Chapter 32: Return to Windmill Town
Something strange happened in Rogue today.
For half a year, the demon boy who never left a living mouth under his hands actually pulled a boatload of live pirates back, even though they all fell into a coma.
One by one, the navy firmly cuffed the pirates on the ship, and dragged them down one by one.
Luffy followed the colonel from the naval base to the Treasury Department, ready to settle Jaelsen's bounty.
Jaelsen's body was handed over, and there were some more troublesome steps to approve in the settlement of the bounty.
The Admiral of Rogue Town took the opportunity to invite Luffy to his office for a seat.
Rog Town Naval Base, inside the office of the Supreme Commander.
The Colonel handed Luffy a cup of freshly brewed tea with both hands, and complimented him with respect, "Congratulations, little brother Luffy, you have once again killed a sea thief."
It's really reassuring to have a strong man like you in Rogue Town! ”
Luffy took the tea, took two sips casually, and replied to the colonel, "The colonel said that he was laughing, but he just took what he needed." ”
Then Luffy gave the Colonel a meaningful look and continued, "After all, Colonel, you never owe me my bounty..."
"Uh...... Yes... Ha ha... Of course, of course," the colonel laughed awkwardly.
Half a year ago, Luffy came here for the first time with the corpse of a small pirate to exchange for a bounty, but the naval base deducted Luffy's bounty on the grounds that he was too young.
Then an angry Luffy punched the gate of the naval base.
At that time, the entire navy of the entire base was taken aback.
In the end, it was also the Navy Colonel who learned about the situation and severely punished the Navy who deducted the bounty in order not to anger the powerful Luffy.
The colonel coughed, not wanting to say anything more about that embarrassing thing, and said to Luffy, "I don't know if Luffy's little brother is interested in becoming a navy that guards justice?"
I don't dare to say anything else, if you come to be in the navy, I can apply to be transferred back to the headquarters.
When the time comes, you will be the supreme commander of this base. ”
I have to say that this naval colonel is also a good officer who sincerely serves the people.
He had recently received news that the headquarters might call him back for further study before sending another naval colonel from the headquarters to take up his post.
In his impression, most of the people in the Navy Headquarters are second-generation officials, and the real elite will not come to such a small place.
And during this time, through his observations, he found that although Luffy was ruthless, he never bullied ordinary people.
And Luffy is really merciless in his treatment of bad guys, and now no one in the town dares to do bad things at all, even sliding doors and picking locks, petty theft is rarely seen.
Rogue Town needs such a good official who is both strong and vicious to the enemy and friendly to the people.
He wanted to keep Luffy in Rogue Town, and then use his old seniority as the supreme commander of Rogue Town to put pressure on his superiors and promote Luffy.
It's a pity that he really picked the wrong person.
"I'm sorry, Colonel, I'm used to being alone, so I can only refuse your kindness." Luffy bluntly refused.
"Well," the colonel sighed, and said with some frustration, "well. ”
After two more sips of tea, Luffy said directly, "If there is nothing else, I'll go back and rest first." With that, he stood up and prepared to leave.
The colonel got up to see him off, and said with some reluctance: "Okay, but if you change your mind, you can come to me at any time." ”
When I came to the Ministry of Finance, the bounty had already been prepared here.
With that, Luffy took a bag of money and walked towards the inn near the port.
When I returned to the door of the hotel, I just saw that the boss was also preparing to go out.
Luffy stopped the boss and said, "Boss, our rent should be due soon... It just so happened that today I was packing up and getting ready to leave. ”
When the boss heard this, he immediately panicked and hurriedly said, "'What's wrong?'" Brother Luffy! Why go!
If you are not satisfied, just mention it, if you don't like that room, you can choose the room in this hotel, I promise not to charge a penny! ”
The boss is really in a hurry.
You must know that since everyone knows that the demon boy Luffy lives in this hotel, his hotel's hotel has been directly designated as the "most beautiful hotel" in Rogue Town.
Luffy kills, but all the bad guys he kills.
For the ordinary people of Rogue Town, especially those who do small business in peace, Luffy is their patron saint.
Now if the Patronus left because he was not well received, then he would have the heart to die.
"It's not the hotel's problem, it's that I have something to get out of here.
Let's probably leave tonight. Luffy explained.
The boss didn't dare to say anything more when he heard this, so he had to reply in a low voice: "Okay." ”
In the evening of the same day.
Luffy packed up his salute and took a few large clothes he bought in the afternoon, carrying a bag containing Sauron, to a dock in the harbor.
In the past six months, all the pirate ships that Luffy obtained have been sold to this dock, and now Luffy's deposit is almost 50 million Bailey.
As soon as he entered the shipyard, Luffy saw the old boatman who often communicated with him.
When he learned that Luffy wanted a small sailboat, the old man didn't say a word and gave Luffy one directly.
He also said that if he took money, he would look down on him.
In this way, Luffy got on the boat sent by someone else and headed for his hometown.
At night, the stars are dotted and the lights are blurred.
A huge full moon hangs high in the sky, shining brightly and unusually clean.
The sea surface is sparkling, and there is no wind or waves.
Fixing the direction of the ship's sailing, Luffy walked into the cabin.
"System, how many gold coins do I have now?"
[The host currently has 6,300 gold coins.] 】
"Six thousand three?"
It looks like it's still a dark gray equipment slot.
"Alas!" Luffy sighed, "It seems that I don't have to think about my equipment for a short time." ”
At present, Luffy has seen the cheapest among the random items, which is last month's Dolan Ring, which can add a hundred spiritual attributes, and it will also be sold for a high price of 5,000 gold coins.
"Buy me three fast-growing capsules."
[The purchase was successful, it has been put into the backpack, please check.] 】
Luffy took three capsules out of his backpack, stripped naked, and ate them all in one go.
This time, Luffy finally felt it, and obviously felt that he was growing taller.
"Hmmm! It's almost one meter three or four. After finding a reference and comparing it, Luffy muttered to himself.
I found an elegant dark blue vest and a pair of handsome light yellow shorts.
Plus Luffy's cute smile and calm eyes.
A handsome little guy in the wind of Yushu was born.
"Sister Magino, they'll be surprised! Hahahaha..."
Luffy couldn't help but smile at the thought of meeting the village chief and Magino soon.
It's been a year.
The night sky, like the endless transparent sea, is quiet, vast and mysterious.
Luffy just like that, in the midst of missing and expectation, fell asleep peacefully.
