One Piece: The Peerless Sword Saint

Chapter 4 Buying a boat and going to sea

Looking at a group of minions rushing up, Lan Yuxuan smiled fearlessly. He spread his hands, moved the blade forward, and exposed his chest to the gaze of the minions. Seeing this, the pirates showed their bloodthirsty expressions. However, their smiles froze in the next second. They only saw a blue figure flashing in front of their eyes, and then they felt as if their legs were filled with lead and they could not lift them up at all.

The screen seemed to be still at this moment. All the pirates were in place. Lan Yuxuan, who came in front of the pirates, now appeared behind the pirates like a ghost.

"Dragon Spin Twenty-Four Slashes" Lan Yuxuan muttered behind the pirates. The pirates who had just finished speaking behind him arrived one after another. That's right, what Lan Yuxuan used just now was the Dragon Spin Slash, the first move of Yulong Sword Technique. This move also had the accompanying movement skills, and it was solved in an instant. There were more than twenty pirates.

Everyone on the side almost dropped their jaws when they saw such a scene, and even Betty opened her mouth wide. They had never seen a powerful man of Lan Yuxuan's level, so it was normal to have such a reaction.

Then the situation on the field was reversed in an instant, and only Bacchus was left on the pirate side.

"Asshole, I'll fight you." Seeing that all his men were killed in an instant, Bacchus shouted and rushed towards Lan Yuxuan.

Looking at the angry Bacchus, Lan Yuxuan looked away. He couldn't beat him before, and now that he has lost his mind, it is even more impossible to beat him.

"Dragon Whirl Slash Eighteen Slashes" Faced with such an irrational person, Lan Yuxuan had no intention of fighting him, so he just dodged and finished it with one move.

"Boom" I saw Bacchus leaning back and falling to the ground after being hit by Lan Yuxuan's move.

Not long after Lan Yuxuan defeated the Bacchus Pirates, the navy rushed over and was very surprised to see that the pirates had been defeated. Later, for professional reasons, several navy officers questioned Lan Yuxuan. , after learning that he was the island's tavern manager, he let him go, and handed him Bacchus's 500 million bounty.

After being released by the navy, Lan Yuxuan and Betty who were standing by the side walked towards Barlow who was being questioned by the navy.

"Yu Xuan, I didn't expect you to be so powerful." Betty, who was walking side by side with Lan Yuxuan towards Barlow, suddenly whispered in his ear.

"Hehe, it's not that powerful. In fact, my sister can defeat that Bacchus. After all, you are also a top-notch swordsman." After hearing Betty's words, Lan Yuxuan embarrassedly stretched out his hand to rub his dark blue hair and smiled stupidly. road. Although he said so, Lan Yuxuan knew in his heart that Betty might not be able to defeat Bacchus. After all, experience is very important in battle. As for why Lan Yuxuan could easily defeat Bacchus, it was because of the strength of the two. Too much difference.

"Of course, I'm very powerful." After hearing this, Betty immediately puffed up her chest and said with a proud face.

Lan Yuxuan had already adapted to his sister's arrogant nature, but when he saw Betty's trembling breasts, he couldn't help but blush. For his sister, who is the most beautiful woman in Dog Town, , Lan Yuxuan's immunity is still so low.

Fortunately, the two of them had already arrived at Barlow's side at this time, and Lan Yuxuan didn't have to face his sister in embarrassment.

"Yu Xuan, I really want to thank you this time. If it weren't for you my shipyard would be dead." The sharp-eyed Barlow saw Lan Yuxuan just walking over and quickly came over to hold his hand and thank him.

"Uncle Barlow, you don't have to thank me. I'll just buy the boat cheaper later." Faced with Barlow's thanks, Lan Yuxuan said with a smile.

"Yes, Uncle Barlow, when my Yuxuan buys a boat later, you have to make it cheaper." Betty on the side heard what Lan Yuxuan said and quickly interjected.

"Haha Yuxuan, you saved my shipyard. Even if I'm angry, I can't ask for your money. If you want to buy a boat, I'll give you one." Barlow laughed after hearing what Lan Yuxuan and Betty said.

"Really? Thank you so much."

"Really? Thanks Uncle Barlow."

Lan Yuxuan and Betty were surprised when they heard this.

