"Haha!"

Karp's laughter resounded over the windy sea.

Smack——!

It was the sound of Karp slapping someone the shoulder.

"Kuzan, it's really you, I don't know where we're going and dare to get on the boat, poofhaha!"

Smack——!

Another heavy blow to the shoulder.

The pheasant patted Karp on the shoulder again and again, and after being silent, he showed a wry smile.

When Karp finally gave up, the pheasant rubbed his shoulders and asked, "So, what are you going to do in the West Sea?" ”

"Oh, go see the old man."

Karp grinned.

"The deceased? I thought I was going to the East China Sea. ”

"Haha!"

Karp slapped the pheasant again, and said, "This time is different." ”

"Different?"

A look of curiosity flashed in the pheasant's eyes.

Karp slowly put away his smile and said seriously: "The old man he wants to see this time is a trick gun. ”

The pheasant was silent for a while, and said in surprise: "Trick gun? You're talking about the Roger Pirates' tricky guns, right? ”

"Who else but him?"

Karp looked at the pheasant strangely, as if to say that your question is a bit too much.

The pheasant fell silent again, and looked around, finally resting on Karp's deputy not far away.

"Bogart, did you see my bike?"

"Nope."

Bogart, the deputy wearing a hat, shook his head.

Hearing this, the pheasant scratched the back of his head, got up silently, and immediately bent down, ready to put away the sun loungers, and then leave the downwind boat.

Smack——!

Another shoulder thump from Karp.

The pheasant looked up, and what caught his eye was Karp's heartless smile.

"Kuzan, the West Sea is very interesting."

"But the trick gun you're looking for isn't fun."

The pheasant sighed softly.

Karp withdrew his hand, picked his nostrils, and said indifferently: "I don't want you to do anything, just go while cooling." ”

The word...... It's not very suitable for use here, but I'll go while it's cool. ”

The pheasant reached out to the sun lounger again.

Smack——!

Another shoulder thump from Karp.

This time, Karp slapped the goug-out boogers on the pheasant's shoulder, and then withdrew his hand.

"It's all here, let's leave after dinner."

“……”

The pheasant wordlessly glanced at the boogers on his shoulders, first activated the ability to freeze the boogers, and then bounced his fingers away.

He knew what kind of enemy the trick gun was, so he knew Karp's motives for keeping him.

Never mind......

It's not a long time to see the old men in battle.

The pheasant lay back on the sun lounger.

Karp smiled, picked up a piece of senbei with his freshly picked up boogers, and brought it to the pheasant's face.

"Please eat senbei."

“……”

The pheasant silently put on the blindfold, and came out of sight.

Karp didn't care, and threw the senbei into his mouth.

He can deal with the trick spear alone, so he doesn't need the combat power of the pheasant at all.

It's just that since the pheasant is on the boat, let's stay.

As for the battle, he just pulled down this old face, and he was embarrassed to let the pheasant on vacation make a move.

But if there is a pheasant, you can put a talisman on your crew.

Because Karp has dealt with the Roger Pirates many times, he knows exactly how tricky the tricky guns are.

One is mobility, and the other is the means of killing.

When fighting, you can't catch up with the trick gun.

You can defend it, but you can't stand it with a trick gun and pick on your teammates.

Sometimes I'm so angry that my teeth are itching, and I can't do anything about it.

In many contact battles, it was also the trickster spear that carried out long-range strikes first, which in turn relieved the frontal pressure of the Roger Pirates.

The most helpless thing is that when many colleagues are hit by a shot, they don't even know where the bullet flew from, let alone who pulled the trigger.

In battle, most people tend to focus on enemies like Roger Whitebeard, who are full of intimidating power in frontal combat.

Therefore, when the battle becomes more and more intense, the sniper's presence will become weaker and weaker, and then the number of enemies will be quickly reduced invisibly.

Even, as long as you are aware of the existence of a sniper at all times, you will invisibly increase your psychological pressure.

That's the scariest part of the rifle.

That man, who had no need for fame at all, fulfilled his duties perfectly from beginning to end, silently supporting his partner in the rear.

In the rest of Karp's career, he did not encounter a second trick gun.

If I have to say it, I saw the shadow of the treacherous spear on the red-haired pirates, one of the current Four Emperors.

Maybe it's because the red-haired Shanks was born in the Roger Pirates, so there are many feared gunners in the backbone of the red-haired pirates.

Karp looked up at the blue sky and white clouds.

"This time, I won't let you run away again."

.............

West Sea, 158 branch of the Navy.

The indoor training dojo with all kinds of equipment is full of momentum.

"Drink!"

"Drink!"

"Drink!"

The Navy soldiers who were training in the formation showed a different kind of excitement than before.

Even if it was already over-training, even if sweat soaked every corner of their body, they didn't feel tired at all.

What's going on?

When the sailors are not training, they sometimes look distracted at Gion, which is also drenched in sweat not far away.

The air is filled with an invigorating aroma.

And the source of this fragrance is Gion, a woman who is perfect in their eyes.

Sweaty......

A word used to praise a woman, without exception, comes to the mind of every naval soldier.

It was the jasmine-like aroma that came from Gion that made them tirelessly complete today's training.

No, it's overdone.

To stay one more second, or to see Gion for one more second.

They had already started the second round of training.

Gion ignored the admiring gazes from all around him and focused on completing each training move.

Originally, she would not have come to the training ground during this time period.

However, she received a message today that Karp was on his way.

On the eve of going to Mad Hatter Town to fight the treacherous guns, she couldn't hold back, so she came to the training ground temporarily.

In addition to using the ability, it also affected the other naval soldiers in the training ground.

A corner of the training ground.

Colonel Robbie, who had been transferred here from the Navy Headquarters, was also there.

The matter about the Platinum Chamber of Commerce had been dealt with, but he was in no hurry to go back to the headquarters.

If you want to talk about the reason, of course, it is Gion.

He looked at Gion with a smile on his face, his face full of undisguised admiration.

Beside Robbie, a lieutenant colonel of a branch lowered his voice and said, "The fragrance emanating from Rear Admiral Gion ......"

"It's not because of why Gion is so popular."

Robbie glanced at the lieutenant colonel and interrupted.

The lieutenant colonel said, "I'm just ......"

As a result, before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Robbie again.

"Oh, that's the power of the Devil Fruit."
