Pirates: I'll be with the Straw Hat Pirates in my old age

As if blessed by God, Yun Yi did not encounter any bad things during this journey, except for the incident with the Golden Lion Shiji.

So, in the year 1513 of the Haiyuan calendar, Yun Yi, who had already turned 11, finally returned to the place where his dream began after leaving the East China Sea for two years.

"I haven't seen a living person for a long time. I miss it so much!"

The Calm Belt is a Jedi for humans. Apart from some strong people, there are only people on the island of Empress Hancock's daughter.

But Yun Yi and his companions did not encounter the Nine Snakes Pirates, so Rogue Town was naturally the only human gathering place they saw first.

"Hey, I'm not alive!"

Uta on the side complained unhappily, then walked towards Rogue Town with his small backpack.

Quickly catching up with Wuta, Yun Yi said with a smile: "No, no, of course I remember you, the big star."

"To be honest, it's thanks to you, a big star, to accompany me. Otherwise, I would only have those sea beasts to keep me company. I can't even imagine how boring my life would be every day."

Bored? I see you are having a great time!

Every day he either pulls a manatee to compete in strength, or chases an octopus and chops off its legs.

There was even one time when he mixed poison for himself to drink. You would say that such an idle person could do such a thing.

"By the way, the public security in Rogue Town seems to be much better than before."

Seeing Yun Yi walking through three or four streets without seeing a single pirate, he couldn't help but smile and speak.

"Maybe the naval generals here are strong, so no one dares to cause trouble here." Uta gently weighed the fruit in his hand and shouted nonchalantly.

Just then, the owner of the fruit shop came over with a box of watermelons and started explaining with a smile.

"This little girl is right. This year, the new Navy Commander Smoker has been vigorously cracking down on the surrounding pirates."

"It has been a long time since our Rogue Town has been so peaceful."

"By the way, you guys just came back from outside, right? So, I'll give you a 20% discount as a token of my welcome back to Rogue Town."

It turned out to be Smoker. I didn’t expect this guy to come to Rogue Town to take up the post so early.

Yun Yi smiled in his heart, and couldn't help but have the idea of ​​visiting.

"Hahaha, thank you so much, uncle."

Seeing how enthusiastic the uncle in the fruit shop was, Yun Yi also moved out a large pile of fruits, intending to take care of the business.

At this moment, a muscular man wearing a navy "Justice" coat, goggles around his neck and a strange weapon on his back was slowly walking away from the street.

It was Smoker the Smoker, but his little follower Tashigi didn't seem to be following him.

"Look, look! That's Lieutenant Colonel Smoker who has been protecting our Rogue Town."

(PS: The anime does not mention when Smoker came to Rogue Town, nor does it introduce his initial rank before Rogue Town, but considering that it is seven years earlier than the year 1520 of the Haiyuan calendar when Smoker appeared in the anime, I lowered Smoker's rank by one level.)

"Although he looks a little scary, he is a very gentle person."

The fruit shop owner pointed at Smoker who had not arrived yet and excitedly introduced him to Yun Yi and the others.

"Really? I told this guy to smoke less, but he just wouldn't listen!"

Ignoring the fruit shop owner's nagging, Yun Yi looked at Smoker who was still smoking, and felt angry.

This guy was not beaten enough and didn’t even listen to what the eldest brother said.

"Even his weapons have been replaced with seastone. It seems that the navy still values ​​this guy very much."

"Hey, hey, hey! Could it be that you know Lord Smoker?"

Hearing Yun Yi's muttering, the fruit shop owner looked at the two children in front of him in shock.

"Ah? I don't know him." Seeing that the boss misunderstood, Uta immediately waved his hands to deny it.

After hearing this, the boss finally relaxed.

"Hahaha, that's what I said. How could you two little kids possibly know such an important person?"

"Alright, let's quickly check how much your fruit costs. I have to ask Lord Smoker for his autograph later."

Just as Yun Yi was being urged to start counting the fruits, suddenly, a loud explosion was heard.

