I'm a big pirate, and you said I just went out to sea?

Chapter 7 Set off to the land of giants!

On the nameless sea, a dilapidated sailboat is sailing against the wind.

The angle formed by the sail surface and the wind direction creates a pressure difference on both sides of the sail, which can generate power to push the sailboat forward even against the wind.

However, Munger intentionally controlled the degree of the angle, making the sailboat move forward extremely slowly, and sometimes even move backwards. And every time it moved backwards, it was the most difficult time for Rocks.

"You old bastard, you will get your comeuppance!!!"

At the bottom of the sailboat, Rocks was panting like a fighting bull. On his left and right sides were the oars that Monger had specially lengthened for him so that he could power the boat by rowing.

It is called exercise.

"Okay, that's it for today."

Hearing Monger's words, Rocks's expression relaxed and he almost collapsed.

A month has passed since Monger was attacked by the Blood Skull Pirates. During this month, Monger passed through two islands and two countries recorded on the pointer.

Unfortunately, both countries are non-governmental member states, and there is no bounty for Farrell's head.

That’s 170 million Baileys!

After parting ways with his old crew, Munger had less than five million baileys in his pocket. If he had retired normally, this amount of money would have been enough.

But if you want to make a comeback, that's a long way off.

Of course, Rocks, a rookie pirate with no criminal record, has to go to exchange for the bounty. If it were Monger, he would be surrounded by the navy fleet in minutes.

"Captain, is this kind of exercise really useful?"

Rocks collapsed on the ground, looking at the ceiling at the bottom of the sailboat with despair. He always felt that this was far from what he had imagined, the scene of galloping freely on the sea.

"Of course it works!"

Mengge raised his eyebrows and said bluntly, "With your current strength, you can't beat any naval officer. Your physical fitness is too poor. The basis for using skills is to have equal strength and physique!"

"Then when can I learn the trick you use?"

Rocks barely waved his sore arm. Monger certainly knew what he was talking about, but how could an ordinary person who didn't eat the devil fruit want to use the giants' special skills?

"At least wait until you learn Haki."

The current Rocks can be said to be just an "ordinary person". Although he is an ordinary person in this world, it at least shows that Rocks' strength has not reached the level of a "monster" in the eyes of ordinary people.

However, although Rocks is not a "monster" yet, his progress speed is almost the same as that of a monster.

A month ago, he could only barely push the extended oars.

Now, he can row for half an hour straight before he feels tired.

The posture of a hegemon is so terrifying!
In fact, if Rocks did not provoke the Celestial Dragons in the future and went to war with the Navy, the Celestial Dragons and Roger's pirate group at the same time, Roger might not have a chance to become one of the Pirate Kings.

At this rate, Monger felt that it wouldn't take long for Rocks to learn the Six Styles of the Navy.

Domineering is also on the agenda.

What if the Conqueror's Haki awakens again?

hiss~
Thinking about it, Monger suddenly felt a lot of pressure.

After all, he is old and his potential has been exhausted. Even if he recovers to his prime with the help of the system, there is still a certain gap between him and the Four Emperors of the Sea in later generations.

Unless he completely masters the Conqueror's Haki, or at least learns the Conqueror's Haki Entanglement.

In this world, there are three types of domineering.

It can enhance perception and develop to the extreme point of being able to foresee the future.

It can enhance attack and defense capabilities, and when developed to the extreme, it can launch external attacks through the air, and even achieve internal destruction through armed color domineering.

And the domineering aura that can intimidate ordinary soldiers and mentally suppress the weak.

The mark of true mastery of Conqueror's Haki is the ability to influence reality with Conqueror's Haki, using it to influence the physical world and to interfere with reality with one's mind. This is the proof of a Conqueror. Haki is a potential ability that everyone in this world is born with. Everyone can cultivate both Observation Haki and Armament Haki, but the highest levels of Observation Haki and Conqueror's Haki are only possessed by a very few.

Before the system appeared, Monger did not have the qualifications for Conqueror's Haki.

So now Monger has changed his mind about the system.

Although there is a problem with his system, if there wasn't one, he might not be able to possess the qualifications of Conqueror's Haki so easily.

Since he already has the qualifications for Conqueror's Haki, how far away will he be from obtaining the highest level of Observation Haki?

Monger thought happily.

"Captain, how far is Elbaf?"

After a brief rest, Rocks got up from the ground, put one hand on his waist, scooped water from the wooden barrel and drank it while asking.

Although he always had the idea of ​​becoming a captain and working alone, after seeing Mung's strength, Rocks had a new idea.

"Anyway, this old guy doesn't have many years left to live. I'll stay by his side and learn everything he knows. Then, I'll kick him out and send him off to live out his days."

Rocks, who was born in a small place, knows very well that in this world, talent alone is useless. You also need a qualified teacher to teach you how to develop your talent, so that you can avoid many detours.

For example, during this month, although Rocks was almost dying under Munger's training, he clearly felt it.

The current him can beat several times as many people as he did a month ago!

"almost."

Glancing at the permanent pointer in his hand, Monger said without raising his head.

Sailing on the sea for so many years.

Nothing else.

There are a lot of permanent pointers, including one in Elbaf, the country of giants.

As for why we went to Elbaf.

"Thank you for your hard work over the years, old friend."

Mung gently stroked the plank of the Black Pearl. It was originally a name chosen on a whim, and no one would have thought that this ship would accompany him for so long.

The weather in this world is much worse than that in the other world, so the sailboats built in this world cannot have a lifespan of hundreds of years like in the other world.

Not to mention fifty years, if the keel of the ship is not good, the whole ship may fall apart in a storm.

The Black Pearl accompanied him for forty-five years.

This was his seventh year on the sea when he finally saved enough money to build a boat. The keel of the boat came from a piece of Adam wood that Monger picked up accidentally. This is the toughest tree in the world, no doubt about it.

However, forty-five years is enough time for this world. Even a strong wood like Adam's wood will inevitably be damaged.

The Black Pearl has completed its mission!

The Black Pearl could no longer accompany him on new adventures, so Monger went to Elbaf to build a new ship.

As a great pirate, he looked down upon ships built from ordinary trees.

If you're going to build something, build the best!

Is there any better shipbuilding material in the world than Adam wood?
There is an Adam Tree in Elbaf!

This was one of the reasons why Monger went to Elbaf.

As for the second reason.

"By this time, Charlotte Linlin, one of the future Four Emperors, should have arrived in Elbaf by now, right?"

Monger thought expectantly.
