Chapter 112 The first meeting of the chat group
Chapter 112 The first meeting of the chat group
"Next, let me show you my craftsmanship."
Borsalino successfully lit the charcoal fire, holding two skewers of meat in each hand, and smiled at Fubuki.
This is a skill he learned at the Naval Academy. Even old man Zefa couldn't say with a clear conscience that his grilled food was not tasty.
It was a bit too much to mock Borsalino while eating and drinking for free, saying that he was more suitable to be a cook on a warship.
"This isn't a good idea... Everyone has been training very hard..."
Fubuki looked towards the training ground with some confusion. While others were working out very hard, they were leisurely barbecuing here. She always felt that something was not right.
At this moment, the aroma of barbecue had just spread out, and many heroes who were relatively close had their noses twitching slightly. They turned around and saw that it was Speed Flash and HellBlizzard who were grilling meat. They couldn't help but curse in their hearts, and then trained even harder.
Judging from the posture, he was treating the wooden stake as a substitute for Borsalino, and the force of his kick was somewhat tinged with personal grudges.
"Will you eat later?"
Borsalino raised his eyebrows slightly. He had seen many people like Fubuki who said one thing and meant another. But in the end, there were not a few of them who ate more deliciously than anyone else.
"eat!"
Fubuki didn't hesitate at all. It would be a crime not to eat the barbecued food if it smelled so good. The pigs, cows and sheep who sacrificed themselves for this barbecue would all cry.
But this feeling is really amazing, even if Fubuki doesn't really understand what the admiral of the navy means, but even in the One Punch Man world, Borsalino is the newly promoted 9th S-class.
Such a powerful man would actually be willing to lower himself to grill meat for her. Thinking of this, Fubuki's mood suddenly improved inexplicably.
"Come and try it. This is barbecue certified by the chef of the Navy Headquarters' high-level cafeteria. Unfortunately, the ingredients are not good enough, so I can only use 80% of my strength... And you guys don't have to look so miserable. It's just that you've been eliminated temporarily. You won't have no chance to learn the Six Styles in the future."
Borsalino sprinkled seasoning on the barbecue and gave a few skewers to Lily and Yamagata, who were staring at the training ground with envy written all over their faces.
Neither of them could withstand yesterday's high-intensity training, but this was also within Borsalino's expectations. After all, Lily's physical strength was at the bottom among the heroes participating in the training camp, and she only existed as a threshold.
Moreover, he does not have the strong will of an unlicensed knight, so it is not surprising that he cannot hold on to the end when faced with high-intensity training that exceeds his own limits.
It's a pity for Shan Yuan. In terms of pure physical strength, he is already considered good among the heroes in the training camp.
However, Borsalino himself is a speed-type player, and his training method is more inclined towards speed-type players. Those who rely on strength to make a living are not popular with him.
Even the vest vegetarians, who are also strength-type people, can only persist by relying on their physique far superior to that of the mountain ape.
"Master Borsalino, when does the next training camp start?"
Lily and the mountain ape looked at each other, and finally Lily, who was obviously more likable, asked in a low voice.
They have been eliminated in this session, but when the next session begins, with the experience of this time, they believe they will be able to persevere to the end.
"No...it depends on fate. But I still suggest you learn from others. There are still several people in the Fubuki group who have not been eliminated. It's the same if you let them teach you later."
Borsalino originally wanted to say that there would be no next session, but considering that he had a pretty good time in the One Punch World, and the difference in the speed of time flow between the One Punch World and the One Piece World, it would be a good place to go on vacation.
Not to mention the sisters Tornado and Fubuki. Who knows when he will come again in the future, and it would be natural to hold another training camp at that time.
“Will Eyelash make it through boot camp?”
Lily was a little worried. On the third day, out of the dozen or so members of the Fubuki group who had participated in the training camp, only four people were left, including the former member Glasses.
Although Eyelashes is the second among the B-class heroes and the strongest in the Fubuki group after the big sister Fubuki, it is hard to say whether she can hold on to the end.
Judging from the elimination ratio alone, the members of Fubuki's group seemed too useless. However, considering that they were all B-level heroes and were originally ranked at the bottom in the training camp, it was not surprising that they occupied most of the elimination spots.
