Pirates: Build a high wall from the East China Sea.

Chapter 11: The Great Pirate

As the Mok pirate ship sailed farther and farther away, the town of Cocoa gradually disappeared from sight. Smoker, who was leaning against the side of the pirate ship, slowly calmed down his originally irritable heart.

He took the cigar from the corner of his mouth, flicked the ash off it, then turned his head to look at Vice Admiral Garp who was still lying leisurely even on the pirate ship.

His eyebrows were slightly wrinkled.

This mission was really unexpected.

Originally, they were supposed to be here to investigate whether Captain Dante Shatcher had colluded with pirates to defraud the navy of military funds, but... the results of the investigation were indeed true, and the evidence was conclusive, so it would be enough to arrest him on the spot and put him on trial.

however.

But I never expected...

Vice Admiral Garp, who was supposed to be the person in charge of this mission, directly cooperated with that guy.

This is not the most important thing. What is even more speechless is that the naval hero actually planned to defraud the military funds of the naval headquarters together with others? !

Outrageous!

He really couldn't figure out what this naval hero was thinking.
And he had a doubt in his heart...

At this time.

Sudden.

Just as Smoker frowned and thought.

"Ahahaha~" Garp's laughter rang out.

He crossed his legs and rested his head on his hands, leaning back on the recliner on the Mok Pirate Ship without raising his head. He looked at the sea and said, "The mission is over. Smoker, why are you still looking sour?"

"..."

Are you qualified to ask me this?
Smoker came back to his senses and took a deep breath, but his face still changed to a serious expression, "Vice Admiral Garp, do you know what you did this time?"

"Of course~" Garp stretched out his hand as if it was a matter of course, picking his nose, "Aren't you planning to cheat the navy out of money with that kid Xia Che?"

"..."

So, why do you speak so confidently?
Smoker, who was upset by Garp's words, was about to say something else.

"Ah, sorry, you can't say these things everywhere. What if you get investigated? Withdraw, withdraw~" Although he was worried about being investigated, there was no fear on Garp's face. He still said cheerfully, "You are just not as interesting as that boy Shache~, Smoker, do you have anything to say?"

"I will keep this mission secret for the time being as agreed, but if that guy does anything that goes against the justice of the Navy, I will report it to the Navy Admiral along with what happened today and everything you did, Vice Admiral Garp."

"Don't worry, I promise I won't recognize that guy by then!"

"..."

Smoker raised his eyelids, ignored Vice Admiral Garp who was picking his nose and saying some meaningless words, took a deep breath again, and said seriously, "Also, I do have one thing I want to ask, I hope Vice Admiral Garp can tell me."

"You ask first." Vice Admiral Garp, still picking his nose, said cheerfully, "See if I know first!"

"The God Valley Incident..."

"do not know!"

"..."

Is this old guy kidding him?
Seeing that Garp said he didn't know before he even finished asking, with a wandering look in his eyes and picking his nose, clearly not wanting to tell him, veins popped out on Smoker's forehead and his right fist clenched. At this moment, he really wanted to beat this guy up!
Of course~
He knew he would definitely lose.

only……

Valley of the Gods...what on earth happened?
As a navy officer, he had also heard about the God Valley incident.

During that incident, Vice Admiral Garp was awarded the title of Hero of the Navy by the World Government for saving the Celestial Dragons.

But now it seems that things are not that simple?
At that time, Xia Che seemed to want to say something but was interrupted by Vice Admiral Garp. Now he asked again and was interrupted by Vice Admiral Garp again.

So, what happened that even the navy hero is unwilling to talk about?

Just as Smoker fell into deep thought again.

"Smoker, as a marine, you are lucky not to know some things." Garp, who was originally picking his nose cheerfully, suddenly became serious. "Don't dwell on this matter anymore. As a marine, you just need to stick to the justice in your heart."

As he said this, before Smoker, who looked solemn, could ask again, Garp regained his smiling face, stretched lazily, turned his head and shouted to Mork behind him, "Mork boy, if there is anything delicious on the boat, bring it out quickly. It's too boring!"

"Here we are. Would you like some canned oranges and marmalade, the specialty of Kokoaxi?" After hearing what Cap said, Mok's loud voice could be heard, "They are made from spring water, hills, and soil! There's also some kind of machine, and you rub it with your hands. Anyway, it tastes really good!"

The voice just fell.

"???"

Before Karp could understand what Mok was saying.

The crew member on the boat shouted helplessly, "Stupid Captain, the boss said that when promoting our orange jam and canned oranges, we have to say that they are irrigated with natural mineral water from the primeval forest, and each orange seedling is carefully selected and fertilized with natural and healthy organic fertilizer.

The orange farm is located on a gentle slope of a hill, surrounded by undulating peaks, springs, clouds and mist, and moistened by rain, making the oranges sweet, plump, and fresh. Each jar of orange jam is personally prepared by eight jam masters. It is a masterpiece of masters, a great heritage, and a great sales volume! "

"???"XN
Hearing the crew's words, Garp was confused and his eyes widened. Even Smoker, who was deep in thought, was brought back to his senses by the advertisement and looked over with the same curiosity as Tashigi.

