Chapter 751: About to Meet! The Man Who Once Clashed with the Pirate King! [Subscribe]

Time flew by in a blink.

Day and night took turns.

In the blink of an eye,

another two days had passed.

Two days had already gone by since Colonel Ta Li personally led three to five hundred Marine elites to Windmill Village and arrested that band of mountain bandits.

Ta Li and the others had left two days ago.

Right after arriving at Windmill Village, following Lu En's instructions to head to Trash Mountain and arresting that band of over eight hundred mountain bandits, they had set sail without a moment's rest and left Windmill Village.

They didn't linger long,

nor dared to linger long—Ta Li could certainly tell.

Lu En didn't want their presence to disrupt the original customs and appearance of Windmill Village~.

Therefore.

After arresting that band of mountain bandits,

Ta Li immediately ordered the warship to set sail, escorting all eight hundred-plus mountain bandits to the prison of the Marine branch he was in charge of for confinement.

After all this was done,

another two days had already passed.

During these two days, Windmill Village returned to its usual tranquility, harmony, and peace.

Since Ace, Little Lufei, and the others had been rescued, Dadan and the others had also returned to the main base of the Corbo Mountain Range.

All in all.

Everything returned to its original starting point.

The only difference was…

That band of mountain bandits on Trash Mountain had vanished.

Because of this.

The villages surrounding Trash Mountain could finally set aside their tense mood, no longer having to worry about being persecuted by that band of mountain bandits from Trash Mountain.

Apart from the above matters, during these two days, Lu En's relationship with Ace, Little Lufei, Sabo, and the others had also grown closer.

Especially Little Lufei…

He had already completely treated Lu En as his own big brother.

He even wished he could follow at Lu En's heels all day long.

Just like a little shadow.

During this period, Lu En gradually began teaching Ace, Little Lufei, and Sabo to cultivate. Although he couldn't teach them powers like the Marine Six Styles and Haki,

with his devilish training methods, he could still improve the three's strength somewhat.

With Ace and the others' physiques, it wasn't yet enough to support them cultivating the Marine Six Styles and Haki.

Precisely because of this.

Lu En didn't let them rashly come into contact with these powers ahead of time, lest it leave irreversible hidden injuries and hidden dangers on their bodies—that would be more loss than gain.

One must know.

Not everyone possessed a physique as monstrous as Lu En's.

Every time Lu En finished training, his own physique would experience recovery and improvement.

This point, naturally, was not something Little Lufei, Ace, and the others could be compared to.

While Lu En taught Ace, Little Lufei, and the others to train, he himself didn't waste too much time, entering his usual boring devilish training day after day.

Although such days were ordinary and plain, they let Lu En rarely experience the warmth of being home, making his body and mind very much at peace.

At the same time.

He also didn't spend all of this period on his own training.

At the very least…

He would contact Marine Headquarters from time to time.

To inquire about the movements and news of the Red-Haired Pirates.

Regarding the Red-Haired Pirates, Lu En had always kept them close to his heart.

Unfortunately,

the Red-Haired Pirates' movements were very secretive.

Even Marine Headquarters hadn't found out much news about the Red-Haired Pirates' movements.

Only one thing was known.

And that was…

the Red-Haired Pirates hadn't left the East Blue.

This alone was enough to make Lu En be on his full guard.

He was very clear.

The Red-Haired Pirates would sooner or later come to Windmill Village.

Or rather.

Windmill Village was originally the Red-Haired's primary target location!

"I heard some time ago…"

"The Red-Haired Pirates appeared at Luo Ge Town."

"I don't know if it's true or false."

"But, it shouldn't be without basis, right?"

Lu En slightly narrowed his eyes, lost in thought.

After several days of cultivation, his strength had increased somewhat.

But the improvement wasn't great.

Still…

Compared to his last encounter with Doflamingo, his power had undoubtedly grown much stronger.

If he were to face Doflamingo again right now,

he was confident.

He could utterly crush and capture Doflamingo!

Even if Doflamingo awakened his Devil Fruit again, Lu En had full confidence he could defeat him.

"I wonder when Grandpa will return to Windmill Village."

Lu En's thoughts drifted.

The moment he learned the Red-Haired Pirates had appeared in the East Sea,

Captain Kapu had immediately departed from Marineford, setting course for the East Sea's Windmill Village to ensure the Red-Haired Pirates wouldn't cause trouble there.

Moreover,

Captain Kapu chose to return to the East Sea because he feared Lu En might encounter the Red-Haired Pirates and face a life-or-death crisis.

This, of course, was not what Captain Kapu wanted to see.

But it might still take some time before Captain Kapu actually arrived in the East Sea.

Even with the Marine Corps' unique technology allowing warships to cross the Calm Belt, it wouldn't be possible to reach the East Sea in just a short while.

"According to the last message Grandpa sent,"

"he still needs about a week to arrive safely at Windmill Village."

Lu En's eyes flickered.

Within seven days…

Hopefully the Red-Haired Pirates won't reach Windmill Village.

He was looking forward to it.

He wanted the Red-Haired Pirates to arrive at Windmill Village only after Captain Kapu returned.

When the two sides met, the scene would surely be very interesting!

Red-Haired was strong, that was true.

But Captain Kapu was no weakling.
