Chapter 398: Miscellaneous
Seeing the small ship, a smile appeared on Edward's bearded and unkempt face. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
At this time, Edward had already suffered in this strange sea, and in just a few days, Edward was able to see the power of nature.
In the blink of an eye, the otherwise calm sea can be rough, the clouds in the sky can roll at extremely fast speeds, high-intensity lightning can fall inadvertently, and strong winds can blow for no reason, sometimes mixed with fist-sized hailstones.
This kind of weather that changed wildly several times a day almost exhausted Edward's energy, so that he had to pay attention to the weather changes on the sea all the time, and if it were not for the strong body and the protection of the Holy Light, it would be impossible for humans to rely on a single dolphin to move on the sea.
The danger at sea is not only due to the drastic changes in the weather, but also from the large sea creatures that live in the sea. Edward and Rhodes were once swallowed by an eel as large as the command room of Willen Fortress, and if Edward hadn't attacked the eel's mouth wall and made the other party spit it out, it might have become food for the eel by now.
Of course, the harsh environment forced Edward to use the power of the Light at all times, and during this journey, his Light's control increased a little, at least to the extent that he was able to extend the range of the Light barrier to half a meter away from his body. At the same time, he also found that in this plane, the strength of the body also increased rapidly. The super adaptability of the demon hunter Li family even caused thin fins to grow between his toes!
However, by the time Edward encountered the ship, he had been starving for days, his fur coat was tattered, only a crotch cloth remained, and the tough wooden sword had already pierced the wall of the great eel's mouth.
The dilapidated ship with the skull flag with a straw hat did not notice Edward's presence at first, and headed for land in the distance. Soon, however, one of the ship's long-nosed lookouts spotted Edward and threw a rope at him.
"Thank you, Rod. Edward grabbed the rope and patted the dolphin and said, "Now let's go, go where you need to go." ”
Rhodes the dolphin reluctantly chirped a few times and burrowed into the water.
Edward, who had almost exhausted his strength, fell directly to the deck when he was dragged onto the ship. Before he could get on the boat, Edward heard a burst of laughter, and the hostile demon hunter quickly relaxed, but not so hungry that he fainted.
"What is this?Usob, you caught a sea savage?" a lanky boy in a straw hat poked Edward's face with a stick, "I don't want to know if his meat tastes good?"
"Shut up! Luffy, this is clearly a drifter. This was the only short-haired green man on the ship who was wary of Edward, "Judging from the style of this crotch cloth, it is obviously hand-sewn, and the material is the skin of a saber-toothed tiger, you better be careful, it is not easy to kill a saber-toothed tiger with your bare hands." ”
Hearing this, the long nose that pulled Edward up immediately hid behind the straw hat.
"Get out of the way, let Dr. Chopper come and see the patient. A dwarf creature rushed over and examined Edward, "Hmm...... It's just overtired, a little dehydrated, and a little hungry, Sanji!"
"Understood, wait a minute. A man with blond hair and curly eyebrows quickly stepped out of the cabin, carrying a basin full of enticing aromatic food and a large bowl of water, "Mashed potatoes are the best choice for the hungry, try my craft." ”
"Oh yes! " The boy in the straw hat cheered, but was immediately hammered on the head with his eyebrows curled, "This is for this one, haven't you just eaten it!"
"Thank you. Edward looked at the fragrant mashed potatoes, swallowed, and ate as quickly as the straw hat watched.
During this time, Edward was still observing the members of the ship.
Whether it was the grinning straw hat, the timid long-nosed, the cute strange ship doctor, or the green-haired swordsman and the curly-eyed cook who were always on the alert, or the orange-haired woman standing in the distance, the black-haired woman holding a book in her hand, Edward did not feel any hostility in them, only curiosity.
Edward originally thought it was a pirate ship, but his evil eyes didn't tell that these people were pirates, but more like an adventuring team.
This discovery made Edward's heart completely relaxed, and after eating and drinking, he stood up and saluted the men, "Thank you for your help, I am Edward Lee, a traveler lost on the sea. ”
Edward's standard court etiquette was out of step with his current appearance, giving him a look of surprise.
"Ah, Edward, has the same name as Ace's captain!" Straw Hat exclaimed in surprise, but quickly put the matter behind him, shook Edward's hand vigorously, and said, "You're welcome, you're welcome, by the way, are you a boatman?" Welcome to the Straw Hat Pirates! I'm Captain Monqi D. Luffy!"
"You bastard!How could you let a stranger join so easily!" the orange-haired woman punched the Straw Hat angrily, "and how can you save a random person and it's a boatman!"
After beating the captain, the orange-haired woman looked at Edward again and said, "We are pirates, but don't be afraid, you can get off the ship at the next stop, we won't do anything to you." ”
Edward was about to thank him, but the orange-haired woman continued, "But you don't have anything of value on you, and you'll have to do something for us as the cost of the boat!"
"That's as it should be. Edward agreed with a wry smile.
"Very well, now you can go into the cabin, take a shower, change your clothes, your body really stinks!" said the orange-haired woman, pinching her nose in disgust and waving her hand.
"Oh! Oh, we have new companions!" Luffy, the boy who didn't look like a captain, immediately put his arm around Edward's shoulders and cheered him into the cabin, "I'll show you your rope bed......"
............
After cleaning up, Edward, who had regained his handsome appearance, walked out wearing the clothes and pants of the swordsman Sauron, which immediately caused a wave of exclamations.
"Well, he's quite handsome, and he doesn't look like a wanderer, maybe it's some nobleman. The brunette Robin said.
"yes, it's so pretty, by the way, what is pretty?" Luffy said with a confused expression.
"That's handsome!Luffy!" Long-nosed Usobu pointed to the right path, and then whispered to Luffy a little obscenely, "Looks a little more handsome than Sanji, and Edward has not seen a woman and is a problem, we can use him to fight Sanji ...... in the future"
"I hear that!" said Chef Yamaji with a cold face, putting his arm around Edward's shoulder, "Boy, you have to be smart in the future, don't get in the way of me finding beautiful women." ”
"Of course, Mr. Chef. Edward smiled softly, "I'm just a handyman now. ”
