Chapter 9: Defeat Ace and leave Windmill Village
He rushed over again, but instead of continuing to fight Ming, he used his physical flexibility to take advantage of Ming's agility and weave around Ming, waiting for an opportunity to defeat Ming.
Looking at Ace who was constantly moving around him, Ming's eyebrows furrowed, it seemed that it was impossible for him to win by relying only on the claws.
Since this is the case, then he will create a 'chance' for Ace to see if Ace can grasp it.
After another moment. Ming seemed to be stunned by Ace's behavior, and he suddenly appeared sluggish in following his gaze.
Ace, who was observing carefully, saw this scene, and he understood that this was an excellent opportunity to make a move, and without hesitation, he jumped up and swung the iron pipe to smash the back of Ming's head.
At this time, Ming didn't seem to have time to turn around, he just turned his head around.
Seeing this situation, Ace was even more confident in his shot, as if he had seen the scene where he knocked down Ming with a stick.
But at this time, Ming opened his mouth, and Ace, who saw this scene, was full of puzzlement, could Ming be able to spew out something?
This thought flashed through him, and he saw several small flames erupt from Ming's mouth and fly towards him who attacked him.
Faced with the sudden flames, Ace could only wave the iron pipe in his hand and do his best to prevent the flames from burning towards him.
Seeing that Ace's attention was attracted by those small flames, the corners of Ming's mouth curled slightly, and he immediately turned around, rushed to the bottom of Ace, and grabbed Ace's feet with his right claws.
Then he burst out with the power of his whole body, knocking Ace out of the air.
Before he had time to congratulate on the accuracy of those small flames, Ace's face made intimate contact with the ground, and his head instantly went into a state of vertigo.
Seeing that Ace had temporarily lost his combat effectiveness, Ming let go of Ace's foot, and he didn't continue to attack, because in the face of Ace in this state, he could use any move at will to kill Ace, so he had already won Ace.
At this time, the voice of mission completion also sounded in his head.
"Wow! Congratulations to the host for defeating the young Ace and Luffy, and gaining 100 experience points and 1 million system gold. ”
After confirming the completion of the task, he silently said in his heart: "Take back the elf power little fire dragon." ”
The little fire dragon returned to its original red energy, and then burrowed into Ming's body, and Ming returned to its original state.
Ace finally exited his vertigo state at this time, and he turned his head knowing that he had been defeated, and then looked at Ming.
Although he was really a little unwilling to lose to Ming, he was defeated if he was defeated, and he Ace was not a person who couldn't afford to lose, so he grinned very calmly: "Ming, you are very good, you have obtained such a powerful power." ”
Hearing Ace say this, he knew that Ace's implication was that he relied on the power of the little fire dragon, but for him, the power of the little fire dragon was part of his own strength, and there was naturally no problem for him to rely on the power of the little fire dragon.
He chuckled and said, "Ace, if you're not convinced, then I'll have a fight with you the next time I return from the Navy Headquarters." ”
Ming's words made Ace's eyes light up, and Ace nodded and said, "Okay, next time I must defeat you!" ”
"I'm going to join you in the fight too!" Luffy rushed over and said.
"No problem, as long as Luffy isn't afraid of my flames and claws." Ming said with a smile.
Ming's words made Luffy's whole person lose his spirit suddenly, he ate rubber fruits, so he was not afraid of physical attacks, but he was afraid of sharp weapons and flames, and Ming's two attack methods belonged to these two aspects, which also showed that there was no hope for him to join the battle.
Seeing Luffy's appearance, Ming found that his words hit Luffy a little hard, in order not to affect Luffy's mentality, he could only hurriedly continue: "Luffy, don't be discouraged, as long as you develop the rubber fruit well, and defeat the opponent before others have time to hurt you with weapons, do you still need to be afraid of what I said?" ”
Hearing Ming's words, Luffy's eyes lit up, and he said to Ming: "Ming, that is, I can still challenge you in the future?" ”
"That's right." Ming smiled bitterly and nodded, he didn't expect that he would suddenly become the target of Ace and Luffy's pursuit.
Karp watched this scene happily, he wished that such a situation would occur, otherwise Ace and Luffy would always feel that they were invincible among their peers, and they would eventually develop the vice of arrogance.
Seeing that Ace and Luffy were safe and sound, Karp felt a lot more settled, and since he couldn't persuade the two boys to change their minds, then he should also leave.
