Chapter 36: Familiarity

Then there was Merlin, it had only been two days, and even with the assistance of the enhanced potion provided by Roland, her progress could not be too great.

However, at least it is enough to start practicing with a wooden sword.

As for the pirates, they also gradually got used to life on Roland's ship, and after realizing that Roland really just treated them as ordinary crew members and not slaves, their spirits relaxed a lot.

……

At this time, a former pirate crew member suddenly shouted-

"Captain Roland! Discover the island ahead! ”

"Well, I see," Roland replied calmly, although he was not on the lookout, but with his magnetic field sensing skills, he already knew that the island was not far away.

However, compared to Roland's calmness, the others seemed a little excited.

Waji put away his rod and headed into the cabin, where he was about to strap on his huge basket.

Merlin also stopped exercising, and also walked to the cabin, if she wanted to land on the island, she had to change her sweaty clothes.

The pirates were also a little hot-eyed, but when they realized that they were no longer pirates and could no longer rob, their enthusiasm dissipated a lot.

……

Compared to the previous two islands, this island was much smaller, and to be honest, Roland didn't have the idea of encountering monsters here.

Roughly speaking, the degree of greenery on the island is quite high, and even if there are villages, it should be relatively simple.

In addition, the island is surrounded by cliffs, and you can only see a narrow slope in the shape of a canyon to get to the island.

For some reason, Roland always had a feeling that this place was familiar, maybe it was a place that appeared in the anime.

However, the difference between watching it in anime and seeing it with your own eyes is not small, and Roland is also a little uncertain.

Roland controlled the ship to stop nearby, and after letting Waji drop anchor, the people who had already packed up were ready to land on the island.

Standing on the deck, Roland looked at the group of pirates and said, "Next, Merlin, Vaji, and I will go to the island to check on the situation, and as for you, just stay on the ship." ”

After a pause, Roland continued, "Of course, I don't mind if you take the opportunity to sail away, anyway, when the poison strikes, you will know the consequences of doing so." ”

"Rest assured, Captain Roland, we won't run away," the group of pirates hurriedly said, they didn't dare to try a gamble that might put their lives on the line.

"Also, if I come back and find that your former captain is gone...... You know," Roland continued.

After that, he said no more and got off the boat with Merlin and Waji.

Standing on the soft sand, Roland couldn't help but smile slightly, "I finally stepped on the ground again, and it feels good." ”

"Roar! (That's what I'm going to say!) "Vaji shouted, and of all the creatures on board, he probably hated the life of wandering on the sea the most, right?

Merlin grinned as well, "This is my first time on other islands, and I don't know what I'll encounter, so I'm looking forward to it." ”

"In that case, it's not on Waji's shoulders, let's explore as we go, forget about the troubles of your hometown for a while, and enjoy the new world," Roland said as he slowly walked down the ramp.

"Hmm," Merlin nodded, chasing after Roland.

Waji scratched his head and followed, but he preferred to find plenty of food rather than exploring the new world.

……

Roland and the others had not been gone for long, and suddenly, a large group of villagers with various farm tools ran in front of them, and the momentum was menacing.

However, when Roland saw them, they also saw the situation on Roland's side, to be precise, it was the situation of Waji!

Their formidable momentum instantly deflated, and they all looked at Vaji in a cold sweat.

In this case, Roland naturally stopped and pouted, "Really, it seems that Waji scared them." ”

"You're going to be scared, right?" Mei Lin whispered on the side, "When I first saw it, I was also startled, and I thought it was a monster attacking the village. ”

"Roar! (Can I be blamed for this?) Isn't it that humans are too timid? Waji said with a look of displeasure.

"Don't think so, that's what people are like here, and in some places, the first thing people think when they see you is how to eat you," Roland decided to correct Waji's inflated attitude.

While they were chatting, the villagers were whispering.

"Look! I'm not lying this time, am I? There really are monsters invading! One of the young boys spoke, smug on his face.

"Indeed, you got it right once," the middle-aged man next to him said softly, "but ......"

Another woman next to him, who looked to be about thirty years old, took his words and continued, "But I hope you're lying this time......

"......" The little boy fell silent when he heard this, not knowing what he was thinking.

Suddenly, the middle-aged man shouted at Roland, "Who the hell are you?" What did you want to do on this island? And what is that giant ape? Is it a monster?! ”

"If you want to fight, I advise you to give up!" Before Roland could answer, the little boy suddenly shouted, startling the surrounding villagers.

But he had no intention of stopping, and continued, "Although you have huge monsters, we also have powerful helpers! That's a 100-meter-tall guy! If you don't want to die, get out of here! ”

"What stupid are you talking about? Who would believe such a thing? The villagers next to him all looked at the little boy speechlessly.

And Roland was also speechless.

This familiar clumsy lie, and the little boy's familiar long nose, isn't it Usopp!!

Although he was still a child.

After Nami, I finally met the people of the protagonist group again, Roland was in a good mood, and he was not in a hurry to solve the misunderstanding, and continued to speak, "A hundred meters of big guys? Is there really something that huge? ”

The villagers were all stunned, weren't they, there were really fools who would believe such nonsense?

Watty and Merlin didn't have any idea of this kind of thing, but they didn't think they had anything to worry about when they left it to Roland.

"Of course!" Usopp shouted again, "I advise you to surrender immediately, otherwise, the powerful hundred-meter-tall Usopp robot will not let you go!" ”

"Usopp robots? It's a lie, right? Roland said happily.

Usopp couldn't help but hold his head in his hands, "Ah! It's been recognized! ”

"He said 'I've been recognized,' right?" Merlin was very straightforward.

"Ahh I accidentally said, 'I've been recognized'! Usopp shouted again, his face shattered.
