At that time, he was focused on escaping Impel Down to rescue Ace.
This guy is such a blockhead; most of the time, you have no idea what he's thinking.
That's too far!
In short, it is impossible for Yunxiao to join the Navy.
Although he was quite interested in the Navy's Six Styles, especially Life Return, there would be plenty of ways to get his hands on it later, so there was no need to join the Navy for it.
"Don't refuse so decisively!"
Garp, still unwilling to give up, tried to persuade him further: "Joining the Navy has many benefits! You're so strong and talented, you'll definitely become a Navy Admiral in the future!"
"Not interested in!"
Yunxiao shook his head without hesitation, straightened his somewhat disheveled clothes, and patted the dust off his body.
"That's no fun at all! Why don't you want to join? You don't seem like the kind of person who's ambitious enough to want to be a pirate."
Garp was very puzzled.
A person's temperament can reveal quite a lot.
He didn't see any ambition in Yunxiao for the time being.
"Then tell me, what benefits would I get from joining the Navy? I don't lack money, I have no interest in power! More importantly... I have no interest in being a dog of the Celestial Dragons!"
The last few words were whispered into Garp's ear, one word at a time.
Then, ignoring Garp's slightly changed expression, he turned and walked down the mountain.
He had already met Ace and the others. He had originally planned to have Ace and the others lead the way to the Waste Terminal, but Garp suddenly appeared halfway through, so it seemed he would have to find it himself.
Given his sensory range and the Red Queen's investigative abilities, it shouldn't take much time.
Garp watched Yunxiao's departing figure, sighed deeply, feeling a deep sense of regret, but he couldn't refute Yunxiao's words.
Why didn't he want to be a general?
Isn't that why?
He is actually a free spirit. If it weren't for his sense of justice, and if it weren't for the fact that a group of good friends and brothers who had been through thick and thin with him were in the Navy, perhaps, given his personality, he would have been unable to stand the situation in the Navy and would have defected from it long ago.
Don't think it's impossible.
Garp is inherently lawless.
Who do you think influenced Monkey D. Dragon and Luffy's lawless nature, and from whom did they inherit it?
There's not a single one of them who's easy to deal with.
They're all slackers.
Yunxiao has made his point so clear. It's obvious that although this kid is young, he understands the true nature and darkness of the Navy and the World Government very well!
These kinds of people are the hardest to fool!
"Hahahaha!"
Having figured all this out, Garp threw his head back and burst into loud laughter again. Then, he shouted at Yunxiao, who had already walked away, "Hey! Yunxiao, let's drink and spar together again sometime!"
Upon hearing this, Yunxiao's lips curled slightly, and without turning his head, he raised his hand and waved in response.
"That kid really has a carefree personality! I can't compare!"
Garp gave a self-deprecating laugh.
Then, with a clenched fist and a sinister grin on his face, he walked towards Luffy and the others.
"Luffy! What did you say earlier, you brat?"
"Hey, Ace, run!!"
"Damn it! You old geezer!"
"Luffy! Ace! You two brats, don't you dare run away! I'll beat the crap out of you today!"
"Hey! What does Luffy's mistake have to do with me?"
After saying that, Ace and the others ran even faster.
"What nonsense are you spouting! You're Luffy's brother, so you naturally bear half the responsibility for his mistakes! Take this!!"
"Ow"
"Don't hit my face!!"
""
Suddenly, the mountains and forests echoed with ghostly wails and wolves' howls, as well as Garp's hearty laughter.
"Heh...that old scoundrel!"
Even from afar, the screams of Luffy and Ace, along with Garp's laughter, could still be heard in the clouds.
He shook his head speechlessly: "With this kind of physical education, it's only natural that Ace and Luffy wouldn't want to join the Navy, and that they would reject and hate it!"
He felt that Garp was largely responsible for Luffy and Ace becoming pirates.
"You're finally back! You have no idea, a super terrifying Marine came before! Just his aura alone made me feel suffocated. You didn't just fight with that Marine, did you?"
As soon as Yunxiao returned to the port, Kuina ran over and said to him with a worried expression.
He also carefully examined Yunxiao, seemingly wanting to see if he was injured.
"Yeah! I ran into him! I was forced to spar with him! He's really amazing! He's one of the strongest people on the entire ocean! Of course, he's terrifying!"
Yunxiao smiled and reached out to pat Guina's head.
Kuina's pretty face flushed slightly. She slapped Yunxiao's hand away and asked curiously, "A top expert in the vast ocean? Why would such a big shot come to the East China Sea? Didn't you say the East China Sea is the weakest sea?"
Isn’t this a contradiction?
"Because this is Vice Admiral Garp's hometown!"
At this moment, Makino came over with some supplies and explained.
