Chapter 44: Reaching the Place Where It All Begins
"Haha, you call me Lu Li, I'm the one who wants to crack the mysteries of this world!" Lu Li felt that the eagle-eyed swordsman in front of him was still very good at talking.
Lu Li, with a strange name, Hawkeye muttered in his heart.
"Then I'm going to leave." Turning the cross-like knife back to his back, Mihawk bowed slightly, and was about to leave.
"Hey! Wait, you're in such a hurry to go! Wait until you heal your wounds! Lu Li was very surprised by the reaction of the swordsman in front of him, after all, the weakness caused by the mad rat's poison was still manifested in Hawkeye's pale face, as a swordsman who had an accurate grasp of his body, he should not be in such a hurry to leave without confirming his injuries.
"If I linger with the West Sea any longer, I'm afraid I won't be able to catch up with the execution of the One Piece King, so I can't wait. You have to go now. Hawkeye paused and said to Lu Li.
"What!" Lu Li exclaimed in surprise and asked in disbelief, "Has One Piece Roger been caught?" How long has it been! ”
Lu Li couldn't help but worry about Moria, even the golden ghost Roger, who had just won the title of One Piece, was so easily captured by the navy, and the risk of being a pirate was really a bit high.
"Indeed, in September Roger was to be publicly executed in the town of Rogue in the East China Sea, where he was born." Hawkeye continued calmly, as if the person who was anxious just now was not him.
"It's August now! From the West Sea to the East China Sea, a month..."
"It's enough, just in time to reach the East China Sea in September, and you can take a look at the last side of this One Piece." Without waiting for Lu Li to finish speaking, Hawkeye directly continued.
"Then come with me! I'd love to see this One Piece too! Lu Li also wanted to meet this man named Roger.
After all, this world is the world of One Piece. It's a bit too much not to watch One Piece in the world of One Piece.
Seeing that Hawkeye did not object, Lu Li rolled up his luggage and set off with Hawkeye.
"Let's go! That's right. Lu Li suddenly hesitated, then turned to look at the mad rat who had retreated behind the door since Hawkeye woke up, "Crazy rat, no, Reagan Jacob Felix." ”
"Yes, sir." The mad rat walked in front of Lu Li in fear, he knew that this was the moment that would decide his fate, and whether he lived or died depended on Lu Li's treatment of him at this time.
"You can have such a name, which proves that you are by no means an ordinary civilian. I don't know what made you a pirate, or how many evil things you've done in your time as a pirate. Speaking of this, Lu Li couldn't help but pause, and saw the mad rat's worried expression, and then continued, "I'm not a cruel and ruthless person, no matter what the reason was, you are indeed my savior, so I can let you go this time." ”
Although Lu Li had already received a promise to protect himself, how much credibility could Lu Li's promise to be a pirate with a reward of more than 100 million Baileys? Mad Rat didn't dare to take that promise as a life-saving reliance, and could only hope that Lu Li would keep his promise.
Now that he has received another accurate answer from Lu Li, Mad Rat knows that his little life has been completely saved. An irrepressible ecstasy welled up on his face.
"However, I don't want you to continue to be a pirate, so if I let you go, it will be equivalent to doing evil unintentionally." Seeing the ecstatic expression of the mad rat, Lu Li continued, "You go to Vasa!" Vasa Kingdom is running a school, and it should be more than enough to be a teacher at your level. Be a dignified person, live well, live a wonderful life, live a fun life, and stop being this kind of pirate that everyone shouts and beats. ”
"I... I go to be a teacher, can I? Stunned for a moment, the mad mouse asked unconfidently.
"Yes, how not! Go apply for a teacher! With this thing in hand, just say that it is Moria's friend, and there should be no problem. Lu Li took off the pendant around his neck and handed the token that Moria had left for himself to the hands of the mad rat, with Moria's prestige in Vasa, as long as the mad rat really went to Vasa to apply for a teacher, there would definitely be no other obstacles.
Ignoring the mad rat who was completely stunned in place, Lu Li strode away, chasing the tsundere swordsman who was slowly grinding and waiting for him not far away.
