The True Path of Pirates

"Um..." Ryden slowly opened his eyes, then blinked hard, and his originally blurry vision slowly became clear.The snow-white walls, soft bedding, hurried footsteps and the strong smell of disinfectant... made Ruiden conclude that he was in the hospital, and it seemed that he had saved his life. "Warrant Officer Ryden? Warrant Officer Ryden is awake! Go and notify the Major!" "Yes!" The loud call of the medical staff broke the tranquility of the hospital, which made Ryden couldn't help but frown.The severe pain seemed to be awakened by the cry, which made Ruiden frown deeper.Ruiden tried hard to recall the last memory, and his thoughts slowly flowed back like a river.At the last moment of the battle with Elemi, Ryden finally understood Koushiro's words.The violence of the mad sword and the strength of the thunder made Ryden embark on the path of pursuing power, so that he could cut through steel, but he completely ignored the agility and sharp sword moves possessed by ordinary swordsmen.Just like the names of himself and Jing Lei, what Redon lacks is the speed of lightning. If he can use the heavy Jing Lei like a light blade, then he will truly step into the door of a swordsman. "This is the so-called 'can only be understood, not expressed'. Master..." Ruiden's thoughts have been completely immersed in the practice of swordsmanship. If he hadn't been unable to move at this time, Ruiden would have wanted to get out of bed immediately. Practice the sword moves that you suddenly realized before. "Brother Ryden! You're awake!" The voice of the hound came from outside the house. Ryden turned his head with difficulty, just in time to see the hound covered in bandages walking towards him. "Yes, Major Hound. Elemi..." "Hey, don't ask so many questions yet, hygienist! Give Warrant Officer Ryden an injection." "Yes!" Before Ryden could ask aloud, a thick The needle has been inserted into his arm, and the cold liquid quickly spreads throughout the body with the flow of blood, and the pain all over the body quickly subsides. "Major, there are sedatives in this medicine. Warrant Officer Redon should fall asleep soon. If you have anything to say, please tell me quickly." "Yes, I understand. You can go down first." "Yes." The hunting dog sat on Redon. Next to him, it was easier for Ryden to see him, and then the two looked at each other, and the disappointment slowly spread from the hound's eyes to Ryden's eyes. "Elemi, you didn't catch it, right?" "Well, he was rescued by people in his pirate group." "Your injury..." "Hey, let's not mention it. It's better to retire in advance." The hunting dog's The left arm was fully bandaged, but it was obviously shorter than the right arm, and the entire left arm was missing. "The bobcat was also seriously injured, and now it has turned into a one-eyed cat, haha! The mouse is quite decent, and the report he gave to the headquarters is reasonable." Ruiden listened quietly, with mixed feelings in his heart. He was thinking about something, and then a faint feeling of sleepiness came over him, which made Ruiden's restless and thinking mind feel a little relaxed. "Oh, by the way. The headquarters will send troops to commend you later. You should be able to follow them back to the headquarters by then. Let's talk about these things after you recover. You can rest first." "Well, thank you, Major Hound." ." The hound didn't say anything and just waved his hand casually. The word "justice" behind the hound slowly became blurry in Ruiden's eyes, and he fell asleep. ...Five days later.The sun shone all over the G16 branch, and the huge blue seagull logo on the wall became clearer.The navy soldiers gathered neatly in the square, their expressions solemn and solemn as never before.The three hunting dogs stood at the front of the team, looking at the port from a distance.Ruiden, who had just been able to get out of bed, also stood behind the three of them, his eyes full of anticipation. "Here it comes!" The hunting dog couldn't help but groan, standing up straighter.Even the mouse, who always had a playful smile, quickly stood up, his body even trembling due to excessive tension. "Is this the large warship of the Navy Headquarters? It's really scary..." "Yes, it can accommodate 800, no, more than 1000 people!" "I wonder which Lieutenant General is taking the lead." "Is it possible? Could it be Lieutenant General Sakaski?" "It could also be Lieutenant General Porusalino and Lieutenant General Kuzan." "No, no, Lieutenant General Karp is the best..." The navy soldiers were attracted by the huge warships of the headquarters. His posture was shocked, and he began to discuss in a low voice unconsciously. "Everyone stands at attention! Salute!" The hunting dog's loud command instantly overwhelmed the discussion of the navy soldiers, and the whole square suddenly became quiet. The navy soldiers saluted one after another, their expressions returned to solemnity, but the excitement was still hidden in their eyes.Ruiden was still injured and could only stand with the support of Thunder, but he still tried his best to stand up straight and look into the distance.The appearance of the headquarters warship became clearer and clearer, and a huge "Crane" character on the sail soon appeared in front of everyone. "It's actually Lieutenant General He. Did the Navy Chief of Staff rush to the East China Sea just for a trivial matter like commending the branch? It seems that something is fishy..." Ruiden couldn't help but feel suspicious in his heart.According to Ruiden's opinion, it would be most reasonable to send Garp in this situation, not only because of Garp's background in the East China Sea, but also because of Garp's carefree character, he is the only one to do such a small thing.Or it might be more reasonable to send Lieutenant Generals such as Flying Squirrel, Huoshaoshan, and Strobel to participate in the "O'Hara Demon Slaying Order". Considering Crane's status and importance in the headquarters, this is indeed a bit strange. .Hound Dog's face was also a little unnatural. This time the headquarters' instructions were confidential and did not reveal which lieutenant general it was. He did not expect that the chief of staff would come in person.A huge warship docked at the port, and a floating ladder was set up from the warship.A slender female figure walked slowly, accompanied by two people behind her. "Majors Hound Dog, Lynx, and Mouse of the Navy G16 branch, together with all the soldiers of the branch, salute Lieutenant General He! Please give instructions to Lieutenant General He!" "Well, you are very energetic, let's finish the salute." "Yes!" Ruiden could see clearly at this time. Lieutenant General He's appearance: Lieutenant General He was only 56 years old at this time, with a strong and tall figure, even slightly taller than T. Penn, who was two meters tall behind him.The whole person's condition is far less twilight than in later animations. Although his face has been weathered by years, he can still see the charm of his youth.What is even more commendable is her eyes, which are majestic and full of wisdom, as if she can see through everything, making people dare not look directly at her easily. T. Penn and a young female officer stood behind Lieutenant General He. Ruiden turned his attention to him. They hadn't seen him in 5 years. T. Penn's "zombie" face had not changed much, except that his hair had grown a little longer. tPenn also noticed Ruiden and just nodded slightly, his eyes full of relief.The hunting dog respectfully walked towards Lieutenant General He, and at the same time raised the loudspeaker phone bug in his hand. The female officer behind Lieutenant General He stepped forward to check, and after making sure there was no problem, handed the phone bug to He.Ruiden also cheered up at this time. He vaguely felt that General He's next words would cause earth-shaking changes in the future of himself and even the entire G16 branch.
