Chapter 104 An Unexpected Surprise (45)
"Goodbye, uncle!!!"
"Wait for our good news!!!"
"One Piece, I'm determined!!!"
On the Merry, which was far away from the Twin Capes, Luffy stood at the stern of the ship and shouted to Kurokas.
Next to Meili, Rab's huge eyes were also flashing with crystal tears.
There was a pop.
Rab's teardrops fell into the sea, just like a cannonball landing next to the Mellie. A roaring wave was instantly raised, causing the entire hull of the Mellie to tilt.
Fortunately, Red was above the deck at this time.
Feeling the tilt under his feet, he quickly summoned a wave from the opposite direction to stabilize the Meili's hull.
"Phew, it's so dangerous!"
Red hissed softly and turned to look at the huge Rab.
Seeing that it was still crying sadly, he couldn't help but remind Rab.
"Oh, forget it." Chi Hong lamented in his heart.
Isn't it just a bit harder?
Anyway, for him, it’s not a once-in-a-lifetime experience!
However.
From a perspective that the Straw Hats did not see, the sheep's head on the bow of the Meili was also inexplicably covered with a nervous bead of sweat.
As the waves crashed, it quickly disappeared.
In this way, accompanied by Rab, the huge island whale, the Straw Hats began to move towards their next destination, Whiskey Mountain.
And because they have been too busy recently, Sauron and others, who have not practiced daily for a long time, have once again entered a state of life-threatening cultivation.
Everything seemed to be on track.
The only thing that makes Chihong feel a little dissatisfied is...
Although he explained a lot to Rab last night about his identity as a trainer, it might be because of the language barrier.
No matter how hard he explained it, it was still difficult for Labu to fully understand Chihong's identity as a "trainer".
After all, Rab is not a human being and has many cognitive differences from humans.
And this also forced Chi Hong to put aside the matter of taking Labu to adventure in the Pokémon world.
"It seems that if we want Rab to fully integrate into the Straw Hat Pirates, we need at least one animal language translator."
Chi Hong, who was in his exclusive den at the stern of the ship, started to think while controlling the waves.
After all, so far, no one in the entire Straw Hat Pirates, except Luffy, a weirdo, can understand what Rab's cry is actually expressing.
And even Luffy could only understand Rab's emotions vaguely, and could not fully express his meaning to others.
Now that everyone is already a partner, this has become an urgent problem that the Straw Hats need to solve.
Fortunately, the candidate for the translator was already prepared.
And it’s not far ahead of their route!
That person is...
He looks cute, but his body is different from ordinary people - Joe Beard Chopper! ! !
Chopper, identity doctor, pet, emergency food.
Holding a bounty of 100 yuan, but fighting for billions!
Every time she saw these words in a video on Station B, Chihong couldn’t help but post a comment:
[This era is called Qiao Huzi! ! ! 】
"The language barrier is really a flaw."
"It seems that we can only consider letting Labu become a Pokémon after inviting Chopper on board."
Red heart made a decision.
not to mention……
Yesterday, he spent a long time talking, but it was not that he gained nothing at all.
It's just that this harvest has a somewhat outrageous nature in it.
Thinking of this, Chi Hong subconsciously opened the machine interface and checked the last one in the Pokémon list.
Above it, a portrait of a gray-haired man with two cigars in his mouth jumped out.
Yes!
This person who inexplicably appears in the Robot Pokémon list is the captain of the Navy Headquarters—Smorg!
Because he was too curious about Chi Hong, Smoker had been secretly observing Chi Hong since yesterday afternoon.
In addition, Chihong explained trainer-related matters to Rabu several times, and did not avoid or hide them much.
So much so that Smoker recognized the identity of Red's trainer and became a member of his Pokémon.
In fact, if Red Red said this to Smoker face to face...
Smoker may not believe it so completely.
Precisely because he overheard the news through unfair means, Smoker was convinced of the identity of the red trainer!
In addition, he has not yet mastered Armament Haki, so Smoker inevitably has some thoughts in his heart, such as "If Chihong trains me, it might be even more effective than Teacher Zefa."
that's all……
He successfully put himself in danger and accidentally came into contact with the biggest secret of Red and the Straw Hat Pirates.
Even the moment Red saw him in the Pokémon list...
That was also shocking!
[Pokémon: Smoker]
【Level: 41】
[Gender: convex]
[Character: Impetuous (no increase or decrease)]
[Attribute: evil, ghost]
[Characteristics: white smoke (not affected by enemy moves that reduce one's combat ability)]
[Skill: None]
[Experience value: 0/5055]
…
【HP: 114】
[Physical Attack: 102]
【Physical defense: 114】
[Special Attack: 101]
[Special Defense: 114]
[Speed: 54]
…
The above is the attribute list of Smoker in the machine.
From his attributes, it can be seen that his hidden race value is not high.
It may even be worse than Nami and Usopp.
Although his level has reached 41, his speed is only an astonishing 54 points!
You know, even Usopp, who is only level 20, has a speed of 63 points.
No wonder in the original plot, the Straw Hat Pirates were always able to escape from his hands.
After entering the Grand Line, they never won a fight.
Of course, although his talent may not be as good as the members of the Straw Hat Pirates, Smoker's attribute configuration really made Akane's eyes light up.
Ghost attribute, this is a rare attribute that he has never seen among the nearly 100 pirates in the Clown Buggy Pirates.
Compared to the quirky fairies and the dragons that are kings of battle...
The ghost type, which also uses the race name as its attribute, has more strange and mysterious moves.
In addition, many of the evil-attributed moves are mainly used to play tricks on and suppress the enemy.
If the moves are properly matched, Smoker may be able to change his current dilemma of being useless.
The only problem is...
No matter how much Red admires Smoker's justice, he is still on the side of the Navy.
Red doesn't want to reveal his background to the Navy and the World Government so soon.
Even Smoker is still reliable.
But the other party has appeared in the Pokémon list. If such a rare opportunity is not taken, it will be a pity.
In an instant, Red's eyes flashed with thought.
He originally had no idea about Smoker, but at this moment, he inexplicably began to think about whether it is possible to pull him to the Straw Hat Pirates' camp.
After all, in the original timeline, after the Battle of Tokushima, he openly said that he was the enemy of the Straw Hat Pirates, but in his heart he had already believed in Luffy.
If he was asked to choose between Luffy and the Celestial Dragons, he would definitely swing his fist at the Celestial Dragons without hesitation!
And this is the main reason why Red admires him.
"Hiss~! Thinking about it this way, Smoker seems to be more reliable than my second uncle!"
Red suddenly looked at Smoker, but just met his peeping eyes.
For a moment, the two looked at each other.
The guilty Smoker instantly moved his eyes away.
Red looked at his back and rubbed his chin with a smile.
"It seems... it's really worth it!"
It is impossible to make Smoker completely give up his identity as a navy and become a pirate.
But if he just wants him to form a deep friendship with the Straw Hat Pirates, or if he agrees with the Straw Hat Pirates from the bottom of his heart...
Then there are too many places to operate!
After all, with the morality of the World Government, it is not too easy to make a righteous person disillusioned with it!
"It seems... I can't let you go in a short time..."
"Colonel Smoker!"
Chihong suddenly smiled secretly in his heart.
At the same time, Smoker, who turned around, shuddered inexplicably.
"Hiss~!"
"Why do I feel like I'm being watched!?"
"... Is it my illusion?!"
