Comic series: Starting from Pirates to Cultivate the True Self

Ganggu Kong picked up the teacup calmly, blew on the tea leaves floating on the water, and took a sip leisurely.

This brings us to the composition of the navy's salary, which is basically composed of three major parts. First, each rank has a fixed salary, and of course the higher the rank, the higher the salary.

Second, the headquarters would take 90% of the bounty on the pirates, and the remaining 10% would be shared by the officers and soldiers who captured the pirates, with the share decreasing from top to bottom. The officers in charge would get more, and the people below would get less.

Don't think that the headquarters' 90% is very high, because the bounty itself is only a means to combat pirates. Putting aside pirate hunters, the navy's main job is to do this, so the world government generally does not give the navy the full amount. Secondly, the intelligence department, logistics department, medical expenses and pensions for casualties after the war, etc., are all not a low expense.

Think about it in real life, if you negotiate a project worth 100 million, can the company give you a reward of 10?

Third, if you become the highest commander of the branch, then the gray income from the industries, towns, etc. under the branch's management will also be a huge sum of money. You will take the lion's share, and you will also have to share the profits with the soldiers under you as appropriate, otherwise who will work hard for you?

Seeing that the melon had been eaten, everyone took their leave. Mo Xingchen went home with Garp to discuss borrowing warships and soldiers.

Chapter 14 This can't be taught

To put it bluntly, this trip to the Sabaody Archipelago to capture pirates is to let Mo Xingchen gain military merits, to avoid gossip when he is promoted, and also to see if he has the ability to stand on his own, so Garp will not accompany him.

Since they are going to capture pirates, they must have warships and soldiers. With Mo Xingchen's current rank, it is obviously impossible for him to own his own warship.

When discussing borrowing ships and soldiers, Garp also told him about the specific distribution of benefits after capturing pirates on his warships.

Because the specific distribution of each warship is different, it is basically allocated by the warship's highest commander. The commander who loves money will get more, and the commander who loves soldiers will get less.

At the same time, he also reminded him to go to Vice Admiral Tsuru to get more intelligence before he set off, such as which pirates are worth noting in the Sabaody Archipelago at present, and which pirates may reach the Sabaody Archipelago through route analysis in the next month, etc. These experiences can make his actions smoother.

Dragka returned home at dinner time and heard Mo Xingchen and his father discussing going to the Sabaody Archipelago to catch pirates, so he volunteered:

"Brother Mo! Take me with you! These two years of training camp life are almost driving me crazy!"

"If I'm unlucky during my trip to the Sabaody Archipelago, I may not be able to return until your awarding ceremony. Besides, your training is about to end, so why would Admiral Zephyr take you out for the graduation assessment? How can you have the time to play with me?"

Mo Xingchen asked with a puzzled look on his face.

"Graduation assessment? Hi~ Brother Mo, you are talking about the recruit camp. The lowest rank in our elite class is major. We are here for further training, mainly to learn Haki techniques from Master Zefa. To put it bluntly, basically all the middle and senior leaders of the Navy in the next few decades are in this class.

So we are basically in a free-range state for the next period of time. Teacher Zefa said that we have taught everything we need to teach, and the rest is up to us. If I didn’t have only one month to be awarded the medal, I would have gone out to sea to catch pirates a long time ago. "

"Okay then. Once I'm ready in the next two days, I'll call you when I'm ready to leave."

When Mo Xingchen heard what Dorag said, he agreed. It was good to have a companion along the way. After waiting for the guards to bring the food and eating dinner together, the two of them walked to the training ground to prepare for the extra training against Dorag today.

Along the way, Dorag turned into a curious baby.

"Brother Mo, what was that move you used today to block Vice Admiral Sakaski's meteor volcano with your whole body glowing? It was so cool, can I learn it?"

"Don't even think about the Six Ding and Six Jia protective spells. You can't learn what our ancestors left behind."

"Oh~ I saw you attacking Lieutenant General Sakaski's joints for so long, but he was not hurt at all. If it were me, I would not be able to get up."

"He must have been hurt after being beaten for such a long time. It's just that he is much stronger than you physically, and he was so angry during the fight that he temporarily suppressed the pain. I guess now that he has calmed down, he might be rolling on the bed and crying out in pain."

"Hahahaha, Brother Mo, if I meet an opponent with a strong physique and high resistance to blows in the future, how can I win?"

"First, you have to practice your body skills so that you don't get beaten as much as possible. Even if you can't win, at least you can run away. Take Borsalino for example. Why is he also called a monster? He has strength, but the most important thing is his fruit ability. You can't keep up with his speed. He will hit you when he wants to, and you can't stop him when he doesn't want to. It's a very troublesome ability.

Secondly, you have to strengthen your physique, which is also my current weakness. When faced with a situation like today, without anyone intervening, it depends on who runs out of energy first and who loses. Of course, as your physique becomes stronger, your ability to withstand blows will naturally increase.

For example, think about how long you could last when you first started sparring with me, and how long you can last now.

