From the Navy Admiral to the Gotei 13

Mihawk? ? ?

After a brief pause, Mihawk asked, "Your pirate group? Are you a pirate? And a captain?"

"That's right, I haven't introduced myself yet. My name is Shanks, and I'm a pirate!" Shanks said with a smile.

You know what, his smile is quite contagious.

Mihawk looked at the boundless sea, then at Shanks. He felt that their meeting here was perhaps fate, so he asked with a little interest, "Where is your boat? Can you ask your friends to pick us up? I don't want to swim anymore..."

If I really get connected, wouldn’t it be nice to get in touch with them?

If you feel it is not suitable later, you can leave.

Mihawk thought about this with a little anticipation.

But Shanks laughed and said, "Hahahaha, it's a bit embarrassing to say this, but my ship just sank. As for crew members and partners, ahem, I don't have any for now. I'm looking for them. You can be my first partner!"

Mihawk? ? ?

What the hell are you crazy about?

I actually thought you were a bit pleasing to the eye just now, but damn it!

You've gotten into such a mess, who can you recruit as a partner?

Give me back the little bit of hope I had for you just now, you bastard!

Cursing Shanks for being an idiot countless times in his heart, Mihawk remained calm on the surface. He shook his head and said, "Forget it. I'm not interested. Let's just say goodbye. Goodbye..."

After saying that, Mihawk turned around and swam towards the distant sea.

I will never come to the East China Sea again. The navy I met was crazy. He beat me up and left without saying a word. The pirates I met were also crazy. I, Mihawk, have been traveling around the world for so many years, but I have never seen such an outrageous recruitment.

But Shanks didn't give up so quickly. He felt that meeting Mihawk here was fate.

So he swam after her while shouting, "Hey, don't be in such a hurry to leave. Let's get to know each other. Don't look at me like this. I'm a member of the Pirate King Roger's crew. My story is very exciting. Do you have any wine with you? I've been swimming for a long time and I'm a little thirsty. Give me a couple of sips of wine and I'll tell you my story!"

At this point, Mihawk had completely regarded Shanks as a psychopath. He didn't want to look at him at all. Without even turning his head, he said, "Are you still a member of Roger's crew? I'm not afraid to tell you, I'm the number one swordsman of the Rocks Pirates..."

"Ah? I didn't realize you were so old. I thought you were about the same age as me..." Shanks said in surprise.

Mihawk's face darkened. "Don't you understand that I'm mocking you?"

Not wanting to say another word to the idiot Shanks, Mihawk slung the black knife behind him, swung his arms, and began to accelerate.

Shanks actually sped up as well, chasing Mihawk while nagging, "Your swimming form isn't standard. It's a waste of energy. Do you want me to teach you? My vice-captain, Senior Rayleigh, is really good at this. I learned from him, and he's even freestyled across the doldrums several times..."

"Speaking of which, you dare to call yourself the best in kendo, aren't you really that amazing?"

"If the two of us go out to sea together, we can be called the Double Sword Team. I'm a swordsman too!"

"My sword is Griffin, you should have heard of it, right? Although it can't compare to your black sword. Ye, it is also a famous sword." "Would you like me to show it to you? Of course, in exchange, you can also let me play with your black sword...."

Shanks is a naturally eccentric guy, and he has been sailing alone in a sampan in the East China Sea for a long time, so he has a lot of nonsense to talk about.

Diarmait hadn't communicated with him much before, but now that he met Mihawk, he opened up and started talking nonstop.

Mihawk in front was getting angrier and angrier as he swam. He was already very annoyed by being suddenly beaten by the navy, and Shanks was like a fly, chattering behind him... The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. Mihawk suddenly stopped his movements, pulled out the black knife behind him, and cursed: "I'm going to fight you, I'm going to kill you, you bastard!!!" As soon as the words fell, Mihawk raised his hand and slashed at Shanks in the sea.

Shanks was also startled and pulled out his 590 sword from underwater. Griffin blocked Mihawk's attack and cursed, "What are you doing? Are you crazy? Why did you attack me so suddenly?" Crazy? How dare you call me crazy?

Are you fucking sick?

Mihawk ignored Shanks and raised his hand to chop him down again.