"...It should be possible. That guy has a good physique and will, but his personality seems a bit weak. It's hard for him to be independent..."
Borsalino couldn't quite remember who Eyelash was, and after glancing at the heroes who were kicking the stakes, he remembered who Lily was talking about.
At this time, Eyelashes had taken off his suit and changed into sportswear suitable for sports and wear-resistant, just like the former member of the Fubuki group, Glasses.
In this kind of ultra-high-intensity training, even the slightest disadvantage can lead to failure, let alone the clothes you wear.
After observing the movement of Eyelashes kicking the wooden stake for a moment, Borsalino was able to roughly judge his current state.
Although he cannot be compared with old man Zefa, a senior instructor who has taught countless navy men, but with his powerful observation Haki, it is still easy for Borsalino to predict whether Eyelashes can pass the training.
"That's good. If no one from the Fubuki group passes, I'll lose all my face..."
Fubuki breathed a sigh of relief. She didn't want to have to work so hard to invite Borsalino to join the Fubuki team, only to fail to get him to join. It would have been too tragic that the Fubuki team didn't get any benefits at all.
"By the way, have you prepared a gift for Master Zhang?"
Borsalino distributed the remaining skewers to the remaining members of the Fubuki crew and prepared to send them away.
The team members were also very conscious and walked as far away from each other as possible so as not to interfere with the love between Lord Borsalino and Lady Fubuki.
Lily, who had been following Fubuki, even smiled secretly like an auntie, just like a mother who had finally married off her older daughter.
However, in such a special environment as the One Punch Man world, most girls do get married at a relatively early age. Fubuki, who is 23 years old and still single, is considered late, and Tornado, 28 years old, is simply an older leftover woman.
"Well, Ai-chan helped me pick out some medicines, and we will send them to Master Zhang together when the time comes."
Fubuki chose to cling to her best friend Haibara Ai. It has to be said that Haibara Ai's idea was indeed very good, and it targeted Zhang Sanfeng's world and his personality.
If it wasn't too much trouble, Borsalino would have wanted to change the gift.
Compared with drugs like antibiotics that can save countless lives, pure gold, an extremely precious treasure in the eyes of the Five Elders, is probably not as good as drugs that can save lives in Zhang Sanfeng's eyes.
"Tsk, Huihara Ai, that girl is really smart..."
Borsalino thought about it and realized that there was no shortage of strong girls around him. There were more than one such as Esdeath and Gion who were comparable to the admirals of the navy, but there were few who made a living by their intelligence.
Nami, the only one who can be considered intelligent, is just a thief who is clever in making money.
Now that I think about becoming a naval marshal, it seems that I need to find a few pretty girls with high IQs.
After all, even Marshal Sengoku, who was known as a 'wise general', needed the assistance of Vice Admiral Azuru, and Borsalino just wanted to inherit the fine traditions of the navy.
As for why it has to be a girl, and she has to be pretty, that depends on personal opinion.
"Don't you dare to take advantage of Ai-chan!"
Fubuki suddenly frowned and looked at Borsalino suspiciously.
Even though she seemed to be easily hooked in front of Borsalino, that was because Borsalino himself was too good, so good that Fubuki could selectively ignore his philandering shortcomings.
Anyway, no matter how unfaithful Borsalino is, he is in another world and theoretically has almost nothing to do with Fubuki.
But if Borsalino even attacked her good friend Haibara Ai, that would be a bit too much!
"How is that possible? I'm not interested in little girls."
Borsalino rolled his eyes. Ai-chan was actually quite cute, but the current style of big-headed dolls was really not something Borsalino, who tended to be more practical, was interested in.
A legal loli like Tornado is already the limit of what Borsalino can accept; even if she were a little smaller, she would be unacceptable.
While Borsalino and Fubuki were chatting, on the other side of the training ground, Flash finally started practicing Storm Kick.
However, compared to those heroes who still have to rely on kicking wooden stakes for training, Flash Flash can get started right away.
"Curving up a vacuum through a kick? Sure enough, this is a completely different idea from the Wind Blade Kick..."
