"First, from today on, live as a navy under my command."

Hearing this, before Evans could say anything, the bald man next to him widened his eyes.

"What? Let me join the navy?"

Xia Le ignored it and suggested the second option.

"Second, the warship turned around and headed for the city of advancement!"

"I will try my best to mobilize my connections and send you to the sixth floor of the most heavily guarded and prestigious prison."

After a pause, he grinned.

"I promise that you will spend the rest of your lives there peacefully without any accidents."

The five people's faces changed, and they all stared at Xia Le, as if to say, "Thank you!"

The result was unsurprisingly that all five chose the first option.

Chapter 42 One Piece

The warship left the Sabaody Archipelago and headed towards the Red Earth Continent Navy's special channel.

As for Xia Le recruiting five pirates, not many people paid attention. After all, it was an old tradition for the navy's high-ranking officers to recruit pirates as their subordinates, and it was fine as long as they didn't make it too public.

The bounty for the five people was quietly withdrawn on the second day after Xia Le had a phone call with Zhan Guo.

As the sun rose, a uniform shouting could be heard from the deck of the warship. Six men in naval trainee uniforms were sweeping and mopping the floor.

T. Peng, a naval lieutenant, was watching the six people work seriously.

Xia Le stretched lazily, looked at the scene in front of him, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and sighed in his heart.

Gradually, he had his own warships and soldiers. His career as a navy officer finally got off to a good start.

"My name is Rosinante, nice to meet you!"

Seeing the new colleague, Rossinanti, who was holding a mop, said with a chuckle.

Originally he was the only one doing the chores, but now there were five more people to share the burden, which obviously made him feel very happy.

"Evans, sniper, 22 years old, hopes for world peace."

"Yagyubei, a swordsman, 21 years old, wants to protect the justice in his heart with his sword."

"Mina, Navigator."

"Kira, I'm a chef and a gourmet. My dream is to try all the delicacies in the world."

"Slo, the shipwright! I want to see the legendary ship spirit."

The five people looked at each other, and under Evans's leadership, they all reluctantly introduced themselves.

"From now on, we are companions!"

Rocinante grinned.

Hearing this, the five people's expressions relaxed and they all nodded. At least the word "companion" made them feel comfortable.

"My name is T Penn, you can also call me T Bone, and my rank is lieutenant."

At this time, T. Peng came over. His zombie face looked a little scary, but his tone was gentle and polite.

"Hello, sir."

The five people were stunned, then said.

"Major General Xia Le is also the highest commander of our team."

"Don't be shy. The sir is a very nice and kind person."

T Pengen zombie had a smile on his face.

Xia Le heard the sound of several people talking, but he didn't care about it.

Friendly communication is beneficial for him to lead the team, not to mention that T Peng En basically describes him from his own perspective, and all his words are praise and admiration.

"The sir was once a noble..."

"In the end, the Celestial Dragons..."

"After joining the Navy, he..."

"Fight against Roger's pirate group and stop the world-famous pirate Pluto Rayleigh."

"Afterwards, Roger said that the commander was a powerful opponent who could not be ignored, and he gave him high praise."

"..."

T. Peng's words shocked Evans and the other four. They kept glancing at the figure standing at the bow. They had not expected that this young naval officer had such a bizarre story, and his experience was similar to theirs.

The warship quickly passed through the Red Earth Continent and entered the second half of the Grand Line.

During this period of time, Xia Le gradually got to know these five people through conversations with the other people.

The first is Ivens, a sniper who has initially awakened his Observation Haki, and can foresee danger, as well as see and accurately shoot more distant targets.

Then there is Yagyubei, who has been practicing swordsmanship since he was a child and has reached the level of being able to cut through iron, and has very strong physical fitness.

Slo, although a shipbuilder, also has good fighting skills.

Mina, not very strong, but has rich sailing experience.

As for Kira, as he said, he is a gourmet who can accurately grasp everyone's appetite, but he is not good at fighting.

In short, with the addition of these five people, the warship became more lively.

"The necessary training cannot be missed. You will lead this group of apprentices."

"Of course, I will also point out your shortcomings."

Xia Le shouted in a deep voice, acting like a superior.

"Yes!"

The seven people stood straight and responded loudly.

In just a few days, Evans and his five other pirates had already acquired the momentum of the navy.

During the joint training that followed, Evans and the others were shocked to learn that the tall Rosinante in front of them was only twelve years old!

"How is that possible? You're only in your teens, but you're so tall?!"

"What did you eat to grow up?"

Yagyubei and Mina shouted loudly.

"Talent, this is talent!"

Rocinante laughed, looking very pleased with himself.

He is tall and obviously has the innocence and a bit of childishness of a teenager.

Just then, Xia Le came over and swung his iron fist.

"Bang bang bang bang!"

After several consecutive punches, everyone had a big bump on his forehead.

"Don't yell during training."

Xia Le shouted.

Evans covered his head with his hands, tears welling up in his eyes.

"Why does this guy's fist hurt so much! It's harder than my knife."

Yagyubei even grinned.

"Captain Xia Le is a disciple of Vice Admiral Garp, and his strength is inherited from his teacher."

Rossinandi took a deep breath and said with all his might.

The training continued, and the few people on the deck could not escape the physical training that they had to undergo as trainee sailors.

Xia Le's guidance and training methods can be said to be scientific and effective. He not only summarized the effective methods of Garp and Zephyr, but also incorporated the scientific nature of the Naval Academy.

T Peng En also joined in seriously, and he made no secret of his admiration for his superior.

After the warship arrived at the second half, it spent most of its time drifting on the sea, except for occasionally entering the fortress for supplies.

At the same time, Xia Le also contacted the headquarters, and after learning some information about the pirates, he started to eliminate them.

Everyone's strength grows evenly during the battle.

Half a month into the second half, a newspaper was thrown from the claws of the messenger bird and landed in front of everyone.

"Goldo Roger reaches the end of the Grand Line, becomes the Pirate King, and names the final island Raftel!"

When Ivan said this, the expressions of everyone on the warship were shocked.

"Roger becomes the Pirate King!"

Slo was shocked.

Xia Le narrowed his eyes slightly, he remembered that he had mentioned this teacher in a conversation with Ka Putonghua not long ago.

The whole world was shaken at this moment, and newspapers were everywhere, spreading around.

At this moment, the Den Den Mushi in my arms rang.

"Teacher Garp."

Xia Le answered the call and said in a deep voice.

"You should have seen the latest newspaper, right?"

Garp's voice came, his tone was a little heavy and tired.

"I see!"

Xia Le nodded.

"I chased him for two years, but in the end I still couldn't stop him."

"I have to say, this guy is really amazing, even though he is seriously ill."

Garp laughed, his voice somewhat helpless.

"I originally thought that after he became the Pirate King, he would do something unimaginable."

"But I didn't expect that Roger disbanded the pirate group."

"Now, where is this guy? I can't find him at all!"

Hearing this, Xia Le laughed and said, "Then you can rest for a while."

"Hahahaha, you little brat, do I, your teacher, need a rest so badly?"

Garp cursed with a smile.

The master and disciple chatted for a while, with Xia Le listening most of the time, while Garp was recalling the constant battles and chases with Roger over the years.

From the Valley of the Gods, all the way to not long ago, Roger became the Pirate King.

Finally, Den Den Mushi hung up.

Xia Le fell silent.

He knew that when Cap was telling the story with Roger, he was also telling the story of his own life.

One can also hear confusion and a hint of regret about the future in the teacher's words.

What is he regretting?
