Chapter 7: The Storm is Coming
Early in the morning, through the window, the wind and rain were howling, and although Luffy frowned, he still put on his raincoat and opened the door to take the first step.
The howling wind and rain blew so hard that Lu Fei couldn't open his eyes.
Luffy was glad that the weight-bearing lead block was still somewhat useful.
Karp looked through the window at Luffy, who was being baptized by the storm, "Is this really my Luffy?" β
"Hey~"
Sakasky, who was about to go to sea to exterminate pirates in a certain area, was about to land on a warship with his subordinates, and when he heard the sound, he looked.
Sakasky recognized Luffy at a glance.
"Leave him alone."
"But a child on a stormy day?"
"If you want to become a navy that defends justice, if you can't withstand this little wind and rain, you can't talk about a real navy."
Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·
On the way back, Luffy bumps into Drake.
Drake also had a dozen younger brothers with him, apparently prepared.
Seeing this, Luffy frowned and said, "Drake, you bully a child as an adult, and you're embarrassed to say that you're a navy?" β
Hearing this, Drake immediately became angry, "Give me it!" β
In his current form, Luffy has no choice but to transform into a great ape.
The sudden appearance of a large ape in the settlement is sure to cause a commotion.
But Luffy and Drake's battle has just begun.
"Little minion, get out of here!!"
Luffy, the big ape, slapped Drake's group of little brothers to the ground.
"Roarββββ
Drake didn't hesitate and transformed into a Tyrannosaurus rex.
Drake had eaten deflated in front of Luffy, so he would naturally be wary of Luffy's air moves.
"So fast."
Luffy reacted, Drake had already arrived in front of him, and with a move Tyrannosaurus swung its tail, directly tripping Luffy to the ground.
"Look at the move!!"
Hearing this, Drake looked stunned.
Drake didn't expect Smoker to come to the meeting.
Smoker's ten hands, when the head was drunk, was a heavy blow, and almost knocked Drake into a concussion.
"Look at the punch!!"
In the blink of an eye, King Kong vs. Tyrannosaurus Rex, a left hook, a right hook, both hands clenched into a hammer, and hit Drake's head hard.
Drake, whose eyes are full of Venus, can no longer maintain this Tyrannosaurus rex form, and voluntarily transforms back to human form.
Although Luffy and Smoker teamed up to give Drake a concussion, they didn't necessarily end well.
"Is this a residential area, a place for you to fight?!"
"Call me a parent?!"
Soon, the man shrugged up.
"Lieutenant General Karp."
"Major General Rogge."
Karp grinned, "Doesn't it need to be so serious for children to fight? β
"Yes."
"It's not serious."
The voice was unkind.
With the appearance of Barrelus, Luffy couldn't help frowning.
Rog was still a little afraid of Barrerus, he knew that Barreirus was very hard backstage and went straight to the five old stars.
But Karp's hob meat is not easy to mess with, and it is armed as soon as it comes up, "Barrelus, I heard that you care a lot about the position of the old man, the lieutenant general?" β
As soon as Karp's fist was revealed, Barreurus was completely convinced.
Karp can be more legendary than today's Admiral Sengoku.
After all, this is a man who has repeatedly refused to be promoted to general.
Afterwards, Luffy was praised by Karp, but in the face of Zefa, there was a burst of criticism, and it was still a very harsh criticism.
Landing on a warship.
Luffy looked puzzled and asked, "Teacher, where are we going?" β
Zefa said with a straight face: "I will take you to experience the life that your fathers have experienced, and this will be the first battle of your life." β
"What?"
When he came back to his senses, Luffy looked shocked.
Zefa is going to take them to exterminate the pirates.
Of course, there were so many children present, and Luffy was not the only one who panicked.
"I can finally show off my skills." Smoker was overjoyed.
"Boring."
Peach Rabbit was not interested at all.
Dusty burst into tears.
Luffy came back to his senses, adjusted his mentality, and plucked up his courage to say, "Teacher, will it be a little early?" β
Zefa also knew that it was indeed cruel to let these children, who were on average less than fourteen years old, face the most vicious pirates.
Of course, Zefa also has his own ideas.
Zefa wants to use this experience to eliminate those children who are not qualified or do not have the ability to become a strong army, or give them a different education, which can be regarded as being responsible for their lives and future.
Before the warship started, Zefa still had a chance to give these children a chance to choose their lives.
Zefa said slowly: "Now you can choose to stay or leave, I will not force you." β
As soon as Zefa's voice fell, half of the moment was missing.
However, Zefa was not annoyed, but spoke up again: "I will give you half an hour, when the time comes, it is useless to regret it." β
Luffy didn't hesitate, just find a place to sit down, and wait for the warship to start.
"I didn't expect you to stay."
Luffy looked up and saw that it was Peach Rabbit.
This is the second time Luffy has seen Peach Rabbit.
Luffy knows that Peach Rabbit is known as "Black Widow" and can't get close.
"I just want to see the world." Luffy said with a smirk.
"See the world." Peach Rabbit looked playful: "Don't die." β
Luffy didn't expect that Peach Rabbit was there, and he didn't dare to breathe.
"What a strange woman?"
As soon as Luffy's words fell, Smoker came to the door.
Looking at Smoker who was holding ten hands, Luffy hurriedly said in a loud voice: "Smoker, I warn you not to mess around?" β
Smoker really wanted to fight Luffy and be ashamed, but now that Zefa is on this warship, he doesn't have the guts.
"I want you to join us." Smoker said.
In fact, as Luffy expected, these scouts are all going with the navy, at best they are shooters, and they can slip away when they see that the situation is not good.
"Teacher, why Donghai?"
"The pirates of the East China Sea are relatively gentle, and for you, it is suitable for you to experience."
Zefa's words made Luffy scorched on the outside and tender on the inside, since he was speechless.
"Keep up, don't be left behind."
As soon as he got off the warship, Luffy's scouts were urged by the seasoned navy.
When night came, and Luffy was set up camp, Luffy was not less busy.
"Luffy, do you think a gun can deal with pirates?" Smoker couldn't help but laugh out loud as he looked at Luffy, who had been on high alert, and clutched a gun as tall as him.
Luffy knows that a person with natural fruit abilities like Smoker, even if he encounters a vicious pirate, as long as he doesn't know how to arm, he will run fast enough, and he will basically not fall.
Luffy is different, the fruit has many defects in ability, transforming into a big ape, although it can increase its strength tenfold, but it is a large size, and the gun in the hands of the pirates is a live target.
