Chapter 28

Zovi, an unsuccessful newspaper reporter.

At the age of 27 or [-], he has no achievements to speak of, so he can only hang out on the newspaper office in the small port town.

Fortunately, his parents are friendly and have good friendships with many people in the small town, which allowed him to make a living by relying on the favors he had in the past.

As a third-rate reporter, Zovi didn't have any good news, and the biggest incident he reported was nothing more than the embarrassing incident of the boss's cheating on the street.

But the newspaper office is not a safe place, where news is everything.

But what big things can happen in a small port town, so after three or four years of being around, Zowei naturally came to the verge of being fired.

"If you can't come up with decent news, you can pack up and leave. I have raised you for three or four years, which is enough to repay your parents' kindness."

Recalling what the fat boss said to him not long ago, Zovi curled his lips. Although there was resentment on his face, there was nothing he could do in his heart.

Drinking water with human feelings, knowing whether it is warm or not.Even great favors will always be wiped out one day.

The deck shrouded in dark clouds was cold and windy, Zowei tightened the collar of his windbreaker, cursing inwardly.The bean-sized raindrops fell on his body, making him feel unspeakable discomfort.

This is a naval patrol ship, and the captain is his friend at the wine table.

When he and the lieutenant were spending time in the tavern, a sailor found them and said that several villagers from Guya Village asked for help, and pirates were attacking their village.

When Zovi heard this, he was startled at first, and looked at the lieutenant with some concern, but after thinking about it, he was overjoyed, and even more than half of his drunkenness was sober.

For Zovi, this is a great thing.He was worried that there would be no news, and this news came to him. If he could turn over this matter and keep his job, why would he spend the day in a tavern to drink away his worries.

"Will, my good brother, you have to take me with you in this matter, you know, my job."

Rolling his eyes, Zovi stuffed a few banknotes in the lieutenant's pocket without leaving a trace.

The naval lieutenant named Will narrowed his eyes, as if he was weighing in his mind which was more important, military discipline or banknotes, but it didn't take long, he laughed and waved his hand full of alcohol.

"Go, my good brother, let me show you the majesty of our navy!"

Zovi was naturally overjoyed, grabbed his meal, put on his windbreaker, and boarded the patrol ship parked at the port with Will.

The clouds were thick and the wind was howling.

Not long after the warship sailed, Zovi and the others encountered a heavy rainstorm. This kind of weather made the sailors who were unwilling to go on missions even more irritable and cursed their mothers one after another.

"Damn it, I'm only such a valuable thing, don't break it."

Covering his camera with a windbreaker, Zovi looked at the coastline in front of him cursingly, and there was the destination of their trip, Guya Village.

"My good brother, why don't you go into the cabin, what are you doing on the deck in the rain?"

Wearing the lieutenant's uniform jacket, Will staggered out of the cabin, and saw Zowi who was drenched in the rain on the deck at a glance.The smell of alcohol on his body has not completely dissipated, but fortunately, Zovi beside him doesn't care.

"Hehe, of course I'm looking for news. If I miss something in front of my eyes, wouldn't I be sorry for my "boat fare"?"

Zovi chuckled, making a joke that was both true and false.

"Haha."

Will didn't care about Zovi's ridicule, just shook his head and said to him.

"I'm afraid this will disappoint you. Guya Village is not too close to our town, and it will take at least an hour for those villagers to get there. And counting our time on the boat, I'm afraid those pirates have already run away completely. In an hour and a half, at the speed of those sea locusts, there is nothing that cannot be moved."

Talking to Zovi on his own, Will lit a cigarette for himself.He was sure in his heart that the mission this time was just to go out and put on a show. As for fighting or something, it was naturally impossible to meet him.

"Then I have to write about the tragedy of the village after being looted by pirates."

Zovi's face was a bit disappointed. In fact, at the beginning, he really hoped to catch some big news, but after the rain, he gradually calmed down, and he would not meet the pirates until he could.

The scene after the looting is no small news, isn't it?

Will took a deep breath of the cigarette, mixed the exhaled smoke into the moist air, and just wanted to pretend to comfort Zovi, when suddenly his eyes widened as if he had seen a ghost.

"The One-Eyed Skull Banner! It's Belik!"

The one-eyed Belik has a reputation for being vicious, and especially of late.

The Belik Fleet, which annexed two pirate groups, is definitely a force that cannot be ignored in the North Sea, and it is far from being able to be settled by a patrol ship like them.

