"Little brat, you know the difference between us, right? You also know why I brought you out this time.”Karp said as he sat beside Roy. He was also wrapped in bandages and smelled like medicine.
Only old man Karp was the strongest armed domineering ability user. Facing the fire and lightning, he still suffered some superficial injuries. Overall, he looked much better than Roy.
"I understand more or less. The gap is really a little big. I still need to strengthen myself.”Roy nodded strenuously.
"It's good that you understand. I can save you this time, but I don't know who can save you the next time. Are there any side effects to that technique that overdrafts your body?”Karp asked worriedly. He had obviously been secretly watching Roy's battle while he was fighting Bigummum.
"There are no other side effects. It's just that it consumes too much physical strength.”Roy said.
"Time. You are not young anymore. You are eighteen years old. In this era where pirates are rising, you must grow up quickly. In the future, there will be more and stronger pirates on the sea.”Karp said.
"Is there a faster way?" Roy asked.
"Kid, are you trying to take a shortcut?”Karp glared at Roy.
The shortcut that Karp mentioned actually existed, and that was the Devil's Fruit. However, Roy did not mean that. He shook his head and said,"I'm not talking about the Demon Fruit, but is there any way to quickly cultivate physical techniques?”
Karp's expression softened a lot. He smiled and said,""Brat, are you sure you want to do this?”
"It's good that there's a way. You also said that the era is coming, and I need to become stronger.”Roy said.
"Brat, today, I want to make it clear that there is no shortcut to cultivating physical techniques. If you want to become stronger, you need to constantly fight. Only then can you become stronger. You need to comprehend in the face of death and struggle in the face of despair. Perhaps if you experience what happened yesterday, you will become stronger.”Karp said.
"Stronger than yesterday? That's for sure." Roy laughed.
"That's right. Bodywork cultivators need to constantly give themselves pressure. In the future, no matter what, you have to maintain your spirit and maintain your cultivation attitude. You can't stop for a moment.”Karp said.
Karp's words reminded Roy of Sauron, who had a bad sense of direction. Although Sauron had a bad sense of direction and slept all day long, every night, after the entire crew of the Grass Hat Pirates had fallen asleep, Sauron would be the only one watching the ship while cultivating nonstop.
Roy understood what Karp meant. He nodded and waited for his body to recover.
When the warship returned to G1, Roy was carried back and sent to the infirmary for treatment.
" Karp didn't ask you to fight with Bigumum, nor did he ask you to block the gate. He only asked you to follow Bigumum, but no one ordered you to block the gate.”In G1's largest office, Marshal Sengoku's roar came from the phone bug.
" Zhan Guo, don't make a fuss. It's not like you don't know that when Roger died more than ten years ago, you were the one who asked me to block the door. You also made it so that Bigummum didn't leave the country for more than ten years and kept giving birth on Cake Island. Bigummu has hated me to death for a long time. I was discovered the moment I went and surrounded by tens of thousands of soldiers. Do you think I can escape?”Karp said.
"I don't care what your situation is, but you actually dared to act on your own and almost ruined it. I'm now ordering you as the marshal. You can't leave the G1 branch and stay here.”Zhan Guo said angrily.
"I don't have the time." Lieutenant General He said.
"That's it. Karp, you better stay there and don't go out.”Zhan Guo knew Crane's personality, so he didn't waste any time and directly hung up.
Karp laughed as he sat on the sofa and ate his immortal shell.
" I heard that during the battle with the Bigummum Pirates, Lieutenant General, your adjutant defeated one of Bigummum's Four Generals, Kelika. He also fought with Charlotte Katakuli. Although he lost, he even broke Shan Cha Gu's hand in the end.”The red dog suddenly said.
"Are you talking about that kid Roy? He's still far away. It's because I injured them first before he took advantage of me. That kid's legs went weak when he saw Bigummum.”Karp said.
"But the information I heard was not like that.”The red dog said.
"Your information should have come from the World Business News Agency, right? You actually believed the words of those reporters? This isn't like you, Sakasugi.”Karp said.
"Humph!" Red Hound snorted coldly. He knew that Karp was suppressing Roy's battle achievements. Roy's current performance was not inferior to Vice Admiral. Even if he did not have the strength of a Vice Admiral, he was at least not much inferior.
Red Hound was very envious of such soldiers. Almost every Vice Admiral was equivalent to a naval force, and Red Hound was not the most popular in the navy, so he was the one who needed outstanding subordinates the most.
Luo Yi's appearance was an opportunity. If he could win Luo Yi over to his side, he would have someone to help him in the future. Even though he had the support of many lieutenant generals, he was still a little lacking to control the overall situation.
It was a small matter for Karp to suppress Roy's battle achievements. Roy was now his adjutant. As long as he did not promote Roy, it was almost impossible for Roy to be promoted. In the navy, Karp had a lot of power. He was almost in the top three. All three generals had to give him face. Other than Crane and Sengoku, he did not have to give face to anyone.
The matter passed, but the World Economics Society still published the news. The World Government was very happy to see this kind of news, so under the authorization of the World Government, the news of Lieutenant General Karp fighting the great pirate Bigumum was also spread. At the same time, the news of Karp appearing in the New World was also reported to the pirates of the New World, warning them not to act rashly. There were naval experts in the New World to suppress them.
Other than Karp, Roy also appeared on the second page of the newspaper, reporting how Roy defeated Kelijia and fought Katakuli. Although he lost in the end, he still broke one of Katakuli's arms.
It could be said that Roy's fame spread across the sea as the newspapers spread.
