Pirate: Trying 200 times harder, but too arrogant

Shieldstown, harbour.

The warship of Branch 32 raised its sails.

Fenbudi and many other sailors covered their eyes with their arms, burst into tears, and said goodbye to Iska with great reluctance.

It's hard to find a girl companion, but we have to be separated so soon.

Cry T﹏T!

Iska stood in front of Loya with a sweet smile on his face: Second Lieutenant Loya, I have learned a lot during the time I have worked with you. I hope I will have the opportunity to fight alongside you in the future!

There will be a chance.

Loya smiled and nodded.

The girl's swordsmanship talent is excellent and her future is bright. And as long as she is still in the Navy's system, sooner or later we will meet again.

Loya sent his heartfelt blessing: I hope we will see you next time at the Navy Headquarters.

Thanks!

Iska's eyes curved into crescent moons.

As a navy, as long as you have some pursuits, you will not want to go to the Navy Headquarters. It is the holy place in the hearts of sailors.

I am leaving!

Iska boarded the warship.

The coast wailed.

Goodbye, Iska-chan!

We will miss you!

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah, lovely Iska!

Fenbudi and other sailors burst into tears and kept waving to the warship, feeling like Swallow, how can I live without you?

Loya shook his head speechlessly.

Can you be of some use?

A moment later, Food Tavern.

As the New Year approaches, the tavern is much busier than usual.

Second Lieutenant Loya is here!

Second Lieutenant Loya caught so many pirates this time, he will definitely be promoted, right?

Of course!

When the drinkers saw Loya arriving, they greeted him warmly, their eyes full of admiration. A few cheap regulars even winked at Loya and Lilixiang at the bar.

Oh, naked jealousy!

Loya responded with a smile, then came to the wine table by the window and sat down. Sitting opposite him was Zoro, who was eating free meals.

Zoro didn't catch the pirate this time, which meant he had no income. He couldn't take out a steel coin from his huge pocket, so he could only eat and drink with him.

Seeing Loya staring at him, Zoro put down his dishes and chopsticks uncomfortably, and said calmly: Don't worry, I will pay you back the money.

I'm not here to collect debts.

Luo Ya straightened his expression.

How do you think about it? Do you want to practice with me?

I

Zoro's face was full of struggle.

After arriving in Shields Town, he took the initiative to say goodbye to Loya, but he was penniless and had nowhere to go, and there were no pirates to catch in the town.

At night, he lay outside the tavern and rested, somewhat attracting attention.

Loya came after hearing the news, took him to the tavern for a feast, and gave him money to stay in a hotel next door.

Of course, he didn't want to owe any favors. The money for food and accommodation was considered a loan, and he would definitely pay it back to Luo Ya in the future.

Afterwards, Loya invited him to stay and practice together.

Zoro was very grateful. He could feel that Loya valued him and had the idea of ​​letting him join the navy.

He does not dislike the navy. It should be said that no normal person would hate the navy. After all, the navy protects this sea area.

There was nothing wrong with being in the navy and catching pirates, but he was used to being alone and didn't quite adapt to the navy's rules.

And if you join the navy, you won't be able to find that man.

Zoro hesitated for a while, took a deep breath, and said solemnly: My dream is to become the world's best swordsman!

A very nice dream.

Luo Ya raised his eyebrows slightly: Since you have such a lofty dream, you should seize the time to focus on practice. Being a pirate hunter who is busy making a living will only make you farther and farther away from your goal.

I

Zoro couldn't find a reason to refute.

During these days on the Loya boat, he didn't have to think about anything. He was immersed in high-intensity training every day and could clearly feel his progress.

In the six months before this, his first priority was to catch pirates in exchange for bounties and fill his stomach, and he didn't have much time to practice.

As for becoming stronger in the fight.

He did encounter a few powerful opponents, but they were only powerful. Those pirates were not as strong as Kuina.

How can he become stronger if this continues!

Don't think too much, you're still young.

Loya stared at Sauron and sincerely suggested: There is only one thing you need to do now, and that is to practice hard and make yourself stronger.

Without strength, I am not even qualified to talk about dreams.

“Keep your eyes on your eyes.”

As for how to go in the future, that is a matter for the future. No one can force you, not even me.

Keep your sight in front of you!

Zoro raised his head, and there seemed to be fire burning in his eyes.

Loya smiled and added: By the way, there are countless swordsmen in the navy, and there are countless swordsmen who can cut iron. If you can't defeat them, you are not qualified to challenge that man.

Stronger than Iska?

Zoro couldn't help but ask. When he was on the warship, he actually wanted to challenge Iska, but the opponent was a woman.

Loya wagged her finger in amusement.

One hundred times stronger than her!

.!

Sauron stood up suddenly, exuding amazing fighting spirit: Let me get on your ship, but the ugly words are ahead. I have no plans to join the navy for the time being, but in return, I will help you fight!

good.

Loya smiled and nodded.

More haste less speed.

He is not in a hurry to recruit Zoro. There are still four years before Luffy goes to sea, and there is enough time to establish friendship with Zoro.

First tie Sauron to your side.

Gather at the port tomorrow morning.

no problem!

Wait, there's a problem!

Loya suddenly thought that if Zoro was allowed to go to the port by himself, he might still be lost at night.

Let's go, I'll send you to live on the warship. You will stay on the warship tonight and don't go anywhere. How about you live in a cell?

.

Zoro's forehead burst with veins.

Who would get lost in such a short journey?

Early the next morning, more than 20 sailors from Branch 153 gathered at the port, and Loya's promotion letter was also approved.

Rank: Major!

Upgrade three levels in a row!

He has already accumulated a lot of military achievements by wiping out more than a dozen pirate groups, and defeating the Bucky Pirates is even more of a feat.

Catching pirates is the fastest way to get promoted.

But if you want to be promoted later, the difficulty will increase tenfold. For the sailors in Donghai, the school level is basically the ceiling.

At the port, the sailors lined up neatly. When Loya arrived, they seemed to have made an agreement and shouted at the top of their lungs.

Major Loya!

The entire town of Shields was almost shaken away.

Well, thank you for your hard work.

Loya nodded with a smile on his face.

Very good, very energetic!

As expected of the soldier he picked out!

Sail!

Windmill Village.

The dog-headed warship slowly docked.

Lieutenant General Garp is back!

The villagers were pleasantly surprised. Thanks to Garp's intimidation, Windmill Village has been able to maintain peace over the years. Even pirates who were unsure of their destination did not dare to attack Windmill Village.

Garp is the patron saint of Windmill Village!

News of Garp's return quickly spread throughout the village.

In Maginot's tavern, Luffy and Ace were drinking secretly. They hunted a big wild boar and sent half of it over to thank Maginot for taking care of them.

When the two heard Garp's name.

“Pfft~~”

The drink was sprayed on the other person's face at the same time.

The two of them didn't bother to wipe, and rushed towards the door without thinking. The instinct of survival prompted the two of them to escape!

Bang!

The door of the tavern was violently pushed open.

A burly man appeared in front of the two of them.

Hahahaha, my lovely grandson, grandpa is back to see you!

grandfather!

Both of their eyes bulged out.

It's over, I'm going to die!
