Chapter 12: Sauron
"Don't make a fuss! Luffy! The captain shouted anxiously, pulled the sailor who ran by, and said, "Take this boy to safety." ”
After saying that, he hurried to other places.
The sailor who was called over looked confused, and then bent down to pick up Luffy.
Luffy hurriedly jumped away, joking, how could he always be treated like a child, even though he was indeed a child.
Luffy said to the sailor, "Brother sailor, you go and help, I know where to go." ”
Regardless of the sailor's expression, Luffy ran away.
"This time it's going to be a bumper harvest, and sure enough, the sea is the best way to become stronger." Luffy grinds his fists and prepares for a big battle with the Pirates.
However, the heavens did not grant the wish.
In the end, the merchant ship, under the clever command of the captain, successfully escaped the pursuit of the pirates.
Luffy was helpless, "This is not the script I want." ”
Watching the pirate ship carrying a large wave of experience fall farther and farther away, Luffy stood at the stern of the ship and really wanted to cry without tears.
"Luffy, why are you still here?"
The relieved captain was checking the hull to see if it was going or bad, and just happened to see Luffy with his feet off the ground, his hands on the railing, and staring at Luffy in the distance.
Seeing that Luffy's eyes seemed to be a little moist, the captain came over and patted Luffy and said, "Good, it's safe, don't be afraid." ”
The captain's heavy hand slapped on Luffy's body, and the morning sun behind him rose faintly, forming a beautiful picture with Luffy's pitiful eyes.
In this way, Luffy spent a few days sailing on the calm sea.
The merchant ship docked at the port of Frostmoon Village.
"Luffy, do you remember where your home is?"
The captain asked Luffy, pointing to the villagers' residential area.
"Don't worry, Uncle Captain, thank you for sending me here." Luffy waved his hand, didn't listen to the captain's concern anymore, and walked straight towards the village.
When he came to the village, Luffy saw an uncle selling fruit on the side of the road, walked up to him, and asked, "Uncle, do you know how to get to the Yishin Gym in Frost Moon Village?"
The fruit seller was bored and almost asleep, and he didn't notice Luffy coming, and was startled by Luffy's sudden sound.
"Huh?! Yes?... What ,......"
Luffy, who was completely blocked by the fruit, stretched out his hand and said, "I'm here......"
Is it so sad to be small?
The boss who finally found Luffy smiled awkwardly and said, "Little friend, what's the matter with you?" Do you want to buy fruit?"
Luffy responded, "I want to inquire about how to get there." ”
"Oh, the Ichishin Gym, that's amazing.
There were a lot of kids there, but this was the first time I've seen such a young uncle as you.
You just have to follow this avenue of the village, keep walking, about two kilometers out of the village, and you can see it. ”
After listening to the boss's answer, Luffy found that the Yishin Gym was not difficult to find, but it was a bit of a long way.
Then let's hurry up. Luffy thought to himself.
After saying thank you to the owner of the fruit stall, Luffy walked along the main road of the village.
Luffy wasn't in a hurry, in fact, Luffy already had an answer in his heart, after all, Zoro was already two years older than Luffy.
In the original book, when Guina died, Sauron was almost six or seven years old.
It's very likely that nothing will change this trip, but there are some things that you can't stop doing because you know the result, so Luffy came to Frostmoon Village on purpose.
Inside the Ichishin Gym. Training ground.
A green-haired teenager was hanging a heavy object in his hands, and he was also biting a rope in his mouth, and at the lower end of the rope, a large stone was tied.
The young man kept squatting while holding a heavy object, covered with sweat, but his eyes had no intention of stopping.
More than an hour later, the green-haired boy stopped training and was about to rest for a while when there was a sound of footsteps in the distance.
A child in a white martial arts uniform hurriedly ran to Zoro and took a few long breaths loudly.
After a pause, he said, "Senior Brother Zoro, it's not good! There's a kid to kick the gym! ”
Zoro blinked and said, "Kick the gym? Is he very good at swordsmanship?"
The young man in martial arts replied: "No, he just holds a knife and can't use it at all, but his strength is very great, and many senior brothers have been defeated." ”
"Let's go, let's see!" Zoro said as he put away his training tools.
Inside the gym.
Luffy controlled his strength, flew a wooden sword, and then with a wave of his hand, he put the wooden sword on the neck of the child opposite.
"I conceded."
Luffy withdrew his wooden sword and saluted.
"Smack, smack, smack..."
There was a burst of applause, and Koshiro clapped his hands and praised: "What a hero out of a young man!" ”
Luffy's eyes looked over and saw that it was Koshiro who came, and hurriedly made a junior salute.
After all, Koshiro has the ability of a great swordsman, and unlike Shanks's freedom, this kind of strong man is still an old-fashioned strong man, and it is appropriate to give some respect, and it is not strange to have many people.
"Senior Miao praised, I'm just a little stronger."
Koshiro smiled slightly when he saw Luffy's etiquette, and seemed to approve of Luffy's appearance and said, "To be able to achieve such a high achievement at such a young age with the body of an ordinary human, you are the second one I have ever seen in my life." ”
Although I can't tell Luffy's specific age, with such a small figure, no matter how you look at it, he is still a child.
After listening to Koshiro's words, Luffy thought to himself: 'The second? The first one was Zoro. It seems that Koshiro still didn't count Guina. ’
Let's just see if Guina will show up for a while, and if she does, she will stay here for a while.
"The second?" Luffy had a confused expression, mixed with doubt, disbelief and other emotions.
Lu's performance method, show time.
Koshiro replied, "It's my big disciple of the Gym, I just saw someone looking for him, and he should be back soon." ”
"Well, I'm looking forward to this encounter." Luffy didn't perform this sentence, he was looking forward to it from the heart.
After a while.
Koshiro, who was sitting quietly, moved his eyes and stood up.
Luffy didn't feel anything, and after a few seconds, Luffy heard the sound of footsteps "stampeding".
"Should I say that he is worthy of being a great swordsman? I don't know if it's hearing or seeing and hearing domineering, but it's very strong. ”
Zoro rushed into the house, and when he saw Koshiro, he shouted loudly, "Master, where is the kicker!" ”
In Zoro's heart, this kind of thing was done by Guina in the past, but now that Guina is gone, he will take over her work.
Koshiro frowned and said, "Zoro, don't be reckless, what kind of system!" ”
Luffy smiled and said, "It's okay, Koshiro-senpai." ”
After a pause, Luffy said again, "Your name is Zoro, isn't it?" Why don't you give it a try? ”
Looking at Luffy's little man and his irregular sword-gripping technique, Zoro couldn't help but feel contempt.
From the back shelf, he took out three wooden knives and said in a strange pronunciation: "Come!" Let me teach you a lesson! ”
