Pirate: 9 to 5? But I'm a pirate!

The whole tavern was silent for more than ten seconds before finally there was a little sound.

The three stunned brothers screamed at the same time.

"Hey~!!"

"Really! Boss! Are we finally going to leave this little broken place?"

The faces of the three were also extremely excited.

They had waited for this day for too long.

It was okay at first, but after working from nine to five for a year, they really looked forward to leaving here as soon as possible every day.

But every time Wayne answered, there were only three short words.

'Wait a little longer. '

They have heard these three words countless times.

Every time it was just wait a little longer.

This time, Kiel even suspected that Wayne was going to find him a wife, but he didn't expect Wayne to talk about this.

They really wanted to leave in their dreams.

They almost knew who liked to wear what color underwear in the nearby village.

They were really fed up.

Now, hearing Wayne's words, they were more excited than each other.

The three of them have improved their strength now.

But their potential is limited. Even with the help of Wayne, they can only reach the strength of Aaron in ten years.

But they don't want to stay in this small village where the average person is ordinary.

Seeing Wayne nod, the three of them cheered immediately.

But the villagers around them were not as happy as they were, and even felt that the food in front of them was not fragrant.

Although Wayne would come to their village from time to time to make some noise, he actually made all the pirates around go away.

There are only five or six villages in total, all of which are labeled by Wayne, and they are the main places for him to complete his work tasks.

No blind pirate dares to come here to make trouble.

If he leaves, it will not be a good thing for ordinary villagers like them.

Makino brought a portion of pork leg rice that Wayne wanted and gently placed it in front of him.

But it can be seen from her slightly trembling delicate hands.

She is not as calm as she seems.

"Are you really leaving?"

"Yes."

"When are you leaving?"

"Today, I have to go to work at nine o'clock tomorrow morning. I'm afraid it will be too late if I'm late."

"Have you packed your things?"

"Nothing to pack. But you can take two bottles of good wine from your place."

"You, you can take whatever you want..."

Seeing that Wayne was determined to leave, Makino didn't say anything more.

But the cups she knocked over from time to time and the plates she accidentally broke showed that she was not calm in her heart.

After taking his veteran crew to dinner, Wayne paid the bill and left.

Before leaving, Makino also gave Wayne the two best bottles of wine in the store and the two barrels of beer that had just arrived in the warehouse.

"The wine won't go bad. If there is not enough water, you can drink it..."

The sky was dotted with stars and the moonlight was shining.

At the door of the tavern, Makino said absentmindedly to Wayne in front of him.

Behind Wayne, the three excited brothers carried the things Makino sent and walked towards the pirate ship.

Wayne looked at Makino, who looked even whiter because of the cunning moonlight.

A smile appeared on his face.

He slowly took out a black object from his pocket and handed it to Makino in front of him.

"This is the flag of my pirate group. When we become famous one day, you can hang it at the highest point of the village."

After saying this, the air around him was quiet again for a few seconds.

After a while...

"Thank you for taking care of me for so many years."

"Goodbye."

The gentle evening breeze blew Makino's long green hair.

When she looked up, she only saw Wayne's departing back.

Looking at the flag that belonged to the White Pirates in her hand, Makino's mood was extremely complicated.

He left.

But he had to go...

...

The ship started moving quickly.

Heading for the unknown distance.

"Boss! Where are we going first?"

Kigi, who was always taciturn, was obviously very active at this time.

Wayne just said to go, but he didn't say where to go.

At this time, Kiji also looked at Wayne standing on the bow and looking at the sea in the dark night and asked.

Where to go?

To be honest, with Wayne's current strength, there is no problem going directly to the Grand Line.

There is no need to waste time in the East China Sea.

But Wayne's goal is not to become a pirate king, so it's useless to be so anxious.

He just feels that his strength can protect himself in the East China Sea, and the range of activities has become larger.

This is also the reason why he decided to go to sea.

But it is limited to the East China Sea.

He doesn't want to go to the Grand Line now.

He can't break the natural system there..

Can't take risks.

Let's go around the East China Sea first. When he is strong enough to protect himself on the Grand Line, he will consider leaving the East China Sea.

As for where he will go in the East China Sea.

Wayne can only say, go wherever he is familiar with!

So which place is familiar?

Of course, he is most familiar with the route that Luffy took in the original book.

He knows who is there and what strength they have. He knows everything.

Only by going to such an island can he work safely.

Even in the East China Sea, he has to be extremely careful.

There are too many strange things in this world.

There are Red Hair and Garp in the small Windmill Village. You can't be sure that such things will happen in other places.

It is safest to go to a place you are more familiar with.

The last time Garp came back, he scared Red Hair away.

It was a good thing that he didn't choose to work in the Windmill Village that day, otherwise he would have been in trouble.

If he were nearby, the system might issue a 100-level mission: Go and kill the navy hero!

Then it would be a dilemma.

It was 1520, and Luffy seemed to have gone to sea in that year. It had been so long that he couldn't remember clearly.

In short, even if the conditions on those islands were different, they wouldn't be too different.

As for the first stop, Wayne's choice was the 163rd branch where Axe King Monka was stationed.

It was a safe place, and there were no masters there. It was the best choice to try whether the missions issued by the system would change.

"Go to Kaz Town."

"Okay! Boss, take a seat! I promise to arrive before nine o'clock tomorrow!"

...

The next day.

Windmill Village.

Bang!

"Makino! Is Wayne coming to work in our village today?"

A young man wearing a straw hat pushed open the door of the tavern and walked quickly to the bar.

Inside, Makino was wiping the wine glass absentmindedly.

She did not answer his question.

Luffy was confused when he saw that Makino was slow to answer.

He waved his hand in front of Makino and repeated the question again.

Makino stopped wiping the wine glass.

Looking at Luffy in front of her, she said with a complicated expression: "He left yesterday."

"Left? To another village?"

"No, he went to sea. He may never come back."

At this point, Makino's eyes were also a little sad, and the whole person looked a little haggard.

But Luffy was stunned when he heard this.

He went to sea?

Why did he go to sea?

I'm about to become an adult, why did he leave?

This guy, what on earth is this guy thinking.

He doesn't just want to take me with him, right?

A moment later...

"I want to go out to sea too! I'm going out to sea today! I'm going to chase him!"

...
