Chapter 285 Ace: I Want to Make up for My Father's Regret of Not Being Able to Join the Navy! 【Triple】

The news of Kong's retirement as Admiral of the Navy gradually spread across the sea, but among the common people, few people knew that Kong did not retire, but went to Marie Gioia to serve as the commander-in-chief of the entire army.

Warring States can be regarded as taking office, and the title has not been changed. On the one hand, it is following the procedure, and on the other hand, the world government wants to hold a title ceremony for the Warring States on a suitable occasion.

Especially since the sea seemed to be calm, the world government was not in a hurry, and the three alternate generals had entered the final assessment stage. Once the Warring States were awarded titles, they could also be appointed by the Warring States to be promoted to generals.

And the first order of the Warring States Period after taking office was to open the world conscription, which delayed the recruit training camp, which should have started in October, until the second year.

Zefa also got a rare rest time, followed Karp to the East China Sea, while guiding Karp's two grandsons, while recovering from illness, although there were medicines, Zefa's demanding work and rest and the burden of being the chief instructor still made him His asthma gradually became serious, and the navy also took this opportunity to let Zefa rest.

The new year is coming, because the Zhanye detachment did not take turns during the Chinese New Year last year. After all, the chief Skyler was forced to "show loyalty" because of "swearing" the Tianlong people.

But since Schuyler was promoted to lieutenant general of the headquarters and led the Zanye detachment to guard the G-5 branch, he has performed well. The pirates captured by the Zanye detachment and the G-5 branch are less than the other four New World branches combined. many.

The merits and demerits were balanced, and even a lot of merits were surplus, and because the Warring States was forced to change the justice he pursued, he was at odds with the world government. In a fit of anger, he gave Skyler and Zhan Ye detachment a month's leave.

On New Year's Day, Skyler also returned to the Kingdom of Goa. This time, even Nurkic didn't come with him. It was a holiday shared by the entire Zhanye detachment.

Skyler also came to Windmill Village on the warships of other generals who were cruising in the East China Sea.

Saying goodbye to the general who brought him, Skyler jumped off the warship, pulled his suitcase, and walked into the windmill village. The villagers greeted Skyler frequently when they saw Skyler.

Skyler dealt with it all the way, and came to the door of Makino's tavern, because when he was talking to Capon just now, Karp said that they were all in the tavern.

Pushing open the door of the tavern, I saw two old and strong old men fighting for drinks there. Skyler walked over and said disdainfully: "Wine glasses as big as fists, how are you two keeping healthy?!"

"Hahaha~ Skyler, this is wine!"

Knowing that Skyler doesn't drink, Zefa said deliberately. At this time, Makino, who saw Skyler's arrival, also quickly made a glass of fruit punch and came over.

It is said to be a glass, but it can be said to be a barrel. Putting the fruit punch in front of Skyler, Skyler smiled and said: "Mr. Zefa, this is called fruit punch, it is a new type of cocktail, look at it ha~"

As Skyler said, he was about to act like a dragon sucking water, but Zefa gave her a disdainful look and said, "Fruit punch? Still new? How old are you as an old man? When my grandma was young, fruit punch was made It's all over the street!"

"Ahahaha~"

Skyler, who was exposed to the lie, did not feel the slightest embarrassment, nor did he act out the dragon's desire to suck water, but took two sips with the attached straw, looked at Garp, who was flushed and out of focus, and asked:

"Lieutenant General Garp, you are not drunk, are you?"

Machino explained: "Embarrassing Lieutenant General Karp got the water spray gun and the vodka spray gun wrong and poured a bucket of vodka."

Some commonly used drinks in taverns are usually packed in barrels with a pressurized spray gun, which will be more convenient when bartending, and can even replace stirring or shaking when there are many people.

Hearing that Garp had mistaken water and vodka, Skyler laughed out loud. She wasn't worried. Although ordinary people might have big troubles after drinking a barrel of vodka, Karp is not an ordinary person.

At most, he just stared for a while, and probably woke up.

Skyler didn't bother Garp either. Anyway, Garp probably couldn't listen to what he was talking about now. Instead, he asked Zefa, "Mr. Zefa, where are Ace and Luffy?"

"They? I met a kid who wanted to be a pirate, and now I'm playing with the navy in the village to catch pirates."

After Zefa finished speaking, there was a smile on his face, and there was a hint of nostalgia in the smile. This game was also his favorite game when he was a child, and the happiest thing was being drawn as a navy.

"Want to be the child of a pirate?"

Skyler frowned, thinking of someone, but at this moment there was a sound of opening the door of the tavern, Ace walked in front, Luffy walked behind, and the two were carrying a stick with another child tied to it.

"really!"

Seeing this dejected and tied up child, Skyler recognized him, the future second-in-command of the Revolutionary Army, and the successor of Drago-Sabo.

