The internal strife was going to end eventually. When Li Yu and the others returned to Sea God through the forest, they didn't notice that there was a group of people watching them from the shadows.
Li Yu was on the verge of rage during the battle. Until now, his sensitive six senses had not recovered, so he did not notice that someone was observing them in the dark. After Phantom and the other two left, a shrunken man with a small mustache walked out of the forest. Behind him was a large group of navy soldiers.
"Hehe ~!" He watched Sea God's shadow leave and laughed strangely.
In the next few days, Li Yu felt extremely irritated. He and Sanji always quarreled over some trivial matters, and Kirby acted as a lobbyist, pulling Li Yu back from the edge of anger every time.
Gradually, Li Yu learned to be calm and collected. The annoyance he felt at the beginning was gone. Now, no matter how much Sanji mocked him, he would reply to Sanji with even more sarcastic words. Their scolding skills had obviously improved again.
With hundreds of kilograms of iron sand tied to his legs, Li Yu was doing jumping training in the training room. His breathing was a little short. Li Yu walked out of the cabin when he heard Kirby's shout.
"Oh my ~ Another newspaper?!" Li Yu raised his eyebrows and smiled. He saw the newspaper in Kirby's hand and wiped the sweat off his face with his sleeve.
Kirby didn't answer. He had a complicated smile on his face as he took out a large stack of bounty slips from the newspaper and handed them to Li Yu.
It had been more than a month since the battle in Kekeyaxi Village. Under Li Yu's insistence, the bandage on his left hand was finally removed. At that time, the left hand still looked very terrifying. There were red webs on the perfectly fine palm, as if it had been cut into many pieces of meat.
However, Li Yu knew that these red lines were just wounds that had not fully healed. He believed that these red lines would disappear soon.
Sure enough, after a few days of adaptation, Li Yu's left hand had recovered and was still strong. And because of the green stone, there was not even a scar left on it. Now, he could train in weightlifting, arm strength, and saber techniques, which made Li Yu extremely excited!
After taking the bounty from Kirby, Li Yu felt something in his heart. When he flipped the bounty to the middle, he saw a familiar face.
Green eyes, bloodstained face.
This person was him!
Although the amount was only 350,000,000 Bailey, it still made Li Yu happy for a long time. This was the first step to success! Although it was 350,000,000 now, the number would rise to an unattainable height in the near future. Li Yu's mood surged.
At this moment, Sanji happened to come out with food. He put the food on the table in a bad mood. His eyes were cold as he suddenly shouted,"James, you damned brat, get out here!!!!”
His violent howl was like a demonic sound, making Li Yu, who had just calmed down, frown. He thought to himself,'This fellow's Eastern River Pig Roar has improved again!”
"Ahhhh…My beetle Little Green is missing. Sanji, did you see that?" At this moment, James 'anxious voice came from the cabin. The voice got closer and closer. Finally, James rushed to the front of everyone.
" Phew…" James patted his chest as he ran. At this moment, Sanji took out a white handkerchief from somewhere. On the handkerchief was a small green beetle. Beside the beetle was vegetable oil as usual.
"Ah! It's Little Green…Wuwuwu, Sanji, I'm not done with you. Why do you always fry my bugs? Did they offend you? " You, you, you…" James pointed at Sanji and trembled. Looking at Greenie's miserable body, he could not help but feel sad.
"Damn it!" Sanji rolled up the white handkerchief in his hand into a ball and threw it at James. He said angrily,""I haven't settled the score with you yet! Our feud has been going on for a long time. If you have the ability, don't raise these stupid bugs. Do you think I like to fry them? Do you know how many times I've changed the dishes for them…If there's not enough food on the ship, I'll look for you!……F * ck!"
Li Yu was bored and dozed off, his snot expanding and shrinking. James was indeed a little too much, but since Sanzhi was Li Yu's sworn enemy, he didn't intend to speak up for Sanzhi!
The argument between the two continued until Li Yu woke up. It was just in time for them to eat…Although the dishes were already cold, the taste was not bad.
