Great Voyage: Luffy’s voyage is revealed at the beginning Chapter 022

Chapter 22: Luffy’s Invitation

At night, the stars were brilliant, and the moon and stars competed for splendor. Ling Long moved a lounge chair to the balcony, looking at the bright starry sky and enjoying the comfort brought by the cool breeze.

Host: Ling Long

System Level: 1.

Swordsmanship: Intermediate Swordsman.

Devil Fruit: None.

Combat Skills: Soru, Geppo, Kami-e.

Points: 11796 points.

Ling Long saw the points in the attribute list and a big smile appeared on his face.

Buggy, oh Buggy, you really are a lucky star. You actually allowed me to get so many points. The next time we meet, I must treat you to a big meal.

Alas, what a pity. If only there was an internet in this world, how good would that be? Reading news from newspapers is really too backward.

According to Ling Long’s estimation, yesterday’s news printed about 20 million copies, but because of mutual circulation, Ling Long gained nearly 12, 000 points.

Now that the news has spread all over the world, after discussion, people know the content of the news, and fewer and fewer people will read newspapers again.

In other words, although this news is very explosive, Ling Long will find it difficult to gain more points…

This made Ling Long very depressed. If only there were mobile phones in this world, everyone could read the news with their phones, so they wouldn’t be limited by the number of newspapers.

“System, raise my strength to High-tier Swordsman.”

“Ding, the host currently has the strength of an Intermediate Swordsman. It requires 5000 points to upgrade to a High-tier Swordsman. Does the host wish to strengthen?”

“Strengthen.”

In an instant, a mysterious energy appeared out of thin air in Ling Long’s body, rapidly transforming Ling Long’s physique and strengthening his physical fitness.

Countless sword-fighting knowledge flooded into Ling Long’s consciousness and was quickly absorbed by Ling Long.

Half an hour later, the strengthening was over.

On the lounge chair, Ling Long clenched his fists tightly, looked at the full moon in the sky, and a big smile appeared on his lips.

High-tier Swordsman, finally!

Now Ling Long has the confidence to venture into the Grand Line. Although he doesn’t know Haki yet, in the first half of the Grand Line, not many people can defeat him.

If Ling Long learns Armament Haki again, as long as there are no special circumstances, there will be no danger in the entire first half of the Grand Line.

At this time, Ling Long still had 6796 points left. Exchanging for Elementary Armament Haki only required 5000 points, so Ling Long could already exchange for it.

But Ling Long was a little hesitant because he wanted to raise his strength to the level of a Great Swordsman first, and then consider the issue of Haki.

…

“Hey, Ling Long, why are you here?” Luffy walked over with a big piece of meat in his hand, grinning.

Ling Long glanced at Luffy beside him and asked with a strange expression, “You, are you hungry again?”

Today, Ling Long also gained some insight, knowing how much a person can eat.

At dinner, the huge dining table was filled with food, and 95% of the food was eaten by Luffy alone.

At that time, Luffy’s belly was bulging high, as if he was pregnant with twenty or thirty children, which really stunned everyone.

Kaya was worried that Luffy’s body would have problems and felt very guilty, wanting to call a doctor to check, but was stopped by Ling Long.

Speaking of which, how long has it been? This kid Luffy has started eating again. Is his stomach an interdimensional space?

“Hehehe…”

Luffy grinned, sat down cross-legged on the ground, took a big bite of the roasted meat in his hand, and said with a smile, “Ling Long, be my companion!”

Luffy had completely witnessed Ling Long’s strength, which made Luffy very excited.

In Luffy’s opinion, if Ling Long also became his companion, then he would be one step closer to becoming the Pirate King.

“Don’t even think about it, I’m not interested in being a pirate. Reporters are not bound by any rules. I can go to Marine bases whenever I want, and I can come to pirate nests whenever I want.”

Ling Long glanced at Luffy and said lightly, “The whole world is mine to roam. Can a reporter be so free? Can a pirate?”

