Pirates: I started as a navy captain, I became stronger by slacking off

East China Sea, Shimotsuki Village.

A green-haired kid was holding two wooden swords for training and slashing at the target in front of him until he was sweating profusely.

"Hoohoo~"

"Brother Zoro! Come and read the newspaper! Today there is news about the world's greatest swordsman!"

Zoro, who was panting heavily, had his pupils shrink and ran over to grab the newspaper.

"The day before yesterday, Navy Colonel Carl and the world's greatest swordsman Hawkeye Mihawk competed in swordsmanship at the Seven Waters City, the Shipwreck Island..."

"Although both Colonel Carl and Hawkeye Mihawk were injured, there was no winner..."

Zoro silently read the contents of the newspaper, looking at the photos of Carl and Mihawk in the newspaper, and his desire to become stronger became stronger.

"Hawkeye Mihawk, Navy Captain Carl..."

"I really want to fight them soon! Kuina..."

It's a pity that this call will never be answered. Kuina fell down the stairs and died two years ago.

Navy headquarters.

Sengoku frowned as he looked at the report in the newspaper. How could Mihawk, a Shichibukai, attack Carl? How dare he attack the navy?

Thinking of the recent intelligence about the Shichibukai, an idea gradually emerged in Sengoku's mind.

"Speaking of which, this group of Shichibukai was full last year. It's time for them to 'get together'!"

As soon as the voice fell, Sengoku took out the Den Den Mushi, which was specially used to contact the Five Elders, from its hiding place.

......

Last time, Carl, who made a big splash in the operation to capture Kaido, only appeared in the newspapers within the navy, and his influence was limited to the navy.

But now, Carl's handsome face appeared in a world newspaper for the first time, which immediately caused a strong response.

What makes Carl laugh and cry is that he is famous not because of his fight with Hawkeye, but because of his unique appearance.

Some people even put his photo together with the world's most beautiful woman, Boa Hancock, and called him the world's most beautiful man (handsome guy).

Now Carl dares not land on the island casually, otherwise he will face women whose eyes turn green when they see him.

Carl is also puzzled! Before it was not in the newspaper, at most they looked at him secretly! Now they look at him without concealment, and they want to strip him naked.

Could this be the star effect?

On the sea, a warship slowly moved forward.

Carl wore sunglasses, naked upper body, beach pants and the symbol of a big man - dragging a child on his lower body, lying comfortably on a chair, with a parasol next to him.

"Colonel, this is the juice sent from the kitchen."

"Oh~ah...put it here!"

Carl stretched, yawned, and looked at the sea in the distance with sleepy eyes. This is what life is!

Fight pirates when there are pirates, and take it as a vacation when there are no pirates. It's comfortable to get paid for it~

"Colonel, this is the information sent by the headquarters. Why do I feel that there are more missions recently?"

Carl naturally knew the reason, but there was no need to tell Nelson. He shrugged and said, "Who cares! Anyway, there are more missions during this period."

"Okay, don't disturb my sleep, call me if you have something!"

"Yes, sir."

......

Time flies, and the end of the year is approaching. Carl has been fishing for more than two months.

"Ding! The cumulative slacking time has reached 500 hours, and the first stage of [Career Mission - King of Slacking] has been completed."

"Rewards: 10 advanced designated attribute enhancement cards, 1 [Armament Color·External] skill card"

Carl grinned: "Use all enhancement cards to enhance perception."

After the enhancement is completed, Carl's attributes are as follows.

Host: Carl

Age: 24 years old

Physique: B

Perception: B-

Will: B+

Haki: Armament Color LV6 (hardening, entanglement, externalization), Observation Color LV5

Special abilities: [Quiet as a virgin] [Moving like a rabbit] [Son of the sea] [Swordsmanship LV3]

Holy Light Fruit: 23.6% (Awakening progress)

Active skills: Fragile (usable), Shadow Vision (used). "

Carl's strength is still steadily improving, especially in Haki and swordsmanship, which are improving rapidly.

"Colonel! We have arrived at Marinford, please give instructions! ”

“Well, then, let’s disband! Have a good rest!”

“Yes, sir!”

After following Carl for two months, Nelson has grown a lot. At least he doesn’t have to ask Carl for advice on everything.

Carl patted Nelson’s shoulder, turned around and left, and walked straight to the marshal’s office.

......

Knock knock knock~

“Come in!”

Carl walked into the marshal’s office, nodded and smiled when he saw the crane staff beside him, then sat aside and quietlyBeing a handsome man quietly.

"Carl, you have done a great job in the past two months. You have easily taken down four pirate groups with bounties of over 100 million. Your efficiency is really high!"

Carl was stunned. Is this efficiency considered high? How slow are the efficiency of others?

After thinking about it carefully, Carl felt that it might be because he was lazy. He gave up on those pirate groups with little intelligence and infrequent activities and focused on those pirate groups that were more active. How could the efficiency not be high?

He would not be like Smoker in the future, chasing all the way from the East China Sea to the New World for a straw hat.

"Everything is for justice!"

Zhan Guo and He looked at each other and nodded. Zhan Guo took out a document from the drawer and handed it to Carl.

With a faint smile on his face: "Congratulations, Carl. From now on, you are the Rear Admiral of the Navy Headquarters!"

"Ding! It is detected that the host's rank has been promoted from Colonel to Rear Admiral, and the level-skipping reward is obtained: Special-grade designated attribute enhancement card*3."

"Daily task rewards are changed to 7 designated attribute enhancement cards + random rewards*4 (storable), and the probability of obtaining rare rewards is increased to 7%."

Carl's face was happy, and he took the official document from Zhan Guo's hand, feeling happy.

"Major General Carl."

"Here!"

Zhan Guo smiled and shook his head, handing a document to Carl. After seeing the title at the beginning of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, Carl frowned: "Marshal Zhan Guo, this is..."

"That's right, I didn't agree with it, but under the pressure of the World Government, I didn't say much, but their behavior has been a bit excessive recently, and you should have a deep understanding of this."

Originally, Zhan Guo turned a blind eye to the behavior of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, as long as they were a little more obedient and didn't go too far.

But Carl's two encounters with the Shichibukai sounded a warning to Sengoku. It was obvious that some Shichibukai didn't take the navy seriously at all.

Carl nodded quickly. That's right! Especially that Mihawk, he was very bad-hearted. Look at how dedicated Morial was. He didn't dare to attack me even though I killed so many of his zombies.

"So I plan to summon all the Shichibukai members to Marinford for a meeting during the World Conference, and your task is to "invite" one of the Shichibukai to Marinford."

To be honest, the Shichibukai are free to act except for having to accept the mandatory summons of the World Government and paying a certain amount of income to the government.

Even if he is the Admiral of the Navy, he can't mobilize these Shichibukai at will, so Sengoku has been very painstaking for this summons, and it took a lot of effort to get the approval of the World Government.

Carl thought about it again and again and nodded. It was indeed a challenging task.

"Marshal Sengoku, tell me! Who should I invite?"
