Arkham in the pirate world

The scimitar in Liszt's eyes was getting closer and bigger.

"You are not afraid of death?"

One hand held the scimitar, and the tip of the knife was pressed between his eyebrows. If it hadn't been for the appearance of that hand, it would have stabbed into Liszt's head smoothly.

Liszt glanced at Old John holding the knife and said, "Afraid!"

Old John and Liszt looked at each other. After a while, Old John's anger dissipated and he sat next to Liszt.

"Want to hear my story?"

"Is there any wine?"

Liszt endured the pain all over his body, took the wine bottle with his left hand, and took a sip of rum.

"I was a Marine!" said John Sr.

"I was still young at that time, just like you, training hard and eager to stand out. In five years, I became a lieutenant commander and had my own warship. If there were no accidents, maybe I would be a lieutenant general now. Unfortunately, I am the first The first time I went to sea, I met the young great pirate Moonlight Moria. My warship sank and all my soldiers died. I still remember their names."

Old John took a sip of wine with trembling hands.

"I drifted to a deserted island with the wind and waves and survived. It was not until two years later that I was rescued by a passing merchant ship. When I returned to the Navy headquarters, everyone was surprised and surprised why I didn't die. I died, I was a hero, and they gave me a beautiful funeral. But I was still alive, and I was subjected to various scrutiny. Soon, I became a prisoner, charged with poor command, abandoning my subordinates, and escaping before the battle. Of course I was not willing to accept it. , I escaped, killed those who were chasing me, and got on the bounty list, but I didn’t care. I was filled with hatred, and it was Moria who caused all this. I wanted revenge, and I formed my own pirates Regiment, finally, I took my men and found Moria and had a naval battle!"

"The results of it?"

"I lost! Moria threatened me with my partners and forced me to swear that I would never set foot on the Grand Route again in my life."

Old John looked miserable.

Liszt handed him the wine, and Old John drank hard, calmed down, looked at the sky, and sighed.

"Two failures destroyed my will. I was exiled to the East China Sea, drinking all day long and feeling confused."

"You and the captain..."

"Weigl is the son of my deputy and has always wanted revenge. Last year, he came to me. I owe his father my life."

"Captain wants to go to the Grand Line?"

"His father died in that naval battle, and he wants to seek revenge from Moria."

"Is Moria strong?"

"Strong, much stronger than me. He is a famous pirate in the new world and a devil fruit user."

Liszt asked: "Can the captain defeat Moria?"

Old John shook his head and said: "Weigl is too confident. Although he is already one of the top pirates in the East China Sea, when it comes to the Grand Line, there are not only a thousand but also eight hundred pirates like him. I have advised him, but He didn’t listen and insisted on going to the Grand Line.”

Liszt suddenly realized that Old John's sudden anger was actually because he was worried about Weigel. He just happened to hit Old John's breaking point. He was angry with the boss over losing money. When he saw you smiling, he immediately roared at you. Just the same, it's a completely unreasonable disaster.

After the outburst, Old John regretted that he should not have vented his anger on Liszt, which led to the above conversation.

Liszt had a clear idea in his heart, but he didn't point it out. He sighed: "The Great Sea Route, I want to see it too."

"You are too weak!" Old John shook his head.

"I'm still young, you can help me!"

"Why?"

Liszt looked at his injuries.

Old John's face turned dark and he was silent for a moment. Out of guilt, he said, "It will be very painful!"

"No pain No gain!"

Old John hesitated slightly and asked, "Want to try the navy's elite training?"

Half a year later, in the autumn of 1511 in the Haiyuan calendar, a news spread on the Blood Ax.

"Have you heard? Red-footed Zepp defeated the navy warship and is already a big pirate with a bounty of 2000 million."

"Who?"

"That's the cook who fights with his feet, the captain of the Chef Pirates."