Karp said to Ming, "Let's go, Ming boy." ”
"Yes, Mr. Karp." Ming immediately replied, and after saying that, he waved goodbye to Ace and Luffy.
Ace didn't respond to Ming, but turned his face away and didn't look at Ming and Karp, while Luffy waved goodbye to Ming and Karp.
As Cap and Ming's figures disappeared, Ace finally turned his head to look in the direction they were leaving, and muttered in his mouth, "Ming, you wait, I will definitely defeat you next time." ”
Ming and Karp were walking back to Windmill Village when the sound of the system suddenly sounded in his head.
"Congratulations to the host for triggering the new mission: Ace's re-challenge (the time is for the next meeting, the content is not available yet)."
Hearing such a strange mission description, Ming had no choice about it, since this was the case, then he could only wait for the next time he saw Ace, and then see what this triggered task was.
Ming took the opportunity of the system to trigger the task and opened the system's spirit illustrated book, he wanted to see what kind of changes in proficiency would occur after trying the little fire dragon this time.
When he saw the information of the little fire dragon, his eyes lit up slightly.
Elf: Little Fire Dragon (Beginner)
Strength: 10
Defense: 8
Dexterity: 8
Proficiency: 3\/10
Skills: Claws, Sparks
(Elves with high growth potential)
Seeing that the proficiency suddenly increased by two points, I knew that this was related to my flexible use of the little fire dragon's moves.
It seems that when you use the power of the elves in the future, you should think more about how to use it flexibly, so that you can not only improve your mastery of the power of the elves, but also quickly improve the data of proficiency.
While Ming was immersed in the system in his mind, Karp found that Ming began to wander the world again, and he frowned and shouted, "Ming boy! ”
Karp's loud voice pulled Ming out of the system, and Ming, whose ears were rumbling, looked at Karp and asked puzzledly, "Mr. Karp, is there something wrong?" ”
"What the hell are you doing?" Karp asked rhetorically.
Hearing Karp's rhetorical question, Ming knew that he would look like he was wandering out of the world when he checked the system, so in order not to make Karp wonder about his behavior, he explained to Karp: "Mr. Karp, I am recalling the battle just now, and I want to summarize some combat experience. ”
Ming's words made Karp's face change slightly better, and he nodded and said: "It's good to have such thoughts, but if you want to summarize the combat experience, you can wait until you are resting to summarize, otherwise summarizing in the process of advancing like you will lead to a lack of concentration, and sometimes you won't have time to react when you encounter danger." ”
Knowing that Karp was out of concern for himself, Ming nodded and thanked Karp, "Thank you Mr. Karp for your teachings." ”
Seeing that Ming You was listening carefully to his words, a smile appeared on Karp's face, and he continued to Ming, "Wait a minute, you will say goodbye to Miss Magino, and then we will return to my navy ship immediately." ”
Ming didn't expect Karp to be ready to leave so quickly, so that he couldn't ease his senses, and he asked Karp, "Mr. Karp, won't you stay any longer?" ”
"No, I came here to see those two boys, since everything is normal with them, but their thoughts can't be turned around, there is no need for me to stay here, besides, you kid must also arrive at the headquarters as soon as possible for training, so that you can become a qualified sailor as soon as possible." Karp replied with a smile.
"I see." Ming said softly. I don't know why, but he was a little reluctant to the people of Windmill Village at this time, especially Miss Magino and the village chief, who took great care of him.
Karp also heard the emotion in Ming's tone, he patted Ming's shoulder and said, "Ming boy, let's go to the Navy Headquarters, and it's not like we won't go back, and when you have something to achieve in the Navy in a few days, I'll take you back." ”
"Really, Mr. Karp?" Ming's eyes lit up, and he asked Karp.
"Of course it's true, but I don't expect a lot from you, so I won't be too low on your achievements." Karp reminded.
"I'll try!" Ming puffed out his chest and replied forcefully.
And so, as soon as they returned to the windmill village, Ming said goodbye to Miss Magino and the village chief, and took the salute that Miss Magino had packed for him, and Ming and Karp returned to the dog-headed navy ship.
Standing on the shore, Miss Magino looked at the navy ships that were drifting away, and she asked the village chief, "Village chief, what do you mean about going to the navy?" ”
The village chief smiled and said, "Don't worry, Magino. Ming, this kid will definitely get ahead in the navy, and that kid, like Luffy, has unlimited potential. ”
"That's fine." Magino looked at the Navy ship and said softly.
