Chapter 66 The road ahead
After one move, the group stopped fighting with Garp, but in the end he knew in his heart that he lost. The old man in front of him was far superior to him in all aspects. The reason why Mr. Garp competed with him was because of this move. Test his specific strength.
After giving up, Garp actually invited him to join the navy, which made the navy who surrounded them again speechless. In addition to the famous pirate being his grandson, this legendary hero even poached his grandson. What's up
"Lieutenant General Garp, the other party is a pirate, how can he join the ranks of the navy." The commander of the station had to give advice to this navy legend to stop his whimsical behavior.
"What nonsense are you talking about? The government has not issued a wanted order for him, and there is no direct evidence that he has become a pirate. Why can't he be recruited into the navy? As long as he agrees, the navy will have a good master in the future. Among the current navy generals Many of them are pirates recruited for safety, there is nothing wrong with this kind of thing." The local garrison commander's objection made Garp directly push back, and it was obvious that he was determined to recruit his party into the navy.
"Boy, you were able to resist my overlord color at such a close distance just now. This is quite good. The Navy welcomes people like you the most. As for all the unreasonable things you saw on this island today, you can put them aside first. Keep it in mind, and just change it when you become stronger in the future. When you are so strong that no one can disobey you, you can change the world. I just hope that you can still maintain your original intention. "
Regardless of his own safety, Garp ignored the dissuasion of the surrounding navy, walked directly to the group and patted him on the shoulder, then jumped into the open space next to the group and waited for his answer.
Being surrounded by such a powerful person made him a little nervous, but the old man was Luffy's grandfather and had an absolute advantage in strength. He should not suddenly kill him, so there was no need to be so vigilant, but if he didn't agree today If so, will we lose our way of survival?
"You are so strong, why don't you change these unreasonable things?"
"Being strong is not enough. Not only am I not enough, even the Pirate King back then was far from enough. We have exhausted our manpower. Roger was born in the wrong era. I can only blame him for his bad luck. In fact, it is not just me. There are also many people in the navy who want to change the world today." But the total number of these people may not be enough to change the current situation of the world."
The old man's words were a little depressing, but it was clear that he spoke from the bottom of his heart. The old forces that hinder the change of this world are much more powerful than imagined.
"Can you be more specific?" Yi Xing still doesn't know much about the world, but he feels that there must be many secrets hidden under the water in such a chaotic world.
"I can only tell you this. If you join the navy and become an admiral, I can tell you everything I know at the appropriate time. This information is enough for you to make your own conclusions about the world. Think about it and wait for you to decide. If you don't, you can go to the Navy Headquarters to find me directly, and I will recommend you to join the Navy."
After saying this, Garp remained silent and turned to look at the battle between Luffy and others, but he did not force him to make an immediate decision.
"Why me?" What is this old man's plan for inviting himself to join the navy? Why is he so optimistic about him?
"Because you are the strongest among your peers I have ever seen and the only one who has such strong strength but has never killed anyone."
This reason is really powerful, simple, clear and to the point. He has been struggling with the issue of whether to become a pirate with Luffy. No matter how many times he thinks about it, he is still conflicted. Today, Luffy's grandfather personally invited him to become a marine. It gave him a new choice.
Comparatively speaking, there are very few pirates like Luffy. Most of them are scum who do all kinds of evil. Just like Eustace Kidd, who massacred small town residents many times, pirates have a bad reputation. It's not without reason. This is also the biggest reason why he has always resisted becoming a pirate.
Although there are some ferocious and cruel people in the navy, these people only use violent methods on pirates, and there are very few naval officers who harm civilians. In particular, there are still some forces in the navy who are working hard to maintain the stability of the world just like the old man in front of them. Perhaps their power is not enough to change the world, nor can they occupy the mainstream in the power center of the world government, but they are. Never give up and persevere.
Suddenly, Yi Xing's idea of joining the navy became stronger and stronger, especially since many of the navy soldiers he saw today had a sincere heart to maintain peace and fight against pirates. Perhaps these people are just grassroots naval soldiers, with low strength and unable to interfere with the direction of the world, but countless islands are protected by their power, and they are the ones who truly protect the happiness of ordinary civilians in this great sea route where pirates are rampant. Protector of tranquility. Relatively speaking, the group hopes that he can become a force to change the direction of the world in the future and change some cannibalistic systems or injustices. Mr. Karp gave him a good way out.
After thinking about it in their hearts, they no longer hesitated. The group decided to wait until Luffy and the others were safely sent to Fish-Man Island this time, and then he would report to the Navy Headquarters.
"I promise you, as long as Luffy and the others can leave this place safely and go to the new world this time, I will join the navy."
"welcome"
Stretching out his right hand, the two shook hands and reached a verbal agreement.
"Please let me join in."
