The food served to everyone was a fruit-based meal, which neither Shandai nor Luffy was satisfied with.
But I really don’t have big chunks of meat, so I can’t blame them.
Fortunately, the sea is right next to you, so you can go fishing in the sea yourself and make a delicious seafood dinner.
Yamazaki thought about suggesting setting up a seafood processing factory, but then swallowed the words.
The earth's oceans have been badly damaged by human beings. If he said this, it would be a disaster to another planet.
When people come to this world, they have to pursue interests in order to survive, but when they can survive, it is better not to pursue interests.
If you don’t bring it with you in life, you won’t take it with you in death.
Oh, and left with a lot of infamy.
No matter how the money comes from, one thing remains the same, that is, the exploitation of workers, layer by layer.
…
At the dinner, the little cat Nami washed off the Dragon Star Thieves tattoo, carved an orange and a windmill, and officially joined the Straw Hat Thieves.
In Nami's words, without her, the Straw Hat Pirates would most likely drive the battleship directly into the prison and throw themselves into a trap.
…
After the dinner, Zoro approached Yamazaki and seriously raised the challenge.
"Challenge me?"
"Yes, I want to become the best swordsman in the universe."
"I don't use a sword."
"I know, but you are a master."
"Then you want me to give you tricks?"
"No, please don't be polite to me."
"That's it," Yamazaki scratched his head, "I don't think we can fight."
"Why?"
"Because you can't take any of my moves, and you can't cut me if I stand still."
"Is the gap between us so big?" Sauron was very discouraged.
"Let's do this. I'll take you to see the swordsmanship I know."
"ah?"
Zoro was in a trance and found himself in the starry sky, with Yamazaki next to him.
As Yamazaki slowly talks, the stars move and everything changes.
"The way I understand the sword lies in the heart and mind, not in the body, let alone moves."
"In the beginning, you learn to sword, one move at a time, just to exercise your body."
"What you think in your heart, and the choice that determines the path you take in life, is the way of the sword."
"Be as dignified as tomorrow is in the sky, or be like flies and dogs like the dark moon and the wind, or be ruthless regardless of life and death regardless of whether the sky is falling or the earth is falling, just to sharpen a sword in your chest."
One sword turned into the scorching sun, and the rays of light made people afraid to look at it, but it warmed their hearts.
A sword turned into a cold wind, which was biting to the bone. His body was numb and stiff, and his heart was even more panicked.
A sword flew across the sky, changing from large to small, difficult to distinguish with the naked eye, and then from small to large, filling the starry sky.
One sword can turn water into huge waves, one sword can turn into earth, and thousands of mountains can be turned into mountains.
A sword turned into stars, and meteors fell from the sky, gathering into comets in one blow.
A sword transformed a person, and a sword was apparently used casually, but it split the entire starry sky, and everything was reduced to nothing. Only the sword was still there, standing there silently, as if it had been there since ancient times, and would exist forever in the future.
"But these are just evolutions. I don't know which path is right and can lead to the ultimate realm of swordsmanship."
"Perhaps, there is no extreme state at all, only more."
"I only know the basics. If the basics are enough, everything will come easily. If the basics are not enough, everything will be like a mirror and a castle in the air."
"It is better to compete with nature than to compete with people. When you defeat nature and defeat the universe, no one in this universe can be your opponent."
"Before you defeat nature, you might as well take nature as your teacher first. The earth, water, wind, fire, sun, moon, and stars can be used by all things according to your will."
…
Zoro didn't know when Yamazaki left, nor did he know how long he stood at the beach.
In short, looking at the sea reflecting the stars in the sky, Zoro recalled the sword that broke through the starry sky, and couldn't help shouting and taking action.
Use all your strength to strike out with the sword.
The sea surface was split open and hit for several kilometers.
Zoro fell on the beach, smiling and breathing heavily,
With one strike of the sword, all the confusion and depression in the past seemed to be thrown away, and my heart felt very comfortable and enlightened.
Zoro knew that he had taken a very important step and saw the future path. Before he defeated this universe, he no longer had to look for the path in confusion.
There is no road more profound and grand, and no road more exciting.
As for whether you can finish the walk, don't think too much, just walk.
…
In the morning, Zoro saw Yamazaki again and wanted to bow to him as his disciple.
Yamazaki refused, saying frankly that he could not be called a master, nor could he be called a teacher. At most, he could be called a teacher.
Zoro didn't force it and just followed Yamazaki's wishes.
…
In the morning, I went to the capital to deliver news to the king.
From then on, Kokoa West became the territory of the Straw Hat Pirates.
The Straw Hat Star Pirates will leave 200 warships on Cocoa West to protect interstellar trade and planet security.
The Straw Hat Pirates do not levy a head tax. They only need 10% of the interstellar trade volume. If it is 100 million Beli, they will give 10 million Beli. There is no requirement.
Luffy wanted to say that he wouldn't charge protection money, but Nami punched him back because he was a rubber man anyway.
If you have no income, how can you buy a warship? If you don’t have a warship, how can you fight against other interstellar pirates, and how can you protect Cocoa West?
Yamazaki also asked Nami to give the king a copy of the basic training materials of Star Fleet, so that the king could provide popular education to the citizens.
If you don’t want to pay protection fees, learn to protect yourself.
The king was originally doubtful, but after seeing this, he no longer doubted it. If he hadn't really replaced him and it was a well-intentioned Star Thieves group, he wouldn't have given him the training materials.
This thing is not precious to Starfleet, but it is not that easy to get the complete version. It is not easy for outsiders to get it.
Of course, they can buy it, but the price is beyond their reach.
…
Yamazaki read the information and made a copy.
That is said to be basic training, but you can continue to improve after completing the practice.
When you can use your armed color Haki freely, you can reach the rank of general in the interstellar fleet, and there are many people in the Yuanliu who can compare with you.
Further up, you need to have talent or practice.
…
The king announced to the public that the whole planet was happy and relieved.
The king held a banquet to entertain the king, but the Straw Hat pirates stayed behind. The Tripod pirates didn't like the excitement and retreated first.
I didn’t leave, I went to the sea to fish for seafood and reward myself.
…
After playing for a day, the Tripod Bandits and the Straw Hat Bandits met up the next morning. Yamazaki was originally going to explain some things and then leave, not wanting interstellar pirates to come.
Just in time to familiarize the Straw Hat Pirates with space battles.
It's just a bit strange. The news about the change of ownership here should not have been spread yet, and since it is the territory of the Dragon Star Bandits, no one should come to rob it.
Could it be that the Evil Dragon Star Thieves said it themselves? Just for revenge?
