The Hercules competition was divided into three processes. The first was the simplest arm wrestling, from which a large number of strong men were selected. The second event was a tug-of-war. Two people held the long rope and pulled it in opposite directions. Whoever could pull the other party down would win. The third event was a dangerous competition. The organizers would pick the strongest bull in the village to head against them. Whoever could withstand the bull's head force would be the winner of the Hercules competition. Those who could not resist and were " accidentally " trampled to death by the bull could only admit their bad luck!
In the central square of the street, the competition was ongoing. Li Yu, who had won two games in a row, was ready to challenge the last event-the Bulls.
Shaking his arms, Li Yu looked at those so-called brawny men and warriors who were knocked back and forth by the bull. "You're really useless!" he sneered.”In the past, the iron weights and boulders he used to practice hard body skills every day weighed hundreds of pounds. This bull in front of him was really a piece of cake for him.
Crossing his arms in front of his chest, Li Yu looked at the bull in front of him contemptuously…This beast seemed to have no idea how powerful the enemy in front of him was. It dug the soil with its front hooves, snorted, and rushed at Li Yu with its fiery eyes. Its momentum was so strong that ordinary people would definitely be knocked to the ground by it. However, Li Yu didn't care. He quickly reached out and grabbed the bull's front horns with both hands.
The bull felt a sharp pain on its forehead. It did not expect the man in front of it to grab its strongest horn without fear of death. It glared at him and exerted more strength on its feet, trying its best to head towards him.
Li Yu chuckled and turned his wrist. The bull immediately felt a sharp pain in its head and was lifted up by Li Yu.
The surrounding people widened their eyes and exclaimed. Although there were all kinds of strong people in One Piece's world, on this remote island, people had never seen those true strong people.
At this moment, Li Yu exerted strength with both hands again. With a turn of his arm, the hill-like bull was sent flying. Rumble…It smashed a large area of the hut.
After being stunned for a long time, the audience who reacted immediately burst into thunderous applause and screams. Then, the cheers became louder and louder. They had never seen such a powerful warrior before, and they could not help but admire him!
Clapping his hands, Li Yu didn't even take a deep breath. To be honest, it was a little overkill for him to deal with these cattle and sheep.
After that, under the admiring gazes of the villagers, Li Yu, who had gotten carried away, took away the 50,000 Bailey reward. As soon as he received the heavy notes, he noticed a very distinctive tavern on the side of the street. He chuckled and strode over.
" Squeak…" The door of the tavern was pushed open, and the noisy tavern instantly fell silent. The people who were celebrating saw a green-eyed boy enter the room. They were slightly stunned. Although they weren't as shocked as Satchir and Lille, they still stared at Li Yu with hostility.
Li Yu was very unhappy to be looked at by so many people at the same time. He snorted coldly and walked to the bar counter, shouting,"Give me three barrels of whiskey! " Also, prepare some cooked beef…" The lady boss looked at Li Yu and was stunned. Although she was surprised that he asked for three barrels of liquor, she still brought it for him.
Li Yu didn't say anything. He chose a corner of the tavern and sat there, drinking whiskey like crazy. In his previous life, he loved to drink hard liquor. Vodka, whiskey, rum, Brandy... He had been involved in them before. Ever since he reincarnated, Li Yu and Saka would often sneak into the tavern to steal wine when they were not practicing martial arts. After stealing, they would drink a lot of roasted meat…Thinking back to that time, the two of them were happy, drinking big mouthfuls of wine and eating big chunks of meat. Their days were quite comfortable.
The people in the tavern saw that although the green kid's eyes were terrifying, he did not seem to have any ill intentions. He couldn't help but let go and continued to chat. In an instant, the tavern returned to its usual noisy state.
During this time, the door of the tavern opened and closed again and again. People went out and came in, but Li Yu didn't care at all. He just sat alone in the corner and drank wine, reminiscing about life.
He felt someone pat him on the shoulder. A young man wearing sunglasses with words carved on his face looked at Li Yu with shining eyes. Li Yu's lips curled up. He didn't expect that the other party was not afraid of him and would take the initiative to talk to him. He asked with great interest,"What's the matter?"
When the young man heard Li Yu speak, he couldn't help but say excitedly,""Brother, I just saw you easily win the competition in the village. I really admire you. Are you a pirate hunter? If it's possible, bring me along…I also want to go out to sea to adventure!”
Li Yu laughed and thought to himself,""I was just worrying about my companions. I didn't expect someone to come so soon.”He patted the young man's shoulder, but he said,""You're ambitious, but I'm penniless now. It's very difficult to drive a pirate ship to the sea or explore the great sea route! You can't follow me without a strong ability!”
The young man wanted to say something more, but Li Yu interrupted him,""Hey, I didn't take a closer look just now. Your face is a mess. What is this? Tattoo? "You're quite fashionable…Haha…" Li Yu said and laughed without restraint.
The man was a little uneasy. He gritted his teeth and said,"This is my name…Johnny!”As he spoke, he puffed out his chest and said proudly,"Scars are a man's medal. I carved words on my face. When those hooligans saw me, they were scared out of their wits before they could make a move!”
