By the time Rhodes had finished the demands that Augustine had set for him, it was already afternoon. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

His whole body was aching and weak, and his shabby clothes were soaked from his sweat.

Augustine hated the smell of his sweat and took him to the lake.

"Wash it up. Augustine was the first to take off his shirt, revealing a huge wound that stretched from his chest to his abdomen.

Rhodes saw Augustine's wound and hurriedly asked, "This wound ...... What's going on?"

"Ah...... It was a few years ago, and it has never healed, so I can only be a half-crippled person like this. Augustine seemed to have gotten used to it, and his tone of voice seemed indifferent.

Rhodes saw that Augustine seemed reluctant to mention what had happened before, so he had no choice but to stop mentioning it.

When Augustine's clothes were taken off and his whole body was soaked in water, he couldn't help but exhale comfortably. He buried his head in the water, poked it out again after a while, then wiped his face and combed his hair that had been messy.

Rhodes had just entered the water, and Augustine had been messy with his face and hair covering him, as well as his hoarse voice, so that Rhodes couldn't tell how big he was.

So Rhodes always thought of Augustine as a middle-aged uncle when he didn't see his true face.

But apparently he was wrong. Augustine is clearly a handsome young man in his thirties, not much older than his previous life.

"Hey, am I that good-looking? Hurry up and bubble, or you won't even be able to stand up tomorrow." Augustine said solemnly when he saw Rhodes staring at him blankly.

Rhodes came back to his senses, rolled his eyes at Augustine, and took a bath to himself.

Speaking of which, Rhodes has been in the One Piece world for so many days, and it is the first time he has taken a bath, and he feels that he has never been so comfortable.

The body, which had been tired after a long day's work, now felt numb, and the soreness quickly disappeared.

"Augustine, how many years is it now?"

"Now? It should be the year 1514 in the sea calendar. Augustine said with his eyes closed.

"Where is this island?" asked Rhodes again.

Augustine shook his head and said, "Even I don't know. ”

"Okay......" After knowing what time it was, Rhodes began to think back to the plot of One Piece.

……

"It's been soaked for an hour, it's going to get dark soon, go find food, today is the first day, don't let the teacher down. Augustine got dressed, and his handsome face, which had been covered, finally appeared, making Rhodes look a lot more comfortable.

"Ah......" Rhodes, who was soaking comfortably, couldn't help but cry at the thought that he would have to go into the hot forest to hunt animals again, and that he would most likely be covered with blood again.

"Go and come back. Before Rhodes could pretend to be pitiful, Augustine had already strode away.

In desperation, Rhodes continued to get dressed and plunged into the forest again in search of prey.

When entering the forest, Rhodes, who was still depressed, still fought hard and started a new hunt.

He climbed a tree and couldn't help but get anxious when he watched the sun go down, and at night, his vision was obstructed, and the danger would multiply several times.

If he can, try to hunt a prey before it gets dark.

Rhodes hid in a tree, waiting quietly for more than half an hour, when a deer appeared in his sight, he clenched his long sword, and slowly moved his position in the tree.

When the fawn walked under the tree, Rhodes jumped down from the tree and stabbed the fawn in the belly.

"Whew!"

"Whew!" just as Rhodes breathed a sigh of relief and thought that he was finally done today, a howl suddenly sounded behind him.

He subconsciously took his sword and blocked it backwards, and this block saved his life. Because behind him a huge wolf pounced.

In an instant, Rhodes was thrown to the ground by a huge force.

The wolf's sharp fangs were already approaching Rhodes' cheek, and the smell of blood in his mouth made Rhodes gasp.

"Ahh

The wolf's fangs were already approaching Rhodes' eyes, and Rhodes was starting to lose his strength. His arms began to stiffen.

No!

I can't just die!

More and more beads of sweat oozed from Rhodes' head, and he began to desperately push his potential.

There was only one belief in his head: to live.

One minute......

Two minutes......

Five minutes......

Rhodes didn't know how long he had been holding out, and his arms were no longer numerous. Just when he was really exhausted and had no strength left, a figure passed by him again.

Immediately after a flash of cold light, the giant wolf's neck was cut open by a sharp sword, and blood gushed out.

Rhodes saw the giant wolf dead and closed his eyes.

It didn't take long for him to wake up. He found Augustine under his control, and with both hands he grabbed his prey and walked in the direction of the cabin.

"Awake?" Augustine didn't look at Rhodes, but he sensed that Rhodes was awake.

"Your kid's life is really big, you can hold on to it for so long. ”

"The desire to survive is very strong, and he deserves to be the boy I look at. ”

Rhodes listened to Augustine's words like this.

"Boy, do you want to know where my wounds came from, why I want to kill Doflamingo?"

Rhodes was silent, waiting for Augustine to continue.

"Two years ago, when I was a rear admiral in the Navy Headquarters, I had extraordinary qualifications. Almost everyone in the headquarters thinks that I am qualified to become a lieutenant general in the future, and my future is bright.

Along with it, I was arrogant.

I was ordered to lead three hundred cadets on a warship to Marin Vando, and I met Doflamingo on the way, and the guy was doing all kinds of evil in the New World, and I noticed him early on. Young and vigorous, ignoring his strength and the identity of His Majesty the Seven Martial Seas, I took three hundred trainee navy to exterminate them.

I thought I could beat him. Can...... But I didn't expect that when I was fighting him, I would become meat on the board, and I don't know what abilities he used to let me be manipulated by him. I personally killed 300 cadet navy officers on a warship. As for my wounds, I cut them myself, because I didn't want to be his knife.

What's even worse is that after killing 300 midshipmen, he didn't kill me, he wanted me to live forever with guilt and self-blame and pain.

After that, I had no shame to face the navy, I couldn't face my colleagues who were optimistic about me, and I couldn't face the 300 relatives who were trainees in the navy...... So I ran away and came here.

So, I have a bitter enmity with Doflamingo. It's a pity that I've been seriously injured, and my strength has not advanced but retreated, and now I'm afraid I don't even have the strength of a brigadier general.

I can only pin my hopes on you, Rhodes.

Let's put an end to my regrets. I will teach you everything I have learned all my life. ”

Augustine's voice was a little choked.

The silent Rhodes nodded heavily: "Doflamingo, I'm going to kill you." ”
