One Piece: The Long Road

Vol 3 Chapter 42: Depart independently

.

"Huh?" Smog was stunned for a moment, and gestured for the navy who ran towards him to hand over the phone bug in his hand.

As soon as he took over the phone bug, before Smog spoke, a deep voice came from the phone bug.

"This is the Navy Headquarters, is that Colonel Smalls?"

Smaller replied briefly: "It's me."

"Regarding this crusade against Rockdale, the upper echelons of the government have decided to award you and Sergeant Dusky and Sergeant Simon the Order."

"The crusade?" Smog wrinkled his forehead. "Hey, wait a minute, it wasn't us who defeated Crocodile, didn't I report it?"

As if he didn't hear Smog's words, the voice from the phone worm continued to speak in his original tone, "Also, since it was Snod Simon who defeated Crocodile, it was allowed to be promoted by two in a row as a special case. rank, and you and Sergeant Dusky have each moved up one rank."

Not far away, after Simon heard what the phone bug said, a surge of anger rushed to his chest, entangled with the qi accumulated in his chest.

What a joke, I beat Crocodile?

"Hey, listen up!" A few blue veins burst out on his forehead, Smog interrupted what the phone worm wanted to continue, and said coldly: "So far, it has been the straw hat that has fought the Baroque Work Club and Crocodile. gang!"

"It's useless, Smog." Tina on the side folded her arms and explained: "The government is going to cover up this incident. You thought that someone within the government would announce to the world and lift the cause of the destruction of Alabasta. Is a group of pirates in a major crisis?"

As soon as Tina's words fell, the voice of the phone worm came out again, as if she had not been interrupted by Smog, and said to herself in the tone she used before: "By the way, please invite three people to participate..."

"Stop joking." Simon angrily interrupted what the phone bug wanted to continue, and hurried to the side of Smog who had a few blue veins on his forehead, grabbed the phone bug with one hand, and said angrily: "Do you think that Do I need the credit of a pirate to advance to a position! No matter what the government wants to cover up, it has nothing to do with me, and I will not accept this position!"

His words were interrupted again, and the phone worm fell into silence. After half a ring, the voice in the phone worm said with the same tone: "Is it Lieutenant Colonel Snod Simon?"

Simon's arm trembled when he heard the words, and he almost accidentally squeezed the phone bug, his face completely cold.

"Lieutenant Colonel? You know, my purpose is to be a general." A coldness like the cold winter popped out of Simon's mouth, "Do you think that before reaching this purpose, I will rely on the credit of the pirates to advance to the rank? ?"

"Stop joking, I don't need it at all!"

The voice in the phone worm was silent again for a while, and then said in a flat tone: "Lieutenant Colonel Snod Simon, the Naval Headquarters is very optimistic about you. For your battle in Alabasta, the Headquarters thinks that you have great potential."

"What does that have to do with me?" The icy face didn't change at all, Simon said coldly: "I only know that in this war, I didn't play any role!"

On the other side of the phone bug, a tall and sturdy man frowned slightly.

This man has a scar that runs across his forehead, thick facial features, piercing eyes under his thick eyebrows, thick lips and a plump nose, very masculine, but when this man frowned, he was originally bland. Qi's scar suddenly turned hideous, destroying the strong masculinity.

"With your current strength, it is very simple to be promoted to the position of lieutenant colonel. If you have any opinions on the position given to you by the headquarters, then go and destroy some famous pirate groups, because the headquarters issued The order will not be changed because of your personal dissatisfaction." The man said in a flat tone, but his face was already a little impatient.

On the other side of the phone bug, Simon's face was so gloomy that he was about to drip water. Indeed, he was only a small sergeant. How could the Admiralty change the order because of his dissatisfaction, even if he did not agree with this position in his heart, but Being promoted to lieutenant colonel is an ironclad fact, and if you want to accept this position with peace of mind, you can only do what this man said and destroy several famous pirate groups.

Smog's expression on the side was also ugly. Seeing that Simon didn't intend to continue, he grabbed the phone bug and said coldly: "We stopped Crocodile? It's because I can't do it, my subordinates only There will be tears!"

