More than two hundred naval soldiers were standing on the deck, looking at the ensign who seemed to have made up his mind at the bow of the ship.
I saw that the team deputy mustered up the courage to say to the second lieutenant.
"Second Lieutenant Yinska, I...are we really going to try to visit the...legendary Saint Gowen?"
"why not!"
Yinska said without looking back.
"We are a righteous navy, and catching pirates is our mission!
In order to confirm whether the pirate named Ace was captured by Gao Wensheng and his party, I asked Gao Wensheng for instructions as a second lieutenant of the East China Sea Branch of the Navy. Is this against the rules?"
After the words fell, Yinska took a deep breath.
Behind her, listening to Yinska's words, the team deputy swallowed hard.
"Ask for instructions... You can indeed ask for instructions, but we... are our levels too low?
Even the lieutenant generals and generals of our headquarters must kneel in front of that man, we...
If we interrupt rashly, will we really not be sent to the new world to feed thieves?"
"What are you talking about!"
The deputy's words made Iska frown, and she said seriously to the soldiers behind her.
"Even if we are sent to a new world, we are just enforcing justice in a new place!
As for whether the Gawain Saint Assembly will receive us...
Most likely, Gao Wensheng will not pay attention to us. How can a big man like him meet little people like us?
As a second lieutenant of the navy, I just tried to visit Gao Wensheng's ship, try to communicate with his ordinary soldiers, and find out the whereabouts of Ace!
We pursued Fire Fist Ace all the way from the East China Sea to the Grand Line. How could it end without any outcome like this?
No matter whether he was killed by Gao Wensheng's people or captured by Gao Wensheng.
I think, as the person directly handling the pursuit of this bandit, I am qualified to know a little bit of details!"
After the words fell, Yin Ka clenched her fists and cheered herself up.
Then, she couldn't help but look worriedly at the Black Bird in the distance.
That ship was so majestic, much higher than Yinska's small boat. The difference between their two ships was just like the difference between Yinska's status and Gawain's status.
And when Iska looked at the Blackbird, the adjutant behind her couldn't help but take a breath.
There were some things that the adjutant did not dare to say to Yinska, so the adjutant had to complain silently in his heart.
Lieutenant Commander Yinska, are you sure that the reason why you want to know Ace's whereabouts is just for the purpose of hunting...?
Just as the adjutant was complaining, in the distant sky, a black spot suddenly rushed towards Yinska's ship.
Looking at the black spot, Yinska's eyes suddenly widened, and she tightened her grip on the knife at her waist.
A moment later, black dots suddenly fell on the deck in front of Yinska.
We saw Lu Qi, wearing a black coat with a cheetah pattern embroidered on the back and a straight German military uniform, nodding to Yinska elegantly but without emotion.
"Hello, strange navy, I am Rob Luqi, the chief lieutenant of the Black Ice Platform Agency under the Holy See of Gawain!"
"Hello...hello!"
Listening to Lu Qi's introduction, Yinska swallowed hard, and then she said hello nervously.
"I...I am the training second lieutenant of the G-117 branch of the Navy's Donghai branch, Yinska."
Seeing Yinska's nervous look, Lu Qi frowned slightly and said to Yinska in a cold voice.
"Very well, Second Lieutenant Yinska, please explain your purpose of coming!"
"I came here to hunt down Supernova Fire Fist Ace. Before that, I chased Ace all the way from the East China Sea to the vicinity of the Drum Kingdom, and then lost track of Fire Fist.
When I came to Alabasta, I heard that Ace had stayed near the city of Cortlena.
Then I followed here, but I didn't see Fire Fist's ship. I only heard about... the news that Fire Fist Ace was captured by the Black Bird!
So, I...I hope to personally confirm the information about Fire Fist Ace’s capture!”
After the words fell, Yinska nervously clenched the hilt of her knife, and Lu Qi...
He frowned for a moment, then relaxed his brows slightly.
"Fire Fist Ace has joined the Black Bird and became Lord Gawain's subordinate!
As for you, since you are here to hunt him down, please leave as soon as possible!
You are no longer qualified to hunt him down!"
Having said this, Lu Qi turned around expressionlessly.
Your Excellency has told me that if these sailors have no ill intentions, then they will be invited to have lunch on the ship if they are passing by.
But they came here to capture Fire Fist Ace...
If that's the case, isn't this malice?
For a moment, if Gawain hadn't still had Gion on the ship, Lu Qi would have wanted to directly clean up the little trouble in front of him for Ace and Gawain!