"If you want to thank me, I'll thank you too. You saved the shipyard and I gave you the ship. After all, I made a profit." Barlow said with a smile.

"By the way, are you two siblings buying a boat to go to sea?" Barlow asked Lan Yuxuan curiously.

"Well, my sister and I have sold the tavern and are preparing to go to sea together." Regarding Barlow's question, Lan Yuxuan explained.

"Really, being young is good. Uncle, I'm here to wish you a smooth sailing in advance." Barlow said with some sigh after hearing Lan Yuxuan's words.

"Then thank Uncle Barlow for your words." Lan Yuxuan said.

"Don't you want to go to sea? I have a very good caravel sailboat in my shipyard, so I will give it to you." Barlow said to Lan Yuxuan and his sister with a smile.

"Thank you, Uncle Barlow. Can you tell us about the situation of the ship?" Although Lan Yuxuan was very excited, he wanted to know the specific situation of the ship.

"Then I'll go with you. I'm not lying to you. This ship can be the best ship in my shipyard." When Barlow heard that Lan Yuxuan wanted to know the specific situation of the ship, he immediately turned into profiteer mode, with a full face. Said with a smile.

After hearing Barlow's words, Lan Yuxuan and Betty had cold sweat on their foreheads, and Lan Yuxuan couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.

"Uncle Barlow, we don't have to be like this," Betty wiped the cold sweat from her head and said to Barlow.

"Ahem, professional habits, professional habits. How about we go to the living room and chat slowly," Barlow said sheepishly while coughing.

So the three of them came to the living room and sat down, and Barlow began to tell about the situation of the ship.

"Well, actually I didn't lie to you. This ship is indeed the best ship currently in this shipyard. It is 20 meters long and 6 meters wide. The production of the Caravel sailboat is more cumbersome, and the material of this ship is also Yes, the keel is made of slope wood, the frame, ribs and ribs are all made of lychee wood, the deck is made of teak, the mast is made of fir, and some other parts are also made of red silk wood and cypress. Made of medium and high-grade woods such as elm. These woods alone cost me 3 million beli." Barlow fluently revealed the material of the ship.

Picking up someone on the table next to him to moisten his throat, Barlow continued: "This ship uses two masts, and the horizontal sail and the jib are used together. Only two people can control the sail. There are six rooms, and there are six rooms under the front deck. The gun deck and anchor storage room. Below the deck is the men's bedroom. The back of the ship is divided into three floors. The bottom floor is the women's bedroom. The second floor is the warehouse and helm. There is also a bathroom, and the third floor is the kitchen and dining room. , it can also be used as a conference room at ordinary times.”

After hearing what Barlow said, Betty was very happy. Such a boat was already very good, and Barlow would also give it to them. But Lan Yuxuan had a troubled expression on his face.

"Why does this boat look so similar to Straw Hat's Meili? Could it be that Meili is also a Caravel," the troubled Lan Yuxuan thought in his mind.

"Are you really going to give us such a good boat?" Betty still didn't believe that Uncle Barlow, who was always known for being stingy, would give such a good boat to them.

"Even if I am usually very stingy, would I lie to you kids?" Barlow said angrily after hearing Betty's words.

"Even if you want to give it to me, I can't let you suffer. Here is 3 million beli, even if it is the money you spent to buy the materials. Don't refuse." Lan Yuxuan took out a handful of banknotes from his arms. Forced into Barlow's hands.

"Okay. Then I'll accept it shamelessly." Looking at Lan Yuxuan's expression, Barlow knew that he really wanted to give him the money, so he accepted the money according to Lan Yuxuan's words.

"Uncle Barlow, can you take me and my sister to see the ship?" Lan Yuxuan said to him when Barlow accepted the money.

"Of course, you are its owners now. Come with me, it is with Dock No. 1." After that, Barlow got up and took Lan Yuxuan and Betty to Dock No. 1.

The group came to the No. 1 dock, and Lan Yuxuan also saw his own Caravel sailboat. It was really similar to the Straw Hat Meili, except that the bow was not that cute sheep head, but an ordinary horn.

"Wow, what a handsome boat," Betty, who had been beside Lan Yuxuan, shouted when she saw the boat.

"Don't be so surprised, okay? This boat is so handsome." Lan Yuxuan complained helplessly from the side.

