Pirate's Gas Fruit

Chapter 9 Learning
But she didn't expect that Mr. Maud would be in the castle after the battle. Keya suddenly became happy and exchanged information about herself, smiling and saying,

"No, Mr. Maude is very powerful. You know, I just asked him to show me how to cut open the rockery in the garden. Do you know, he really did it. With one cut, the flowers and plants almost blew away. He stood up, and then even the knife was broken into pieces. It was really amazing! "

"Hahahaha, it's really that powerful. Where is it, how is it possible!" Usopp was so frightened that he almost shrank and ran away, laughing awkwardly.
"Really, look at this box. The knives inside are all broken. Usopp, I have actually seen it with my own eyes!"

"Let me see, no, it's impossible, really!"

Usopp looked up at the box that Keya had opened and saw the handle of the knife and the broken blade inside. He couldn't believe it, but Keya began to tell him the story of Morde's stone-cutting in a flurry of voices.
Keya has been listening to Usopp telling his legendary stories, and now it was her turn to have a story and she was very happy and excited.
The two just told stories like childhood sweethearts, just like Maude didn't want the cute and innocent Keya to be sad, so did Usopp, he tried his best to weave Maude into his story collection as happily as possible, and became the leader of eight thousand subordinates. A member of the younger brother.
Because his subordinates are so powerful, they are all powerful beings who split the island and kill giant monsters. A swordsman who can cut rocks can only be a junior.
Usopp chatted with Keya for nearly an hour. Seeing that she was tired, he quickly got off the tree and ran into the garden. Then he came to the rockery. When he saw the intact rockery, his nose twitched. I feel like Keya is also deceiving people.
But with extremely sharp eyes, he suddenly discovered something. He ran forward quickly and touched a straight gap in the middle of the rockery.
Looking up and down, Usopp couldn't help but gasp. Looking at the two-meter-high rockery in front of him, he couldn't help but take a few steps back in fear. Only when he saw no one around did he feel relieved and patted his chest.
"It's just cutting a stone, what's the big deal, hahahaha!"

On the big tree nearby, Maud sat there holding an apple and looked at the awkward laughter of a guy with a long nose in front of the rockery. She couldn't help but find it interesting. Although Usopp often lies now, most of his future will come true. Already.
A lie that comes true is the truth, not a lie, and Usopp will still be quite powerful as a sniper in the future.
After Usopp left, Mod couldn't help but look up at the castle, staring straight at the quiet room where Crowe was, and then went to a study room in the castle. Uncle Brewster arranged for a butler to explain it to him. Sailing experience.
In a study room, an old and gray housekeeper skillfully took out books one by one from the bookcase, carefully held a stack high and placed it on the table.
"Originally, navigation knowledge requires a long time to learn, but I only have seven days. It is enough to just learn how to identify the direction. These books are full of navigation knowledge. I will find out the direction identification for Mr. Maude!"

Ahem, the old housekeeper wore white gloves while flipping through a book, checking it carefully, then opened it and placed it in front of Maud's eyes.
Suddenly something occurred to him. He looked at Maude's shabby suit and asked carefully,
"Mr. Maude, are you literate? I'm sorry, I'm just confirming your knowledge level. You must know that most ordinary people only know some common words, and most of them learn to read through newspapers. Such knowledge level is far from learning profound navigation knowledge. Far from enough!"

"No problem, leave it to me so I can understand!" Maud said with a smile without any blame.
The old housekeeper nodded, handed the book to Maud, and then watched him quietly check the contents of the navigation knowledge on the direction of identification. When he saw this, he couldn't help but find the contents of other books on the direction of identification.
Maude almost understood how the world distinguishes directions after just reading it.
If you want to find the direction, you need to look for constant things, such as the sun, stars, moon, and items that are easy to identify the direction, such as compasses, watches, and your own hands, etc. These can quickly and skillfully identify the direction.
But for more advanced ones, you can also identify the direction based on changes in sea currents, trees on the islands, and more magically, animals.
Maud was stunned when he saw seabirds used to identify directions. This was the first time he had heard of it. He even read that people relied on their sense of smell to identify directions. It was incredible. In order to find the direction accurately on the sea, people Tried many methods.
Maude no longer wanted to wander around the sea for hours and days, so she couldn't help but look at it very seriously.
Suddenly the door opened with a creak, and Uncle Brewster was seen smoking a pipe. He couldn't help but be startled. He nodded to the old housekeeper who looked up, closed the door and left. The old housekeeper couldn't help but look at Maud studying by herself. surprise.
Since many ordinary people could read newspapers and read, he was still very fond of someone who could read navigation knowledge.
So the old housekeeper taught him more attentively, and Maude did not refuse. He stayed in the study room for three days in a row. Sometimes Miss Keya came to look at him curiously, hoping that he could show more strength.
For example, like an ordinary swordsman under Usopp, he can cut off a house with one sword, and he can do it with just one wave of his hand, and the sword will not break. Keya hopes that Maud will also show such strong strength, because Mr. Maud does not Not ordinary.
When Mod heard this, he couldn't help but feel a headache. Usopp probably saw the sword marks on the rockery and started to make up ordinary swordsmen, and all of them were better than Mod.
This Usopp is really a trap. Mod could only say that the Keya family is very important. If it is destroyed, no one can live in it. Only then did Miss Keya stop. She couldn't help but be frightened when she thought of this.
Usopp and Keya were telling each other about the magic of swordsmen, but Uncle Brewster didn't pay much attention to this matter, and he was surprisingly open-minded.
But in three days, it was enough time for Crowe, who pretended to be seriously injured, to recover. During lunch, Maud was playing with a spoon and quietly looked at the guy in front of him who called himself Krabater. The other person had shoulder-length hair. Hai wears glasses and looks very elegant.
Krabater raised his head and said with a natural expression,

"Mr. Maude, you are very curious about me, but I am just a little porter. Fortunately, I survived my master's treatment. Krabattle only hopes to work by my master's side to repay this kindness?"

Uncle Brewster laughed and said,

"There is no such thing as kindness. You risked your life and fought to help us fight off the pirates. You are the benefactor of our village!"

"If you want to stay, you can, but I'll have to be a trainee housekeeper!"

Oh, this is still aggrieved. Maud looked at Crowe and Brewster arranged the other party very well as soon as Crowe said it. She was afraid that as soon as the old butler left, this guy would directly take over as the housekeeper, but this was also the appearance of Crowe. He has the demeanor of an extremely knowledgeable young man.
In an environment where ordinary people are generally illiterate, as long as they can be trusted, Crowe is a good candidate for the housekeeper.
Maude looked at Crowe, her expression changed and she suddenly smiled and suggested,
"Uncle Brewster, I think everything needs a process. Mr. Krabattle has just recovered from his illness and needs more rest. How about this? Let Mr. Krabattle familiarize himself with me in Xibro Village in the past few days!"

When Brewster saw Maud's suggestion, he agreed casually mid-sentence and said,
"Mod, you don't need to learn how to identify directions on the sea, but why don't we go out and relax together when you have time?"

"I'm just trying to get to know Mr. Maude. It's an honor for Krabattle to befriend a powerful swordsman. Please give me your advice!" After hearing this, Crowe glanced at Maude and stood up with a very calm expression. Dao Wan stroked his glasses out of habit.
Maud laughed, "Hahahaha, me too!"

Keya's family didn't think anything of it. They seemed to think that it would be a good thing for Maud to get to know Krabattle, but they didn't think much about it. As for Keya, they didn't care about these things at all.