Just like that, Shanks and Mihawk, soaking in the sea water, started their first duel in their lives.

It was intense and hilarious.

Diarmait didn't know that in the sea area he had just left, Shanks and Mihawk had started another fierce battle in the sea.

At this time on the warship, Diarmait had just finished telling Gion about these things.

"Well, Sakaski rarely asks for help, and I feel embarrassed to refuse him..." Diarmuid said with a guilty tone.

Gion didn't seem to care at all, as if he was in a good mood after beating up Mihawk. He waved his hand and said, "No big deal, let's go then? I'll come too. As for Sky Island, just treat it as a trip. Come to think of it, I haven't been there in a while. Let's beat up Kaido while we can."

Originally, they came here for a tour of Gion, but problems kept cropping up along the way, and Diarmait felt a bit embarrassed.

But seeing Gion say these things so generously, he was also very moved.

As for Gion's request to go together, Diarmuid did not deny it. After all, Gion was also very strong.

"Okay, then let's not go to Frost Moon Village. Let's go back to Windmill Village first and take that guy Garp with us." Diarmait said.

Help people to the end. Sakaski finally spoke up for me. As his good friend and brother, shouldn't I support him?

At that time, Diarmuid, Gion, and Garp will appear in Mary Geoise together and go to help Sakaski.

I guess Sakaski would be so moved that he would shed tears?

What is this? This is the strong bond of comradery, this is the Navy family!

Everyone for me, and I for everyone!

Helping others is the root of happiness! As for Kaido and the like...

If he knew about this, I don't know if he would be moved, but he would definitely shed sincere tears, right?

Chapter 196 Sakaski: You are Dorag’s wife, right?! (Update )

In the end, I didn't make it to Shimotsuki Village, nor did I get to visit Isshin Dojo, meet Mr. Koshiro, and Kuina, who was probably only one or two years old.

But this is not a very important matter. Diarmait does not have too many regrets in his heart. If there is an opportunity in the future, he can come again at any time.

After returning to the Windmill Village, Diarmait picked up Garp, Tina, and Bell-mère, and brought Nami, Nojigo, Ace, and Luffy, Diarmait's warship headed towards Marijoa.

It’s not particularly far to go directly from Windmill Village to Marijoa, but when the warship arrives at Marijoa.

Time has quietly come to the beginning of 1505.

"Is this Marijoa?" Bellmère stood on the red earth continent, looking at the prosperous Marijoa, feeling a little emotional.

She is a genuine East China Sea bumpkin. She is almost 21 this year. She has been a soldier in the navy for four years and has never left the East China Sea.

He was originally preparing to retire, but was suddenly noticed by the admiral of the navy, and inexplicably had to live in Marineford, the headquarters of the navy.

The bumpkin's life trajectory suddenly changed dramatically.

She never imagined that her first stop after leaving the East China Sea would be the holy land of Mary Geoise.

People who have never been to Mary Geoise still have a very good impression and expectations of this so-called holy place.

Especially in the East China Sea, the World Government has the deepest operations in the East China Sea. The East China Sea is known as the Sea of ​​Peace. Therefore, the people of the East China Sea generally have a higher degree of favorability towards the World Government.

Bell-mère has not encountered so many bad things, so she has a good trust in the World Government. Now that she sees Mary Geoise, she is of course extremely excited.

But soon, Tina stood beside her and said, "Bell, as someone who has experienced this, I want to remind you that it's best not to set foot in Mary Geoise casually in the future..."

Bellmère, who was originally excited, looked at Tina with some surprise.

Diarmait on the side also laughed. What a veteran you are! The last time you came, you were not much better than Bell-mère!

Tina pretended to be experienced, looking at the prosperous Mary Geoise in the distance. Her eyes were slightly 'deep', and her tone was deliberately lowered. "Where there is light, there must be shadow. Beneath the prosperity of Mary Geoise, countless jaw-dropping crimes are hidden..."

Diarmait???

Why does this sound so familiar to me? Hey, you just copied it from me?

Bellemeier was stunned for a moment, then said in surprise, "Sin? Not here. Isn't this a holy place?"