The past few days had been different from usual. When they were fishing on the fishing platform, they would notice that the variety of fish in the nearby sea area had increased significantly. There were some fish that Sanji had only seen on the map that should be from other sea areas. Now that he saw the real fish, he was extremely excited.
Having gotten tired of their previous taste, Gui Mei and the other two were truly satisfied with the fresh fish. Even Li Yu "let bygones be bygones" and gave Sanji this comment: "Stinky chef, there are no worms in today's dishes ~~? (???)?”
His words made Sanji fly into a rage. He threatened to teach Li Yu and James a lesson.
Kirby held a compass in one hand and a telescope in the other as he stood on the observation deck and looked into the distance. He knew that they would reach Roguetown within five days if everything went as expected. That town was the hometown of the Pirate King Roger. That town was where the Pirate King went to sea. That town was also the small town where the Pirate King executed his punishment.
Therefore, it was also known as the place where the beginning and the end were.
After sailing for so long, they were finally about to reach Roguetown. Kirby couldn't help but sigh. That was the town closest to the Great Sea Route. After that, they would reach the UpMountain of the Red Earth University. The water flow on the mountain was from bottom to top, and it would automatically transport ships from various sea areas to the Great Sea Route.
The great sea route was the goal of all men on the sea!
We're almost at Roguetown. Will the great sea route be far? On the surface, Ghost's crew members didn't seem to be doing well, but they had started crazy training in secret. James was among them. He soaked in the bug room every day and fiddled with something.
The influence of the green stone was still very wide. Although Li Yu always wore it, its effect spread throughout the entire Sea God. Using Li Yu's Ghost Eyes, he could see that the entire Sea God was covered in warm white light. This white light had a great effect on nourishing the body, improving combat strength, and agility. Even James, who had always been weak, became stronger under the nourishment of the white light.
Apart from cooking, Sanji had been going in and out of the captain's training room frequently recently. This was because the training room was filled with training equipment and sandbags that he needed. Although he didn't like to see Li Yu's face, after weighing the pros and cons, he compromised. He used sandbags and iron lead to train his leg strength every day. Because of the Emerald Stone, he received the most benefits besides Li Yu!
As for Li Yu? After the battle with Hawkeye, he had one more martial arts course-Iron Palm.
Although he didn't have to use Iron Palm to hit people, Li Yu knew that if he didn't practice his hand to be stronger, the next time he used Thunderstorm Slash, it would be tantamount to self-harm.
As for the Iron Palm, Li Yu started with rice, then soybeans, stones, iron sand, and so on.
This was the most effective training method for the Iron Palm. Although it took a long time, it was practical! Li Yu still didn't dare to put his hand into the iron sand. He thought that if that was the case, he would definitely apply for a disability certificate first. Even if he became disabled in the end, he would still receive benefits!
During the five days of recuperation, the numbness and itch in his right palm gradually disappeared, and he gradually regained his senses. On the fourth day, the pain in his right hand completely disappeared. Li Yu knew that it was time to remove the stitches. Therefore, he did not avoid Sanji and began to remove the bandages in the training room.
Seeing that Li Yu had started to remove the bandages, Sanji, who was practicing, came over. He also wanted to see how the green-haired monster's hand was doing. After all, Ah Long had bitten deeply into Li Yu's right hand bone. The overwhelming pain had driven the usually cautious Li Yu crazy!
The light in the training room wasn't dim, so when Li Yu saw what happened to his right hand, his reaction was very calm. He just smiled. As for Sanji, his eyes were wide open as he stared at the center of Li Yu's hand, where there was an unusually hideous red scar.
At this moment, his right hand did not have the same red marks as his left hand when he removed the stitches. The back of its hand was sickly pale, and on top of this pale color, there was a thick and long blood-red scar that formed a sharp contrast with it.
The scar extended from the back of his hand to the second joint of his right middle finger. It ran through his entire hand, making him look ferocious and terrifying. Li Yu knew that such a thick scar couldn't be cured even with the green light stone that nourished his body.
