Chapter 15 The Test from Garp
Although it is a dangerous world of pirates, at their age, most people have not even had a decent weapon, let alone a real sword and gun to fight people desperately.
However, the guy in front of them, whom they regarded as a relationship household before, obviously looked harmless to humans and animals, and even looked like a disabled person before boarding the ship. The lives under his hands were actually more than most formal navy many!
Knowing Wood's true face, the cute new marines are quite fortunate at the moment. When they were still on the ship, they estimated Zefa's relationship and did not provoke this evil star, otherwise now...
With Zefa's embarrassment, Wood could clearly feel that the eyes around him had changed, and Wood's expression also turned into a bitter face.
This is completely different from the character set he wanted to maintain before. He must find a way to reverse the situation and let everyone know themselves again!
Admiral Zefa actually overrated the prize, I am only a child, how could I kill the vicious pirate who offered a reward of 20 million Baileys.
The pirates were killed with the assistance of the townspeople on the island. The pirate captain was also a paper tiger, and he was seriously injured. I just got lucky and made up for it.
Compared with Zefa's words, Wood's explanation is obviously more convincing.
After all, Wood was only sixteen years old, and the pirate was not a piece of wood. It was really hard for them to believe that the shy and sunny boy in front of him could kill all the pirates.
But even if, as you said, you just took advantage of it later, at your age, daring to kill so many pirates is already very remarkable.
Since Zefa admires you so much, let me see if you are as strong as you say.
Before Wood could react, almost at the same time Garp finished speaking, Wood already felt that he was enveloped by a powerful aura.
And the source of this aura is the naval hero Monkey D. Garp in front of him!
As a vice admiral and a well-known hero of the navy, Garp is really serious about a recruit who just joined the navy!
Garp does not have the domineering aura of a king, and the power he uses now is not a domineering power.
But after fighting and fighting in the sea for so many years, even if Garp does not have the dominant domineering look, he still has a strong momentum.
What enveloped Wood at this moment was Karp's own powerful aura and his killing intent towards Wood.
Because the aura emitted is like the color of a king, it cannot be targeted at a certain object, so when Garp exudes his own aura and killing intent, other people around him can also feel it.
Seeing such a reckless Garp, Zefa immediately blocked his tall body in front of a group of recruits, and used his own breath to block this wave of terrifying breath oppression for them.
While the other recruits were escorted by Zefa, Wood's luck was not so good.
Because of the reason why he was named and listed before, Wood's current position is the closest to Karp, so he is the first to bear the brunt of the sense of oppression brought by this wave of killing intent.
As unlucky as him, there is also Major General Kadalu who is also not far away from him. This guy is only a few steps away from him, and now he is also the focus of attention.
Some people think that Karp is very kind, but Wood thinks that should be relative terms, a guy who can throw his grandson who is less than ten years old into the jungle, can go there kindly!
The killing intent like a flood surged towards the front, and at this moment, Wood only felt that his body fell into an ice cellar for an instant.
There is obviously nothing on the body, but now Wood feels that his shoulders are so heavy, and the strong sense of oppression makes Wood's consciousness start to blur, and his feet start to swing involuntarily.
Every pore of the body is instinctively warning the body when feeling the surrounding breath.
Like the natural suppression of prey at the top of the food chain, Wood's instinct as a creature sensed danger, and after receiving such a signal, his brain transmitted it to every nerve in his body.
Garp in front of him still maintained the same standing posture as before, and was still sending senbei to his mouth constantly.
However, the feeling that the other party brought to Wood was completely different from just now. The old man was still the same old man, but Wood felt at this moment that the other party was like a towering mountain, which could not be reached at a glance!
The heavy pressure forced Wood's body to bend over slowly. When he was under the indescribable pressure, Wood also thought about giving up resistance altogether and lying flat on the ground, which was also in line with the setting he created at the beginning.
However, my intuition tells me that if I really do this now, I will never be able to make progress in the way of the sword, and becoming a sword master will become a luxury.
In the way of swordsmanship, if you do not advance, you will retreat. Only when you have the courage to challenge the strong can your state of mind and swordsmanship be sublimated, just like Sauron challenged Hawkeye, and Hawkeye challenged Whitebeard.
It's okay to be a little cowardly at ordinary times, but if you face a retreat now, Wood's intuition tells himself that he will regret it in the future.
His back was completely drenched in cold sweat, and the ground under his feet was even more deeply dented by Wood at this moment. However, even so, the curved arc of Wood's feet struggling to resist was getting bigger and bigger.
Just when Wood lost consciousness because of the viscous killing intent that almost turned into substance around him, Zefa on the side finally couldn't stand it anymore, and called for a stop.
Karp, it's alright, the kid's injury is just right, you'll make his injury relapse.
The terrifying aura came and went quickly, and the murderous aura was so thick that it was almost suffocating, like the moment the tide receded, Wood's body suddenly sat down on the ground irresistibly, and gasped heavily.
He obviously didn't do anything, but now Wood feels that what happened just now is more dangerous than when he was fighting Iron Arm Cook before.
In just a few minutes, Wood felt extremely tired, both physically and mentally.
Good guy, this brat really has something, he was able to stay awake under the lock of the old man's aura just now.
If you have this kind of capacity, your current strength will not be mentioned for the time being, but I can be sure that your achievements in the future should be quite impressive.
Wood, who was slumped on the ground and gasping for breath, also showed a puzzled expression when he heard Garp's words.
From his own feeling, his performance just now should have been quite unbearable, why did he still get such a high evaluation.
Garp, who saw Wood's puzzled face, also knew what he was thinking, so he raised his head and motioned Wood to look behind him.