Is this orange so powerful?
"Yes, that's what I said. I forgot. Anyway, it's delicious!" Although he was scolded by his younger brother, Mok didn't care. He scratched his head and said with a silly smile, "Want to try it?"

"Yes, it sounds delicious." Karp laughed and said with interest, "Hurry up and bring it to me to try!"

The words fell.

After a while, Mok came over with orange marmalade and canned oranges, and Smoker and Tashigi also came over curiously.

"Can I have a taste?"

"No problem, there are still a lot here!" Mok didn't care at all. He stuffed one directly to Dashigi and even stuffed one to the frowning Smoker, saying, "Try them all!"

As Mok finished speaking, the three of them had already opened the cans. After tasting them curiously, their eyes suddenly lit up.

only……

Although it tastes good, it doesn’t seem that exaggerated!

"Not bad, but that advertisement is too exaggerated. I think it must be a lie!" Garp said happily as he poured the liquid into his mouth, "That Xia Che kid is really a liar who even cheated the navy out of military funds!"

"Humph~"

Smoker, who was also eating at the side, snorted coldly, looked at the can in his hand, and seemed to want to say something again, but before he could open his mouth.

'Porluporlu,porluporlu~'

At this time.

A telephone bug rang.

It's Cap's.

Garp was startled, and took out the Den Den Mushi. Then, without paying too much attention, he answered the call directly, "Ah~, it's Sengoku! What's going on?"

The words fell.

Marshal of the Warring States Period.

After hearing the word "Warring States", Smoker and Tashigi immediately calmed down, with serious expressions on their faces, and stood quietly by the side waiting.

The Mok Pirates who were watching this scene nearby also fell silent at this moment.

Just listen.

"What's that sound? Are you cheating again? Can you be more serious?" Den Den Mushi, who had turned into a seagull hat, said helplessly, but after he finished speaking, he sighed and said seriously, "How was the mission this time?"

"Mission? What mission?"

"You, have you forgotten the mission I gave you again? Didn't I ask you to investigate whether Dander Shache is colluding with pirates?"

Hearing Garp's answer, the Seagull Den Den Mushi roared again.

"Can you be more serious? That guy has sent another application for military funds. The approval department is suspicious of Dande Shache, but Zefa believes that his students would never do such a thing. Both sides are arguing, and it's getting on my nerves."

"Ahahaha, I was just teasing you~." Looking at the angry Den Den Mushi, Garp picked his ears nonchalantly, "Remember, remember, it's been dealt with."

"Has it been dealt with?" After Garp's answer, Den Den Mushi calmed down a little and frowned, "What's the situation? Did the 16th branch of the Navy defraud military funds and collude with the pirate group?"

The voice just fell.

"Of course not~" Garp said without hesitation, in a serious tone, with a righteous face, "Everything Colonel Shache said is true. The Mok Pirates are indeed a group of extremely vicious pirates. The current equipment of the 16th Marine Branch is indeed unable to fight against them. Even I find it a bit tricky."

"Why are you so serious all of a sudden? This doesn't sound like something you would say. Forget it~, are you telling the truth?" Den Den Mushi frowned, revealing a puzzled expression, "The Mok Pirates? Even you find it so difficult? Isn't it just a pirate with a bounty of 30 million? And what's wrong with you? Why does your Den Den Mushi feel so sweaty?"

He said this with a serious tone, as if he had thought of something.

"You bastard, are you not serious?"

"Ahahaha~, how is that possible? It's just that the East China Sea has been a little hot recently. Anyway, that guy escaped from me." Hearing Den Den Mushi Sengoku's question, under the contemptuous eyes of Smoker and Tashigi, Garp remained calm. He laughed and picked his nose and said carelessly, "You know me, he's a pirate."

"That's right, you can't possibly be working with pirates!"

"..."

"Forget it, since you said so, it seems that they are indeed a group of pirates who are not simple." Den Den Mushi Sengoku frowned and said, then thought for a while and said, "It seems normal that the 16th Marine Branch failed to arrest them even though they escaped from you. It seems that another big pirate will emerge in the East China Sea."

"Yes, yes, it's really not easy!" Seeing Sengoku's reaction, Garp seemed to be relieved and resumed his carefree smile, "Then the bounty must be increased!"

"Increase the bounty? Aren't the Mok Pirates still in the East China Sea? Isn't thirty million enough?"

"Not enough, not enough." Garp picked his nose and said cheerfully, "That was a pirate who escaped from my hands."

"Is that so?" Den Den Mushi Sengoku frowned when he heard what Garp said. After thinking for a while, he asked, "Then how much do you think it should be increased?"

"How much?" Garp smiled happily, narrowed his eyes slightly, and looked at Captain Mok of the Mok Pirates who was holding a can of food.

And for some reason, Mok, who was being watched, felt his heart skip a beat and cold sweat broke out on his forehead, as if he had a bad premonition.

Before he could say anything.

I saw.

Garp in front of him suddenly grinned, revealing his white teeth, and then waved his hand and said in a serious tone, "A big pirate like this must be worth at least 50 million!"

The words fell.

Mok: ...

Fifty million? !

What on earth does this old guy want to do?