Su Wei, who had been helping the group hold the battle, came over after hearing the conversation between the two, and asked Lieutenant General Garp, who was sitting cross-legged on the left side of the group, to join the navy.
"Yes, as long as it passes the review."
Inviting the group to join was out of love for talents to open the back door, but this woman took the initiative but did not know what her intentions were, and Mr. Karp's answer vaguely contained a rejection.
"Now he and I are advancing together and retreating together. I will follow him wherever he goes. I hope you can understand. In fact, it is not just me, but there are two friends who hope you can also be accommodating. Because of my origin, you are afraid I can’t find out, but I will use enough capital to make your navy executives accept my joining. After Luffy and the others leave safely, I will take two friends and report to the navy headquarters with him. "
"Let's talk about it then. People like you who are related to pirates need Sengoku to make a decision. I can only recommend it."
Thanks to Su Wei's initiative, the group originally planned to take Perona and her to the Navy Headquarters as family members. He didn't have such complicated ideas. Su Wei's words saved him a lot of trouble, and they went together. The naval headquarters will not look out of place.
The three ended the topic of joining the navy and began to pay attention to the battle between the Straw Hats and the pacifists. The three main members of the Straw Hats, plus the newly joined Brooke, a total of nine people started fighting against the pacifists x4.
The three of them worked together to attack with all their strength, and took the lead to fight off the fake bear. Such a high-load battle made the three of them very tired. This was also one of the few joint operations of the three of them in more than two years at sea.
Taking advantage of the break in the battle, Luffy turned to look at his grandfather and his party who were sitting together. He felt relieved when he saw that there were no casualties after the attack and they were not continuing to fight, and continued to deal with the pacifist in front of him with all his strength.
The fake bear that was knocked away hit the roots of a huge mangrove tree in the distance and stopped, splashing smoke and dust all over the ground.
"The three of them are indeed very strong. They knocked the fake bear away with just one move. Have they already won?"
Nami looked happily at the three people who defeated the enemy with one move, and the fear in her heart was reduced a lot. However, after all, her strength was limited and she could not see the seriousness of the problem. How could the human weapons developed by the government specially for pirates be used by just newcomers? Knocked down with one move.
"Not yet. The other party is not injured at all. Didn't you see that the three of them are not slacking off at all?"
In the previous fight, Franky saw through the fake bear's true nature. It was just a robot made by the government in the shape of the Shichibukai. Although it was not the real Shichibukai, such an attack would not be able to defeat the opponent for a while. This also made He gained a new understanding of his own shortcomings.
"Pacifist, I seem to have seen similar news in the intelligence and heard similar rumors. Rumors say that it is the latest weapon developed by the government. It was developed under the leadership of Dr. Vegapunk to deal with the era of great pirates. The problem of pirates running rampant has been circulating for many years but there is no real thing. I didn't expect that it would appear to deal with us. It's really lucky." After all, Robin once served as a subordinate of the Shichibukai, and he has some concerns about pacifists. Hearing is also normal.
"Now, Yi Xing and Su Wei are both held back by Luffy's grandfather. We have to rely on our own strength to defeat this guy."
Robin glanced in the direction of the group. Although the two sides were no longer fighting, it was probably impossible to rescue them. Luffy's grandfather had already made a lot of concessions in the current situation.
As expected by Franky, the fake bear who was hit hard by the three people stood up again, as if the heavy blow just now did not hit him and had no effect.
"This guy's body is too hard. Could it be that his whole body is made of steel?"
Although Luffy and the three had the upper hand in the previous attack, the pacifists who stood up again did not show any reaction to being attacked. This made Usopp a little nervous and began to doubt the opponent's structure. Of course, this also had something to do with him. Being born timid has something to do with it.
The fake bear stood up again, straightened his arms and opened his palms, pointing his palms in the direction of the Straw Hats. This was the first time that this iron guy had taken an offensive stance.
"That guy can also send out shock waves?"
The enemy in front of them looks so much like the Shichibukai Big Bear that some people who have seen the bear's impact power still have lingering fears. However, what is reassuring is that there is no meat ball on the palm of the fake bear. Instead, there is a round hole in the palm. Central location.
A laser beam shot out from the round hole, passing through the gaps between the people and hitting the open space behind. The impact caused by the explosion can be described as flying sand and rocks, and the air flow created made everyone unable to open their eyes. Although it was not a shock wave, the power of the light wave should not be underestimated. The ground that was hit formed a large pit with flying stones everywhere. The power of the laser was so powerful that the stone ground in the middle of the pit melted.
"It's light waves"
"very scary"
Even this legendary weapon has appeared. Being hit with such a powerful force is no joke. The light wave is not only powerful, but also comes with extremely high temperature. The burnt stones on the ground are proof of this. , everyone must be more careful. Awesome novel "hongcha866" WeChat official account, see more
