Chapter 16: Set off again

As Zangao and his gang retreated from the slope in a panic, Rochi's side finally won the battle. Then a rising sun rose on the eastern horizon. The villagers of Sirobu Village began to work from sunrise, repeating the peaceful life as usual.
No one knew the battle that was so close.
The housekeeper Meli saved his life under Clow and changed the bandage under Keya's careful care. At this time, he knew the cause and effect of the matter, and couldn't help but feel deeply regretful of misunderstanding Usopp yesterday.
"I didn't expect Crabatel to be a big pirate..."
Meli felt both thankful and afraid: "It's really thanks to those brave young men and Usopp, otherwise the village must have been plundered by pirates now..."
"So we should thank them."
"I will make arrangements right away!"
Roche and his group quickly received the reward from Keya's family. The generous gift that Meli prepared for them was a Calavellian sailboat: "Although the type is a bit old, it is a masterpiece designed by me personally. It is sturdy and reliable, light and fast, and has a good firepower. It is very suitable for sailing on the sea..."
"I believe this ship will definitely be your most reliable partner!"
Meli stood in front of the boat docked on the shore and said endlessly: "I have artistically treated the hull design, and the sheep head decoration on the bow is the finishing touch, so I named it--"
"Just call it Golden Meli."
Roche suddenly interrupted Meli's words, gave this name that had been considered long ago, and then held the other party's hands very kindly: "Thank you very much for your affection and friendship, we will definitely cherish this ship!"
"You are so kind!"
Although Roach took away the naming rights, since he brought his name, it means that the other party respects him as the designer very much. Therefore, Meli still said with a smile: "I have asked someone to put all the necessary materials for sailing on the ship. Next, let's explain the structure and operation method of the cabin. First, how to use ropes to adjust the direction of the sail..."
Of course, I have to find a professional to ask for professionals, so Roach quickly asked Nami to come over and communicate with Meli.
"I've made up my mind to go out to sea!"
While Meli and Nami were handing over, Usopp also appeared in front of Roach, carrying a huge backpack with his full possession: "Do you really want to invite me on the boat?"
"What stupid things are you still saying?"
Roche smiled and patted his shoulder: "Aren't we already partners?"
Guina nodded in agreement.
Although she doesn't think Usopp can make achievements in force, she doesn't hate such people who are full of courage in their bones.
So when the Golden Melis officially set sail, Roach's command had another new crew member.
"From now on, Usopp will be the sniper and gunner on our ship, and also serve as a helmman, boatman and lookout..." After arranging a bunch of professional titles for the fourth partner, Roach raised his glasses to the other three: "Let's celebrate the increase of partners and the new ship together!"
Nami and Guina were naturally enthusiastic.
After a hot and drunken feast, Usopp, who had been drinking, said that he would let everyone see his shooting level and test the power of the cannons on the ship. So after aiming, he accurately bombarded a rock mountain in the distance.
It is this shot that kicks off a new plot:
After the stone mountain was blown up, a small boat rushed over quickly, and a swordsman in blue jumped out of it, and he wanted to avenge his partner with great momentum, but he lost to Rochi in a minute. The swordsman suddenly saw Guina when he was regretting, so the deck of the Meli immediately turned into a scene of recognizing relatives.
It turned out that Guina had saved his and her partner's lives, but they both unilaterally recognized her as the eldest sister's head.
The blue-clothed swordsman is named Johnny, and his partner is named Joseph.
The two are a bounty hunter group.
Rochi, who has seen the original work, is of course very impressed by them. These two people are one of the sword emperor and the other are the sword saint. In terms of strength, they are probably enough to compete with the axe king Monka. They are indeed two brilliant new stars across the East China Sea.
"Why are you attacking this ship?"
Guinna stared at Johnny with some confusion: "Why are there no one in Joseph? Haven't you always been inseparable?"
"Joseph's situation is bad now..."
Johnny put his partner who kept coughing blood on the boat, and said with a very sad expression: "A few days ago, he was still alive and jumping around, but he suddenly became prone to fainting. Later, even his teeth began to fall off and his old injuries began to spit blood. I didn't know what to do, so I took him to rest behind the rock. As a result, the ship suddenly fired, so I couldn't help but want to question..."
Usopp, the culprit, was sweating profusely.
"Are you two idiots? You don't have any common sense at sea!" Nami poured a glass of lime juice from the kitchen to save the situation: "He has scurvy! The reason for the disease is the lack of fruit and vegetable nutrition. If you supplement more vitamins and nutrition, you will be cured soon!"
Johnny said in surprise: "So it can be cured? I thought it was a terminal illness!"
"I am really convinced that I dare to go out to sea without knowing anything!" Nami poured orange juice into Joseph's mouth: "You are too underestimating nature, right? If you don't meet us this time, this guy will have to wait for a few more days!"
"How can we know about nutrition or other knowledge..."
Johnny scratched his forehead awkwardly: "We are not sea chefs or doctors, we can only do some business of killing people and getting money..."
"I think we have to recruit a professional chef as soon as possible!"
Nami couldn't help but make strong suggestions to Roach: "A good chef can not only make delicious food, but also correctly prepare dishes to ensure balanced nutrition, prevent the occurrence of various diseases and enhance the physical fitness of the crew, at least it won't make a big mistake similar to these two people!"
Usopp jumped out and said, "Then where can we recruit chefs?"
"If you want to find a chef, I know a place." Johnny quickly provided information: "There is a very famous sea restaurant in the water ahead, which can be reached in about two or three days. Maybe you can find a suitable chef there!"
"But you must be mentally prepared..."
Johnny said solemnly: "Since there is close to the great route, there will be many dangerous guys!"
"No one is more dangerous than us, right?"
In order to complete the sixth mission issued by the Heavenly Dao system, Roche had intended to go to the sea restaurant. Now that these people have been talking about it, he naturally issued the captain's order: "Let's go there and take a look and see what is called-"
Chapter completed!
