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

Chapter 173: Chapter 173 Preparing to go to sea



"Yeah!"

The Red Earl nodded and didn't say much. He himself was not a talkative person.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Let's go back and have a party to celebrate Ryder coming to spar with me!!"

Li Yuan said.

Originally, the Red Earl didn't want to stay here. After all, he had already lost, and it would be embarrassing to stay any longer.

But he couldn't resist Li Yuan's insistence, so he followed Li Yuan to his territory and held a banquet to celebrate.

Redfield himself doesn't like crowded, noisy environments.

But banquets are an exception. After all, here, many people are in an excited mood, which makes Redfield, who has the ability to read minds and easily perceive other people's emotions, feel happy.

"Captain, this competition..."

Barrett and others wanted to find out the outcome of the battle while drinking.

Although they had been watching, in the end, Li Yuan and Red Earl both stopped, and neither of them fell.

Even though the Red Earl was at a disadvantage in the end, they were not qualified to judge the outcome of such a battle between powerful men.

"Ryder and I are just sparring this time, there's no winner!"

Li Yuan didn't say anything about winning or losing. It was just a competition after all. He didn't lack the reputation of defeating Reid.

"Ryder, why are you here alone? Come, have a drink!!!"

"We compared swordsmanship before, now let's compare drinking capacity!"

Li Yuan walked up to Redfield with two jars of wine and spoke loudly.

"Come on, drink!!"

The Red Earl didn't say anything, he just opened the jar of wine and started drinking.

"Okay, let's see who can drink better!!"

Li Yuan also picked up the jar and started drinking.

The two of them just sat there and drank, you drank a jar, I drank a jar, and there were younger brothers beside them who kept bringing jars of wine over.

It was already late at night and the entire banquet was stopped. Everyone was drunk and lay on the ground snoring.

Only the servants were left to clean the banquet venue quietly.

During the entire banquet, only Li Yuan and Red Earl had not fallen down.

"Ryder, are you still okay? If not, just tell me!"

Li Yuan didn't know how many jars he had drunk and felt dizzy.

"Who, who said I can't do it? It's you, yes, it's you who can't do it. If you can't do it, then don't try to be stubborn!"

Although the Red Earl was also feeling dizzy at this time and the alcohol was taking effect, and he even saw the wine jar in front of him appear as clones, he could not say that he was incapable. As a man, no one could say that he was incapable.

"You can't do it. I'm the world's greatest swordsman. How can I not do it? Come on!"

Li Yuan staggered and picked up a jar of wine and started drinking again.

"Come on, come on!"

Seeing this, the Red Earl picked up the jar of wine and started drinking.

"vomit!!!"

"Bang!!!"

However, the two men had just drunk half of the wine when the jars in their hands fell to the ground, and they both vomited at the same time.

Maybe he felt better after vomiting, so he lay back on the ground and fell asleep.

The next morning, the morning sun was not hot or glaring enough and just barely shone on Li Yuan's face.

He simply frowned, raised his arms to block the sunlight, and continued to sleep.

At noon, under the scorching sun, he felt a little hot and thirsty, and finally woke up from his deep sleep.

"Hahahaha, Ryder, you were the first to fall down yesterday!"

He sat up, opened his sleepy eyes, and saw that the Red Earl lying in front of him had also woken up. Suddenly, Li Yuan burst into laughter.

"How is that possible? I clearly remember that you were the first one to drop the jar of wine yesterday because you couldn't hold it steady. Then you vomited and fell down. I hadn't fallen down at that time!"

Naturally, Earl Red was dissatisfied with what Li Yuan said.

"You were drunk and remembered it wrongly. It was you who couldn't help vomiting first,

and then you lay back and fell asleep."

"Don't talk nonsense, it was obviously you who fell down first."

"You were the one who fell asleep first."

"It's obviously you."

Li Yuan and Red Earl had just woken up and were arguing about who fell down first last night. "Forget it. I won't argue with you. I wasn't the one who fell first anyway."

"I'm leaving now. I'll come and spar with you later!"

The Red Earl felt that he could not win the argument with this bastard, so he simply stood up, picked up his umbrella sword and left.

He likes to be alone and doesn't stay in the same place for long.

"Hahaha, Reid, you must remember what you said. I am also looking forward to sparring with you again next time."

Li Yuan smiled and said that the Red Earl was very powerful and had great potential, and he also wanted to compete with the more powerful Red Earl.

As he became stronger, there were fewer and fewer people who could compete with him. The feeling of having strength but nowhere to use it became suffocating after a long time.

Marine Headquarters, Marineford:

Today, many high-ranking naval officers returned to Marinford, not because of a major

enemy attack.

