Volume 2 The Fight on the Sea Chapter 1 A Conversation Between Brothers
The weather in the New World was still so bad that it was hit three times by hail in less than half a day.
One moment it was a hot sun, the next it was stormy. The navy on the ship is a battle-hardened elite, and now I don't know how many times this situation has been experienced, so there is nothing to be surprised about.
Serge is an otaku who has lived in Elbaf except for one trip to Miranda.
I've only heard about this kind of ever-changing weather, but it's the first time I've experienced it myself.
Searle's popularity is not bad, and after getting along for a long time, he got acquainted with the navy on the warship.
Originally, the fleet consisted of a total of six warships, three of which remained in Miranda to help the King's army maintain law and order, and one of Herrenknecht's exclusive warships remained in Elbaf.
The current "fleet" is just two warships, one is used to hold the remnants of the Solitaire Pirates, and Selwart and the others are on the other warship.
Of course, the sailors were very curious about Sergey, but no one dared to ask questions because of the Sengoku Lieutenant General!
The sea is still so beautiful, and you will be accustomed to seeing more and nature! Serge stood alone on the fence and looked out into the distance.
"Little brother Serge, uh-huh, do you want to eat senbei?" Sengoku held a bag of senbei in his hand, walked up to Searle to eat and asked.
Serge glanced back at Sengoku, shook his head and replied, "No need, thank you for your kindness, Sengoku Lieutenant General!" ”
"If I'm not mistaken, you'll be thirty years old, little brother Searle! After all, you haven't joined the Navy yet, so you don't need to be so serious as a vice admiral, just call me by my name! Sengoku said casually.
"By name? Forget it! So what should I call it? Serge thought to himself.
"Yes, big brother of the Warring States! I'm just 30 years old. Searle had a flash of inspiration and came up with such a name.
Well, the age of Sengoku is estimated to be in his early thirties, plus he has helped Serge before, so it's not too much to call him a big brother!
Sengoku looked a little stunned when he heard Serge's title, and then laughed: "I didn't expect that I could already be someone else's big brother?" I like this title, so call me that from now on, little brother Searle! ”
It was originally a joke, but I didn't expect Searle to really call the Warring States like this for decades, which is a later story.
Sengoku handed the senbei to Ser again and said, "Taste it, the senbei of Chambord Island's specialty, it tastes amazing!" ”
"Is this stuff so delicious? Brother Warring States, you are always eating. Serge nodded, took the bag handed over by Sengoku and said.
"Mm-hmm, wow, it's really delicious!" Searle tilted his head and poured all the senbei into his mouth.
Sengoku hurriedly said: "Don't finish eating, leave me some!" ”
Unfortunately, it was a little too late, and Searle had already poured the whole bag of senbei into his mouth and chewed it.
With a bit of heartache, Sengoku carefully took out another bag from his arms, for fear of being snatched by Serre.
Serge laughed, and Sengoku glared at Ser fiercely.
The character of the Warring States generals in this period was much more casual than that of the later Warring States marshals, and it was a comic to describe it in modern terms.
Although people are a little funny, their hearts are very fine. He saw that Searle was in a low mood at this time, so he used the matter of sending Xianbei to enlighten Searle.
Sure enough, after some gags, Searle was in a much better mood.
When he was in a good mood, he naturally wanted to inquire about some information, and Searle said: "Brother Warring States, can you tell me about the situation inside the navy?" ”
The internal configuration of the navy, as a senior Haimi, Searle still knows a lot.
But that was forty years ago! Who knows who the current general marshal is?
"Oh, little brother Serge can't wait?" Sengoku took a bite of the senbei and quipped.
Serge stared at Sengoku's face and didn't speak.
"Okay, okay, you're going to join the Navy anyway, so I'd better tell you something in advance!"
Warring States waved his hand helplessly and said: "The supreme commander of the navy is the Marshal of Sri Lanka, and there are three of the highest combat forces to suppress the sea, namely the steel bone general, the sword sky general, and the soon-to-retire Stygian general. Next are lieutenant generals, major generals, brigadier generals and other generals. ”
Serge was interested in thinking, "Retirement? The reason for old age? ”
Sengoku nodded and sighed, "General Stygian is a respectable man!" It has been thirty years since he served as a general, and it can be said that he suppressed an era. Even if he is seriously ill, he still sticks to the fortress of justice! ”
A man who fights for his life for his beliefs is always worthy of respect!