He sneered. Obviously, he didn't take it to heart. In Li Yu's opinion, it was normal for a man to have a few scars. Scars were a man's medal. Li Yu had a medal on the back of his hand, so what was there to be dissatisfied about?!
Although the scar was so hideous that it was almost terrifying, Li Yu was still in a good mood because his right hand had finally recovered! Okiyama Osamu smiled brightly and Li Yu said,""Blondie, I'm in such a good mood today, aren't you going to…express your gratitude?!”
Sanji seemed to know what he was talking about, and his face turned pale."This, green algae head, how, how did you know? Did Corby…Corby tell you?”
" You don't have to worry about how I know. There are no walls in this world that cannot be kept secret…I know you guys, hehe…"
Li Yu smiled evilly, rubbing his left index finger and thumb together. In Sanji's eyes, this was really despicable to the extreme. He suddenly cursed,"F * ck, I knew I shouldn't have believed that grandson. He looked gentle on the surface, but he was actually a big spy!!”He gritted his teeth and roared, but Li Yu looked at him ambiguously.
Sanji seemed to have made up his mind. He mumbled,"Uh…Alright, but if I take out that fish, you have to do something!”
"Alright, I'll give you ten bottles of good Brandy, that's all I can offer. How is it?" Li Yu's expression was pained. He personally took care of the wine cellar on the ship. 10 bottles of high-quality Brandy were enough for him to drink for 10 days!
"Good! Deal!" Sanji gritted his teeth. He felt that this chip was not bad and left the cabin.
The incident could be traced back to a few days ago. When Kirby was fishing on the fishing platform, he caught a big-headed strange fish with huge eyes and thick lips. This fish was about half a meter long, but its head took up two-thirds of its body!
Although he had caught many strange-shaped fish in the past few days, he had never seen such a strange big-headed fish. He had asked Sanji to help him identify the fish, but he had not expected that Sanji would be so excited that his lips trembled and his cigarette would fall out.
"This is…this is the expensive fragrant fish…the expensive fragrant fish of the West Ocean!!!”He muttered to himself and finally flew to the side of the fish. His fingers trembled as he repeatedly stroked the scales of the fish.
Sanji had only seen this kind of fish in the illustrated fish guide. However, it was still fresh in his memory. Its eyes were unusually large and looked crystal clear, but it could not be eaten. Because the eyes were the only poisonous part of the fish, it was necessary to dig out the eyes before cooking. Otherwise, the poison would spread throughout the entire body! The method of making this kind of fish was exquisite, and after cooking them, the taste was even more indescribable.
Even in the West Ocean, the precious fragrant fish was extremely rare!!!
Originally, this fish was only half a meter long. It was definitely not enough for the four of them to eat together! Sanji was very hostile to Li Yu and James, so he discussed with Corby privately whether they should keep the fish for themselves. Kobe didn't say anything at that time, and Sanji thought that he had tacitly admitted it. Who would have thought that this guy would secretly tell Li Yu the news!
While cooking fish in the kitchen, Sanji ground his teeth. He shouted angrily in his heart, To think that I trusted you so much. Kirby, just you wait!!!”
About an hour later, the cooked fragrant fish was finally placed on the table! A strange milk fragrance spread out, and the entire fish body became hazy. Sanji used the method of milk cooking, allowing the fragrance of milk to fully integrate into the fragrant fish. The fish was tender and juicy. Li Yu drank wine while eating the fish. It was delicious and he couldn't help but exclaim in joy!
Tomorrow, they would arrive at Roguetown. The four of them could only use this limited time to relax. James was engrossed in eating, while Kirby was elegantly drinking his coffee while Sanji was savoring the aroma of the fragrant fish.
The thick fragrance seemed to have brought back memories of Sanji. Ever since he came to Phantom, he had been clamoring to leave, and he had been constantly in conflict with Li Yu and James. But only he knew.
Actually, he had already…treated this place as his home!
