One Piece: Dark Empire

The moon is bright and the breeze is blowing.

Under the cold moonlight, Reina was alone, sitting at the stone table in the courtyard to enjoy the night view, drinking alone against the shadow.

Without the figures of disciples practicing swords on weekdays, the huge dojo seemed a little lonely.

Click~

The door of the dojo slowly opened, breaking the silence.

"You boy, the door is opening more and more skillfully."

Reina put down the wine gourd and smiled slightly, "I remember when you first came, it took a lot of effort to push the door."

"And thank you sir for passing me a sword that day."

Lin Ye stopped and said very gratefully.

Without Reina's assassination sword technique, he would have been killed by the fat man long ago.

"Sit, this is a fine wine I've treasured for years. Come and taste how it tastes.

"Don't tell any lies that you can't drink at a young age, what have you been doing in town these days, I know everything."

Reina stretched out his finger and pointed to the seat opposite, took out two wine glasses from his arms and filled them, staring at him, not giving Lin Ye the slightest room to refuse.

Lin Ye sat down at the table, and took out the famous sword sea stone that was broken in two from behind him and placed it on the table.

The old man's action of pouring wine was slightly sluggish, "So... Good...! That's fine.

He murmured, put down the wine jug, and gently stroked the broken sword body, his eyes full of loneliness.

Seeing this scene, Lin Ye was a little puzzled, "Sir, others say that he was expelled from the division by you, Sir, because of his wanton behavior. Now it seems that there is something else to hide?

"People are not stones, of course they have feelings. Why, the student is gone, and the teacher can't be sad?

Reina glared at him, put down his sword, picked up his glass and took a sip, his eyes were faint and he didn't know where to look.

"Me and him, it's just different. Honestly, he can be regarded as my own disciple.

"For twenty years, although people have come and gone in this dojo, there are not many people who can make me remember names."

"Hobby, it's one of them."

Lin Ye nodded in agreement.

He took advantage of his own opportunism and directly used the power of the system to learn Reina's swordsmanship.

Hobi is a true kendo genius, and at the same time has the overlord color of one in ten thousand, and it is normal to be able to get the attention of the strong.

Reina paused and continued to mutter, "Actually, you are very similar to him. When he first appeared in this dojo, he also had no money to pay tuition. However, he joined the gang in the town and spent two years scraping together 100,000 Baileys.

"By the time he officially worshiped the teacher, he had already become the small leader of the gang."

"He's better than me."

Lin Ye nodded and said. Without the system, he now does not know whether he lives or dies. In this regard, Hobby is indeed much better than him.

"Speaking of which, the name Hobby is actually given to him by me."

The old man smiled, his eyes full of memories:

"His mother is a slave girl on the pirate ship, and after she was born, she was treated as cargo with her mother and traveled around on various pirate ships. For him, pirates are both yearning and fearful existences.

"He didn't know his name, and when he was a gangster in town, he was just called captain." Because of this title, he suffered a lot at first.

Lin Ye listened, but suddenly understood why Hobby was still obsessed with the name before he died.

For ordinary people, a name is just a code name, but for Hobby, it may be more about representing self and being recognized. I think Hobby should cherish this name very much.

"His dream is to make his name sound throughout the sea."

After Rena finished speaking, he was silent for a long time, and the hand holding the wine glass was hanging in the air, not knowing whether it was up or down.

Finally, he put the wine glass on the table and sighed: "Forget it, people die like lights out, don't mention him." Why don't we talk about you?.

"My business?" Lin Ye wondered, not knowing why Reina said this.

"Hobby is dead, what's next for you?"

"If you want to replace Hobby and dominate this town, with your strength and talent, you will soon be able to do it."

"If you want to join the Navy, even if you are not old enough, with my recommendation, you can go to your senior brother and sister and start as a naval soldier."

"Or..."

Reina's tone suddenly became stern, and he asked in a low voice, "You want to become a pirate?" "

What's next?

Juvenile...... No, no, no... The nine-year-old lowered his head and thought about it.

So far, everything he has done is either forced by the situation or to complete the tasks released by the system, but what is what he really wants?

Replace Hobby and muddle through the muddy days in this small town?

How can it be! He finally crossed over, of course, to see this sea for himself.

Become a navy and clock in 996 a day to work?

Being controlled by the world government was not what he wanted. But presumably, this is the answer that the old man in front of him expects.

So, go be a pirate?

When Lin Ye thought of this, the sunny boy wearing a straw hat and a smile suddenly appeared in his mind.

In the last life, he did not see the end of Luffy, and this time, together with that teenager, it seems good to personally help him reach the peak of the pirate and witness the moment he becomes One Piece.

The only problem is that it is now 1504 in the Haiyuan calendar, Luffy is still a one-year-old baby, and there are still 15 years before he goes to sea.

Yourself, do you have the patience to wait?

Lin Ye thought about it and almost laughed. Isn't the answer to this question of course? This is the world of One Piece, and his deepest bond with this world is that teenager.

In that case, what is there to hesitate?

Fifteen years, he could afford to wait. It can even make up for the regrets of the past. Let's customize the battlefield at the apex of the pirates as the place where we first met.

"Sir, I want to join the Navy!"

With his mind set, Lin Ye raised his head and solemnly replied.

When Reina heard this reply, he was relieved and said cheerfully:

"In that case, then the previous words will be nullified!" From today onwards, you are my ninth personal disciple!

"Yes, first... Teacher! "

.........

On the other side, in Hobby's mansion.

"Found it!"

In a certain room, Palau stared at the pink-haired, sunglasses, two rows of large white teeth, and a very dragging phone worm.

That's it!

With this, he will be able to connect with the Don Quixote family and go to the auction a month later!

There was no one around, and everyone else was searching in other rooms, and Palau took three steps and made two steps, excitedly picking up the little phone worm and carrying it in his arms.

"Brother Palau, what are you doing here?"

Palau was startled and turned to look behind him.

Savoy stood outside the door, his face calm, as if no suspicion had arisen.

Palau quickly adjusted his mentality, and Yun said lightly: "It's nothing, it's just to pay homage to the dead Hobby here."

He strode out of the room and walked forward: "Let's go, go see somewhere else." Behind

him, a flash of essence flashed in Sava's cloudy eyes, and he slowly followed with his cane.

Lowering his head, the old man said to the shadow beside him:

"Keep an eye on him!"
