Rebirth in One Piece as Deputy Captain

Chapter 253

On East Blue, Luffy who didn’t know all of this was still laughing with joy. They were moving towards Grand Line.

Lin Tian was holding an orange in his hand, half lying on the side of the boat. This kind of leisurely life after all those years of Grand Line, felt really unusual.

Luffy, who wanted to steal the orange, was kicked off by Sanji again, and hit Usopp who was experimenting with his chili bomb.

Luffy fell to the ground, with a face of dissatisfaction and said: “What are you doing? What does it matter if I eat one?”

“Hey, Luffy, this is my orange circle,” Nami reminded from begind.

Pointing to Lin Tian who is lying on the side and eating oranges leisurely, Luffy looked dissatisfied and said: “Nami, why can Lin Tian eat oranges, but I can’t eat them?”

Throw in an orange at will, Lin Tian said with a smile: “That’s because I spent 100 million Berry to buy everything. These two orange trees are mine. Of course, I can eat them.”

Luffy had no choice but to pout. Although he didn’t want to admit it, it was a fact. Luffy was a poor ghost. Seeing Luffy’s appearance, Lin Tian couldn’t help but smile and threw the orange in his hand.

After taking the orange, Luffy smiled. At this time, two bounty slips slipped from the newspaper.

“Hahahaha…”

Luffy held a bounty slip in one hand and laughed, “I’m so happy now that Zoro and I have a bounty.”

Looking at the bounty list above carefully, Usopp read: “…’Whether alive or dead, Luffy 50 million Berry bounty, Zoro 30 million Berry bounty.'”

“What!” “What!”

On the side, Zoro, who was half-lying asleep, woke up immediately, jumped quickly, and grabbed the bounty from Luffy’s hand. He looked at it carefully.

Sure enough, on the bounty list, there was a picture of him at the sea restaurant, and under it, it said 30 million Berry regardless alive or dead.

On the side, Sanji, who also saw clearly, immediately shouted: “What! Even the moss-head has 30 million Berry, but I don’t even have a bounty?!”

“Said there are 50 million Berry, hahaha…!” obviously, Luffy is very happy that he can have such a high bounty.

But Zoro has a heavy color on his face. As a Bounty Hunter, he knows what the number of 30 million Berry means.

Most pirates in East Blue have less than 10 million Berry bounty. And those people are The Clown Buggy, Krieg, and Arlong they deal with. Some famous Grand Line Great pirates have a bounty of up to 20 million Berry.

Now I actually have 30 million Berry, more than Arlong’s 10 million Berry bounty. How can I have such a high bounty, it is very strange, Zoro wondered.

Usopp pointed at the back of his head on the bounty order and proudly said: “Look, the whole world has seen me, I’m so popular…”

Sanji hurriedly came over, although it was only a back of the head, but his tone was unavoidably a little envious and said: “Is there anything to be proud of, isn’t it just a back of the head?”

Upon seeing this, Usopp is even more proud, “Don’t be sad, wait until you become a powerhouse, not even the captain will be posted.”

Sanji was a little excited and asked: “Really?”

“Of course!” Pointing to the meditating Zoro next to him, “Look, Zoro is not the captain, but his bounty surpasses Arlong.”

Holding the bounty slip, Luffy approached Zoro and said with a smile: “Zoro, now that you have been bountied too, our pirate group is a big pirate group. Friends, let’s move forward towards the Grand Line!”

Becoming a Pirate King and finding one piece has always been Luffy’s dream. Now having bounty 50 million Berry, known by the world, it is one step closer to becoming a Pirate King; the distance from his dream has been shortened.

Listening to Luffy’s words, Zoro also showed a smile on his face. No matter what, he is now also known as the Great pirate of Bounty. In some respects, he has also become famous in the world.

Seeing the laughing Luffy, Zoro couldn’t help but recall the scene when he accepted Luffy’s invitation in Marine base. At that time, he said, ‘Becoming a member of the devil, even if I am notorious, I will make a name in this world.’

He didn’t expect for only more than a month, what Luffy promised has been realized.

Nami looked at Luffy who didn’t have the slightest sense of urgency, and covered her face, feeling helpless for these smiling people.

Lin Tian who came up, lightly patted Nami’s shoulder, looked at Luffy and the others who laughed, with a smile on his face, “It is precisely this that is their essence. Anyway, things have happened. Whatever so much, why not think about more happy things.”

“That’s why this is sad…” Nami is still very worried that Luffy and Zoro have such a high bounty. “They really don’t understand the seriousness of the matter. Such a high bounty means that people are willing to kill them and there will be many Bounty Hunters watching them.”

At this time, Usopp is very happy that he can also become famous in the world. “Now I, Luffy, and Zoro are all famous in the world. Lin Tian, Nami, and Sanji are the only ones left. You have to cheer up too.”

