Chapter 21 Aftermath

Colonel to Captain

=

Captain Mouse and the moth-eaten navy he had brought with him from Branch 16 didn't escape, and all died in the square.

The next problem to consider was the aftermath.

After some treatment, more than ten villagers died in the first volley of naval fire.

Nami was determined to impose this responsibility on herself, but if she had chosen to resist, would the villagers not have died?

Although there are no regrets to be bought in this world, she didn't want to make herself regret it again.

Will lit a cigarette and came to Nami's side, who had lost her smile.

The cigarette is a trophy found on the body of Captain Mouse, as a former rich second generation, smoking, drinking and playing with girls, in addition to the three kinds of pornography, gambling and drug addiction, they can be considered as 'all five drugs'.

"Did you regret it?"

Nami nodded, "I regret why I didn't kill them in the first place!"

The cigarette in Will's hand flickered on and off, and he suddenly said: "Actually, things haven't reached the worst point."

"The navy is not full of dregs like Captain Mouse, and as far as I know, the new officer dispatched in Loguetown is a real justice guy.

"As long as you put the blame on me afterwards, you should be fine."

Nami looked at him unexpectedly, "Are you serious? Aren't you a pirate hunter?"

"It's just a temporary cameo, and even if you don't put the blame on me, is the Navy going to ignore this?"

"Someone has to take the blame, being a free and easy-going pirate seems to be good, usually doing nothing but following the blow of the sea breeze around to enjoy the scenery is also fun, and when you see injustice, just go up and take charge of it, it's really a life to aspire to ~."

Will threw away the cigarette butt and crushed it with his foot, saying with an exaggerated look.

Seeing him like this, Nami finally couldn't help but laugh a little.

"Then... Thank you~"

Will and Nami looked at each other and smiled.

...

"Lord..." The captain and the first mate looked at Will, who couldn't stop talking.

They had seen the whole thing from the beginning to the end, and they knew very well what had caused things to turn into what they were now.

The East Blue Sea is known as the 'weakest' among the four seas, and no one has dared to provoke the navy's authority for many years.

No matter what the truth is, it is impossible for the Navy not to take countermeasures.

It is believed that soon a bounty will be issued on Will, and then the navy and pirate hunters will be waiting for him to intercept him!

Before parting, Will called the captain and the others over.

"Don't worry about me, have you all remembered what to say when you get back?"

"Remember, be sure to go to Loguetown and find a Captain Marine named Smoker."

"When you see him, give him this evidence, and tell him that I killed Arlong Pirates and Captain Mouse and that these men had nothing to do with anyone else anyway."

"The warship can't be moved until the navy comes to receive it, and the other two heads and the pirate ship, you tell old John to dispose of them for me and give him half of whatever you can sell them for, and I'll go back for them after a while, and I hope old John is a wise man, and that can be conveyed to him."

Will drove them away, so as not to involve innocent people like them in any further mischief.

"Your Lord, how will you leave then? Why don't we give you a ride?"

Will sighed a bit, with only a few days of contact with these lovely crew members and they are willing to take such a big risk to help him, has his handsomeness already reached the point where men and women are all over him?

A very happy Will shook his head directly and erased those dangerous thoughts in his heart.

Arlong pirate ships are actually not big, they are all fish-men and do not use it that much, so the requirements of the ship is not so high.

With only Koby and him, two people are enough to start.

Although there are some discrepancies with the plan, which he finally gave up on abducting the little beauty Nami, Will does not regret it.

Even if he abducts Nami on his ship, if she is unwilling, then there's no point for her on board.

At least Koby, the potential seed of the future, still gave him a little comfort in his heart, since this trip was not in vain!

"We'll be off then, my lord, take care!"

"Go, go, don't blindly blow people when you're drinking from now on, and don't expect me to save you if you're in trouble."

"Got it, Lord Will!"

...

When they came here, there were many people with him, but when they left it was just him and Koby.

"We should go too, Koby."

"Yes, teacher!"

That's right, right after Koby made his choice, Will took the fat little dwarf as his founding disciple!

Even though the current Koby still had all sorts of flaws and no hint of a strong man at all, Will was surprisingly confident in him.

He was also thinking simply, if Koby became useless, then simply feed him to the Sea King!

Koby shuddered coldly, as if something bad was staring him in the face, and was so frightened that he hurriedly followed Will's pace.

Sail away!

Under the grateful and guilty eyes of the villagers, Will and Koby loaded the whole boat full of oranges and left the place.

This hurt Will, not only because the villagers only thanked him with oranges instead of a boatload of treasures, but also because until they finally left, he didn't see Nami appear to see him off.

It made him somewhat sad, was it because the effect of the slippery fruit had failed?

"Teacher, where are we going?" Koby, who was struggling to steer, turned back and asked.

Will thought for a moment, this next period will not be easy, so should he find a quiet place to get away from the storm?

And where can he find devil fruits for his remaining slots?

It's time to put the strengthening of the body with the energy of the Devil Fruit on the schedule.

To sum it up, there is an urgent shortage of Devil Fruit!

Although he doesn't want useless devil fruit, the more the merrier!

Where in the East Blue can he find the Devil's Fruit?

Who the hell knows!

Let's just take it one step at a time.

"You can choose in whichever direction you see fit."

He needed to give old John a little time to dispose of the 'loot' and avoid the Navy coming over from Loguetown, and since he didn't know where he was going himself, he obviously didn't believe the Navy could still find him!

Will gave himself a big compliment for being resourceful!

But Koby who heard it was speechless, and for the first time, he became worried about his own future, why did his cheap teacher feel so unreliable!

While on their own thoughts, at that moment, there was a strange noise coming from the cabin full of oranges.
