9 A chance encounter without a windy belt, a group of nobodies
A few days later.
The Bato Club is assembled, the ships are ready, and the pirate ship that costs up to 40 million Baileys is extremely windy, enough to carry hundreds of people.
Bartolomeo called it the "Avenging Vanguard".
Meaning, you must find Luffy and get revenge on him with a punch.
Port.
"Grandma, let's go!"
"Grandma, we'll call you often!"
Bartolomeo and the other members of the club were weeping, bidding farewell to an old woman who was only as tall as his thigh.
If Bartolomeo is the boss of the Barto Club, then Grandma is the soul of the Barto Club.
Many times, when the club encounters difficulties, it is the grandmother who comes up with ideas or comes forward to solve them.
Even in Rogue Town, Grandma is the number one person.
It is rumored that Grandma used to be a big man who was at the top of the era with Roger, but later lived in seclusion.
"Grandma!"
Roy stepped forward to say hello.
"Roy, you're finally going to sea too!"
Grandma was greatly pleased.
She is undoubtedly in favor of going to sea.
Against the backdrop of the Age of Discovery, it was widely believed that ambitious men were nothing. Only those who dare to go to sea are real men, brave warriors, and worthy of the ambitions they should have.
This has to be placed in some places, and Grandma is a typical hawk.
"Roy!"
"Big Brother Roy!"
Ichimatsu and Dadi, as well as a few young guys, stood on the land, watching Roy and the others board the ship.
Roy waved at them.
Click!
The ship's sailors put away the anchor and loosened the ropes, and the Batow Club Pirates slowly left Rogue Town.
Woowoo woo β
The sound of a horn sounded on the ship, and the sound was heard far away.
Shore.
People have always stood where they are, never wavering.
It wasn't until the Vengeful Vanguard completely disappeared into the sea and the bright rays of sunlight hit their faces that they reacted.
In just a few days, Smoker was gone, Bartolomeo was gone, and Roy was gone......
youngster
It's time to see the outside world.
β¦β¦
Vengeful Vanguard.
Bartolomeo took out the gift that Grandma had given him.
A box.
"Hey, did Grandma send me some secret weapon?"
Bartolomeo was a bit surprised.
Grandma let him get on the boat and walked away and then opened it, which really made him inflated his curiosity, and he couldn't control himself.
Now away from the port, he finally couldn't take it anymore.
Roy was also curious.
He decides to help Bartolomeo open the box.
A fruit.
Extremely ugly, but peculiar in pattern, unusual fruit.
Devil Fruit!!
Roy was taken aback, and suddenly realized what this fruit was.
Barrier fruit.
This is what belongs to Bartolomeo.
"Congratulations, Barto!"
To be honest, Roy used to want to have the ability of a Devil Fruit, but now he has a system, so he is not interested in Devil Fruits.
Besides, those who are capable have the weakness of being afraid of the sea.
All he wants now is to become stronger step by step and build himself into a real invincible powerhouse with no weaknesses.
β¦β¦
No wind bands.
This is a special zone in the world of pirates, a ribbon area on both sides of the great fairway that prevailed in the Age of Discovery, and since there is no wind, it is very dangerous for daily navigation.
What's more, there are a large number of sea kings living in the windless zone, which increases its danger and makes it a very challenging area in the pirate world.
Very few pirates choose to travel through the windless zone to the Great Passage.
This behavior is a dead end for many people.
Except for the Navy.
Under the research of naval scientists, known as the world's greatest scientists who are known as 500 years beyond human wisdom, Vegapunk found that as long as the warship is equipped with sea building stones, the sea kings will think that the warship is exuding the breath of the sea, so that the navy can smoothly pass through the windless zone, and the great shipping route will lead to the four seas.
The problem of the main Sea King attack was solved, and the other problems were not difficult problems at all for the technologically developed navy.
Speaking of which, this is also a unique means of the Navy.
After all, the Hailou Stone loaded on warships is in such a huge demand that I am afraid that only the Navy can provide it.
As for the other forces, it is unlikely that this condition will be constituted.
Straight to the point.
At this time in the East China Sea, a warship was sailing in the direction of the windless zone.
This warship, unlike the warship on which Smoker departed, was larger and more magnificent, enough to carry hundreds or nearly a thousand people.
If Smoker had been here, he would have realized it immediately......
Only a vice admiral-level leader is qualified to command such a ship.
In other words, on this gigantic warship, at least ...... There is also a Navy top brass with the rank of vice admiral.
"Lieutenant General Karp, we're about to enter the windless zone!"
A young naval soldier saluted a muscular old man.
Whether it was his demeanor or his movements, the soldiers showed great respect for the old man.
As a naval hero, Iron Fist Karp is undoubtedly the childhood idol of countless people on this sea.
It is no exaggeration to say that many people have joined the Navy because of the great contributions that Karp has made to the Navy over the years.
"Hmm."
Karp nodded and waved.
A group of soldiers understood and quickly retreated, far away from him, leaving him alone at the very front of the deck of the warship, pondering against the wind, and a few images flashed in their minds.
"Luffy went to sea?!"
"A bounty of 30 million Baileys, hehe...... This kid is still far off. β
"You're coming back for him?"
"Of course, although it is only one aspect, but no matter what, you should not miss the growth of your son...... Isn't it? Dad!! β
Karp came back to his senses from his deep thoughts, a hint of worry in his eyes.
As a naval hero, he made many contributions to peace in this sea and the world.
However, it was because of his busyness that he missed out on his family.
He didn't know if it was right or wrong!
The son became the leader of the revolutionary army and was the most vicious criminal in the world.
His two grandsons, as if they were destined, went to sea one after another to become pirates.
One of them is already a captain-level figure under the command of the Four Emperors.
The other has just gone to sea, and as soon as he went to sea, he reached a reward of 30 million Baileys, setting a new high in the East China Sea......
Sadly, none of his descendants inherited his will.
Navy!
Is it really that unbearable?
"Report, Vice Admiral Karp, we found a pirate ship up ahead."
Suddenly, a shout made him raise his eyebrows.
"Pirate ships?"
Karp looked in the direction the soldier said, and sure enough, he saw a fairly good ship, with pirate patterns painted on the sails, and a brand new hull, which seemed to be a pirate ship that had just been out to sea.
With his many years of experience, it can naturally be seen that the pirates on this ship must be a group of "recruits".
Karp asked, "Have you found out who they are?" β
"Vengeance Vanguardβ"
When the soldier saw the words on the hull, he shook his head and said, "I've never heard of this ship, it should be a group of nobodies." β
