Two days later, Kuina once again came to Yuyuko and his party.
It was not that he agreed to Youyouzi's invitation, but that he wanted to participate in the group's practice.
Youyouzi wanted to refuse, but after thinking about it, she agreed.
Yuyuko Koina is determined to win, so if she can integrate into everyone earlier, she won't be out of the ordinary.
Although no one in Yuyuko's group can help Kuina practice swordsmanship, Koushiro will still teach his daughter. She participated in training more in combat and confrontation.
After all, Kuina is already the strongest person besides Koushiro in Ishin Sword Light. At the same time, because she is a woman, everyone will subconsciously let go. Needless to say, Koushiro, a daughter-in-law, would never be able to make a serious move.
But Yuyouzi was still worried.
After all, the plot between Zoro and Kuina has been basically disrupted by her intervention.
"Yuyuko, are you going to buy books today?" Kona asked, sitting on the rocks and looking at the rough ocean.
Yuyuko nodded, "That's almost it. After two months of training, their physical fitness and combat awareness have caught up. Although there is still some gap compared with Amazon Lily's warriors, they are almost ready to start the next step."
It has been two months since Youyouzi and his party came to Shuangyue Village.
In two months, Kona has successfully improved Keya and Qishi, who have little foundation, at least in terms of physical fitness. And because of the addition of Kuina, everyone is not blindly accepting rice in the confrontation. The ravages of Na and Kona.
"Next step?" Kena was speechless. "Is it your next step to develop professional skills?"
Yuyuko rolled her eyes, "Sister Kona, it's not like you don't know my next plan. Buy a boat to catch pirates. The East China Sea isn't like the Grand Line, and with us on the line, there's no pressure at all. The only thing is. What we need to pay attention to is the necessary navigation knowledge, medical knowledge, and ship maintenance knowledge. We are not familiar with these and can only buy books to learn them."
As she said this, Yuyouzi spread her hands, "And this time I can let people start building the ship. Once the ship is built, the study here should be almost done."
Ke Na thought for a while and stopped talking. It was considered that he recognized Yuyouzi's idea.
"By the way, what to do with that green-haired brat? This happens every day."
Zoro, who was determined to challenge Kuina after Kuina almost no longer trained in the gym, also followed. However, after seeing the strength of Yuyuko and her group, he no longer limited himself to Kuina but added more targets for the challenge. A few.
For example, Kona, Mina, Yuyuko, and Reiju.
Yuyuko smiled faintly, "Isn't this good? It just so happens that Keya and Nanami also have goals to challenge. Zoro's persistence and strength put a lot of pressure on the two of them."
"..."
Kona glanced at Yuyuko speechlessly, "You know that's not what I'm talking about."
Although Sauron's challenge is to the four of them, the main target of the confrontation is still Kona.
Yuyuko was always lazy in paddling, and Yuyuko didn't want to participate in this kind of battle without exerting any force at all.
Because Mina is a user with the impact fruit ability, Zoro always loses in a mysterious way.
And Reijiu, Reijiu always uses her bare hands and Zoro doesn't always dare to challenge her.
In the end, Zoro's key target became Kona.
He has no special abilities, is not lazy, and has weapons, so he is the most suitable candidate.
The only inappropriate thing is that Kona's strength is too high.
For Ke Na, it feels like a sparrow comes to your head and disturbs you every day.
two words
trouble.
Yuyuko laughed at this, "Sorry, I can't help it. After all, it's surprising that that guy has perseverance."
"Indeed." Kona nodded speechlessly. "No matter how hard you hit him, he seems to be able to cheer up. Compared to Kuina, I actually think it's better to let him on board. It's a pity..."
He is male.
Youyouzi's requirement for accepting people is that they don't want men.
At the same time, this is also the view shared by Kona and Mina.
Kona doesn't like men herself, while Mina was simply brainwashed by the Nine Snakes Pirates...
"Pity……"
The next day, Yuyuko and Mina set off together.
Because the goal this time was not only to buy books but also to buy a boat, the two of them brought millions of beli with them.
Laughing and laughing all the way.
Malago Town is a busy commercial town in the East China Sea close to the Red Continent. Although the business profits from the mainland will be much lower, it is more convenient for military garrison so there are few pirate attacks here and the business risks are greatly reduced. Therefore, although Profits are much lower, but there is always an endless stream of small businessmen.
A four-story bookstore stands here next to the area where wealthy people gather at the east gate of the town.
【Gate of Knowledge】
"A total of 150,000 Baileys." The somewhat wealthy boss said calmly.
"It's a bit expensive~" She was a little reluctant, but Yuyouzi still paid.
Books about the One Piece world are not cheap, and if they involve professional knowledge, they are even a bit expensive.
After the Tree of Omniscient O'Hara was destroyed by the Demon-Slaying Order, the price of books took off, and the prices of many cherished texts skyrocketed.
Perhaps only the News of the World newspaper is cheaper. But that's still one hundred beli's, and more money will be added when there is additional information.
The reason for the 150,000 Baileys was actually because Yuyouzi didn't buy much, and the most expensive ones were books related to medicine. Books on navigation and ship repair are not too expensive due to the era of great navigation. Moreover, the books Yuyouzi bought were not particularly professional.
After thinking about the expensive books on the fourth floor that started at 100,000 beli, Youyouzi shook her head speechlessly.
Can't afford to learn, can't afford to learn.
