maritime.
The ship with the ghost-hand pirate flag and full sails sailed on the sea.
In the cabin on the top floor of the ship, Ross was lying there alone, holding his hands on the thickened and reinforced floor, doing the most basic push-ups while sweating.
On his shoulders, he carried two huge dumbbells made of steel. This weight was enough for him to exercise at the moment.
"Nine hundred and ninety-three, nine hundred and ninety-four..."
Ross kept pushing up his body, and the muscles in his arms were completely tightened. The power contained in the torso, which seemed to be no different from ordinary people, was enough to suppress a big pirate with a bounty of 50 million.
"Nine hundred and ninety-nine, one thousand!"
Counting silently in my heart.
When the number reached one thousand, Rhodes finally stopped, put down the weight on his shoulders, and turned over to lie on the floor, panting continuously.
Sweat continued to flow from his body, soaking the floor.
Boom, boom, boom!
There was a knock on the door outside.
Ross was lying there, not bothering to get up and open the door, and said lazily:
"Come in."
"The lemon tea you need."
Robin came in with a plate and a tea cup on it. When he saw Ross lying there without any appearance, he didn't show any surprise. Instead, he tilted his head and smiled, and put the plate on the table next to him. .
Ross lay there for a few more seconds, then pushed himself up, took the cup from the table, and drank a gulp.
"Where are you now?"
"According to your calculations yesterday, captain, we should have reached the waters of the Kingdom of Flowers." Robin reported softly.
Although she was not very proficient in navigation, but when Ross deliberately asked her to learn a little bit so that she could take command when she was away, she learned quickly and was more than enough to serve as a navigator on an ordinary ship.
certainly.
Whether it is Rhodes or Robin, today's navigation technology is not enough to sail the Grand Line. After all, the weather on the Grand Line is really weird and unpredictable.
It's not like Rhodes wasted his talent and proficiency on life-related talents such as sailing, not to mention that he was often too lazy to measure the wind direction on the charts himself.
This will waste too much practice time.
So no matter what, a professional navigator is still needed on the ship. Unfortunately, this is the West Sea. If it were the East China Sea, Ross wouldn't mind kidnapping the lolita version of Nami.
"Have you arrived at the Kingdom of Flowers?"
Ross gradually calmed down the feeling of weakness and fatigue in his body. After hearing Robin's report, he put down his cup and said, "If the information is correct, we should be able to intercept the White Bear Sea with a bounty of 45 million Baileys in the Kingdom of Flowers. Thieves."
Robin nodded and said: "There should be no problem with intelligence, but this flower country... is not a friendly country."
"I know."
Ross smiled.
The Country of Flowers controls a huge official pirate force, and the one he knows best is the Babao Navy. The leader is the cone-headed green pepper, who once sailed the great sea route and had a bounty of up to 500 million beli. , and later his head was flattened by Garp's fist, and his strength was greatly damaged.
"The strongest forces in the Kingdom of Flowers are all on the Grand Line. There are some reserve guys on the West Sea side, except for the leader Qingjiao who may be retiring here, but it is not so easy to collide head-on."
"The captain seems to know the flower country very well."
Robin looked at Ross strangely. She also planned to report to Ross the information she knew about the Kingdom of Flowers.
"Only part of it."
Ross shrugged and said: "In addition to the White Bear Pirates, we should also try our best to get the keel and main materials of the new ship in the Country of Flowers, and then go directly to the Country of Craftsmen to find shipwrights to build new ships, otherwise we have to run away again. Go far away to get materials.”
Robin stood aside and listened quietly, not interfering with Ross's decision.
Ross was not the strongest person she had ever seen, but he was the most calm and confident person she had ever seen.
That's right, it's confidence.
This emotion was not the arrogance shown on her face, but an emotion hidden deep in her eyes that only occasionally showed a little bit. Because she had been deliberately observing Ross, she had keenly captured it several times.
This kind of confident emotion is difficult for her to describe and somewhat incomprehensible. It is like an inexplicable calmness towards the world.
Except for confidence.
Ross's composure and determination were something she had encountered so far, and could not be compared to any leader of the underground forces or pirate leader.
Even though she is strong enough to travel across the West Sea, she still spends a lot of time exercising and practicing every day. Although she also likes to enjoy herself most of the time, she will give her a shoulder massage and so on...
"Since the captain has already thought about it, I will retreat first."
Robin's thoughts were fleeting and he smiled at Ross.
Ross nodded and she exited the room.
"call!"
Seeing Robin close the door, Ross grabbed a towel and wiped the remaining sweat on his face and shoulders, planning to do another set of exercises.
The various talents brought about by the talent system, especially the physical enhancement and agility enhancement of the general system, are completely based on his own strength.
Simply put.
If his own strength is one hundred kilograms, after clicking on the primary strength enhancement, it will increase to one hundred and fifty kilograms.
And if his own strength is one thousand kilograms, then clicking on the primary strength enhancement will increase it to one thousand five hundred kilograms instead of one thousand and fifty kilograms!
Universal talents are not fixed improvements.
His current physical strength enhancement, proficiency level is 100 points, which brings about a three-fold improvement based on himself, and the improvement brought about by his spiritual training will also be achieved by other people who do not have the talent of 'physical strength enhancement' three times.
On this sea.
For most people, even if they try their best to practice, it will be difficult for them to reach the level of Garp and Whitebeard throughout their lives, not even half of it.
As for Rhodes, he only needs to train his body to one-third of Garp's. With the blessing of the talent of physical strengthening, he can directly reach Garp's level!
Although... it is difficult to train to one-third of Garp's level.
And this also involves issues such as the stronger it is, the harder it is to improve. Ross is not a mathematician, so he can't calculate it, but he only needs to know that his practice is more effective than others.
"Speaking of which, I haven't used up the proficiency gained from killing Bastiu last time, and not long ago when I killed that guy who had a bounty of 34 million beli."
Ross touched his chin and thought for a moment before calling up the talent system.
Two months have passed since he killed Rear Admiral Bastiu. In these two months, he only killed one pirate with a bounty of 34 million beri, but the accumulated wealth already amounted to 90 million beri. Profitable.
That's why he followed the White Bear Pirates, whose captain offered a bounty of 45 million Baileys, to the Kingdom of Flowers, and purchased the main materials for a new ship along the way.
