Section 205
"Calm down, Dusky."
A steady man's voice sounded.
The moment he heard this voice, a guy with a cigar in his mouth and his white hair combed back appeared in Ron's mind not far away.
Ron raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
Is it him...
"Chief Smoker!"
Dasqi saw him as if he had seen his savior, and said anxiously: "You came just in time. You can testify for me, right? I am a sergeant at the Naval Headquarters Academy. My resume and intelligence indicate that it is not an empty disaster trip at all. The female swordsman has nothing to do with the guy named Kuina, right?"
"Does this need to be said? How could you be that Kuina? Don't let the pirates fool you."
Smoker, who was holding a cigar in his mouth, took out his ears and said: "The female swordsman named Guina defeated Lieutenant General Ghost Spider. How can this guy have such strength?"
When the sailors behind Dasqi heard this, they all nodded in understanding.
"indeed."
"That's right, Sergeant Dasqi doesn't have the strength of a swordsman at all."
"Sure enough, they just look alike."
"Senior Sergeant Dasqi, I'm sorry, I even doubted you."
Dasqi's mouth twitched as she listened to their words.
Although the misunderstanding has been resolved, why are you so unhappy?
You were actually almost fooled by these pirates. Did it turn out that it was your own strength that proved your identity?
I'm so sorry for being so weak!
When Dasqi was secretly angry.
Smoker had already turned to look at the pirates: "You were the ones who robbed the supplies in those stores and planned to go to the Grand Line, right?"
"No, it's the White Hunter!"
"Run away!"
The group of pirates looked at Smoker standing next to Dusqi. When they heard his words, they were shocked and fled away without even bothering to argue with Dusqi.
"Can anyone else escape in front of me? Arrest everyone!"
Smoker instantly turned into smoke and flew towards the pirates.
With his fists and abilities, these pirates whose total bounty did not even reach 30 million beli were quickly beaten to the ground.
Dasqi took the marines to control and tie them up and send them to the prison of the navy branch later.
Smoker sat on a rock, holding a cigar, puffing away his breath as he watched Dasqi and the others binding the pirates.
"It has been eight or nine years since I came to Rogge Town. I have been dealing with these weak pirates from the East China Sea all day, and my hands and feet are almost becoming dull."
"Should I return to headquarters?"
Smoker thought to himself.
His expression suddenly changed, and he suddenly turned his head and looked behind him.
I saw a figure standing behind him at some point.
A drop of cold sweat suddenly broke out on Smoker's forehead, and he felt horrified in his heart.
when?
I didn't notice it at all...
The instincts activated in the body transcend thoughts in the mind.
Before he could react, he had already punched the man with a white fist.
Pushed by the white smoke, the explosive white fist was easily caught by one hand, and at the same time, a young voice that was quite familiar to Smoker sounded, making him startled.
"Hey, do you want to be serious when you meet an acquaintance?"
Smoker listened to the familiar voice and saw the man's face clearly. His eyes suddenly opened wide with a look of shock on his face.
"It's you!"
"Long time no see."
Ron, with his eyes closed, smiled at him and loosened his grip on his fist.
"Chief Smoker?"
Dasqi, who has short blue hair and wears a pair of glasses, noticed the movement here and cast a curious and doubtful look.
However, Ron's face could not be seen. Most of his face and figure were blocked by Smoker.
"Let's talk somewhere else. I'll wait for you at the pub where we drank before."
After Ron finished speaking, he turned and left without waiting for Smoker to say anything.
Smoker stared at his back.
Sure enough...you are still alive.
Dasqi, who walked up to him, looked at the back of the tall man in a black coat, with a flash of curiosity in his eyes.
"Chief Smoker, is that your friend?"
"Friends? How is that possible? They're just acquaintances."
Smoker said, walking past Dusky and walking in the other direction.
"Chief Smoker, where are you going?"
"Just take a stroll, you can send these guys back later."
Smoker waved with his back to her.
…………
In a tavern in Rogue Town.
Smoker and Ron sat side by side at the counter.
A glass of wine with ice cubes was placed in front of each of them.
"I haven't heard any news about you in the past two years. I thought you were seriously injured by Kaido and disappeared on the sea."
Smoker glanced at him.
When we parted ways in this tavern, he was still a dark-haired boy who had just left the Grand Line and had no reputation.
Who would have thought that it would only be a few years later.
That boy has grown into the young man sitting next to him.
In the name of Traveler, he created major events that shocked the world. Traveler Ron's name spread throughout the sea and became a legend that countless people on the sea feared and admired!
Even though he has not appeared in the sea for two years, there are still many people in the whole sea who firmly believe that he is still alive. Traveler Ron will one day appear in the sea again and continue to write his legend.
Ron, who was holding the wine glass, smiled softly when he heard Smoker's words: "Generally speaking, wouldn't you think that I should be beaten to death by him?"
Smoker took a sip of wine and said, "If you died on Ghost Island, Kaido wouldn't say anything, right? But in the past two years, he has never heard any news from there. "
Ron glanced at him, smiled and took a sip of wine.
Smoker glanced at him: "Did I say something wrong?"
"No." Ron shook his head: "It just surprises me. In my opinion, you don't seem like someone who would pay attention to the situation in the New World."
"This was indeed the case before, but in the past few years, I have been paying attention to the situation on the Grand Line and the New World."
Smoker said while drinking.
He glanced at the young man beside him.
"The previously stable situation of the entire world has been broken because of you, and now it is undergoing great changes."
"Hey, hey, you're talking as if it's all my fault. I didn't do anything at the beginning."
Smoker ignored him and drank to himself: "If I had known that you brought Nico Robin on the boat, I would have stopped you."
"You couldn't beat me back then, and of course you can't beat me now."
Ron smiled and handed the wine glass in his hand to the boss at the counter:
"One more drink."
"Okay."
With a look of annoyance on his face because of Ron's words, Smoker, who was feeling aggrieved but unable to refute, drank all the wine in his glass in one gulp and relaxed a little.
"What are you going to do next? Are you going to continue to be an enemy of the Navy?"
Smoker looked at him and asked in a solemn voice.
"Now that we have become enemies, there is no room for reconciliation. Those guys from the World Government will not let go of me as a thorn in their side."
Ron held his chin in one hand and tapped the counter table gently with the other. His tone was casual and calm, but his next words made Smoker's pupils shrink sharply.
"I'm going to do something big next, and if it succeeds, it may turn the whole world upside down."
