One Piece: I'm a Hunter on the Grand Line

The gift box was opened, and a silver revolver came into the father and daughter's view.

The gun has an exquisite design, and three boxes of matching bullets are placed next to it, with a caliber far exceeding that of ordinary short guns.

Colonel Linde looked up, a look of understanding flashing in his eyes.

So you gave us, father and daughter, all the things you didn't need.

Yelena immediately understood what he meant and banged on the table. "Don't overthink it, the gifts are all new! Mine's right here."

As she spoke, she took out the two revolvers that were tucked into her waistband and placed them on the table.

"This violin, though I've had it for almost two years, I've never used it once; it's practically brand new! And this gun I'm giving you, I just bought it before leaving Notis Island; it's practically brand new!"

Eve got up and put the cello back in its case. She glared at Colonel Lind, then moved closer to Yelena and took her arm.

"Don't listen to Dad's nonsense, ignore him for now. My sister really likes the gift you gave me, and I will cherish it forever."

"What did I say... Okay, okay, it's my fault," Colonel Linde immediately backed down in the face of his daughter's glare.

However, he still defended himself, saying, "I didn't say I disliked it; in fact, I said I really liked it!"

What man would refuse a gun as a gift?

He nodded solemnly, "I will treat it as my most important collection."

When I got back, I put the gun in my desk and took it out to look at it whenever I had free time.

Collection?

Yelena frowned; this wasn't her intention. "I'm giving you this gun so you can use it."

"But I'm a swordsman." Linde took his katana and placed it on the table. "When have you ever seen me use a gun?"

[At this point, I hope readers will remember our domain name: 10 ...

He is a true swordsman, and his swordsmanship practice has never stopped since the day he enlisted.

"Who isn't a swordsman?"

After Yelena spun the two revolvers several times in her hands, she tucked them back into her waistband.

"When fighting pirates in close combat, firing a shot unexpectedly can catch weaker opponents off guard. Even if it doesn't hit a vital spot, it can still be very disruptive."

These are all based on her experience.

Colonel Linde was speechless with astonishment.

"You're a swordsman, yet you still use a gun to ambush the enemy during combat?"

What about the swordsman's dignity?

Yelena couldn't help but roll her eyes. "They're all just methods to eliminate enemies. As long as the moves work, that's fine."

"There's a captain under Whitebeard's banner, the Knight Dorma, you've heard of him? He keeps a monkey on his back. When he tries to kill someone with a knife, the monkey fires a gun to retaliate."

"Compared to them, our methods are much more virtuous."

If the person opposite her wasn't Colonel Lind, she wouldn't bother explaining all that.

There's a saying, isn't there?

Yes, when talking to an elderly person, you have to attack their dignity.

"Your swordsmanship is so poor that you can easily cut through pirate henchmen, but against pirates with bounties exceeding fifteen million, it'll be a life-or-death situation!"

"How can we manage without mastering some unconventional methods? I don't want to hear the news of your death in the line of duty one day in the future; that would make me very sad."

"Well……"

Colonel Linde stood there, stunned. His mouth twitched, his eyes twitched, and his old face turned as red as a monkey's bottom.

They say honest advice is hard to hear, but this is just too awful!

"Little Yelena..."

Eve glanced at her father with sympathy, then turned to Yelena with a pleading look in her eyes.

Say less.

"And you! When you get back, supervise the colonel's shooting practice! More sweat in peacetime, less blood on the battlefield!"

Faced with Yelena's all-out attack, Eve didn't dare to talk back, and instead nodded with glee... no, with tears in her eyes.

Colonel Linde was dumbfounded.

These are all the words I use to instruct my subordinates.

He sighed, tucked the gun into his pocket, and nodded solemnly. "Don't worry, I won't risk my life. The Swallo Island branch still needs me for the time being."

"Don't just talk about me; you must also remember that the Grand Line is different from the North Blue. There, powerful figures abound, and dangers abound!"

"When fighting with others, your own life is the most important thing. If you encounter danger, you should run for your life. Don't feel ashamed."

Yelena chuckled, "That's not something a naval captain should say."

Colonel Linde said sternly, "You're not in the Navy, so you don't have to follow Navy guidelines."

