“985,”

“986,”

On the deck of the Golden Meli, Luffy and Zoro were doing squats with heavy weight on their backs. Nami, who was also doing exercises on the side, and...

"Why should I join too?"

Facing Usopp, who was crying, Roman, who was also carrying weights and exercising, raised his eyelids.

"You want to fight me, too?"

"If you beat me, don't listen to me-"

"Forget it, I practiced from the heart..."

········The familiar swallow returns.

“Hahaha~~”

"Nami, why are you laughing at?"

"Sure enough, the proverb about 'friends' is well said: "Nami, who is also exercising, smiled at Usopp, who has cramped legs beside her. "I'm happy when I heard that you are living a worse life than me."

········

"This friend relationship is too realistic."

However, complaining was useless. After completing the training volume specified by Roman, the others still had the energy to talk and laugh, and poor Usopp had no strength to turn over.

“This is different from what I imagined…”

Pirate life should not be a banquet, carnival, storm, battle, etc...

"Sweat more in normal times and less in wartime."

While turning the rudder of the Golden Melis and being distracted from controlling two "paper arms" to drive a merchant ship behind, Roman raised his eyelids.

"Usopp, your physical fitness is only 0.8 Nami level, which I didn't expect."

"Hey hey hey, what is 0.8 Nami level..."

Nami, who just went to take a shower, stopped working. When did she become a unit of physical fitness measurement?

"Because, your physical fitness is the most representative of the average pirate level here."

Roman's answer was serious.

"Otherwise, how about I change it to 0.04 Luffy?"

"Forget it...it's too much of a blow to people."

"But it doesn't matter, your potential should be more than that."

Roman looked at Usopp.

"You should have just not undergone systematic training before, so you seem like this...weak. Now you start exercising and developing your physical potential. I believe you will be able to surpass 1 Nami level soon..."

"Enough, Roman! Don't use me as a standard unit..."

—————

The days of sailing are actually not magnificent or magnificent.

Most of the time, there are endless seas, no wind and waves, and no other ships. In order to prevent Luffy from playing tricks, Roman made detailed exercise plans every day to eliminate their extra energy. However:

"I think we need a pirate flag."

Faced with Luffy's serious proposal, others, including Roman, nodded in agreement.

No matter how many members they have now, they have as many as five! It’s time to show their own banner!

"Clang clang clang~~"

"How about this one I draw?"

········

How to say it, although it can be roughly seen as a skeleton flag, but:

"This guy, you can tell at a glance that there are no art cells."

This is Usopp to be honest.

"No, from a certain point of view, it can also be considered art."

This is Nami with a contemplative look on her face.

"The Pirate Flag is a symbol of deterrence..."

This is the speechless Zoro.

"This is not so much a pirate flag as a kindergarten graffiti."

Roman rubbed his temples. If he really hung this thing, he would make the other party laugh to death without having to fight... No, think about it carefully. Maybe this is actually a strategy for Luffy?

Showing the enemy as weak...

No, no, Roman shook his head.

Luffy shouldn't have any brain cells that can think about these things!

"Forget it, leave it to me for painting."

As the only 'artist' among several people, Usopp took over the brush unscrupulously. However:

It cannot be said that the drawing is not good, but: a long-nosed skull with a slingshot on one side and a leg bone on the other. Even a special star effect was added...

Bang!X2

"You are drawing this entirely by yourself, right?"

Usopp, who was beaten by Luffy and Zoro at the same time, had to draw a 'Straw Hat Pirate Flag' again, which made others look at him with admiration.

“It’s a good drawing.”

"It's hard to imagine that it's the same pattern..."

Comparing it with Luffy’s paintings is simply the difference between a seller’s show and a buyer’s show.

"Hmph, I'm not only very good at painting, but also shooting--it's easy to hit every shot!"

After performing a shot, a small rock slope exposed in the distant sea broke:

"Very good, from now on you will be the 'sniper' and 'painter' on our ship."

Luffy waved his hand and appointed Usopp two positions.

?

"Hello,"

Roman looked up at the paper cranes flying in the sky, one of which flew towards the small stone slope that had just been bombarded by Usopp. After hovering for a few circles:

"There is good news and bad news, you want to hear that?"

??

"Bad news."

Faced with Luffy's choice, Roman nodded.

"You just shot and saw someone resting there. You have hit passersby."

Oh, this...

"What about the good news?"

Luffy and Usopp, who looked Spartan, asked anxiously.

"The good news is that those two people seem to be dead."

—————

"Damn it, I lost a little bit..."

When Roman and the others turned to the past, a swordsman jumped out of the ruins of the stone slope and shouted to "kill people to pay for their lives." As a result, Luffy let out a move...

"Joseph, cheer up!"

After rescuing the other person, he found that he was Zoro's former "comrades" and his fans, Pirate Hunters named Joseph and Johnny. But now one of them is unscathed, the other is pale and the wounds on his stomach are even bleeding. But:

"Is this scurvy?"

It was not that Usopp fired the shells that hurt the opponent, but:

“What is scurvy?”

Facing the questions of Luffy Usopp and Solon trio, Nami had to give them popular science:

"Scurvy is a disease caused by the human body's lack of vitamin C. Long-term intake will increase the brittleness of capillaries, thereby causing skin and submucosal bleeding, which is medically called scurvy. Just...

“Just add this.”

Roman had already brought out a glass of orange juice and gave it to another hunter named Johnny and asked him to feed it to a man named Joseph.
