One Piece: From the Rocks Era to King of the World

Chapter 57 Douglas Barrett



"General, should we launch an attack?"

Douglas said with sweat on his fists.

You know, now in the New World, the Rocks Pirates are very famous.

In addition, this Li Yuan is a cadre of the Rocks Pirates, and he is also a powerful swordsman who defeated the former Navy Admiral Ji Kai.

Their country simply has no way to deal with a strong person of this level.

"No, we can't take the initiative to fire, and we can't anger him. Maybe he has been sailing on the sea for a long time and is here to replenish supplies."

When General Abu Creton saw Li Yuan coming, he did not open fire, so he had a glimmer of hope in his heart that Li Yuan had no ill will towards the kingdom.

The more than 30,000 kingdom troops at the port all looked nervously at Li Yuan who had arrived at the port.

They were afraid that this powerful and vicious pirate would suddenly burst out with terrible power and kill them all.

"Dear Rocks Pirates officer Li Yuan, welcome. Is there anything I can help you with?"

General Abu Clayton walked up and spoke very politely, without any of the dignity and arrogance of a general.

"I'm short of supplies on my ship, so I'm here to replenish them and take a look at what the so-called 'Country of Endless War' actually looks like."

Li Yuan said casually.

At the same time, his eyes kept scanning around, finally settling on Douglas, but quickly moved away.

Before coming, Xia Qi had already investigated Douglas' information, and Li Yuan had also seen his photo, so he recognized him at a glance. He was Barrett's boss.

"Is this the power of a Rocks Pirates cadre? Too scary. Just a glance from him makes me feel in imminent danger and invincible."

Just now, Douglas felt as if someone was rubbing his soul with an ice-cold saber, making his soul tremble!

"Please rest assured, Mr. Beheading Swordsman, we will deliver the supplies you need as quickly as possible."

"We welcome you to visit our kingdom."

General Abu Creton heaved a sigh of relief when he heard Li Yuan's words. As long as they were not here to destroy the country, everything else would be fine.

"I need some imps to do odd jobs on my ship. I heard that your kingdom has quite a few boy scouts. I want to recruit some imps here to serve as my subordinates."

"You, it's you. You should be considered a captain or something like that. I like you. Bring all those little devils under you here so I can have a look."

Li Yuan looked at Douglas and said.

"Douglas, do as His Excellency the Beheading Swordsman said and do it quickly."Nôv(el)B\\jnn

General Abu Clayton glared at Douglas, whose legs were shaking, and scolded him in a low voice.

"Yes, yes, I'll go right away!!"

After being scolded by General Abu Clayton, Douglas finally realized that he was trembling and unable to move after being stared at by Li Yuan just now.

"Mr. Beheading Swordsman, we still have quite a few scouts in our kingdom. Do you want me to call them all over to show you?"

General Abu Creighton said cautiously that this was a good opportunity to curry favor.

Abu Clayton naturally didn't want to let it go. If Li Yuan accepted a large number of scouts as his subordinates, then there would be a connection between him and the kingdom.

"Then call them all out so I can see."

Hearing this, Li Yuan also thought it was a good idea to collect more little ghosts.

If there are talented people with potential, they can be trained. After all, people who are trained by themselves are the most reliable. "Sir, I have brought them all here."

Douglas acted quickly, and in less than five minutes he had gathered all of his scouts over.

Li Yuan took a quick look and saw that there were exactly twenty-six Boy Scouts, and he didn't know which one was Barrett.

The name Barrett was given to him by Douglas after he showed extraordinary potential and strength.

"Code name, yes, it's a code name. Barrett's former code name was 'Number 9', and he was later known as the kingdom's ninth bullet."

Then, Li Yuan looked at the child with the number '9' written on the badge. He had a blank expression but a firm gaze, unlike the other children who were confused and ruthless.

Barrett has just joined the army and has not been betrayed by his companions or his country, so he is still a good boy with a healthy mind.

"Buzz!!!!"

Suddenly, Li Yuan's aura leaked out. It was not the domineering aura of a king, but his murderous intent.

Even if it was just a part of the murderous aura, it made Douglas next to him feel terrified.

General Abu Creighton, who was standing next to Li Yuan, was extremely nervous, fearing that Li Yuan would suddenly get angry.

Fortunately, after waiting for a while, he found that Li Yuan was not angry, but was looking at the twenty-six scouts in front of him.

Although those 26 boy scouts had been on the battlefield, it was a low-level battlefield and they were completely vulnerable in the face of Li Yuan's murderous aura.

Just a hint of murderous intent made the twenty-six scouts feel as if they had fallen into hell. It was so terrifying that they gritted their teeth and fell to the ground one after another. Only the child numbered 9 was still standing with his fists clenched and his tongue bitten to prevent himself from falling.

Although he didn't know what was going on, his innate strong character made him unwilling to fall down like this. No matter what, he didn't want to fall down.

"Very well, what's your name?"

Seeing that only No. 9 persisted out of the twenty-six, Li Yuan showed a satisfied smile on his face.

Even though Barrett had just joined the army, even though he was still very young, his innate strong will could not be faked.

Adding the number 9, Li Yuan was certain that the No. 9 in front of him was undoubtedly the

Barrett in the original book.

"Report, I don't have a name, I only have a number, No. 9!"

Although Barrett didn't know Li Yuan, when he saw his boss Douglas being servile in front of this man, he knew that the man in front of him should not be provoked.

"What's your name?"

Li Yuan turned to look at Douglas and asked deliberately.

"My Lord, my name is Douglas Ryan."

Douglas shuddered. He didn't expect that Li Yuan would target him. If he had known this, he

should have asked for leave and not come to the port today.

"Since your boss is Douglas Lane, from now on, you will be Douglas Barrett."

Li Yuan looked at Barrett with satisfaction and said.

"Soldier No. 9, as the general of the kingdom, I declare that from now on you are no longer a

soldier of the kingdom, but a subordinate of the Rocks Pirates' cadre who beheaded the

swordsman!"

General Abu Creighton saw this and immediately spoke.
