Chapter 228: Master and Disciple Talk, Adding Another Disciple

"From me?" Karp was stunned when he heard this, and asked, "What does this have to do with me?"

“Because you are one of the people I respect the most and one of the few people in the world who are the best to me.

"If, I mean if, if one day, while the justice in my heart has not changed, I stand on the opposite side of you... I don't know how to face you." Lu Kai asked the question that he had been worried about in his heart.

"Opposite sides? Hahaha!" Karp suddenly laughed out loud, "I still say what I said just now, as long as you uphold the same justice as me, we will never be on opposite sides, unless you change your position of justice.

"I have never been a pedantic person. My outward stance is not important. What is important is the stance deep in my heart."

Lu Kai instantly understood what Cap meant.

For example, Garp and Pirate King Roger, the two people's positions are completely opposite on the surface and they are completely hostile to each other, but their inner positions are very similar, so the two people appreciate and cherish each other.

Now that things had come to this, Lu Kai no longer hid it, and he needed a definite answer.

So Lu Kai asked Garp directly: "Then teacher, what if I really did something that seriously violated the will of the Navy or the World Government in order to maintain the just position of the people first?"

"Hahaha, since it's for justice, so what if it goes against the wishes of the Navy and the World Government? After all, the Navy is not always just. What about the World Government? That's even more so. It's almost never just."

Garp laughed and asked back, “But Luke, you are an extremely smart person, and your devil fruit ability is very convenient.

"So, just do it, but don't let anyone find out. If you're stupid enough to get caught, you deserve it."

A huge stone in Lu Kai's heart fell quietly, and then he smiled knowingly, stood up and bowed deeply to Karp, saying: "Thank you teacher for reminding me, I know what to do now, and I will remember your teachings in my heart."

"Go back with peace of mind. In the next few days, I will sort out the information I have acquired over the years and bring it to you personally next time I go to G1." Cap said.

"Thank you, teacher. You really helped me a lot." Lu Kai breathed a sigh of relief and the smile on his face became brighter.

Today's conversation completely freed Lu Kai of any worries.

After returning to G1, Luke continued to go on missions for the next year, looking for those evil pirates and defeating them.

This year, as Lu Kai's reputation continued to grow, he added two more disciples, one of whom was Sabine, whom Lu Kai had been observing.

Sabin's foundation was not as good as Su Luo's, so it took him a whole year and two selections to join the Iron Army. Unlike Su Luo, he became a member of the Iron Army during its first expansion.

Even though he was Lu Kai's disciple, he was still eliminated in the first 'Iron Army' selection. No one let him off just because he was Lu Kai's disciple.

Since then, Sabin has been holding back his determination and vowed to become a member of the "Iron Army" in the next Iron Army expansion selection. The second time, he finally got his wish and could always be with Lu Kai.

Another disciple of Lu Kai is named Cherno, 14 years old, who joined G1 nine months ago.

Chernow escaped from a lawless place where no one was allowed to rule the country, and almost died at sea.

When Lu Kai went to perform the mission, he happened to run into Cherno floating on the sea. He salvaged him and saved him using Fuya's fruit ability.

Originally, Lu Kai had no intention of accepting Cherno as his apprentice, but Cherno insisted on taking Lu Kai as his master from the very beginning, and was extremely determined.

However, no matter how Cherno begged, Luke refused. Finally, Cherno made a bet with Luke, saying that as long as Luke let him train with Sabine, he guaranteed that it would only take half a year for him to surpass Sabine in strength, and he hoped that Luke would give him a chance then.

Although Chernow failed to defeat Sabin in the end, his tenacious fighting spirit won everyone's recognition and respect.

Although Cherno failed in the first Iron Army selection, he seized the opportunity during the Iron Army's mid-term combat casualties replenishment and successfully joined the Iron Army.

After nine months of comprehensive observation of Chernow, Lu Kai finally accepted him as his disciple.

Cherno's experience was extremely miserable. His hometown was ruled by pirates and the people were living in poverty. In the end, his village was brutally slaughtered because they could not pay the taxes demanded by the pirates.

The island where Cherno's hometown is located is called Fallen Eagle Island.

Several decades ago, the World Government issued a special order that the navy should not interfere in any matter on this island. From that time on, Fallen Eagle Island completely became a lawless place and was even called a pirate holy land.

Many evil dark leaders, cruel pirates, and many wanted criminals who have committed serious crimes are all concentrated on this island.

The indigenous people on the island were enslaved by these forces and became slaves who specialized in serving these evil people.

However, because whoever is the most powerful has the final say on Fallen Eagle Island, it has not always been miserable over the past few decades.

Six years ago, a powerful pirate named Lightman went to Fallen Eagle Island, rescued the suffering people on the island, and even drove away the evil guys for a while.

From then on, the residents of Fallen Eagle Island returned to normal life, and they were all grateful to Letterman from the bottom of their hearts for bringing them this kind of life.

But this situation only lasted for four years.

Two years ago, the great pirate Lightman was captured by Admiral Sengoku of the Navy Headquarters. After this news was published in the newspaper, the Fallen Eagle Island became chaotic again, and one of the victims on the island was Cherno.

Cherno experienced inhuman slavery, as well as rare harmony, but finally returned to his original miserable state.

Therefore, Cherno cherishes peace and tranquility very much, and hates those evil people who only care about their own selfish interests and bully others at will. At the same time, he also hates the World Government and the Celestial Dragons who protect the Fallen Eagle Island and allow the evil people to do evil.

Later, pirates massacred the village, and Cherno was the only one who escaped, so Cherno hated pirates very much.

It was also for these reasons that Lu Kai was reluctant to accept Cherno as his disciple at first, because he was worried that the hatred in Cherno's heart was too strong, causing him to become psychologically distorted.

Besides, Lu Kai always takes the initiative to accept disciples. If he agrees as soon as someone asks, wouldn’t that be endless?

But after more than half a year of observation, Lu Kai discovered that Cherno was not blinded by hatred, but was even kinder. He was genuinely happy to help those in need, so Lu Kai finally agreed to let Cherno become his third disciple.

Lu Kai has very high requirements for selecting his disciples; talent, character and stance are all essential.

Talent is needless to say, because what Lu Kai is going to do in the future will require a lot of helpers. His disciples are all his confidants and the people he needs to entrust with important tasks in the future, so these people need strong strength.

In the world of pirates, talent is important, and training can indeed make people stronger, but no one has ever gained overwhelming strength simply through training.

Anyone who can become a strong person is actually gifted.

This kind of talent is actually very difficult to detect, so Lu Kai secretly invited Dimo, who was able to see a person's bones, to check the talents of his disciples.