Li Yu nodded, but he snorted coldly in his heart,""What's the use of a paper tiger? It shattered at the touch of a finger and couldn't withstand a single blow. Kid, you'll know when you meet a true expert!”At this moment, he glanced over and saw a bounty on the wall next to the bar with his amazing eyesight. "Huh?" He quickly asked Johnny to pass it to him.
Johnny handed Li Yu the bounty list. "Big brother!" You don't mind me calling you that…do you?!”Seeing that Li Yu had lowered his head and didn't answer, she heaved a sigh of relief and asked,""Big brother, what…what's your name?”
Li Yu lowered his head to look at the profile picture on the reward list, but he replied,""Nonoya? Sauron!"
"Brother Sauron, didn't you say you were short of money?" Johnny was delighted. I just thought of two ways!" Li Yu raised his head and said,""Speak!"
After receiving permission, Johnny immediately became serious and said,"The first is to join some powerful pirate groups. This way, not only will the problem of living be solved, but I also think that with your strength, the pirate group you belong to will definitely be able to develop in the East China Sea. One day, it won't be a problem for you to become the vice-captain of the pirate group!”He thought that Li Yu would be grateful to him, but Li Yu just shook his head lazily and denied,""No!"
"Why?" Johnny asked.”Li Yu shook his neck and said," I, Sauron, will never bow down to anyone in my life. I never did it before…and I will never do it again!"”He said it casually, but his words revealed a lot of dominance. Coupled with his evil ghost eyes, Johnny was immediately shocked. "What about the second one?" Li Yu said calmly, reminding Johnny to come back to his senses.
Johnny gritted his teeth and sighed.”As he spoke, he pointed at the pirate bounty on the table and said,"Did you see that? This person's nickname was 'Killer-Kelly', and he had a bounty of 50,000,000 Bailey! He should be on this small island in the East China Sea or an island nearby. If Big Brother killed him and handed him over to the naval base, he would receive a bounty of 800,000 Bailey!”
After he finished speaking, Li Yu smiled brightly and said,"Do you want me to be a bounty hunter?”"That's right!" Johnny nodded. Bounty hunters had to travel all over the country and were also responsible for finding pirates wandering around. "Bro, you…" Johnny was halfway through his sentence when Li Yu waved his hand to stop him."Bounty hunters! Haha…this is a good job! " I like…" With that, he picked up the bounty and stood up. "Big brother, where are you going?" Johnny asked in shock.!”
Li Yu turned around and waved the bounty in his hand. He smiled and said,""Of course I'm going to find him! "We'll meet again…" After saying that, he pushed the door open and left without looking back.
Johnny opened his mouth and sighed as he looked at Li Yu's back in disappointment.
**********************
……
The scenery around him seemed to be the same. Li Yu turned around and felt dizzy. He muttered to himself gloomily,"It's over, it's over. My old habits are coming back again!"……This damned body!" He had just come out of the tavern and wandered aimlessly all the way until he entered the dense forest. He could no longer walk out.
Li Yu hated the fact that he had a bad sense of direction! This problem had caused him a lot of losses over the past six years…In the past, it was all thanks to Saka that he had been searching for Li Yu, who was lost, in the depths of the forest. Now that Saka was gone, Li Yu could only fend for himself!
After passing through the trees for a while, Li Yu, who had sharp senses, heard the sound of seawater splashing on the shore. She immediately smiled in surprise and quickened her pace, running towards the source of the sound…
After splitting a thick layer of thorns, blue seawater appeared in front of Li Yu. He laughed happily and strode forward.
After leaving the dark forest, Li Yu's vision widened. Apart from seeing the sea in front of him, he also saw a rather huge pirate ship docked not far away. There was a long-necked swan at the bow of the ship, and the pirate flag was a skeleton with a red heart on its head.
Li Yu pursed his lips. He didn't recognize this pirate flag. However, an idea flashed in his mind. He narrowed his eyes and stared at the pirate ship. A few images immediately appeared in front of him.
There was a fat woman leading a group of pirates to kill and pillage, a pink-headed boy cowering at the corner of the ship being taught a lesson by a large group of crew members, and a fat woman standing on the deck with a huge spiked club and laughing loudly.
Seeing all this, Li Yu smiled evilly and said to himself,""The heavens are helping me! " I was just worried about not having a boat…You…" Li Yu suddenly stopped mid-sentence. His face changed, and his ears twitched. He didn't have time to think about it and used his movement technique to quickly rush towards the big ship. He tapped the hull of the ship with his left and right toes and jumped onto the deck after a few jumps. At this moment, he heard voices from below the ship. He quickly squatted down and rolled into the cabin of the pirate ship...
At this moment, a large group of pirates walked out of the forest. One of them was an ugly and fat woman wearing a hat. She held a spiked club as thick as a human waist and laughed loudly."I'm really full this time ~ I even snatched a lot of good things! Don't you think…? Kirby?"
At this moment, a small boy with pink hair and glasses squeezed up from the back of the line. He trembled and muttered,"Yes, yes! Lord Arita…!" The other crew members could not help but laugh when they saw the kid's cowardly look. Even Arita laughed impudently.
Everyone laughed as they walked towards the pirate ship.
