"Speaking of which, I struggled for a moment at first, because in the information given by Colonel Adkin, it was mentioned that Longinus might be a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy."

Longinus was stunned for a moment, and quickly understood: "Maybe it's because I'm older, and those big kids in the town like to call me big brother, but it's Major General Jonathan, how do you know my existence?" Is it because of my name? ”

"Of course not, the speed and strength you just showed may not be able to be achieved even by some colonels of the headquarters who have studied physical arts. I don't think it's likely that there will be two powerhouses of the same name in such a short period of time. ”

Jonathan said secretly in his heart: "Even if it is me, it is impossible to use my body to catch bullets in such a short distance without using the six-style iron block or armed color domineering. MOM IS THAT KIND OF PHYSICAL MONSTER? ”

(Karp will also bleed when he is attacked by Monka, indicating that most of the physical powerhouses should not be like Kaido or BIG· MOM's kind of steel. )

"Compared with Lieutenant General Karp, General Zefa, my strength is still too far behind, and I must always sharpen myself with the concept of justice." Longinus showed his vision for the navy at the right time.

Jonathan was stunned, and then laughed loudly: "Hahaha! Are you aiming for an admiral? It's good, young people should have this kind of lofty ideals and aspirations. I hope that the next time we meet, you will still be living up to your beliefs and fighting hard to carry out justice. ”

After saying that, Rear Admiral Jonathan did not continue to stay, but slowly left with the group of navy behind him.

The crowd gradually dispersed, but the heat did not subside, and legends about the two were quietly brewing.

At this moment, the little girl stood aside, looked at the two of them with shining eyes, and handed the flower that was almost withering on her chest to T. Penn's hand, and the crisp and soft voice sounded.

"Uncle Penn, Brother Longinus, thank you for saving me, these flowers are ...... Ah! Is it already crumpled? ”

Seeing the pitiful appearance of the little girl crying, T. Penn said a little helplessly: "You...... What's wrong with you, did I accidentally hit you somewhere? ”

Longinus bent down, put his palm on the little girl's head, and said gently like a drizzle: "I like your gift very much, it contains gratitude and tears, this is the most valuable gift I have received this year!"

"Really...... Are you sure? The little girl stopped crying, and her eyes sparkled with stars.

"Of course it's true, go home quickly, your family may be anxiously looking for you!"

"Uh-huh!" The little girl nodded vigorously, "Brother Longinus, Uncle Penn, thank you for saving me, you are all the best people in the world!" ”

Seeing the little girl bouncing and laughing and leaving, Peng En had an idiotic smile on his face, this was to be placed in that other world, maybe he would be arrested as a pervert.

After a while, Peng En woke up from his stupid state, holding the crumpled bouquet of flowers tightly in his hand, and asked Longinus hesitantly, "No...... Sorry, but this bouquet of flowers can ...... Can you leave it to me? I...... I don't have much money, but I'll definitely try to make money to compensate you. ”

"Of course you can, you don't have to be so outside, this is a gift from the little guy, if it weren't for you, it wouldn't have lasted the moment I played." Longinus smiled freely.

"Brother Longinus, thank you, you are such a wonderful man!" Peng Enzhen carefully put away the bouquet and said contentedly: "The third, I finally received the third gift of my life!"

Listening to T. Penn's poignant words, Longinus somewhat understood his belief in why he had to become a navy.

A person like Penn with the face of a wicked person, even an evil spirit, no matter how much good he does, it is difficult to erase the disgust that most people have that comes from instinct.

Judging from what he has done today, there are definitely not a few people he has helped in his daily life, however...... The people who really gave him gifts to express gratitude, and the little girl today is only three, it is hard to imagine how much pain he usually endures.

Because of this, he is so eager to become a navy, and he doesn't dare to resist even when he is beaten by those garbage characters, he hopes that the moment he puts on the coat of justice, he can be accepted and accepted by more people.

Longinus knew early on that the world was never fair, as evidenced by a man like T. Penn who gave ten times as much effort as others but struggled to get a tenth of what others had gained.

"Let's get to know each other again, my name is Longinus, I'm 12 years old, and I'm from Fallen Leaf Town on the Great Voyage." Longinus had a gentle smile on his face and a clear heart, and a person with low self-esteem and kindness like T. Penn would reap a pure heart as long as he gave a little light.

"I ...... My name is T. Penn, I'm 19 years old, and I'm from Baiye City in the South Seas. Penn seemed a little scared, a strong, confident, and shining person like Longinus should be the center of attention by nature, and a person like him who was not welcomed should be two worlds at all.

Longinus was slightly stunned, this guy looked really ...... Showing his age, even if he says he is 39 years old, he will not have any accidents.

Fortunately, Longinus's control of his heart did not reveal any impolite looks, and he soon called out enthusiastically.

"South China Sea? It's a fantastic sea, and there are many strange rumors circulating, have you heard that even legendary creatures like griffons have appeared in you? ”

Listening to Longinus mention his hometown, T. Penn suddenly felt that the other party was much closer, and the illusory barrier that was high above was broken, and he responded enthusiastically and familiarly.

"Do you know the legend of the griffon? The griffon was near my hometown, and I saw it once, but it was captured by a group of extremely powerful pirates, and I heard that it became their private collection. ”

"Don't talk about these bad things." Longinus shook his head and asked, "Penn, are you also going to sign up in two days?" ”

"Yes, but I don't have the same lofty ideals as you Longinus, I just want to be able to become a navy, to be able to protect the smiles on everyone's faces, and to be accepted and respected by everyone!" Penn said shyly but firmly.

"In that case, let's go together in two days, people here are not familiar with each other, and two people can be regarded as companions together."

"Really...... Can it really be? ”

"Of course, if you fight side by side, you can be considered friends!"

"Friend......" Penn muttered to himself, for whom it had never been a luxury.

Penn, who looked to be in his thirties and forties, cried helplessly like a child, "Brother Longinus, thank you!" ”
