Pirate: Crazy Devil Vic

Although Koushiro hadn't spoken yet, Vic could tell that he was in a much better mood at this time.

After all, no one likes to hear good things.

"Where do you plan to go first?"

Vic immediately replied:

"We are going to go to the Royal City first. I heard that it is very prosperous there. And there is a mountain range called Korbo nearby. There are many powerful beasts on it, which can also help us practice."

He said it very easily, but Koushiro ignored him and asked again:

"Are you all ready?"

Vic said honestly:

"It's ready. We are just going to the Royal City. We have no follow-up plans yet. We are going to take a boat there first."

Koushiro smiled half-heartedly: "Isn't it because I can't buy a boat?"

Vic immediately complimented: "I really can't hide anything from you."

Vic thought that what was about to happen was the most common part of the Pirate King's ship-gifting process, but he didn't expect it to be too good.

Koushiro said with a smile:

"What does your expression mean? After taking Guina away, do you still want me to send you a ship? Boy, you are really pushing your limits!

With your three-legged cat's sailing skills, I wouldn't trust you to sail on your own! "

Vic didn't care whether there was a boat or not. The boat was not as important as Guina.

He knew that the situation was settled and Koushiro had already agreed. He stood up and bowed with great gratitude and solemnly promised:

"Don't worry! I will protect my subordinates well."

Hearing this, Koushiro just sighed softly and compromised:

"I'm tired, let's go. I hope you can keep your word."

Vic bowed out of the tea room and saw Kuina's red eyes outside, knowing that she was touched by her father's concern for her.

"Did you hear everything?"

Guina nodded slightly, she was touched by her father's care for her.

Distraught, he explained in a superfluous way.

"Don't make random guesses, Vic. I was moved because you told me so many good things about me."

Vic shrugged noncommittally.

"I took it seriously. But those words were all lies. I only wanted to take you away because you cook delicious food."

Guina burst into laughter and said angrily:

"You bastards just know how to entertain me. Don't expect me to cook in the future. I am a combatant, a combatant!"

Vic ignored her shouting, waved his hand and said:

"Don't stress. You should think about how to say goodbye to Mr. Koushiro later. He is very worried about you."

A few people left talking and laughing.

Only Kuina was left lingering at the door, feeling a little embarrassed and not knowing how to face her father.

You can still hear their noisy chatting and laughter.

"Vic, Guina is really as good as you say. It's too exaggerated. I'm at least ten times better than her! Why don't you praise me!"

This was Fury's unconvinced cry.

"You are indeed ten times better at navigation. You are very good. Come on."

Vic was helpless.

"What do you mean by that?! What tone?! Am I so bad at other things?!"

Fury was even more furious.

"Vic has made it so obvious, so don't ask him to be embarrassed again. Telling the truth will hurt your feelings."

Ah Jin relentlessly hit the target.

"Huh?! You're just a walk-on, what did you say? Do you dare to say it again! Let's see if I don't beat you into a pig's head!"

He also gestured demonstratively.

"Damn it! You curly-haired bastard, who are you calling a walk-on? I am the officially titled 'Ghost Man' Ah Jin!"

Akinhuo Dadi retorted.

"I'm just a walk-on. I can't recognize you when I stand on the street. I think I'm afraid of you because I call myself a 'ghost man'! Come here!"

Fury couldn't help but provoke.

"Calm down, stop arguing..." Barritt said weakly.

"You are the one who calls yourself the 'curly bastard'. 'Ghost Man' is a powerful title given to me by Boss Vic! I will make everyone who hears it tremble in the future. Right, Boss Vic!"

His eyes were fixed on Fury.

"What?! Vic, how could you do this? You are partial."

Vic: "..."

"You two, disappear immediately!"

-----------------------

Early the next morning.

Vic and others took the boat and prepared to set sail.

Vic saw Guina's eyes searching near the dock, looking a little sad, and comforted her:

"Didn't you and Mr. Koshiro talk enough last night? He doesn't want to experience the pain of separation again."

Guina refused to admit it.

"I'm not looking for anyone. I'm just looking at the scenery."

As she said this, she turned around and walked into the cabin.

Fury made a fuss and shouted:

"Look, it's Mr. Koushiro!"

Kuina immediately turned around to look. The dock was empty, and there was no Koushiro anywhere.

She realized that Fury was playing a trick on her, glared at him fiercely, and gritted her teeth.

"I'm going to kill you one day!"

Fury didn't take it at all and laughed.

"If you want Mr. Koushiro to deliver it, just say so. You didn't tell him the departure time, right?"

Kuina blushed and really forgot to tell her father the specific time.

At this time Barritt said:

"Mr. Koushiro is here."

Guina said angrily:

"It's enough to make a joke once."

Ah Jin said calmly:

"If you don't believe it, just take a look and you'll know."

Kuina looked down at the pier suspiciously. As expected, there was a man standing there, wearing a plain gray kimono with a smile on his face. Who could it be if he wasn't Koushiro?

Kuina has never left the dojo in ten years, and has never spent a night outside the dojo.

When I thought about my upcoming voyage and leaving my father who I had depended on since childhood, I felt very sad for a while.

The excitement of going on a long journey had faded a lot, and her eyes filled with tears. Kuina restrained herself from crying.

At this time, Koushiro no longer used his usual harsh attitude towards Kuina, but looked at her tenderly and worriedly, with a hint of sadness in his eyes.

Fury felt a little sad looking at the scene of the two people gazing affectionately, and muttered:

"Why are you so excited? It's not a separation of life and death. It's just a matter of hanging out for a while, and I'll be back soon."

Kuina immediately shot him a dagger, punched him on the head, and scolded:

"Shut up."

The sentimental atmosphere was somewhat diluted by this episode.

Kuina solemnly assured Koushiro:

"Father, I will not relax my practice of swordsmanship even outside. When you see me again, I will definitely become more powerful."

Koushiro didn't mention anything about kendo at this time, but looked at Kuina's stubborn face and sighed:

"Guina, you have grown up."

Then he turned to Vic and said solemnly:

"It's up to you, Kuina."

Vic immediately assured:

"Don't worry, I will do my best to protect my partners."

The ship owner was already urging them, and the few people quickly gathered their spirits and set sail.

The ship had weighed anchor, and Koushiro suddenly said:

"Kuina, don't get sick."

Guina burst into tears instantly.

But she did not look back. Instead, she turned her back to Koushiro, pulled out Wado Yimon and raised it above her head, solemnly performing a swordsman's salute.

This is where the journey to the East China Sea begins.