After Flash tried several times according to his own ideas, he found that it didn't work, so he quickly made changes and tried a few quick kicks using the method taught by Borsalino.
The ultra-high-speed kick produced a sharp sound of wind whistling through the air, and Flash, who was slowly flashing, also gained experience.
"Lanjiao!"
When the first vacuum wind blade kicked out and cut a deep groove in the wooden stake in front of him, everyone's eyes were focused on the shining Flash.
Then came the second and the third!
The vacuum wind blade kicked out by Flash became more and more powerful, and its range became longer and longer. Without considering the lethality, the farthest attack range even exceeded twenty meters.
This move already had practical value, but Flash still didn't look very satisfied.
"Huh... have you already started practicing Storm Kicks?"
Qingyan saw this scene out of the corner of his eye and felt very complicated.
Although he knew that Flash Flash, an S-class hero, was much stronger than him, Qingyan, who always set high standards for himself, always held himself to the standards of Flash Flash.
Even though he couldn't keep up with the other person for now, he didn't want the distance between them to be too far.
However, the reality is that no matter how hard he tries, the gap between A-class heroes and S-class heroes is always so clear before him.
But now it’s different. Qingyan turned to look at Borsalino who was grilling meat and chatting and laughing with Fubuki.
He has already begun to feel the results of Borsalino's training camp. This is just two days of high-intensity training. If he can persist until the one-month training camp...
Thinking of this, Qing Yan's heart became more and more hot, and the force of kicking on the wooden stake became increasingly stronger.
At this time, Borsalino didn't know that he had become the hope of many people. After grilling a few more skewers of meat, he thought it was about time, so he opened the dimensional chat group with Fubuki.
As agreed before, this is the first team-building activity of the Dimension Chat Group. All group members will participate, even Xiao Mei who recently joined the chat group is no exception.
[A passerby who wants to hug Luo Feng’s thigh: Roll call, roll call, is everyone here? ]
[Xiao Lin: I've already prepared it. By the way, is the place over there big enough for Grandpa? Thor will also come with me. It will be troublesome if the place is not big enough...]
[A passerby who wants to hug Luo Feng's thigh: Don't worry, it's OK. I have already asked the real person, he will wait for us in the back mountain. Even if Thor turns back into a dragon, it's no big deal. ]
[Xiao Mei: I'm here too! Cousin Xiao Yan asked me to ask, is it true that he can't go with me? ]
[Graybara Ai: Unfortunately, no. Currently, it seems that only group members and non-humans can travel to other worlds through the chat group...]
[Grayfield Ai: But this is not a bad thing. At least we don’t have to worry about our world being invaded by other people in the group in the future.]
[Kobayashi: Haha, how is this possible...]
[A passerby who wants to hug Luo Feng’s thigh: Xiaolin, you are too naive...]
[Borsalino: Hmm? Is everyone here? When do we set off? ]
[Blizzard: Let's all report our numbers together, so as not to cause trouble to Master Zhang. I'll go first, I'm number one!]
[Grayhara Ai: Two! ]
[Borsalino: Two... Hey, so fast? Then I'm three.]
[A passerby who wants to hug Luo Feng’s thigh: Four, four, four! ]
[Xiao Lin: I am five~]
[Kujo Jotaro: Six...]
[Orochimaru: Oh, the new world is really exciting... Seven! ]
【Xiao Mei: Hey? Eight! I’m Eight!】
[Tony Stark: Hey, there's me too, nine! Mr. Stark is the ninth! ]
[Esdeath: Ten, are there any more? If not, hurry up! ]
[A passerby who wants to hug Luo Feng’s thigh: No more, no more, all are here, @张三丰真人 are you ready? ]
【Zhang Sanfeng: Isn’t it a pleasure to have friends coming from afar? 】
[A passerby who wants to hug Luo Feng’s thigh: NICE! Let’s go! ]
……
[Ding! Zhang Sanfeng has issued a designated mission, inviting @Borusalino to enter his world. Do you accept? ]
[Accept/Reject] [Ding! Zhang Sanfeng has issued a designated task, inviting @passersby who want to hug Luo Feng's thigh to enter his world. Do you accept? ]
【Accept/Reject】
……
Along with a series of group notifications, exclusive invitations appeared in front of the chat group members in different worlds.
