Luffy did not take the Calm Belt, but chose to enter the East China Sea through the Upside-Down Mountain, just to meet a few waves of pirates on the way.

But by the time the warships entered the East China Sea, they hadn't seen any pirates, not even a few merchant ships.

"Damn, if I had known why I wasted this time, I could have just passed through the Calm Belt.

What a damn bad luck, wasting my supplies."

Looking at Luffy cursing, Adjutant Ain stepped forward and asked in confusion:

"What should we do now, where should we go?"

Glancing at his new lieutenant, Luffy said with certainty:

"Go to Rogge Town. I heard that one of our brothers was recently assigned there.

Let's go visit him and recover the lost supplies."...

""A-choo! A-choo!"

In the East China Sea, in the naval base of Rogge Town, the new base commander Smoker sneezed twice in a row, startling the marines who came to report.

"Captain, are you all right?"

Rubbing his nose strangely, Smoker waved his hand to let him continue.

Glancing at the new commander with concern, the Marine began to report.

"Colonel Smoker, a warship claiming to be from the headquarters has just docked outside the port.

Their commander said that they hope to get our help and temporarily replenish supplies and rest in Rogue Town for a while."

"Headquarters? Is there another unlucky guy who was thrown into the East China Sea like me?"

Smoker laughed at himself and didn't take it seriously. He stood up and signaled the marines to lead the way.

"Come on, show me around, I hope it’s someone I know."

Ten minutes later,

"Hey, Brother Smoker, I didn't expect you to be in the East China Sea. It's been a long time since we last met."

Looking at the little devil waving at him with a bright smile,

Smoker only recalled for 0.01 seconds before recognizing this annoying face.

‘Damn, it couldn't be more familiar.

Without any hesitation, he turned around and instructed the marines who followed him:

"Let them fend for themselves, don't give them any supplies"

"Hey, don't do that!"

Luffy hurried over to stop him, forcibly put his arm around his shoulders, and walked back while punching him lightly.

"Really, don't be so stingy.

Come, my ship is full of your juniors and seniors, I'll introduce you to them."

As he said that, he winked at the bewildered marine on the side and asked him to leave first.

Smoker tried to break free with a dark face, but Luffy was not a strong body, but he was very strong. No matter how hard he tried, he just wouldn't let go.

Helplessly, Smoker had to be dragged forward unwillingly.

However, Luffy's words aroused his interest.

"Are you an intern from the Elite Camp?"

I asked curiously, and then he said with disdain:

"Humph, are the newbies so weak nowadays? They have to go to Donghai for internship."

"Haha, we are not here for internship, we have graduated and are now members of the Navy Guerrilla Force"

‘Navy what? '

Before the bewildered Smoker could continue to ask, Luffy beside him waved his hand and called Ein and his group over.

Looking at the more than 40 people who gathered around him, Smoker raised his eyebrows and said in surprise:

"What the hell?! There are only so many people in the elite camp.

Teacher Zefa actually gave all the students to a little brat like you?!"

"Haha, don't say it so harshly, this is a special permission from Marshal Sengoku."

Luffy smiled and changed the subject, and then introduced each of his classmates to Smoker.

Although Smoker was very reluctant, he still smiled and greeted everyone.

After everyone left, only Luffy, Cook, Binz, Gavin and Ian were left.

Smoker put on a sour face again and said unhappily:

"So what? What kind of guerrilla force is this? How long do you want to stay here? Let me tell you first, I just took office and supplies are scarce. I can only provide you with some basic supplies."

"Hehe, that's enough. Supplies are not the main thing. I mainly want to ask you about the intelligence of the East China Sea.

As for the guerrillas, this is a brand new force proposed by Zefa and approved by Marshal Sengoku.

Our duties include cleaning up pirates and reviewing the navy.

For example, if you, Brother Smoker, embezzle, accept bribes, and do something that violates the navy regulations, then I have the power to arrest you and send you to the Judicial Island for trial."

"Idiot, I won't do such a stupid thing."

Smoker glanced at him coldly, then lit a cigar and exhaled:

"Marshal Sengoku is really old and confused. He let a little brat like you take up such an important position.

But the Navy does need to start an internal review.

My predecessor as base commander was an irresponsible guy.

During his tenure, he made Rogue Town a mess. Pirates and gangsters were rampant in the town, but the Navy did nothing about it."

As he spoke, he shook his head and snorted in disdain.

Cook asked curiously,"Where is he now?"

"Humph, I reported the news here to the headquarters.

That idiot should be under investigation in Judicial Island now.

If anything is wrong, he will have to spend the rest of his life in Impel Down."

Hiss~

What a ruthless person, he just arrived in Rogue Town and sent his predecessor to jail.

It's just like what Luffy said, this guy hates evil as much as he hates evil

"All right, take the supplies and information and get out of here.

I still have a bunch of pirates to catch, so I don't have time to play house with you."

After saying this, Smoker turned around and was about to leave, but after taking two steps he stopped again, turned his head and frowned:

"I suggest you go to the 16th branch's jurisdiction. There is a group of fishmen pirates from the Grand Line entrenched there.

For many years, some branches have been trying to wipe them out, but in the end they have returned in vain and even suffered heavy losses.

I always feel that the situation here is very complicated and there may be something strange."

‘16th Branch, Rat and Arlong?

Luffy frowned. His goal this time was related to this rat shit, so of course he would go and take a look.

He nodded, took note of Smoker's reminder, and decided to go directly to the 16th Branch after leaving Rogue Town.

"Got it. I won't stay too long. I will also investigate Branch 16."

"I hope so."

Smoker nodded and left.

Looking at his back, Cook poked Luffy and said puzzledly:

"This senior seems to hate you. What happened between you two?"

"It's nothing, I was just young and ignorant, and I acted like a naughty kid a few times.

Let's go, let's go to town and have a good walk."
