Chapter 410: The Kingdom of Goa
β.. What an amazing compliment. Fang Xing said, "But in the end... Speaking of this man all of a sudden, what are you trying me to do? β
Although Fang Xing was a little surprised when he heard Sauron, it was only surprised. He did not object to what Koshiro said. Sauron is indeed a tough swordsman, and with a so-called aura attached to his tenacity and hard work, it can be said that he can make rapid progress in every desperate situation. But.. When the two were talking, Zoro shouldn't have been mentioned, but Koshiro said it, what did he want to explain?
Koshiro seemed to have thought of Fang Xing's question, and replied with a prepared answer, "I think you'll have a chance to run into him." β
"How?"
"He is pursuing the strongest path, so with your swordsmanship, you will one day become his challenge."
"So, you mean you want me to release water when I meet him?" Fang Xing tried to ask, this was the answer he thought was the most appropriate, and it was also the most likely, when his disciple might encounter a powerful swordsman, worrying about his safety was something that an ordinary teacher would worry about.
Koshiro shook his head and gave the exact opposite, "No, I hope you can use your strength to make him realize his inadequacy. Sometimes defeat is a growth for a person. β
"Defeat does make people grow." Fang Xing agreed, but his eyes froze, and his red eyes looked at Koshiro's slightly smiling cheeks, and he suddenly said, "But you have to know that in the battle between swordsmen, defeat may cost your life, aren't you worried about the life of your disciple?" β
Not worried? No, how could it not be worried. Koshiro's face sank, and the smile on his face also narrowed slightly, looking a little heavy, which he rarely revealed.
"Worried." Koshiro said, "But if the worry can really work, then the worry is too cheap." If you want to become the strongest swordsman in the world, you are destined to confront the swordsmen in the world, and this road is destined to be full of thorns. As a teacher, all I can do is support me behind the scenes. β
Evoking this topic, Fang Xing put an end to this topic again.
"Worry, I don't think your worry is necessary."
Koshiro was stunned for a moment, and he suddenly asked, "Do you know Zoro?" β
Fang Xing's words seemed to be to say again, you don't need to worry about Zoro anymore, I think he has the potential to become the strongest, all you have to do is support silently, that's why he asked like this.
"Uhhh Not really. And I guess you misunderstood me. Fang Xing said.
"But you didn't mean... Do not worry. β
"I mean, you don't have to worry on my side, I'm not prepared to be the strongest swordsman, and I'm not ready to be his challenge. It's too discordant for me to fight and kill or something. β
Koshiro's eyes froze a little, the strong performance just now, plus the rumored fierce young man, here he said harmony, this style is a bit strange. Not only is there a problem here, but more importantly...
"The strongest swordsman in the world is not obtained by escaping, even if you are not ready to become the target of his challenge, one day... Challenges will also come, and you can't avoid them. Koshiro said firmly.
β.. Then I challenge you. Fang Xing then said.
"Well, I can't beat you at all. Koshiro said evasively.
"But didn't you say you couldn't avoid the challenge, but you did. Then when the time comes, I'll just avoid it like you. And you just said it, there is a chance to run into me, you seem natural when you say this, you actually know, you know my whereabouts, because you know where I am, so you dare to be so sure, but I'm curious, how did you know, or how did you know. β
Koshiro smiled awkwardly, not wanting to answer the question, and he skipped the topic with a few strange calls.
After that, the two of them chatted for a while about some aspects, but no matter what Fang Xing said, Koshiro would always push away the challenge, as if he was avoiding something.
Fang Xing didn't ask, because he knew that one day it would be revealed.
β¦β¦
Kingdom of Goa
It is a country with distinct class stratifications, where the aristocracy lives an aristocratic life, the regions are governed, the classes are divided, and everyone lives the life that everyone should live.
It is known as the most beautiful country in the East China Sea precisely because it successfully eliminates unnecessary things perfectly, and is a successful example of a "segregated society".
Here, when the ruffians make a mistake, they are ready to be expelled to the garbage island in the outer city, which was eliminated by a fire many years ago. The current Goya Kingdom is synonymous with perfection, even the Celestial Dragons, who are the world's nobles, come here for sightseeing every year, which is enough to reflect the alternative "perfection" that he is sought after.
"Ha, it's the rear admiral of the Navy. I'll arrange a private room for you at once, please here, please here...", the owner of a shop, with a flattering face on his face, greeted warmly.
In the Kingdom of Goa, apart from the nobility, the most noble person is the navy, and even some high-ranking navies have more influence than the nobles, comparable to the royal family. Restaurant owners, who are deeply influenced by these ideas, naturally dare not be negligent, even if they think it is strange, but they do not dare to question it. The rear admiral of the navy, which is comparable to some high-ranking nobles in the Kingdom of Goa, is by no means something he can offend with a person of such status.
And the person he called the Major General was Fang Xing.
He patted his flat stomach and cast his eyes wildly on the pictures displayed in the restaurant, thinking about what he should eat.
After leaving Koshiro's place, he first handed over the grain to you with a smile, and then came here, ready to buy some items. The reason why I chose the relationship between the Goya Kingdom is because after Yixiao moved the island to the sea, the location chosen was not far from the Goa Kingdom.
This was the result of Fang Xing and Yixiao's deliberations, and the vicinity of the Goya Kingdom could be said to be the most dangerous, yet safest. It is said to be the most dangerous, because the Kingdom of Goa is the pearl of the East China Sea, and the attention is higher than that of other countries, in other words, the garrison force is also the strongest, and this is also the homeland of the naval hero Karp, who occasionally returns here, is such a place, for illegal people, it can be called the most dangerous place in the entire East China Sea.
