"Luffy!"

Esmeng sat up, a little frightened on his face, and then heard the sound of snoring around him.

"What the hell?" Turning his head, Ace opened his mouth and looked at Luffy who was snoring, and finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

"What, you're awake?"

The sound sounded from the wall, and Ace turned his head to see a terrifying scene, the wall that had always had eyes and ears had grown out of its mouth, and then, as a flower grew, the organs were put together into a beautiful human face.

"Who are you, who are you?" Ace opened his mouth, this scene looked really sensible, and for a while, even a bold character like Ace felt a little creepy.

The head just laughed, then vanished into petals, followed by the sound of the hatch being pushed open.

A head full of red hair and three eyes first caught Ace's eyes, and then the woman who walked in was the woman who had just shown her head on the wall, and the last one who walked in was a beautiful girl with a maid's head and a big bow at the back.

"Are you awake already? It's fast! Minoan said with a smile.

"Where is this? What the hell are you trying to do when you catch me and Luffy? Ace frowned and said with some confusion.

Caught the two of them, did he want to use the two of them as hostages to deal with the Great Demon King of Karp?

Although Ace and Luffy shouted about the Great Demon King of Karp every day, it was actually the same as their bandit adoptive mother who said every day that she would kill them two little ghosts, but it was just a mouthful of words.

In any case, the two and Karp still have a family-like relationship, even if they will stand on opposite sides because of their ideals and ambitions, it doesn't mean that Ace and Luffy really want to harm Karp.

If this sea thief really wants to harm Karp, what should he and Ace do......

Inexplicably, although he was a few years ahead of schedule and early in his maturity period, Ace had already experienced the anxious and powerless mood he felt as a hostage before the war on top of the comics.

"Don't worry, it's not for Karp to catch you two!" With Mino's evil eye talent and domineering appearance, he could see Ace's thoughts almost at a glance.

However, Mino really didn't have any thoughts about the two little guys, he just wanted to change the fate of the two of them in order to gain a lot of cause and effect points.

Anyway, when the time comes, the world government and navy will kill again, and there will be at least three or more top-level combat powers, and the world backlash that Mino's current causal point has attracted is only a top-level combat power.

At this time, he didn't want to waste the two or three places that were vacant, and directly to the protagonist was naturally the fastest way to get cause and effect points.

No, he didn't do anything, just intercepted Luffy, and the causal point had risen before, if he could break Luffy into a navy king......, it was estimated that he would have to encounter the siege of the four emperors and three generals.

Of course, compared to the siege of the Four Emperors and the Three Generals, it may be more difficult to break the current Luffy into the King of the Navy, after all, the name of the entire manga is called One Piece.

Ace didn't know what Mino's thoughts, let alone that he was actually just seen as an add-on, but in his mind, a sea thief of this level would not be able to deceive him and Luffy, two children-the key is that the two of them have little ability to resist, even if they take forced action, they can't do it.

Because of this, Ace believed Mino's words a little: "Then what are you looking for the two of us?" Don't tell me you think the two of us have amazing potential and want to pull me and Luffy into the team. ”

"Why not? You two imps have a lot of potential. Mino opened his mouth to say a word, but in fact, Ace didn't think badly, potential belongs to potential, and there are more people on the sea whose potential has not been realized.

If it weren't for the causal point, Mino really wouldn't have run like this.

"My head hurts! Hey, where is this? At this moment, Luffy next to him also came to his senses and raised his head.

"It feels like I've been punched by Grandpa's fist, Ace? And the three-eyed uncle? What's going on? ”

"Kid, you're in luck!" Mino reached out and rubbed Luffy's head, directly pulling his head out of shape, which felt really fun.

"Don't you want to go to sea and become a pirate? Why don't you become an intern on my pirate ship first? ”

"Huh? Is it really possible to go to sea? But I'm going to be the king of the pirates in the future! I don't want to join other pirates. Luffy glared and spoke.

"You think too much," Mino pursed his lips, "Now sea pirates generally start from being a junior brother to others!" ”

"Whitebeard, Golden Lion, Kaido, Charlotte Lingling, Red-Haired Shanks, and I, all of them have been junior brothers to others, and when they became stronger, they broke away from the original pirate group and established their own pirate group!"

"Huh? Did Shanks still be someone else's little brother? It's so inferior, hahahahaha! Luffy hadn't heard of the name of Whitebeard or Golden Lion, but when he heard that his acquaintance Shanks had actually been someone else's little brother, he immediately covered his stomach and laughed.

Ace looked at Luffy with a loveless expression, please, the person in front of him said that he himself was someone else's little brother, isn't your laughing at Shanks equivalent to laughing at him?

But Mino doesn't think so, after all, it's a famous rubber head, and it's strange that you expect Luffy to be able to recognize the advance and retreat.

"Yes, Red-haired Shanks, who was a former intern on One Piece Roger's ship," Mino said unhurriedly.

"One Piece?!" Luffy and Ace's eyes widened with shocked expressions.

Then Luffy suddenly picked his nose, and his expression calmed down: "But I still feel so inferior!" ”

"Okay, would you like to be an intern on my ship for a while? If you don't want to, I'll send you back now! ”

Mino rolled his eyes and asked.

"Of course I do!!" Luffy didn't even hesitate at all, and directly agreed.

"Hehe, it looks like you're so inferior!" Mino couldn't help but tease.

Luffy also said very straightforwardly: "Although it is inferior to be someone else's little brother!" But it's better than being stuck on an island and not even being able to go to sea! ”

"When I become an adult and become stronger, I will set up my own pirate group when the time comes, and it will not be too late to go to sea to find the great secret treasure."

Mino laughed a little, who said Luffy was a stupid boy? At most, he doesn't like to use his brain, and if it's something he cares about, isn't it still quite clear?

