From Pirates to the Strongest Death God in Soul Society

Chapter 11 Smoker: I wanted to refuse him loudly, but he offered too much!

Although he felt that Smoker's words were more of a polite gesture, Bane still decided to raise his demands with the mentality of giving it a try.

"If there's anything that requires the Navy's help, then I personally do have a few small requests." Bane sat up straight and looked at Smoker expectantly.

Smoker was also stunned for a moment. No, are you really mentioning it?
But considering Marshal Zhan Guo's previous words, Smoker also responded: "I wonder how I can help you?"

"That's right. As I said before, I have great admiration and yearning for our navy. I also hope to devote myself to this just cause in the future. However, due to the current situation, I can't do that for now." Bane also said a few flattering words.

Then he changed the subject and said, "I personally don't have much confidence in my own strength. I hope to grow more in the next two years of experience. I heard that the navy has a very powerful basic physical technique called Six Styles. If possible, I would like to learn it. Is it convenient for you, Colonel Smoker?"

"Ah?" Smoker looked at Bane in surprise, feeling very confused.

He had previously estimated that Bane would be able to defeat Thatch, so his strength should be quite good. Why did he suddenly want to learn the Six Styles of their navy?

However, when it comes to the Six Styles physical skills, although they are powerful, they are indeed relatively basic. What's more important is that the Six Styles are not kept secret and are widely circulated on the sea. The reason is that the navy teaches them as a basic physical skill for officers. Maybe not everyone can master them all, but everyone basically knows them.

Once the base number increases, the level of confidentiality will naturally decrease. Over the years, the navy has had many corrupt members. After these people betrayed the navy and fled to the sea, they spread the Six Styles to a certain extent.

As it stands, as long as you are willing to spend money, you can buy the complete six-style tutorial on the black market.

So although Smoker was a little confused, he did not think that Bane's request was too outrageous.

After a brief thought, Smoker nodded and said, "Normally, we would only teach these six styles to members of the navy, but I can make the decision to teach them to you, Lord Bane. I hope that after you have further strengthened your strength, you can eliminate more disasters from the sea."

Bane said happily, "No problem. I will travel around the East China Sea during this period. If I encounter pirates or villains, I will not sit idly by!"

Seeing this, Smoker nodded in satisfaction, and then asked, "Then, sir..."

He thought it was about right, didn't he? Before he could finish his words, Bane looked at Smoker expectantly and said, "Speaking of which, I also yearn for the power of domineering. I wonder if you can give me some advice, Colonel Smoker?"

Smoker hadn't heard the word Haki for many years in the East China Sea, and for a moment he even felt a little nostalgic. In the past few years, all he met in the East China Sea were small-time pirates. In addition, as the base commander, the many trivial matters he had to deal with on a daily basis also tied up his energy, so that Smoker almost forgot when was the last time he used Haki to practice?
Thinking of this situation, Smoker touched his nose a little embarrassedly and said, "Have you not mastered the power of domineering yet?"

This really puzzled him. You said you didn't know Rokushiki, so it was okay if you were just curious, but if you didn't even know Haki, how did you kill Thatch?
Bane knew that he had been exposed in this regard, which made Smoker a little suspicious.

But he didn't care. The matter of Sachi could be kept secret for a while, but not forever. Sooner or later, it would be known to others. Instead of trying every means to cover it up, he might as well seize the opportunity to gain more benefits.

"I can only say that I have some insights." Ben said shyly, "I do know that the practice of domineering is a kind of..."

He recounted some of the information he knew in his previous life mixed with his own understanding, and then said: "But in the final analysis, these are all unconventional methods, so I also want to compare them with the domineering power held by the navy, and verify each other."

After listening to Bane's views on domineering, Smoker felt a little emotional. According to his own explanation, this was indeed a wild way, mixed with many confusing ideas.

Considering Bane's age and the fact that he didn't have a mentor, it must have been difficult for him to stumble through life on the sea and reach this point. It was quite remarkable for him to maintain his integrity under such circumstances. "I understand your difficulty, but unlike the Six Styles, Haki is not something I'm comfortable with." Although Smoker was optimistic about Bane, he wasn't about to teach him Haki casually, so he was prepared to decline Bane's request.

As soon as Bane heard this, he knew what Smoker meant. He didn't feel regretful, as he had just mentioned it casually. It would be best if he could get it, but if he couldn't, it was acceptable.

Anyway, I can go to Koshiro and try later. It's not like I don't have other options.

However, after he thought for a moment, a dark aura emanated from his hand, and soon, a suitcase that had just been put into the dark space reappeared on the table.

"Regarding the matter of domineering, I don't want to take advantage of our navy for nothing. There should be 100 million berries in this box. I am willing to donate it to the navy of our Rogue Town as a token of my gratitude. I hope you, Colonel Smoker, will not refuse." Bane looked at Smoker very sincerely.

Smoker? ? ?
Good guy, you want to spend my money to do your business, right?
But even though Smoker just gave the bounty to Bane so generously, in fact, if you ask whether the Rogue Town Navy is short of money, the answer is yes. What army doesn't lack money?

However, the accounts on the navy side are clear, and the items are what they should be. Military funds from other projects cannot be arbitrarily misappropriated to do things. Smoker is a very honest person, and it is even more impossible for him to play any tricks here.

So sometimes Smoker also has a headache about funds.

And now, he has given the bounty to Bane, but if Bane is willing to give back to their Rogue Town Navy, that would be great. It would mean that he would have a sum of cash in his hands that he can use at will, and it would not be against any rules.

This quarter's military budget has not yet been allocated, but some sailors and their families who were injured or even died in the line of duty in the base are anxiously waiting. Smoker has a batch of old guns that he has always wanted to replace, and he also wants to expand the base's manpower. All of these things require money.

However, Smoker felt a little embarrassed because of his previous conduct. He wanted to accept it, but was too embarrassed to ask for it.

As soon as Bane saw Smoker's hesitant look, he knew that this was going to be a big deal!
So without waiting for Smoker to speak, Bane waved his hand again, and a briefcase full of cash appeared on the table again.

"You?" Smoker looked at Bane in surprise.

"I heard that since Colonel Smoker took office in Rogue Town, no pirate here has been able to escape from you. I think during this period, the navy of Rogue Town must have paid a heavy price for the cause of justice. As an ordinary person with a conscience, when facing this situation, I also hope to do more for our navy and contribute to the cause of justice. I believe that as long as everyone is willing to contribute a bit, this chaotic era of pirates will be calmed down!" Bane said with a righteous look on his face.

Without waiting for Smoker to speak, Bane patted the box and said, "These two hundred million Baileys are Baileys of justice. I believe that under your leadership, Colonel Smoker, they will be transformed into bullets and blades to hit the evil party. They will become high walls and fortresses to protect the people. Whether for justice or the people, I hope you will not refuse!"

Bane raised the level to such a high level in one breath that Smoker really felt he couldn't refuse.

After a moment, Smoker said sincerely, "Your Excellency, your sense of justice is admirable, and I am very grateful for your support for our navy. In this case, I will accept your kindness on behalf of the navy of Rogue Town!"

Then, before Bane could say anything, Smoker continued, "Speaking of which, I have my own understanding and experience of the power of domineering aura. As a friend, I can give it to you privately, Your Excellency Bane. I hope it can be of some help to you."

"Thank you so much, thank you so much!" Bane thanked him repeatedly upon seeing this.

Who said Smoker is stubborn? Isn't he already cooked?