"Hey, you! Give me a message to the old men at the top of the government."

"Oh?" The voice in the phone bug said in amazement.

Smog raised his eyes suddenly, and said coldly, "Go to hell!" After speaking, he suddenly hung up the phone bug.

"Smog, you are too reckless." Tina shook her head gently, glanced at Simon with a gloomy face, and said lightly: "As expected, there is his boss and his subordinates."

"Do whatever you want?" The blue veins slowly dissipated from his forehead, and Smoker said, "Who is it who is doing it recklessly?"

Tina stepped back, leaned on the railing, and said, "Really, Tina won't say it."

"Old Smoking Gun."

Simon leaned on the railing with one hand and looked down at the slowly rippling blue waves, his gloomy face had long since been restrained.

"Huh?" Smog raised his head and looked at Simon.

"I want to leave this ship."

"Why?" Smoker asked slightly surprised.

Simon closed his eyes when he heard the words, and after a long silence, he replied, "I want to improve my strength as soon as possible."

"Ugh..." Smog exhaled a puff of white smoke, leaned heavily on the chair, looked up at the blue sky, and said solemnly: "If you leave this ship, will your strength be improved?"

"I don't know." Simon pulled out the epee, lightly stroked the black and translucent body with his left hand, and said lightly, "It's just that, if I want to exterminate the pirates alone, there is only a battle between life and death, my Strength can be improved.”

"So, you've made up your mind?" Smoker asked, placing the cigar in his mouth on the table next to him.

"Yeah." Nodding, Simon replied: "I was thinking about it when I was defeated by Crocodile... and now, I have made up my mind."

Anyway, I'm still too weak...

"when are we leaving?"

Simon pursed his lower lip slightly, and said lightly: "Now..."

"You don't have the knowledge of navigation, don't you know the dangers in the great waterway?"

After hearing the seriousness in Simon's words, Smog's forehead was wrinkled heavily. Although he did not object to Simon's request to sail alone, the urgency made him a little worried.

The day Simon left, Smoker had expected it, but he didn't expect it to be so fast.

"It's because of the danger that I want to do it."

Simon turned his head and looked at the artificial rain-making ship of the Baroque Society, which was even bigger than a warship. Now, the epee seems to be an ordinary giant sword, and those special effects have all disappeared. That is to say, now His epee can't absorb the power at all, and even if he works hard, his strength will basically not increase.

If you want to improve your strength, you can only have a sense of crisis brought about by the realm of life and death.

This is Simon's most accurate idea at this time~www.wuxiaspot.com~Smog silently looked at Simon with a serious face and said, "You are too eager for strength."

"It's not so much a desire, it's a need." Simon re-suspended the epee behind his back, raised his head slightly, and said lightly.

"Forget it, it's your choice, I can't interfere." Smog closed his eyes, "There are no extra boats here, just the artificial rain boat, and I'll give it to you."

"Thanks." Simon looked at Smog gratefully. He originally wanted to make this request, but he didn't want Smog to see his thoughts long ago.

"The supplies on the ship haven't been moved yet. If you are alone, it is enough." Smog said lightly: "Also, ask the navigator to get a record pointer."

"If you record the pointer, you don't need it." Simon smiled slightly, "I didn't think about reaching the next island, so I don't need the pointer."

"Whatever you want, and also, don't you say goodbye to Dasqi?" Smog said casually.

"No." Simon bowed his head slightly and whispered, "That's it."

Tina on the side watched silently. She couldn't get involved in this matter, but she was surprised that Simon didn't record the pointer, but she didn't say anything.

"Don't die..." Smog said suddenly and solemnly.

With a smile on Simon's face, he nodded and replied, "Yeah."

A luxuriously decorated, but very drab room.

On the sofa, the man with a scar on his forehead frowned at the phone bug on the table next to him, shook his head and whispered, "I don't know what those old men are thinking, is it necessary for the man named Snod Simon to take this seriously... "
