The Furry King of Pirates

The first half of the Grand Line, the starting point, the Red Earth Continent.

Thousands of cliffs stretch across the sky, like giant red giants. In front of the Twin Gorges is the unpredictable sea, with frightening waves churning up all the time.

The bounty hunter Terry took one last look at the sky of the Grand Route and shook his head. This might be his last look.

He stretched out his hand and handed a pass to the guard.

"Name, Terry; a North Sea man, a bounty hunter on the Grand Line."

The guard glanced at the stubble-covered Terry with some surprise. Bounty hunters were not uncommon, but according to the records, this Terry had been to the New World.

The guards knew little about the new world, but they also knew that it was the most chaotic sea area in the world, full of monsters.

Terry saw the guard's hesitation, "Is there any problem? I bought the pass through regular channels, not stolen. My face is also reported to the Navy. You can find out after checking."

Terry was bleeding a lot for this pass. If there was any problem, it would be unfair.

Traveling all over the world is only a privilege for a few people, and Terry does not have this privilege.

Moreover, the price of leaving the Grand Line is not affordable by ordinary people, so basically no one enters the Four Seas through formal channels.

If you have the money to go through the formalities, you can live happily on the Grand Line for a while without having to travel all over the world.

Of course, there are some illegal routes, but Terry, who is a single-handed man and was once a bounty hunter, might be in trouble if he goes there.

After all, those who use illegal means are basically pirates.

Terry's mind turned around and when his eyes began to grow serious, the guard quickly stamped the pass.

"No problem, no problem."

The guard handed the pass to Tali and said with a smile: "I have worked here for so many years. It is rare to see people from the New World traveling to the four seas. I didn't expect to meet two groups today."

"Two batches? Are they all from the New World?"

"Yes, you count as one, there is another one..."

The guard was a talkative one, and he came closer mysteriously, "I tell you it's serious, it's a fish-man gang, and it's also pirates!"

Terry was shocked, "How come pirates can go through formal channels?!"

"Hehe, who told me to follow the path of King Shichibukai? How famous is King Shichibukai now? He can go anywhere, and the world government has agreed. What can we say?"

"The Shichibukai... the fish-man pirates... so to speak, are the subordinates of Kai Xia Jinbei. Although the Shichibukai have a lot of power, they are only limited to the Grand Line. What's the point of traveling to the four seas? Opening up territories ?Fight against pirates?”

"Who knows, maybe there are other considerations above. But, I think that guy Aaron is not a kind person. He was obviously beaten by us and covered with bandages, but when he walked, he used his nose When you look at a person, you can see his hatred for our navy without even speaking a word."

"Hey, why did a force from the Shichibukai appear again? It's true, there is no peace anywhere. By the way, which sea area did Aaron ask a group of fishmen to go to?"

"The East China Sea is the weakest sea just like you."

"What?! What a coincidence?"

Terry's eyes widened. He was also going to the East China Sea. Unlike Aaron, who was going to cause trouble as soon as he heard about it, he just wanted to find a place to retire.

My hometown in Beihai was destroyed by the war, and I lost my relatives, so I chose Donghai, the weakest place, in the end.

"This is troublesome, um...can I change the destination?"

The guard curled his lips. This guy from the new world originally looked up to him, but he didn't expect his face to change drastically when he heard Aaron's name. He turned out to be a soft-footed shrimp.

"You can't change it. You think you can change the World Government's pass if you want? Stop whining, there are still people queuing up behind you!"

The guard lost his enthusiasm and urged Terry to leave quickly with a serious look on his face.

"Ah~~"

Terry had no choice but to take the pass and step on the elevator to the East China Sea.

He comforted himself in his heart that it was no big deal. No matter how chaotic it was, there would be chaos in the new world. Moreover, the East China Sea was so big that it was not so easy to encounter it.

……

Indeed, as Terry thought, most of the East China Sea was calm.

He traveled a lot in Rogge Town, saw the place where the pirate king Gold Roger was executed, and met the new mayor of Rogge Town.

That was a headquarters commander whose style was very different from that of the general navy. This was the conclusion Terry came to after watching Smoker chasing pirates at the port.

However, it is quite reassuring to have such a hateful and hateful navy of natural fruit ability users in the East China Sea.

Rogge Town was prosperous, but it was close to the Red Continent and was a bit noisy. Terry wanted to find a quiet little village to live in, so he continued traveling.

First, Cocosia Village

"Hey, traveler, come and see the fresh fruits!"

The vendors on the roadside were selling goods. As soon as Terry turned his attention, he noticed a commotion coming from the bookstore next to him, and then a little girl was carried out by a middle-aged woman scolding her.

After stopping for a moment, Terry figured out the cause and effect. The little girl named Nami stole the book from the store, and the boss was losing his temper.

But Terry could tell that neither the boss nor the people around him cared much about it, but instead agreed with it with a smile.

