The Paper Fruit Among the Pirates

"Grandpa, I'm sorry."

"I've been worrying about you all this time..."

Facing the 'mobile phone paper' in his hand, the burly silver-haired old man was speechless with his lips trembling, his fists that could move mountains and seas trembled like Parkins syndrome, and the expression on his face didn't know whether to be crying or laughing.

Snapped,

One hand holds the cell phone paper, and the other hand covers his forehead to cover his face. Big drops of tears slid down the cheeks, it was Karp's hoarse voice.

"Little Roman, tell me it's not true."

"Grandpa, I'm really Ace! I—"

"Let me explain," Roman interrupted Esa on the other side of the phone, no, Ace's anxious words, "No matter how you explain it, Teacher Karp will think it's a recording, or even hallucinations or something."

so so, so so...

"So, this is the ability of the devil fruit?"

"That's right," Roman nodded affirmatively after explaining his top operations to Lieutenant General Garp.

"Mr. Garp, you also know that the navy had to kill Ace and Whitebeard, otherwise it would be disgraced in front of the whole world."

With Roman's various abilities, it's not that he doesn't have the ability to take Ace alive. But in that case, the Navy will never let it go. The Aokiji and Kizaru who have been paddling will definitely go all out immediately, and the Whitebeard Pirates will only suffer more casualties.

And if you want to play "drop bag" or something in front of Akainu, it is insulting Akainu's knowledge and arrogance. so:

"So, I used my ability to help Ace escape from feigning death. Now he is the acting captain of the Whitebeard Pirates, 'Esa',——Mr. Karp, don't accidentally say something wrong."

Facing Roman's exhortation, Karp, who was in a good mood and "shown his true colors", threw the cell phone paper aside, and picked his nose casually.

"These two little bastards have made me lose my mood recently! Make everyone become lousy."

"Come on, go on!"

Facing Garp in a fighting pose, Roman had a black question mark on his face. Didn't I already learn...

"Wahhahaha, stop talking nonsense and watch the punches!"

The casserole-sized fist in Roman's pupils rapidly enlarged.

I——

"Colonel Roman...?"

"Boss, are you... all right?"

When Major Iska and Captain Polkin found the training ground after the report work and the limelight in front of the reporters were over, what they were facing was:

"Boss, do you have any last words... Cough, do you need us to call a doctor?"

The entire training ground seemed to have been bombed by shells, with huge pits all over the ground! These pits are Roman's failed attacks, and Lieutenant General Garp's fist:

Of course it all fell on Roman!

Even the armed domineering that Roman had just upgraded was just enough to keep him in a 'human form'.

"Don't panic, this is just normal domineering training."

The horrible, unrecognizable Roman replied calmly. Isn't it normal to be beaten in training? See my life return--

Hey, I don't have enough energy, I'd better lie down for a few more minutes.

"Boss is really hard-working, no wonder everyone is the same age but achieves the position of colonel."

"Yes, yes, they were all beaten into pigs—ahem..."

"As expected of the boss, you can keep your face like this!"

"Yes, that's amazing~~"

Facing a group of second-generation people who said "admiration" but winked, Roman chuckled.

"Since everyone is so caring, let me give you a training session on 'Domineering' in a while."

"It just so happens that I just got a 'hands-on' from Lieutenant General Garp."

? ? ! !

In an instant, the faces of a group of the second generation who were gloating at other people's misfortunes all turned liver-colored. Already starting to think about the tragic future of being beaten to twisted limbs and face like a pig's head...

"Ahem, I see that the boss's training is also very hard. Why don't you go to the shampoo place with us to relax..."

"Yes, yes, the so-called combination of work and rest is the right way!"

"I'm a treat, no one should grab it from me!"

"I know that one day...big...white..."

?

You 'relax'—is he regular?

"Jinglingling~~"

"Jinglingling~~"

? ?

Just when a group of people turned around to look over, the slender and beautiful girl Iska had already walked to a pile of papers not far away, and calmly picked up a piece of paper with ears and a mouth.