Then he said to Yunxiao, "The supplies you requested have all been loaded onto your ship! The total is 175,456 Berries."
She had also heard the commotion from the previous battle.
Even from this distance, you can feel the atmosphere vibrating, and there are terrifying roars coming from time to time. It's impossible not to hear them!
At the same time, she only learned from Yunxiao's words that the people who had fought earlier were Yunxiao and Garp.
This gave Makino a new understanding of Cloud's strength.
Of course, there's more curiosity than anything else.
He looks like a young kid, yet he managed to cause such a commotion and even spar with Vice Admiral Garp.
The key point is that he doesn't seem to be injured or anything, which is quite remarkable.
Makino knew exactly how much force Vice Admiral Garp used in his attacks.
While they wouldn't be seriously injured, Garp would inevitably cause Luffy and Ace to bump into each other and end up with bruises and swelling when he fought them.
"Thank you very much!"
Yunxiao nodded his thanks, then paid the remaining amount to Makino and thanked her again.
"You're welcome! Well then, I'll get back to work now!"
After taking the money, Makino left.
"Let's go! We can't stay here any longer!"
Yunxiao then spoke to Kuina, and with her on the boat, he had Red Queen start the yacht and head towards the waste terminal.
In the past hour or so, the Red Queen has already figured out the situation within a radius of over 100 kilometers using the miniature flying probes she has sent out.
The location of the waste disposal station is naturally included.
Chapter 124
It is a remote mountaintop more than ten kilometers away from the waste disposal station.
Yunxiao, along with Kuina and Zoro, finally met the great pirate Naguri here.
"Kid, you came here specifically to see me?"
Nag, whose hair and beard were already snow-white and who was smoking a pipe, stared at Yunxiao, who was in the lead, with sharp eyes and asked.
With his Observation Haki, he had already "heard" when Yunxiao and the others were inquiring about him nearby.
Of the three, Yunxiao posed the greatest threat to him.
Kuina and Zoro posed no threat whatsoever.
"Not bad!"
Yunxiao nodded and went straight to the point: "I've heard your legend from Luffy, and I've also found some clues about you in the East Blue! I know you were once a great pirate who challenged the Pirate King Gol D. Roger! So, I want to ask you about the training methods for the three types of Haki!"
"Of course, in return, I can help you complete the construction of your pirate ship faster and make it the most top-tier pirate ship. How about it?"
Naguri built his pirate ship so that he could set sail again, embark on his pirate journey once more, and find his lost companions.
Yunxiao felt that the latter accounted for a larger proportion, and that pirates were just a bit of nostalgia for Naguri!
Finding his lost companions was the old man's truest and most cherished wish.
"Luffy?"
Upon hearing Yunxiao mention Luffy, a smile appeared on Naguri's face.
Then, looking at Yunxiao with some surprise, he asked, "Is there a legend about me on the high seas?"
"Although there aren't many, you can still find some if you're willing to look!"
Yunxiao nodded.
Of course, that's pure nonsense.
If he hadn't read the original story, he wouldn't know anything about Nagri.
As for the great pirate who challenged the Pirate King?
Are such cases rare?
After listening, Nagley remained silent for a while, then puffed on his cigarette.
After a long while, he finally looked up at Yunxiao and the other two and said, "I can agree to your request! However, I hope my pirate ship can be completed in three months, and that's all the time I'll teach!"
He has already wasted too much time and hopes to set off soon to find his lost companions.
This is his obsession, and also what he considers his responsibility.
"Besides, I can't guarantee whether you can learn it! You're in luck, but your two companions are too young. They might have some chance with Observation Haki, but don't even think about Armament Haki for now!"
"As for Conqueror's Haki? That depends on talent. If you have it, you either do! If you don't, you can't force it!"
Even Armament Haki and Observation Haki require talent, let alone Observation Haki.
"no problem!"
Yunxiao smiled and agreed.
Then, instead of rushing to have Nagri teach them, she first gave Nagri's pirate ship a full-body scan, built a virtual data model, and then had Red Queen design the most suitable modification plan.
The renovation plan was designed very quickly.
Yunxiao directly used virtual projection to show Nagri the final appearance and structure of the pirate ship.
"How is it? Is this design and construction acceptable?"
Yunxiao asked with a smile.
"This...this"
Nagley looked at the virtual image with great curiosity: "What exactly is this thing? How can it display images?"
"Don't worry about that! Just tell me if you're satisfied with the ship inside! If you are, we'll start construction!"
Yunxiao raised his hand to interrupt his curiosity and asked again.
"Satisfied! Couldn't be more satisfied!"
Nagri focused his gaze on the image of the pirate ship this time, and after watching it carefully, he nodded repeatedly.