"Nami! Are you here to steal books again?"

"Hahaha, I must have been caught again."

"Be good and don't worry Bellemere."

It is a village full of goodwill. It has beautiful scenery, acceptable business, and simple folk customs. It is a good place.

Unfortunately, Terry has been paying attention to the movements at sea recently. Knowing that Aaron is wandering in this area, this village may be taken a fancy to.

"Oh!"

There was a feeling of impact on her knees. It turned out to be Nami, who was making a face and looking unconvinced. She turned her head and wanted to run, but hit Terry's leg with her head.

"It hurts!!!"

"Nami, why are you so reckless? Apologize!"

Although Terry was quite a peaceful person, the scar that grinned at the corner of his mouth was very ferocious. Nami was frightened when she looked up and hesitated to speak.

Of course Terry would not argue with a little girl, "Haha, it's okay, does it hurt?"

"Um...it doesn't hurt."

"Eh? You actually want to steal this guide to charting? Do you understand?"

Nami clutched the book in her arms and timidly said, "You understand, I like to draw sea charts."

"Really? That's really amazing!"

Terry sincerely praised him. Those who can read charts are rare and necessary talents on the sea. Nami can understand them at such a young age. No matter how much she can understand, it shows that she has excellent talents.

"Thank you. Well...can I go?"

Terry watched Nami's little figure disappear on the high slope, and there was a wave of emotion in his heart. If Nami was a young navigator, then going to sea would be her destiny.

Terry left Cocosia Village without much interaction with the locals. After just staying for one day, Terry left.

Then on the sea, I met Barati, a sea restaurant that was being renovated. The owner of the restaurant, Zhepu, was a generous man, although his fierce aura and broken right foot indicated that he had an unusual past.

But after eating one of Zhepu's dishes, Terry praised Zhepu's cooking skills. His taste buds were conquered and he completely let down his guard.

Terry rarely had such delicious food in the Grand Line, so he spent a few days eating and drinking here.

"Hey, Terry, you've been living and eating here for a few days, it's time to go."

"Why, aren't you willing to have guests? This is the first time I've ever seen a restaurant blast a guest away, Zhepu with red feet!"

After getting familiar with each other, Zhepu also revealed a little bit about his past.

"Hahaha, how could it be? No matter who it is, as long as they come hungry, I will not send them away."

Zhepu laughed proudly, "But! Look, there's no ceiling. My place hasn't opened yet. It's too much for you to stay here for so long. Besides, this is a restaurant, not a hotel! We don't provide accommodation!"

The blond kid next to him also had a look of disgust on his face, "Damn Terry, you know how I spend every night! You snore too loudly, who can stand it! If you stay here any longer, I will have a mental breakdown. Damn it, you bastard!"

Terry grabbed Sanji's back collar. Sanji wanted to escape, but he was not as fast as Terry.

"Sanji, before you say this, you should hone your cooking skills first. Every time I eat your trial cooking, I hold my nose and eat it. Compared with your master, bah, what a piece of rubbish!"

Sanji was furious when he heard Terry belittle his cooking skills. He grabbed Terry's arms with both hands, turned his body upward, and kicked Terry in the face with both feet.

Terry smiled, calmly grabbed Sanji's leg and threw him to the ground, making him lose his temper.

"Hahahaha, your kicking skills are still far behind your master!"

Sanji got up with a red face, "Master, he's just a stinky old man!"

"After someone beat me up, why are you still scolding me? You brat!"

Zhepu swung his wooden prosthetic leg and kicked Sanji far away.

"Hey, hey, hey, Zhepu, he's just a kid, don't be so energetic."

Terry was secretly shocked. Zhepu usually had a bad temper, but he didn't expect to beat up his disciple without any weakness at all.

That kick, even if it was me, would probably hurt for a long time if I didn't use the armor and domineering defense.

Unexpectedly, Sanji stood up even though he was holding his stomach and shaking.

"This little devil is very honest! Nothing will happen if you get hit by him."

"Yeah...tsk, tsk, tsk, what a strange master and disciple!"

Zhepu had already kicked people out, and Terry couldn't stay much longer. The decoration had been stopped for several days.

Then, Terry continued his journey and came to Xiluobu Village. It was really a small village. There were not even any decent streets. There was only a country nobleman living in a big courtyard.

"It's a quiet village. Aaron isn't here either. No one will disturb it. I heard there's a place called Orange Town nearby. There's no problem in life. The main thing is that it's close to Barati, so it's convenient to eat there in the future. "

"This is it, Xiluobu Village, my retirement home!"

“What a peaceful little village~~~”

Terry is fantasizing about a peaceful retirement, even though he's not yet 50.

"It's not good! It's not good! The pirates are coming! The pirates are coming..."

"Huh? What the hell?!"

Terry, who had just put down his luggage, was confused.
