Pirates: The Salary Is In Place, The Four Emperors Are Kicked Out

Sakazuki, who was very surprised, took a serious look at Colonel Malvin who was running in front of him.

——He is more than two meters tall. Although he is shorter than himself and Polsalino, he is definitely taller; he has exploding muscles—— The most muscular Sakazuki has ever seen before is the one he lived in before The blacksmith on the island, but the muscle of that blacksmith was a younger brother in front of Colonel Malvern. And yesterday, Sakazuki saw the scars on Colonel Malvern's body. Those scars are a good proof that his muscles are real combat power, not just appearances.

And Colonel Malvin's haircut that has absolutely nothing to do with the quartermaster - Sakazuki met the quartermaster of the North Blue branch when he went to pick up his and Polusalino's Marine uniforms the other day, that little brother The hairstyle of the good student is completely different from that of Colonel Malvern, the social eldest brother.

"...I really didn't think you were a quartermaster, Colonel Malvern."

Sakazuki shook his head honestly.

"Hahaha, you can't judge a person by appearance, Sakazuki, otherwise, wouldn't Polsalino, who can't even get in at Marine Base, be hit hard?"

Hearing Colonel Malvin's joke, even the unsmiling Sakazuki couldn't help but uncontrollably raised the corners of his mouth, "It's also..."

"But then again, in fact, I was not like this before,"

Colonel Malvin said in a somewhat reminiscent tone, "At that time, I was the weakest and the thinnest person on Mr. Sengoku's ship, so I was assigned to the civilian post of quartermaster."

"The so-called quartermaster sounds good, but in fact he is the person who manages the warehouse and distributes supplies. When I found out that I was arranged as such a civilian logistics staff, I was really disappointed. Those who want to be gunners and combatants, after all, which Marine soldier doesn’t want to fight the pirates head-on and achieve justice?…Unfortunately, there is always a gap between reality and dreams.”

After Colonel Malvern finished speaking, he looked sideways at Sakazuki. He wanted to see the latter pondering or sighing with emotion, but found that the latter was looking at him with a very strange look.

"Hey... Sakazuki, what kind of eyes do you have..."

"...Colonel Malvin, the reason why you have changed from a thin and small man to a muscular man now is because, as Polusalino said, it was because you ate a card when you were a quartermaster. want?"

"..."

Seeing that Colonel Malvin didn't speak, Sakazuki nodded even more confidently, "It seems right. If you think about it, it's quite logical-Colonel Malvin, you have to pay for the card because you were the quartermaster, although The man went from a skinny little man to a muscular man now, but it also came to light. You were supposed to be dealt with by the Marine Military Tribunal, but Sengoku Admiral, thinking of your old relationship, demoted you from the headquarters to the North Blue branch... No When you think about it, Colonel Malvern, you will speak out about such a shameful past, don't you not only feel ashamed, but also consider it very honorable?"

"...Sakazuki."

Colonel Malvern stopped suddenly.

Sakazuki also stopped, looking at Malvin with three-point regret, three-point emotion, and four-point contempt.

Colonel Malvin forcibly suppressed his desire to hit someone, took a deep breath, and stretched out his hand to hold the latter's shoulder:

"Sakazuki...I...Laozi thought that the only unreliable guy was that slutty Polusalino! I didn't expect you with thick eyebrows and big eyes to run the boat with your head!!"

"The reason why I'm like this is because I use other people's rest time to practice frantically, not because I'm a Marine worm who wants to eat cards, bastard!"

"Also! I tell you this story because I want to show my deepness as a base chief and a veteran, and I want to educate and inspire you, a young man who is suddenly depressed! Not because I think it is necessary to get a card. It's very honorable to want to show off!"

"Besides, I've never done anything that requires a card! Sakazuki, you bastard, what are you thinking about!!"

Colonel Malvern finished the above like a barrage of guns, and then took a few heavy breaths - not tired, but angry.

Sakazuki frowned, and while wiping off Colonel Malvern's excited droplets on his face, he said, "Don't you make me have a sense of humor, Colonel, why are you so excited, isn't my joke not funny? ?"

"you……"

Colonel Malvern almost didn't come up in one breath, and was about to be pissed off by Sakazuki. But it was also thanks to Sakazuki in front of him, not Polsalino. If it were Polsalino, the emperor would have been possessed long ago, and the ridicule would be full:

——Just say it, why are you yelling so loudly?

However, Colonel Malvin was angry and speechless, but he still did not forget his purpose of telling Sakazuki his past experiences, calmed down a little and said, "Anyway, Polusalino..."

"I'm Sakazuki."

"Ahem, anyway... Sakazuki!"

Colonel Malvin cleared his throat heavily, "I know that the situation on the training ground today is a big blow to you, a proud young man who is determined to destroy all pirates. But you must also understand that whether it is Polsalino, or me, is nothing in the sea where the strong are as numerous as the stars in the sky. There are countless strong people who are stronger than me, or can kill me like an ant. "

"The reason why you will be shocked and hit is just because of your vision problem. Although North Blue is big, it is also very small in the world. You will gradually understand it later..."

"Of course, this is not to say that you are not good enough and want to beat you. On the contrary, you are the best group of young people I have ever met, just like Polusalino. The powerful Logia Devil Fruit has a physique far beyond ordinary people, and it is even more rare that you all chose the most correct path to improve yourself by 'joining Marine'..."

"When I was a thin young sailor, I was hit a lot and hard. But I didn't fall down, but I used the convenience of being a quartermaster to train myself through a variety of equipment and weapons in the warehouse. Although I am still nothing in this sea, I am countless times stronger than the original myself. I am average in talent and luck. I can do this through training, not to mention the talent and luck are very good. What about you?"

"Although Polsalino doesn't seem like a hard worker, I'm sure the reason why he has that kind of strength must have something to do with his hard training. So, Sakazuki, Don't get discouraged by today's events, it's just a small twist on your road to a stronger one."

"Look at the bigger world and work harder! Sakazuki!"

Colonel Malvin, who has never been a life mentor, imitated Sengoku Admiral, who spoke in his memory, and said so many words in one breath, and he admired himself a little.

"...But Colonel Malvin, I came out to get some air, and then I planned to do additional training myself."

Sakazuki gave a rare smile and said so.

"Huh? So you're not depressed at all?!"

Colonel Malvern widened his eyes, "Then I said so much..."

"Still thank you Colonel for your teaching, I will keep it in my heart."

Sakazuki returned to his serious expression and nodded to Colonel Malvern.

Seeing this, Colonel Malvern shrugged and smiled slowly: "It seems that I've been worrying a lot, very good... So, it's two fifty, do you want to run together at night? In my opinion , although the exercise method of running is ordinary, it is really effective.”

"Not today,"

Sakazuki shook his head solemnly, with a serious tone: "I've made an appointment with Polusalino to have supper, do you want to come with me? Colonel."
