"There is friendship...... What a ghost! ”

Simon retorted weakly and held out his hand to Loya. Loya understood and handed him the phone bug.

"Moximoxi, I'm Simon. Matilde, what do you mean when you say that Kureha wants to take me as an apprentice? ”

"Oh, Simon too!"

In Westtown, Matilda looked at Kureha, who was appeasing Chopper, and shrugged: "I don't know the specific situation. She just asked me if you were a sniper, and then she offered to take you as an apprentice. ”

"But, Simon!" Matilda's eyes suddenly lit up, and he lowered his voice: "I'll tell you, Kureha is really good." Aren't you physically unable to use a firearm with too much recoil? Listen to me, learn her throwing knife skills, and you'll be able to walk sideways on the sea! ”

"Even if you say that, I can't make a decision right now!" Simon frowned, rubbing his temples with his other hand: "Otherwise, you're going to come back now, right, I'll talk to her personally when I come back!" ”

"Uh...... Okay, that's fine, then I'll hang up first! After Matilda finished speaking, he hung up the phone, looked at Kureha, who signaled him not to continue, and asked, "What's wrong, Dr. Kureha?" Your strength as Simon's teacher is totally sufficient! ”

"No, no, no, I don't want to be a teacher. Moreover, all of you guys in the elite battalion have teachers, don't you? Kureha took a sip of wine and said with a smile: "I just see that he has a good talent, and I just want to give him the flying knife technique, not to be his teacher." ”

Mingde remembered Kuzan, who had always been called a teacher by Luo Ya but would never admit it, and nodded as if he didn't understand: "Okay, I understand." ”

Then skipping this topic, which he didn't actually understand at all, he stood up and greeted the soldiers: "All ready, return!" ”

......

On the other side, hanging up the phone, Simon was still rubbing his temples: "Why do you want to take me as an apprentice?" Kureha: What kind of calculation is this? ”

If you really want to say that she fell in love with herself because of her talent, Simon is a hundred unbelievers.

And, if she's worried about losing her legacy because she's too old, doesn't she have a reindeer doctor by her side? In terms of distance, it should be taught to him rather than himself, right?

In the face of Simon's self-talk, Luo Ya smiled, picked up the wine glass and took a sip: "So, being smart is being mistaken by being smart!" ”

Seeing Simon turn his head in confusion, Loya continued: "Have you forgotten that you are still in the navy? ”

"Navy?!" Simon repeated the word in confusion, and his eyes suddenly flashed with a gleam: "I understand!" She's looking for a backer! ”

It is true that Simon, who has a pointing fruit and a very good brain, is indeed the best choice to learn the technique of throwing knives. To say that Kureha cherishes his talents, it is indeed in the past.

But!

What is the situation in the Magnetic Drum Country now, she will not have a bit of B in her heart...... Can't you see it?

It's not so much that she needs to be king to maintain the stability of the Drum Country, but rather that the navy, especially Loya, needs her to be king.

Both sides are mutually beneficial, and each takes what it needs.

Among them, the importance of the attitude of the navy, especially Loya, is self-evident.

Ginger is always old and spicy!

Even if he knew the relationship between Luo Ya and the owner of Cannibal Island, he could use this to coerce Luo Ya, Kureha was still not at ease. At this moment, he proposed to teach Simon his mastery, to put it bluntly, that is, to win over the relationship.

This is also the reason why she retorted to Matilda and said that she did not want to be Simon's teacher. Because it was just an exchange of interests, not only was it not worthy of her name, but it was also not worth it for her to provoke the recent fierce black wrist Zefa.

With Loya's reminder, Simon suddenly figured out the joints and had a plan in his heart.

"Looks like I have to be this apprentice?"

"Yes and no." Luo Ya didn't deny Simon's words, but he immediately looked at Simon seriously and said seriously: "But to be honest, your strength does still have a lot of room for improvement, this is a good opportunity." Otherwise......"

Luo Ya suddenly laughed and said, "When Tony comes back, you will be very shameless." ”

"Forehead ......"

Thinking of Tony, who was announced as "missing" and was actually concentrating on cultivation outside, Simon's face flashed with a hint of nostalgia, and he grinned: "I understand Luoya, then for the next time, I'm afraid I will have to stay in the Magnetic Drum Country to study with peace of mind." ”

"Exactly!" Loya clapped her hands to confirm the matter, and then said, "Okay, let's talk about this first, I'll get some sleep first, and then let me know when they come back." ”

"Understood!"

Closing the door gently, Simon looked down at his calloused hands and said to himself, "It's still not strong enough!" ”

But then he raised his head and stared firmly at the mountain clouds outside the window: "Tony, when you come back, I will definitely surprise you!" ”

......

At night, the Drum King's Palace.

When I went, it only took more than an hour because I was light. When I came back, because of the wounded, I didn't come back until the evening.

Once again, the soldiers returned to the warmth of the palace, exhausted and weary by the pain and wounds, and many fell asleep as soon as they stepped through the gates.

Because they know that when they come here, there is that great man, and no one can threaten them.

does not accept the retention and repair of the towns along the way, Loya has his own considerations in it. When it is already safe to know, it is easy for people to relax and lose their vigilance.

On the average person, this is not a problem. But as a soldier, this is very important, because on the battlefield, no one can guarantee your safety.

So Loya ordered the soldiers to come back en masse, climb the mountain in this tired state, and return to the palace. As long as they can complete this trial, their will can be exaggeratedly improved. This is an indispensable step to becoming the elite of the Navy.

After arranging the rest of the soldiers and the treatment of the wounded, Mingde did not rest, and rushed to the conference hall in a hurry to report the situation to Luo Ya. And Simon, naturally, found Dr. Kureha, who said during the day that he would take him as an apprentice.

"Yo Chopper! I heard you did well today! A lot of soldiers asked me to help thank you on their behalf! ”

As soon as he entered the door, Simon greeted Chopper familiarly.

"Yaga! Even if you praise me like that, I won't be happy! You bastard! ”

This compliment made Chopper, a scheming little guy, very happy, and excitedly twisted his ass dance on the spot. It was as if the day's fatigue was gone, and the whole deer was in good spirits.

Kureha saw Simon walk in and put down the medical kit he was carrying: "Simon! Did you agree to what I told you during the day? ”

"I ......"

As soon as Simon spoke, Chopper on the side suddenly hugged his thigh and looked at him expectantly: "Simon Simon, are you also going to come to learn medicine from Dr. Dorier?" Am I going to be a senior in the future? ”

"Well...... Simon smiled slightly, crouched down and looked into Chopper's eyes: "No, Chopper, I have something else to learn." ”