But Sabo at this time is not the second-in-command of the Revolutionary Army, but a child who ran away from a noble family. At this time, his strength is obviously very weak, and he was beaten to death by Ace and Lu Fei.

"aunt?!"

When Ace saw Skyler, he immediately dropped the stick, and Sabo fell directly to the ground. Before he could cry out in pain, the unbalanced Luffy also fell directly on top of him.

"ah!!!!"

Sabo uttered a painful cry, Luffy stood up, scratched his head, a little embarrassed, Ace glanced back, but still walked towards Skyler quickly, came to Skyler, stretched out directly hands.

"Duang~Duang~Duang~"

Skyler hit Ace on the forehead three times in a row, then pulled out three Baileys with a denomination of 10,000, and gave them to Ace. After all, there are three people in their small group now, and Skyler definitely didn't want to hit Ace more. .

Ace took the money happily, and didn't intend to chat with his aunt who had been away for two years. Instead, he ran back to Lufei and Ace, and began to untie the rope for Sabo.

After untying the rope, Sabo was still arranging the clothes and rope, so Ace held up three Baileys and said to Sabo and Luffy, "I treat you to ice cream!"

Sabo looked at the gourd on Ace's head, and said with some uncertainty: "Ace, are you really okay?"

Ace patted his forehead proudly, and said, "I make money from my head! It's very useful!"

Hearing Ace's confident words, Luffy had a look of admiration, Sabo had a look of doubt, Skyler and Zephyr couldn't hold back their laughter.

"Ahem~"

Zefa held back his smile and didn't cough, took out the spray and sprayed it, took another sip of wine to calm his breath, and said, "The Kingdom of Goa is really good, and the geniuses are one after another."

Zefer felt that Skyler didn't know Sabo, so he said: "The other kid, named Sabo, I thought he was just an ordinary kid, but the old man has recently observed that he is also a good candidate for the navy.

His body is particularly sharp, and the effect of exercise is also very good. Maybe he can follow the path of Garp and me. "

Hearing Zefa's inference, Skyler nodded. In her impression, Sabo was already very powerful before he got Ace's burning fruit, and his armed domineering and knowledgeable domineering talents were extremely high.

Especially after entering the revolutionary army to study and train, at the age of 17, he was able to single out a guard of the palace. Schuyler felt that in the era of turbulent changes more than ten years later, geniuses really appeared frequently.

On the other hand, Skyler and her peers don't have that kind of talent and achievement. She stood at the top of the world in her teens and twenties. Skyler herself has never seen this kind of talent.

Even myself and Mihawk, who were the first to realize their talents, could not become the top powerhouse at the age of twenty. Shanks, who will become the Four Emperors in the future, does not know where to wander now.

"when did you come?!"

Before Skyler answered Zefa, Karp suddenly asked in surprise. Skyler looked and found that the redness on Garp's face faded at this time, his eyes became brighter, and he couldn't see the appearance of the fragment a few minutes ago.

"I've been here for half a month. You've been sitting here motionless for half a month. People think you're dead."

Skyler turned around with a restrained smile, a serious face, and a hint of surprise.

"Scared~"

Garp suddenly looked horrified and looked at Zefa. He clearly remembered that he came here with Zefa, but when he looked over, he saw Zefa calming down the heavy emotions on his face.

Zefa put one hand on Garp's shoulder, and put his fist in front of his mouth and nose, and said with grief: "Old friend, I didn't expect... You can still wake up, I'll pay me back, everything is fine now"

As he said that, Zefa gave the terrified and confused Karp a bear hug, Makino turned around, his shoulders twitched, and Skyler could see that Makino was holding back his laughter.

But what Karp saw from Makino's back seemed to be crying.

Skyler herself didn't expect that these people would cooperate with her so much. She looked around and said, "Originally, everyone came to say goodbye to you today. Now it's all right, let's treat it as a banquet for your return!"

Garp was a bit shaken, because he remembered that when he and Zefa came over, Skyler hadn't come yet, and there weren't so many people in the tavern.

Garp even started to rejoice over the rest of his life after drinking, and even took the initiative to hug Zefa who was holding him. Just as he was about to say something, he caught a glimpse of his wine glass out of the corner of his eye.

There is still some condensation on the outer wall of the wine glass!

"Boom~"

Garp punched Zefa in the back of the heart, and said angrily: "Are you fools when you think of me as an old man?! Half a month? Why is the cup still iced? Also, how can this old man not be hungry if he doesn't eat for half a month? !"

"Cough cough ~ ah ha ha ha ~ cough cough ~ a ha ha ha ~"

Although he couldn't help coughing, Zefa just wanted to laugh, but he couldn't stop laughing, watching Garp making various inferences, but his eyes kept glancing at the clock, with a look of unconfidence, he just couldn't help it. stop laughing.

