Chapter 11 Zoro joins the gang (please read) (page 12)
"Straw Hat Pirates? Trainer?"
Zoro frowned and asked in confusion: "Why have I never heard of your names?"
Although he is not a professional bounty hunter, he still thinks that he has a certain understanding of the nearby pirate groups.
With the audacity of Red and Luffy to randomly break into the naval base, there was no way he hadn't heard of them.
However, in the face of Sauron's doubts, Chihong smiled calmly and replied: "That's normal."
"After all, who said this was our second day at sea!"
"What!? The next day!?"
Zoro was slightly startled, and then the corner of his mouth twitched: "You guys dared to break into the naval base and release the prisoners just after leaving the sea. Do you think you will live longer?!"
"Haha~ It's just a naval base, it's not as serious as you said."
Chihong laughed nonchalantly, and then added:
"Actually, to be precise, it has not been 24 hours since we went to sea!"
“It’s not an exaggeration to say it’s our first day at sea.”
"But I believe..."
"In the future, the name of the Straw Hat Pirates will definitely be resounding throughout the world!!!"
"Are you right, Luffy?"
Red tilted her head and looked at Luffy.
When Luffy heard this, he immediately threw away the rope in his hand, raised his arms high, and shouted confidently:
"Of course!!!"
"I am the man who wants to become the Pirate King!!!"
"you……"
Zoro blinked, looked at Luffy who seemed to be in a bad mental state, and then cast a doubtful look at the inexplicably confident Akira.
"Have you always been like this?!"
"Maybe." Chihong smiled and reassured:
"There is no way, our captain's character is like this."
"Since you can't change, you can only get used to it slowly!"
"How can I get used to this!?"
"and many more!"
"Our captain?"
Zoro's expression froze, "Hey! When did I promise you to become a pirate!?"
Snapped!
There was a crisp sound.
I saw Chihong suddenly put his hands on Zoro's shoulders, then approached him and said:
"Give up resistance, Zoro."
"A guy who is attracted by Luffy can't run away, just like me!"
"I even doubted that I had to go to sea with him because of the aura of his protagonist..."
"Protagonist halo?" Sauron said that he didn't understand what Chi Hong was talking about.
But Chihong waved her hand and Feng Qingyun said calmly: "Don't worry about those details."
"Anyway, you will be on the navy's blacklist soon. Even if you don't become a pirate, you won't be much better."
"Come with us!"
"The small East China Sea really limits your development!"
"Come to sea with us, go to the Grand Line, and see the real world!!!"
Red's tone suddenly became serious, and she looked seriously into Zoro's eyes.
"Your goal should be to become the world's greatest swordsman, right?"
"Have you heard my story?" Sauron asked.
"No! It's your face with stories written all over it!"
Zoro: "???"
"Hahaha, just kidding."
Chihong laughed loudly: "Anyway, if you get on the pirate ship, you can't even think about running away!"
"The number one combatant of the Straw Hat Pirates must be you!"
"Correspondingly, let me help you realize your dreams and ambitions!!!"
"Help me? Just you?"
Zoro frowned.
Although he only thought that he was very powerful after wandering around the East China Sea, he was not so naive that he thought that his dream would be easy to realize.
What's more, he didn't feel a trace of the swordsman's aura on Chihong's body.
"It's not a good habit to talk big." He looked at Chihong and Luffy carefully.
Chihong responded with a smile: "Have you forgotten my identity?"
"Although I'm still a newbie, I'm still a trainer!!!"
"Trainer? What is that!?" Zoro asked curiously.
His red eyes flashed, feeling that this would be an excellent opportunity for Sauron to recognize him as a trainer.
But just when he was about to answer, Luffy suddenly interrupted the conversation between the two.
"Chihong, someone is coming!"
"Ok?"
Chi Hong's tone paused, and then he immediately followed Luffy's gaze and looked behind him.
I saw a guy with a blond slicked back hair and a distinctive butt and chin, escorted by two gun-toting marines, walking towards their direction.
The person who came was clearly the son of Mengka who had made an agreement with Sauron to tie him here - Bellumeb!
At this time, he looked exactly like the foolish son of the nouveau riche. He pinched his collar coquettishly and took a high step.
"Hey, there's a lot of noise downstairs, what should I think happened?"
"It turns out that the pirate hunter who swore so much would actually break his promise and ask his companions to put you down in advance!?"
"It seems you are ready to go to jail and be punished!"
After saying that, Belumeb suddenly turned his eyes to Red and Luffy, and said in that ugly and sharp drake voice:
"Hey! And you two guys! Don't you know that in Branch 153, prison robbery is a capital crime!?"
"Death penalty!?" Chihong snorted, a look of anger flashed in his eyes.
Because of Belumeb's interruption, he had no choice but to find another opportunity to explain the meaning of trainer to Zoro later.
Red slowly turned her gaze to Bell Mabel.
"First, I don't say hello!"
"Second... Zoro's saber must have been snatched away by you, right?"
He suddenly said to Luffy:
"Luffy, deal with those two marines, and then ask this guy to help us get Zoro's saber back!"
"no problem!"
Luffy grinned.
"shave!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a slight puff of smoke quickly rose from his feet.
But Luffy's figure completely disappeared from the place at this moment!
"What!?"
Zoro, who didn't see why Luffy was missing, was shocked, and then heard overlapping screams coming from his side.
He immediately changed his gaze and saw...
The two navy soldiers who had been following Belumeb just now all collapsed to the ground.
And next to them, it was Luffy who had disappeared!
"How is it possible?! Is this some kind of magic?!" Sauron shouted in surprise.
"This is not magic~"
Seeing Zoro's surprised expression, Chihong, who felt that something was wrong, quickly showed a meaningful smile and took the opportunity to strike a chord with Zoro while it was still hot:
