Pirates: Knowledge is power

On the way, Drum put the village chief and the piece of meat on a cart.

"I said to the village chief, don't be brave when you are old. If you insist on being brave, what will be the result? You will show off your waist."

The village chief lowered his waist and sighed helplessly.

"I'm old and useless. If I were a few years younger, I wouldn't be like this."

The village chief sighed, full of lamentations about his lost youth.

He is almost eighty years old. No matter how strong he was when he was young, without a healthy body to support him, it would be difficult to display his true strength.

"Village Chief, your home has arrived."

Drum stopped the car, stepped forward and opened the door. He held the village chief in one hand and the meat in the other, and walked into the house one after the other.

"Grandpa, where have you been?"

The oil lamp in the house was suddenly lit, and Dram was startled, and the village chief and the meat in his hand almost fell to the ground.

"Bujin, when did you come back?"

The village chief jumped off Dram's hand and asked while beating his back.

How could he let his grandson see his embarrassment? He would persevere no matter how uncomfortable it was.

Bugien asked the village chief and pointed to Dram behind him.

"I just came back not long ago. Grandpa, you went there, and the guy behind you..."

"Hey, Bugin, let me introduce to you. This is Drum, the kid I told you before."

Bujin looked at Dram with a surprised look on his face.

He had indeed heard his grandfather mention the name Dram before, but in his grandfather's mouth, Dram was just a child less than ten years old.

But Bujin looked at the man in front of him with red horns and over two meters tall...

You told me this was fifteen years old!

Whose child can grow so tall at the age of fifteen?

"Bujin, don't make such a fuss. In this world, anything can happen. Drum is just growing a little faster, and he's not a monster. Why don't you hurry up and cook? Old man, I'm almost starving. .”

The village chief reprimanded his grandson, and then spoke gently to Dram.

"Dram, would you like to stay for a meal? My boy's craftsmanship is quite good."

After looking at Bugien, Drum's originally gentle eyes had turned cold, because Bugien was wearing a navy uniform, and judging from his rank, he was still a major!

The Major of this era is not the Major of Luffy's era.

The navy is now extremely powerful, and the strength of a lieutenant colonel can at least be comparable to the strength of a colonel in the headquarters in the future.

Even Dram, his current strength is not very strong.

"No, village chief, I still have something to do, so I won't stay here for now."

Drum returned to his normal expression, waved to the village chief, then turned and left.

"Remember to come and see me, old man, more often."

The village chief also waved goodbye, with indescribable tenderness in his eyes, as if he were looking at his grandson.

"grandfather……"

Just as Bugien was about to speak, he was slapped violently by the village chief.

"You bastard, you haven't come to see me for so long. Have you forgotten that you have a grandpa?"

Bugin covered his head, feeling very aggrieved.

"I didn't. I'm quite busy with work in the Navy recently, so I didn't come to see you..."

"Navy, Navy! When your father wanted to be a Navy, I broke both of his legs. It's better for you to go out without saying a word, but he ended up becoming a Navy! I'm going to break your legs too!"

The more he talked, the more angry he became. The village chief raised his cane and swung it towards Bugien.

"Grandpa, it's useless no matter how you try to stop me. Why don't dad still go to be a navy? What's wrong with being a navy? It's for justice!"

Bugin ran away with his head in his arms, but he would never give in.

"Justice! Old man, I will risk my life to correct your deformed thoughts!"

The village chief raised his cane and was furious.

……

"What are you looking at? Eat!"

Bujin, who had been beaten with a bruised nose and face, sat at the table.

The village chief didn't pay any attention to Bugien's fearful eyes and ate the meat with big mouthfuls.

"Grandpa, don't try to persuade me, I won't quit the navy."

"Then go and be your navy! Don't tell me if you die!"

The village chief was so angry that he threw the meat on the ground and left the house angrily.

Bujin sighed helplessly, walked to the village chief's seat, and picked up the piece of meat.

"Such good meat cannot be wasted."

Outside the door, the village chief looked at the starry sky outside, took a deep breath of cigarette, and exhaled his sorrow.

…………

On the other side, after sending the village chief home, Dram returned to his own house, a relatively simple-looking wooden house.

This house was built for him by the village chief when he came here two years ago.

Although the exterior is a bit crude, there is a lot of furniture inside.

The most precious thing in the whole house is probably the bookshelf full of books.

After all, in the world of pirates, books are quite expensive and cherished.

After Dram entered the house, he threw the Bailey he harvested today on the ground. He walked to the bookshelf, took out a book from it, sat in front of the window and read.

It took a while, but then Durham closed the last page of the book.

A mechanical voice also sounded in his mind.

[Zi~ The Biological Illustrated Encyclopedia has been read, and a total of 100 books have been read, and an additional reward has been obtained: a devil fruit map]

Drum was not surprised by the voice that appeared in his head. After all, his soul originally belonged to another world.

He appears here because of an accidental death.

However, Dram did not suddenly appear in this world. When he first came to this world, he also had parents and a family.

But now...he is alone, and what he had at the beginning has long been lost.

He waved his hand and opened his own panel.