“…”

Luffy was silent for a while, wanting to retort in his heart but not knowing what to say. Indeed, as Ling Long said, reporters are indeed much freer than pirates.

“Luffy, we are old acquaintances, so let me give you a suggestion…”

Ling Long looked at Luffy who was listening attentively and smiled, “If you meet your grandpa, be sure to ask him to teach you the Three Types of Haki, otherwise you won’t even have the qualifications to venture into the second half of the Grand Line.”

“Three Types of Haki? What’s that?”

Luffy’s eyes flashed slightly. After recalling carefully, he found that he had no impression of it at all.

Speaking of which, learning the Three Types of Haki from Grandpa?

Luffy recalled the fear of being dominated by his grandpa, and his back was instantly drenched in cold sweat, extinguishing the idea of learning Haki from his grandpa.

“Observation Haki, Armament Haki, Conqueror’s Haki, these are the Three Types of Haki.”

“People who don’t know Haki are considered small fry in the second half of the Grand Line. Of course, if you have a very powerful Devil Fruit, that’s another story.”

Although Ling Long exaggerated a bit, the powerhouses in the New World almost all know Haki, and there is a huge difference between having Haki and not having it.

Not knowing Haki means being a small fry?

Luffy grinned and asked, “Ling Long, you’re a reporter, so you have a wide range of news sources. What level do you think I am in the Grand Line with my current strength?”

“You?”

Ling Long raised an eyebrow, sized up Luffy, and hesitated, “Probably equivalent to a small pirate with a bounty of tens of millions?”

“Tens of millions?” Luffy’s eyes suddenly lit up.

“Very happy?”

Ling Long glanced at Luffy and said lightly, “In the first half of the Grand Line, there aren’t many pirates with bounties over 100 million. As for the second half, if you go in now, you might not see tomorrow’s sun.”

The first half of the Grand Line is Paradise, and there aren’t too many strong people, but there are several Warlords entrenched there, as well as some reclusive strong people.

Moreover, there is a special place in the first half, which is the Sabaody Archipelago.

The Sabaody Archipelago is too close to Marine Headquarters, and Celestial Dragons often play there, so it’s not surprising to encounter any strong people there.

In fact, with Luffy’s current strength, as long as he doesn’t provoke those strong people, he can still live a prosperous life in the first half of the Grand Line.

As for the second half, there are a lot of pirates with bounties over 100 million. If Luffy goes in now, he’s just courting death and could face death at any time.

“So there are so many strong people, that makes it more interesting…” Luffy was not discouraged, but instead, a strong fighting spirit rose in his heart.

If the path to the Pirate King was easy, it would not be exciting or meaningful.

Luffy quickly finished the roasted meat in his hand, stood up, and said with a smile, “Ling Long, thank you for the news. As for the Three Types of Haki, I will find others to learn from…”

Luffy didn’t ask Ling Long if he knew the Three Types of Haki. Since Ling Long told him to learn from his grandpa, it meant that even if Ling Long knew the Three Types of Haki, he wouldn’t teach him.

So why ask and make everyone awkward?

“By the way, Luffy, I’m leaving tomorrow morning. Remember to tell Zoro that the condition is that I’m allowed to use his name to write news…”

“Uh, Ling Long, you wouldn’t write random news using Zoro’s name, would you?”

Although Luffy thought Ling Long was a good person, Ling Long deliberately asked for the right to use Zoro’s name, which made Luffy a little worried.

“That’s none of your business. Anyway, he can’t refuse whatever news I write. Tell Zoro that if he wants his name back, then he needs to make a big news.

Whether it’s his news or someone else’s news, I don’t care, as long as I get a big news, then I’ll give him his name back.”

At this point, Ling Long squinted his eyes slightly and smiled, “Of course, Zoro can also go back on his word, I won’t mind, it’s not me who’s losing face anyway.”

Luffy secretly shook his head. He knew that Zoro would never go back on his word. Since he had promised something, he would definitely do it.

Forget it, forget it, let Zoro worry about it himself…

Luffy grinned, patted his butt, and strode out of the balcony.
