Chapter 75

On the deck, several chore boys crawled out of the smoke, their faces red to purple.

"Phew, phew, phew, phew~ finally able to breathe fresh air!"

"Yeah! Major Smoker's ability is too scary! Just now I once thought I would be suffocated to death."

Chore Boy A nodded in agreement: "This move is too cruel. Pirates who run into Major Smoker are going to be unlucky!"

"Cruel?"

Karl, standing behind Chore Boy A, frowned slightly. How could a Navy officer think dealing with pirates this way was cruel?

The kid's thinking was problematic!

Chore Boy A and B looked back and swallowed a mouthful of saliva: "Re, Rear Admiral Karl."

Karl looked at them and said coldly: "Nelson, notify all Navy soldiers to assemble. I have something to say!"

Nelson behind him shouted: "Yes, sir!"

Ten minutes later, Karl sat on a bench, with Smoker and Ain standing on his left and right, Move Move Like bodyguards.

Nelson: It was a mistake after all.

"Just now, when Major Smoker was experimenting with his ability, I actually heard someone say that dealing with pirates this way is too cruel? This is the biggest joke I've heard in my life!"

"You, let me ask you, what is a pirate?"

The artilleryman pointed at by Karl shivered and said tremblingly: "Evildoers, killing, arson, robbery, doing all kinds of evil."

"Exactly, this is a pirate. So no matter what method we use to treat pirates, it's not too much."

"Do you know how I promoted from a chore boy to a branch Captain before I got the Devil Fruit?"

The soldiers below shook their heads. Even Ain and Smoker were full of interest. They really didn't know much about Karl's past.

"There is only one answer: a lot of military merit! How does military merit come? Killing pirates!"

"But do you know how I deal with pirates?"

The Navy soldiers looked at each other and tentatively said: "Use a gun?"

"Use a sword?" "Fart, Rear Admiral Karl's physical skills are so strong, it must be his fists!"

Karl denied them one by one and said loudly: "What you said makes sense, but this is just a method. To really deal with pirates, we must fight Move Move Like pirates!"

"If you can sneak attack from behind, don't engage head-on!"

"If you can deceive and plot, there's no need to be open and honest!"

"If you can attack in a group, never fight alone!"

"If you have a gun, shoot; never use cold weapons!"

"If you can use cold weapons, don't fight hand-to-hand!"

"If killing is allowed, don't just knock them out or maim them!"

"If you can knock them out or maim them, don't just cause serious injury!"

"If you can cause serious injury, don't just cause minor injury!"

Of course, what Karl said only applied to ordinary pirates. At least the third point didn't apply much to real powerhouses.

However, they were all ordinary Navy soldiers with mediocre strength. If they could remember what Karl said, it would be enough for them to deal with most small-fry pirate crews.

"In short, you must use any means necessary, focus only on results, and attack and destroy the enemy without regard for consequences, making them 'come standing, leave carried!'"

"Because pitying the enemy will surely make you bleed!"

Hearing these words, Ain nodded thoughtfully, while Smoker discovered a new world again, the confusion in his heart instantly dispelled.

Right, why talk about benevolence and morality when dealing with pirates? No need, dead pirates are good pirates!

"The Rear Admiral is right!" "Exactly, pirates treat us this way, why can't we treat pirates this way?"

The Navy soldiers seemed to have had some shackles opened, wishing they could kill a few pirates immediately to help the mood.

At this time, they also recalled the scenes of Karl dealing with pirates. It couldn't be called cruel anymore; it was simply brutal.

Meeting Rear Admiral Karl, they were either cut in half or missing limbs. Those missing limbs were still ability users; otherwise, just being alive was a luxury.

Seeing this, Karl nodded with gratification. His words should have had some effect.

"Remember what I said today. You are Navy officers. Kindness and mercy are never reserved for pirates! Do you understand!"

"Understood!"

"Good, dismissed!"

The Navy soldiers left in groups or individually, but the discussion could not subside for a long time.

"Well said, Karl. Dealing with pirates should be done this way! I find you really are more and more to my taste, hahaha!"

Smoker patted Karl on the shoulder excitedly, wishing he could become sworn brothers with him on the spot.

"Stop patting! Go develop your ability! Otherwise, you'll never beat me!"

Smoker sneered and quickly walked to a deserted place to start experimenting with the smoke strangulation formation he had just developed.

"Ain, I have something to tell you."

Ain looked at Karl, her expression calm, waiting for his follow-up.

"After sending Hancock back to Amazon Lily, we will sail directly to Impel Down. I need to escort a transport ship to the New World."

