Chapter 68

Kujaku pried Luffy's hand away with all her strength, pouted her lips and said coquettishly:

"Little Luffy, how can you say that to your sister?

Your sister just cares too much about you and doesn't want other messy women to lead you astray.

It's not to see you being hated by girls and having no desire to live."

Everyone:....Hey! You've been exposed! Who would think that kind of thing is wonderful!

Luffy sighed and made a little bear hand-spreading gesture to Ain and Hina.

It's really not that he is a philanderer, but this woman has bad intentions and takes the initiative to stick to him and disgust him.

The two women also expressed their understanding of this. Not only did their hostility towards Kujaku greatly decrease, but they also secretly gave Kujaku a thumbs up in their hearts.

Well done, if you don't drive away all the women around him, who knows if a few sisters will pop up at any time.

After a farce, the misunderstanding was resolved. Luffy had no intention of introducing a few people to Kujaku.

After passing her and entering Zephyr's house, he instructed Zoro to put the wine down, and then shouted:

"Teacher Zephyr, we are here to see you."

"I heard you. Why are you shouting so loudly? I'm not deaf yet."

In the dining room, Zephyr put the last dish on the table and then walked out to greet everyone with satisfaction.

When he saw the two strangers, his expression did not change much. He just glanced at them casually and then focused his attention on a box of wine on the ground.

"I'm glad you still remember it. This wine is rarely sold in our headquarters. It must have taken a lot of effort to find it."

"No, no, it's also to honour you, come, try it and see if it tastes authentic."

Luffy put the wine in the corner of the kitchen, then opened it, took out a bottle and walked to the dining table. At this time, everyone else was still standing there stupidly without moving. Seeing this, Zephyr glanced at Ain and Hina and said unhappily:

""What are you still standing there for? Do you want me to invite you?"

Hearing this, Ain also felt the strangeness after not seeing him for a year.

Seeing the old man's still strong and healthy body, the girl politely stepped forward and called him Teacher Zephyr.

Zephyr also looked at this student who had just graduated a year ago.

Judging from his vision, Ain did not stand still in this year, and her strength has improved a lot.

Thinking that his disciple listened to his teachings carefully, Zephyr couldn't help but feel relieved.

He rarely smiled, and his tone slowed down a bit, and greeted:

"Ain, you have grown up, sit down, let's eat and talk."

At Zephyr's invitation, several people did not refuse, and soon they sat down at the long table in the dining room.

Zephyr naturally sat in the main seat, and on his left was Luffy who had already sat down and was waiting for him to start eating.

Then came Zoro and Sanji.

On Zephyr's right, the first to come was Kujaku, followed by Ain and Hina.

Zephyr poured himself a full glass of sherry wine with an ordinary glass. He didn't have so many rules, and raised his glass directly and said:

"Let's eat, just treat it like your home, don't be restrained."

Luffy immediately picked up the chopsticks, picked up the food, and said with a smile:

"This is my home, I have been here so many times."

"Haha, you little brat."

Although he called him a little brat, the smile on Zephyr's face became more and more intense.

For him, whose family had long gone, he was very happy to have a student like Luffy who seemed to be very kind to him but actually treated him like a family.

After he started eating, others also stopped being reserved and started eating.

Of course, Luffy didn't just eat. After chatting about some daily trivia, he took the time to introduce Zoro and Sanji to Zephyr.

"Teacher, the green-haired guy next to me is Zoro. He is a swordsman I recruited from the East Blue.

Although he is only 15 years old, he has become an excellent swordsman under my guidance."

"Oh, a 15-year-old swordsman, he has pretty good talent.'"

Zephyr nodded and gave his own evaluation.

Of course, he didn't think so in his heart.

In his opinion, Zoro grew up in a small place in the East Blue, but he could become a swordsman after only one year of Luffy's guidance.

This is already a remarkable talent.

If this child can be trained well, he will definitely become another pillar of the marine in the future.

Knowing the teacher's character, Luffy also smiled slightly and didn't say much.

Instead, he continued to introduce Sanji.

