East China Sea.
Rogue Town.
Wearing a navy uniform and holding a cigarette in her mouth, Vivian just appeared slowly from the corner of the street, and suddenly heard a quarrel coming from the front.
Looking up, he looked over with a pair of indifferent eyes, only to see a bald man with broad shoulders and a big waist grabbing the collar of an elderly fruit shop owner and threatening him fiercely:
"Old man, I respect you by eating your food, but you dare to ask me for money? Do you know who the boss of my family is?"
At the same time, four options popped up in Vivian's mind.
Option 1: Help the shop owner and teach the bald man a lesson. (Completion reward: one of the six random navy skills)
Option 2: Go up to the bald man and give him a verbal warning, and call his colleagues to punish him. (Completion reward: a random good sharp sword of 50 gong)
Option 3: Go up to him and ask what happened, and smile to ask the bald man to save your face. (Completion reward: 5 million Baileys)
Option 4: Continue to stand there and smoke, and wait and see what happens. (Completion reward: random basic attribute +1)
“Hiss~~Ha!”
Blowing out a puff of smoke, Vivian couldn't help but raise her eyebrows.
One of the six random naval styles
If you randomly get the Shave or Moon Step, wouldn't that be like having an extra way to save your life
The second item, the sharp sword, seemed pretty good. After all, he had been using the standard military swords issued by the base. After using sword skills a few times, there would be gaps on the blade, which was really painful.
As for the third option, 5 million berries, it was undoubtedly a huge sum of money for a naval sergeant like him whose monthly salary was only 300,000 berries.
"Well, the rewards for the three options all seem pretty good..."
He nodded to himself, and then shouted in his mind without thinking: "So I choose four!"
You chose option 4, and received a reward: Stamina +1
"Stamina?"
Recently, I don’t even feel tired after running almost 100,000 meters.
Vivian sighed inwardly again, then stood there, smoking a cigarette and watching the fun.
At the same time, the bald man raised his hand and punched the fruit shop owner in the face.
Bang!
The fruit shop owner fell to the ground with his teeth falling out of his mouth. Just as he saw the bald man taking out a dagger from his waist and about to move forward, an angry roar came from not far away, stopping the bald man from taking any further action.
"stop!"
Turning around, I saw that the person who made the roar was also a navy soldier, with a melon-shaped face, blond hair, and a pair of silver-framed glasses. His gentle brows were full of the so-called "sense of justice".
Vivian recognized him at a glance. This man was none other than Couto, a sergeant of the same rank as himself, who had just been transferred to the Rogue Town Base last month.
"You dare to cause trouble in Rogue Town? Don't you take our navy seriously?" Couto drew out his saber and pointed it at the bald man.
However, the bald man smiled disdainfully when he saw this, then took out a flintlock pistol from his crotch and put it against Couto's head.
"What did you say just now? Say it again if you dare!"
Cotto:
The other side.
Option 1: Draw your sword and help your colleague, chopping down the bald man. (Completion reward: a random animal-type devil fruit)
Option 2: Go back to the base to ask for help. (Completion reward: Basic sword skill x1 in a random plane)
Option 3: Buy a pound of lychees on the street, give them to the bald man, and apologize to him. (Completion reward: random skill experience +1)
Looking at the option box that popped up in her mind again, Vivian weighed a pound of lychees at a roadside stall without any hesitation, walked over and handed it to the bald man.
"Hmm?" The bald man subconsciously reached out to take it, then looked at Vivian in surprise and asked, "How do you know I like to eat this?"
He was buying fruits in the fruit shop just now and found that his favorite lychees were not available, so he got angry. Unexpectedly, two sailors suddenly appeared nearby, which forced him to prepare for the worst.
However..
"Really? It's great to be to your taste!"
Vivian bowed to the bald man with a flattering smile on his face. "This guy just came here last month. He doesn't know the rules. Please don't bother with him. On behalf of the Rogue Town Base, I sincerely apologize to you."
Bald man: (⊙_⊙)
Are the navy of Luo...Roger Town so polite to others
The bald man's expression of surprise became even more intense.
But after a little thought, he immediately reacted.
I guess it must be because of my eldest brother
After all, his boss is a well-known underworld leader in the nearby waters. Not to mention that he has as many as 150 towns and territories under his jurisdiction, even if you look at the entire East China Sea, few people dare to go against him.
"He must have recognized me."
"After all, I have been following the boss out to collect protection fees for many years, and because I look very handsome, it is hard not to leave a deep impression on people..."
In this light, it is understandable that the boy in front of him would feel afraid.
"Boy, if you know what's best for you, I won't bother with you today."
After saying that, the bald man stuffed a lychee into his mouth, turned around and left proudly.
You chose option 3, and received a reward: Brewing experience +1
The prompt tone just fell.
Cotto clenched his fists and shouted at Vivian, "Vivian, as a marine, you are so servile to such a villain. Are you worthy of the uniform you wear? Are you worthy of the justice you uphold? You don't deserve to be a marine at all!"
"Oh, yes, yes." Vivian nodded vigorously.
"You're just a coward!"
"Oh, yes, yes."
"When Colonel Smoker comes back, I will tell him what you did today!"
"Oh, yes, yes..well, whatever you like."
Vivian spread his hands, ignored Cotto who was cursing, then took out a cigarette, put it in his mouth, and walked away.
Cotto was left alone, looking at Vivian's back, gritting his teeth, with an indignant expression on his face that took a long time to subside.
...
More than ten minutes later.
Vivian entered the base, returned to his single dormitory, jumped onto the bed, and then opened the system panel in his mind.

Vivian flicked away the cigarette butt, put her hands behind her head comfortably, and then couldn't help sighing.
“It’s been two years…”
It has been almost two years since he came into this world.
I still remember when I first came here two years ago, I was still a young man who was ignorant and full of fantasies about everything in this world.
I couldn't help but touch the scar on the back of my neck, and my thoughts slowly drifted back to that stormy evening two years ago...