The third is to practice your Armament Haki, so that your Armament Haki is not just attached to the surface of your body to form a protective layer or used to capture natural devil fruit ability users.

It must be able to leave the body, and through your attack, penetrate the enemy's armor color and skin protection layer, and directly hit the bones and even organs in his body. No matter how strong the monster is, it will not be able to withstand the attack.

This is the advanced technique of Armament Haki. Currently, I only know the direction but cannot use it yet."

"I see. By the way, Brother Mo, I see that you don't train that often, but why do I feel like you're getting stronger? Do you have any tricks?"

"The secret of fart is that the way I practice is different from most people. I meditate and sit in meditation every day. It is a kind of practice for one's own essence, qi and spirit."

"That………"

Mo Xingchen patiently answered Dragon's questions. It was just that during the sparring, he used a little more force today than usual. It was definitely not because he was annoyed by Dragon's questions. Well... absolutely!

……

In the next two days, Mo Xingchen was busy with various preparations. When recruiting soldiers, he didn't expect that he would have to ask for help with a smile, but as soon as he told Lieutenant William in the control room, he enthusiastically took on the task.

Looking at his enthusiastic look, if Mo Xingchen hadn't said that they didn't need too many people this time, just enough would be enough, he felt that this lieutenant could bring everyone on the ship. This also made him a little narcissistic about his current prestige.

Besides, when he went to get intelligence from Vice Admiral He, she had already prepared a thick stack of information. As soon as he entered the door, she threw it to him and said that he could have tea himself and that if he had nothing to do, he should get out and not disturb her work.

When Mo Xingchen left, he did not forget to tell him that he had called the head of the Sabaody Archipelago branch, and the branch situation was also in the file. Mo Xingchen could only sigh, "Oh~ this charming elder sister!"

When the lieutenant in the control room came to tell him that the soldiers had been recruited and were ready to set off at any time, Mo Xingchen asked the lieutenant to notify everyone to gather at the dock at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning to set sail.

By the way, he also gave the information about the pirates to the lieutenant and asked him to familiarize himself with the intelligence. He himself was going to go back to take a look at the situation of the Sabaody Archipelago branch and then notify Dragon.

The next morning, the ship, with a bow like a dog's head, slowly sailed out of the port and headed towards the Chabaobab Archipelago.

Everything seemed ordinary, after all, it was not a big operation. The voyage was short, and there were only about 20 soldiers in total, a combat squad and a mechanical squad. They didn't even bring the cooking squad, which would definitely be stationed at the branch. They brought this combat squad with them because they thought it would be easier to keep watch over the pirates when they were captured.

Chapter 15: Publicly funded travel is really good

Mo Xingchen, who was lying on the beach chair, looked at Dorag, who was also wearing casual clothes and only a military cap, and asked curiously:

"Drago, I remember you seemed to be a lieutenant colonel, why aren't you wearing your coat of justice?"

"I'm on vacation now, and besides, you're the protagonist this time, Brother Mo, why would I steal your limelight?"

Leaning against the railing of the boat, Dorag, drinking juice and enjoying the sea breeze, said without turning his head.

"By the way, do you know the branch commander of the Sabaody Archipelago, Major General Wilt?"

"I'm not very familiar with him. I met him once or twice when I was on a mission in the Sabaody Archipelago. He was a very easy-going person. I heard that he was a soldier under Lieutenant General Borsalino. I don't remember much more."

At this time, Lieutenant William, who was standing aside, took the initiative to report to Mo Xingchen.

"Captain Mo, Major General Wilt was originally the adjutant of Lieutenant General Borsalino. The first branch commander of the Sabaody Archipelago was Lieutenant General Borsalino. At that time, he was still a major general. After he was promoted to lieutenant general, he was assigned a new mission and left.

However, due to the special geographical location of the Chabaoti Archipelago, the situation on the island is very complicated, and it is very close to the headquarters, so no strong lieutenant general was sent to guard it, and Major General Wilt took over. "

"William, I didn't realize you knew so much."

William scratched his head embarrassedly.

"Captain Mo, please stop praising me. We are small fry with no real power. We can only do intelligence work."

"Hahahaha, you can't say that, William. It is with this kind of intelligence analysis that we can help our boss do his job better!"

As they chatted, the soldiers at the lookout issued a notice that the Sabaody Archipelago was about to arrive. The warship sailed directly into the port of the naval branch. As soon as everyone got off the ship, a man wearing a colonel's coat of justice came over with several soldiers.

"Hello, Captain Mo! I am Phelps, the adjutant of Major General Wilt. Major General Wilt asked me to come and take you to his office."

"OK, thanks."

Mo Xingchen asked Will to go down and take over the task, while he took Dorag and followed Colonel Phelps to the office.

When he entered the office, he saw a burly man with a full beard sitting on the sofa making tea. Mo Xingchen took the initiative to speak.

"Hello, Major General Wilt! I'm Mo Xingchen, sorry for disturbing you this time!"

