Chapter 2 Dick
"no……"
bump.
A huge fireball burned the pirate, causing him to scream.
"Okay, you can inspect the goods now. I'm short on time." Dick clapped his hands.
The soldier nodded blankly.
After confirming that Dick was not a pirate, he took out the bounty notice, carefully identified it, and transferred him to prison.
After completing the whole process, it took an hour.
The four pirate groups have a total bounty of 108 million Baileys.
Gee tut.
Dick was disappointed.
Is this still famous in the East China Sea?
A small village, right?
When the commander of the naval base learned about this, he enthusiastically invited Dick to join the navy.
As the head of the navy base, he has a vision that is not comparable to that of an ordinary pirate. He knows that there are many monsters in the world.
We also know that the thing that can make a person emit fire is most likely the legendary secret treasure, the Devil Fruit.
A person with special abilities is recruited by himself.
Thinking of this possibility, the base commander became excited.
Even in the Navy Headquarters, people with special abilities are extremely rare.
Not to mention it is in the small East China Sea.
To this, Dick firmly said no.
Are you kidding? Ever since the story of the Celestial Dragons slaughtering an entire country in three years was exposed, the navy has become a complete joke.
The middle and lower level navy officers who are unaware of the situation can still talk about it.
For example, Smoger.
The high-ranking navy officers, even those with better reputations such as Zephyr, Garp, and Crane, lost their filter in Dick's eyes.
I don't ask you to oppose him, but you don't even dare to quit the navy.
What, if you quit the navy, you can’t protect the people and fight pirates?
When bounty hunters are dead?
So, the Navy? Bullshit.
The base commander was disappointed for a long time.
"By the way, uncle, do you know where Shimotsuki Village is?"
"Frost Moon Village?" The base commander pondered, he seemed to have heard of this village somewhere.
Take out the map and look at it carefully.
"It's not in my defense zone, but a logistics ship carrying supplies will pass by there in two weeks."
"Can you take me there?"
"Okay, what are you going there for?"
"Go practice kendo."
"The Naval Academy can also..."
"I don't want to be restricted. I want to be a pirate hunter."
The base commander was helpless.
No matter how he persuaded him, Dick just wouldn't agree to join the Navy.
Moreover, "not wanting to be restricted" sounds like a pirate's idea, no matter how you look at it.
"Forget it. He has already said that he will be a pirate hunter. I must be overthinking it." The base commander thought to himself.
Besides, even if there were any omissions, Vice Admiral Garp often vacations in the East China Sea.
It's not dangerous.
"Boss, here's your meal money." Dick handed over Bailey.
"Thank you, thank you." The boss was overjoyed.
I never thought I could actually receive money from pirates.
"By the way, boss, I'll give you another 5 Baileys. I want to ask you for a favor."
"You tell me, I will definitely help if I can." The boss put Bailey down calmly.
"Here are the short stories I wrote. Hang them on the wall and recommend them to everyone who comes to the restaurant."
The boss took a look.
It's about holy fire, Roger and the like.
Simply put, it is the story of how Roger became the Pirate King.
Title: The Road to Pirate King
In the past, Roger was just an ordinary person, a loser in the town, looked down upon by others, and his fiancée broke off the engagement with him.
His parents beat and scolded him, and his relatives looked down on him. So what made Roger, a good-for-nothing, turn around and reach the pinnacle of his life, becoming the Pirate King?
Why is Roger so powerful?
What exactly is the great secret treasure One Piece?
It is the divine fire.
Dick simply grafted the exciting writing of his previous life, with emphasis on a certain amateurish novel "Fights Break Sphere", onto Roger.
Not to mention, in this era of uncertainty at sea and a lack of entertainment industry, amateur writing still has a large market.
In other words, it is because Xiaobai's method is simple, crude and does not require much brainpower that it can be accepted by the common people.
Whether it is the Eastern storytelling or the Western knight and princess.
At least, the boss soon became addicted to it.
This was a completely new version he had never seen before.
"Cough cough."
"Oh," the boss put down the manuscript and patted his chest repeatedly.
"No problem. I'll take care of this."
A smile appeared on Dick's lips.
This book is of great use to him.
Dick is a time traveler. He was once an ordinary office worker and a small town test-taker.
Then, when I was staying up late reading comics, suddenly, the computer exploded and I traveled through time.
Became a 12-year-old boy.
Alone, on a deserted island, powerless, with no wilderness survival experience. In the world of One Piece.
Just ask how to live?
Fortunately, there is always a way out. At Dick's feet, there is a strange fruit with a flame pattern on it.
It looks like a pitaya, with an orange-red spherical fruit with spiral patterns on the top. The fruit stalk is green with a vortex at one end and a flame at the other end, and the skin is made up of countless small flame-shaped spiral fruit patterns.
Plus the many 10-meter-thick giant trees around, the endless sea in the distance, and the memories in my mind.
Fuck, that’s right, it’s the world of One Piece, a world full of darkness and despair.
The characteristics of the fruit at Dick's feet are too obvious. It should be the Flame-Flame Fruit that even dogs are said to eat.
So the question is, on this deserted island with no village in sight and no land around, there is a natural-type Flame-Flame Fruit in your hand, should you eat it?
Of course you have to eat it.
Let’s get through this hurdle first.
After eating the Flame-Flame Fruit, Dick finally had the right to survive on the deserted island and became the overlord of the island.
At least the wild beasts on the island were no match to him.
Train, get stronger, light fires and cigarettes, and wait to go to sea.
20 days later, Dick met the Four Pirates.
……
Within two weeks, Dick repeatedly asked the base commander for specific information about training, the East China Sea, the navy, and pirates under the pretext of curiosity.
After all, this is a real world. With only Dick's superficial understanding of his previous life, if he really believed it, he would surely die.
For example, meteorological information such as ocean currents and sea breezes.
When sailing on the sea, ships and weather are extremely important.
There are also merchant ships.
In the great pirate era, many merchant ships sailing abroad would become merchant ships if they encountered the navy or were unable to defeat them, and would become pirate ships if they encountered pirates or other weak targets.
Most merchants can switch between pirates and merchants seamlessly.
In other words, given the geographical conditions of the pirate world, those who can and dare to go out to sea are not good citizens in essence.
The good people all farm and do business on the island, working as profiteers.
For example, sailing on the sea is actually quite boring.
It is far from as gorgeous and romantic as in the comics.
Imagine that for ten days or half a month, all you see is the sea. There is nothing but the sea.
Fresh water resources are in short supply. Forget about taking a shower. Even washing your face requires careful planning.
As for food, apart from seafood, vegetables and fruits are rare and most people are not worthy of eating them.
As the space on the ship is tight and the fuel is limited, it is best to cook less cooked food.
Therefore, the most common food is smoked meat and smoked fish.
Needless to say, medical resources are limited.
I finally met someone, damn, more than 90% chance that he is a pirate.
屮.
Anyway, Dick sincerely felt that if he went out to sea without being prepared, he would really die.
At the very least, life is unbearable.
