"Speaking of which, are there too many pirates on this island? What are you doing?"
Bellemare asked.
Pirates can be seen everywhere on this island. When they saw the navy, the navy in uniform just passed by calmly, which made Bellemeier very puzzled and uncomfortable.
It was as if they were not marines, but ordinary passers-by, civilians.
It goes against common sense for a thief not to run away when he sees an army.
"I'm very sorry. Our base... doesn't have enough strength to clean up the pirates. We can only monitor the pirates' movements here and just make records and reports." the soldier replied.
"And this island is also a prosperous and powerful island that relies on the economy brought by pirates..."
"Did you just ignore the pirates for this reason?" Bellemere said.
"What about my grandpa? He should come back often." Luffy asked.
"Lieutenant General Garp's route is not here. He occasionally passes through the windless zone, and occasionally directly crosses the Red Continent. He takes the shortest way home. This is too far for him. "said the soldier.
"Oh, so that's it."
"In short, the pirates will not carry out destruction on this island. They need this island to serve as a transit supply station, so a balance is reached..."
"I heard that there is only one way to enter the Grand Channel, and that is through the Upside Down Mountain?" Nami asked.
"For others, it's like this. Pirates, civilians, and caravans can only go to other areas through the Upside Down Mountain. For people like us in the Navy and the World Government, we can go directly through the Red Earth Continent." The soldier explained .
As naval soldiers in Rogue Town, they know intelligence about many waterways.
"The Red Earth Continent is an area that ordinary people are not allowed to go to. It is illegal for ordinary people to go up there. Even pirates will find it troublesome and tricky to cross the Red Earth Continent, so everyone defaults to going to the Upside Down Mountain."
"Didn't some of the world's nobles come to the East China Sea a few years ago? Then we're going to the Red Earth Continent. We can't let those nobles experience the dangerous excitement of surfing on the Upside Down Mountain."
While they were talking, the naval base arrived. The top commander here was the colonel, not Smoker, whom Luffy knew. If he were there, there wouldn't be too many pirates gathering here.
The colonel rushed over and gave Luffy a glass of water.
"Your Highness, there are many things that need to be sorted out, so I am unable to go to the dock to greet you. I am very sorry!" the colonel said to Lu Fei with a military salute.
Another document with a navy seal was taken out.
"The documents for traveling to the Red Earth Continent are placed here. Please follow the road signs. Our navy cannot stay on the Red Earth Continent or go to other areas. It can only be used as a passage."
"Oh, I want to stay on this island for a while and practice my sword skills. Please talk to my navigator about the relevant knowledge of the waterway."
Luffy gave the file to Nami and smiled at her, "It's just your trouble."
"Put it on me, Captain!" Nami clenched her fists and said with a sweet smile.
"Can this girl...be able to do it?" The colonel glanced at Nami.
"My daughter's navigation skills are very strong. Her self-study skills are better than those of ordinary navigators at naval bases," Bellemeier said.
"Is that so? You're a genius...Bellemeier? Are you Bellemere?" The colonel noticed Bellemere, suddenly froze, and asked uncertainly.
"You are..." Bellemere never thought that she could meet an acquaintance within the navy, but this is the naval base in Rogge Town, so she shouldn't be acquainted with her. It's too far away.
"I once survived the battle in the Kingdom of Ouikot. At that time, I was still an ordinary soldier in the base. You were a general. Later, I was promoted here..."
Bellmere's eyes darkened. In the battle between the navy and the pirates in the Kingdom of Oiket, her men almost died in the battle, and she was also seriously injured. Finally, she met Nokigao who was holding Nami. In that battle, she When I saw hell, the innocent laughter of young Nami echoed on the tragic battlefield, making her extremely reluctant to survive.
"I still remember, when the Golden Lion escaped from prison, you said that if the Golden Lion dared to come to the East China Sea, you would beat him away..." The colonel recalled the past.
"..."
Bellmere smiled awkwardly but politely, "I was ignorant at the time, so don't say such things again..."
"So Bellemere was so good before?" Nozhigao exclaimed.
"It turns out we are all acquaintances. Let's talk slowly. Nokigao and Uta, do you want to go shopping here?" Luffy asked.
"I will stay with Nami." Noqigao said.
"Then let's take a stroll here first, and then join Nami after Nami finishes learning about navigation." Uta said.
The two left the naval base and walked aimlessly on the busy streets.
