Pirate Journalist

Chapter 42 Departure: South China Sea

The days in the capital of seven waters are leisurely and comfortable.

In the blink of an eye, half a year has passed.

Sea train construction is in full swing at Dock No. [-].

Morrie also became the mayor of the capital of seven waters as he wished.

Under his guidance, citizens with a common goal make the whole city look vibrant.

For this city that is destined to bloom in the future, Murphy has not participated much.

Only occasionally when there are irresistible pirates intruding, he will step in.

But most of the time, let Mori and the others solve it by themselves.

Since the advent of the era of great pirates, various things have happened on the sea.

But it's all small troubles, but there are no real big things.

The only thing that can be said to have changed the world structure is the recent World Conference, which opened just after the advent of the Great Pirate Era.

In order to cope with the increasingly bad pirate situation and the gradually forming several major forces in the new world, the meeting passed the proposal of "Seven Martial Seas Under the King" which was extremely criticized by later generations.

It's just that the current Qiwuhai is just an empty shell, and I don't know when it will be filled.

None of these things affected Murphy, he was just quietly writing novels and exercising.

The further you go, the higher the value of each attribute, and it is urgent to become stronger. If you have been relying on the system, it is not a solution.

In order to get stronger faster, he simply added exercise to his daily routine.

However, the main reason for not going to sea is because there are no events that can arouse his interest for the time being.

In the first half of the great voyage, because people went on to become pirates, fighting gradually increased, but these are not worth reporting at all.

As for the new world, Whitebeard, Golden Lion, Kaido, Big Mom, etc. are engaged in a long-term tug-of-war for the territory, just like a scene of the Rocks Pirates fighting.

It is too dangerous for Murphy to participate now, and there is nothing particularly noteworthy.

I was planning to interview Tom or report about Tom's probation incident.

After Murphy considered it carefully, he dismissed the idea.

As Tom is a key figure in the capital of seven waters, it would be of no benefit to Murphy if he made a scene known all over the world and aroused the prying eyes of some people.

Moreover, he now has a new goal.

A piece of audio from the surveillance phone bug caught his attention.

"Have you heard that the blood of the One Piece King appeared in the South China Sea?"

"Don't talk nonsense, it's just suspicion."

"But the scope has narrowed down to Batherilla."

"That can only be confirmed after the investigation is completed, well, don't discuss this topic!"

This is a conversation between two officers on a certain warship.

In fact, there are very few surveillance phone bugs exposed outside. Since the last time Roger surrendered to the news, the entire headquarters has been checked.

None of the phone bugs that had worked so hard to infiltrate were left.

Only a few warships still have phone monitoring bugs, and they have not been affected.

The news this time also came from one of them.

Is it Baltimore Island in the South China Sea?

Murphy muttered silently.

This is something to report.

Not only the continuation of the blood of One Piece, but also the crimes of the navy.

……

seaside.

As usual, Murphy was wearing a white sweater, a pair of glasses, Yingxiu on his waist, and a recording pointer on his wrist.

He was going to sea, and Morrie and Tom were seeing him off.

At least Murphy thinks so.

But Morrie and Tom didn't seem to think so, more like they came to stop Murphy.

"Brother Murphy, do you have to leave today?" Morrie asked nervously.

"Haha, I can't be idle, and I have some things to do, of course, the sooner the better!" Murphy smiled.

"But! Don't worry about this day! Look at the sea!!"

Mori pointed to the rough sea, gestured with dancing, and said anxiously: "This year's god of water——Akula Ragna has arrived ahead of schedule. That is the annual tsunami! I experienced it last year. Oh, it's so scary!!"

Morrie didn't stop, pointed at Murphy's boat, and said exaggeratedly, "That's fine, but you're going to take this kind of thing!? Is this a boat?"

Where Morrie gestured, a small boat was parked on the shore.

The space of the whole boat is only enough to seat two or three people. It looks quite exquisite, but such a small boat, and it has no oars or sails, how can it pass through the gods of water, and how can it gallop on the sea?

This kind of thing that can be carried with one hand is not so much a boat as a place to stay.

"Murphy, what Morrie said is right! I'll make it myself, and I can make it for you in a few days!" Tom was equally surprised.

He is a murloc, with excellent water skills, even a tsunami is not afraid of him.

But Murphy is a landlubber. If this kind of wave is photographed, it will sink.

"Thank you for your kindness, but this is enough. I can control it with my ability. Even a tsunami can be easily crossed, so don't worry. If the boat is too big, it will be more difficult to continue to control it." Murphy waved his hand , signaling the two to rest assured.

He is going to the South China Sea this trip, and if he starts from the paradise, he can reach it directly through the windless belt.

The dead zone is a big problem for others, but he just needs to fly over it.

Usually control the boat to drive on the sea surface, when encountering insurmountable obstacles such as tsunami, sea area, then control the boat to fly and cross directly.

With a small boat, it would be easy for him to fly it, but if it was a big boat, it would take too much energy.

"Forget it, forget it, as long as you are sure, although you are very young, we are all very assured of you! Hahahahaha." Tom laughed a few times and had to give up.

Seeing that Murphy has been insisting, Morrie also extinguished the desire to continue to dissuade.

Murphy nodded: "Don't worry, you all know my strength very well during this period of time. There is nothing I can do about this storm. What you should worry about is yourselves. Although you have improved a lot, you can only deal with it a little bit." These petty pirates, if the big pirates really come, you will be unable to resist with your strength."

In the past six months, although a group of people including Mo Li have strengthened their practice, it is obviously not enough.

Among them, Morrie is the mayor, and he doesn't have enough time in normal times, so he can barely deal with some small pirates.

And Tom has a certain strength, but it can't be said to be strong, let alone Tom is just a craftsman.

Murphy went to the South China Sea this time, and didn't plan to come back in a short time.

The capital of seven waters lacks a strong character to sit in.

In the turbulent new era, it's fine if the city is ruined, but if it keeps on growing, it will be targeted sooner or later.

Murphy rubbed his chin and thought for a while.

This issue cannot be resolved at this time.

I can only think of a way in the future journey.

Morrie pondered for a while, then said: "That's true, we will try to avoid it as much as possible. At present, there is nothing in the capital of seven waters that others can look at."

Murphy nodded, said nothing more, jumped into the boat lightly, and was about to leave.

When parting, Tom sighed: "Murphy, thank you and Morrie for what you and Morrie have done for the capital of seven waters and Tom's studio. You didn't say it, but it doesn't mean we don't know."

There is no limit to the adventure in the sea. I don’t know when we will wait for the next meeting. When we parted, Tom still expressed his gratitude.

"You're welcome, the basis of everything now is because everyone believes that you can build the sea train. If you fail, the capital of the seven waters will still decline, so master Tom, you can work hard!"

After Murphy finished speaking, he turned his back to the two and waved his hands: "Stop talking, or it will be endless, I wish you good luck!"

"Smooth sailing, Brother Murphy!"

The boat swayed in the water, riding the wind and waves, soaring into the sky, crossing the tsunami and sailing towards the distance.
