Chapter 63 Swordsmanship Instructor
"What should I do?" Yian blinked his eyes and pretended to be stupid.
Smoghu squirted out a sip of cigar smoke and said, "Don't pretend with me, you can see for yourself, how much trouble will it cause for Roger Town?"
Yian turned around and looked around. He saw that the huge square was covered with blood and craters, and the execution platform collapsed. The injured pirates and the navy sat on the ground and groaned quietly. He could see doctors running around to treat the wounded everywhere, which was a tragic scene after the war.
"This is not my fault, right?" Yian spread his hands and said, "These are all done by pirates!"
"But you shouldn't have killed so many people!" Dasqi walked over from the side and shouted at Iando.
Yian gave her a blank look: "It's their own fault!"
"you……"
At this moment, Smog said, "Dasqi, don't be so naive. Since you have become a formal navy, you must get used to this kind of thing. If you still have this kind of compassionate attitude, you may be killed by the pirates first!"
Dasqi realized the coldness in Smoger's tone and couldn't speak immediately. Finally, he turned around and left with anger.
Smoger shook his head. This is how the young naval soldiers were. Under the ideological education of the navy, they were full of justice and passion when they first came out. Only after they experienced too many things would they realize the cruelty of this world. Whether it was a pirate or a navy, killing or being killed was fate.
He looked at Yian again and said, "I originally wanted to arrest you, but since you didn't escape, then forget it. As you said, I don't care about the pirates, they took it upon themselves, but you destroyed the execution station. This is always a fact, right? Now I give you two choices, you either compensate or be responsible for repairing the execution station! But you can only do it yourself!"
"Do it yourself?" Yian said in surprise: "I don't know how to do carpentry, do it yourself?"
"Oh, so, are you planning to compensate?" Smog said.
As a result, Yian asked carefully: "That... can you ask first, how much will it cost if you compensate?"
"At least 50 million Baileys!" Smoger reported a number.
Yian jumped up immediately: "Fifty million!? You want 50 million for a broken wooden rack? Why don't you grab it??"
"Absolutely worth the price!" Smoger said seriously: "You must know that this is the execution platform for the execution of One Piece Roger. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a historical site. Most of the tourists who come to Roger Town come to see the execution platform. During the period when the execution platform is being repaired, do you know how many tourists will be lost?"
Damn, 50 million, it's not enough to add Bucky and Crick's bounty!
Speaking of the bounty issue, Yian suddenly remembered that he ran to the dead Creek, took off the gloves with diamonds inlaid on his fist, wiped off the blood stains on it, and stuffed them into his pocket. This is also money!
Smoger looked at his actions and did not make any noise. After all, Crick was killed by Ian, and he could not deny this, so the bounty must be given to Ian at that time. Ian also has the power to deal with Crick's property.
Although the Navy has captured a lot of people from the Creek Pirates, many of them have also escaped. The Navy has dispatched warships to the sea to pursue these remnants. I believe that under such a double blow, the dissolution of the Creek Pirates is a foregone conclusion.
Just as Smoger was thinking about how to deal with the aftermath, he saw Yian running back and said, "I want to remind you that Crick's bounty and wealth are added together, and you will not be able to pay enough!"
"I know!" Yian nodded and said, "So I don't plan to pay anymore, I'm willing to do carpentry!"
While saying that, Ian took out the certificate when he caught Bucky and handed it to Smog and said, "Give me this bounty together!"
"..." Smog was speechless for a while. After taking the documents, he found that the guy in front of him was also caught by the guy in front of him. In other words, the navy would pay more than 20 million yuan in a bounty this time to Yian.
Such a rich guy actually chose to do woodworking in order not to lose money? This really made Smoger not know what to say.
If Ian knew Smog's thoughts, he would definitely sneer. What a joke, I want me to pay? I am so poor that I want to grab money. I had just thought about building a wooden stand. If I could handle it for tens of thousands of Baileys, I would give it. As long as I could get Smog, I would give it to him. However, I wouldn't expect that Smog would give him 50 million as soon as he spoke, so Ian didn't plan to accompany him.
Isn’t it just a carpenter work? Don’t blame me if you repair it crookedly then!
I guess Smog thought of this, and after a long headache, he spoke: "Let's do this, I'll give you the third choice. You stay at the naval base in Roger Town and be a swordsman for one year. The execution station is repaired by the navy. What do you think?"