On the opposite side, after listening to Lu Qi's words, Yinska let out a heavy breath.
Fortunately, fortunately, that idiot was not killed by Gao Wensheng because of his impulsiveness.
And he actually joined Gawain...
etc……?!
Yin Ka suddenly opened her big eyes, and then she asked Lu Qi eagerly.
"Ace has joined the Blackbird?!
"
"What, you have an opinion?!"
Facing Yinska's surprised question, Lu Qi pursed his lips slightly, then casually took off the coat from his body, then folded the coat and put it aside.
Then, Lu Qi gently waved his hand and continued to talk to Yinska.
"If you feel dissatisfied with anything, please shut your mouth forever!
It is your Lord's decision to let him join, and no one can go against Lord Gawain's will!"
While speaking, Lu Qi stretched out his left hand.
"Now, either leave by boat, or I don't mind sending you off in person, I..."
"Etc., etc!
!”
Listening to Lu Qi's increasingly dangerous voice, Yinska quickly raised her hand.
"I didn't mean that, I meant, I mean, I...
I would like to ask, if Ace joins the Blackbirds, what will be his identity as a pirate..."
"Hmph, even with Mr. Rayleigh's background, you can still protect him easily!
Do you think that a being as great as an adult is not qualified to protect a mere supernova?"
Lu Qi responded coldly, and then wanted to teach this ensign of the navy who did not know the heights of the world.
Unexpectedly, the moment he finished speaking, Yin Ka, opposite him, suddenly let out an excited shout.
"Really, madam...that's great!
Ace is not a pirate anymore!
Haha, I’m so happy, now we are qualified to be friends!
Sorry, Chief Lu Qi, I...Hahaha, I'm really a little excited, hehe~~~."
Having said this, Yinska let go of the handle of the knife and repeatedly waved her hands to say no to Lu Qi.
And Lu Qi......
He was silent for a moment, then gently picked up the coat he had put aside.
After stretching his clothes, Lu Qi put his coat behind him, and he immediately turned around and left.
However, when he reached the deck, he said to Yinska without looking back.
"Both I and the adults are very busy, so I'm leaving now.
As for you….
If it were in the past, if I saw a marine like you who has an inexplicable relationship with pirates, even if I am not a marine, I would definitely smash your head to pieces.
but now…….
Since you have no ill intentions, my Lord’s instruction is to invite you all to come on board for lunch!”
Having said this, Lu Qi pointed to the belly of the Black Bird in the distance without looking back.
"Just park the ship near the Black Bird, and there will naturally be a pilot boat to pick you up and board the deck."
After saying that, Lu Qi jumped up and then walked all the way back to the Black Bird.
After Lu Qi left, Yinska immediately raised her hands high.
"Wow, things have changed so fast. That brat actually caught Gao Wensheng's eyes!
Come on, come on, get ready, put on the cleanest military uniforms!
Gao Wensheng invited us to have lunch!
Helmsman, start the boat, quickly!
!”
On the side, listening to Second Lieutenant Yinska's order, her adjutant exhaled helplessly.
Don't you even want to pretend anymore, sir?
Just like that, about eight minutes later, the warship that arrived quickly stopped near a temporarily rented sampan.
On the sampan, a group of people from Baroque Works who were waiting for the login device looked at Yinska in confusion.
After a while, Valentine couldn't help but asked softly.
"There are actually people from the navy among us. It is indeed a mysterious organization. We don't even know who our own people are!"
"Why?"
Hearing the sound coming from the deck next door, Yinska couldn't help but look towards them.
"You are... bounty pirates who are hanging around in the Grand Line, you are from a working company of some sort, right?
How did you get near this ship!"
Across the way, upon hearing Yinska's words, Ben Sam immediately became energetic.
I saw him twisting his orchid fingers, using his double chin and heavy makeup like a domineering president, and said loudly to Yinska.
"If it had been in the past, the slave family would probably have run away at this time. Tsk tsk, the navy really scared the slave family to death!
But now, hum….
Now, I belong to Lord Gawain, I..."
"Shut up!"
Before Ben Sam could finish speaking, Daz Bonis put his palm across Ben Sam's neck.
“We are your lord’s subordinates’ subordinates, not your lord’s people!
If your disgrace causes us all to be executed, I will definitely chop off your head with my own hands before I die!"
After the words fell, Daz Bonis turned his head, no longer bothering to look at Ben Sam and Yinska opposite him.
As for Yinska, after hearing what Daz Bonis said, she nodded clearly.
It turns out that they, like Ace, were all recruited by the Celestial Dragon...