"Listen to what my old man said, Brother Warring States, you are about to be promoted to general, are you taking over from the general of Stygian?" Searle sighed.
Warring States glanced at the epaulettes and said in a deep voice: "There is indeed such a thing, with the physical condition of the general of the Stygian Rock, he may retire in the next few years." ”
The look of the Warring States was a little high-spirited, what a seductive word the general, if the general is considered the top of the navy, then the general is the pinnacle of power. It is the goal of every navy, and only by becoming a general can we better realize the ambition in our chest.
While rejoicing for the Warring States, the road ahead became clearer. "General~ I'm decided!" Serge was secretly convinced.
"Are there any particularly interesting people in the Navy? It's like the Warring States Big Brother. Searle asked, blinking.
"In your eyes, I'm an interesting person, and it's really surprising. Funny people, well-off, there is indeed such a bastard! Sengoku seemed to think of something headache, and his tone became helpless.
There should be only one person who has a good relationship with Sengoku and is also called a bastard, and that is the future naval hero ~ Iron Fist Karp.
Although there was already a faint guess in his heart, Serge still asked, "Oh? The person who can make the big brother of the Warring States feel a headache, I have to know this in advance. ”
"His name is Monchi D-Karp, he's a messy bastard, and we're Navy soldiers in the same issue. Hawkers, although people are a bit of a bastard, their strength is indeed a monster! And my only contender for the position of general this time! Warring States sorted out the explosion head and introduced it with a headache.
Sure enough, it's him, but Karp will compete for the general? Are you sure you're not kidding?
Speaking of monsters, Serge can be said to be full of interest, in the original book, Karp is a world-famous powerhouse, but the number of times he has shot is really only a handful, and the impressive thing is that except for the iron fists, I really don't know much about the others!
Serge knowingly asked, "Is he also a capable person?" Can you tell me more about that? And Brother Warring States, what exactly is your ability? ”
"No, that guy doesn't like to see Devil Fruits very much, and his strength is focused on physical skills and domineering. In terms of strength, it should be the strongest existence in the navy! As for my abilities? Didn't you see it all that day? Sengoku said with a serious face.
Searle shrugged his shoulders helplessly.
Warring States clapped his hands suddenly and said: "I almost forgot that you are going to sea for the first time, and the devil fruit is divided into three lines, namely the natural department, the superhuman department, and the animal department." ”
Sengoku continued with a little smugness: "The natural system is the strongest of these three Devil Fruits on the surface. But in fact, when the ability is developed to a certain extent, there is not much difference between the three. And my ability is a phantom beast-type fruit that is even rarer than the natural system. ”
Serge didn't speak, he already knew these things, so in order not to arouse suspicion, he had to listen carefully to Sengoku's introduction as if he hadn't heard of it.
Sengoku is very satisfied with Serge's attitude, probably the seniors like to narrate some secret things for the juniors and gain the worship of the juniors!
"Phantom beasts are special animal species, and as far as I know, there are only a handful of phantom beasts that appear on the sea. I am the fruit of everyone, and the phantom beast is in the form of a big Buddha. The words "Come and praise me" were almost written on the proud face of the Warring States.
"Big Buddha, you really meet your title of big brother of the Warring States. Maybe I'll find a good fruit in the future! Serge feigned amazement.
Note: Senshi means Buddha statue in Japanese. Therefore, the Warring States of the Immortal Stone is equivalent to the Warring States of the Buddha, and the translation is different, in order to conform to the context, it will be called the Immortal Stone in the future.
No wonder after the Warring States stepped down, the whole person became funny, it turns out that this is his nature!
Sengoku said with bad intentions: "Oh, is Serge also interested in Devil Fruits?" I thought you physico-cultivators hated Devil Fruits! When I get back to Marinfando, I'll give you a copy of the Fruit Illustrated Book to see if there's anything you like. ”
Serge winked at Sengoku and said, "Then please ask Sengoku Big Brother!" ”