Borsalino, who was already familiar with the place, chose to accept the invitation directly. A white light flashed before his eyes, and the first thing that came into his sight was an old Taoist with a youthful face and white hair. He was slightly startled when he saw Borsalino, but quickly returned to normal.
Behind the old Taoist was a little Taoist boy with red lips and white teeth. He saw a white light suddenly appear in front of the master, and then a "god-man" more than ten feet tall appeared from the white light. He was so scared that he screamed.
"Nice to meet you, Master Zhang. I wish you a happy 100th birthday."
Borsalino glanced at the little Taoist boy, then turned his gaze to the old Taoist, and handed over a small packaged box containing a wooden hairpin inlaid with pure gold.
"Thank you very much, my distinguished guest, for coming from afar. It brings honor to Wudang..."
Because other group members were coming over, the old Taoist just smiled and nodded, but he still took the gift personally and handed it to the little Taoist boy behind him.
Before Borsalino could speak, as white lights lit up, the remaining chat group members appeared in the open space one after another.
There is no need to introduce Fubuki who came with Borsalino, and the one who is not much taller than Borsalino's knees is Haibara Ai.
I don’t know if it’s because it’s changed from two-dimensional to three-dimensional, but it doesn’t look like the big-headed doll style that Borsalino imagined. At first glance, it is quite similar to Tornado.
As if she noticed Borsalino's gaze, Fubuki took a step forward intentionally or unintentionally to greet her best friend, but happened to block Borsalino's sight.
"Boss Kizaru! We finally meet! I'm just a passerby!"
As soon as a passerby in the world of Devouring the Stars appeared, he couldn't wait to look for someone. If Borsalino hadn't been kind enough to give him an animal-type devil fruit, the subsequent passersby would not have been able to make a name for themselves.
Even now, his main strength comes from the development of the Animal-type, Gorilla Fruit, Ancient Species, and the King Kong Gigantic Ape form.
"Oh, it's you... Well, you look okay..."
Borsalino looked at the young man who was passing by. He had once complained in the chat group before, saying that he didn't know if it was because of the devil fruit, but now he looked more and more like a gorilla, and even his old friends could hardly recognize him.
Now Borsalino doesn't look as exaggerated as he said. At most, they are only about 60% to 70% similar...
"Really? I said it was actually okay!"
Passersby cried with joy. It must be said that Borsalino's extremely handsome face was very convincing. Even the passersby who lacked confidence relaxed a lot at once.
"Nice to meet you, Borsalino-kun. I'm Orochimaru."
Orochimaru, wearing a Hokage robe and a hat, walked out from the white light. He swept his eyes over everyone, and the moment he saw Borsalino, his pupils couldn't help but shrink slightly.
Although he had long known that Borsalino was very powerful, and had asked Quetzalcoatl and Manabu about their perceptions of Borsalino, when they actually met, Orochimaru found that he had still underestimated this admiral whom he had never met before.
That feeling of threat was even more terrifying than when he was young and faced Hanzo of the Salamander and the Third Raikage.
"Well, it's nice to meet you."
Borsalino spoke with a smile, in stark contrast to the passers-by who had almost shrunk behind him.
"You seem to be afraid of seeing me?"
Orochimaru naturally also noticed the passerby behind Borsalino. Compared to Borsalino, who posed a serious threat to him, the harmless passerby was obviously easier to deal with.
Moreover, in Orochimaru's eyes, passers-by are a well-deserved treasure trove of information. Not only are they well-informed about various secrets of the ninja world, they also know a lot of information about other worlds.
In an environment like a dimensional chat group, the information held by passers-by is inestimable. If he had a choice, Orochimaru would even be willing to exchange more than a hundred ninjas from the Konoha Village Intelligence Department for passers-by.
"Well... Mr. Orochimaru, please don't look at me with such eager eyes. It makes me feel like you want to put me on the operating table for dissection..."
Passersby poked their heads out with dry laughs, but still resolutely stayed away from Orochimaru.
