Pirates: The First Swordsman of the Rocks Era

Kaido stretched out his hand to push away the gravel, and stood up from the ground with a gloomy face. Lingling's words directly hit his inner self-esteem.

As a "man".

When it was mentioned that he was not as good as others at this time, a strong anger surged in his heart instantly.

"Wait, I will definitely surpass that guy!" Kaido gritted his teeth and said, not even willing to mention Ares' name.

Stepping out, he trampled the gravel on the ground into powder, put on his clothes and left the room immediately.

In the skeleton castle.

Captain John, carrying a wine bottle, walked into Lockes' room, looked at Lockes who was sitting on the sofa with a big horse and a golden sword, and said as he walked towards the sofa, "It was the boy Ares who made the noise."

He sat down on the sofa, held up the bottle and poured it into his mouth, tons and tons.

"Ha~"

Taking a sip of wine, Captain John had a happy expression on his face, and then said: "That fellow Skie taught Iris to drink, but he accidentally made Ares drunk."

"As a result, the boy Ares made no shots."

Immediately, the corner of his mouth raised, with a smile: "Hehe... Even Shiji's face was hammered out by Ares."

There was also a trace of surprise on Lockes' face, and he reached out to stroke the hair on the top of his head that was like bundles of seaweed, fluttering in the wind.

With a slight arc on the corner of his mouth, he said, "It's kind of interesting."

"That kid is mentally abnormal, don't you plan to show him?"

Captain John put the wine bottle on the table, made a bang, looked straight at Lockes opposite, and the corners of his mouth widened: "Why do you want to treat Ares, isn't he very good now?"

"A man with persistence and dreams, this sea cannot stop him!"

"That guy wants to make himself a famous knife, doesn't the captain want to see if this kid can succeed?"

Although he is a navigator and part-time doctor of the Rocks Pirates, he has no idea and idea of ​​​​planning to see a doctor for Ares.

Instead, he was thinking about how to make Ares go further on this "impossible road".

"Thief haha..."

Hearing John's words, Lockes couldn't help laughing: "That's right, I also want to see the guy who has the courage to challenge me, Lockes."

"How far can it grow in the future?"

He leaned back, leaning his hands on the back of the sofa, his face full of arrogance and self-confidence: "As long as I am on my Rocks' boat, I, Rocks, have the confidence to be the strongest!"

"Whether it's Newgate, Shiji or Lingling, my boat is enough to accommodate their dreams!"

"The final destination of the Rocks Pirates will be this—the world!!"

There are many pirates with ambitions and dreams on this ship, and Lockes knows this well, but he has absolute confidence and confidence in being able to control these guys.

Let them become their own powerful champions on the road of pursuing their dreams and ambitions!

Captain John took out a bottle of wine from his body, threw it directly at Lockes, and said, "That boy Ares is really a monster, and I don't know what method he used to make his body temperature rise. High, the combat power has been greatly improved!"

Then he told Lockes what happened before.

There was only a quarter of a bottle of wine left, Lockes put down the bottle, his domineering eyes rolled slightly in his sockets, and said, "Maybe it's some kind of special instinct."

"It will take some time for this guy to grow up!"

As he said that, his face became serious and serious: "Let's talk about the business, we have many enemies in this sea now."

"There are Wald Pirates, Roger Pirates, etc., and there are even very few powerful pirates, such as the lonely red Redfield."

"But our real enemy is the navy, the world government!"

There are many pirates, and everyone has their own ambitions and dreams.

Compared with pirates, Rocks cares more about the world government and its naval organizations that have stood in this world for more than 700 years.

That is the biggest obstacle for him to dominate the world.

John's face became solemn and serious, and after a moment of pondering, he said: "In the past two years, the Rocks Pirates must grow rapidly, and at the same time, they must look for powerful devil fruits."

"Two years later is the time for the world government to hold a world conference. At that time is the best time, otherwise if you miss it, you will have to wait another four years!"

The current year is 1480, and the next meeting is only 2 years away.

Lockes nodded, drank the rest of the wine in one gulp, a gleam flashed in his eyes, and his tone became a little more serious: "Then finish it within these two years!"

"We must also find a powerful devil fruit!"

Putting down the wine bottle, he looked at John and said, "John, you are my most trustworthy person, and you have also read the Devil Fruit Illustration."

"So for our respective dreams, we must find a powerful devil fruit!!"

"I'll leave this matter to you. Be careful, and don't be discovered by the navy."

John stood up from the sofa and said with a smile: "Leave this matter to me, I will definitely find a devil fruit that the captain is satisfied with!"

The eyes of the two met in the air, and they could see the ambition in each other's eyes at a glance!

The screen turns.

In the training room of Hive Island.

Pirates are a group of energetic guys, and some pirates choose to use wine and women to vent their excess energy.

And some pirates chose to exercise to vent.

Some of them exercise not because they don't want booze and women, but because they—have no money! !

this is the truth.

And their strength will also determine their status in the Rocks Pirates and the treasure they harvest.

The sound of "drink, drink, haha" kept ringing in the training room, but it was overshadowed by a loud "bang bang bang".

That's the sound Ares made during training!

The whistling sound of wind and thunder came from the iron rod, and finally fell heavily on Ares's muscular muscles.

Bang! ! !

The bronze-colored muscles trembled.

The golden lion looked at Ares who was training in a huge manner in front of him, and raised the corner of his mouth with great interest: "Jie ha ha ha..."