"At that time, you will be responsible for sailing the warship back to Marineford and waiting for me to return."

Ain frowned slightly: "I want to go with you!"

"I'm not discussing this with you; I'm notifying you. It's only a day or two. You can just rest. Isn't resting good?"

Ain bit her lower lip and said unwillingly: "But, I..."

Compared to resting, I want to be with you more! Just Move Move Like Sister Gion said, feelings need to be cultivated slowly.

These days, Hancock had been guarding against her strictly, and she hadn't had a chance to say a few words to Karl.

Clearly, Hancock would get off the ship today and wouldn't see her for a long time. Such a good opportunity, how could she...

But under Karl's stern gaze, she retreated and could only agree.

In the lounge.

"I heard it was quite lively outside just now. Did something happen?"

Karl smiled slightly, kissed Hancock on the face, and said: "Nothing, just some internal Navy business."

After being intimate with Hancock for a while,

"Ding~ Congratulations to the host for accumulating 1000 times of paid flirting, obtaining achievement reward: [Heart Arsonist]"

[Heart Arsonist]: Every time you gain the affection of a female, stamina +0.005%, stamina recovery speed +0.001%,

"Due to the massive amount of data, the system is collecting..."

Karl: ...

"Statistics complete, current bonus—Stamina: +23.726%, Stamina recovery speed: +47.452%"

Looking at this bonus, Karl was completely silent. 47,452 women's affection—good guy, was I really such a scumbag?

Impossible! Even if I really had the heart, my body couldn't keep up!

Even if I really had indestructible kidneys, there wouldn't be enough time!

Wait, could it be because I was rated as the world's most handsome man by the newspaper? Just Move Move Like the giegies before rebirth, having a few hundred million fans is normal.

Pfft! If the entertainment industry in the One Piece world wasn't so underdeveloped, Karl would have wanted to practice for a year and debut!

"My dear, what's wrong with you?"

Karl smiled very forcedly: "No, nothing."

The next day, Amazon Lily.

"Everyone, look, is that Rear Admiral Karl's warship?"

"Yes, that's it! Great! Snake Princess is coming back!"

The female warriors guarding the port of Amazon Lily told each other and waited excitedly on the spot, waiting for the warship to approach.

"It seems your subjects have been waiting for a long time!"

Hancock held Karl's hand reluctantly, looking at Amazon Lily getting closer and closer outside the window, her face full of sorrow.

Although she had been mentally prepared, when this moment arrived, she was still reluctant.

"My dear, can you stay one more day? I, I am ready."

Looking at Hancock's blushing face, the corners of Karl's mouth rose slightly: "Hmm, then let's stay one more night."

Night, bedroom.

Karl looked at the moving Hancock in front of him and couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva.

Black hair Move Move Like lacquer, skin Move Move Like congealed fat, curvy, and charming.

"My dear... Ying~"

Everything is in silence (hidden content, please pay to unlock)...

The next day, Karl opened his eyes, yawned, and suddenly felt his body a bit weak, so he quickly cast a Holy Light bullet on himself and Hancock, who was still sleeping.

Regarding last night, uh, Karl could only say the bed was big and soft, but the leakage was quite serious. Fortunately, Karl was very good at clearing pipes.

"Hmm~ My dear, you're awake..."

Hancock naturally curled up in Karl's arms, pressing her ear against Karl's chest, feeling his powerful heartbeat.

The two hugged each other, whispering sweet nothings until the Den Den Mushi rang.

"Brrr, brrr, brrr~"

Karl looked at Hancock, took a deep breath, and hung up the phone.

"Let's do it a hundred million more times!"

An hour later, Karl put on his clothes, draped his justice cloak, kissed Hancock on the forehead as she fell back asleep, and turned to leave.

He stopped suddenly when he reached the door, turned to look at Hancock's direction, and said gently: "I will come to see you often..."

Hancock, asleep, seemed to hear this sentence and murmured in her sleep: "I'll wait for you..."

Amazon Lily port.

"Tsk tsk tsk~ You hid it really deep! If Ain hadn't told me, I really wouldn't have known you had a thing with the world's most beautiful woman!"

Karl glanced at the gossiping Smoker angrily: "So what? You're 27 and haven't even touched a girl's hand?"

Smoker's tone stalled, his face flushed red: "You fart, doesn't my mom's hand count!"

Karl looked at Smoker contemptuously and said: "Tsk tsk tsk~ Virgin!"

"What! Don't you dare slander me!"

Karl couldn't be bothered with Smoker and said directly to Nelson: "Set sail, go to Impel Down!"
