Chapter 278 I am who I am

...

"Young Master! John betrayed our Rocks Pirates. In the battle of God Valley, he was just like the Golden Lion Whitebeard and his gang. After snatching the treasures of the Celestial Dragons, he withdrew directly, leaving us alone to cover their retreat. As soon as the captain was killed, none of them thought about how to avenge the captain and only wanted to establish themselves as king. John even wanted to embezzle the treasures that belonged to the pirate group. In the end, we joined forces to perish with him!"

Seeing that the young master wanted to recruit John, the Hook Claw Assassin and the Four-Armed Gunman started to report him.

Gel listened for a long time and only emphasized the four words "embezzling treasures". He thought to himself, it doesn't matter, now your main conflict has disappeared, because all the treasures belong to me!

"Humph! After the captain died, the pirate group was disbanded. What's wrong with me being independent?"

John argued.

Although he was a zombie controlled by someone, he had a chance to come back to life, so he naturally didn't want to be buried again without even having a sip of wine.

He walked up to Gel, knelt on one knee, bowed his head and said:

"I am also willing to continue to serve the young master! As long as there is wine to drink."

Gel nodded. As long as the shadow of a strong man could be found, these six old guys could still play some role.

"That's it. From now on, the six of you will just follow me. I don't want to see any more infighting."

"As you command! Young Master!"

Gel was so proud in his heart that he never expected that he would become the "young master"!

The looks of these six people are too recognizable. They were once notorious pirates. Their reappearance on the sea inevitably attracted the attention of many forces. Those who didn't know might have thought that the Rocks Pirates were going to make a comeback, so Gur didn't waste any time and started changing the clothes of the six people.

Captain Gel, who never gave the enemy any chance, first gave each man a set of waterproof tight combat suits, then customized 6 sets of Chinese mountain pattern armor according to their body shapes, and finally put on the lion-shaped face masks and helmets. Then 6 fully armed iron-clad generals appeared before their eyes.

Gol instructed:

"Remember! Your weakness is that you are afraid of seawater and salt entering your mouth. I have already taken precautions for you to this extent. If anyone is still careless and gets attacked in the battle, I will directly take care of his funeral and will never give him a second chance to revive."

"Yes! Young Master!"

The few of them answered honestly and seriously while happily putting on their new armor.

Originally John wanted to say that he didn't need defense and wearing armor would only slow down his sword-drawing speed. However, when Captain Gel threw a bottle of Red Star Erguotou at him, he immediately shut up and obediently put on his armor with quick hands and feet.

"Ugh! Great! Good wine! Young Master! What kind of wine is this? I've never drunk it before!"

Old drunkard John couldn't wait to unscrew the bottle cap and gulped down half the bottle, burping and praising.

"You have a lot of wine that you haven't tried. Work hard. If you behave well, I can give you a bottle occasionally."

Ger said with a smile.

So stingy!

After hearing this, John was so scared that he quickly screwed the cap back on. The remaining half bottle had to last until the next reward from the young master, so he had to drink it sparingly!

Seeing that the others were licking their lips eagerly, and knowing that there was no pirate who didn't like to drink, Gel could only give each of them a bottle.

"Okay, tell me your usual weapons again. Hurry up, young master, I am very busy."

Ger urged.

"ax!"

"Grapple!"

"Two-handed sword!"

"All guns!"

"A big hammer or a big stick, whatever is big will do!"

"Western swords! Double swords!"

As soon as they finished speaking, they saw Young Master Gel making some random gestures, and then weapons that flashed with cold light and looked very sophisticated began to appear out of thin air.

First, there was a Noxian-style giant axe, a pair of black claw knives, a double-edged two-handed sword, 4 revolvers and a sniper rifle, a mace of the same style as Thunder Bagua, and two exquisite Western swords.

"What are you doing? Take it away now!"

"Thank you, young master!"

The six people happily took their weapons and played with them. They were all experienced technicians. They knew once they started using them that the weapons were at least at the level of large sharp swords. They couldn't let go of them and couldn't stop smiling. Even John, who had just thought that Gel was stingy, instantly changed his opinion of this young master. He was much better than Captain Rocks who could only make empty promises!

"The one with the round head and round brain, you will be called Hammer from now on. The one with the long neck and the big sword, you will be called Long Sword. And you, I will call you Black Claw. And finally you, uh, I will call you Musket!"

Captain Gir, who was too lazy to remember too many names, simply gave nicknames to the other four people except Silver Axe and John.

The four of them did not dare to have any opinions, especially since they had just received benefits, so they could only nod in agreement.

Gel looked at the six fully armed elite monsters with pride.

Only Hammer and Long Sword were a bit out of place, the other four performed very well, especially Silver Axe, who was tall and had a long beard. After he put on the armor of a mighty warrior and took the handsome giant axe, he immediately gave off a sense of oppression of an ancient warrior!

Ger nodded to show that he was very satisfied with his masterpiece.

Then he and Moria did another wave of experiments. They first took out the shadows of the Dover brothers and gave them to Silver Axe to try. As a result, the strength was indeed improved by several levels, but the shadow's fighting style was very mismatched with Silver Axe's own fighting style, which resulted in very unsmooth movements in battle. It felt like a 500-pound strongman dancing ballet. In the end, they found that it was most suitable to use it on Black Claw.

Gel thought to himself that it was no wonder that he had to find the swordsman's shadow to use on the body of the swordsman Longma. It turned out that there was a reason for this. After working hard for most of the day, he had gained a lot.

"Okay, this is all we can do for now. Tesoro no longer needs Doflamingo's shadow to assist in training, so you can use this shadow first. The others can replace it when they find a suitable shadow. The rest is up to you. I'll go check on the others first."

Gel turned his neck three times to the left and three times to the right, then said to Moria:

"Heiheihei, okay Captain, leave it to me."

After sending Geer out of the basement, Moria couldn't help but ask curiously:

"Boss, are you really the young master they are talking about?"

"how to say?"

There was nothing to hide from one's own people, so Gel thought for a moment and replied:

"Locks' full name is Locks D. Gibek, and my full name is actually Locks D. Gel!"

Ignoring Moria's as-expected expression, Gel continued:

"It's not my biological child. It seems that this body may be a technological product made from Rocks' cells. But none of this matters. I am me! I can be sure that this is my will!"

"Heiheihei! That's right! It has to be Boss Gel. Even if Rocks is still alive, he can't make me follow him willingly!"

Moriah started to suck up to the master like a lackey again.

"You are such a talkative kid, please speak more."

"Hey hey hey."

The two looked at each other and started laughing creepily again.
