Pirates: The Greatest Scoundrel in Navy History

Chapter 285

Shiki the Golden Lion! ?

The legendary pirate, a top powerhouse who is as famous as Roger and Whitebeard, and even more dangerous than the latter two in the assessment of the Navy Headquarters!

The moment he heard this name, Darren's eyes shone, and Garp and Kuzan beside him were also slightly stunned.

"Hey, hey, Darren hasn't even graduated from the training camp yet. It's not appropriate to let him deal with Shiki, right?"

Garp maintained his usual style and spoke bluntly.

Although Darren's strength is already very strong, he is still far behind Shiki the Golden Lion.

Garp, who has fought with the Golden Lion many times, knows this better than anyone else.

Darren also fell silent.

You have to know that the Golden Lion at this time was not the crippled one who was beaten away by Luffy later, but a real existence standing at the peak of the sea's combat power!

Terrifying devil fruit ability,

unparalleled two-sword swordsmanship,

even with his grand ambition of "dominating the world and roaring the sea"...Darren has no doubt that this guy has definitely awakened the Conqueror's Haki!

It can be said without hesitation that, to a certain extent, the Golden Lion at this time is even more difficult to deal with than Roger and Whitebeard, and is more feared!

After all, this guy was able to break into the Navy Headquarters alone, destroy half of Marinford, and was finally defeated by Garp and Sengoku.

Borsalino shrugged and smiled:

"This is the order of General Sengoku, and the commander of this mission is General Sengoku himself."

Hearing this, Darren's eyes flashed.

So that's it, you want to take me to contain the ability of the Golden Lion's Float-Float Fruit?

He understood instantly.

So he stopped hesitating and asked with a smile:

"Okay, when do we set off?"

After spending more than half a year in the headquarters and practicing hard, Darren really wanted to go out to sea.

It is far from enough to simply work behind closed doors. If you want to grow into a real strong man, actual combat is always an indispensable part.

And he also wanted to see with his own eyes how strong that arrogant lion is.

"We will set sail tomorrow, go back and prepare."

After Borsalino finished this sentence slowly, his figure scattered into countless golden lights and disappeared on the spot.

"Well... it's a good choice to go out to sea for some experience. We've done the necessary training, and continuing to train is just a waste of time."

At this time, Garp looked at Darren and said thoughtfully:

"But Darren, don't take it lightly... that bastard Ski is different from the pirates you have encountered before."

"Roger, Whitebeard, Bondi Waldo... these pirates who dominate this era, although their strength is extremely strong, to a certain extent, these guys are not absolutely bad guys."

"Bondi Waldo wants to fight against the World Government, Whitebeard just wants to protect his family, and as for Roger, that bastard wants to take risks freely... As pirates, they have naturally done more or less bad things, but that's all."

"But that guy Ski is different..."

At this point, Garp's eyes became slightly gloomy, flashing with solemnity and fear.

"Shiki the Golden Lion is a pure pirate."

"Plunder, destruction, fraud, cunning, forbearance, greed... As long as he can achieve his goal, he will not hesitate to use any means, and there is no bottom line at all."

"In addition to the special nature of his ability of the Float-Float Fruit, every time this guy shows up and moves, it will give our navy a headache."

Darren nodded and said with a smile:

"Don't worry, Vice Admiral Garp, I will pay attention."

Looking at Darren's calm reaction, Garp was stunned at first, thinking that the other party did not take his instructions seriously.

But he reacted immediately the next second.

Plunder, destruction, fraud, cunning, forbearance, greed, unscrupulous...

Isn't this the pirate version of Darren! ?

Or, isn't Darren the navy version of the Golden Lion! ?

Well, I was worrying too much.

Garp smiled bitterly and shook his head.

With the strength of Sengoku, plus Borsalino, it is enough to contain Shiki.

In addition, Darren is so cunning and sly, so he doesn't have to worry about them getting hurt.

Maybe the one who will suffer in the end is Ski.

Thinking of this, Garp instantly understood why Sengoku wanted to bring Darren with him on this mission.

This is to let the "scum of the navy" deal with the "scum of the pirates"...

"This is so cool!!"

At this time, Kuzan finally couldn't hold back his excitement and shouted while waving his fist.He stared at Darren with burning eyes:

"Darren, you are going to defeat the legendary pirate Shiki the Golden Lion!!"

He turned his head and looked at Garp, his eyes full of expectation.

"Mr. Garp! I want to go too!!"

"No!"*2

Darren and Garp said in unison.

Kuzan: "..."

Darren didn't want Kuzan, a hot-blooded guy, to chatter in his ears all the way on the road.

"Kuzan, you still lack the experience of fighting with top strong men. This mission is too dangerous for you."

Garp said bluntly:

"Wait until you have learned from me and become a master, then you can go."

He looked at Kuzan with expectations in his eyes.

It was not easy to find a seedling who could "understand" his teachings, but he couldn't let him go so easily.

"Hey, Darren, why are you still standing here? Hurry up and leave."

Kapu turned his head and waved at Darren like he was shooing away flies.

Darren: ...

Hey, hey, hey, why are you treating me differently?

A few black lines floated on his forehead.

...

The next day.

When the distant sky was a little pale, Darren had already gotten up early.

The luggage had been packed and was thoughtfully arranged by Ashi and placed in front of the door.

Looking at Ashi who was sleeping soundly, Darren couldn't help but think of the madness of saying goodbye last night and smiled.

"Iron blocks are still quite practical."

He stretched his waist refreshed, and the sea stone shackles made a rattling sound.

After a simple breakfast, Darren picked up his luggage and walked out of his door.

Facing the rising sun,

Darren walked slowly towards the direction of the naval port.

The home behind me is getting farther and farther away, and the peaceful life seems to be far away.

At the naval port.

A large number of naval soldiers are carrying boxes of supplies onto the warship. Zhan Guo, who is commanding his subordinates, suddenly paused, turned around, looked at Darren who came to the naval port and smiled:

"Are you here?"

Darren raised his hand and saluted:

"Commodore Rogers Darren of the Navy Headquarters, here!"

Zhan Guo looked at the shackles on Darren's hands in surprise and asked:

"Why are you still wearing this thing?"

Darren smiled:

"I'm used to wearing it, I'll take it off on the way."

Zhan Guo nodded.

Seeing that the munitions, food and other supplies have been moved, he took Darren on the warship.

The sea breeze was cold, and the air was solemn.

"Set sail!!"
