Dragon Slayer of Pirate World

A warship traveling with the wind and at full speed is extremely fast. Even a fishman who is good at swimming would find it difficult to catch up easily.

But they were attacked, and the first one whose bottom was smashed was the medium-sized command ship on which Leiter was riding.

Maybe this was a premeditated ambush.

Leiter thought so while resting on the bed.

Nokigao, who was sitting by the bed and taking care of him, clearly felt that Leiter's breathing was getting heavier.

She couldn't help but ask:

"Brother Lei Te, why are you feeling uncomfortable?"

"It's nothing," Leiter tried to make his voice sound more confident, "I just used too much force. Just rest for a few minutes and it will be fine. By the way, Nokigao, help me find something to eat. My stomach is almost empty now." "I'm so hungry"

Nokigao responded obediently and turned around to go to the kitchen. Nami was the only one left in the house who had fallen asleep soundly.

Leiter glanced at the little girl, smiled and shook his head, but the smile quickly disappeared.

He had thought of the worst possible reasons for the attack, but he had no evidence in his hands.

He couldn't attack the mouse, but this incident did remind him: the righteous navy is not that simple.

"Lieutenant Colonel Leiter, you really did not disappoint me. It was another beautiful victory."

One day later, Leiter returned to the base and received high praise from Colonel Mouse:

"I have already reported to the headquarters and specially asked you to take credit. If nothing else happens, with the combat achievements accumulated in the past three months, your military rank will soon be the same as mine, hahaha."

His smile was extremely sincere and there was no problem at all.

Once people have preconceptions, they will look at things completely differently. Since Leiter has determined that the mouse is behind his back, he will not be touched in any way no matter how enthusiastic the mouse is.

But when faced with the mouse's praise, he quickly smiled:

"Thank you very much, Colonel. I believe that soon, I will call you Brigadier Rat."

"Hahaha, it's all thanks to my brothers."

This time, the mouse's laughter sounded especially genuine.

Since the bottom of the medium-sized battleship was damaged and needed repairs, and he was worried about the fishmen's counterattack, Leiter temporarily stopped his long-range attack plan, and only ordered his subordinates to catch some small fish and shrimps in the surrounding waters, and occasionally let others earn their military exploits. , if they were defeated by the pirates, wouldn't it further demonstrate the bravery of Lieutenant Colonel Leiter?

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Leiter took a short vacation for himself and took Noqigao and Nami back to Cocoa West Village.

In just over three months, Bellmere and Ajian's relationship has become very close. The two decided to officially get engaged on this day. Of course Leiter and the two little girls must be present.

Bellmere, who has always been bold and unruly, also looked a little shy at this time, especially when facing his two adopted daughters, and even didn't know how to explain it.

But with Nokigao and Nami's IQs, why does she need to explain?

"Bellemere, what would you like as a gift?"

Leiter indeed came empty-handed.

Of course Bellemare wouldn't care either:

"You've helped me a lot, Rhett."

Leiter smiled and stamped his feet, then pointed to the hillside north of Cocoyasi Village:

"I'll give this mountain to you."

With just one sentence, the hillside that originally had only a few shrubs changed its appearance.

The steep mountain road became smoother and smoother, and the overgrown weeds disappeared. The most surprising thing was that orange trees as tall as a person grew on the entire hillside. The heavy golden oranges seemed to be about to fall from the branches at any time.

In ancient times, rich people contracted fish ponds. Today, I, Bolderet, will contract the hills for you.

Now that he had shown such skill, in the next few days, Leiter became a well-known agricultural expert in Cocoyasi Village.

Reclaim wasteland, improve soil quality, plant saplings, artificial insemination, harvest fruits, and dig fish ponds

He also used his ability to control plants to help many poor families around him build new houses. For him, this was really just a thought.

The only task that was somewhat difficult for him was to find underground water sources.

This required him to slowly spread his attention along the soil beneath his feet until he found the water veins.

But thanks to this mission, he finally found an introductory method to practice the Haki of Knowledge and Color.

Although he has the knowledge color, there is still no clue about the domineering color of the armed color and the overlord color. Perhaps this is directly related to the devil fruit ability he obtained: his ability does require relatively high requirements for the control and perception of power. In other words, He probably prefers a mage

Perhaps it was because Aaron was still injured and the fish were leaderless, or perhaps because the fishmen had suffered too heavy a loss and were unable to launch a counterattack. Anyway, when Leiter returned to the base after ten days of rest, he did not hear that the naval warship was attacked. news.

