I'm a big pirate, and you said I just went out to sea?

Chapter 19: Food Cravings, Charlotte Lingling's Tribulation
boom!
A dull roar.

In the underworld at the bottom of Elbaf, a snow-white werewolf stood on one side, and in front of the white wolf was a giant whose height looked like a mountain.

"No fight, no fight."

Seeing that the giant was about to attack again, the white wolf waved his hands, and his snow-white hair gradually shrank, and his height recovered from nearly three meters to about two meters.

"I always feel like I'm at a disadvantage in this kind of sparring."

Mung smacked his lips. For an old man like him, fighting with a "young" giant like Harald would basically not provide any exercise.

After all, their fights are just to a point, and there is no winner or loser.

In this case, of course the younger party has more room for improvement.

"This task is unlikely to be completed in a short period of time."

Monger looked at the system panel.

On June 30th, 1480, Haiyuan Calendar, after a two-month voyage, you finally arrived at the giants' homeland, Elbaf.

[Task 1: Defeat a giant warrior.]

Elbaf's giant warriors are world-renowned. A king once said that if she formed an alliance with the giants, she would become the king of the sea.

[Quest Reward: Giant Clan Combat Skill - Hero's Spear!]

(Completed)

【Task 2: Recruit crew members.】

[As the captain of a pirate group, how can you lack loyal crew members? ]

[Mission Reward: Each crew member recruited will slightly increase cell activity.]

(Current crew size: 2)

[Mission 3: Defeat the Giant King Harald! ]

[I can't believe that the Giant King of Elbaf is willing to fight you in a fair one-on-one duel. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.]

[Mission Reward: Increased Conqueror Haki strength and cell activity.]

(unfinished)

This is why Munger has been challenging Harald to a duel for the past six months.

The so-called Conqueror's Haki is a talent that only a few people possess. If one wants to develop Conqueror's Haki, one must fight with other people who possess Conqueror's Haki.

There's no room for sparring, it has to be a fight to the death.

The self-confidence cultivated through repeated battles will become the nourishment for the growth of domineering domineering.

Mung and Harald have sparred so many times, and there have been clashes of Conqueror's Haki, but until the day comes when they really want to decide the winner, their sparring will not lead to much growth in Conqueror's Haki.

It's easy to deceive the enemy.

The hard part is deceiving yourself.

"Kululululul, Mung, I have to go back. The Winter Solstice Festival is coming soon. If I don't go back, Mary will scold me again."

When talking about his wife, Harald, the fierce-looking giant, actually showed a hint of tenderness on his face.

"Get out, get out!"

Monger waved his hand with a look of disgust. He had lived for so many years, and what he hated most was someone showing off their affection in front of him.

Over the years, Monger has met someone he likes, but as a pirate, he knows very well that he cannot stay in one place for long.

Unless you can kidnap the person onto your own boat.

Otherwise, every meeting may be a farewell forever.

Munger is still a traditional man at heart and cannot do such ruthless things.

Of course, this doesn't count if both parties are willing.

"Winter Solstice Festival~"

In Elbaf, the winter solstice festival is a celebration of the sun, death, and resurrection.

Before the winter solstice festival, people living in Elbaf must fast for twelve days, not eating anything and only drinking water.

Monger remembered that the last time they came to Elbaf, they left before the Winter Solstice Festival, so they didn't experience the giants' Winter Solstice Festival. This time, because Monger would be staying in Elbaf for a long time, he would definitely experience several Winter Solstice Festivals.

Half a year has passed.

Munger's mental outlook has undergone a radical change.

Although I can’t say I’m young.

But compared to half a year ago, Munger has almost recovered to his sixty-year-old state.

The sixty-year-old Mung was able to fight the Giant King Harald for a whole day and night, and finally ended in a draw.

And Monger, who has mastered the Conqueror's Haki, will only be stronger than he was ten years ago.

However, Mung only recovered, but Harald actually became stronger.

After all, Harald, who is 150 years old, is in his prime. He was able to tie with Munger ten years ago. He must have made some progress in the past ten years.

Munger even suspected that Harald had already reached that threshold.

That future is said to be a realm that only the admirals of the navy, the four emperors, and the vice-captains of some pirate groups can reach.

In fact.

This giant king, who looks fierce, actually doesn't like fighting that much.

If Harald really works hard.

Perhaps he has already stepped into that threshold.

Following closely behind Harald.

Monger walked towards the village.

"Come on Hailding!"

"Come on Rocks!"

"Knock him down!"

"."

In front of the Lamb's House, Hailding and Rocks were practicing as usual.

Compared with half a year ago, Rocks has become much stronger. He used to need speed to narrowly defeat Hailding, but now even in a head-on competition of strength, Rocks is not at a disadvantage at all.

"If this continues, Rocks will really surpass me, right?"

Fighting with two adult giants at the same time, Lipri glanced in the direction of Rocks and felt a strong sense of crisis.

"Hey, Lipri, don't lose focus during the battle!"

"Yeah, don't underestimate us!"

The two giants, one fat and one thin, gave Monk the feeling of a fat and thin monk. As crew members of the Giant Pirates in the past, their strength was not bad.

Even if Lipri has Munger's special help, it will still be difficult for her to defeat these two old seniors in a short time.

In the village, many female giants were kneading dough.

Because the winter solstice festival requires fasting, the giants will make a lot of high-calorie desserts before that.

Everything is the same as usual.

But Monger knew that for other people, the Winter Solstice Festival would at most mean going hungry, and they could get through it by gritting their teeth. However, for Charlotte Linling, it was an insurmountable hurdle.

Food cravings!
This is a disease that Charlotte Lingling has suffered from since birth. As long as she does not eat for a long time, she will lose consciousness and start to run away.

It was this disease that forced Charlotte Lingling's parents to abandon her.

However, since it is a disease, it must be treated.

In the past six months, Munger has not been idle. He wrote letters to doctors he knew in the past, asking them for methods to treat bulimia.

The final conclusion is nothing more than one.

Willpower.

Only by controlling the body with willpower can one get rid of the effects of food cravings.
