I, a Celestial Dragon!

Gawain continued his work as usual. He sat upright in a metal rocking chair, using electric current to energize the metal ingots that were piled up beside him waiting to be smelted, transforming them into the required quality and shape.

Although Ace can heat and melt metal, he has no ability to control the shape of metal.

Therefore, Gawain's process was ranked after Ace's.

Normally, Gawain should have continued to work on the metallurgy while listening to Kalifa telling him the latest intelligence.

For example, in the past two months, a small-scale battle broke out between the Kaido Pirates and the Big Mom Pirates.

The reason is that Big Mom plans to let Kaido's daughter marry her son.

But this proposal was ruthlessly rejected by Kaido, so the two men fought each other.

In addition to intelligence on pirates, what kind of achievements the navy has made recently, and who has fought against whom among the major member countries of the World Government, etc.

After Xia Qi integrated the Xuanniao intelligence department for more than three months, information like this became more and more abundant, so much that Gao Wen could hardly read all of it.

In addition to this information, the navy also responded to Gawain.

That is...Zeffer's response!

When asked by Gawain to invite Zefa to serve as an instructor on board, Zefa refused without mercy. He even said that even if he died, even if he jumped from the naval headquarters into the sea and drowned, he would rather not go on some strange ship!

Even when Akainu personally invited him, he beat Akainu out.

Akainu and Kizaru are Zephyr's first disciples, and Zephyr has special meaning to them.

If Zephyr just doesn't agree, then Akainu can't do anything about it, so Zephyr's matter is put on hold for the time being.

Upon hearing the news, Gawain couldn't help but look up and say to Kalifa while working on his metallurgy.

"I had already guessed what Mr. Zefa would say. If I hadn't personally invited them, it would be impossible for them, the older generation, to give me face.

Zefa is currently at the Navy Headquarters, right? So how about this..."

Gawain thought for a moment and motioned to Kalifa to write it down, only to hear his decision.

“After we return from the East China Sea, I will take some time to go to the Navy Headquarters in person and invite the old man who would never board my ship even if he died in the headquarters.

If he were to be the instructor of a young man like Ace, with the ability of Ace's fruit, he could at least become a navy admiral-level fighter!

After all, this old man already has three naval admirals, two candidate admirals, and a series of outstanding lieutenant general disciples.

There is no other master in the world who can train as many outstanding people as he has!"

After Gawain finished speaking, he watched Kalifa write it down, then he turned back and focused on metallurgy.

But less than half an hour after he had been working seriously on metallurgy, another sudden incident interrupted his concentration!

At this moment, Princess Vivi, dressed like a little gangster, was being escorted to Gawain by Rob Lucci with a look of grievance on her face.

Looking at Weiwei, whose face was full of grievance and nervousness, Gao Wen couldn't help but narrow his eyes. The girl in front of him was wearing leather clothes, but the style of the clothes was no different from that of his group!

In addition, she cut her long hair, which was loose when she was a princess, a little shorter and tied it into a blue ponytail, looking neat.

Also, this girl has a huge metal yo-yo with a sharp blade on the edge hanging around her waist...

Just by looking at this look, Gao Wen could guess what was going on in her mind!

So, Gao Wen temporarily stopped his metallurgical work and came to Weiwei.

After squatting down gently so that his eyes were almost at the same height as Weiwei's, Gao Wen asked Weiwei.

"Does your father know that you came out?"

"Hey?"

Weiwei didn't expect that Gao Wen would ask this as the first question, so the speech she had prepared for a long time was directly disrupted.

In response to Gao Wen's question, Wei Wei asked Gao Wen a question in a discontinuous manner.

"Master Gawain, you...you don't even ask me why I came here?"

"Do I even need to ask? You were caught by Lucci all by yourself, and you were wearing a military uniform that doesn't look like a princess at all!

Even a fool knows what you want to do, girl!

I only have one question for you: have you told your father about this?"

"Of course I told him!"

Weiwei immediately responded to Gao Wen.

“I am just a child, how can I escape from the palace without anyone’s permission?

Don't worry, sir, my father won't worry about me. I have always been very independent since I was a child!

What’s more, my father was very surprised when he heard that I was going to join your team. The Xuanniao Group is the best group in this sea…”

"stop……!"

Gawain interrupted Weiwei's flattery directly, and then his right hand turned into lightning and disappeared in an instant.

When his right hand reappeared, he was holding a confused-looking Den Den Mushi.

Gawain waved the Den Den Mushi towards Weiwei.

"I'll call your parents right now!"

As he spoke, Gao Wen pretended to dial a number.

Seeing this, Weiwei was completely stunned.

She watched Gao Wen's actions with great difficulty, one number, two numbers... until the phone number was almost completed, Weiwei finally couldn't hold on any longer!

