Chapter 552: Smoker's Change (3/4)
Rog Town, Naval Base.
"And then? What do you want to do? ”
Sitting on the large couch, Ron crossed his legs and a cigar in his hand.
Although there was no expression of questioning, and the tone was extremely soft, the sense of oppression brought by the brilliant achievements made the two swallow their saliva nervously, and they did not dare to raise their heads to look at him.
After all, you must know that this is a killing of the Four Emperors BIG· MOM's monsters!!
Before the news was issued, Kirby and Nami had no idea what the Four Emperors were.
Smoker only used a very simple comparison to make them understand the horror of the Four Emperors.
"The pirate with the highest bounty in the East China Sea, the 'Pirate Admiral' Ah Jin, you know that there is a bounty of 40 million, right?"
The two nodded.
The bounty of 40 million is double that of the evil dragon two years ago!
Although because of the gradual deepening of their understanding, they knew that the evil dragon had not increased the bounty under the protection of Colonel Rat, the 16th branch of the East China Sea Navy, so as not to attract the attention of some terrible beings in the Great Route, so they could not exchange the bounty for strength.
But double it, and it's estimated to be about the same.
"Pirate Admiral" Ah Jin is a guy as terrifying as a dragon!
However......
"In front of the Four Emperors, he can't even get a lowest-level cadre."
"In that sea area of the New World, if the captain's bounty does not exceed 100 million, he will not be treated seriously at all. Even the navy won't bother with these little pirates. ”
Small...... Little Pirates?!!
The two of them were shaken to the ground.
The "Pirate Admiral" Ah Jin, who made a name for himself in the East China Sea, made Vice Admiral Stornobeli, who once split a 300-meter-long super-large pirate ship with a sword, be helpless for a while, turned out to be just a little pirate?!!
But that's not all.
"And the Four Emperors, above all the pirates! There is no way to define a threat with a bounty! ”
"One day, I will prove myself like him!"
The two of them didn't hear the last sentence of Smoker, they only remembered one.
"Above all pirates!"
Not only the East China Sea, but also the West Sea, the North Sea, and the South China Sea, the first half and the second half of the Great Shipping Route.
All the pirates in the world combined, the four monsters who also bow down to them, and call them the "Four Emperors"!
Before, the two knew that the sky was very high.
Right now.
They can only think that the sky is high.
"Knowing" means knowing how high the sky is.
"Think", proof can only be imagined by imagination.
There is no doubt that Ron, who is sitting in front of them at the moment, is the terrifying existence who "does not know the sky".
In the face of inquiry, Kirby, who was already tall and capable, clenched his calloused fist and hesitated: "I'm sorry Lieutenant General, I want to ......"
He's too weak!
Originally, in order to help the great benefactor Lieutenant General Canglong, Kebi chose to stay in the East China Sea to sharpen himself and not cause him trouble.
But now in comparison, Kirby found that he was still weaker than he imagined.
But at this moment, Nami said loudly, "We want to go to the Great Voyage!" ”
Kirby looked up in surprise and saw that Nami's eyes were still so bright.
Knowing the horror of the road ahead, Kirby hesitated and flinched, but Nami didn't, she still longed for the great voyage and the wider world as usual.
In contrast, Kirby hung his head with low self-esteem.
Seeing this, Ron swept to the window and smoked a cigar with a speechless face...... Smoker, who smoked two at the same time, cast a "how did you raise a good seedling" look.
Smoker lifted his chin to signal Nami's presence.
"No contrast, no harm."
Kirby is undoubtedly talented, but compared to the "genius girl" Nami, the gap between the two is so conspicuous.
Nami is the only one of her peers who is familiar with her, so you can imagine how much pressure Kirby has been living in.
If it weren't for his warm temperament and hope to repay his kindness, he would have seen through the red dust and become a monk.
"I have to find a way to rebuild this child's confidence."
Ron pondered silently.
For a short time, Kirby was of no use to him.
But don't be so short-sighted, in the long run, Kirby is very likely to become a major member of the Navy!
Unless he will go through the journey again, staying in this world for a long time, there are some reserve talents who can undoubtedly reduce a lot of trouble.
With that in mind, Ron slapped his face.
"There's momentum, I agree."
Kirby, Nami: "......"
It's so easy?!
"Lieutenant General Canglong, don't you want to ask us why?"
"Actually, I'm not the same as this idiot."
Nami rubbed her hands together and her cheeks flushed. The little girl's posture made Ron, who was full of female power in his memory, feel uncomfortable for a while.
In the original book, Nami is so shy every time......
It's all when she wants to trick people!
If you don't pit your opponent, you pit your teammates!
So he decisively refused.
"No, it's not necessary."
"What's wrong with wanting to see the wider world? Since you are not afraid of death, I will not stop you. ”
"After Smoker finishes arranging the affairs of the East China Sea, he will leave to return to the headquarters, and you can just join him then."
As for how the Straw Hats' Destiny lineup is assembled...... Ron said it's my business.
Like Kirby, for a short period of time, Ron couldn't see that Luffy had any use for himself.
Without the help of Nami, a navigator, maybe with a little more setback, he would have grown into a strong man in his favor one day earlier.
"Huh? How can you ...... like this?"
Nami looked dejected and muttered something inaudible.
Kirby clenched his fists and was about to say something, but Ron interrupted him and said, "After going to the headquarters to keep the file, you go directly to my G10 branch to report, and I will personally arrange your training session." ”
"I ......"
After a moment of silence, Kirby looked up firmly.
"I see, thank you Lieutenant General Canglong!"
"It's fine."
"After all, the pirates in the East China Sea are too weak, and a large army can't kill you at all, so there's no point in fighting without danger."
"Rest assured, the last thing in the great voyage is monsters!"
Kirby: "......"
Σ(?д?; )!
Reassure me what the hell!
Give me back my touch, bastard!
"Alright, so be it."
Extinguishing the finished cigar in the ashtray, Ron raised his hand: "Smoker, I have a step ahead." When you come back to the headquarters, I'll treat you to dinner. ”
"Lieutenant General Canglong is polite, in terms of position, how can I let you invite me to dinner!"
Ron gave him a serious look and said with a smile, "It's a good thing that you've really become Colonel Smoker." ”
Compared with Smoker in the second volume of the original book, he is now a little more sleek, more like a mature and assertive navy.
The establishment of the Independent Commission Against Corruption and the reorganization of the Navy's assassination unit appear to have had a great influence on it.
The reason why the support rate of the hawkish Red Inu has not been as good as that of the pheasant is because he is not familiar with the world...... Or that they don't want to be in the company of gutless rats.
But in this world, there are only a few real heroes after all.
The rat generation is the mainstream of the world.
"Perhaps, is it really that easy to distinguish between good and bad?"
Smoker didn't want to talk about it and ended hastily.
