That night, Xia Nuo taught Fuji Tiger several board games with gambling properties, including but not limited to Mahjong, Hearthstone, Dungeons & Dragons, etc.

Fuji Tiger was extremely interested in these things, and he was happy on the spot, and after figuring out the general rules, he couldn't wait to pull a few equally enthusiastic crew members to run the group, and even stayed up until midnight, just making all the basic card deck props needed for these games.

Xia Nuo didn't accompany them to the liver, slept regularly as usual, got up on time at five o'clock in the morning the next day, first carried Dabai to swim more than ten kilometers in the nearby sea, and when he came back, Teng Hu just got up, pulled him and started another day of tenfold gravity training.

Compared with yesterday, Xia Nuo has adapted a lot today, and he insisted for more than four hours before shouting to stop, and when he walked out of the door of the training room amid the exclamation of "Wow, Golden Legend" from next door, he happened to bump into Daniel who ran over to report Xizizi.

"What's the matter, what makes you happy like this?" Xia Nuo wiped his sweat with a towel and said casually, "Take it easy, don't grin your mouth later." ”

"Captain, you can see it......" Daniel scratched his head a little embarrassedly, and then said excitedly: "That's the case, I finally caught up with that guy Rose today, and I have become a sword hero!" ”

"Oh?"

Xia Nuo was really a little surprised at this time, he looked at Daniel, who was excited and couldn't help himself, and smiled slightly: "That's really a good thing, it's worth celebrating." ”

No wonder Daniel was so excited, it turned out that he had finally broken through...... Xia Nuo remembered that among the two swordsman captains under his command, Rose, the captain of the team, had been able to cut steel as early as the Whiskey Mountain Peak, and then in the persistent and hard practice, it took two months to skillfully and steadily cut the flying slash - the so-called sword qi, thus officially stepping into the realm of the sword hero.

And Daniel, as the captain of the second team, when he first formed the Wind Pirates, his swordsmanship strength was actually almost the same as Rose's, and he even led for a time.

As a result, somehow, Daniel encountered a bottleneck in the way of the sword, although he could occasionally cut out the sword qi, but he has not been able to exert it stably, and even Xia Nuo's personal guidance several times did not work.

At that time, Xia Nuo felt that this was more like a dilemma in his mood, which led to the inability to break through, and now that Daniel has finally become a sword master, it must be inseparable from the difficulty in his heart.

"That's true!"

Sure enough, after Xia Nuo told this guess, Daniel nodded heavily and said guiltily: "Captain, when you were still at Whiskey Mountain, I almost died at the hands of the Gray Pirates, right?" ”

"Of course I do." Xia Nuo looked at his expression, vaguely guessed something, and said with a smile, "You don't have to take it too seriously, your bounty at that time was only about 20 million Bailey, and the opposite Gray is an old guy with a bounty of 70 million, isn't it normal to beat it?" ”

"That's true, but you know, Captain, if you hadn't made a timely move, I would have died under that guy's sword."

Daniel lowered his head and said a little uncomfortable: "After that battle, I made up my mind that I must become a sword master as soon as possible, and I can share some pressure for you, but what I didn't expect was that the more I wanted to break through later, the more difficult it was to slash out the flying slash, and even you even gave me the good fast knife you won at the Chambord Islands auction, but I still didn't have the strength worthy of that knife." ”

"But that's all in the past." Xia Nuo patted him on the shoulder, smiled and comforted: "After all, there is a reward for your efforts, haven't you become a sword hero now?" In the future, there will be no bottleneck restrictions, and it won't take much time to continue to practice hard and keep up with Rose. ”

"Hmm!"

Daniel nodded vigorously, and then said gratefully: "Speaking of which, because I haven't been able to break through for too long, the gap between my strength and Rosedaz is getting bigger and bigger, and I'm about to lose confidence, or thanks to what you said after defeating the Saint White Wolf Jones guy on Ice Peach Island before, I just cheered myself up, otherwise, I'm afraid I won't be able to become a swordsman in this life." ”

"Don't be too presumptuous, it's also inseparable from your own efforts."

Xia Nuo smiled, and his heart suddenly felt a little relieved.

Since the Battle of the Ice Peach Island Theater, he has seen some subtle changes on the ship, almost all of them are tightening a string in penance, and several cadres are working harder than one another, Daniel is one of the hardest, practicing no less than ten hours a day, and the degree of diligence is about the same as himself.

And the effect now seems to be quite obvious, Daniel has become the third swordsman on the ship, Kidd has initially mastered the hardening of the armed color, and Kira has improved by leaps and bounds...... The overall strength of the Storm Pirates has quietly risen by a whole level in the past two months.

