Pirate Catcher in the Rye

"Cough cough~"

After coughing lightly, Edson picked up the tea cup in front of him and drank the tea nonchalantly, pressing Hawkins' raised head down along the way.

He couldn't stand Hawkins' pitiful eyes. It was so sinful to look at that cute pink face!

'Damn you beast! '

Hawkins secretly complained.

He had made it so obvious, but Ederson didn't even say anything.

I was slapped for no reason, and now I am looking at you so pitifully. Even a fool knows that I am asking for a favor. My emotional intelligence is worrying!

You deserve it for not being able to find a wife!

If Edson knew what Hawkins was thinking, he would definitely not be able to help but slap him again to let Hawkins know the dangers of society and the love from his uncle.

No, at least ten slaps, or more!

In fact, this is no wonder Edson. After all, Hawkins is the eldest son of the Basil family and the future heir to the patriarch. If he needs anything, everyone will try to satisfy him. Edson will naturally not think of this.

of course,

It was also because of Hawkins's own reasons. He turned too sharply and no normal person could keep up!

"Don't worry, 20 years is enough!"

Hawkins shrugged: "What is so difficult for you may be easy to solve. You know nothing about geniuses!"

It's just Beihai.

Luffy was invincible in the East China Sea at the age of 17, and Hawkins was invincible in the North Sea at the age of 20, right?

"click~"

Hearing Hawkins' extremely arrogant words, Edson clenched his fist tightly and finally suppressed the urge to beat Hawkins.

I don’t know how his brother Edwin, such a polite gentleman, could give birth to such a domineering son!

'Don't be angry, don't be angry, he's just a child! '

Edson thought silently in his heart and kept hypnotizing himself. After a while, he finally calmed down.

"Then today, your task begins with identifying the cards."

"Every fortune teller must first memorize the key words of familiar cards, related constellations, numbers, metals and other information at the very beginning. Only by memorizing the meaning of the cards can they perform divination."

Whoa!

As he spoke, Edson took out a stack of cards and shuffled and cut the cards in front of Hawkins. His movements were so smooth and coquettish that he was comparable to the God of Gamblers Hawkins had seen in his previous life.

It is clear,

In this way, Edson wanted to increase Hawkins' interest so that he wouldn't get bored too quickly.

After all, Hawkins is so old that once the novelty is gone, he will be very repelled by boring and complicated things, especially divination.

'Who are you looking down on? '

'Have you never eaten pork or seen a pig running?Are you treating me like a country bumpkin who has never seen the world? '

Hawkins was a little angry. At this moment, he wanted to jump up and step on Edson's head and tell him that this young master has eaten more salt than you have ever eaten.

Then the real scene is...

"Clap clap clap!"

Hawkins clapped his hands sincerely, his eyes were full of little stars, and the admiration in his eyes almost overflowed.

I, who should cooperate with you in your performance, dare not turn a blind eye and force a person who is afraid of being beaten again to improvise...

At this moment, Hawkins was also suffering, and finally realized the pain of the little maid Bettina.

It really echoes the old saying,

Not a family, do not enter a door!

"Ha, he is still a child after all!"

Seeing the excited expression on Hawkins' face, Edson smiled lightly, feeling filled with a sense of accomplishment.

Hawkins is not only his nephew, but also his first disciple!

……

The year 1497 of the Haiyuan calendar.

Time flies by, and five years have passed since Hawkins learned divination from Edson.

In the past five years, in addition to systematically learning divination, Hawkins has added another element to his daily life since he was two years old -

Practice!

Of course, it is not about working hard to practice hard, nor is it about close combat with other people, it is mainly physical training.

Do 100 sit-ups, 100 push-ups, 100 squats and stand-ups every day, and do a 10-kilometer long-distance run!

This is the training method of Teacher Saitama that Hawkins refers to, and it is more suitable for his current age.

unfortunately,

He is not bald, nor has he become stronger. Instead, his hair has become thicker as he grows older.

After all, Hawkins is not Saitama's teacher. This level of training is not very useful. He was eliminated when he was four years old.

Hawkins is now almost six years old. If he had the opportunity to travel back in time, he would proudly tell everyone -

I, Hawkins, am not yet six years old, but my training intensity is already five times that of Saitama-sensei!

In other words, without considering the effect, he can beat five Saitama teachers.

"It's still a bit weak!"

Hawkins shook his head, dissatisfied with the speed of his progress.

This level is nothing in the world of One Piece, especially compared to those freaks with extraordinary talents!

Fortunately, he does not plan to go to sea too early. There are still 23 years before that time.

Although he can indeed go to sea early, it is of little significance. His goal is not to become the Pirate King, and he has little interest in historical texts.

The new world is very dangerous, there is no need to hurry up and accept the beatings from society!

Of course, the main reason was the latest episode he saw before time travel, the scene of Hawkins being beaten by Kira.

At the time, he didn't feel anything was wrong, he was just a little disappointed that Hawkins lost to the second-in-command of the Kidd Pirates.

After all, before this, he still liked Hawkins, a pretender.

Until he became Hawkins.

That scene became a lingering shadow in his heart. Even though he knew it wasn't him, he felt very uncomfortable!

Rather than becoming the Pirate King, Hawkins now wants to become a supernova and beat Kira into 'Laki'.

He is certain that he will definitely surpass Kira in the future, but the Kidd Pirates have two supernovas.

This is a little embarrassing!

However, since the other party thoughtfully offered to buy one and get one free, he naturally didn't mind teaching the two supernovas the principles of life at the same time.

Hawkins thinks he is very considerate. If someone extends his left cheek, he will not only slap the left cheek, but will also consider the emotions of the right cheek!

Because of this, even two years after the end of the top war, he must ensure a continued lead and still be able to crush the two.

otherwise…

Sooner or later you will have to pay it back!

"Whoo~"

Taking a heavy breath, Hawkins suddenly remembered what he had divined this morning, a magician's card.

The meaning of this card is: the beginning of things, changes in actions, skilled techniques and skills, and the will to implement oneself!

Apparently the magician's card represents himself.

In other words, starting from today, he will become the real 'Magician' Basil Hawkins!

"coming!"

When he saw his father, Edwin, mysteriously walking into his bedroom holding a small box, the corners of Hawkins' mouth raised slightly.

Which parent in the world doesn't want their children to be safe and happy, and doesn't want them to have ten more lives?

……