"The blond with curly eyebrows is Sanji, and he is also a partner I recruited in the East Blue. He usually works as a cook on the ship, but his kicking skills are also amazing.

In just one year, he mastered the three of the six styles like shave, Moonwalk, and Tempest Kick, and developed new ones, and launched his own exclusive moves."

'Are you from the East Blue again? It turns out that place cannot be underestimated.'

Surprised in his heart, Zephyr focused his eyes on Sanji.

Sanji sat down honestly, and when he saw him looking at him, he respectfully called Teacher Zephyr.

After nodding in response, Zephyr frowned more and more as he looked at Sanji.

'This curly eyebrow, why do I seem to have seen him somewhere before?...'

Although he was puzzled, Zephyr did not say it out loud.

Instead, he also gave his own evaluation.

"You are also very talented to be able to master three types of the Six Styles and develop your own moves within a year."

After a pause, Zephyr glanced at Luffy who was looking at him expectantly, and guessed the little idea of this kid.

'You little rascal, you said you came to see me, but you actually wanted me to train his subordinates.

But this kid dared to think so, even Sengoku is not qualified to randomly give me people.

He has more face than the Fleet Admiral!'

But even if he guessed Luffy's little trick, facing two such talented seedlings, Zephyr's teacher addiction came back.

So after thinking about it, Zephyr finally agreed.

"If you two don't mind, you can come to the elite training camp to find me when you are free.

After I test your strength, I can help you develop a more reasonable and effective training plan."

Zoro and Sanji were delighted to hear Zephyr's promise.

It was very important for them to have the guidance of Zephyr, a former admiral who had taught three admiral.

Without hesitation, the two immediately agreed and thanked him:

"Thank you very much, Teacher Zephyr"*2

they changed their words really quickly. Could it be that Luffy taught them that?

Zephyr glanced at Luffy, and Luffy happened to look at him and gave him a thumbs up.

Annoying brat.

One of the purposes of coming to Zephyr was solved, and Luffy breathed a sigh of relief.

Then everyone started chatting about all sorts of things.

But it was mainly Zephyr asking questions and then others answering them.

Zephyr's eyes swept over several disciples and asked abruptly:

"Hina, how is your armament haki?"

Instantly, Hina's hand froze while picking up the food. She carefully withdrew her hand, lowered her head and said vaguely:

"This, that, teacher, I..."

Seeing her hesitating and unable to answer, Zephyr knew that she must have been slacking off.

He immediately frowned and lectured her:

"Do you think you can be proud of being a mere Captain in the headquarters?!

What I usually teach you is that Haki and physical skill are the foundation. Do you think you are invincible with a devil fruit?

The strong men standing at the top of this sea, have you ever heard of anyone who reached that position relying solely on a devil fruit?

What's more, your devil fruit is not that good."

What can Hina do in the face of the teacher's reprimand?

She could only nod like a chicken pecking at rice, and swear to work hard with Luffy in the future and never waste her talent.

Luffy watched with a smile on his face. Hina's rare appearance of a good student, he must remember it and make fun of her when he returns.

But before Luffy could be happy for long, the firepower shifted to his head

"What are you laughing at? Do you think I won't say anything to you just because you have improved your strength?

Look at what you had done. First, he killed the rat.

Then, without the order from the headquarters, executed a Captain base commander in public.

Although they deserved to be killed, it doesn't mean you can do whatever you want without following the rules of the marine!

Did you learn all your ideological education and political courses in vain?"

"Yes, yes, teacher, I know I was wrong."

"Wrong? I think you didn't listen at all!

If it weren't for Ain being your adjutant and advising you,

I can't imagine how much more trouble you would have done!"

Ain, the only one who was not criticized and was praised in disguise, lowered her head guiltily when she heard this.

She did a great job. Not only did she not keep an eye on her superior, but she also helped her superior to do things for the Revolutionary Army.

She is probably the most unqualified here.

Although they were scolded by Zephyr for a long time, the three of them were not sad.

Instead, they felt very warm.