After Usopp’s reminder, Zoro was also a little surprised. It stands to reason that with Lin Tian’s strength, he should have a bounty.

Furthermore, from the situation of Fishman Pirates from Grand Line that day, Lin Tian is a very powerful powerhouse in Grand Line, who can also compete with Hawk Eyes Mihawk. Against Marine, he must have very high bounty.

He can’t help but ask: “Lin Tian, do you already have a bounty? Why have I never seen it?”

Sanji also rarely stood in the same position as Zoro, and said, “Lin Tian, weren’t you a Marine Headquarters Vice Admiral before. Now that you have betrayed Marine, you should have a very high bounty right? So, how much is it?”

“What!” The other three exclamations sounded. They remembered about Lin Tian’s Marine Vice Admiral incident when they went to Cocoyasi Village that day, and some things were not clear.

Usopp looked scared, holding his face shocked and said: “Lin Tian- Lin Tian, you are a stong Marine Vice Admiral…”

Nami looked at Lin Tian in shock. As Nami who likes to read books and newspapers, she knows some things better than others. Of course, she knows what Marine Vice Admiral means.

“Lin Tian, you’re a Marine Vice Admiral, so you’ve recently betrayed Marine, huh.” She held her chin in contemplation, “and recently, Marine Vice Admiral’s betrayal of such a big thing must have been reported. However, there is only one recent report from relevant parties.” Nami, who wanted to understand, suddenly lifted her head, “A few months ago, the Vice Admiral who killed five World Nobles and betrayed Marine Headquarters was you…”

Zoro said: “That said, I also had images of that incident. After all, as a bounty hunter, I had some images of bounty criminals all over the world. At that time, the Marine Headquarters Vice Admiral was called Lin Tian.”

Hearing Zoro’s words, Usopp also suddenly remembered, “So, I seem to have seen it too. At that time, when I was looking for Kaya, Kaya gave me a newspaper which recorded that incident.”

“In this case, then, the strongest genius of Marine who shocked the world several times that year is you, Lin Tian.” Sanji asked in a deep voice.

For them to understand their identity so quickly, Lin Tian was not at all surprised. Now Luffy and Zoro are also considered high-stakes bounty offenders, this information will prepare them.

The simple Luffy suddenly said: “You only know now? I thought you guys knew it a long time ago.”

“Stupid, don’t tell me if we know, we are different from you.” everyone scolded in unison.

“Hey, hey!” Usopp put his chin on and meditated: “Hey, Lin Tian is like you and has that status. If you betray Marine, you should have a very high bounty, how much is it?”

Hearing this, everyone’s eyes were full of curiosity. Although they had heard reports from related parties, they still didn’t know the specifics. After all, things of that level were too far away from them.

Just when everyone was expecting Lin Tian’s answer, Luffy ate the remaining oranges in a couple of bites, and simply said: “1 billion. Lin Tian’s bounty is 1 billion Berry.”

Seeing Luffy answer for Lin Tian, a wry smile appeared on Lin Tian’s face, but he still nodded.

“1 billion Berry!”

After a few seconds of silence, there were several exclamations. Everyone was shocked by the high bounty gold. You must know East Blue’s past highest bounty is 20 million Berry, and Lin Tian is 50 times that.

“I’m only 50 million Berry now, and that far away from Lin Tian, but it doesn’t matter. One day, I will surpass Lin Tian, but I want to be the man Pirate King.”

Hearing Luffy’s confident words, Nami, who reacted, moved towards Luffy with an annoyed punch and slammed it fiercely on the head, directly knocking him to the ground.

Raising her fist, she said angrily, “Idiot, do you know what this means?! Plus Lin Tian’s bounty, our entire pirate’s bounty gold reached 1.8 billion Berry.”

Lin Tian suddenly smiled. In the eyes of several people, Lin Tian explained briefly: “The bounty of 1.8 billion Berry is on the Grand Line. They are all pirates with extremely high rankings. There are not many pirates that can surpass this number. Our group is the kind of group that is enough for Marine Headquarters to use the highest battle strength to encircle and suppress. For this kind of pirates, Marine Headquarters will dispatch at least one third or more of their battle strength.”

“Marine Headquarters’ one third of battle strength… we are dead, why did I get to this pirate ship.” Nami said with tears in his eyes and sadness.

Even Zoro the battle maniac has an extremely heavy face. With such a high bounty, there will be countless people on the Grand Line watching them, and it will be full of battle by then.

Looking at everyone worried, Lin Tian slightly sighed in his heart. Currently, they are still too weak, and there are still many things that he has not said.

Immediately, a different smile appeared on his face, making the others involuntarily shuddered.

“In order to let you live longer in Grand Line, I’ll personally train you.”

“What!”