"Newgate, I have an idea. You said that if I teach Ares swordsmanship..."

"With this kid's perseverance and hard work, how far can he practice swordsmanship?"

Chapter 25 The Golden Lion: He was a man born for the sword

"Teach this kid swordsmanship?" A gleam flashed in Whitebeard's eyes, staring at Ares who was training like "self-mutilation".

He whispered to the golden lion: "I think this kid's strength is about to catch up with the elite lieutenant general of the navy headquarters. With this kid's physique and vitality, it is absolutely no problem to be able to hold on for at least half an hour in the hands of the elite lieutenant general of the navy headquarters." .”

"If Ares has learned swordsmanship, even that powerful brute force is not something ordinary people can bear."

"You can teach Ares swordsmanship!"

White Beard gave his evaluation. Ares' current advantages and disadvantages are very obvious. He is physically strong but his moves are too simple and primitive.

In front of a strong man who is proficient in armed domineering, his body is absolutely unable to withstand multiple attacks.

Rather than an armed domineering proficient, if you want to kill Ares, you may not even be able to break through the defense.

"Jie ha ha ha... Newgate, isn't he already very strong?" The golden lion looked up at Newgate who was taller than him, and reminded: "Don't forget that this kid Fourteen or fifteen, I don't see a future for this guy..."

"Because maybe Ares will create a miracle, and I, the Golden Lion, will create this legend with my own hands."

The corners of his mouth were raised high. The golden lion in his 30s was just the age of a man in his prime. He asked the white beard in a flamboyant manner, "Isn't this a very interesting and exciting thing?"

"If one day, Ares becomes the world's number one swordsman, and I, Golden Lion, will also be the master of the world's number one swordsman."

With the potential of Ares, coupled with his dedication and seriousness in training, such a thing is not impossible in his opinion.

The golden lion's heart was surging, and the dull thumping sound of Ares's beating on his body was like the sound of his heart beating, which made his blood excited.

The white beard on the side suddenly frowned, and said to the golden lion reluctantly: "You want to be that kid's teacher, and then take him into your team, right?!"

"That can't be done!"

"I also want to be Ares' teacher and teach him physical skills!"

A strong sense of vigilance rose in his heart. If the Golden Lion and Ares get mixed up, wouldn't Ares become the Golden Lion in the future?

Never allow such a thing to happen!

What I can't get, the Golden Lion guy can't even think of getting it!

"what?!"

Hearing what White Beard said, the Golden Lion looked dazed. After a moment, a raging flame burned in his eyes, staring at White Beard with anger.

Biting the cigar on his mouth tightly, he said word by word: "You want to snatch Ares from me?!"

"If I teach him swordsmanship, he won't learn physical skills!!"

"He is a man born for the sword!!"

White Beard also opened his eyes wide, not to be outdone at all, raised his head slightly and said with a haughty and fearless look: "What?! Do you have an opinion??"

"You can teach Ares swordsmanship, but can't I teach him physical skills?"

The upper bodies of the two are pulling towards each other like magnets, and the leaning bodies make them look at each other again!

The other person's face is close at hand.

And many pirates who were training around also looked over, they had seen this kind of thing countless times.

On the Rocks Pirates ship.

White Beard and Golden Lion have completely opposite philosophies and behavior styles, but they both have their own dreams and the same hobbies - wine and banquets!

Of course, this is also the hobby of 99.9% of pirates.

At this time, Wang Zhi came over and put one hand on the chest of the golden lion and the other on the chest of the white beard.

Pushing the two away, he gave a very reasonable and compromised suggestion: "Since you all want to teach Ares, I think it's better for each of you to teach for a day."

"This will save you from fighting!"

Although he considered himself a master of swordsmanship, he was still a little inferior in front of the Golden Lion.

Wang Zhi didn't want to fight for Ares either, he had no other ambitions or ideas.

As for the goals of Golden Lion and White Beard, one is probably to prepare for having a powerful companion in the future, and the other is probably to make Ares his family.

but...

None of this has anything to do with him.

White Beard and Golden Lion were silent.

Wang Zhi smiled: "Just do as I said, this will prevent you from fighting, and if the captain disagrees, you will have nothing to do."

Both Golden Lion and Whitebeard compromised, and even Whitebeard took the initiative to give in: "Aris is yours today, don't disturb me to teach Ares to practice tomorrow!"

After finishing speaking, without waiting for the golden lion to agree, he turned around and left.

It was tantamount to taking advantage of himself, and the Golden Lion lost half a day. This made White Beard feel a little proud, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

He left the training room in a happy mood.

The angry golden lion gritted his teeth and felt helpless, and snorted coldly: "Let's just take half a day, the days to come will be long!"

Then he looked up at Ares who was training alone in the distance, and there was no one around, and shouted: "Hey, Ares!"

"I'll take you to a place, follow me to practice swordsmanship!"

The pirates around cast envious eyes one after another. Being picked up and taught by the big boss is the dream of many pirates in the Rocks group.

Not everyone can hug the thick thighs of the golden lion.

Ordinary people don't pay attention to the golden lion at all.

No one dared to provoke this guy, because the Golden Lion Shiji was ruthless, but he could even kill his own subordinates and crew.

In addition to Lockes, the Rocks Pirates should not provoke the Golden Lion and Charlotte Lingling the most.

This is the privately recognized "rule" on board!