It was because the Navy Admiral Zephyr Blackarm was getting married, although the wedding was held in a low-key manner and only some relatives and friends were invited.

But as an admiral of the navy, how low-key can he be?

As long as the senior navy officials do not have urgent matters, they will choose to come back

to attend Zephyr's wedding. "Hahaha, Zephyr, congratulations, I hope you can give birth to a good son soon, as good as my son Dragon!"

Karp came over laughing, holding a big red envelope in his hand. The handwriting on it was crooked, and it was obviously Karp's own handwriting.

"Zefa, congratulations, I wish you a happy marriage and a baby soon!"

"Zefa, happy wedding, I also wish you a happy marriage and a happy life!"

Vice Admiral Zhan Guo and Lieutenant General Tsuru also came over.

"Hahahaha, thank you very much, please take a seat."

Zefa's face was filled with a happy smile, and he was very happy to receive the blessings of so

many colleagues.

Not only many high-ranking naval officers, but even Marshal Kong came to serve as Zefa's

witness.

A happy wedding was held in Marinford.

After sobering up, Li Yuan returned to his room and looked at the latest information.

The major pirate groups in the New World have not made any big moves. They are all

recuperating and expanding the size of their pirate groups.

"Oh? Admiral Zephyr is getting married!"

"What a pity! It's a tragedy!"

Seeing this piece of information, Li Yuan was somewhat surprised and also somewhat

emotional.

"Since there's nothing to do in the New World, let's go around the world and collect all those

things."

Li Yuan touched his chin and said, there are many treasures in the four seas, he didn't have time to get them before, but now he has time to go and take a look.

Li Yuan did what he said and immediately asked his men to prepare the ships and various

things.

"Yadina, stop busying yourself with these things. Come on, your husband will take you on a trip."

Li Yuan came to the office in the general's mansion, looked at Yadina who was still busy, put his arm around her slender waist and spoke softly.

"Husband, where are we going to travel?"

Hearing Li Yuan's words, Yadina happily sat on Li Yuan's thighs, blinking her eyes and

looking at Li Yuan happily.

"We're going to play in the Four Seas this time."

Li Yuan put his arms around the back of Yadina's head and gave her a passionate French kiss.

"Ugh!!"

Yadina's face was full of youth, her cheeks were rosy, and she was still passionate.

"Mom and Dad, are you kissing? Faraday wants one too!"

However, just as the two were kissing passionately, a childish voice sounded.

"ah!!!"

Frightened, Yadina quickly got off Li Yuan's lap and glared at Li Yuan shyly.

Yadina has never kissed in front of her children, and she doesn't want to teach her children

bad things.

"Does Faraday want to travel with his parents?"

Compared to Yadina's shyness, Li Yuan picked up Faraday who ran over without changing his

expression, touched his little head and said.

"think!!"

Faraday said obediently.

"Well, go call back all the brothers and sisters and tell them we are going on a trip."

Li Yuan smiled.

"Okay, Dad."

After hearing Li Yuan's words, Faraday ran out happily.

At the edge of the Wuji Pirates' sea area, a modified ship the size of a vice admiral sailed

silently out of the sea area.

The ship was remodeled by several shipbuilders, inlaid with seastone and had its power

system specially modified.

Although it is not yet able to sail on its own in the doldrums, it can use artificial power to

propel the ship forward.

Moreover, the design uses a small gear to drive a large gear, so the boat can be easily moved quickly without exerting too much force.

So Li Yuan deployed 500 laborers on this ship in case of emergency.

At the same time, Li Yuan also specially asked Barrett and Kalu to follow him out.

Li Yuan was lying on a sun lounger wearing beach pants, enjoying the sunshine comfortably.

Yadina was beside him, feeding him a grape.

Esdeath and the little ones were playing excitedly on the deck, and they were enjoying this

family happiness.

"Li Yuan, Luowang's intelligence network has almost reached a bottleneck in the New World.

Taking this opportunity, I want to expand Luowang's intelligence network to the four seas." At this time, Xia Qi also came over wearing a sexy purple bikini.

Her flawless skin and golden-proportion figure were fully displayed under the bikini with

very little fabric.

Luowang is the name of the intelligence network organization headed by Xia Qi, which implies a dragnet that is all-pervasive.

"If you want to develop it, then go ahead. Sooner or later, we will expand our intelligence

network to all corners of the world anyway."

Li Yuan looked at Xia Qi's perfect figure and smiled.

"If that's the case, it would require a huge amount of money."

Xia Qi peeled a grape and put it into Li Yuan's mouth and said hesitantly.

She is now clear about the funds of the Wuji Pirates, even though they have plundered two

member countries, occupied many islands, and cooperated with the Shipping King in

business.

However, those territories were occupied for a very short time, and many places were not developed into businesses.
