Practice grounds.
Zoro tries to slow down his breathing rhythm to reduce the consumption of his energy.
"This is the first day? Have to stay Almost two weeks? And half. "
The midday sun was so intense that the sweat stains from Zoro's sideburns almost soaked the neckline.
Suddenly, a shadow stretched from the front to his feet.
Zoro looked up, and it was a boy in a straw hat.
"It's you…" he had an impression, catching a glimpse from a distance before.
"Give him back the knife," Luffy said to Helemeppo who followed behind him.
"Yes, Luffy Sama."
Helemeppo turned into a dogleg and quickly threw the three knives in his hand at Zoro's feet, and at the same time changed his face and nostrils to the sky:
"Be grateful, Roronoa, your punishment has been spared by Luffy Sama!"
Luffy Sama? What kind of big man is this?
"What does that mean?" Zoro's gaze froze.
Luffy smiled and said, "I heard about you, to protect a little girl, you hacked this guy's dog to death?" So being tied up here and living for a month to be free. "
"That, Luffy Sama, that's a wolf…" reminded Helemeppo in a low voice.
"Huh?" Luffy glanced at him.
Helemeppo quickly changed his words: "Dog, yes, yes, it's a dog!" It is worthy of Mr. Luffy, He saw through the disguise of that beast at a glance, it is so hateful, that the dog almost deceived even his master! "
Zoro: "…"
"Just know? why don't you apologize now?" Luffy nodded in satisfaction.
Upon hearing this, Helemeppo suddenly raised his chest and stared at Zoro with his nostrils: "Hum, I will reluctantly accept your apology." "
Syllable!
Luffy patted him on the back of the head and gave Helemeppo a light slap.
"Master Luffy?"
"Are you stupid? I told you to apologize not him. "
Zoro: "…"
Helemeppo: "…" "Is it my licking position that is wrong? How did it become my turn to apologise?"
Zoro couldn't help but laugh a few times: "Although I don't know why you want to help me, I still thank you." "
"My name is Luffy."
Luffy smiled slightly, "Recruiting crews and preparing to clear the Grand Line." I heard that you have some strength, come to my ship. "
"Sorry, I'm looking for a man named Hawkeye, I can't get on your boat."
Speaking of Hawkeye, Zoro's gaze sharpened: "It is my ambition to defeat that person and become the world's number one swordsman!" "
"Hawkeye, I know."
"You know?! Where is he? "
Zoro was suddenly a little excited.
"It should come to the East Blue Sea from the Great Route, I don't know where it is, I will help you ask when I have the opportunity."
"You know him?" Zoro froze for a moment.
"I don't know, but he knows me."
Zoro: "…"
Helemeppo: "…"
Is this Garp's grandson, Mr. Luffy?!
Helemeppo sighed in his heart, even Hawkeye, one of the seven Warlord of the sea, knew him, and he was also a second generation, why the gap is so big?
Daddy, you can't do it! It can only let me be in Shell town!
"Why, you don't believe it?" Luffy grinned and said, "Do you know who my father-in-law is?" "
"Who is your father-in-law?" Zoro couldn't help but ask.
"One of the four pirate emperors of the New World, captain of the red-haired pirate group, red-haired Shanks."
Luffy moved out the background killer again and said: "Hawkeye fought with my father-in-law back then, but it was because my father-in-law did not use the overlord colour, which barely reached a tie, but I didn't expect to be said by the outside world to be the first swordsman in the world." "
What new world, the four emperors, the overlord colour, the red hair, Zoro does not understand at all now.
But to tie, he understood.
To be able to draw with the world's number one sword Dracule Mihawk, this guy's father-in-law is indeed remarkable!
"Wait a minute!" Zoro suddenly reacted: "Your father-in-law is a pirate? Then you invited me on board is…"
"Join my Straw Hat Pirates, of course."
"You're a pirate?"
"You're a pirate!?"
It was Helemeppo who made the exclamation.
His eyes widened incredulously, obviously, there was a Vice Admiral grandfather, why would he run to be a pirate?
It's an idiot, right?
Luffy was too lazy to take care of the fussed doglegs and said
"How? Get on my boat, and sooner or later you will meet the Hawkeye you want to see. "
Hearing this, Zoro grinned: "Since you have said so, if I refuse again, I don't know how to be grateful." I promise you, Captain! But one condition, if I can't find Hawkeye, I'll leave the team! "
"No problem."
Are you afraid that you will get lost and leave the team at that time?
Luffy smiled and gave Helemeppo a look: "Don't loosen the ties on my vice-captain yet?" "
"Yes!"
Helemeppo was full of excitement and quickly walked over to untie the rope.
However, at this moment, an angry rebuke came.
"What are you doing!"
Hearing the familiar voice, Helemeppo was startled and turned to see Colonel Morgan.
"Daddy…"
Seeing his father's livid face, he was so frightened that he quickly dissociated himself: "It's all Luffy Sam… No, it was all pirate Luffy who forced me to do it! He's a pirate, Daddy, save me! "
He ran quickly towards his father, like a milk swallow returning to his nest.
Seeing his son running towards him, Morgan punched out with his left fist.
Burst!
Helemeppo was hit in the cheek with a punch, and the whole person turned seven hundred and twenty degrees in the air and flew to the wall with a bang.
"Did you misunderstand something, the great is your daddy me! Who allowed you to release prisoners without my permission? "
Morgan snorted coldly, and when his gaze turned to Luffy, he eased a little.
"Your Excellency Luffy, do you have anything to explain? I should have warned them not to approach this felon. "
After a pause, he said: "Moreover, you call yourself a pirate, and Alvida also said that you are a pirate… What does that mean? "
Hearing this, the corners of Luffy's mouth rose slightly.
"I have received a report from the masses, Morgan, you are brutal and tyrannical on this island, using power for personal gain, now lay down your arms and obediently surrender, I will talk to my grandfather and ask for leniency!"
