One Piece: Trying 200 times harder, but being too overbearing.

Loya nodded silently and asked, "Do you want to go back to how you were before?"

"Not really."

After hesitating for a moment, the young woman shook her head and whispered, "Although I earned more before, most of it had to be handed over to the boss, so in reality, it wasn't much different from what I earn now."

“The work is more tiring now, but we earn hard-earned money. Besides, we’ve all registered our identities with the Navy. If there’s a problem, the boss will also be in trouble.”

"You might not know this, but now even the boss doesn't dare to mess around with us. In the past, if we made a mistake..."

At this point, the young woman shuddered in fear and quickly changed the subject, her eyes filled with hope: "Right now, I just want to earn more money so I can buy my own house in Rogge Town."

"Then you have to work harder."

Loya smiled encouragingly, but felt a little uneasy inside.

These people at the bottom of the entertainment industry have no choice, they can't even guarantee their own safety, and a large part of them are forced into it.

This large-scale rectification gave them the opportunity to choose their lives anew, and it also allowed him to see the changes he had brought about.

He didn't really care about these things, nor did he intend to be a partner of justice, but seeing hope on other people's faces always made him feel a little better.

Just go with the flow.

Before leaving, the young lady caught up with her.

"Wait a minute, handsome."

A small note was secretly slipped into Loya's hand.

"This is?"

"Where I live."

The young woman's cheeks flushed slightly, and she turned her head away shyly, explaining softly, "Um, I didn't want to do business with you, and I didn't intend to take any money."

"oh, I understand now."

Loya smiled and nodded, then turned and left, waving happily.

"Thank you!"

Chapter 77 Departure, the Grand Line

Food Tavern, Backyard Training Ground.

Loya, shirtless, was lifting a five-ton barbell, his whole body covered in sweat, his muscles gleaming.

Not far away, Zoro was also training, holding a specially made heavy sword in each hand and swinging it again and again.

He cultivates at home, goes out to catch pirates to test his cultivation results, earns some money along the way, and then finds his way home to continue his cultivation.

A monotonous and boring life, revolving around three points and one destination.

But Zoro enjoyed it immensely.

Excellent training conditions and logistical support allow him to focus on becoming stronger without any worries.

Loguetown's unique characteristics and geographical location mean that a steady stream of pirates will arrive, and their skill level will far surpass that of other seas in the East Blue. Many of them are powerful individuals preparing to head to the Grand Line.

This means there are countless opponents!

It can be said that there is no better place in the East Blue to hone his skills than Loguetown. Facing pirates and bounty hunters of all kinds, his combat experience is rapidly improving.

He's already able to hunt down pirates with bounties exceeding ten million!

At noon, after lunch.

Loya shouldered his pack.

Zoro was taken aback when he saw this and asked, "Are you going on a long trip?"

"Yes, let's go to the Grand Line."

Loya replied with a smile that the training warships that were picking them up had arrived in Rogge Town and were replenishing the supplies needed for the voyage. They were expected to set sail at 2 p.m.

Everything that needed to be explained has been explained, and the situation in Rogge Town has stabilized considerably. Moreover, he has only been gone for a little over three months and will be back soon.

"The Grand Line!"

Zoro's gaze was intense.

That man is also on the Grand Line!

"I'm going to cultivate!"

"."

Loya was quite surprised to see Zoro walk towards the backyard.

In the past, this kid would most likely have been arrogant and wanted to go along, and it would have been best if he had immediately challenged Hawkeye, relying on his confidence.

Good, you've made progress.

Loya waved goodbye to Lili and her mother.

The port is very close.

The super-large warship docked on the coast, attracting a lot of attention, especially the three heavy cannons at the bow, which were breathtaking to look at. It is said that a single shot could easily destroy a pirate ship.

It's a warship from the Navy Headquarters!

Hundreds of officers were gathered on the deck.

Loguetown is the last stop on the journey from the East Blue to the Grand Line, and also the last stop for the training warships in the East Blue. The officers from other branches who participated in the training had already boarded the ship, leaving only Loya.

"That black-haired guy must be a five-meter-tall strongman!"

"I heard he has bluish skin!"

"Isn't that a monster?!"

The officers were buzzing with discussion, quite curious about the "black-haired" who had become famous in the East Blue in the last two years. His achievement of winning over three super pirate crews in a row was something not everyone could do.

Besides, he's only been in the black hair business for less than two years!

"coming!"

A squad of marines appeared at the street corner; they appeared to be from the Loguetown branch, but one by one...

The officers looked hesitant.

"Why does he seem so sleazy?"

Rather than marines, they gave off more of a bunch of thugs, with an unusually strong sense of unruly hooligans.

Bartolomeo stood atop the crate, beaming with pride: "Hehehe, men, let's see Colonel Loya off!"

"Oh oh oh!"

The new recruits cheered excitedly; that devil was finally leaving!

"Colonel! Have a safe journey!"

"It's best if they never come back!"

"It would be even better if I could be eaten by a sea king!"

The new recruits were happily showing off.

"Shut up!"

Tashigi quickly scolded them, her face turning red with anxiety. These idiots were overjoyed to hear that Loya was going away for a while.

It's one thing to be happy in private, but they have to come over and show off, completely oblivious to the consequences.

Loya stood below the warship, watching the smug Barto and the new recruits, and was amused.

Very good, very energetic!

He quite liked this group of clowns, and the thought of leading them to rampage through the Marine Headquarters in the future gave him a kind of unconventional and wonderful feeling.

"Tashigi, go back and lock Bartolomeo in the dark for three days, and give the other recruits three days' leave!"

"Yes, Colonel!"

The new recruits stood there, stunned.

Did they hallucinate?

That devil actually gave them a holiday!

After a brief silence, the new recruits burst into tears of excitement. After two months of hard work, they could finally go out and have some fun.

"Long live the Colonel!"

"Long live! Long live! Long live!"

Everyone cheered with joy, except for one person who was very unhappy.

Bartolomeo was furious and wanted nothing more than to rush up and fight Loya, yelling, "Why am I the only one being punished?!"

"hehe."

Loya smiled and gave Barto the middle finger.

Turn around and board the ship!