Instead, he received good news.

Colonel Mouse informed him in a very happy tone:

"Due to the effectiveness of our 16th branch in suppressing bandits in the past four months, in three days, the headquarters will send someone to commend us. At that time, we will also announce your promotion order. You should make some preparations."

Leiter nodded.

The mouse reminded again:

"By the way, I heard that the people sent from above have a bad temper. Let's all be careful."

Leiter couldn't help but laugh.

I can even tolerate you, a wretched man with a deer head and rat eyes, but why can’t I tolerate others?

6 month 25 day.

The 16th Navy Branch welcomed the Navy Headquarters work group as scheduled.

Mouse almost went to the port early in the morning to greet him. In order to show his importance, he also organized a large number of island residents to line up to welcome him, and even prepared dozens of white children holding flowers to welcome him along the way.

When the warship of the headquarters docked, Mouse was the first to rush forward. Without saying a word, he gave a standard salute:

"I am the base commander of the 16th branch, Colonel Mouse. Thank you for your hard work, sir."

The first person to step off the battleship was a young man in his 20s.

He has short silver hair, an angular face, and a thick cigar in his mouth, which is slowly smoking. With his open shirt, he reveals his strong pectoralis major muscles and eight-pack abs, and he looks... As fierce as a social thug.

He glanced at the cautious mouse and waved casually:

"I'm Colonel Smoker."

Mouse has always had good self-cultivation skills. Even though he was so ignored, he was not unhappy at all. Instead, he asked with a smile:

"Colonel Smoker traveled thousands of miles to come here. The journey was dusty and very hard. I specially prepared some local specialties. Although they are simple, I invited the colonel to taste them."

Smoker waved his hand impatiently:

"No need, I still have something to do, quickly summon the people above the lieutenant level"

After being scolded twice in a row, Smoker obviously looked down on the rat with a sinister look, but the rat still didn't get angry. Instead, he nodded repeatedly:

"All the personnel have been summoned. Please come here, Colonel."

"The 16th branch has continuously wiped out more than 20 pirate groups in just over three months, with a total bounty of more than 16 million berries. It has achieved remarkable results. In order to commend its achievements, the Navy Headquarters has decided to appoint the base commander and colonel of the [-]th branch. Rat was promoted to brigadier general and Lt. Col. Leiter was promoted to colonel.”

As Smoker's calm voice fell in the conference room, the mouse's face was filled with joy after being promoted.

He carefully put away the promotion order and handed it to his orderly, and then sent out an invitation to Smoker again:

"Colonel Smoker, thank you again for your hard work. We will have a drink at the base. What do you think?"

In terms of military rank, the promoted rat is Smoker's superior, but after all, Smoker is the colonel of the headquarters, and he is still not comparable to the rat in terms of weight.

Smoker declined his invitation for the third time and asked a question instead:

"I don't have much interest in drinking, but if you want to express my gratitude, I do have a wish that I don't know if you can satisfy."

Such a question was a bit impolite, but the mouse nodded happily:

"Please tell me, Colonel, as long as I can do it, I will do my best."

Smoker pressed the cigar into the ashtray and showed a meaningful smile:

"The record of the 16th branch is so outstanding in the East China Sea. You, the base commander, must be very strong. Apart from smoking, I have only one hobby in my life. Please discuss with me, Brigadier Rat."

He dragged out the word "Brigadier General" for a long time, obviously with sarcasm in mind.

Under the gaze of nearly a hundred people, the sweat on the mouse's head instantly dripped down.

"Colonel is the elite of this department. How can I have the ability to compete with you?"

While he was beating Hahaha, he quickly pushed Leiter out:

"By the way, Lieutenant Colonel Leiter, oh no, Colonel Leiter, you are an extremely rare Devil Fruit user, and you are also the most powerful representative of our 16th branch. It is up to you to accompany Colonel Smoker on behalf of our branch. Let’s learn two moves.”

Leiter didn't buy it, but instead did a Tai Chi move:

"I would like to compete with the elites of our branch, but I am afraid that I am not capable enough and will lose the face of the branch. Brigadier General Mouse is the strongest representative of our branch. It is better for you to compete with Colonel Smoker."

The mouse's legs suddenly became weak and he almost fell to the ground.