Laughing until the muscles on both sides of his cheeks began to swell, Zefa rubbed his face, used the pain to make himself stop laughing, then pointed at Skyler, and said, "It's all started by your good daughter." !"

"Obviously it was Teacher Zefa that you used tricks to make Lieutenant General Zefa drunk. I planned all this because I helped you complete this scene because of the friendship between teachers and students."

Skyler's face was full of righteousness, Garp came back to his senses, glared at Zefa, and said, "You not only deceived the old man! You dare to make the old man's daughter do bad things?! The old man will let you taste the iron fist of the old man!" !"

Makino turned around and said, "Lieutenant General Garp, don't be angry, it's Ace's birthday party tonight, you definitely don't want to miss it?!"

Hearing this, Kap, who rolled up his arms and sleeves, paused, scratched his head, and said, "Oh! I remembered!"

Then, he looked at Zefa again and said, "I'll forgive you today! I'll make you look good tomorrow!"

Zefa glared at Skyler angrily, but he didn't care about it. After all, Garp's punch was not heavy for him, and the reason why he coughed was only because the place where he was hit was the back of his heart.

And he already had asthma and cough, and he just coughed because he laughed too anxiously, it was nothing serious at all.

It was only then that Skyler remembered that today is Ace's birthday!

She knew Ace's birthday, even on the day Ace was born, she was outside the room, but she didn't have a birthday, and she didn't even remember other people's birthdays. At this moment, Magino mentioned it, and Skyler remembered it.

Skyler asks, "Ace's birthday party? Where?"

"It's right here, Dadan and the others will bring some sheep down later, and have a barbecue banquet!"

Karp said happily, Skyler nodded and said, "Then I'll go back first and put my luggage away."

After finishing speaking, she got up and left with her luggage. She had the key to the Karp's house and went to the second bedroom she had chosen. There were signs of frequent maintenance here, but the things left by Skyler had not been changed.

Putting the luggage away and throwing the blade box aside, Skyler left Garp's house. When he returned to the tavern, Dadan was already in the tavern.

Different from the half-farmer and half-bandit Dadan two years ago, today's Dadan looks like a farmer.

Long flat boots, a plaid shirt over a T-shirt, and a wide hat on top of suspenders. At this time, the hat was not put on, but held in his hand, fanning the wind.

"Long time no see, Dadan."

Dadan turned around and smiled when she saw Skyler. Although Karp and others were away, she would still call herself a bandit, but under Skyler's intentional or unintentional persuasion and threats, Dadan and the entire Dadan Home has been transformed.

Two years ago, he only raised nearly a hundred sheep. Although he also shaved and milked them, it was just a job for himself when he had nothing to do. But now, Dadan has fallen in love with this job.

Not only can they earn the same money, but they can even communicate well with people. When the villagers of Fengche Village see themselves or other people from Dadan House, they will no longer look at them like garbage.

Goat milk and wool, those in the village who went to sea to do business, would also help them sell them. Although Dadan seemed unwilling to take money, he couldn't hold back the enthusiasm of the villagers.

And with the money, her "ranch" has developed better and better. Now the entire Mount Korpo has become a sheep breeding base, and there are still several places where villagers can go up the mountain for barbecue.

Mount Korpo is no longer separated from the Windmill Village, but has become a part of the Windmill Village. During this change, Dadan also slowly realized that if it wasn't for Skyler's mandatory general requirements, maybe she still looks like that now.

If you want to change clothes for Ace and Luffy, you have to use the money left by Garp and Skyler, but now you don’t need it. Not only do you have the money to afford clothes, you can even buy them yourself for two, no, three children weaving new clothes.

Therefore, seeing Skyler at this time, she also showed a sincere smile.

A few people chatted and laughed, and Makino occasionally brought them a plate of barbecue, which was to let them pad their stomachs before the party started.

The three of Ace also ran in and out, constantly showing Skyler what they bought with Skyler's money. After all, Skyler gave them a larger denomination of Bailey this time than before.

In the past, Skyler used to fool them with Baileys of 1,000 Baileys, but this time they took 10,000 Baileys directly, so they found out that it took a long time to buy a lot of things and didn't finish spending them.

"Boom~"

The door of the tavern was knocked open again, and the three children ran in in a hurry. Dadan turned around and wanted to teach them a lesson. After all, he had told the three of them countless times to be polite, but

Dadan, who turned his head, was stunned, because the three children were actually holding several ice creams in their hands at this time, and everyone else looked back at Ace, Sabo and Luffy at this time.

The swelling on Ace's forehead has subsided at this time, which shows that his body is also very resilient. He looked at several people and said, "Grandpa! Grandpa Zefa! Dadan! Auntie! Sister Makino! The old man and the village chief! I invite you eat ice cream!"