This is the value of a good image. Even if he knows that Orochimaru has no real ill will towards him, passers-by will still be scared to death when facing Orochimaru.
If it weren't for Borsalino's strong backing, even passers-by might not dare to appear in front of Orochimaru.
Realizing this, Borsalino looked at the passerby meaningfully. This guy is not as careless as he seems. Until now, he has not revealed any information about the Devouring Star World in the group.
Moreover, he only gave Borsalino, who was considered to be on the justice side, the permission to go to his world. For a dangerous person like Orochimaru, he would probably kill a passerby without giving him a chance.
In comparison, Esdeath is the real stubborn one. As soon as she joined the group, she asked Borsalino to go to the Akagi World. If Borsalino had bad intentions, big problems might arise.
"Master! I've come to see you. I wish you good fortune and a long life!"
The passersby who didn't dare to deal with Orochimaru face to face took the opportunity to run to Zhang Sanfeng, put on a flattering expression and bowed.
If the devil fruit given to him by Borsalino was the key to his fortune, then the martial arts taught to him by Zhang Sanfeng was the passerby's first pot of gold.
Moreover, as a time traveler, he also has great admiration for Zhang Sanfeng, who is known as a great man who cultivates immortals in the world of martial arts.
"Thank you, passerby."
Zhang Sanfeng had a smile on his face and did not show any displeasure because the passerby looked like a gorilla. Instead, the little Taoist boy was frightened by the passerby and grabbed the sleeve of his master tightly, fearing that the gorilla monster would suddenly open its bloody mouth and swallow him.
"Wow, what a cute kid~ What's the kid's name, real person?"
But the passers-by were not very aware of it. Seeing the little Taoist boy with red lips and white teeth, who was very cute, they suddenly felt a surge of love and squatted down to tease the little boy.
"Qingshu, I haven't met Senior Lu yet."
Zhang Sanfeng smiled and patted his disciple's head, but saw that the expression on the passerby's face froze instantly.
The old and experienced Zhang Sanfeng frowned slightly, but did not say much. He just secretly took note of the strange behavior of the passerby and prepared to turn around to see if there was anything wrong with Qingshu.
"Hello everyone! I'm Xiaolin!"
Soon another person appeared from the white light. It was an urban woman wearing glasses and looking a bit boyish. She was happily waving and greeting everyone.
The speed of time flow in different worlds varies greatly. Even if people travel here at the same time, there will be differences in order.
"I'm a passerby. Over there are Borsalino and Hellblizzard. This is Haibara..."
The passerby who had just been frightened by Song Qingshu beside Zhang Sanfeng quickly recovered and kindly introduced the identities of everyone to Xiaolin, who could not recognize everyone like him.
"Wow! Ai-chan is so cute! Kawaii~"
But before the passerby finished introducing Orochimaru and Zhang Sanfeng, Krillin couldn't wait to hug the expressionless Haibara Ai and rub her little face hard.
Although she looks like a little girl of seven or eight years old, Haibara Ai's adult intellectual temperament is applied to a young child, making her look like a child pretending to be an adult, which gives people a particularly cute feeling.
"Stay away from me! Didn't you say that your dragon was coming over too?"
Haibara Ai pushed Kobayashi away in annoyance. As a researcher, she had long been curious about the dragon maid in Kobayashi's family. It was a pity that she couldn't study what the so-called dragon was through the chat group.
"Oh! By the way, everyone, get out of the way, Thor is coming here in dragon form!"
Xiao Lin then remembered that she had promised Thor that she would bring her here as soon as possible. Who knows if the child would get into trouble if she was not with Thor.
Both Borsalino and Orochimaru cooperated and made way. They were also very interested in the dragon raised by the Kobayashi family.
Soon, accompanied by a white light rising into the sky, a giant dragon that was several stories tall appeared in front of everyone.
Compared with the Q-version image in the two-dimensional world, the three-dimensional Thor looks much more ferocious, and his body shape is more oppressive, even Zhang Sanfeng feels a little uneasy.
Although it was unlikely that the other party had malicious intent, if such a huge monster were to cause harm to the world, he, as the "culprit", would also be to blame.
