Pirate: My partner is too crooked

Who is it that makes people worry, bastard!

Seeing that Aqua didn't have the most basic self-awareness, Lin Zhi calmly retracted his arm.

"Since you are so powerful, Aqua-sama, just walk back by yourself."

"But hurry up. After all, the breath of dead beasts can easily attract other nearby creatures. I'm sure they won't mind having another goddess dessert."

After that, he turned around and left.

When Aqua saw this, she immediately panicked, the pride on her face disappeared, and she crawled towards Lin Zhi's back like crazy.

"I'm sorry! Master Lin Zhi, I know I was wrong. Please don't leave me in this barren mountain!" She cried and shouted with tears in her eyes.

That crawling that is as unruly as a strange walking species, where is there any trace of the arrogance and holiness of the goddess of water?

Naturally, Lin Zhi would not really leave her here, so he turned back with a chuckle.

"Wouldn't it be better if we had this awareness earlier?"

He slowly squatted down with his back to Aqua, patted his shoulder, and said softly, "Come on, it's time to go home for dinner after being tired all morning."

However, Aqua, who reluctantly sat up from the ground, lowered her head and squirmed, making no move.

"Well, Lin Zhi, if I am seen like this by the Axis Cult believers in the village, I will definitely be severely disliked, so..."

"I want to wash my body in the river before going back."

Lin Zhi refused without thinking: "Don't worry, the people in the village are very nice, and they will definitely not dislike you."

After all, in their eyes, you are just a poor child with something wrong with your head!

When it comes to true believers of the goddess, there is probably only one out of dozens of them in the entire Windmill Village.

His name is Monkey D. Luffy, and he is only seven years old now.

After thinking about it again and again, Lin Zhi really couldn't bear to tell Aqua this cruel truth.

"Really Lin Zhi, you don't understand at all. Even if you can get the understanding and tolerance of believers, an excellent goddess still wants to protect her own image!" Aqua retorted solemnly.

Lin Zhi knew that it would be difficult to convince this stubborn water goddess no matter what, so he had no choice but to compromise.

"Okay, I'll wait for you, but you have to move quickly. If another large beast like a big black bear comes, we will have to meet in heaven."

"I know it. Even if you don't emphasize it, I still know it!"

Aqua shouted impatiently, but soon she lowered her noble head in frustration.

"Didn't you see that just now, in order to maintain the support magic, I consumed all my strength, and now I can't move at all..."

At the end of her speech, she kept rolling the corners of her clothes with her hands, and her voice became as weak as a mosquito.

"Huh? You mean, I still want to help you wash it?"

Looking at the dirty Aqua, Lin Zhi had all his reluctance written on his face.

Although Aqua wanted to ask him what his expression was, she restrained herself and nodded lightly.

The cute face covered with mud turned slightly rosy uncontrollably.

well……

Looking at those lovely watery eyes and pondering for a long time, Lin Zhi let out a long sigh.

There was no way, who let him have such an idiot partner?

…

After struggling for a long time, it was already afternoon when we finally returned to Windmill Village.

Lin Zhi put on clean and tidy clothes, sat at the familiar front desk position, and sipped the warm black tea.

The fresh and mellow tea flowed into the abdomen along the mouth, as if it had the magic power to relieve fatigue, making him feel a little comfortable after being tired for a long time.

In the main hall of the restaurant, Aqua, who had regained her energy, was having a great time playing with Luffy who came to eat.

Perhaps because they both have unusual characteristics and have similar IQs, the relationship between the two seems to be extremely harmonious.

In comparison, Lin Zhi is much duller.

After gently putting down the tea cup in his hand, he began to summarize today's impressive practice.

Whether it is witnessing Haki or armed Haki, there is no obvious progress, or to be more precise, it can be ignored at all.

Although there were serious deviations in the process, the result did not exceed Lin Zhi's expectations.

If two-color domineering could be learned so easily, then everyone in Donghai would already have a black sword!

In addition to meeting the standards of physical fitness and skills, what is even more important is the word "dominance" itself, which places high demands on the user's state of mind.

This can be clearly felt from Crocodile, who was keen on foreign objects such as ancient weapons ten years later, and Moonlight Moria, who placed his hopes on powerful partners.

You must know that in this time period, they are young and energetic, but they are big pirates who dare to challenge Whitebeard, draw a draw with Demon Barrett, and fight Kaido of the Beasts!

Because of this, the practice of dual-color domineering is difficult to achieve quickly and cannot be rushed.

However, this does not mean that Lin Zhi has gained nothing at all. At least he can change to a brand new flintlock gun...

Ahem, that's actually not the point.

At that time, after being blessed by Aqua's comprehensive reinforcement magic, his perception ability improved a lot.

Even if your eyes don't catch the big black bear's attack trajectory, you can still rely on your higher-priority breath sensing and listening to make evasive actions in advance.

This also means that as long as he has Aqua's sensory reinforcement, he can enter a state similar to the Haki of Senwense Haki.

Obviously, this personal experience is very useful for the practice of seeing, hearing, and color domineering.

In the same way, Armed Color Haki can also achieve twice the result with half the effort through the help of Aqua!

Lin Zhi raised his head and looked at Aqua, who was pulling Luffy's rubber arm into a knot. Thinking that he would have to take this trouble-making idiot goddess with him for the next few days of training, a sad emotion spread all over his body in an instant.

But, speaking of Aqua.

Although it took this guy a very short time to understand the essence of seeing and hearing Haki, his talent in Armed Haki is quite average, without any amazing performance.

After returning to the restaurant and trying several times to no avail, Aqua just started to mess around and flew away to play with the path where she came to eat.

Lin Zhi's guess about this is that as a goddess, Aqua's perceptual ability is very outstanding, and her mind (mind) is pure. This is in line with the core principle of seeing, hearing, color, and domineering, so she has learned it very well. quick.

The Haki of seeing and hearing may become one of the powerful powers Aqua has in this pirate world!

As for myself...

Lin Zhi's eyes gradually became firmer, and what flashed in the depths of his pupils was his buried ambition.

Of course I want them all!

So, in the next few days, Lin Zhi spent most of his time immersed in the practice of dual-color domineering, and even restaurants rarely opened their doors to accept customers.

With the blessing of Aqua's perception, coupled with the know-how gained from Shanks and Garp, two top Haki users, he has made considerable progress in training.

Although there was a lot of commotion due to Aqua's existence, after countless life-and-death battles with forest beasts, Lin Zhi finally touched the threshold of dual-color domineering.

The new level of knowledge-based domineering and armed-based domineering are achieved!

It just so happened that at this time, the bandits who had been at peace for more than ten days appeared in Windmill Village again!
