Chapter 174 Akainu is beaten
It was still dawn, and Fredek was completely awakened by his biological clock. He had always gotten up at this time to do things on the pirate ship before, and he was the earliest person to get up on the pirate ship. Fredek walked to Vic's side, and the sound of his footsteps woke Vic up.
"Why are you up so early? How does it feel to be a sailor?" Vic asked with a smile.
"I'm used to getting up early. I feel very fulfilled on the warship. I like this feeling!" Fredek replied seriously.
"That's good. I was worried that you wouldn't get used to life in the navy. This voyage will last for about five months. This time you can lay a good foundation!"
"I'm so used to it. There's food and drink here, and all I have to do is train and become stronger. This is a life I could never have imagined before!"
"Haha, it's okay. This is still the training period. If my strength is really strong, I won't even need to train. I'm working towards that goal now!"
"Captain! Are you still not considered a strong man even though you are so strong?"
"Of course not. I am only a top-tier third-rate person at best. There are still many people suppressing me, so I dare not slack off at all, just to step into that field as soon as possible!"
"Then I am far behind. I will have to work hard to catch up with the captain!"
"You have the Observation Haki that can foresee the future, so your starting point is much higher than mine. I started practicing at the age of ten, and I have been practicing every day for seven years. I believe it will not take you seven years to reach my current strength. Keep practicing!"
......
Vic and Fredek talked a lot, and Vic introduced a lot of common sense and secrets of the sea, as well as some magical places on the sea, which surprised Fredek. He had poor eyesight before and missed a lot of things. After Vic's words, he realized that his life was really muddled before.
As other people on the warship got up one after another, the training on the warship returned to normal. Vic and Ian were still sitting in a row, like two statues.
"Vic, I just received a call from Sengoku from our headquarters, saying that something happened on Garp's way back after completing his mission in the New World!" Zephyr came to Vic and said meaningfully.
"Oh, what could have happened to old man Cap? Could it be that he fell asleep while standing on the bow and fell into the sea, and was never found?" Vic opened his eyes and asked curiously. Zefa told him about this, and it was obviously related to him, but he still joked.
"Haha, Garp did have the experience of falling into the sea while sleeping before, but this time it's not about that, it's about you!" Zefa said with a smile.
"It's related to me? What does it have to do with me?"
"Garp heard that you were beaten by Sakaski at the headquarters, so he beat up Sakaski when he passed by the G1 branch, saying that he wanted to vent his anger on you.
Sakaski got a big bump on his head. Zhan Guo asked me to tell you that Garp has already taken revenge on you. You should stop looking for trouble with Sakaski. When will the cycle of revenge end? "
Zefa relayed Sengoku's words. Sengoku was also very concerned about the stability of the navy. He would pluck a feather from a seagull if it flew by, and would make use of everything.
"Then I was beaten up by old man Garp for nothing. The incident had been settled, but it was Sakaski who stirred it up again. I am not strong enough now and cannot beat him. I will naturally look for him when I can beat him!"
Victor's revenge on Akainu is not just for the sake of getting back at his former lover. He is not that childish. If there is a grudge that cannot be resolved, he will kill directly.
Akainu's previous bullying of the weak just gave Wick an excuse, an excuse to continue to undermine his prestige. As long as Wick defeated Akainu with the rank of lieutenant admiral or major admiral, Akainu would have no face to compete for the position of marshal. By then, the navy led by Aokiji might be different.
"I am just delivering the message. I will not interfere with what you want to do. Of course, Zhan Guo's words were also in a persuasive tone. He did not give a strong order. You can handle it yourself!"
"Well, I understand, teacher."
To be honest, Vic is really grateful to Grandpa Cap, who has always been considerate of him and has been helping and protecting him behind the scenes. There are only a few people who can make such sacrifices for Grandpa Cap, who has no relatives or friends. Grandpa Cap treats him like his own junior. Vic decides to help Cap find a partner in the future so that they can enjoy family happiness.
In the afternoon, the warships had arrived within the magnetic field of the island, and there were more seagulls in the sky, so Zefa stopped training. The trainees became idle and gathered in groups of three or five to discuss what to buy after arriving on the island.
"Fredek, let Barnett take you to the island to get a pair of suitable glasses and buy you some daily clothes. Just tell him if there's anything you need to buy. Don't worry about money!" Rebecca and the others also gathered next to Vic.
"I'll go with you, I want to buy something too!" Wendy also said. Vic nodded and didn't care. Women have more troubles than men.
"Look, we can already see the shadow of the island!" Rebecca said excitedly. They had been sailing on the sea for several days. Although people in this world were accustomed to the vastness of the ocean, they still had an unspoken attachment to the land.
"This island should be a small island. It doesn't look very big. I wonder if there are many commodities on it!" Barnett analyzed while looking at the shadow of the island.
"Islands like this are the favorite places for pirates to stay. Because there are no organized armed forces to guard them, pirates will be more unscrupulous. Be careful when you go to the island later!" Vic reminded.
This island is very similar to his hometown. There is no kingdom ruling the island, and the forces are relatively dispersed. It is impossible to integrate all the armed forces on the island, so the ability to resist pirates' looting is much smaller.
"Vic, aren't you going to the island?" Rebecca was a little disappointed, and Ian looked at Vic with some anticipation. This was Ian's first time away from the land, and for such a long time. It was not easy for a child of this age not to cry or make a fuss.
"We'll see when the time comes. Even if I don't go, you can still go with me. With your strength, there shouldn't be any danger."
Vic has the ability of observation Haki, so he can cover all these small islands. If he encounters something that interests him, he will go up and take a look.
"Yes, in the first half of the Grand Line, there are very few people who are particularly strong. We shouldn't be so unlucky to encounter people of the level of the Beasts Pirates again. We will be safe!"
Barnett also said that this analysis was correct. In the first half of the Grand Line, people didn't even know what Haki was, and most people relied on the power of devil fruits to commit crimes.
There are a few people who have talents in other areas, such as strength, swordsmanship, etc., but most of those who can become famous are those with special abilities. Only in the new world can those non-fruit ability users who survive be able to shine. Of course, most of the strong people on the sea are still those with fruit abilities, which can be considered a shortcut.
Vic looked at Barnett strangely, wondering if this guy had also awakened some strange attribute. Last time, he attracted Kaido with just one sentence. Of course, he was tricked by Quinn, but Barnett's words were just right. Zoro has a property of being a directionally challenged person, and Barnett would not have the property of a crow's mouth, right? It should be confirmed this time.
As the warship approached, the island became clearer and clearer. There were no large forests on the island. There were occasional small woods scattered around the island, but the height of the trees was less than five meters. Some winding rivers were distributed all over the island, and finally converged together and flowed into the sea. It was obvious at a glance that there should be no large beasts on the island. The temperature around the island was very comfortable, neither cold nor hot, and it was a good place for vacation.
"Look at the dock over there, is there a pirate ship docked there?" The speaker was Wendy, who was a sniper and had better eyesight.