The mad rat's hands clenched the pendant tightly, and the pendant pierced his palm and dripped blood, "Thank you!" Thank you! You are the first person to look down on me, I will be a good doctor, and I will not fail to live up to your trust. Thank you so much! ”
.....
A bustling crowd gathers in this sea. All kinds of ships and all kinds of characters gather here, and this is the place where One Piece Roger is about to be executed - Rogue Town.
However, even in this diverse crowd, the two people in front of them had a strange feeling.
The eagle-eyed swordsman with a huge black knife like a cross on his back walked ahead, his terrifying gaze like an eagle and his piercing sword intent constantly swept through the surrounding crowd, forcing the crowd in front of him to give way to a wide avenue.
Behind the swordsman was a small giant more than three meters tall. Copper-cast and iron-cast muscles lay on his muscles and bones, and fine scars spread all over his body, facing the crowd of onlookers, the little giant looked around, full of provocative eyes, constantly provoking everyone's anger.
But when everyone continued to look behind them and saw the head dragged behind by the giant, the beating heart instantly cooled.
"Misty the Decapitator! He's a sea thief with a bounty of 34 million Bailey! A super thief who once attacked the navy and escaped! ”
"Laura the murderer! The third best pirate in the North Sea! He's even fought the sea rogue Doflamingo! Almost beat him! ”
"Have all such big names been killed? How can it be! Who are these three people? ”
Many of the pirates in Rogue Town were scared enough by these two heads, after all, even among the pirates, the decapitator and the murderer were famous.
"Humph! A bunch of garbage! Rubbish! The person who scolded angrily was the big man who walked in the center, and it was Lu Li, who had been driving for a month to come to Rogue Town.
The people around him were so insulted by Lu Li, but as if they didn't hear it, they let him leave with Hawkeye. It's not that they don't care about being insulted, but the cruel reality has long taught them what it means to respect the strong, and in the face of people who can kill sea thieves like decapitators and murderers, patience and insults are just the most basic quality.
"Phew! Gutsless rats! Seeing that the people around him not only did not resist, but retreated covertly, Lu Li, who deliberately failed to provoke, spit hatefully and couldn't help scolding.
Lu Li is not an arrogant and domineering person, even if he has extraordinary strength after coming to this world, he has always been a righteous person, so he has not been infected with the so-called strong mentality - treating the weak as a mustard.
It was these shrinking people in front of him who angered him so much. In the process of sailing down the upside-down mountain in the East China Sea, Lu Li watched as two groups of pirates, the Severed Head and the Murderer, brutally tortured and killed all the people on a merchant ship.
This merchant ship may have wanted to go to the Great Voyage through the Upside Down Mountain, but unfortunately they ran into the pirates who came to the East China Sea, and the merchant ship that had no ability to resist was naturally all killed. Fortunately in the midst of misfortune, Lu Li, who witnessed this tragedy all the way, used the same means to let the pirates see what it means to be an honest man's anger.
Arriving at Rogue Town, Lu Li discovers that encountering a decapitator and a murderer on the road is not an accident. As a man who has just reached the pinnacle of pirates, Roger was silently captured by the Navy and had to be publicly broadcast live from the world, which was a huge blow to the pirates. That's why pirates from all over the world and even the Great Voyage flocked to see the end of One Piece.
And the real pirates are naturally not as romantic as Luffy in the comics, but one is more tyrannical and cruel than the other, just in just a few days in Rogue Town, I don't know how many good residents have suffered, and it is precisely because of witnessing all this in front of him that Lu Li can't help but provoke these pirates and want to solve some of the villains.
"Arrogance!" Witnessing the departure of the three of them, the sand crocodile Klockdahl, who had a big back and sound hands, leaned lazily against the wall, and the smoke like a cloud enveloped him, "Ignorant man!"
As a wise pirate who believes in his mind, although Klockdahl does not kill, he definitely despises Lu Li's stupid behavior to show his strength.
"Ridiculous fanatic!" Allowing the walls behind him to be sanded, Klockdahl turned into dust and swirled before disappearing.