"Haha~haha~"

Garp laughed, grabbed two ice creams, and said, "Your Grandpa Zefa can't eat ice cream, so I ate it for him!"

Zefa really can't eat ice cream. After all, he will cough easily when he eats frozen things, but he doesn't eat it, but Garp can't make decisions for him. Zefa suddenly asked coldly: "What did you call me just now?!"

"Grandpa Zefa."

Garp answered without hesitation, and Zefa showed a wicked smile and said, "Hey~"

Garp was stunned for a second, then his face turned red, he stuffed two ice creams into his mouth, and shouted vaguely: "You old bastard!"

As he said that, an old fist hit Zefa, Zefa easily dodged, the smile on his face seemed to return to the smile of that carefree child fifty years ago.

The blow failed, and Karp didn't bother to do it. After all, they are all very old, and it would be too stingy to care about ethics.

But the generous Karp still feels very angry!

Fortunately, it was the ice cream from Ace, which slightly relieved Garp's inner anger and did not continue to explode. Although his mouth was frozen because he ate two at a time, he couldn't feel the taste, but Garp was still very happy.

This was the first time Ace and the others thought about their grandpa. Skyler also took the ice cream from Sabo at this time, and pinched Sabo's face with the other hand.

The pain on his face made Sabo burst into tears, but seeing Skyler's "goodwill" smile, he thought it was just that he was too weak, after all.

When Sabo used to feel that he was more flexible than his peers, even some adults, but after coming here, he found that not only could he not beat Ace, who looked about his age.

Even Luffy, who is two years younger than him and who occasionally staggers when running, can't beat him. This makes Sabo feel weak, and it's normal for a weak self to feel pain when pinched?

And as a man, as a person who will go to sea as a free pirate in the future, Sabo was strong and did not cry.

Several people handed out the ice cream in their hands, and just about to go out to continue playing, Makino said: "Ace, Sabo, don't go out, dinner will start soon."

As for why it is only called Ace and Sabo, not Luffy? Because Luffy is a follower now, he will follow wherever Ace and Sabo are.

If one of them stays in place and the other goes out to play, he will go to the person who is playing, so Makino told Ace and Sabo not to run out.

When Ace and Sabo heard the words, they rubbed their stomachs, and Ace said, "Dinner? But I'm so full now!"

"Me too."

The two of them just ate and ate along the way, and the three children barely ate up to 30,000 Baileys. At this time, their stomachs were already full, and they couldn't eat dinner at all.

Instead, Lu Fei patted his stomach and said, "I think I can still eat a lot!"

"Haha~ Eat more, you will become stronger in the future!"

Zefa smiled and touched Luffy's head. After all, this is the grandson of an old friend. Even people who treat people equally will unintentionally favor those close to them.

After receiving Zefa's praise, Lu Fei's smile became even bigger. Zefa continued: "Your grandpa and aunt are so strong because they can eat, so they are so strong!"

"Really?!" *3

The three children shouted in unison. At this moment, Garp and Skyler, who were competing for the barbecue, turned their heads, and the faces of the two with round cheeks like hoarding hamsters were still a little dazed.

Did someone call me just now? !

By the way, Zefa calls himself grandpa/aunt!

The two swallowed the food, beating their chests and feet in regret! I actually missed a good opportunity to take advantage of Zefa!

Zefa also came to his senses at this time, and let out a long sigh of relief. Fortunately, the two of them were busy eating, and their heads were not very bright, otherwise, they would lose their lives in the evening!

After reacting, Zefa became more careful, for fear that the two bastards, the old and the young, would take advantage of him, so he spoke extremely rigorously and did not give the slightest chance.

Soon, dinner began. Ace and Sabo, who said their stomachs were already full, unknowingly ate a lot of roast lamb, but they said they could still eat a lot of Luffy, but they couldn't really eat it. how much.

As the mutton was eliminated, Makino brought a cake, placed it in front of Ace, and lit a candle. Ace was a little dazed, and Makino explained: "You can make a wish, and then blow out the candle, so you Your wish will come true!"

"Yeah?!"

Ace was a little surprised, it was the first time he had heard of such a statement, he rubbed his hands excitedly, looked at the birthday cake, then glanced at Skyler, he remembered what Skyler had told him about his father A little bit of information, said aloud:

"I want to become the strongest navy! Make up for my father's regret that he didn't become a navy!"

"Huh~"

After finishing speaking, Ace blew out the candle with joy on his face. Sabo looked at the dim candle wick that had not been completely extinguished, and said, "Then I will become the strongest pirate! Defeat Ace!"

"Huh~"

After finishing speaking, he also blew out the wick of the candle, and there was laughter in the tavern. Only Garp and Skyler looked at each other, then shrugged and scratched their heads, with a helpless and bewildered expression .

It turns out that it is the regret of One Piece that he failed to become a navy? !
