Chapter 19 Information about Roger’s Pirate Group!
It took a whole day for the warship to pass through the navy's dedicated waterway, cross the red continent, and officially enter the New World.
At night, Garp's warship docked at an unknown port somewhere in the New World.
The evening breeze blows and the stars twinkle in the sky.
Tsugumi Yuichi lay in his hammock, looking out the cabin window at the night sky. The cabin he was resting in was a single room specially arranged by Garp, but today it was occupied by two people.
On the bed, Aokiji was half covered with a quilt, his mouth slightly open, and he was breathing softly.
But Yoriichi didn't have such good treatment as Aokiji. He slept on a hammock. According to Garp, Yoriichi was a non-staff member and there was no place for him to rest on the ship, so he had to share a room with Aokiji.
Fortunately, Aokiji didn't mind. He even wanted to give his bed to Yunyi, but Yunyi refused. It wasn't because Yunyi was shy, but simply because Yunyi wanted to try the hammock on the boat.
Oh, don’t say that, really don’t say that.
The hammock was quite comfortable.
“The sailing life is quite interesting.”
Thinking this in his heart, Yunyi closed his eyes and fell asleep.
While sleeping, Yunyi had a dream that seemed familiar.
The sea, the sun, the beach, and a small seaside town. The people in this small town are simple and kind, living a simple and self-sufficient life. They may not be rich, but they live in peace and tranquility.
And Yunyi also became a member of the town, living in peace and tranquility.
The next day.
Before Yunyi could get up, the sound of the anchor being raised filled the cabin. He opened his eyes and the faint light of dawn filtered through the window, illuminating the dim cabin a little.
Turning his head to look at the boat, Yunyi found that Aokiji was no longer in the cabin. He looked at the neatly stacked quilts, stood up, jumped off the hammock, and walked towards the door.
After a simple wash, Yunyi came to the ship's restaurant. As soon as he walked in, he heard Aokiji's voice calling him:
"Hey! Yunyi, over here!"
Aokiji, who is only in his early twenties, still has the enthusiasm of a young man. At this moment, he is waving at Yunyi.
After getting some bread and milk, Yunyi walked over to Aokiji with a tray and sat down. Aokiji looked at Yunyi's face and asked with a smile:
"How did you sleep?"
"Are you still used to it?"
"Are you seasick?"
Aokiji was quite concerned about this new little brother and asked him about his well-being.
"Not bad, I'm used to it."
"I don't have seasickness problems. It's not easy to get seasick on such a big ship."
Yunyi said with a smile, and stuffed a piece of bread into his mouth. After taking a sip of milk, Yunyi looked at the restaurant that was bustling with people and asked:
"Kuzan, I heard that we are going out to sea this time to hunt down the Roger Pirates?"
"What are the origins of these people? What have they done to warrant their arrest?"
When Aokiji heard about the Roger Pirates, he immediately became interested in chatting. After sorting out his thoughts, he said:
"Roger's Pirates! They've done so many things."
"In the East China Sea, they attacked two naval branches, and Captain Roger even killed the captain of one branch."
"After that, while evading the navy, he traveled through more than a dozen countries, plundering and killing many nobles."
"They became the pirate group with the highest bounty in the East China Sea. After that, the Roger Pirates ventured into the New World, defeated many of their contemporaries, repeatedly escaped the pursuit of the navy, and became famous pirates."
"A few years ago, the Roger Pirates returned to the East China Sea. I thought they were planning to retire, but..."
"Since last year, the Roger Pirates have been frequently traveling back and forth between the New World and the Four Seas."
"And just a while ago, for some unknown reason, the Roger Pirates suddenly entered the New World."
"Vice Admiral Garp had been pursuing the Roger Pirates, and now that he has heard news about them, he's following them."
When Ji Guoyuan heard this, he just nodded slightly.
These crimes really sound unforgivable, including attacking the navy, looting the member states of the World Government, and killing the nobles of the member states.
These evil deeds and unexplained movements can indeed attract the attention of the navy.
But...it's not enough.
This little bit of stuff can't support the current "reputation" of Roger's pirate group.
I'm afraid there are some things Aokiji may not know.
"So what about the crew of Roger's pirate group? Who are they and how strong are they?"
Yunichirō continued to ask. Aokiji had been in the navy for quite some time, so he should be relatively clear about the current situation of the Roger Pirates' crew.
"Captain, Gol D. Roger, is a pirate with a bounty of 2.6 billion."
"As for strength, I've fought Vice Admiral Garp several times, and he escaped every time."
“Very impressive.”
"The vice-captain of the Roger Pirates is Silvers Rayleigh, a pirate with a bounty of 1.1 billion."
"There is also a samurai from Wano Country named Kozuki Oden. I heard he came over on Whitebeard's ship."
"There are also the Minks, Inuarashi, and Nekomamushi."
"Oh! By the way, there are two kids on Roger's ship, about your age!"
Having said that, Aokiji suddenly patted Yunyi's shoulder and said excitedly.
"About the same age as me?" Yunyi turned his head and looked at Aokiji, a little confused.
"It seems there's a kid named Shanks, and another one called Buggy?" Aokiji touched his chin and replied uncertainly.
"I see. Vice Admiral Garp brought you along for this reason, right?"
As Aokiji spoke, a look of understanding appeared on his face, and he smiled at Yunyi.
At this moment, Yunyi recalled what Garp said to Zephyr before he took him out to sea. Yunyi vaguely remembered that Garp seemed to have said that there were two people of about his age on Roger's ship.
It turns out to be Shanks and Buggy!
Originally, Yuanyi was just guessing and was not sure. Now that he knew the news, he could probably judge the time point where he was.
Yoshiichi has a vague understanding of the timeline of the One Piece world. After joining the navy, in order to avoid attention, he deliberately did not inquire about the deeds and ages of Garp and others.
Now that he knows Shanks' age, Yunyi knows what big things will happen in the future.
In just a few years, I'm afraid the world will undergo tremendous changes!
Yoriichi and Aokiji were eating breakfast and chatting. Just as they were about to leave for today's "training", Garp's adjutant Bogart blocked their way with a knife in his hand.
"Lieutenant Colonel Bogart, what are your orders?"
"Hello, Commander Bogart."
Aokiji and Yoriichi greeted Bogart one after another.
"Colonel Kuzan, Vice Admiral Garp has assigned me to teach Yoriichi Tsugikuni."
"The Vice Admiral means that Yoriichi no longer needs to continue practicing the Six Styles of the Navy, and he can start practicing Haki."
"From now on, Colonel Kuzan, you will be Vice Admiral Garp's adjutant. I will take over the task of teaching Yoriichi Tsugikuni."
Bogart explained to the two of them. Yunyi's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he felt a little excited. Aokiji nodded and said to Yunyi:
"Then, Yoriichi, I'll go find Vice Admiral Garp first, and you'll follow Lieutenant Colonel Bogart. How impressive! I didn't expect you'd be getting into this so soon."
"It's going to be quite difficult to practice this thing."
Aokiji seemed to have thought of some bad memories and couldn't help shivering. Then he waved to Yunyi and left the restaurant first.
"Yuichi, come with me, let's go to the deck."