Zhang Sanfeng, who had never been interested in the many strange things in the chat group, now had some thoughts of becoming stronger.
Such an idea has been invincible to the martial arts masters in the world for decades, and it would be jaw-dropping if it were spoken out to others.
However, no matter how advanced the martial arts are, they are meaningless to the many "non-humans" in the chat group. Even Zhang Sanfeng's best Tai Chi cannot threaten Borsalino, who is comparable to a god or demon.
"Xiaolin, can I change back?"
The dragon's majestic light golden eyes looked down at everyone, and finally fell on the ordinary Xiaolin.
The next moment Thor couldn't wait to speak. Before meeting Xiaolin, he had always lived in the form of a dragon, but now Thor has long been accustomed to the form of a dragon maid, and it is a bit uncomfortable for him to occasionally turn back into a dragon.
"of course can!"
Kobayashi hadn't seen Thor like this for a long time. He was dazed for a moment, but he came to his senses immediately.
"Clang clang! Hello everyone, I'm the maid of the Kobayashi family, you can just call me Thor!"
Under the gaze of everyone, the giant dragon quickly shrank in the light and turned into a dragon maid Thor wearing a maid outfit, with horns and a big tail.
At this moment, Thor no longer had any of the majestic demeanor of a giant dragon. He shook his big tail and greeted everyone enthusiastically.
If it weren't for her horns, tail, and that unbelievable figure, no one would associate the maid in front of them with a dragon.
"Wow, I'm so envious. I want a dragon maid too..."
The passers-by were drooling at the sight. The three-dimensional Thor was a beautiful woman who looked very passionate. Even the horns and tail only added a bit of unique charm to her. Even the beauty detecting radar in Borsalino's mind was turned on at the first moment.
"Huh? Gorillas can talk?"
Thor glanced at the passerby and spoke in surprise.
There were no gorillas in the world where she originally lived. In Kobayashi's world, only humans could speak. When she first saw the passers-by, she thought they were the gorillas in the zoo that she had seen on TV.
"Asshole! Look carefully, I am a human!"
The passerby was so angry that he almost wanted to hit someone, oh, there is a dragon on the opposite side, so it’s okay.
"How did they do that? From so big to so small in an instant?"
Haibara Ai looked at Thor's tail curiously, wanting to know how this tail grew.
However, considering that the other party was a giant dragon, no matter how curious she was, she still controlled herself well.
"Hey! You're all so much faster than me!"
Thor had just turned into a dragon maid when another white light appeared. This time, Tony Stark appeared in the iron suit.
"You're late, Tony."
Borsalino smiled and bumped fists with Iron Man. He had a pretty good relationship with the other party, and if you really counted, he was even a small shareholder of Stark Industries.
"No, no, no, Mr. Stark always arrives at the right time. The party hasn't even started yet, how can you say I'm late?"
Tony Stark shook his finger. No matter what kind of party or gathering it was, Mr. Stark was the absolute protagonist. His arrival was the climax of the party and he would never be late.
"Master Zhang is celebrating his 100th birthday, so forget about any parties. The old man can't handle that kind of excitement."
Borsalino seriously suspected that Tony Stark was up to something. If this guy held a pool party on Mount Wudang, Zhang Sanfeng would probably fight him to the death.
"Come on, this is my 100th birthday! How many people in this world can live to be 100 years old? Wouldn't it be a shame not to celebrate it properly?"
Tony Stark said he couldn't understand it. If he could live to be a hundred years old, he would definitely invite a hundred beauties in swimsuits to have a seven-day and seven-night party to celebrate.
The party had to be held next to the graves of the guys he hated the most, and it would be best if those annoying guys were so mad that even the coffin lid couldn't hold them down.
"Dear Mr. Stark, not everyone likes pool parties as much as we... ahem, like you do."
Borsalino didn't know how to explain to Tony Stark that in Zhang Sanfeng's eyes, a pool party was probably the same concept as King Zhou's feasting and drinking.
If Stark really did expose this, even if Zhang Sanfeng himself had no objection, the Wudang Sect would be regarded as an evil sect that everyone in the world would want to kill.
