Pirates of the Lazy General

Chapter 29

After many attempts, Leo finally came to a conclusion, that is, throwing knives seems to only increase the proficiency of the three-knife style at most, other than that, no matter how much you throw, it is useless.

"Um"

Looking at the long knives scattered on the ground again, after thinking about it, he just picked up two of them.

After all, not everyone has such good teeth like Sauron.

[You threw two knives at the same time, the basics of swordsmanship +1, the skill of two-knife skills +1]

A week later.

"After patrolling the town for more than a month, now is the time to take you out to sea and increase your knowledge."

In the training ground, Mengka was carrying a big axe, looking at the recruits lined up in front of him, his eyes suddenly fell on Leo.

"Why do you have two knives on your waist?"

"Report sir, I've been practicing the dual-knife technique recently!"

"Two swords?"

Mengka was stunned for a moment, and then his face became very serious and he criticized: "I haven't used one knife well, so I thought about using two knives? What's more, it doesn't mean that the more knives, the more powerful you are. It will delay your own cultivation progress."

"I understand, sir!"

Leo made a standard military salute, "But I also have my own plans. Regarding personal cultivation, I remember that you have no right to interfere with your subordinates, right? I hope the chief will not cross the line."

After the words fell, all the recruits around looked at him with surprised eyes.

This guy, how dare he talk back to Mr. Mengka Cao like this?

"Leo?"

Da Siqi, who was standing next to Leo, also reached out and pulled Leo's pants lightly.

But who knows, after hearing this, Mengka did not show any displeasure, but patted him on the shoulder: "Very well, I appreciate your courage and attitude, unlike other recruits, Same, I am very optimistic about your future development."

Leo:? ? ?
It's not that why do you take a fancy to me?
Could it be that I contradicted you and made you feel that my personality is very different?
Shouldn't you have scolded me, or just hacked me with the ax in your hand, revealing your true nature?

Seeing the hearty smile on Monka's face again, Leo couldn't help feeling a little doubtful again.

He originally said those words on purpose to provoke Mengka, but the attitude shown by Mengka now made him feel even more strange.

Could it be that, eight years before Luffy came to Shields Town, this Monka's character was not as bad as he showed later?
Leo, who was not so clear about the details of One Piece, temporarily kept his doubts.

Soon, the team set off by boat under the leadership of Monka.

A total of 50 navies were assigned to this patrol, including 1 chief cao, 1 sergeant, 4 corporal commanders, 40 navies from the first to third ranks, plus 4 chefs.

Among them, every 10 soldiers were divided into a team, which was managed by 4 corps leaders.

Similarly, the warship they were on was only a small ship, which could only carry about 100 people at most, the upper limit of a medium-sized ship was 300 people, and the large-scale warship was even more exaggerated, capable of carrying 800-1000 people.

Of course, it would be nice for a naval branch in a place like Shields Town in the East China Sea to have a medium-sized ship. Even Monka had never seen a large ship that could carry 1000 people.

"Report to Mr. Cao, the food has been counted, enough for us to support us at sea for about 18 to 20 days."

At the same time, the sergeant on the ship came over to report to Monka.

The navy usually travels to patrol the sea for a period of about a week, and for the sake of insurance, food reserves are also stored for more than half a month.

Therefore, if there is no accident, as long as there is no big eater like Luffy or Ace, it can basically be managed.

Standing on the deck of the warship, Leo looked at the sea scenery while checking the artillery on the ship.

"The sea is vast, without even half a point of reference, so you really won't get lost?" He murmured softly.

"That's why there are so many excellent navigators in the navy."

It looked like he was in his early 30s, with dead fish eyes, and a square face with an extremely gloomy expression suddenly appeared beside him, which shocked Leo who was distracted just now.

"Ah, sorry, did I scare you? My name is Lipa, the sergeant of the 153rd branch of the Navy."

The young man tried to grin and smiled, "Other people say that my normal expression is terrible, and I have been trying to change it recently."

"Please don't, Master Sergeant Cao, your smile is even scarier than before."

Lipa: "."

This recruit...can he speak?
"Looking at the weather, it seems that it's going to rain soon."

As if to change the subject, Lipa suddenly raised her head, glanced at the gradually darkening sky and said.

"Yes, yes, then we can go back to the cabin and lie down to rest, right?" Hearing this, Leo asked with a pleasant expression.

Lipa: "."

"It's not impossible, but even if it's raining, people need to be on the deck to watch around."

"Then, this arduous task will be handed over to Da Siqi and the others for the time being!"

After all, Leo yawned pretendingly, and ignored the question marks thrown by Da Siqi and others, and walked back to the cabin with a stretched waist.

Throwing the knife to the ground, he lay down on the bed in a font shape and read the newspaper.

[In laziness, physical fitness +1, endurance +1]

I don't know how long it took.

"A pirate ship is found ahead!"

"The whole army gathers!"

Monka's loud shouts came from above, and Leo, who was smoking his cigarette beautifully, immediately turned over and ran to the deck quickly.

On the sea not far in front of the warship, there was indeed a ship with a pirate flag sailing sideways.

The hull looked about the same size as their warship, and not far from the pirate ship, a passenger ship was crazily pulling away from the pirate ship.

Look at the sides of the passenger ship, more than a dozen sailors are desperately sliding the oars, obviously frightened by the sudden appearance of the pirate ship.

"Do you want to fire, Captain Moncao?"

A soldier asked.

"No, the two ships are too close to each other. If you fire rashly, civilians are likely to be injured. Quickly, increase the propulsion horsepower, move the military ship closer, and directly engage in a boarding battle with the other party!"

"Yes, Master Cao!"

After saying that, the speed of the entire small warship suddenly soared, just like the speedboat on Earth in Leo's previous life, sprinting towards the pirate ship.
