three days later.
A piece of news caused an uproar throughout East Blue, and even once again attracted the attention of some of the powers in the first half of the Grand Line.
The reason why this news caused such a sensation was because the largest newspaper in East Blue had finally gathered information on the "Three Little Gift Hunters".
More precisely, they had gathered information on the main force of the "Three Little Gift Hunters".
It was this information that once again attracted the attention of some of the powers in the Grand Line.
This information was in the newspaper's main title today - "Young Swordsman!"
Under the bolded title is a photo that serves as the cover of the title.
The picture in the photo is of a boy with a fat baby on his face, holding a famous sword that can be seen as extraordinary just from his appearance, sending out a huge cyan flying slash, which is a huge flying sword, kill a certain group of pirates.
The content of the news was praising the young swordsman.
According to the information revealed by the naval branch in Loguetown, the name of the young swordsman was El, and his actual age was only eight years.
At the age of eight, it was more like a child than a boy.
Even such a child was a swordsman who could transmit flying slashes.
Although most people in East Blue did not know what a flying slash was, it did not hinder El's reputation from spreading from the weakest sea and attracting attention.
For example, the naval headquarters were rejected while recruiting, they ordered the naval branch in Loguetown to send invitations to El again and promise more profits.
An eight-year-old swordmaster was extremely rare even in this sea where there were many races and no shortage of geniuses and monsters.
Not to mention the Naval Headquarters, even the CP organization Mary geoise was tempted by it.
This age is the most suitable stage for brainwashing.
If he could be kidnapped into the CP organization, there would probably be another murder weapon similar to Rob Lucci.
And the pirates in the East Blue who knew what a master swordsman was, considered El to be the greatest threat.
...
El did not expect that fame would come so soon.
At first he just wanted to earn some quick money but he underestimated the influence of the big cities.
Before Smoker was sent to Loguetown, the atmosphere was very chaotic.
In East Blue, all the powers with some intelligence ability would put eyeliners here.
So El's high-profile hunt instantly became the focus in Loguetown.
Fortunately, El reacts in time and lets Nami hide, not letting the paparazzi hiding among the crowd take pictures of them all.
Otherwise, it is absolutely inevitable to crash into the grass and surprise the fish.
To prevent more accidents, El only hunts down two more waves of pirates, sends them to the naval branch, and loots the treasures from their ship, then returns to the hotel, where they are, ready to get out of here right after the new ship is delivered.
"Nii-san, you're famous!"
"Look, look... Nii-san, these newspapers and magazines say that you are the strongest bounty hunter in the East Blue."
A few days later.
At the hotel, Carina and Nami hold newspapers and magazines, handing them over to El eagerly.
"...boring."
No matter in which world, tabloid newspapers that are not included in major newspapers will most likely increase sales by following the trend.
Now is the time when people are most curious about El, and newspapers keep telling him.
since El is not a fierce pirate, but rather a bounty hunter, many paparazzi are squatting outside, looking for an opportunity to interview El to get some information.
That's what makes El lazy out.
...
The time soon came for the day when a new ship was sent from the shipyard.
In the morning, the three girls are tasked with checking in, while El increases his speed to MAX status, turning into a shadow and leaving the hotel.
when the four meet in an alley, El puts on the robe Carina bought for her, and heads to the shipyard.
When they came to the shipyard, the four of them were warmly received by the manager.
Even his attitude towards El was a little flattering.
Clearly, the other party already knew that El, who was a famous 'big guy' in East Blue recently.
Facing the manager's help, El didn't bother exchanging with him, and immediately asked to see a new ship.
Soon, a group of five people came to the rear shipyard and a ship covered with black cloth was moored there.
The size of the ship is not large, only a small ship with a single mast.
The best way to distinguish large, medium, and small vessels from those that adjust to those that are too large is by how many masts they have.
Which has only one small pole, which has two medium-sized poles, and which has three large-sized poles.
The Golden Merry in the original Straw Hat Pirates was a small ship, and the Thousand Sunny was a medium-sized ship.
The new ship customized by the four is small in size.
However, unlike the Golden Merry, the custom version of El is a bit more advanced. It has three cabins, two at the top and one at the bottom, and its height and length have also reached the maximum capacity of small vessels.
"Good, you've worked hard."
After removing the black cloth and inspecting the ship, the four of them were very satisfied with the new ship.
After paying the final payment, Nami can't wait to push the new ship out towards the port.
At this time, Carina also opened the phone bug she bought in Loguetown when they visited nine days ago to take some pictures.
After the new ship docked at the designated spot, a group of muscular men with red tattoos on the upper body, carrying furniture, as well as refrigerators and other equipment, walked towards the harbor.
Carina and Nami directed the men to move the furniture and equipment to the designated place.
After the last man boarded the boat with a wooden barrel containing an ordinary sword, El gave them a tip, and the four of them drove the new boat and returned to the original small boat.
The ships, one large and one small are connected to each other. After Carina and Nami carry all their belongings, El takes out his sword (Sandai Kitetsu) and slashes towards the small sailing ship.
Swish - kacha!
As the cold light flashed, the small sailing ship and the part of the sea below split into two smooth and straight lines.
Seeing this scene, Kuina's beautiful eyes flashed with another dazzling light.
The slash of the swordsman is incredible no matter how many times you look at it.
It had just broken through to nature, as if the human transformation towards the extraordinary had been completed.