This is also the reason why Xia Nuo will acquiesce to the crew to gamble and play with Fuji Tiger in their free time, they have been tense for so long, they have to take a slow, and the combination of work and rest is the most suitable way.

"Oh, yes, Captain."

After reporting his own affairs, Daniel suddenly remembered something, grabbed his hair, hesitated for a while, and said, "That, there is something I have to mention to you...... One of the crew asked me if you could give her some advice if you were free lately......

"Huh?"

Xia Nuo was a little surprised, what is this called, for more than a year, when his partners on the ship came to ask him, he had always taught patiently and never shirked, how could he be embarrassed and ask Daniel to ask?

Unless......

After thinking of a possibility, Xia Nuo frowned, looked at Daniel and said, "You're talking about Baby-5?" ”

"That's right." Daniel nodded hurriedly, and then said with a wry smile: "She looked for me once yesterday, but you were still in the training room at the time, so I didn't bother to knock on the door, and she mentioned it again this morning, I can't ......help it."

"Is that ......?"

Xia Nuo pondered for a while, and finally bowed slightly: "Okay, then you go and inform her to come to the training room in the afternoon, about three o'clock, and I should be almost rested by then." ”

"Yes, Captain." Daniel responded, and quickly turned away, but Xia Nuo didn't take it too seriously, and after standing there and thinking for a while, he returned to his room to rest and recuperate.

Speaking of which, on the current Hurricane, Baby-5 is indeed a relatively special existence.

On the one hand, as an excellent all-round maid, she took over a lot of chores in her daily life, especially her pretty good cooking skills, which helped Ivy relieve a lot of pressure.

On the other hand, after all, she was once a member of the Don Quixote family, and although the crew of the Wind Pirates had basically accepted her, she was still not as close as the old crew members, and even less than Fuji Tora, a blind uncle who had just been on the ship for more than a month.

In fact, this is not a big deal, this small estrangement, with the passage of time, will eventually dissipate invisibly, but Xia Nuo also noticed that for some reason, Baby-5 can communicate normally with the rest of the crew, but it is rare to find himself.

Therefore, it is indeed a little strange that she actually asked Daniel to bring the words this time, and wanted Xia no to give guidance or something.

…………

In the blink of an eye, it was about three o'clock in the afternoon.

When Xia Nuo came to the training room, he just pushed the door and saw a slender and beautiful figure, already sitting cross-legged on the floor.

Exactly the Baby-5.

Facing Xia Nuo's arrival, the girl raised her head slightly, the expression on her little face was a little cramped and uneasy, and after grabbing the skirt of her maid, she blushed and hung her head again.

"What is this going on?"

Seeing this, Xia Nuo also sat down cross-legged on the floor in front of him, and said angrily: "When we met for the first time before, I didn't see you so shy, why did you stay on the ship for more and more time, but became more and more introverted?" ”

"Talent...... Not at all! ”

The girl suddenly raised her head, her red face was full of unbearable shame, and she whispered: "Ming, obviously the relationship between the family and everyone on the ship is already very good, and I have never been shy at all!" ”

"My face is red into a tomato, and I still say no?" Xia Nuo said with a blank eye, "Also, when did you claim to have become a human being, is this your style?" Why don't you hurry up and change me back to my wife? ”

“…… Don't want to. The girl muttered, and then suddenly as if she remembered something, she glared at Xia Nuo angrily, making the latter a little confused.

Tuk tuk.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door suddenly, and then I saw Fuji Hu's head poking in, closing his eyes and smiling at Xia Nuo: "Ah, Your Excellency Xia Nuo, excuse me, I want to ask, if the dice thrown when running the group are greater than nine ......"

Speaking of this, he seemed to have reacted to something, suddenly stopped talking, looked at Baby-5 next to him, said sorry, and decisively retracted his head and closed the door and retreated.

"Huh!"

Xia Nuo was stunned by this scene, and he couldn't stop when he wanted to stop Fuji Hu, so he couldn't help but have a headache, looked back at baby-5, sighed and said: "If you see it, just say it if you have anything to say, otherwise everyone will misunderstand later." ”

"Okay......"

Baby-5 heard a hint of displeasure in Xia Nuo's words, frowned and thought about it, but still took the initiative to speak: "Lord Xia Nuo, do you remember the promise you made to me when we first met?" ”

"Is there one?" Xia Nuo recalled for a long time, but he didn't think about it.

"Didn't you?" Baby-5's eyes widened, and he said aggrievedly: "You obviously said that you need me and want me to help you!" ”
