NOVEL NEXT Chapter 34 Childishness
The West Sea, the land of flowers.
In Huyin Mountain, Water Curtain Walled City.
On the large training ground, Cai Yi, the next pillar of the Eight Treasures Navy, looked at the newspaper in his hand, feeling a little fluctuating.His impression of Victor's strength is still two years ago. At that time, he almost failed to perform a mission in Fallen Bell Village. Victor, who happened to pass by, helped him and worked with him to secretly settle the mission goal. Thanks to my credit, I was able to get the respect of my grandfather Qingjiao.
But at that time, I could feel that although Victor was good in strength, he was only on par with his generals. After that, I had been practicing the eight punch boxing and armed color haki for two years, and I should have left him far behind.
As a result, today's News of the World directly subverted my imagination!
The big photo on the front page of the news is Victor's handsome side face, and the title is even more shocking-"'The King's Shichibukai' fell into the sand in the hometown of the West Sea! The title of 'Western Sea Hero' finally changed hands?"
'King Shichibukai'!
Has he grown so far?It turned out that it was me who was left far behind in the past two years...
"Cai Yi! Wake up quickly!"
Cai Yi, who was in deep thought, was awakened by a burst of shouting.He looked up at the other end of the training ground, and an extremely burly, kind-faced, bald old man was looking at him firmly at this moment, and said in a stern tone:
"He is him, and you are you! You are the thirteenth generation pillar who will command the Babao Navy in the future! Don't let jealousy and comparison destroy yourself!"
Cai Yi snorted, danced a pirouette with the naginata in his hand, and said loudly: "You are so confused, old man, I am not the kind of boring guy who will be jealous of his good brothers! Victor is indeed powerful, but if I practice hard, I will definitely not be worse than him! Come on, I can still fight! Keep fighting!"
The leader Qingjiao laughed in relief, raised his fists and also opened his posture.

West Sea, Sound Pier, Alghero Town.
A brand new ketch was moored in the harbor.
Its bow is a bust of the goddess of victory with two wings. The overall hull has a streamlined design. The surface of the hull is painted in a dark blue main color. The new logo of 'Coral' - two crossed zippers - is painted on the sail.
Victor, wearing a black velvet cloak, stood on the pier, admiring this beautiful sailboat that was like a work of art.
The gray-haired Wen Delu was standing beside Victor in a straight black suit, introducing the newly-launched ship to the latter.
"Boss, this is a two-masted schooner built according to your requirements. The streamlined hull and huge power make it extremely fast. At the same time, the number of cannons installed is reduced according to your requirements. Maximize overall speed."
Victor nodded in satisfaction: "What's her name?"
Wen Drew bowed slightly: "I was about to ask you to give her a good name."
Victor rubbed his chin and thought for a while before deciding on the name of the ship.
"...Just call her 'Beagle'."
Wen Delu nodded with a smile, and then greeted the other gang members standing aside:
"Did you hear everything? Immediately draw the name of the ship on the sails and sides of the ship. Notify Little Jack and prepare to take people to move fresh water and food into the cabin."
"Ah, no need to bother." Victor flicked his index finger slightly, and a slender zipper flew directly to the outside of the Berger's hull. A huge zipper immediately appeared at the location where it was shot.
"Nylon zipper·logistics octopus."
The zipper opened on its own, revealing the deep, matte zipper space inside. Then, the upper and lower rows of chain teeth flew out dozens of thick zippers under the control of Victor's 'network', constantly rolling up goods and buckets and stuffing them into the zipper space like the tentacles of a giant octopus.
Under the stunned gazes of many gang members, the supplies on the dock were quickly cleared away. All zippers were automatically retracted and re-opened, and the Berger's draft did not even increase by 1c.
Victor hooked his fingers and retracted the 'guiding zipper'.
He turned to look at Wendrew and Krasner standing beside him, and said gently: "I'm going to officially go to sea tomorrow morning. Mr. Wendrew, I'll leave it to you in the West Sea. Krasner, security matters I leave full authority to you to ensure the safety of Mr. Windrew."
"Please rest assured, boss." The two said in unison.
Afterwards, Wen Delu said with a little worry: "Boss, I'm still a little worried. You're only taking so many people with you this trip, and I'm worried that you will even have to leave the field yourself in case of bad weather..."
Victor laughed heartily: "Mr. Windrew, have you forgotten? I am the son of a fisherman! How can any fisherman not know how to sail a boat? Don't worry, Perona is an excellent navigator, and Wu Hongji has great cooking skills." Yes, Robin's flowering fruit and my chain fruit are fully capable of all the tasks that sailors need to be responsible for."
He stretched his waist, and said comfortably: "This time I am not going to the great route to fight and kill, just treat it as I am going there for a vacation, Mr. Wendrew. Alright, the banquet at the headquarters Is it about to start? We can’t make everyone wait too long, let’s go.”
Victor beckoned to the two of them, and walked towards the garden of the headquarters first.

Great route.
An unknown autumn island.
The sun shines in the room with warm colors. A tall man with his feet up on the table, lying on the chair as if in deep sleep, has an open novel covering his face, with the name of the novel printed on the cover—— - "A Hero Appears".
squeak-squeak-
The door was quietly pushed open, and a black-haired girl in a maid outfit gently placed a stack of newspapers on the table next to the sleeping man, and then tiptoed out of the room.
After a long time, a slightly annoyed soliloquy sounded in the quiet room.
"... Doesn't this girl know how big her movements are?"
The man casually threw away the novel covering his face, picked up the sunglasses next to the newspaper and put it on his face.
"Ok?"
Taking a casual glance at the newspaper, the man was attracted by the explosive headline on the front page. He picked up the newspaper and read the report.
"咈咈咈咈咈... Interesting, really interesting. A little gangster from the sea defeated the 'King Shichibukai'? Is this world crazy?"
He laughed and threw away the newspaper, picked up a bottle of wine and drank it.
At this time, a tall, thin man with a face full of festoon ink broke into the room and shouted excitedly: "Dover! Come, come!"
"Diamandi, calm down and don't let others look down upon you."
The blond man known as 'Dover' stood up and put on a pink feathered coat.
Not long after, the man met a World Government employee wearing a white suit and a festive mask in a large and spacious room.
The man held a small phone bug in his hand, and the phone bug's expression turned into a stern and old face.
"Doflamingo, stop your childish nonsense. Is it interesting to rob the ship escorting 'Heavenly Gold'? Hurry up and return 'Heavenly Gold' in full, we can still treat you as a joke..."
"Hey, do you think I'm joking? Or do you want to kill me? Think clearly, old guys, I can reveal the secret of the 'national treasure' at any time! You want to see Those 'd' reactions? Baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!"
"...What on earth do you want to do?" The majestic voice on the other end of the phone had a hint of irritation.
"Let's talk about the same thing. First..."
"I want to become the 'King Shichibukai'!"
