Pirate: Trying 200 times harder, but too arrogant

Grand Line, St. Poplar Island.

Spring Queen City.

The sea train stopped at the station and would not depart until the next day because of the need to resupply and load and unload lumber.

Wow, it's so beautiful here.

Everyone stepped out of the carriage, faced with the warm spring breeze, and felt quite relaxed looking at the clean, tidy and well-organized town ahead.

It's like arriving in paradise.

This island has a Spring Island climate and is famous for its abundant timber and pleasant scenery. It is very suitable for travel and settlement.

Loya explained.

The Seven Rivers Capital built a sea train route not only for tourism, but also for the development of its own shipbuilding industry.

The Seven Waters Capital is short of resources, and most of its needs must be supplied by other islands. The high-quality wood from Saint Poplar Island and the steel from the Gourmet City are indispensable shipbuilding materials.

A man and a woman came over and stopped in front of Loya and the others. Among them, the girl with short blond hair looked at Uta expectantly.

Excuse me, are you Miss Uta?

Well, it's me.

Uta smiled and stretched out his hand: Are you President Kerla?

Yes.

Kerra shook hands with Uta excitedly, obviously managing the Peace Foundation, but acting like a fan.

Miss Uta, nice to meet you!

The two girls communicated quietly.

Loya glanced at Kerla, and then looked at the other party's companion, a blond young man wearing a top hat with goggles and a scar on his face.

Is it Sabo?

Chief of Staff of the Revolutionary Army, Sabo.

He is also the sworn brother of Ace and Luffy. I don’t know if you have recalled your childhood memories now.

Um?

Sabo noticed Loya's gaze and looked over, feeling a little nervous. Of course he knew the reputation of the black-haired lieutenant general.

It should be fine.

Sabo murmured in his mind that he was now serving as Kerla's bodyguard, and since he had just become chief of staff, his exposure was extremely low. There was currently no bounty on him, so he should not be recognized.

Seeing the black hair nodding slightly to him, Sabo quickly returned a stiff smile, feeling even more unsure.

Please come with me, I've ordered lunch.

Kerla enthusiastically invited everyone. She still had many work matters and wanted to talk to Uta in detail.

The Peace Foundation was created based on Uta's reputation and has developed rapidly. In just a few years, it has become a large organization that can influence the world.

In terms of funding, the foundation no longer relies on Uta. Nowadays, a large number of people who yearn for peace donate to the foundation, and many forces generously inject funds.

Arguably the largest charity organization.

After lunch, there was a fan meeting for Uta in the afternoon, and almost residents of the entire town came to the scene.

Loya became the backdrop.

I originally thought he was famous enough, but in the eyes of ordinary people, Uta was countless times more popular than him, and few people asked him for his autograph.

Oh, he actually doesn't care at all.

Time passes day by day.

Kerla had made all arrangements for the next trip, and even Loya was impressed by her work ability. No wonder Dorag felt comfortable letting such a girl serve as the president of the foundation.

In comparison, a certain chief of staff's performance was much inferior. He had good force and defeated several pirate groups who were looking for trouble.

A week later, the sea train made its last stop.

Carnival City.

The Peace Foundation prepared a charity performance, not only inviting Uta, but also many industry stars to perform for free, which was very popular.

It's time to find someone.

Loya heads to the casino area.

However, for three consecutive days, I didn't even see the back of Mr. Yixiao.

On the day of the charity performance.

Loya stood in the stage area, looking at the blind old man waving light sticks in the audience area, and CP9 who had a very cheerful atmosphere, and fell into deep thought.

If you want to find someone in the future, can you just take Uta to a concert?

In the evening, the charity performance ended.

Just as he was about to take a gamble, Yixiao was stopped by Luo Ya.

Long time no see, Mr. Yixiao.

Is this voice the black-haired Lieutenant General?

Yixiao was surprised.

I didn't expect Mr. Yixiao to still remember me.

Luo Ya smiled slightly: Find a place to rest. I have something I want to talk to Mr. Yixiao.

good.

The two of them came to a small shop with a relatively quiet environment and ordered a bottle of sake and a few simple side dishes.

Hohoho, have you been seen?

Yixiao rubbed the back of his head in embarrassment, seeming a little embarrassed that he was still chasing stars at such an early age.

I cannot see, so I am more sensitive to sounds. The ideas conveyed in Miss Uta's singing have really made me yearn for it for a long time.

clear.

Loya nodded in agreement.

The main theme of Uta's songs is peace, and his dream is to bring peace to the world through singing.

With Yixiao's righteous heart, it would be weird not to like it.

Downed a few glasses of wine.

Loya explained the purpose of his visit: Mr. Yixiao, the purpose of my coming to you is to invite you to be the admiral of the navy.

As a general.

Yixiao's expression gradually became serious.

The admiral represents the highest combat power of the navy. Normally, even if the world government is conducting a large-scale recruitment, the position of admiral will not be open to the outside world.

To realize his ambition, he needs a high enough power and status, and the admiral just meets his requirements.

Opportunities are hard to come by. If he misses it, he may only be a gambler and die alone in his life.

Yixiao did not agree impatiently. He had already seen the darkness of the world, so he had to figure out the reason first.

Why do you choose to be below?

Aoji left the navy, and there are currently two admiral positions vacant, so I recommended you to Marshal Akainu.

Loya gave a brief explanation and said: Mr. Yixiao, I think you have the righteous mind to serve as a naval admiral and the corresponding strength.

.

A smile and a wry smile.

I am blind, what can I do -

Stop pretending, it's boring.

Loya rolled his eyes: When I first met you in the Golden City, I could see that you were no ordinary person.

.

He bowed his head and drank in embarrassment with a smile.

He was just being modest, why should he be so direct?

After a long time, he raised his head and faced Luo Ya with a smile, and asked in a deep voice: Little black-haired brother, I still don't understand. You know nothing about me, why would you recommend me to be a general? Can you give me a reason?

The reason is yes.

Luo Ya pondered for a moment and raised the corners of his mouth.

The reason is actually very simple. The world is suffering, but the navy that maintains order lacks a general who truly cares about the people!

Care about the people.

Yixiao was shocked, this point truly came to his heart.

It seems that I can't refuse!

You have no reason to refuse.

Loya smiled and raised his glass.

This is something you and I would like to do, but we just lack an opportunity.

Here, cheers.

Ding!