"This place is more prosperous than Glass Bead Island!" Uta sighed.
"After all, it is the only transit point for most people, and the location is special." Luffy said.
"Luffy take pictures for me."
Uta put the camera phone bug in Luffy's hand, then jogged and stood at an intersection, posing.
With a click, the camera freezes the girl's youth.
Girls really like to take pictures. Uta posed in various poses and walked through the streets, with the smile never disappearing from her face.
But the camera in my hand was also extremely powerful and recorded everything.
This weird biodynamic camera makes it difficult for Luffy to evaluate.
"Luffy, look, it's a school!" Uta said, pointing to the elementary school in Rogge Town.
This educational facility is also a symbol of economic prosperity.
Uta ordered a five-layer ice cream from the ice cream shop next to the school, which was piled high.
"Didn't I? Uta is too much."
"Hehehe, I'm not buying it for Luffy. I wanted to try it before and buy a five-layer ice cream, but I was worried that I wouldn't be able to finish it, so I had to buy a normal one." Uta said with a smile.
She licked the ice cream with enjoyment and jumped forward, her twin ponytails dancing in the air.
Unknowingly, when we arrived at the weapons selling area, there were more pirates around, all of them warriors looking for power.
A bit of a strange feeling.
Luffy looked at the weapons shop with swords crossed among the crowd. The pirates were looking at various swords and guns inside.
"The little girl is so cute, aren't you here?"
A pair of hands pressed on Uta's shoulders. The two-meter-tall pirate lowered his head and showed a smile with a few missing teeth.
"Let me go, your clothes are going to be stained!"
Uta stared at the giant pirate without showing any signs of weakness.
"I just want to get to know you, my lovely princess."
"With this unique voice, you must be the recently popular singer Uta. How much money can I get if I sell you?"
"Idiot! The prince will come to save the princess! Don't you know! Third rate!"
she shouted.
"Luffy!"
Although he was still staring at the store, Luffy's eyes flashed red, and the storm swept across all directions. The pirates fell to the ground one after another, and an empty area cleared in an instant.
"My diva wants you to let her go, pirate."
Luffy turned his head, his eyes glowing an angry red.
Although the pirate did not fall down immediately, the thick Wang Wei formed an invisible pressure and made him kneel straight on the ground.
"Ah...ah..."
The pirate struggled against the invisible thing, trying to get up.
"Damn it, it's a person with abilities!" He said in a very knowledgeable tone.
"What ability, storm?"
Invisible things were always pressing on him, and the lawless fanatic could not look directly into those bright eyes. He unconsciously lowered his head, and the veins in his arms popped out, struggling to pull his body.
What is this invisible pressure? It seems to be emanating from the body.
Is it...fear?
"Luffy! Heeheehee!"
As if nothing happened, Uta trotted and hugged him, still holding the huge ice cream in his left hand.
The body lines are tightly attached.
"A little bit of a distraction."
Luffy hugged Uta, his left hand gently pressed her neck, and his right hand awakened Wang Jian.
There was no pressure, and the sword was swung downwards. The pirate seemed to run in front of the tiger, and then the rabbit stiffened and did not dare to move.
The tiger easily ate it.
Before that, playing with prey was also a feline instinct.
Fear spread in the pirate's heart, and the knife did not fall. He subconsciously looked up.
The blade was on his forehead, and the flames fell under his eyes. It was so hot that he opened his mouth immediately. Another ball of fire fell into his throat, directly burning his throat. He struggled silently and held on tightly. Holding his own throat.
Luffy showed a happy smile, then performed the blood vibration diagonally, and slowly retracted the blade.
"What was Luffy looking at before?"
"Weapons store." Luffy pressed Uta's shoulders and pushed her in.
"That kid...that sword..."
"It can't be wrong, that is, that guy is... Garp's grandson!!!"
The pirates on the street were waking up from a dream, gasping for air.
"He's Garp's grandson!!!"
"A new hero?"
"Welcome, oh my, the new generation is really terrifying..." the owner of the weapon shop said.
"Please feel free to take a look."
"A lot of weapons." Uta looked at the weapons store.
Luffy followed the feeling and walked towards the bucket where many garbage swords were stored.
"Guest, there are some fifty-thousand-berry blades over there. They will break after just a few cuts."
The boss said.
"It's quite suitable for a kid to use a garbage sword." The pirate in the store laughed and laughed.