Fortunately, Yuyuko only needs to have some basic knowledge now. As for more advanced knowledge, there are many places to learn in the Great Line. For medical skills, there are the Pirate King ship doctor Kurokas in Twin Gorges, Dr. Ku on Drum Island. Leha, and even the island where Chopper was later photographed by a bear. There is no place where ship building technology is more excellent than in the Capital of Seven Waters.
So now Yuyuko just wants some basic knowledge.
"The next step is to go to the shipyard to find a man-made ship." Yuyuko sighed and took Mina to leave the bookstore.
"Sister-in-law Liang, are you going to build a ship?" The boss suddenly stopped Youyouzi.
Yuyouzi stopped and looked back at the boss, "Is there any problem?"
The boss pondered for a moment and said slowly, "The shipyard seems to be haunted recently. I heard there are always some strange noises at night."
"It would be fine if it was just a strange sound, but I have a few shipyard friends there who say that some of their shipbuilding materials always disappear inexplicably. Although there is no news of anyone disappearing, it is always good to be careful.
And I heard that some people have seen figures that disappeared inexplicably at night. "
Yuyuko thanked the bookstore owner for the reminder and pulled Mina out of the bookstore.
"Haunted? Ghost?" Youyouzi smiled lightly.
There are indeed ghosts in this world, but they are all things created by the Devil Fruit's ability, such as zombies created by Moria's Shadow Fruit, ghosts created by the Ghost Fruit, some weird things created by the Soul Fruit, etc.
"Yuyuko, that should be a Devil Fruit user, right?" Mina asked curiously.
"Hmm~"
There aren't that many mysteries in the East China Sea, if there are that many they are probably Devil Fruits.
"Then let's go see it, Ghost of the Dockyard."
…
East China Sea, Modo Island
Several men in black robes stood quietly in front of five men who were covered in scars but still strong.
The leading man clapped his hands in fear, "I didn't expect that there are strong people who have mastered domineering power in the East China Sea. Are you interested in joining us and becoming the enemy of the world?"
A few hours ago, a boatload of people in black robes landed on Modo Island, and the five members of the 'Lan' organization who were sparring nearby were quickly found.
Then a battle started for some reasons.
"An enemy of the world?" Locke laughed, "Who do you think you are?"
The leading man took off his hood, and his left face was covered in tattoos. "I thought you might not have heard of me. Revolutionary Army. Monkey D. Dragon."
"Revolutionary Army? Dragon?" Locke took a step back and took a deep breath. "Are you a dragon? You are indeed a man who will be the enemy of the world, but we still will not follow you."
Seeing Locke's unexpected expression, Long raised his eyebrows, and suddenly there was some surprise in his eyes, "Do you know me?"
Locke nodded and admitted knowing about the dragon.
At the same time, he remembered what Youyouzi said to him one night.
"The leader we follow has talked about you. You should not be wandering around the East China Sea now."
Next to him, Ambrio Ivankov, who took off his hood to reveal a terrifying face with heavy makeup, asked warily, "Do you want to deal with them?"
Long shook his head and said with a smile, "Don't excite Ivan. I care more about the leader they call me than them."
As he said that, Long looked at Locke and said, "I'm very curious. Our revolutionary army has no movement at all right now. How did your leader know about us?"
This time, Long was really confused. Although the Revolutionary Army has been established for many years, they have just begun to plan big things. If the people who know him are the world governments with CP organizations to monitor the whole world, it would be okay, but the weakest It would be a bit strange if several young pirates in the East China Sea knew his information.
You must know that the revolutionary army has just overthrown the rule of the two kingdoms, and it is not a country in the East China Sea. Even the world government has not begun to pay too much attention to them.
However, the weakest one, Donghai, the 'Leader', knew about him and even told his followers about him.
It is not difficult to tell from the expressions of the five people that that person definitely praised him severely in front of these five people.
This is very interesting.
As soon as he took one step forward, a strong wind suddenly blew around the dragon.
"If possible, can we talk about the leader you call the leader?"
Although he was not powerful, he gave Locke great sternness. Compared with the pressure put on the five people by Ivankov and the fish-man dragon next to him just now, it was obviously more than a star and a half higher.
After a few seconds of silence, Locke suddenly burst into laughter, and his whole body suddenly burst out with an astonishing aura to compete with the coercion exuded by the dragon.
Sirok, Laxus, Elman and Denos looked at Locke in surprise. They didn't know that Locke could have such momentum.
"As expected of a man who wants to follow in the footsteps of Lord Leader, not only has he awakened his domineering energy, but now he even has such courage!"
"We need to work hard to keep up with our big brother!"
"Two times the training tomorrow!"
…
But the revolutionary army opposite Locke suddenly had a complex look on his face. Even Long showed a hint of surprise, "This is actually... the color of a king..."
"Hahahaha!" Long instantly put away his momentum and laughed, "Pirates, tell me your name. You shouldn't be a nameless person on this sea!"
Locke also laughed, "Before the flower of miracle blooms, we will only be nameless people on the sea."
Just now, he only felt that he could not be weaker than the other party in terms of momentum. He was a man with the great ideal of realizing the leader's creation of a new world. How could he surrender under the power of others? Suddenly, a shackles seemed to be released in his heart. An unyielding power from heaven and earth surged forward.
As Long restrained his momentum, he also restrained his own. "Your Excellency, we already have our own team. Please forgive us for not complying with the Revolutionary Army's orders."
"Interesting!" Long laughed
"I didn't expect there to be such a person on the East China Sea! I'm really getting more and more curious about the leader you call the leader."