A huge shell exploded directly next to Smoker, stirring up thick smoke and dust, causing a commotion among the passers-by.

"Haha, Smoker, your death has come!"

A scarred man with a cannon on his shoulder was now on the roof of the house, grinning and mocking.

Around him, and near the explosion, many pirates were holding muskets and swords, surrounding Smoker in the smoke and dust.

"It's a pirate!!"

"Help! Are there more pirates causing trouble in Rogue Town?"

"Don't be afraid! Lord Smoker is here, he will definitely protect us."

With these words, the pedestrians fleeing around seemed to have found their backbone, and they all looked at Smoker in the smoke and dust.

Many people even spoke up to cheer for Smoker.

"Daddy, Lord Smoker!"

But at this moment, the pirate next to him spoke again, bringing everyone back to reality.

"Hehehe, I know your Lord Smoker is powerful, but this time we specially got a large number of artillery."

"So, even Lord Smoker, whom you trust the most, will definitely be destroyed by us."

"No...No, Lord Smoker is the most powerful. He will defeat you and put you all in prison."

A little girl, holding a rag doll in her hand, walked out timidly from the crowd.

"Hmm?" Noticing the little girl, the pirate looked at her with a grim smile, "Since you support him so much, then go and accompany him!"

The huge cannon was raised again, but this time it was aimed at the little girl.

In front of the fruit shop, Wuta shook Yunyi's arm anxiously.

"Go and save that little girl. She will die with so many pirates around."

"It's okay, it's okay." Yun Yi smiled and crossed his arms. "It's not a seastone shell, how could it hurt him?"

As if in response to Yun Yi's words, the next second, a smoky arm suddenly jumped out from the smoke that had not dissipated for a long time and grabbed the man with the cannon on his shoulder.

Then, without waiting for the other party to react, the fist slammed the pirate in his hand to the ground, creating a huge hole and causing blood to flow.

"captain!"

Seeing the captain being attacked, the surrounding pirates immediately drew their swords and rushed into the smoke.

"What is this? Lord Smoker's white fist. I knew that Lord Smoker would be fine."

The audience on the side cheered excitedly.

However, this scene scared the surrounding pirates.

At this moment, the pirate captain who was thrown to the ground began to command the battle again.

"Everyone, aim your cannons at Smoker and kill him!"

"Yes! Captain!"

The pirates who received the order immediately turned their guns and aimed them at Smoker who was slowly walking out of the smoke.

"fire!"

With an order, countless artillery pieces were fired at the same time, all bombarding Smoker in the center of the street.

When the onlookers around saw this scene, they quickly ran away.

"Yun Yi, Yun Yi, please go and help Smoker. With so many shells, he might really die." Seeing this scene, Uta asked again.

"Oh, just watch quietly. It's just a cannonball. It can't hurt this guy."

The pitch-black round shells, accompanied by the sound of tearing the air, flew towards Smoker.

"It's over!" Many pedestrians closed their eyes tightly, afraid to see the scene of flying limbs.

Looking at Smoker again, he found that he was still walking steadily towards the pirate captain whom he had thrown into the pit.

There was a loud bang, and when everyone opened their eyes nervously, they found a magical scene.

Smoker was fine.

"Why, why?" The pirate captain climbed out of the pit and looked at the man in front of him.

He shouted unwillingly: "Why did those shells pass through you? Why was it that such a violent explosion still couldn't hurt you?!"

"No reason, you are arrested!" Without explaining any reason, Smoker just walked calmly up to the pirate captain.

He picked it up and then pressed it to the ground again.

At this point, the extremely arrogant pirate captain completely lost consciousness, and bursts of cheers broke out all around him.

"Tsk tsk, this guy pretends to be you..."

Yun Yi looked at the many pirates who were trying to escape on the surrounding rooftops, and then threw out the ring in his hand.

"See? This is our Lord Smoker."

"There were so many pirates and artillery, but they couldn't even hurt Lord Smoker."

Hearing the boasting of the fruit shop owner again, and Smoker, who was well-loved in the crowd, a feeling of "evil thoughts" suddenly surged in his heart.