"Hello, this is Major Iska listening to the phone."

? ? ?

"Who are you?"

In an instant, a crisp voice full of suspicion came from the paper. ——Of course the only ones who can ignore Roman's 'permission' to call are:

Nami.

"I am Major Iska of the Navy Headquarters..."

"Where's Roman?!"

Facing the anxious voice, Iska answered seriously.

"Colonel Roman has just finished domineering training and is resting next to him."

"Please-Jean-Roman-Colonel-listen-telephone-call!"

·······

"Let's go, Iska!"

"Boss, let's go first~~"

"Talk slowly, we won't invite you."

"It's pitiful, Boss, the grape trellis in the backyard is about to fall..."

? ?

These bastards!

"Nami, it's me."

"Colonel Roman, who was the beautiful secretary just now?"

?

When did you and Sanji learn how to listen to people? No no no, the key point is not here.

"It's not the secretary, it's Major Iska of the Navy Headquarters."

Roman, who had regained a little strength, got up and stretched out his hand. The paper folded to the height of a person came over to form a jacket, and at the same time, the life force in the blood bottle paper flowed into the body, giving Roman enough physical strength:

"Life returned!"

As the skin and muscles twisted, Roman, who had just been beaten by Lieutenant General Garp, regained his former appearance. It's simply a magic skill!

"You know, I recently joined the Navy."

Regarding his plan, Roman did not hide from the Straw Hats. Others also expressed their understanding: as a Roman Tianlong, if he hadn't joined the navy, he would have no chance to appear on the sea in a fair manner.

"Of course I know! But I didn't know that there is such a kind of treatment as a beautiful girl commander. ——By the way, aren't all the commanders of the Navy all uncles with fierce faces?"

When they were on Judiciary Island, the Straw Hats faced two hundred naval officers. Not to mention beautiful girls, they don't even have a mother!

No... Think about it carefully, are those with particularly developed chest muscles...

Nami was startled!

"how could I know?"

Roman, who was on the phone, left the training ground.

"This major was sent by the Navy Headquarters to monitor me, and I didn't choose it myself."

"I don't care, I want to join the navy!"

? ?

"Ah, this...although it's not impossible, but you have to wait a bit first."

In fact, Roman had already made arrangements for Nami who came all the way from Xiaokong Island. ——I'm a dignified dragon, so it's normal to bring a few 'subordinates' into the navy, right?

As for the fact that this subordinate is not very similar to Nami, the "stealing cat" of the Straw Hats, I can only say that they are exactly the same: of course they are twins!

Isn't it natural that the war orphans of the Oikot Kingdom actually have a twin sister?

But even if Roman is a Celestial Dragon, it is impossible for others to believe him just by talking about it. so:

It's time to form your own 'power'.

—————

"Ahem, is this the power of CP0?"

Rob Lucci, who was half kneeling on the ground, looked up at the masked man in a white suit: The other party was just two people, and they suppressed all the members of CP9!

Except for Lu Qi himself, the other former CP9 members are already lying in the ruins. Even with the powerful recovery of the animal-type devil fruit, they still have the power to fight, but it may be a bit unrealistic for all of them to escape.

"Do you realize the gap between us? Former CP9 genius, Rob Lucci."

"Genius? Huh—"

With a self-deprecating snort, the stern-faced Lu Qi stood up.

"The escape during this period made me re-acquainted with this sea. Only those who have the courage to challenge! Those who face difficulties can become the real strong!"

A spy who spends his time lurking cannot stand at the top.

Tear!

The suddenly inflated body tore the suit, revealing Lu Qi's sturdy half-beast body.

"Come on! No one's going to die here today! I'll keep—"

Facing Lu Qi who was about to go all out, the man in the white suit and mask just took out a white one from his arms:

Handkerchief?

It was thrown in front of Lu Qi, and Lu Qi subconsciously caught it. Pupils shrink!

The sign above is……

"You're qualified, former CP9 members."

?

"Come with me."

The man in the white suit and mask turned around.

"There is an 'adult' who wants to see you."
