Chapter 75 I grew up listening to your stories
In addition to Vice Admiral Tsuru, there was another beautiful lady in the team who was particularly eye-catching. She had black hair, a beauty spot at the corner of her mouth, a peach-colored top, a long sword slung over her waist, and a spider tattooed on her slender and toned thigh.
Later, she was a candidate for the general, Lieutenant General Gion, codenamed Momosagi, but it is unclear what her current rank is.
Zhang Da was also very sensible and stopped by the roadside to make way for the navy. Such a large force seemed to be aimed at the flamingo, but according to the original trajectory, Vice Admiral He's action was probably in vain.
When passing by Zhang Daye and the others, Vice Admiral Tsuru's gaze lingered on Altria and Rui Mengmeng for a few more seconds. What his eyes revealed was probably... admiration?
Is this grandma trying to poach people?
Perhaps because he had a mission to complete, Vice Admiral Tsuru did not say anything and did not stay for long.
Zhang Da also heard about the follow-up of this incident in the tavern. Ignoring the part where a bunch of drunks were bragging and the obviously unreliable part, the facts he pieced together were roughly like this:
Doflamingo and a group of miscellaneous soldiers were surrounded by Vice Admiral Tsuru's troops. The two sides engaged in an almost one-sided battle, and Doflamingo's miscellaneous soldiers were quickly wiped out.
Doflamingo himself suddenly disappeared without a trace, and none of the Don Quixote family's cadres showed up from beginning to end.
In other words, the one who was destroyed was most likely the clone created by Doflamingo using the ability of the String-String Fruit. After sacrificing a group of his subordinates to delay enough time, he and the cadres had already escaped.
This guy should be working hard to become one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea now. If I remember correctly, he robbed Tenjojin and threatened the World Government to get the position of Seven Warlords of the Sea?
By the way, did Doflamingo come here just for this?
In order to transport the gold from heaven to the holy land of Mary Geoise, it is necessary to use the bubble elevator to rise to an altitude of ten thousand meters.
And Doflamingo can fly. If he just snatches the thing and runs away from an altitude of several thousand meters, I'm afraid no one can stop him, right?
Of course, it is also possible that they set an ambush and robbed the gold from the sky before it was sent to the bubble elevator. After all, it would be difficult for him to carry so much money by himself.
I don’t know how much gold there is in heaven, but it is enough for all the celestial dragons to squander.
In short, after Vice Admiral Tsuru's visit, Doflamingo should have run away. He seemed unwilling to have a head-on confrontation with Vice Admiral Tsuru.
At noon the next day after this incident, Vice Admiral Tsuru came to the tavern with a blonde female marine.
Although she was not wearing a naval uniform, many guests in the tavern recognized the famous vice admiral and began to talk about her after she walked past them.
At this time, Vice Admiral He was wearing a lavender shirt, black cropped pants, and ordinary women's leather shoes. He walked straight to the bar and stopped.
The blonde female marine stood obediently behind her.
Are they really here to poach my friends? Zhang Da also hurriedly greeted them, "What would you two like to drink?"
Vice Admiral Tsuru had a kind smile on her face, looking like an ordinary old lady next door. She looked at the teapot in front of Altria and said, "Give me a cup of tea if you can."
Zhang Da also laughed and said, "You are the first person to come to the tavern and ask for tea."
Lieutenant General He asked with a smile: "Is it inconvenient?"
"It's convenient, of course it's convenient. Since you've asked for it, you should at least give me some face, right?" Zhang Da also said a few words to Altria.
Altria nodded, took out a teacup, poured two cups of tea and placed them in front of General Tsuru and the others, and also took out a plate of snacks and set them aside.
"Thank you." Lieutenant General He picked up the teacup and blew on it. "It seems that the young boss knows me?"
"Of course I know you. I saw you on the street yesterday, the famous Vice Admiral Crane." Zhang Daye was influenced by the guests in the tavern for a long time, and he could speak politely. "I grew up listening to your stories."
"Really?" Vice Admiral Crane took a sip of tea and asked, "So what stories of mine have you heard?"
"Uh..." Zhang Da was stuck. I just said it casually. I only know that you are very powerful, but Oda didn't tell me what deeds you have done!
Looking at Vice Admiral He's teasing eyes and the female Marine behind her who was covering her mouth and laughing, Zhang Da felt a little embarrassed.
"You're so young, and you're already learning to be smooth-talking." Lieutenant General He's tone sounded as if he was teaching a junior.
"Ha, ha, ha." Zhang Da also laughed awkwardly, "Anyway, I just know that you are a very powerful navy officer. May I ask why you came here this time ?"
"Then I'll be frank. I want to invite you to join the navy." In addition to dealing with various incidents caused by Doflamingo, Tsurunaka also went to the navy of the Sabaody Archipelago to ask about the situation of Zhang Tatsuya and others.
Although she didn't even know Zhang Daye's name, the characteristics of the group were too obvious. Not to mention the two beauties, especially the cat with rich expressions, which left a deep impression on the navy. The leader Zhang Daye was actually the least visible one.
Through the local navy, Vice Admiral Tsuru easily learned the information about this tavern:
A boy who was shipwrecked and drifted here, a clever cat, a guard of unknown origin but powerful and elegant, and a waitress who looks ordinary.
Vice Admiral Tsuru did not delve too deeply into their origins, but instead valued their qualities and what they had done: they had captured several bounty hunters, and a few days ago they had even captured an entire pirate group. However, they did not seem to rely on these to make a living, but were just lucky enough to have such opportunities. They did not speak or act in a arrogant and vulgar manner like most bounty hunters, and would actively step aside to make way when they saw the navy carrying out a mission.
From Vice Admiral Tsuru's perspective, the young man in front of him and the two "employees" in the tavern are not bad people. This is much more important than their origins.
In addition, Vice Admiral Tsuru personally invited her because he valued Altria's strength.
"Join the navy?" Zhang Da was also thinking about how to reject her tactfully. After all, he had a pretty good impression of Vice Admiral He.
Joining the Navy means you have to fight for your life when someone gives you an order, and the person issuing the order may be very unreliable.
"Why do you want to join the navy?" Zhang Da asked after thinking for a while.
As soon as he opened his mouth, Lieutenant General He felt that this trip might not be so smooth.
But this is normal. If they agreed as soon as she mentioned it, then they would have joined the navy when they exchanged the bounty. After all, there were routine inquiries.
Of course, Vice Admiral He had no idea how perfunctory the routine inquiries of the major in charge of exchanging the bounty were.
