I am brushing up materials in One Piece

Regarding Koss's smug smile, Murray interpreted it as admiration for his amazing record.

So he smiled generously and patted Cos on the back, almost sending Cos sitting on the side of the boat into the sea.

"It's okay. You are still young. Sooner or later you will be able to catch up with me. By the way, do you want me to teach you a few tricks? I see you are also carrying a knife."

"Okay, let's practice together later."

Kos readily agreed to Murray's proposal.

Because even if you practice until the point is reached, you can still get the corresponding materials, but depending on the opponent's seriousness, the dropped materials will be reduced to a certain extent.

For example, when fighting Michal, Kos only received half of the experience materials of his level, and the materials for Haki Haki were not dropped; and the fight with Bartolomeo was basically not a battle, so Nothing is dropped.

"Speaking of the Dragon Pirates and Buggy Pirates, have you ever heard of them?"

Because Murray only mentioned Creek and Crowe just now, but Aaron and Bucky, the two "big pirates of the East China Sea" who were also defeated by Luffy later, were not mentioned, so Kos asked curiously. .

"Huh? Never heard of it."

Murray shook his head in confusion.

"Maybe it's some unknown little pirate group."

"Oh, really?"

Kos knew that Aaron and Bucky's pirate group was by no means a small pirate group, at least this fish pond in the East China Sea was not too small.

The lack of popularity of the Dragon Pirates can be understood as Aaron deliberately not wanting to attract attention, coupled with Colonel Mouse’s deliberate cover-up; the captain of the Buggy Pirates, Bucky, is a Devil Fruit user and should not be unknown because he has not yet Come to the East China Sea?

"Seth, go get my knife, I'll give it to..."

At this point, Murray realized that he still didn't know Kos's name.

So Cos smiled and reported his name: "Cos, my surname is Ke Mingsi."

"it is good."

Murray nodded and continued to say to the escort member who was called,

"Go and get my knife. I want to show my skills to Brother Cos."

Seth, the member of the escort who was summoned, turned around and entered the cabin. When he came out a short time later, he was holding a thick sword that looked like a ghost-headed sword in his arms.

Murray pulled out the big knife from Seth's arms, held the handle of the knife with one hand and the back of the knife with the other, and handed the big knife to Kos with the blade pointed upward.

"This knife of mine seems to be a fast one. It's called Broken Bone. I've used it to fight off many pirates."

Even though it was night, and the main light sources were only the dim light from the cabin and the moonlight in the sky, the broken bones in Murray's hands still shone with a dazzling cold light.

After letting Kos watch for a while, Murray asked everyone on the left and right to move away and prepare for a good practice.

But as soon as he made a starting move, the escort member on the left side of the deck stopped.

——"Captain, there is a ship approaching directly ahead!"

Murray immediately fought with a knife and said to Cos with a serious face: "Brother Cos, please go back to the cabin first."

But Kos smiled and waved his hand and said, "No, brother Murray, don't worry, I'm much stronger than I look."

As he said that, Kos touched his arms and made a sound of metal clashing to prove that he was not simple.

Seeing that Kos's eyes did not look like an impulsive kid who suddenly got excited, Murray stopped letting him go down to the cabin and instead asked Clay to go to the cabin to inform the passengers and the person in charge of the merchant ship.

After arriving at the bow of the ship, Murray stared solemnly at the sea ahead. After watching for a while, he saw the outline of a ship in the darkness.

Then - suddenly -

Lights came on on the ship, and there were noisy, strange screams.

"Huh?"*6

Several people on the deck tilted their heads at the same time, showing puzzled expressions.

how to say?

The other person gave Kosi the feeling that he was walking on the road at night, and then a motorcycle drove towards him. Just when he was worried that it might be a speed thief, he discovered that the other person was actually a will-o'-the-wisp boy.

Apart from anything else, at least those strange screams are quite similar to the sounds made by the bosozoku that would circle around the protagonist in the wasteland worldview.

But after the initial doubts, Murray and others returned to serious mode.

Although the oncoming ship looked strange, it did have a colorful skull and crossbones flag hanging on it.

Do not take any pirates you encounter at sea lightly. This is one of the survival rules that Murray and others have learned from many years of guard life.

"Captain, there is no record of the other party's pirate flag."

A slightly polite member of the escort team wearing glasses looked at the pirate flag of the incoming ship and said with certainty.

"I see, he's a new pirate."

Murray breathed a sigh of relief,

"No wonder they chose such a terrible way to attack."

"What's the point?"

Kos asked curiously. He only thought the way the opponent appeared was quite funny, but without any experience in naval battles, he couldn't tell whether the opponent's move was a good move or a bad move.

After it became clear that the incoming pirate ships posed almost no threat, Murray seemed much more relaxed. He began to slowly tell Cos about the pirates' methods of attacking merchant ships:

"Generally speaking, the pirates will come out diagonally from the front to form a 'T' shape with the merchant ship being attacked, and then use the side artillery to fire several rounds at the front of the merchant ship.

However, because their purpose was to plunder rather than sink merchant ships, the bombardment did not last long.

When the people on the merchant ship have not recovered from the sudden shelling, they will board the merchant ship for a boarding battle.

Moreover, shelling often creates some gaps in the hull, so the pirates may directly enter the chaotic cabin, which makes it difficult for even if there are good hands on the ship to attack.

The ships coming toward us now either don't know what to do, or they don't even have cannons, so they can only hope to scare us in this weird way. "

After listening to Murray's analysis, Costo held his chin and thought for a while before putting forward his own ideas: "Do you think it's possible that this ship coming from the front is actually attracting attention, and the real pirate ship is still in the dark? .”

"not good!"

Murray broke into a cold sweat at Kos's words. He immediately tensed up and looked around. At the same time, the rest of the escort team members also looked nervously at the sea around them.

But fortunately, Kos's crow's mouth did not come true, and no second pirate ship appeared until the weird pirate ship approached the merchant ship.

Four non-mainstream people with permed haircuts jumped onto the merchant ship with hooks and claws. They all looked fierce, but the one with the highest level was only level 13, which was not as strong as the weakest one in the escort team. , and also has no skills.

"That guy belongs to me!"

Kos took the lead in booking the thirteenth-level green-haired non-mainstream, and then rushed forward with his knife.

“Young people are really motivated.”

One second, Murray was sighing as if he was resigned to his old age, and the next second he jumped out energetically,

"I'll take care of the rest!"
