One Piece: How Can I Become King Of The Pirate If You Don’t Work Hard?

Chapter 166: Mission



After more than a month of practice, everyone has the blessing of the Experience Piggy Bank, and their strength has increased significantly.

After awakening his Armament Haki, Kuro, who was already close to the Bronze limit, truly reached the Silver level.

After Gin gained Devil Fruit, his improvement speed was even more exaggerated. He was only one step slower than Kuro and has now reached the Silver level as well.

Zoro and Sanji's strengths have steadily improved, moving towards the upper limit of the Bronze level. 

Van Augur, as well as the Nyaban Brothers and Gaza, who stayed in Raven Harbor, have also reached the Bronze level.

According to Gawain's prediction, it won't be long before all of his key cadres will be exposed to Haki.

For a moment, Gawain was a little troubled. After all, what he had was just some experience. It could help Kuro awaken Haki, but it might not be applicable to everyone else.

Gawain couldn't help but think of the Marines and the World Government.

"Whether it's physical skills or Haki, the World Government has the Marines and the CP organization's successive masters summarizing them. After eight hundred years, their internal accumulation has reached an exaggerated level."

"There must be a way to assist in mastering Haki."

"And most pirates are wild like me."

Gawain gradually realized that this background was the gap between the World Government and the vast majority of pirates.

He couldn't help but sigh and began to think about how to get Haki's training method from the Marines.

After some thinking, Gawain still hadn't found the corresponding solution, so he could only focus on himself for the time being.

"Now I can only rely on myself."

Gawain took out a pen and paper and began to write down his experience with Armament Haki and Observation Haki on paper.

Time flies, and it gradually deepens into the night.

Gawain stretched instinctively, looked out the window, and the corner of his mouth couldn't help but twitch.

Because Kuro and others were still training on the deck, the sweat flowing on the ground had formed a layer of pure white salt.

Damn it!

These leeks are really desperate!

But he didn't know.

At this moment, everyone was captured by the ever-increasing pleasure and was completely addicted to it.

This thing is worse than taking drugs.

The key is that it did harm their body but made their bodies stronger.

As the sea breeze howled.

The group practiced until late at night, but they appeared on the deck again just as the sky was getting light.

Gawain was once worried that these people would die from overwork.

They are so fucking awesome!

If other people saw this, they would definitely think that everyone on this ship had a problem with their brains.

At the same time, at the Red Rose Harbor.

In a warehouse, Rob Lucci's face was extremely pale, with several obvious gunshot wounds on his chest, and he looked extremely miserable.

Kalifa was leaning over him, tending to his wounds.

She used tweezers to remove the bullets that had penetrated into Rob Lucci's body one by one and then used gunpowder to stop the bleeding.

Recalling the experiences of the past few days, there was a look of disbelief in her eyes: "It's just an undercover mission. Is it really necessary for the higher-ups to go to this extent?!"

Recalling her experiences over the past few days, Kalifa showed a lingering fear on her face.

She had done many similar things before, but never to the extent she did now, where even the Marines were dispatched under the instruction of the World Government.

The hunt against them is a real hunt, the kind that can really cost them their life if they are not careful.

The wounds on Lucci's body were inflicted by a Vice-Admiral marine.

Thinking of this, Kalifa gritted her teeth and said: "If this continues, we may die at the hands of our own people before we even reach our goal."

Seeing that Lucci was silent, Kalifa stopped talking and focused her attention on the tweezers in her hand.

As the bullets were taken out of Rob Lucci's body, his face became paler and paler, but the coldness in his eyes did not waver at all.

The sharp pain, like a blunt sword cutting flesh, did not change his expression much.

As the strongest genius in CP9 in the past eight hundred years, he is also the most terrifying killing machine cultivated by the World Government. 

Rob Lucci is not only cruel to his enemies but also to himself.

Snap!

The last blood-stained bullet was taken out of Lucci's body.

Only then did Kalifa breathe a sigh of relief.

Lucci also spoke at this moment, his tone still as cold and hard as before: "We can never be too careful on this mission."

"The combat power displayed by White Knight Gawain alone is already at the monster level. Not only the former Warlord, Hanafuda, but even Zephyr, a former admiral, was defeated by him." 

"To deceive such a person, we have to go to this extent."

"More importantly, according to the intelligence we received, he was chased by a Lieutenant rank marine from the East Blue half a year ago. This means that in just half a year, his strength has reached its current level."

"Give him a few more years, and maybe he'll become another emperor-level pirate. The New World can no longer accommodate such a person."

"We need to be the last line of defense. If he really wants to enter the New World and fight those monsters, we need to make him disappear."

"But if he is really obedient, he will be a sharp sword in the hands of the World Government."

"A sword that is fast enough to balance the four emperors!"

Kalifa was stunned, and for a moment, she felt that this task was extremely ridiculous: "Lucci."

"I know you are very strong, but I have to admit that there is still a big gap between you and a monster like this."

"With our strength alone…"

Lucci's expression remained unchanged, and he said: "There are many ways to kill a person, from a lover's sword to a terminal illness."

"Even someone as strong as Roger had to surrender himself because of illness. Isn't the once-powerful Whitebeard now old and seriously ill?"

"Force is the most costly and last resort."

"But according to Spandam, all we need to do now is monitor the movements of the White Knight Pirate."

Kalifa was slightly stunned, but then she understood why she had been chosen for this mission.

The education she received since childhood has already made her realize that justice and mission are paramount, even if she has to sacrifice her own body in the end.

"I see."

The conversation between the two stopped here, and the noise in the warehouse suddenly became quieter.

Soon after, even the sunlight coming in through the cracks gradually dimmed.

The marines wandering around the harbor gradually left after searching in vain.

A few days later.

At dusk, the almost red glow shone into the harbor, making the seawater appear red.

As the water rises and falls, the surface of the sea seems to be filled with countless bright red rose petals.

This is also the origin of the name Red Rose Harbor.

Red Rose Harbor is a relatively neutral harbor.

In the past, not only regular marines but even many pirates would anchor their ships here.

However, the Red Rose Harbor now seems a bit desolate, with only a few merchant ships anchored here.

When Gawain and his companions arrived here, they only saw an empty harbor.

In many places, there were still traces of shelling, and there were even a few wreckages of ships that had not yet completely sunk in the harbor.

If it weren't for the Eternal Pose in Nami's hand pointing here accurately, Gawain would even suspect that he had come to the wrong place.