With all kinds of thoughts in mind, the two groups of them finally took the same set of elevators and arrived on the deck of the Black Bird.
When they walked out of the lift platform, the first thing they saw was the nearby but extremely vast rest area.
As for the look in their eyes….
Obviously there are countless people active on the deck at this moment, whether they are training, working, or playing.
But including Yinska, all of them couldn't help but cast their sights on Gawain at the first moment.
At this moment, Gawain was reading the newspaper attentively. While reading, he would say a few words from time to time. His words would be recorded by Robin and Big Bear respectively.
While he was reading the newspaper, he was chewing all kinds of meat boldly. Everyone saw that Gawain was eating happily, and the strange feeling became more and more strange.
As for Yinska….
At this time, Yinska blushed slightly, curled her lips and rolled her eyes.
Why would even a Celestial Dragon like Gao Wensheng be naked from the waist up like that idiot Ace?
But be it Ace or Gao Wensheng, most of the men with good strength have perfect muscles...
Thinking of this, Yinska finally had time to look elsewhere. After scanning her eyes, she immediately saw Ace being beaten by Rayleigh in the training ground...
Seeing this scene, Yinska was really relieved, this guy was really safe.
At the same time, Gao Wen, who was reading the newspaper, also saw the arrival of everyone through the website, so he simply put down the newspaper.
"Robin, let those who have just boarded the ship come to me.
If I didn't catch up, it would be gone, but I should have about seven minutes left now, right?"
"Indeed, sir, the time agreed between you and Mr. French is still about seven minutes and twenty seconds."
After hearing Gawain's words, Robin, the second part-time secretary who was relieving the secretary Kalifa's stress, said softly to Gawain.
After saying that, Robin turned around and left. She came to Yinska and the Baroque Working Group and said with a chuckle.
"Everyone, I am Nicole Robin, the historian of the Blackbird and one of Lord Gawain's secretaries.
You are very lucky, Lord Gawain happens to have time to meet you, please prepare the appropriate etiquette and follow me to see Lord Gawain!"
"Yes Yes Yes!"
"It's such an honor for the slave family!"
"Sheng Gao Wen is so handsome!"
"Hey, I... am I, a young second lieutenant, qualified to meet Gao Wensheng?"
"Today is such a lucky day, haha!"
The group was in an uproar for a moment, and then they packed up in a hurry.
While walking quickly in the direction of Gawain, they quickly checked their clothes.
In this way, a minute and a half later, they finally came to Gawain and saw with their own eyes from a close distance Lord Gawain, who was drinking sweet wine after dinner.
thump!
A group of people knelt on the ground in unison. At this moment, the Navy and the Baroque Working Group were actually together.
But after kneeling down, this group of people didn't know what to say.
They were so nervous that they were speechless...
At the same time, I looked at all kinds of people in front of me.
Gawain smiled and nodded.
"Get up."
Gawain waved his hand casually, and suddenly, thunder fell to the ground like running water and spread to all directions.
The next moment, everyone's legs felt numb, and then they stood up involuntarily.
Then, Gawain was the first to look at the guy in the crowd who impressed him the most.
"Von Clay, your image is indeed full of the style of the Kamabaka Kingdom.
Just stay on the ship, the officer on the ship, Big Bear, is Yin Wankov’s close friend. If there is a chance, I will let Big Bear take you to meet your idol."
"ha?!
"
Hearing these words, Ben Sam fell to his knees violently.
"You old man, even the most admired person in the slave family knows that you... wu wu wu, from now on, the slave family will really want to die for you, the gentle master, every day..."
"Ahem!
!”
Gawain quickly interrupted Fon Clay. Of course Gawain admired Xiao Feng very much for sacrificing everything for his friends and saving Luffy's life three times.
But his style...
Probably the greasy, long-faced version of Huang Xiaoming with a double chin and a face full of aunt-style heavy makeup...
Anyway, Gawain waved his hand heavily, signaling Xiao Feng to be quiet first.
Then, Gawain looked at the other people.
"Dazz Bonis, a warrior with a determined goal, from now on, follow your Mr. 0, Crocodile, and work hard.
I will see your efforts!"
"Mr. 3, Gal Dino, you, a young man, have unlimited potential. If you work hard, you might be qualified to become the deputy emperor of the Yonko Regiment."
"Miss Valentine's Day, you are much more beautiful than in the photos, come on."
"And...Miss Yinska!"
Having said this, Gawain looked at Yinska with interest.
"I heard that you are Ace's friend, so...do you want to stay with Ace forever?"
