The next day, you'll be reporting to Admiral Sengoku, hey! Unfortunately, I thought that after you completely took the girl from Gion, you'd be taken under Vice Admiral Tsuru's wing and sent on an internship. That way, it'll be easy to get promoted in the future. But who would have thought that Admiral Sengoku would suddenly return to the New World, it's a long way, and I don't know if you'll have time to visit that girl in Marineford in the future...
Leonardo had just returned home. His father was already waiting for him. When he saw his son, he shook his head and exclaimed regretfully, sipping a drink with berries.
- So why did you call me to tease her, dad? That girl was just making fun of me, okay? That girl stole my precious first kiss. -_-||
Leonardo sat down with a depressed expression on his face.
- You're a man, sooner or later things like the first kiss get lost, but... Was it really that girl from Gion who started teasing you? You're not lying, are you? (⊙_⊙)?
Old Curry waved his hand indifferently, but quickly grasped the meaning of his son's words.
His son is in good shape, he has inherited the best traditions of their Curry family. In a word – handsome!
At 18, he didn't ask his family for a penny, and was granted lifelong freedom in Sabaody District 5. When he went out to sea, the entire District 5 was closed.
Even at forty he could look eighteen - this is proof...
But... The girl from Gion is the vice admiral's younger sister, she's hardly so superficial as to judge by appearance alone, right?
If so, then Vice Admiral Tsuru was found by Admiral Sengoku over ten years ago.
- Dad, I see mistrust in your eyes. If it weren't for the academy, your son would have already been bitten by that bitch.
- By the way, Dad, do you have a sword collection or something? I'm a swordsman now, and I'm heading to the New World with Admiral Sengoku soon. Do you mind if I take this old sword?
Leonardo felt his father's questioning gaze and did not go into further explanations. After all, rumors were already circulating throughout Marineford that he himself had started flirting. A hundred mouths to feed were not enough.
The difference between a vice admiral and a vice admiral is huge. They are both second generation... No, if you count his grandfather, he is already third generation. Carrying around that old sword that costs hundreds of bellies is a disgrace for a settler. Whoever came here received a set of divine equipment, but he arrived with a level 0 and a small broken knife.
- Wait.
Old Curry gave him a stupid look, got up and ran upstairs. Three minutes later he returned, holding a sword.
With a very serious expression on his face, he walked up to his son, picked up the sword in both hands and held it out to him.
- there are only twelve of these things in the world. I heard that Whitebeard one of them. I haven't seen the other eleven. This sharp sword is the twenty-first, "Gonbu". Your grandfather received it in his youth. I don't know how he curried favor with the Fleet Admiral, but he, in a good mood, awarded him this sword. Then your grandfather passed it on to me. I've already decided that next year I'll officially retire, and I won't need it anymore. Now I'm passing it on to you. "Gonbu" hasn't been drawn since your grandfather's time and has accompanied me for decades. It is truly a sword of kindness. I hope you won't let it out of its sheath...
Σ(?д?lll)
- He hasn't been naked for decades? Then how have you been chopping people up all these years (⊙_⊙)?
Leonardo took this "Sword of mercy" and examined it carefully. The handle and sheath were silver, decorated with beautiful rubies. It looked really impressive, but after his father's words, Leonardo was shocked.
- It's a shaft, not a sword, if it hasn't been taken out of its sheath for decades!
- It's an advantage to have connections at the top. Decades in the industry, son. Although I'm not as handsome as your grandfather, I've dealt with a crowd of marauders. Naturally, I didn't have to use strange things. In any case, I hope you won't let him get out of his sheath. I only have one son. When you get to the New World, follow Admiral Sengoku honestly. Don't think about standing out like you did in school. The New World is not our place, it's a paradise for big pirates. I don't want the gray-haired one sending the black-haired one...
After old Curry told about his successful life, he again warned his son, full of concern.
- Okay, you taught me everything, don't worry about it. If anything, you can still have a child with mom. Vice-Admiral Leonardo's parents are so old that they can still have children... - someone said sarcastically.
Leonardo put away the sword... ugh! "The blade of mercy," he muttered, attaching it to his belt.
Even if Old Man Curry didn't talk about the problem of pathetic cultivation, Leonardo knew about it. Wait until the remaining three leaves ignite, break through to the great swordsman, combine Armament Haki and Observation Haki. When he reaches the maximum, it will be time to act.
As for Conqueror's Haki... he hadn't counted on that. Apparently, his grandfather was a vice admiral who flattered the former Marine Fleet Admiral, and his father was an even more honest man. From a genetic standpoint, it seemed like he had no chance of awakening the potential for Conqueror's Haki. Besides, it was unlikely that alot in the Marines have Conqueror's Haki. There weren't many pirates like him in the New World, and even fewer marines. It all depended on a person's ambitions and character.
But this thing is useful in the hands of future Red-Haired Shanks, although it can only be used to intimidate small enemies. In the original book, Akainu, Aokiji, and Yellow Monkey did not have Conqueror's Haki, and they still dealt with the New World pirates who did have it. Isn't that right?
Armament Haki and Observation Haki are the most important. Conqueror's Haki is given from birth, it cannot be developed, so here you can only accept your fate. For an ordinary person, it is useless.
And much more...
Why is Red-Haired Shanks' Conqueror's Haki so strong? Is he really that great? (⊙_⊙)
Leonardo seems to have discovered something incredible. Loyalty sometimes looks like betrayal, as in the case of Roger. Who would have thought that Roger, who seemed so simple, would become the King of the Pirates in the future?
How similar are the Red Hair Pirates from the original book to the current Roger Pirates...
