a faint golden light, and he floated back to Zefa without any damage, and said teasingly with a teasing expression:

"Uncle Zefa, is this how you repay me?"

"Humph! Who told you to learn from that bastard Borsalino instead of learning from the good ones?"

Zefa retorted stubbornly. He would not admit that he had done it because he felt too embarrassed.

Well, this can be regarded as an old tradition in the navy, and the main thing is to be stubborn and stubborn.

Mo Xingchen spread his hands, shrugged, and said very easily:

"Okay, okay, I can't argue with you.

I brought Xiaoyu here because I wanted you to take her to the town to go shopping and buy her some new clothes and daily necessities.

You know, I'm not at headquarters all year round, so I'm not familiar with the town."

When Zefa heard Mo Xingchen say this, he looked at Xiaoyu's clothes, which had been washed to a pale color and were covered with patches.

Naturally, he would not believe Mo Xingchen's nonsense. If Mo Xingchen said that he was not familiar with the Naval Headquarters building, Zefa would believe it. But if he said that he was not familiar with the town of Marinford, that would be pure nonsense.

As long as you don't see the two naval admirals, Mo Xingchen and Borsalino, in the headquarters building, you can go directly to the tavern or massage parlor in the town and you will be able to catch them.

Zefa understood why Mo Xingchen said that. Sometimes when men talk too openly to each other, it can seem overly pretentious and weird.

...

...

But Zefa turned around and looked at the soldiers who were training on the playground, and said hesitantly:

"Then... here..."

"Go ahead, Uncle Zefa. I'm here to watch over you. Are you still worried?"

"Well, that's up to you."

Zefa was afraid that Mo Xingchen would go back on his word, so he spoke quickly. After all, this kid was notoriously lazy.

Then he turned to look at Xiaoyu and said with a smile:

"Xiaoyu, do you want to ride a big horse?"

Xiaoyu looked around after hearing this and asked in confusion:

"Da Ma?"

Zefa laughed, picked up Xiaoyu with both hands, put her around his neck, and shouted:

"Let's go!"

"Kekekekeke~"

With a laughter as sweet as a silver bell, the dignified Navy Chief Instructor Zefa ran away like a naughty boy.

Mo Xingchen looked at the backs of the old man and the young man, shook his head with a smile on his face, turned around and yelled at the new recruits on the training ground:

"gather!"

Soon, the soldiers formed a line and waited quietly for Mo Xingchen's order.

"I'll give you a break. We'll continue training tomorrow. Disband!"

Hearing Mo Xingchen's order, the new recruits below were excited and shouted:

"Long live the general!!!"

After cheering for a while, the recruits left the training ground in groups, chatting and laughing with their friends. They were probably discussing where to go for a few drinks and relax after taking a shower.

...

...

Just when Mo Xingchen was about to return to the headquarters building, two girls walked towards him. They were Kuina and Iska.

"Mr. Mo, you're back!"

Mo Xingchen smiled and nodded in response, saying:

"Yeah, I just got back yesterday. How is it going? Are you used to the training camp?"

“It’s pretty good. Everyone here is talented and speaks well. I also made some new friends!

And Mr. Zefa is also quite good. Although he is not a swordsman, he has pointed out many problems in my swordsmanship for me. "

Kuina said happily.

"That's fine. Uncle Zefa praised you yesterday."

"Hehehe, Mr. Mo, that bastard Luo is back too! Where is he now? I'm going to fight him. I might be able to win this time. I'm very strong now!"

Kuina said confidently, showing off her biceps.

Mo Xingchen found the girl's silly attitude interesting and said with a smile:

"Well, he did come back, but now he is probably cleaning the toilet."

"Ah????"

Kuina was stunned when she heard this, and a row of big question marks appeared above her head.

At this time, the little girl beside her bowed to Mo Xingchen, her cheeks slightly flushed as she said:

"General Tianshu! Thank you for giving me the opportunity and recommending me to the elite training camp."

"Oh, how did you know it was me who recommended it?"