"Humph, I am handsome." Betty's arrogant attributes have exploded.

"Uh, Uncle Barlow, let's launch the boat into the water and hold a launching ceremony." Lan Yuxuan was too lazy to reason with his arrogant sister, so he turned around and said to Barlow.

"Are you in such a hurry? Are you going to go to sea tomorrow?" Barlow said in surprise when he heard that Lan Yuxuan was going to hold a launching ceremony now.

"Well, my sister and I have bought all the items needed for sailing in the past few days, and we just need a boat." Lan Yuxuan replied.

"Okay then. I'll ask someone to lower the boat into the water." Barlow said after hearing Lan Yuxuan's explanation.

"I'll throw it, I'll throw it." Betty on the side shouted after hearing this.

The launching ceremony is a habit that has been around for a long time. Navigation is a very dangerous profession, and shipwrecks involving ships and people often occur. When a ship is in distress, the crew writes the name of the ship in distress, the date of the wreck, the location of the wreck, the names of the crew members in distress, their place of origin and other important matters, then rolls up the paper and stuffs it into an empty bottle, and seals the bottle mouth. Then throw it into the ocean and let it drift, hoping that it will be discovered by a passing ship or it will flow to the coast.

In fact, the hope of those crew members being rescued after being in distress is slim. Once such a bottle is dropped, it means that he will face danger and death at sea. Therefore, the families of the crew members are least willing to see such bottles. This gradually became a habit. Whenever a newly built ship was launched, the ship owner's wife would be the representative and smash a bottle of champagne on the bow of the ship, letting the fragrant wine spread around the bow to ward off evil spirits and avoid disasters. , pray for good luck. The more broken the champagne bottle, the better, which indicates that the ship will always be smooth sailing after it is put into sailing.

Soon, under Barlow's arrangement, Lan Yuxuan's boat was launched and the champagne was ready. Lan Yuxuan was going to let Betty smash the bottle. She wanted to smash the bottle anyway.

"Come on, smash it as much as possible." Lan Yu Xuanba handed the champagne in his hand to Betty beside him and said.

"I know, I don't need you." Betty rolled her eyes at Lan Yuxuan and said.

"Look at me, hey." Betty finished throwing the champagne in her hand towards the bow of the ship.

There was a crisp sound of "pop", and the champagne bottle shattered. The bright red champagne flowed into the sea along the hull, and the mellow aroma of the wine suddenly filled the air.

"Ye Yuxuan, look, look, the bottle is broken, the bottle is broken," Betty saw that the bottle was broken, and happily hugged Lan Yuxuan and shouted.

"I know, I know, please let me go quickly." Although he knew that Betty was very happy, Lan Yuxuan immediately felt the softness of his sister's chest when she hugged her, and his face suddenly turned red again. Quickly asked Betty to let him go.

Betty was obviously aware of this. After hearing Lan Yuxuan's words, she hurriedly released her hand from his waist, her face flushed. Thinking about it, she was too excited just now, and now she feels embarrassed.

"Ahem, you guys chat and I'll go check out other docks." Seeing that the atmosphere between the two was a bit delicate, Barlow found an excuse to leave the No. 1 dock, leaving Lan Yuxuan and Betty alone in the huge dock. , but the two of them didn't say anything. Obviously, what happened just now made them both a little embarrassed.

"Hey, I finally took the first step towards my dream." Lan Yuxuan broke the silence and said happily, looking at the sea outside the dock.

"Nai, Yu Xuan, can you tell me what your dream is?" Betty, who was silent at the side, suddenly said after hearing Lan Yuxuan's dream.

"My dream" Lan Yuxuan paused for a moment, his head lowered slightly, there was a trace of confusion in his eyes, but immediately the confusion in his eyes was replaced by a firmness that seemed invincible.

"He is the strongest." Lan Yuxuan said in a firm tone as he looked at the vast sea outside the dock.

"Hehe, then I am the strongest sister," Betty shouted heartlessly as she ran outside after hearing Lan Yuxuan's words.

Lan Yuxuan, who was very serious, heard Betty's words, put his hand on his forehead and smiled silently, and followed Betty out.

Early the next morning, Lan Yuxuan and Betty went to sea with the blessings of everyone in the town. Add “songshu566” Weixin public account to see more interesting things
