The next morning, Linley woke up early, and before the townspeople could wake up, he left the inn.
He woke up so early today with a purpose. He was looking for a suitable place to cultivate.
Because Linley's Fiendfruit was a bomb fruit, training would definitely cause a very loud noise. Thus, the area had to be far away from human habitation.
Fortunately, the island Linley was on was still extremely large. Aside from the Rock's Deepwater Pier, where the town was located, the rest of the island was mostly deep in the mountains and forests.
Practically no one on the island would venture deep into the interior of the island. Thus, Linley only needed to find a suitable location.
After an entire morning of inquiries and reconnaissance, Linley finally decided to use a plain on the southwest side of the island as his training ground.
After returning to the town, he entrusted the construction company with the specifications and location of the villa and training ground to be built. After paying the deposit, he discussed with the hiring company about hiring servants and bodyguards.
Linley began to roam the entire city, gathering information about the sea.
Through chatting with the bookstore owner, Linley gained a better understanding of the town he was in. This town was called Rock Town, and was famous for its Rock Harbor, the largest transit port in the West Sea.
Every day, hundreds of merchant ships came and went, and they had to transit through Rock Town. It was also the prosperous sea transportation that created the prosperity of Rock Town.
Less than 300 nautical miles away from Rock Harbor was West Ocean's largest naval base, W-1 Base.
Speaking of which, this name really made one want to ridicule it. Every time he heard this name, Linley would always think of some eSports club.
In order to protect the safety of passing ships and prevent them from being harassed by pirates, the W-1 base had a lieutenant general, three major generals, dozens of colonel-level officers, and more than 50,000 naval soldiers stationed all year round!
Of course, these people weren't from the headquarters. They were all from the branch.
But even so, with a powerful military force stationed there, there was still bad news coming from nearby.
For example, the XX merchant ship was looted by pirates, and the XX town was looted by pirates and killed many people…From this, it could be seen that Roger's era of the great pirate had brought about a bad influence.
"Roger, what a sin!"
The most recent major event in the world was the rebellion of the Ohara scholars.
Scholars who were world-renowned for their academic research were all sentenced to death.
At the same time, the youngest prisoner in history with a bounty of 79 million was born, the son of the devil, Nicole Robin.
Linley also noticed that when he spoke of the Son of the Fiend, the bookstore owner's entire person had become greedy, and his eyes were almost glowing with golden light.
"Master, is money really that attractive?”
" Counterfeit money makers, don't talk to me about the attraction of money."
After gathering information, Linley walked back to his hotel, thinking about how he should proceed in this world.
"System, do you have any suggestions?”
"We don't know either."
"Eh, I knew it." Before Linley could finish, the system continued,
"However, I can give you a general direction, Master."
For some reason, the system had been enjoying talking half-heartedly recently.
Linley had the feeling that this system was getting stranger and stranger.
"Alright, go ahead."
" Master, from a general perspective, you have three choices. One is to join the navy…"
"No." Linley immediately denied it."I can't stand the navy."
"Second, become a revolutionary army."
"I don't think so. Dolag is still on my kill list."
"Then I can only be a pirate."
"As a pirate, I should have a goal, right?" Linley thought for a moment. If he wanted to be a pirate, then so be it. At the very least, he had freedom.
"Seven Martial Seas, Four Sovereigns…So annoying…" Scratching his head, Linley decisively threw this matter to the side. He would take this troublesome matter one step at a time!
In the next few days, Linley spent every day wandering around the city, allowing him to find out quite a bit about the world's situation.
For example, the new Krogdahl had failed to challenge White Beard and lost an arm.
The red-haired man became the Four Sovereigns.
In short, the situation on the sea was a mess. There was a small fight every three days and a big fight every five days! This strengthened Linley's resolve to increase his power.
The topic returned to the villa that Linley was currently building.
The people of the Pirate World worked with their lives on the line. Linley wasn't stingy with money, so he sped up the construction. In just a week, the villa was completed.
When they arrived at the southwest coast, they saw a small castle built beside a mountain. It stood on the mountainside and faced a vast plain. Easy to defend, hard to attack.
After entering the house, the floor was covered with soft bear skin, a tall fireplace, and an ancient oil painting, greatly enhancing the style of the castle. Of course, he would just spend the money like water.
"Not bad." Linley praised. This castle truly did satisfy him. The hundreds of millions of counterfeit money he had spent on it had not been in vain.
After settling the balance of the payment, he dismissed the builders and handed over the servants and guards to the butler.
Linley walked into the castle by himself, arriving at the training grounds located at the back of the castle. There were all sorts of training equipment available.
There were also several Han physicians who had been hired at a high price, standing guard at the side, providing medical treatment and nursing care for Linley's training.
The reason why he called for a doctor was that his current body was too young. Due to transmigration, his body had turned from an 18-year-old adult to a 16-year-old.
This was the time for growth. If he continued to train, it would only cause serious internal injuries and affect his future.
As Linley continued to train and pay close attention to the world, time ticked by.
At this point in time, Krogdahl had appeared in Alabastan to clear out the pirates, Robin was still on the run, Nami had just been adopted, and Luffy had not yet been born…
As a large port in the West Sea, Rock Harbor had a complicated network of people to spread news. Therefore, today, he received news from the butler that Nicole Robin was hiding somewhere on the island.
At the same time, a large number of bounty hunters swarmed over with the news.
That night, Linley finished his training under the guidance of the increasingly strange system. He was eating dinner, thinking about whether or not he should go to the town the next day to search for Nicole and Robin.
Suddenly, a few black-suited bodyguards entered the dining room, carrying a petite figure in their hands. They respectfully walked over to Linley's dining table.
"Boss, a maid just found a thief stealing food in the kitchen."
"Oh?" Linley raised his head, staring at the pale-faced, dirty-covered little girl.
"Do you want to punish her?"
When Linley saw what the little girl looked like, he suddenly laughed. He thought to himself,"I was planning to go to the town tomorrow to look for you. I didn't expect you to come knocking on my door."
As the little loli Robin gulped, Linley put a spoonful of special fried rice into his mouth.
She looked at the two bodyguards in black and confirmed that they did not realize that the little girl they had caught was the son of the devil, Nicole Robin, who was worth 79 million yuan.
"Alright, leave her here."
Under the ambiguous gazes of the bodyguards, Linley dismissed all the outsiders. He left his seat, walked over to Robin, and squatted down.
She gently smoothed Robin's messy hair and whispered the name she didn't want to hear the most in her frightened eyes, Nicole Robin.
