Chapter 167: The Birth of the King of the Navy
A huge warship is sailing in the East China Sea. On the deck, the navy is pushing aside. It's not that the deck is too small, but... someone is cleaning the deck. Logically speaking, cleaning the deck should be a collective task, but now...
Major Reed Nurkic, the adjutant of the Zhanye detachment, and Leon, the captain of the cooking team, worked hard to clean the deck, but there was no look of complaint on their faces, more of regret.
Of course, the way Leon looked at Nurkic from time to time was still full of murderous intent.
Skyler was sitting on a reclining chair, tempering his saber with armament and domineering, while supervising the two men to clean the deck. Originally, he planned to only let them clean the office.
But the deck was dirty because of yesterday's fishing for sea kings, so I just let the two of them show off.
Watching his subordinates work was more comfortable than his own. Skyler tempered his saber, and drank a drink from time to time, with the sea breeze blowing. Perhaps, this was how he felt without pressure.
"Report! A pirate ship has been spotted ahead!"
Just when Skyler was enjoying the sea breeze and oppression (crossed out), and cultivating his men's sense of accomplishment, the lookout suddenly reported, she raised her eyebrows, and Nurkic also stopped at this moment.
Shouted to the lookout: "How far is it? Target size?"
"Report, distance is three nautical miles, target size... less than twenty people!"
"Three nautical miles? Why did you find out now?"
Nurkic was a little dissatisfied, but he handed the mop to Leon. Leon was also a carefree man. After all, he came out of Garp's warship and did not refuse.
Holding two mops and scrubbing hard on the deck, the lookout heard Nurkic's voice of dissatisfaction and explained: "Report, the other side's ship is too small. It's only now that the sails are raised that I can see clearly."
Nurkic looked dissatisfied, but his eyes subconsciously glanced at Leon, who was working hard, and Skyler, who did not express his opinion on this, and then said from the lookout:
"Check the reward order, the helmsman presses forward!"
After Nurkic finished speaking, he put his hands on his hips and looked commanding. Skyler shook his head and smiled, but did not take it seriously. After all, the work is coming to an end now, so just be lazy for a while.
The movement of tempering the sword in her hand also stopped, the armed domineering energy returned to her body, and she drank another drink to replenish her water and physical strength.
Standing up, for some reason, Skyler felt that this scene had a strong sense of déjà vu.
This sense of déjà vu surrounded Skyler, but she did not stop her. After all, in the East China Sea, could she encounter any big pirates?
"Report, the opponent's pirate ship and the pirate group's logo are not included in the reward order information."
Soon, a report came from the lookout. Nurkic looked at Skyler, saluted and said: "Sir, please give instructions!"
I don’t know why, but the feeling of déjà vu became stronger and stronger, but Skyler still drew his sword and pointed in the direction indicated by the lookout just now, and shouted: "Ha! Who do you think I am? Pull the boat over!"
Following Skye's order, the warship, which had been moving forward smoothly because there was no lack of time, roared again, and the ship quickly moved in the direction pointed by the lookout.
The warship was traveling very fast, and while Skyler was still thinking about what the déjà vu was, the sound of Nurkic’s order to prepare for boarding rang out, awakening Skyler. Only then did she realize that the warship had already arrived at the small sea ship.
Beside the pirate ship.
From a commanding position, even if it was one-on-one, the huge hull of Skyler's warship still had the feeling of surrounding the pirate ship that had not completely left the shore.
The sense of déjà vu that had been lingering in Skyler's mind and bothering her was finally understood.
There really are such coincidences in the world. Looking down, there is a small pirate ship with more than a dozen people standing there. It is obviously "surrounded" by the navy, but the hungover red-haired captain is still carrying a hangover.
Crew party.
Among the crew members, the one who smiled happily was a man with thick lips, a flintlock gun, and a sweat towel with his name on his head. The people around him seemed to be happy for him too.
"Good afternoon, Shanks, have you just woken up?"
Standing on the fence, Skyler greeted the red-haired and straw hat-wearing captain below. Unlike two years ago, Skyler did not feel any panic or fear in his heart at this time.
Hearing this, Shanks turned around with a bright smile and said, "How about you...ah!"
Only then did Shanks realize that he was surrounded by such a large warship. No wonder it felt dark just now.
His strange scream also woke up the only sleeping crew member on the ship who was not hungover. Beckman, who was holding his rifle, frowned before he even opened his eyes.
Yesterday, he took care of the whole crew of the ship and the unreliable captain all night. He thought he could finally get some sleep after going to sea. Moreover, his eyes didn't have the stinging feeling from the sun just now, and he just found a way to sleep.
state.
But...
"It's a very bad thing to disturb other people's sleep!!!"
Beckman opened his eyes directly, looking at the source of the sound with calm and dangerous eyes. He was originally holding the rifle, but now he also raised it, and his finger was on the trigger.
"Hey~"
Beckman felt that his hands were empty. At this time, because he had just woken up, his slightly blurred vision finally returned to normal. He watched his rifle fly high.
And then... fell into the hands of a female marine wearing a cloak of justice. Why did this scene... give me a damn sense of déjà vu?
"Ben Beckman, right? Didn't I say that the next time you draw a gun, be prepared to risk your life?"
As Skyler spoke, the crew members on the small pirate ship also fell silent, except Jesus Bu, who was still smiling in confusion.
Except for Jesus Bu, everyone else's eyes were on Skyler, a fat man holding a big bone in one hand and holding his other hand behind his back. Although he was smiling at this time, he gave people a dangerous feeling.
Shanks raised his hand to signal his crew not to move, looked at Skyler on the huge warship, and said with a smile: "Yes, long time no see, you have become a general.
Speaking of which, can you give me a favor and return the weapons of my crew? If the weapons are lost, we will all be very troubled."
Skyler didn't hesitate and just threw the rifle down, falling firmly into Beckman's hand. Beckman also stood up and stood silently beside Shanks.
Skyler looked at Shanks and asked in a normal way: "What about you? Have you done anything big recently? If there is no reward order, it will be difficult for me to do it. After all, civilian ships are forced to stop without reason. As long as they are notified and criticized,
.”
"Big deal? Hehehe~"
Jesus laughed suddenly, Shanks frowned, but Skyler had already asked: "Laughing so loudly? Are you happy?"
"Yes! Yes~burp~ah hahaha~"
Jesus Bu was still smiling, and Skyler asked without any scruples: "Did your wife give birth to your child?"
"Click~"
"Click~"
"Click~"
In an instant, all the men with guns on the red-haired ship drew their guns and pointed them directly at Skyler. The musketeers on the warship deck were also aiming at the people on the red-haired ship. The scale was very different.
Just when the atmosphere was extremely tense, Jesus Bu said: "Yes! I'm a father~ I just gave birth to... um~"
Halfway through Jesus' words, his head was clamped by the big fat man Laqilu under his arm. He couldn't speak anymore. Skyler nodded thoughtfully and said, "It's just the full moon?"
"Major General Schuyler! How about just forgetting about this?"
Shanks ignored the atmosphere of confrontation between the two armies, took off his straw hat, held it in his right hand, put it against his chest, and said to Skyler.
"What? Do you want me to give you face twice at once?"
Sensing the power that was about to burst out from Shanks's thin body, Skyler also frowned and gathered a sharp sword power.
Chapter completed!