"Retreat. Retreat!"

Will doesn't look like a lieutenant in the navy at all. For him, his status and military discipline are not as important as his own life.Without three or four warships and several times more soldiers than the enemy, in the North Sea, who would dare to say lightly that Bellik could be captured.

But before Will's retreat order was issued to the entire patrol ship, the naval soldiers in charge of observing the enemy's situation with binoculars shouted quickly.

"Lieutenant! Lieutenant Will! Wait!"

When Will heard this, his anger jumped out of his chest uncontrollably. He left the trembling Zovi behind, and after a few steps, he came to the observer, picked up his collar, and roared loudly.

"Wait a fart! You bastard, do you want us to be buried with you! You want to stay and I don't care, I have to go."

The observer was shocked by Will, and couldn't speak a complete sentence for a while. After two or three seconds, the poor guy explained to Will with a flushed face.

"Lieutenant, I'm not. Take a quick look, the members of the Belik Pirates are all dead! The shallows are full of corpses!"

Hearing the observation soldier's words, Will's first reaction was that the other party was teasing him, but no matter how rationally he didn't believe what the soldier said, the deepest hope in his heart still made him pick up the binoculars.

After carefully confirming that the corpse on the shore was not a trap over and over again, Will put down the binoculars in a daze, and his expression fell into a daze.

"Who is it? Slaughtered the Belik Pirates."

Hearing Will's murmur, Zovi also regained his composure from panic.He rubbed the camera under the windbreaker, squinted at the shallow talk not far away through the rain curtain.

Although he couldn't see the real situation on the shore, his professional sensitivity made him smell big news.

"I live, I won."

Simple words declared the outcome of this battle.Relying on the super recovery ability of the animal-type devil fruit, Belik finally survived the final fight and became the final winner.

"Cough, cough, cough."

After coughing violently, Long Yi struggled to get up from the ground.Rainwater flowed down his cheeks, his face was pale, and his eyes were full of unwillingness.

He lost.

"What a crushing defeat, even if equipped with [Expert Contract], can't you beat him?"

Feeling that the power was passing away bit by bit from his body, Long Yi lowered his head dejectedly.

The scroll he had drawn in the sea of ​​consciousness back then was an item called [Expert Contract (Deluxe Edition)], which allowed him to learn skills ten levels higher than his own.This is also the reason why Long Yi can use sword skills such as "Sura Evil Light Slash" and Ghost Seal Pearl just after he changed his job.

But props are time-effective after all, just now, Long Yi's mind has been reminded that the props are invalid.

The leak in the house coincided with the continuous night rain, it was talking about Long Yi's current situation.

"It's really amazing. If you let you practice for a few more years, I will definitely not be your opponent."

Bellick had an expression of winning, he didn't care what kind of backhand Long Yi was hiding, he could clearly see that the shocking sword aura just now was the way that brat desperately wanted to die.

"Ha ha."

Long Yi didn't answer, just smiled miserably, but his brows were still unruly.

"Don't worry, I will let you go on your way."

The current situation is endless.Belik did not greet Long Yi hypocritically, but turned into a night owl form again with a grinning grin, and flew to Long Yi's side without haste.

Although Belik's movements are far less flexible than before, but it is enough to deal with the current Long Yi.

I saw that he first broke Long Yi's samurai sword that fell on the ground with one claw, then grabbed Long Yi with his bird claws, hooked his sharp claws around his distressed body, spread his wings, and led Long Yi soaring into the sky. rise.

"I'll beat you to death, I want to see how hard your bones are!"

A gleam of joy flashed in his one-eyed eyes, no matter what, he, Bellik, was the final winner.

"Your body doesn't seem to be as strong as before. If you fall from this height, you will die too."

Long Yi, who was taken up into the sky, spoke calmly without any panic.He just quietly looked at Belik who was out of breath, secretly connected to the sea of ​​consciousness in his heart, and took out a prop.

This was not the trump card he prepared, but now it has become his reliance to turn defeat into victory.

"Go on, Bellick."

Long Yi's icy voice came from next to his ear, Belik was shocked, and subconsciously wanted to let go of his sharp claws and drop Long Yi, but it was too late.

"How is it possible! Where did you take this out from!"

The flames were reflected in the one-eyed eyes, and the shrill screams resounded through the sky. Belik's heart was beating wildly, and his heart fell into despair.