Luffy held the knife that gave him a special feeling.
Picked up from a crowd of steel waste.
"I see, it's this famous sword, the Demon Sword: The Third Generation Kitetsu."
Luffy gently pulled out the sword and looked at the pattern on it.
The head and small ribs are decorated, and the blade is in the shape of a cross. It is relatively simple, with a shark handle and a rolled handle.
Blade: The blade is long, with a large arc and no blood groove. The blade pattern is a typical flame pattern steel burning blade, which is folded and forged.
The blade is 88 cm long, 1.7 cm wide, and the blade is only about 0.8 mm wide. The "handle" is 22 cm long and 2 cm wide. The "scabbard" is 89 cm long, 1.9 cm wide on the outside, and 1.7 cm on the inside.
The third generation of Kitetsu does not belong to one of the "50 Good Knives", but belongs to the category of Kite, that is, a sword with a lower level than the King Sword.
Its series of second-generation ghosts and first-generation ghosts are called "Twenty-one Great Quick Swords" and "Twelve Skills of the Supreme Great Quick Sword" respectively.
"Did you pull out the knife as soon as you came up?"
The boss smoked a cigarette and looked at Luffy with shame.
He had also seen the commotion on the street just now. Although he was a kid, there was no doubt that he had become a ferocious swordsman.
"That knife...can't be sold, it's a demon knife!"
Out of conscience, he couldn't help but say it.
"What? Really? The demon knife is in those garbage dumps?"
The pirate looked in shock and greedily looked at the knife in Luffy's hand.
"Hey kid, give me the knife, I want this knife!"
The pirates gathered around, reaching out to grab the knife.
The pirates don't care whether they have demon swords or not.
Having a sharp weapon is enough to raise your combat effectiveness to a higher level, and this is also a famous knife, which makes you look more majestic when worn on your body.
Luffy pulled out the Third Demon King and slashed him with a swing.
Oni Tetsu sliced open the pirate's body easily.
"Nice sharpness." Luffy admired as he looked at the knife.
"What's going on with this kid? He started chopping him up without saying a word!"
Some pirates couldn't help but take out their guns.
"What age are you still playing with knives? You brats who dare to hurt us..."
The sword flashed and the gun was split into two.
"I'm sorry, times haven't changed yet. Don't you think you are too close to me?" Luffy said, watching Guiteru.
"It's close enough that you can cut it with your hand, so don't say that times have changed.
Uta licked the ice cream and shook her head helplessly.
"I want this sword. Is there any sword of the same level as this one?" Luffy put away Kitetsu and asked the boss.
"That's a demon sword!" The boss couldn't help but say.
"What does Luffy want with this sword?" Uta asked.
"Give it to Zoro as a gift from him. That guy is a two-swordsman."
"Hey, that's a demon sword. Do you want to give it as a gift?" The boss knocked on the table.
"Don't worry, even though it's a demon sword, it's still a weapon. It's the demon sword that you can't control," Luffy said.
This shop should also have a knife called Yukizai.
"Are there any famous swords? I bought them together."
"..."
The store owner moved his eyes slightly and looked at the hilt of the sword on Luffy's back.
"Yes, yes, but can you show me the sword on your back?"
"please."
Luffy took out the King Sword and placed it on the table.
This heavy sword immediately attracted the boss's attention.
"What a gorgeous pattern, the hand of a master... This feeling is unmistakable, it is also a demon knife?!"
"Are you using this kind of knife too?" He looked at Luffy in surprise.
"A sword that has never been seen before, a new good and fast sword. Only recently has this sword begun to be praised in the sea. Because the owner of the sword can cut off people and soldiers together, it is also known as "Can cut even steel" The sword…what’s its name?”
The boss asked Luffy.
"It? It doesn't have a name. It's just my sword. It will become famous because of me."
"The first soldier?
That's it, no wonder it hasn't been bitten by you, because it's happy to get along with you.
You didn't notice its temper, and it also restrained its character...
But it is still a demon sword. When its temper gets worse, you may regret it and change it to a different sword. "
"I'll trade it with you in the snow."
The boss smiled sinisterly.
He took out the exquisite and gorgeous scabbard and pulled out the blade. The blade was black lacquered and the blade was a small T-shaped blade.
"It's one of the fifty fine swords, and it's a famous sword. You won't suffer."