However, this place is also the safest, and because it has the highest attention, it is also the safest. Yixiao has a high combat power, which makes the entire navy on guard, and his appearance here, just exposed to the field of vision, will be reassuring, at least he will not affect the situation in the great route, making the already bad situation even more chaotic.
After coming here, because of the previous propaganda relationship of the navy, especially in the well-informed city of the Kingdom of Goya, almost everyone knew his identity.
Fang Xing also personally felt what is called the fanaticism under the constraints of rules, because the street ahead is the relationship between civilian streets, almost everyone will lower their heads when they see him, whether it is a child, an old man, a woman, or an adult man, people of any age are the same, lowering their heads will not hurt their self-esteem, everything seems so natural.
Even though there was doubt in their eyes, they knew that Fang Xing's identity was a rear admiral of the navy, but it didn't look like it, it should be said that it was enough for a person of this age to be a captain in the navy, let alone a senior rear admiral in the navy? can be questioned and questioned, but no one really raised their own doubts, everyone stuck to the rules, and no one tried to break it.
Fang Xing was sitting in the luxurious box, next to the waitress who was trembling and serving, but the waitress was working, looking up and peeking at this delicate cheek from time to time.
Is such a person a rear admiral? She thought, it doesn't look special, if anything, it's, is he really a boy? This appearance makes any woman feel envious of the cheeks, skin...
While the waitress was thinking about these questions, Fang Xing said while eating the food, "Help me call your boss." β
The waitress was startled, and thought that her peeking action just now was too out of line, so that the other party was angry and wanted to ask the boss for accountability, and hurriedly apologized: "I'm sorry... I shouldn't be secretly watching you, I can't lose this job, I hope you give me a chance, don't look for a boss! β
Her tone seemed bewildered and flustered.
In the kingdom of Goya, if you don't find a job for a long time, you will be banished. Although there are many jobs here, the waitress is not sure whether she will be able to find a job after being fired. Because when looking for the next job, the other party will first find out the reason for your dismissal, and once it is found that she has been fired for offending the rear admiral of the navy, no one will dare to hire a daredevil.
β.. Don't be too nervous. Fang Xing comforted, "I'm just looking for your boss with a problem, and I don't mean to embarrass you." β
The waitress breathed a sigh of relief, there was no need for someone with such an identity to joke with her, she did not slow down, and ran straight towards the boss, the boss at this moment is probably also preparing special food for this honorable rear admiral.
Almost the moment the waitress stepped into the door, a fat looking boss who had greeted Fang Xing before, his hands were still stained with grease from the kitchen, and he ran over before he could clean his hands.
"Your Excellency Major General, are you dissatisfied?"
"Nope." Fang Xing shook his head. By the way, he put the delicious food in his mouth to appease the boss, and after slowly chewing the food in his mouth, he said: "The food is delicious, and I like it too, and the reason why you are here is not because of this." β
"Thisβ" The restaurant owner raised half of his head timidly, and said tentatively, "I wonder how I can help you?" β
He was afraid, afraid of what embarrassing conditions the rear admiral had proposed. It is not uncommon for commoners to offend nobles and be banished, possibly because they are unable to fulfill the strict conditions of the nobility and are "semi-forced" banished. There is nothing impossible for such a situation to happen to the navy, both of which are equally noble.
Fang Xing knew the reason for his attitude, and he didn't intend to continue to be embarrassed, he directly stated the purpose, "I want to know where the nearby ingredient market is." β
The owner of the restaurant wondered why the honorable rear admiral went to find the food market, which should have been considered by the Navy Logistics Department, and not by a rear admiral. But he didn't have the courage to ask the question, he thought for a moment, and replied, "It's just a block south of the city, and if you want to go there, I can take you there." β
"Then I'll bother you." Fang Xing said.
The restaurant owner froze for a moment, but he didn't expect the other party to answer so crisply. Although there are many chefs in this restaurant, he is the only chef who needs to cook, and if he leaves, it means that he will not be able to operate today. He was worried that letting his men take him would anger him, so he said that. He thought for a while, exchanging a day's operating income for peace, how to think about it or earning, and nodded.
"Well, do you have a slave market here?"
"Ha, the Major General is joking again, the slaves here have long been expelled, and only civilians live in this country."
"Is that so?" Fang Xing showed a little annoyance.
When the restaurant owner saw his face, he knew that this was the meaning of dissatisfaction, and he didn't understand what he had said wrong, shouldn't the rear admiral be a peace-loving man? Even if not, I don't like the existence of filthy slaves in a country.
"Major General, is there something wrong?" He asked tentatively.
"I need some logistical personnel on my side, and I was going to solve it in the slave market."
When will slaves also be able to serve as marines? The restaurant owner muttered in his heart, a little resentful in his heart, how could slaves be synonymous with dirtiness in this country, how could they be allowed to be logistics staff? Moreover, the logistics of the navy cannot be dispatched as long as it is reported to the headquarters.
But when he thought about it, the words changed their taste when they reached his mouth, and he exclaimed: "That's really bad, it seems that there was a big war, and the damage was serious, so it would lead to a shortage of logistics and need slaves to replenish it." β
"Sort of." Fang Xing said casually. "So do you have any place here to provide logistic?"
The restaurant owner thought for a while and said, "This problem, maybe the nobles can solve it, if it is the major general's request, presumably the royal family will also take care of it." β
As he spoke, the restaurant owner seemed to suddenly remember something, and he first flattered, "The sea is really chaotic now, if it weren't for the protection of a navy like you, it is estimated that there would be no peace in our country, and the royal family will not refuse your request." Then he paused before saying, "If you are not afraid of messy, you can go to the corner of the kingdom." β
"Corner?"
"Well, it's a terrible place, it's a place for the exiled people." He replied. Please pay attention to the latest chapters in the future