"I will keep it in mind," Yelena nodded.

She wasn't reckless. If she encountered an enemy she couldn't afford to offend, what was wrong with temporarily avoiding their sharp edge? She could always fight back when she was stronger.

"By the way, when are you leaving?" Colonel Linde suddenly changed the subject.

"It's still uncertain. It might be at the end of the month, or it might be next month. What's wrong?"

When she sets off depends on when Mr. 11 and the others manage to seize the pirate ship. Several days have passed, and the Den Den Mushi in her bag hasn't rung yet.

Those people probably didn't even see a trace of pirates.

"Fortunately, there's still enough time." Colonel Linde smiled mysteriously. "I have a surprise for you."

"What, you're also going to the Grand Line for training?"

The colonel immediately lost his composure, "Go away! What would I do there! Forget it, let's tell the truth, I also have a gift for you."

Eve raised her hand, "Don't forget me! Dad, the money you saved up couldn't afford that thing, so I contributed quite a bit."

Seeing the two of them behaving this way, Yelena became quite curious.

"What gift?"

Colonel Linde continued, "I was planning to tell you after I got the items, but I received your gift today first, so I'll mention it while I'm at it."

"Are you going to tell me or not?"

Colonel Linde glanced at her. Was he already in a hurry?

Should!

Who told you to be so disrespectful to me just now?

"The story begins more than a year ago..."

whispering sound.

Yelena pouted. "Why don't you start with the blank century?"

"You saved us from pirates twice. Such kindness cannot be repaid with just a few words."

"Before we parted last time, after seeing the five longswords you had ordered, I had an idea: why not give you a suitable weapon as a gift to repay your kindness?"

"On the island where my hometown is located, there is a famous swordsmith who was my friend in my early years."

"I have commissioned him to forge a longsword using the finest materials, based on the design of the one you have."

"A few days ago, the swordsmith sent a letter saying that the longsword had been forged and I sent someone to pick it up. He should be back in about three days."

A renowned swordsmith?

Famous sword? Famous blade!

"What grade? A Great Grade Sword? No, since he's a renowned swordsmith, it's not impossible for him to forge a Supreme Grade Sword! Don't you think so?"

Yelena's eyes lit up, and she stood up excitedly.

"That's bullshit!" Colonel Linde slumped into his chair, his eyes wide with a deadpan expression.

"Do I look like someone who knows a legendary swordsmith?"

"I'd accept even a fine, fast knife!" Yelena's hope remained undiminished.

Not long ago, she had just seen the fine sword "Hanazumi". Judging from the aura emanating from the sword, it was more than a match for her current strength.

Even a longsword of the same grade would still be a treasure she longed to obtain.

"Even I, an old man, cannot obtain a fine and sharp knife."

Colonel Linde's face began to turn pale; he regretted revealing the matter beforehand.

I was hoping to give this kid a good talking-to for days, but judging from his tone, anything below Liang Kuai Dao probably wouldn't be a surprise.

Are young people these days really that picky?

Sigh, might as well give up and do whatever it takes.

"It's a sharp blade! This weapon is the blacksmith's masterpiece; in his fifty-year career, its quality ranks among the top two!"

Although that person had only forged one fast knife before.

But it's a famous sword, isn't it?

Why can't we just use "famous" to describe it?

"Quick knife..." Yelena sat back down.

Let's eat the vegetables, the meat's getting cold.

Colonel Linde: "..."

Wait, what's with this guy's attitude?

That's a sharp blade! Even the lowest grade of a famous blade is still a famous blade!

He's been in the business for fifty years and has never owned a famous sword!

"Hoo~" Colonel Linde's face began to turn red.

I was so angry.

Whoosh!

Yelena's figure disappeared from the spot, and the next moment, she appeared behind the colonel.

"I didn't say I didn't want it. I'll like any gift you or Sister Eve give me, no matter what it is."

As she spoke, Yelena patted Colonel Lind on the back to help him catch his breath.

"Not all famous swords possess a high grade upon completion of forging. Countless swords throughout history have grown in fame alongside their masters!"

"So, a quick knife is also a good choice; don't give up hope."

thump.

Colonel Linde slammed his head on the table, on the verge of tears.

Who exactly is giving the gift?