"Hahahaha, Captain Mo, Lieutenant Colonel Dorag, you're welcome, please take a seat!" Wilt handed the two of them hot tea and continued:

“I’ve heard rumors about you. Vice Admiral Garp’s communications soldier is as strong as a monster and can fight Vice Admiral Sakaski to a draw.

Lieutenant General He and Lieutenant General Borsalino have already called me. If you need any cooperation in this operation, just tell Phelps directly. I have already informed the subordinates and they will definitely cooperate. "

"Major General Wilt, you are so polite. Thank you so much!"

Both the host and the guests were having a great time. After Mo Xingchen asked about the current situation of the Sabaody Archipelago, he took Dorag with him to go for a walk.

Through understanding, we found that the current distribution of the Chabaoti Archipelago is basically not much different from the original.

The entire Chabaoti Archipelago is made up of 79 large trees. For easy identification, each tree is numbered.

1 to 29: Mainly include human trafficking shops, human auctions, illegal zones, etc.

30th to 39th: Mainly include soap bubble park, etc.

No. 40 to 49: Mainly tourist areas, specialty shops, etc.

No. 50 to 59: Mainly shipyards, coating craftsmen, etc.

No. 60 to 69: Mainly include naval garrison, government entrance and exit, etc.

No. 70 to 79: Mainly hotel streets, etc.

After leaving the office, Mo Xingchen took Dragon to Islands 30-49. There were plenty of pirates in the illegal area anyway, so he was not in a hurry to work. He planned to take a good look around this magical island. Wouldn't it be great to travel at public expense?

"Dragu, you are just too upright."

"Drago, you were so focused on catching pirates that you ignored the beautiful scenery along the way."

"Dragu, you have to learn how to balance work and rest. Otherwise, you will be tense all the time, how can you make progress?"

.........

For more than 20 days, Mo Xingchen took Dorag to visit almost the entire Sabaody Archipelago except for the illegal areas 1-29. They played all the games and bought a lot of miscellaneous things, but most of them were distributed to the soldiers who came out with him, and of course there were also gifts from several big guys.

After suffering mental attacks for more than 20 consecutive days, Dorag finally exploded. He rushed into the dormitory early in the morning, grabbed Mo Xingchen by the collar, pulled him out of bed, and roared:

"Mo Xingchen, you've been playing for so many days in a row, and the medal awarding ceremony is about to begin, but you haven't caught a single pirate yet!"

"Hey, hey, hey~ Don't be so angry, tomorrow! Let's go tomorrow!"

Mo Xingchen said in a flattering manner,

"I don't believe you, you've been saying this since last week, today! Today!"

Seeing that he couldn't refuse any longer, Mo Xingchen could only accept his fate.

"Okay, okay, I can't argue with you. You are the boss and you have the final say. Today, I will show you what efficiency is!"

After saying that, he yelled out the door:

"William!"

William came running over upon hearing the sound, and stopped to salute.

"Captain Mo! What are your instructions?"

"I'll give you half an hour! Go and gather the guys in the combat squad! Then go to Colonel Phelps and borrow a platoon of combatants."

"Yes!"

William turned around and went to carry out the order. He also began to wash and change clothes. By the time Mo Xingchen, dressed in tight clothes, appeared on the playground, a force of about 40 people had already assembled.

Mo Xingchen snapped his fingers and pointed at the branch gate.

"Target Island No. 1, set off!"

Looking at William standing in the front row, holding a large stack of wanted warrants in his arms, he waved at him.

"William, you only need to tell me about the pirates with a bounty of more than 10 million."

"Yes!"

Mo Xingchen plans to start from Island No. 1 and sweep directly to Island No. 29. No matter who meets him, it can only be said that they are unlucky!

He also had no intention of learning about the life experiences of these pirates in detail. Pirates are a group of people who do not produce anything. How do you expect them to survive?

You said that some pirates just want freedom, they won't hurt others, and their source of income is also robbing other pirates. Good! I understand that they don't want to be a navy for freedom, but why not become a bounty hunter? Do they have to fly the pirate flag?

After all, there is only one person like Luffy in the world. The key is that Oda has to draw it this way. The protagonist can't be a bad guy who burns, kills, robs, and does all kinds of evil! He also has to support his family.

So Luffy is just a savior under the guise of a pirate, but he is nothing but a pirate!

Chapter 16 Eyes will

Mo Xingchen led a group of soldiers and entered Island No. 1 without any trace. He originally thought that the situation inside was dirty, messy and poor! What he didn't expect was that the so-called lawless place could be regarded as orderly.

It was not until he saw an ordinary restaurant waiter with a knife on his waist and a body like a real bodybuilder that he suddenly realized that it seemed that the people who could open a shop here were not simple!

Maybe ordinary people won’t come here, but powerful gangs or people with strong personal power will not give up such huge benefits. After all, it’s easy to make money from pirates!

It seems that the local gangs have jointly promulgated some underground rules that are not too excessive, and the pirates should have tacitly accepted these rules.
