One Piece's Life

Chapter 4: The old man and the kid

In the next few days, Old John's attitude towards me seemed to be getting colder and colder, and I felt that this was not the way to go.

When I woke up this morning, I came up with a bad idea and said something to Old John like a kid: "Grandpa John, I will take care of the food from now on, but I can't bring you the wine you like."

Old John took off his hat and rolled his eyes at me: "Then where are you going to get food?"

I replied smoothly: "Go to the sea to catch fish, and you can eat whatever you catch, but I have my own way."

Old John put on his hat again, straightened it out and replied slowly: "Oh...then you can try it, but if you don't come back before dark or you can't see a fish when you come back, your food in the future will be up to you." Solve it yourself.”

I confidently said in front of him: "Just don't overeat until then." I went back to my room directly and needed to find a tool to hold the fish.

The problem was that Old John was too frugal and didn't have much. After thinking about it, he decided to take the only "quilt" on the bed to carry it. Anyway, he could wash it at the beach.

I hurriedly left the ship and looked at the woods not far away. I had learned from Old John before that this place was located in the South China Sea, a small town south of the Kingdom of Albares, Four Leaf Town.

Siye Town is a relatively closed town. People in the town rarely trade with neighboring islands, but they will not refuse if they are willing to take merchant ships to do business.

As for why the North Sea Kraken appeared in the South China Sea, Old John didn't understand either.

To go to the beach, you have to go through the woods. There are two small ports in Siye Town. Of course, there are about 10 places where you can actually go to the sea.

It's just that it would be a bit too reckless to contact people in the town now. Since I am an extraordinary person, I have to take an extraordinary route.

I walked back to the boat, walked a few more steps to the cliff behind the boat, and looked down at the water below. I estimated it was more than 30 meters high.

Alas, I still can't move on the moon and can't fly, so I can only develop new magic, well, flying magic.

Then I went back to the woods to develop new magic. After practicing hard all morning, I finally developed the flying magic. Thunder Wings: flying magic, thunder attribute wings. It consumes 200 magic. It can fly in the air and move faster in the air. , lasts for 20 minutes, can dispel the magic in advance, and consumes 10 magic per minute after the timeout.

After seeing this display, I felt pretty good. I forgot to mention one thing, that is, I had been drifting at sea for 34 days before I met Old John. I originally thought I could find the next island with 5 days of food, but after that I was half-starved. When I saw a fish in the sea, I electrocuted it with magic.

However, my physical strength has been increased to 1, and the current display is:

Physical strength: 130

Mana value: 4001000 Restore 10 mana per minute

Magic f: 53

After resting for an hour, the magic was fully restored.

I came to the edge of the cliff again and turned on the Thunder Wings. Purple translucent wings grew out from my back. After moving for a while, I could control these wings, and then I jumped towards the cliff.

Stopping in mid-air, I struggled again, why am I so stupid? If I had developed this magic on that small island, I would have been out of trouble long ago.

Let’s start fishing. After searching for nearly two hours, we got quite a lot. There were more than 10 half-meter fish and about 20 fish that were 3040 centimeters. These fish were all in a state of paralysis. Some fish were in a state of paralysis. Many have rolled their eyes.

I am still not good at controlling it, so I will have to lower the intensity of the discharge next time.

Wrapping these fishes in blankets, carefully pulling them with both hands, they flew to the cliff again. The magic was almost exhausted. I found that this magic value is really a good thing. Unlike physical strength, it is automatically replenished.

After removing the Thunder Wings, the fish probably totaled about 50 kilograms, which was enough to eat. I walked leisurely to the deck of the boat and released all the fish. Old John started handling the fish without saying a word. John doesn't know much about cooking, but he can make do with it.

Next to the fire rack, there is a circle of grilled fish. Next to another campfire, fish soup is boiling in a pot.

Old John enjoyed the delicious food and did not ask where the fish came from.

After killing all the fish, I cooked by the fire. Looking at his expression of enjoyment, I knew how long it had been since he had had enough to eat.

He took off his hat, put it aside, and asked curiously: "I saw you, kid, flying around under the cliff during the day. Can you fly? What kind of strange ability is that?"

I thought about it for a moment, and I had to come up with a rationale. There was no magic in this world, so I could fool around with it.

After burping, I answered directly: "Grandpa John, there is a treasure in this world, which is a kind of fruit. It is very difficult to eat, but if you eat it, you will have many novel abilities. I picked up this fruit when I was drifting in the sea. Yes, I can release thunder and lightning, isn’t it awesome?”

Old John seemed to be stuck in a memory and did not answer.

After a long time, he only said: "Oh, I heard about this kind of fruit when I was a child. It is very precious. Now I probably don't have it in the collection of the entire Kingdom of Albarez. My kid, your ability is very novel, and it feels very special." Awesome, practice well”

After turning around, he added: "From now on, I will leave the daily food to you, kid. Don't go to the town to the west. Just exercise near here. Just don't go through the woods."

I nodded in agreement and stood up: "Don't worry, I don't want to deal with the people in the town. I'm going to sleep. Grandpa John, don't stare at the cliff too late tonight."

After I returned to the cabin leisurely, uh, I forgot that the quilt was taken to catch fish. There is no quilt tonight, but it doesn't matter.

After the physical strength has increased by one level, I am no longer afraid of the cold. This is something I have tested during my rafting days.

Now I must work hard to improve my strength. At the same time, I insist on fixed exercises every day. My body is still very weak and cannot withstand high-intensity exercise.

But now I must seize every minute to improve my strength.

For more than two months here, I used 10 volts of thunder magic for two hours every night before going to bed.

This is a low-level thunder magic that controls electric current to pass through every part of the body, which can strengthen the body and improve the accuracy of controlling thunder magic.

Right now, I can barely withstand an electric shock of 10 volts.

Let’s extend the exercise time to 4 hours tonight.

In the days to come, I will run 1 meters back and forth and do 300 frog jumps in the morning; fish for vitality in the afternoon; and turn on the self-abuse mode in the evening.

In this way, a very peaceful period of more than 3 months passed. Over the past three months, my physical strength has increased to 3, which seems to be in better shape than Old John's.

The vitality gained by these sea fish is 510, which is at least better than the fixed 1 of shells. In the past three months, they have gained about 3 vitality. I can’t remember clearly. Anyway, there is remaining vitality, which can directly strengthen the body.

The panel properties have also been improved a lot. The current display is:

Physical strength 330

Mana value: 55005500 Restore 30 mana per minute

Magic f: 453

Quiet days will always be broken.

Tonight, Old John did not come back on time as usual...