Like Hina, she graduated from Zephyr for many years.

Zephyr can still call out her fruit ability at one go, which happens to be the best proof that he cares about his students.

In this way, with pain and happiness, the group accompanied the lonely old man Zephyr for lunch.

After the meal, Ain and Hina rushed to help clean up the dishes.

Zephyr did not stop him and brought the rest of the people to the living room.

On the sofa, Kujaku, who had rarely spoken, finally found an opportunity and sat next to Luffy, next to him, and said coquettishly:

"Little Luffy, what is your relationship with those two women?

Isn't it enough to have me? Why do you have to look for one outside?"

Luffy stretched out a finger expressionlessly, pressed against her forehead and pushed her away from him.

Then he moved his butt a little further away from her, and then spoke:

"First of all, our relationship is none of your business.

Secondly, don't act like you have a good relationship with me and stick to me.

Finally, please call me Commodore Luffy."

Everyone:Σ(Д)

"Captain, you have been promoted to Commodore?!"

Zoro shouted in surprise.

Luffy raised his head and nodded proudly:

"That's right, although the official appointment has not yet been made, this is what the Fleet Admiral said himself."

Everyone, including Zephyr, was surprised to hear him say this.

Sanji quickly stood up, pointed at himself excitedly and asked:

"What about me? Did the Fleet Admiral tell me about giving me a promotion?

An excellent marine man like me who is both capable and handsome should be promoted a few levels, and by the way, I should be used as a positive example for the marine and publicized all over the world."

""Tsk~", Luffy saw through Sanji's little thoughts at a glance

"Then, when you become famous, you can take the opportunity to hook up with beautiful big sisters, right ?

You are dreaming! With your performance in the previous mission, at most you can get a small red flower.

You still want to publicize it to the whole army, why don't you just say you will be an admiral?

By then, there will be no need for publicity, and beautiful women will come to you."

Luffy thought that his scolding would wake Sanji up and make him forget those messy fantasies.

But Sanji suddenly realized and clapped his hands, and said excitedly:

"Yeah, why didn't I think of that. I've decided that my future goal is to become an admiral!"

Poof!

Hearing this, Zephyr was so angry that he almost spit out the tea in his mouth.

Listen to what this curly-haired kid said!

What do you think an admiral is? Is it your buff for picking up girls?

what kind of admiral leads what kind of soldiers! If the superior is a bastard, and the subordinates are not good either.

"Huh~ This little brother is really interesting."

Kujaku covered her mouth and chuckled.

When she spoke, Sanji was frightened. 

It's true that he likes beautiful women, but he is not a perverted masochist.

But Kujaku's next sentence made Sanji so happy that he almost knelt down on the spot for her.

"If you want to find a girlfriend, I can help you.

My grandmother has a troop composed of all female soldiers. I believe there must be a girl you like there."

"Master Kujaku, please tell me how to join that army!"

Looking at Sanji bowing and asking Kujaku, Luffy kicked him out in anger.

"Idiot, I am your superior. If you want to change jobs, you have to see if I agree or not!"

Sanji was kicked behind the sofa and hit against the wall, but he was not affected at all. He quickly turned over and got up, looking eagerly at Master Kujaku who was playing with her hair with a playful look on her face.

Kujaku leaned on the sofa, supporting her chin with one hand and curling her golden hair with the other hand, and leisurely lifted her long white legs.

Like a big bad wolf coaxing a little white rabbit, she said seductively:

"It's impossible to join, but I can introduce you.

Do you like a slender, mature and gentle type?"

Sanji showed a pig-like face, red hearts in his eyes and nodded frantically.

"I like them all!"

"Do you like young, beautiful, lively or cute naive newcomers?"

"I like them all too!"

"Hehe, as long as you promise me to let your captain go on a date with me, I can meet all these conditions.~"

"good....Ah?"

Sanji was about to agree, but suddenly he remembered the three tigresses around Luffy.

He shuddered and shook his head repeatedly to refuse.

"No, no, I can't do this, please change it~"
