The best kind of pirate hunter

Chapter 4 He Was Rejected Too Many Times That Year
Just as Hermes was researching the future direction, the convoy stopped suddenly.

When they came to the first checkpoint, they had to collect tolls. There were all kinds of gangsters, gangsters, bandits, etc. running around. There were a lot of people, but it was resolved quickly.

It means that the Chamber of Commerce that Hermes followed still has a few brushes, no wonder the fees are so expensive.

But what happened next was an eye-opener for Hermes.

Within two days, the convoy encountered bandit groups at least six times, pirate groups five times, and state agencies collected taxes eleven times, and this has not yet reached the eastern navy branch.

There were almost conflicts several times, but they were all resolved by the leader in the end.

Some use force, some use money. After all, this caravan is not big or small, and there are fifty or sixty escorts.

Finally on the third day, the caravan came to the eastern region.

The environment here is much more peaceful than that in the west. Although there are also sneaking, killing and looting, but compared to the west, it is simply paradise.

The biggest reason may be that there is a navy branch here, and no force dares to take the initiative to provoke it. After all, the power behind the navy is earth-shattering.

It can be said that the current Prodence Kingdom is relatively safe and stable in this area, and other places are in chaos or war.

Hermes left the convoy. He planned to stay in the east for a while to see if he could sneak into the Navy Division. Maybe there would be unexpected gains in it, such as Type [-].

During the period, you can also hunt and kill pirates and bandits in the surrounding area in exchange for bounties, and at the same time hone yourself.

"Takoyaki, thirty Baileys, five or six skewers."

"Udon noodles, never use overnight noodles, handmade, only [-] Baileys per bowl."

Walking on this bustling street, there are vendors shouting on both sides, and the taverns are also overcrowded.

Hermes walked towards the naval base while eating takoyaki, exchanged the bounty first, and then found a hotel to relax.

The entire naval branch is located at the mouth of the coast. It is not very grand, but there is an inexplicable sense of righteousness. You can see many sailors in uniform or resting back and forth.

For civilians, sailors can really give them a sense of security.

"stop."

"This is a naval camp, no approaching."

When approaching the gate of the camp, two sailors on guard stepped forward with serious faces, looking at Hermes with vigilance in their eyes.

Based on this alone, it can be seen that the rigor of the chief of the naval base is not some corrupt and inactive naval general in the anime.

"I'm a pirate hunter, in exchange for a bounty."

Hermes was very calm, and handed the package in his hand to the sea soldier.

"Pirate hunter?"

The sailor on the left glanced up and down at Hermes, with scrutiny in his eyes and a subtle sense of superiority at the same time.

The sailor on the right took the package and frowned slightly at the head of the person inside. He didn't suffer from nausea and vomiting like the recruits. Obviously, the two sailors on guard had some experience.

It's two corporals.

"Wait a minute, I need to confirm."

Spando was too disappointing, and the reward was only 460 million. The two corporals didn't know each other at all, so they had to go back to the base to check the reward.

"can."

Hermes shrugged, still standing where he was.

With the departure of the sailors on the right, the air became quiet all of a sudden, thanks to the fact that there were navy troops coming in and out of the base so it didn't look awkward.

Hermes looked at the gate of the camp silently. Although he couldn't see anything, he could vaguely hear the sound of training inside. If he was lucky, there must be something he wanted inside.

"Sir, may I ask who is the highest officer here?"

Hermes began to collect some information, and would start invading here tomorrow morning. It stands to reason that an organization's training is usually in the morning, and that's when he steals the teacher.

"Why do you ask these, a pirate hunter?"

The corporal was expressionless and stood very straight.

"If there are no accidents, I will come here very frequently in the future."

Looking at the smiling Hermes, the corporal was silent for a moment and said, "Our highest officer is Lord Bastan Yogel, the captain. Because of the captain, the eastern part of the Kingdom of Prodence is so peaceful. The surrounding Pirate Mountain Even thieves dare not act recklessly."

Hermes could clearly feel the pride and admiration of this corporal.

"Captain."

Hermes murmured in his heart, to be able to become the highest officer of a naval branch, is still in the new world in the second half of the great route, not to mention the size of this naval fortress, just being able to gain a foothold is already quite remarkable.

You should be able to know the Six Styles, but you don't know that the props are not domineering.

If the captain possessed the domineering aura of knowledge, his next actions would be a bit troublesome.

Compared with admirals, lieutenant generals, major generals, colonels, lieutenant colonels, and majors, the mainstay of the navy, captains may not be enough to see, but in some remote low-end games, captains are also giants, and even mid-level games can be said to be good. words.

Especially in the miraculous organization of the navy, there are always a few unreasonable existences, such as military rank and combat effectiveness are not linked.

Maybe this captain is just a captain, but his combat effectiveness is likely to have reached the level of major, lieutenant colonel, and colonel. Such existences are not uncommon in the navy.

Among them, the most famous is Wannian Lieutenant General Monkey D. Garp, whose combat effectiveness is still a mystery.

This is just based on pure physical skills, and if some weird devil fruit abilities are added, it will be even more impossible to judge.

Hermes just hoped that this captain must not be knowledgeable, and he has also mastered the six styles, the more the better.

At the same time, he will personally guide his subordinates to train from time to time, so that it will be more convenient for him to steal the teacher.

I just hope that the reality is as beautiful as imagined, and not so cruel that I am incontinent.

"You are very good. You actually hunted down Spando, the captain of the Broadsword Pirates with a bounty of 460 million. This is a bounty of 100 million Bailey."

soon.

The corporal who went to confirm the reward came out.

The reason for saying this is because Hermes looks very young, at most seventeen or eighteen years old. On the sea, some strong men are already famous in the sea at the age of seventeen or eighteen, even at the top of the pyramid .

But such people are rare, almost none in ten thousand.

Among all living beings, this age group is more ordinary.

In the view of this corporal, Hermes is very powerful and has potential to hunt down a pirate with a bounty of 460 million at this age.

Regardless of the method used, in short, killing the opponent is the skill.

Sometimes fluke and luck are also a kind of strength.

Hermes took over 100 million Baileys, and he was not stupid enough to ask why there were only 100 million Baileys. This kind of thing has been tacitly understood in his previous life.

I have never seen a pig run, but I have also seen a pig spring up.

"Interested in joining the Navy?"

Seeing that Hermes was about to leave, the corporal extended an olive branch.

The navy is very willing to accept people with a certain talent like this.

If it was just that year, Hermes would have agreed without even thinking about it, but now he would only respond because he was rejected too many times in that year.

It's not that he is narrow-minded, but that he no longer needs it now.

He does not have the lofty ideal of saving all living beings and spreading the light of justice all over the world. This great mission should be entrusted to others.

Freedom is what he pursues.

I was depressed for a long time in my previous life, and my heart was always dark. In this life, I have to be clear-headed and do whatever I want.

Otherwise, why travel through time?Continue to be poor and unsatisfactory?
"Thank you, but I prefer freedom."

Hermes turned around and waved his hands, leaving behind a chic back and gradually going away. .