She quickly called out to Gawain.

"Wait, Gao Wensheng, I...I actually...you don't have to call, I haven't told my father about this yet!!!"

After saying that, he watched as Gawain stopped dialing and turned to look at him seriously.

Weiwei lowered her head in shame.

"I admit, sir, I actually ran away secretly...

I did not tell my father about this...

I mean no harm, I just really want to go out to sea with you!

There are princesses from both the Mermaid Kingdom and the Music Capital on your ship.

So, having me as a princess of Alabasta shouldn't be a problem, right?"

"The question is not whether you can come to my ship, but... you must at least tell your father about this.

Why……"

Gao Wen sighed leisurely and rubbed Weiwei's blue hair.

"This is only the relationship between your father and me. If the princess or daughter of two countries or families with ordinary relations ran away with someone else...

That could even affect the politics of the entire country!"

Speaking of this, Gao Wen couldn't help but think of the little wolf girl's predecessor...

The big wolf girl quietly abandoned her fiancé and secretly got married to the handsome white-haired man from the Long family.

As a result, the world collapsed, dynasties changed, and a bloody game of thrones was staged among the seven kingdoms of Westeros...

Who would have thought that all this was just because the big wolf girl didn't leave a letter for her family when she eloped?

Anyway, after ruffling Weiwei's hair, Gao Wen said to her with a smile.

“From my perspective, I don’t mind you coming aboard my ship. You’re about the same age as Uta and Shirahoshi, and you guys would probably have a lot of fun.

But have you really made up your mind? Can you really bear the feeling of leaving home?"

"Of course!"

After listening to Gao Wen's words, Wei Wei, who was originally worried, felt relieved a little, and she quickly guaranteed to Gao Wen.

“I have practiced martial arts since I was a child, and although I am definitely not as good as you adults, I am really not that bad!

As for the long journey, I have already made preparations. Didn’t I go out to sea with my father before and meet you on Gaya Island?

So, my Lord, please...

Can I...can I join your ship?

I won't be in a bad mood. I will seriously perform my duties as a crew member. Whether it's cleaning the deck or raising the sail, I will obey orders! "

Having said this, Weiwei looked at Gao Wen with a pitiful look.

Faced with this look, Gao Wen sighed helplessly.

He just raised the Den Den Mushi lightly.

"Let me talk to your father. No matter what, you have to at least tell your father where you are.

Please wait a moment!"

"Wait, Master Gawain, don't call my father!"

Weiwei was startled and quickly shouted to Gao Wen.

“I…I can really make my own decisions!

I know my father best. He definitely doesn't want me to be too far away. If he knew, I would be in big trouble!

Sir, please, sir, I..."

"Cough cough!"

Listening to Weiwei's words, Gao Wen raised his fist and gave Weiwei a light slap.

Then he pushed Weiwei aside.

"Didn't you say you would obey my orders? Why don't you do that now?

As for what you said about knowing your father..., do you think you really know your father, little girl?"

After saying that, Gawain left Vivi where she was, and took the Den Den Mushi and teleported to the farthest hill nearby.

After dialing Cobra's number, Gawain waited for a moment, and then Cobra's joyful and energetic greeting came out from the mouth of the Den Den Mushi.

“Respected Chief Gao Wen, my good friend, haha!

May I ask why you called me?

Didn’t we just say goodbye for six days?

Are you missing the customs and people of Albana again? "

"Cough cough!"

In response to Cobra's polite words, Gawain spoke to him unhappily.

"Cobra, Vivi is here with me. This matter..."

"oops?!!"

The moment he heard Gao Wen's words, the Den Den Mushi in Gao Wen's hand suddenly showed an expression of overjoyed joy, yet at the same time, he tried desperately to hide his surprise!

I only heard Den Den Mushi continue to speak to Gawain in surprise.

“How could this child Weiwei escape from my palace without making any noise?

Oh my, this really makes me anxious, hahahahaha.

I am really not a responsible father. My daughter ran away from home for five days before I found out about it, and I heard it from someone else!

And my guards, damn it, they should all go home and grow sweet potatoes!

If they can't even keep an eye on a girl who's only fourteen years old, then they probably wouldn't be able to react if I were shot!

Don't worry, Gao Wensheng, I will replace those irresponsible guards right away!

I……"

"and many more……"

Gawain finally couldn't bear it anymore, he interrupted Cobra and asked him seriously.

"Cobra, I think you should first pay attention to Weiwei's problem. She wants to join my ship. What do you think..."

"Oh my, why did my Den Den Mushi suddenly vomit?

Um, sir, my Den Den Mushi is in poor health. I'm afraid we can't have a good conversation!
