One Piece

If he were to graduate now, with Qin Ge's accumulated military merits, he could at least be promoted to Lieutenant Colonel in the headquarters.

Building a warship required a Colonel Military Academy. Qin Ge did not think he could accumulate enough military merits to be promoted to Colonel in the next three years. The travel he made for himself was mainly to hunt powerful pirates.

"Then we have a deal. You must come back often; otherwise, don't consider me paying attention to you in the future!" Although Robin was reluctant, she was mature and did not want to cause trouble for Qin Ge, so she threatened him.

Qin Ge naturally smiled and nodded. He then brought the other party to enjoy the last day of relaxation before they left.

...

The next day, on a merchant ship leaving Maraudon, he waved goodbye to another Robin at the dock - Qin Ge casually leaned against the deck railing, enjoying the refreshing feeling of the sea breeze blowing on his body.

"Then where should we go to the next stop?" Qin Ge rested his left hand on the knife's hilt on his waist, unconsciously stroking the comfortable feeling brought by the string on it. He was thinking about his next journey in his heart.

Whether it was obtaining soul energy or looking for experts to fight, the best place was naturally the new world. There were true experts like clouds and pirates with a bounty of more than a hundred million everywhere.

However, the new world was also filled with danger. The new world was like a giant meat grinder when the excellent sea era erupted in the past few years. There were less than a hundred people who entered and survived.

In addition to those who died from powerful enemies, most of them were annihilated by unpredictable and terrifying weather. One Piece's most outstanding characteristic was the robust power system of one person to destroy the army and the strange weather in the middle of the Grand Line.

The storm was just the appetizer, and the superstorm that would suddenly appear at that time was the most terrible thing. It was awful weather that could swallow an island.

Just like how the power level of this world was advancing, the four seas were weaker than the first half of the Grand Line, the Grand Line was more vulnerable than the new world, and the weather was the same.

The weather changes in the Grand Line were already strange enough, but the new world was even more terrifying. Even the elite pirates who had adapted to the first half of the Grand Line could die from the terrible weather changes as soon as they entered the new world.

Although Qin Ge had been in this world for a few years, this was the first time he had indeed gone to sea alone. Even though he had learned a good navigation technique from the military academy, he would probably die if he were to enter the new world in an instant.

It's better to grow a bit more wretched first. It will be okay to head towards the new world after adapting to the first half of the Grand Line! Qin Ge muttered to himself and quickly made a decision.

The first half of the Grand Line also had no lack of experts and experts. Moreover, from time to time, there would be experts from the new world come to the first half of the Grand Line. It was easy to find a target to hunt.

After the merchant ship arrived, Qin Ge got off the boat and went to the town's dock on the island. He spent nearly 50 million Bailey to buy a reasonably well-equipped ship, which was used as the following traveling tool on the sea.

In addition, while purchasing supplies, Qin Ge also bought a lot of permanent pointers and some sea maps to prepare. Traveling in the Grand Line was useless for a compass, so it had to be equipped with a special tip.

Qin Ge was temporarily not allowed to go to the new world, so he naturally did not need to record the pointer. He only needed to buy a permanent tip that accurately pointed to certain famous islands.

"Have you heard? Now that pirates have occupied the island, there is a foul atmosphere. Pirates are everywhere. The people living there have fled to other islands nearby!"

"I have heard about this. It seems that a group of terrible pirates is preparing to hold an alliance meeting on the island of Catalona, attracting many pirates to rush over!"

"Alas, I am still determining when such a day will come. The sea is too dangerous now. If I am not careful, I will be attacked by pirates. I really can't live!"

"...!"

After the purchase, Qin Ge, who had just arrived at the port and was about to board the ship to leave, suddenly stopped and looked thoughtfully at the sailors who had gathered nearby, sighing and chatting.

"A large number of pirates gathering? It sounds like a good place!" The corners of Qin Ge's mouth curled up as he walked directly toward the sailors.

"Excuse me. I just heard you say that a lot of pirates have gathered together. Can you tell me the specific location? Oh, right, this is your reward for answering!" Qin Ge took out a 10,000-Mile note and said to the sailors with a smile.

The sailors were stunned, but their eyes immediately lit up when they saw the note in Qin Ge's hand. The charm of money was invincible.

The following situation was self-evident. Under the guidance of money, Qin Ge quickly learned the specific problem under the detailed explanation of the sailors.

The sharp pirates were a group of pirates that roamed the first half of the Grand Line. Moreover, their captain Mandel's bounty was even more than 200 million. He was a member of the new supernova in the first half of the Grand Line.

Perhaps because he knew the danger of the new world, although Mandel could be said to be the first half of the Grand Line, he was smart enough not to enter the new world immediately. Instead, he was ready to build a pirate alliance to expand his power and welcome the baptism of the new world.

Mandel's plan was very smooth with the pointed pirates and his fame. After invading a town, the news spread, and many pirates came to the new world. A giant pirate alliance was about to be born.

"It's getting more and more interesting—the pirate alliance. I don't know how strong it is. I hope it won't be too boring!" Qin Ge, who was sailing on the sea, thought excitedly.

After getting the general information, Qin Ge naturally chose to sail out to sea immediately, driving the boat at full speed to Katarina Island, which the pointed pirates invaded.

Killing many pirates represented not only a lot of military merits but also a group of moving soul energy for Qin Ge. He naturally would not miss it.

The first time he officially went out to sea, he faced a group of well-known pirates, and there were many pirates. Qin Ge was not afraid but was full of expectations for the upcoming battle.

Traveling at sea was boring, especially when there was only one person, but fortunately, Katrana Island was not far from the island where Qin Ge had initially landed.
