Meiman's Endless Skills

Chapter 16 The Flapping Butterfly Wings
The arrival of the red-haired pirates broke the original peace of the windmill village.However, after a period of contact with the villagers, they gradually realized that this was indeed a different group of 'pirates', and they were relieved, and the village returned to its former state.

Hongfa and the others did not stay in Windmill Village all the time, but used this place as their base and went out from time to time. No one knew what they were doing, so it seemed that they were not going out to plunder.

In the blink of an eye, a month has passed.

Facing the rising sun, Luffy, who rarely got up early, finished training with King Kong and walked back to the beach in the village.

Luffy looked towards the sea from time to time, as if he was looking for something, but the endless sea was as clean as a mirror, except for some unknown seabirds, he couldn't even see a ship.

After a while, Luffy withdrew his gaze in disappointment.

"Uncle King Kong, when will Shanks come back?"

King Kong felt a little helpless when he heard that, this is not the first time he saw Luffy like this, ever since he got acquainted with the red-haired pirates, whenever they go out, Luffy will come to the beach from time to time to look forward to them return.

"It should be soon. The previous few times they went out for about five days and came back. If it is the same this time, you will be able to see them in the evening at the latest."

Emotions other than happiness seem to be inherently difficult to stay on Luffy for too long. Hearing this, Luffy immediately became happy: "Is that so? That's great!"

This time, the joy didn't last too long on his face, and then Luffy said angrily: "Shanks and the others are too much, every time they call me a child and don't let me go out together, I know They must be out looking for treasure!"

In fact, you're a brat right now.

But King Kong didn't say this, but asked tentatively: "Luffy, why do you want to go to sea with Shanks? Do you want to become a pirate like them?"

I remember that in the comics, Luffy wanted to become a pirate under the influence of the red-haired pirates in the year after they came to Windmill Village.

But now that a month has passed, King Kong discovered that Luffy didn't seem to want to become a pirate.

This can't help but make him a little worried, is it because of his arrival that he flapped the wings of the little butterfly and deflected Luffy's original life trajectory.

To be honest, when he first came to this world and met and became friends with Luffy, King Kong had the idea of ​​changing Luffy's fate and preventing him from becoming a pirate again.

He didn't know if he was doing the right thing.

Will Luffy, who does not become a pirate and pursues the dream of the One Piece king, still find his own life by then?

After some careful consideration, he finally decided not to take the initiative to intervene, but to let nature take its course and let time make choices.

He believes that as long as there is enough time, he will be strong enough, at least it should not be a problem to prevent some tragedies that happen to Luffy in the future.

"Pirates?"

Regarding King Kong's question, Lu Fei was stunned for a while, and he didn't seem to have considered this question before.

After being silent for a while, Lu Fei asked with doubts in his eyes: "Uncle King Kong, what is a pirate?"

No wonder he asks this question, King Kong knows that at Luffy's current age, after seeing vicious real pirates at the same time, and pirates like red hair and others who pretend to be adventurers under the banner of pirates, more or less Doubts will arise.

Regarding his question, King Kong thought about it carefully, and gave an answer in his mind:
"In the eyes of most people, pirates are a group of bad guys. They roam the sea recklessly, doing all kinds of bad things."

"In my opinion, the vast majority of pirates are right, but there are also some pirates who are purely for the pursuit of freedom and adventure, like Shanks and the others, because they are also unfettered, so they are classified into the sea. In the camp of thieves."

Having said that, King Kong stopped and didn't explain some of the complex nature in more depth, even if it was said that Luffy is hard to understand now.

"In short, a simple truth, I hope you can remember, Luffy, there may be bad people hidden among good people, and there are some good people among pirates. Whether a person is good or bad needs to be contacted in person to give an accurate conclusion. judgment."

Luffy scratched his head when he heard it: "It's so complicated!"

King Kong smiled: "You will understand when you grow up."

Luffy: "No matter what, I still want to go to sea like Shanks and the others, to take risks and find many treasures."

Remembering that Luffy is not a money fan like Nami, King Kong was a little puzzled: "Hey! Luffy, why do you want so many treasures?"

"With the treasure, I can buy inexhaustible ingredients and make all kinds of barbecue. I want to be a man who can reach the highest state of barbecue like Uncle King Kong!"

As Luffy said that, he immediately looked greedy.

All right!This guy is actually a foodie.

King Kong knew that he had asked a stupid question, and he had no doubt that titles like 'Food King' were far more suitable for Luffy than 'One Piece'.

Until he returned to the village, Luffy still didn't give an accurate answer to whether he wanted to become a pirate.

But King Kong can see that according to the development of this situation, Luffy's life trajectory may deviate from the original one, but in the end most of them will go the way of pirates.

After returning to the bar to wash up, and then having a big meal to supplement the consumption of the previous exercise, King Kong felt that he had improved again.

After this month of hard work, his agility and strength attributes have increased by 0.3 and 0.2 respectively, and he has begun to steadily move towards 2 points.

but.

Now he began to think about another problem. He now has all the power, but he has no way to use it to transform it into combat power.

He knew that without any combat skills, it would be difficult for him to display much of his own strength.

Just as he was thinking about this question, the time soon came to the afternoon again.

Just as he guessed, before the evening came, the members of the red-haired pirates returned again. He was just finishing creating a storyline in the bar, and when he started to maintain the guitar, he heard Luffy's cheerful voice outside.

"Welcome back!"

King Kong also came out to greet them and had a dinner together.

During the period, Luffy was a little disappointed to find King Kong, but it was Shanks and the others who told him that they didn't find any treasure this time, which frustrated his expectations, who had always wanted to see the legendary pirate treasure.

In addition, King Kong clearly felt that everyone in the red-haired pirates was in a bad mood when they returned this time, and many of them, including Jesus Bu, were very drunk.

After being drunk, Jesus Bu, who was always an optimist, cried like a child.