"Well, anyway, Marijoa is very dangerous. If a beautiful single mother like you is noticed by some nobles or Celestial Dragons, you will be in big trouble. Anyway, don't come to Marijoa alone without our company!" Tina said quickly.

At this moment, Garp walked over carelessly, nodded, and said, "Bell, Tina is right. Marijoa is not a good place, and the Celestial Dragons are a bunch of rubbish. It's very troublesome to run into them. In short, don't come here alone without us."

Belle Mare???

No, you are a naval hero, is it appropriate to say such things?

Keeping saying that the Celestial Dragons are trash is a capital crime, right?

Are all the navy in headquarters so arrogant now?

Ah. Although she was surprised, seeing the naval hero say so, and the admiral beside her lighting a cigar with a nonchalant look, it seemed that this so-called holy land of Marijoa might really be hiding a lot of darkness and evil that she was unaware of. Bell-mère was not a fool. There was no reason for her to do something when she was told not to, especially since she had four children to raise. So she said seriously, "I understand."

After a brief pause, she smiled again and said, "Come to think of it, I have to take care of Nojigo, Ace, and the other four, so I usually don't have time to leave Marineford."

"Now that you have four little ones to take care of, you will definitely be too busy to grow oranges. Besides, I haven't found suitable land in Marineford yet." Cap said, touching his chin.

If Bellemere returned to Cocoyasi Village, a remote little village with vast land and sparse population, it would be no problem for her to build an orange plantation.

But Marineford is a place where every inch of land is worth a lot of money. It has been developed very well over the past few hundred years (bccj). It is really difficult to build an orange manor.

Even if Garp is a naval hero, it is not easy for him to do this.

Bell-mère smiled and said, "There's no rush about this. Indeed, if I have to take care of four children, I may not have enough time to grow oranges." "Well, I will give you Ace and Luffy's living expenses on time." Garp nodded.

He didn't say he would cover all of Bellmère's expenses at once.

It's not that he has no money. Garp is well treated in Marineford and has a good salary. Besides, he basically has no need to spend money. The navy's benefits are there.

But during this period of contact, he also knew that although Bellmère was young, he was a very strong-willed person. It was inappropriate to say these things, and he just needed to take more care of him on a daily basis. Bellmère nodded and said, "No problem."

At this moment, Diarmait suddenly seemed to have thought of something and said, "Oh, by the way, isn't Mr. Poe planning to retire recently?" "Ah, Scarlett? That guy is quitting?" Cap asked in surprise.

"Yes, he said that his legs and feet are becoming increasingly inconvenient, and he is old, so he is preparing to return to his hometown in the West Sea. He has made a lot of money over the years. I heard that he bought a mansion in the capital of his hometown, and also paid for the status of a baron. He will be a noble lord when he returns, hahahaha." Diarmait laughed.

Gion on the side also laughed when he heard this and said, "He suddenly turned from a tavern owner into a noble lord? Mr. Po's life is really exciting..." "That guy made a lot of money." Garp nodded in agreement.

When Boss Poe was young, he was a major general in the navy. Although he was a general officer at the second lowest level, with only a brigadier general below him, he was still in the rank of general officer and was considered a senior figure in Marineford.

Therefore, he has a wide network of contacts. He knows the marshal, the general of the Warring States period, and Garp also has a good relationship with him.

If he hadn't injured his leg and turned into a slope, if he had developed normally, he would have been a powerful lieutenant general now.

However, even though he retired due to injury, he opened a tavern in Marineford with the help of a group of comrades, and this tavern named "Navy Club" became the favorite tavern of the Marineford Navy.

Although there is no threshold to enter the tavern, most of the navy know that this is the place where generals and officers most often go. Occasionally, you can even see General Diarmuid and General Zhan Guo coming here to drink.

You can imagine how good the business of this pub will be?

The navy's welfare benefits are very high, especially for officers at the rank of general. Living in Marineford, they basically have no place to spend money. Those who can often go to the pub are also single dogs, and most of them have no family.

So there is plenty of Bailey to spend.

I wonder how much money Boss Po has earned over the years. He is definitely an inconspicuous hidden rich man.

"Boss Po is leaving. We can take over the Navy Club, let Belle-mère be the manager, and hire a few sign girls for her. Then we can make money together." Diarmait said with a smile.
