Pirate: Role-Playing System

Chapter 26: Zephyr's Cunning Plan (First Update, Seeking Collection of Fresh Flower Votes)

Zephyr had confidence in his ability to judge people!

This guy named Saitama must be a person full of justice.

Using heinous criminals to attract him to join the Marines is the best choice!

Look, even though he had a blank expression since I entered, his expression has changed somewhat...

Time to seize the opportunity!

Zephyr thought to himself, without hesitation he said, "Young man, you should know that the Marine's intelligence system is supported by the World Government. If you join the Marines, you will have accurate information and be able to combat more criminals!"

"Look at those pirates in the trash mountain, they are now hiding in the shadows. It will be difficult for you to catch them in a short time."

"But with good intelligence, it will be different..."

"For example, Uchiha Madara. Despite his insane attack on Mariejois, the Marines have already captured some of his locations. If you help, we can definitely catch this heinous criminal!"

Zhao Xu: "..."

His clone has been discovered.

But this is not surprising. Before he split into a clone, he had already arranged for him to leak his whereabouts at the right opportunity, so that the Marines could lift the blockade on Sabaody Archipelago.

However...

How did Zephyr come up with this plan to bring me, the real me, to capture my clone?

"Cough, maybe you're right, but I don't want to take orders from others," Saitama calmly said. "After becoming a Marine, you have to obey the orders of your superiors, right? I am a hero driven by interest, and I can't accept the hierarchical relationship you have."

"It's okay!" Zephyr patted his chest and said, "I can arrange for you to be under my command. I won't give you any orders on a daily basis. You can make your own judgments based on the intelligence we provide."

"The salary in the Marines is also good, and there are bonuses for defeating pirates. You won't have to live in a straw hut anymore!"

Upon hearing these words, Saitama's eyes lit up.

The next second, he appeared in front of Zephyr, earnestly shaking his hand. "I agree to join the Marines!"

Zephyr: "..."

There's something strange about this kid.

Oh well...

"Old man, this kid is pretty strong!" Garp squinted his eyes. He didn't notice his speed just now, and he suddenly appeared around him...

"Of course, why else would I come all the way here?" Zephyr laughed, not caring.

"Tch, I knew you didn't come all the way here just to catch up with me," Garp rolled his eyes.

Of course, he didn't ask Zephyr for anyone else.

Although Saitama performed well and had a strong sense of justice, the promises Zephyr made were not simple.

A Marine who doesn't follow orders but only listens to assignments...

You should know that the Marines, fundamentally, are the military force of the World Government.

What if he doesn't follow orders?

He can't provide that kind of treatment.

Even the high treatment Zephyr offered was abnormal.

After a moment of silence, Garp remembered Zephyr's words when he voluntarily stepped down from the position of Admiral and became a recruit training instructor.

—Garp, I want to train a hero.

"Is this the hero you have chosen?" Garp thought to himself.

...

After deciding to join the Marines, Zephyr quickly took Saitama onto his warship.

Of course, as a newly joined Marine, Zephyr only gave Saitama the rank of Captain.

Marine ranks are important, but not that important.

In the future world conscription, the relatively unknown and unremarkable Green Bull and Fujitora can instantly become Admirals.

Of course, that's because it is led by the World Government.

Having the freedom to act without having to obey orders comes at a high cost. Zephyr is not one of the Five Elders, so he doesn't have that kind of authority.

Giving him the rank of Captain is just right, neither too big nor too small. He can lead a ship on his own without causing any problems due to excessive power.

However, some people are worried.

"Zephyr, is it okay for you to do this?" a Lieutenant Commander couldn't help but ask, "We're not familiar with this guy named Saitama, right?"

"Yeah," Zephyr nodded.

"Then why are you giving him so much power?" the Lieutenant Commander frowned.

As soon as they join the Marines, they become Ensigns, and with the freedom to act... One wrong move and it could become a stain on Zephyr's reputation!

"That kid is not a bad person, don't worry," Zephyr smiled and said.

"How do you know?" the Lieutenant Commander couldn't help but ask, "It seems like this is the first time we've met him, right?"

"Doing good deeds may be the result of some ulterior motive," Zephyr smiled and said, "But having such strong power and building a house in the deep mountains... that's not something a bad person would do."

The Lieutenant Commander was skeptical, but he no longer denied it.

On the other hand, Zephyr smiled, remembering his conversation with Saitama earlier.

Garp's grandson is a big problem, Luffy and Red Hair have an unclear relationship, and the other two don't seem like obedient types, especially Ace...

Having come this far, he vaguely discovered something.

But he didn't consider the fact that Ace and the others haven't done anything wrong, and also Garp's face.

It was because of Garp's generosity that he cleanly gave up on Saitama.

But... Saitama has spent more time with Ace than he has!

Wouldn't he notice anything?

When Zephyr subtly asked Saitama on the warship, Saitama responded with a question.

"Ace, did he make a big mistake?"

"Um... no."

"Then that's it," Saitama looked at him with his silly face, "If he didn't make a mistake, why would you arrest him?"

"Of course, it seems like he will become a pirate in the future... but at that time, it's up to the me of that time to catch him."

With these words, Zephyr fell silent.

After a moment of silence, a figure approached from the side.

"Hmm? What's wrong, Ensign?" Zephyr looked at the bald man and couldn't help but smile.

"This Marine uniform always feels uncomfortable... Can I change back to my previous clothes?" Saitama adjusted the collar on his neck and asked.

"Whatever you want, I said you have the freedom to choose," Zephyr said.

"Oh, thank you, old man," Saitama smiled, "By the way, where are we going now?"

Upon hearing this, Zephyr's face showed a hint of seriousness.

"To the Grand Line. The Marines have a major operation, and I'm taking you to capture Uchiha Madara!"

Saitama: Σ(っД;)っ

This old man really went for this crazy move in the end...
