"Captain?"

Link was also slightly surprised.

Once again, he directly jumped through a large hierarchy, directly promoted from staff sergeant to captain. At this point, he can already be called a middle-level officer in the navy.

"Yeah, you feel a little strange too, right?"

Major Patton also smacked his lips, and the thick beard on his face was trembling, "Although this is indeed a great achievement, it will not be directly promoted to captain, and it is so fast, I will decide to promote you immediately. "

Captain, he is only one step away from his major.

He has been working in the navy for 20 years, and Link, three days!

It's hard not to be frustrated.

"And why do we need to send Bucky the Clown to Lieutenant General Garp immediately?"

The major asked in confusion, "Is that guy that important?"

According to the general procedure, it should be sent to the nearest navy branch for trial.

Link frowned.

Oh, and speaking of Bucky, that all makes sense.

That was Lord Bucky, a member of Roger's ship back then.

It's strange that the Navy doesn't take him seriously.

In this case, being promoted to captain is not something that is incomprehensible. If Bucky's identity was not exposed, Link even felt that his merits were enough to be directly promoted to colonel.

So of course, this guy has to be handed over to Lieutenant General Garp immediately.

"Anyway, congratulations, brother Link!"

A bright smile appeared on the major's face again, and he patted Link's shoulder excitedly with his big hand, "Captain, he is already equivalent to the colonel of the branch, on par with that guy Morgan!"

"If nothing else, the salary is only one level lower than mine. I remember the monthly salary is 40, right?"

"is it?"

Link was a little overjoyed. Sometimes money is not important, but sometimes it is very important. "It's almost one-tenth of my bounty! In this case, after I work for one year, my salary will almost catch up with that amount." Is there a bounty on your head? That’s great!”

The major immediately rolled his eyes, "I know, I know. Then go to Lieutenant General Garp and I will give you your bounty right away!"

You said the same thing last time!

However, Link did not refute. He rolled his eyes and said, "So Major, if you go to Lieutenant General Garp next, will you have to give up the battle against the Straw Hat Kid?"

This is a good thing.

Let's let Luffy run the plot properly.

"Yes, I cannot disobey this subordinate's death order."

The Major frowned and sighed.

Well, good Bucky!

Another assist in an unexpected place!

Link smiled inwardly.

"But we can't just give up on Straw Hat Boy!"

However, the Major's tenacity far exceeded Link's expectations. He looked at Link and said, "Brother Link, I can only ask you!"

"what?"

Link was stunned for a moment, what do you mean by asking for help?

"You are already a captain of our headquarters. At this level, you are already qualified to lead a ship alone!"

The major said solemnly, "I have to send Bucky back, and you will replace me to search for traces of the Straw Hat Kid with the old guys!"

"As much as I hate to admit it, my old friends are about the same strength as me. It's hard to defeat Straw Hat and Roronoa. I can only rely on you, Brother Link!"

Eh--

Link tried not to show a disgusted face.

Really persistent.

"But Major, we only have one ship."

Link reminded.

"It's ok,"

Major Patton waved his hand proudly, "My old guys have recruited a few ships from the surrounding branches, and they are just in use now. I will ask them to send one over right away!"

Then he said earnestly, "Brother Link, you will have to lead the team alone sooner or later. Let's treat this time as an early internship."

You are really well prepared!

Link was speechless.

"understood."

He can only say.

Forget it, let’s fish.

Touching somewhere is not touching.

"Okay, they'll be here soon."

Major Patton became a little excited, "After that, let's split up!"

"Ah."

Link nodded.

It’s like being a captain, and it doesn’t feel bad.

So, with the captured Bucky Pirates and a group of others, Link followed Major Barton and prepared to return to the warship.

However, when he was about to leave the town, there was suddenly a chaotic sound of footsteps on the street ahead, and then a dark crowd crowded over.

"lay down your weapon!"

Major Patton shouted, "Not the enemy."

Of course not the enemy.

There were men and women, old and young, almost all of them had their families with them and carried large and small bags of luggage.

Link saw the head of the mayor who had been missing since just now, and the long-faced dog was still on his head.

"thank you very much!"

The old man came up and bowed deeply to the navy, "Thank you, navy soldiers, for protecting our homeland!"

"thank you very much!"

As if rehearsed, the other residents bent down to express their thanks at the same time, ranging from children who had just learned to walk to gray-haired octogenarians.

"Go and accept the thanks, Brother Link."

Barton chuckled and nudged Link with his elbow, "You were the one who defeated the Bucky Pirates."

Link was silent for a moment.

Somewhat helpless, I walked forward.

This is the first time this has happened, and I feel so embarrassed.

"No need to thank you. It is our navy's responsibility to fight against pirates."

Not knowing what to say, Link could only come up with some clichés.

"For you, it is a responsibility, but for us, it is hope in a desperate situation!"

The mayor raised his head, his eyes already wet, "Thank you very much, Navy boy, you saved us!"

"We have nothing to repay you. We have prepared some souvenirs. Please accept them. Everyone, this is the navy guy I am talking about who defeated the Bucky Pirates!"

The residents behind him immediately rushed up enthusiastically, holding various things in their hands, food, clothes, accessories...

Link was immediately surrounded by a group of people, and all kinds of things were thrown at his face.

"Don't, don't!"

I won't be able to breathe!

"Thank you very much, Navy boy."

Link even felt like someone was kissing him secretly!

The voice sounds very crisp and young.

hateful!At least let me see your face clearly!

"Hahahaha!"

Seeing the helpless Link, Major Barton laughed loudly, "How about it, brother Link, this is what it feels like to be respected."

"It's better to get me out first, Major!"

Link is paralyzed.

It's too enthusiastic and I can't stand it.

The major smiled and walked to the mayor's side. He said calmly, "There is no need for these things. Compared with us, of course you who are full of waste at this time need these more."

"We have taken away all the members of the Bucky Pirates, and we have not touched their belongings. You can take back the property that belongs to you."

"But……"

The mayor was still unwilling.

"Justice cannot protect everyone on the sea. We are already very guilty. To be honest, we did not expect this action in advance. At most, it can be regarded as compensation."

The major sighed softly, "Please, continue to survive tenaciously."

The mayor was silent.

Link was still stuck in the crowd.

"Thank you, navy boy!"

"You are our savior!"

There were voices of thanks from all directions, and Link felt a little dizzy for a moment.

"Brother Navy, thank you!"

Link lowered his head, and two seven or eight-year-old children hugged his legs, a little boy and a little girl.

The little girl raised her head and said, "How about you marry me when I grow up?"

"not good!"

Link didn't hesitate.

"Brother Navy! I want to be a navy like you when I grow up!"

The little boy also raised his head, with a look of longing on his face, just like the expression that appeared on Kebi's face at that time.

Link was slightly startled.

This feeling is amazing.