Yian looked at Smog in confusion, wondering why he suddenly gave up such a condition.
In fact, he did not understand Smog's current situation. Although he saw that Smog came to Roger Town as the head of the town, it was actually a disguised derogation from the Navy headquarters to the East China Sea. Smog was a problematic child in the Navy. He was very independent and rarely obeyed the orders of his superiors. The Navy also took this opportunity to keep him away from the headquarters and was not upset.
In this case, the manpower situation brought by Smog can be imagined. The elite naval soldiers on the warship who escorted him will return at that time. The subordinates who Smog can really use are only Dasqi and a few others. And when he first came to Roger Town, what he saw was the navy's flinch when facing the pirates, which made him feel that these people were useless.
The scene of Yian killing Crick with one sword made him realize that the pirate hunter in front of him was a good swordsman. So he suddenly felt a sudden change in his heart and wanted to keep Yian as a swordsman instructor. In this way, one would have masters under his command, and the other would also use Yian to train these naval soldiers in Roger Town, which could be said to kill two birds with one stone.
In fact, this kind of idea of trying to pull the navy when you see a good seedling. Not only Kap, but also many officers in the navy. The advent of the era of great pirates has caused many navy to feel that they are short of manpower. As long as the other party is not a pirate, you will definitely try it if you can find a way to pull the navy. So let alone Yian, who is a pirate hunter, even a real pirate, can sometimes adapt: this is how the Seven Warriors Sea comes from!
Hearing Smog's words, Yian shook his head desperately: "A year is too long, don't do it! I'll do it better if I go to carpenter!"
"How long can you take it?" Smoger asked.
Ian thought about it and found that he really needed to stay in Roger Town for a while. First, he had to wait for Karp to come back and hand over the letter Ace to him. By the way, if Karp could help, second, he had been out for so long, and I don’t know what happened to Master Koshiro and Zoro Guina. While he is still in the East China Sea, he might have to write a letter to report his safety or something.
Since you have to stay for a while, it is not a problem to agree to Smoger's conditions. Smoger said that being a swordsman instructor does not have to join the navy by himself, so he is free and can leave at any time.
Before going to sea, Master Gengshiro asked Yian if he wanted to join the navy. At that time, Yian shook his head and denied that the navy was indeed powerful, but to be honest, he had too little relationship with the navy. After joining the navy, even if he could win a good rank and status with his strength, he would lose his freedom. If the superiors gave a random order to station himself at the base of any island, he might stay there for many years, and then everyone would be abandoned!
With the card system, Yian must maintain his freedom. He needs to constantly challenge powerful opponents to gain experience and upgrade, and at the same time find ways to make money and draw cards to increase his strength.
Although the system does not necessarily rely entirely on the road to becoming stronger, the system is a good auxiliary after all. Yian's current idea is to learn domineering as soon as possible, because if the reason is not wrong, when the domineering learns, it should be converted into corresponding thoughts by the system, and it is a basic numerical thought! In this way, even if the card attributes are difficult to grow later, Yian's limit on the ability value of the thought will be much smaller.
Since you want to maintain freedom, the pirate hunter and pirates are the best choice. However, Yian also understands that when a pirate is inevitably chased by the navy. When his strength is not strong enough, provoking a huge force like the Shanghai Army is seeking death. He does not expect that he can have the luck of Luffy and others, and that he can escape danger every time.
Yian is still confused about his long-term goals. He has not thought about becoming One Piece, looking for Roger's big secret treasures, etc. Those things are too far away, but he can see the short-term goals clearly.
If the war will still happen in the future, it means that the turmoil of the times is coming. At that time, he may join a certain force, but whether he becomes a pirate, a navy, or a revolutionary army, there is a prerequisite, that is, he must have enough strength to protect himself. Now he has no qualifications to take sides.
After all, living in the world is nothing more than seeking survival.
Thinking of this, Yian became more aware of his thoughts and felt that it would be better not to have a too stiff relationship with the navy, so he raised a finger and said, "Let's do it, one month! In this month, I will be a swordsman for you, so don't mention compensation from the execution station, is it OK?"
Smog originally thought that a month was too short, but judging from Yian's attitude, it seemed that there was no possibility of concession, so he nodded as an approval.
Yian pointed and said, "Happy, please report the bounty first!"
Smoger didn't know what he thought of, and unconsciously looked at the naval flag flying over the base in the distance.