……

"Where are we going now?"

Ace, who had just finished exercising on the deck and had eaten a table of blood polished rice dinner, touched his bulging belly and asked.

This is the third day after Ace and Luffy got on the ship, and in the past two days, the two of them have basically eaten and trained, slept after training, finished sleeping, and got up to eat.

Of course, Ace had to admit that the effect of his training on the Minoan was far greater than his own blind practice, at least his progress was dozens of times faster, and these three days of hard training were worth a year and a half of training in Windmill Town.

But in his impression, the life of a pirate is not like this, this feels like a pirate, it is clearly a sea tour group!

Well, compared to Ace, who still has a little common sense about pirate life, in Luffy's eyes, pirates should be like this, and it's similar to a tour group or something.

"Climb over the windless zone, cross the great route, go to the windless zone near the South China Sea, and go to the Nine Snake Island there, where we will buy some goods, and by the way, let you study there."

It's okay to take the two protagonist brothers with them on weekdays, but now that the big war is about to start, Mino has even dismissed his own unqualified subordinates, so naturally he won't take the two brothers to go on an adventure. Anyway, he took these two people with him, just for the cause and effect point, and it didn't matter if he sent them there later.

Mino thought for a while, since his subordinates all went to the Sky Island, let Luffy and Ace go to Daughter Island to stay, and let them learn domineering by the way,

Karp's teaching methods are so unreliable, basically beating them up and free-range, and occasionally throwing the brothers under cliffs, wolves, etc., Mino's serious suspicion that Karp is not training, but playing.

Although Karp himself said that it was a kind of exercise of courage and vitality, but just look at the subsequent Kirby to know what the real training should look like. Luffy and Ace are under Karp's hands, and they are no different from Noluko.

Even if you want to exercise the vitality of Luffy and Ace, such as the Navy Six Life Return and the like, you must always teach it, this is a basic skill for the Navy, especially Life Return, which will never go out of style at any time.

As a result, when the two brothers went to sea in the end, they learned to be lonely, and basically developed all the tricks by themselves, and they had nothing to do with the old man Karp.

I don't know if this old man saw that his grandsons had backbones in their heads, and they were born to be pirates, so he didn't teach them skills at all.

Anyway, for Mino, Luffy and Ace are naturally as strong as possible, in case when they reach adulthood, they can punch the Four Emperors and kick the three generals, then Mino can at least exchange for three or five treasures to come back.

Of course, this possibility is not very large, the two brothers just have unlimited potential, and they haven't opened any plug-ins, and Mino himself can't do it now, let alone them.

"The Great Route?" Lying on the deck, Luffy suddenly got up, and a golden light appeared in his eyes: "The legendary great voyage?" ”

"It's just a passing way, but you can also go and see the scenery of the Great Voyage, at least so that you can be mentally prepared."

"Also, in the East China Sea, I still have some things to do, and I will have to wait at least two more days before we can reach the windless zone."

"What's the matter?" Ace's face was a little puzzled, with the strength of the Minoan Pirates, in this small East China Sea, it can almost be said to be rampant, but in the same way, there seems to be nothing in the East China Sea that is worthy of the attention of the Minoan Pirates, right?

"Well, just a little girl." Mino waved his hand and spoke.

In the Straw Hat Pirates, everyone has their own duties, and there are basically no so-called useless people.

Even the god Usopp, who seems to be known for his luck, and Chopper, a pet who sells cuteness as a business, has a lot of combat effectiveness and his own professional knowledge.

Needless to say, Chopper's medical skills are top-notch in the entire sea, and Usopp seems to be a bastard with luck, but in fact he is not only proficient in sniping, but also super hands-on, and he is the kind of all-round substitute.

If Robin was a theoretical expert, Usopp was a hands-on expert, and before Frankie joined, Usopp did all the odd work of repairing ships.

However, although the level of these people is the first-class level on the sea, it is only a first-class level, whether it is Sanji's cooking skills, Frankie's scientific and technological level and ship repair skills, or Chopper's medical skills, they are definitely not unique.

Oh, Nicole Robin's archaeological skills may be unique, but that's because the World Government has killed all the other archaeologists......

The only person who can be called the top of the sea in the professional field, or even be able to compete for the first place in the sea, is Nami.

He was a natural expert in navigation, and at a young age, his talent was so high that he was shocked by Aaron.

Ah Long is not the kind of little pirate born in the East China Sea, he has also seen the big world, he was originally a fishman who is close to the sea, born in the Sun Pirates, and has been mixed in the great voyage, Ah Long has seen a wide range of worlds.

But even so, after seeing Nami's chart, Aaron was still a treasure - you know, they are fish people, they can dive directly to the bottom of the sea, and in terms of judging the currents, they are not as good as Nami, who was still young at the time, you can see their talent.

Relying on the clairvoyant plug-in, Mino may be able to judge the weather with Nami, but in terms of real sailing skills, it is not an exaggeration to say that the two are very different.

Of course Mino will not let go of such a good seedling, not to mention what the fishman Aaron did, Mino didn't look down on at all.

It's easy to kidnap the current Nami on the boat, just slaughter the group of fishmen, anyway, this pirate thief is not a good girl, and he actually yearns for the sea.

Although Nami seems to be timid and greedy for money, and the three of Chopper Uthop form the famous cowardly crying emoji trio on the Straw Hats, she is not a peaceful person in her bones. Just by looking at the way she used to collect money, you can see her character.

"Little girl?" Ace was a little confused, but he thought about it for a while, and suddenly realized that the people on the Mino's boat didn't seem to be very old.

Mino and Robin have just turned 20, Smoker and Tina are not very old, and Baby 5 is even younger.

Now, with his two brothers and another unknown little girl, it's a bit too young, right?
