Chapter 55 You are not even fit to be a handyman, get off the boat!
🕑 Added 2025-04-21 17:08:20 +0000 UTCAt this moment, the three people beside Asaq were excited.
It was as if they were the ones blushing with excitement!
"Asaq! Asaq!!"
"I'm not dreaming, am I?!"
"Captain... the captain actually recognized you?!"
"How should I react?! Should I kneel now?"
They weren't fools.
They knew very well how valuable the captain's words were!
Although the captain had earlier said that only those strong enough could become his crew, with the guidance of Gojo Satoru and Jiguo Yuichi, would it be hard to get stronger?
Not at all!
They had seen just how strong Wujogo's abilities were.
1v1 against the Admiral of the Headquarters, Aokiji, and won!
Where else could they find such a teacher?!
With that in mind, wasn't it only a matter of time before they officially became part of the crew?
Thinking about this, the three of them were both excited and regretful.
They were excited that Asaq had received a response after kneeling and swearing allegiance.
This news made them so excited they wanted to shout out loud.
But they also regretted not being brave enough to kneel with Asaq and swear allegiance.
Now that the opportunity had passed, they were worried they might never find a similar chance again.
They even wanted to beat their chests in frustration.
At this time, Asaq wiped away his grateful tears and said to his companions:
"Don’t talk nonsense. The captain didn’t say I was a trainee crew member."
"He just asked Big Brother Gojo and Big Brother Yuichi to guide me when they have time and interest."
"Don’t spread the word!"
Hearing this, the three of them immediately shut up.
Asaq didn’t want them spreading the word about him being a trainee crew member, and they understood that.
He was afraid that these words might reach the captain’s ears and make him think he was getting too complacent, which could make him change his mind.
Soon, the three of them calmed down.
But in their eyes, there was a strong sense of envy and jealousy.
Alright, good guy!
Now even Big Brother is shouting!
It seemed like Asaq was ready to train himself.
To make himself stronger and become a member of the Kamui Pirates!
It was at this time that Gojo Satoru’s voice suddenly came from the deck.
"You guys, it's time to set sail!"
"If you don't board the ship, you'll be left behind."
Gojo Satoru smiled and joked as he watched the four of them.
When Asaq and the others below heard the words, they immediately packed their bags and boarded the ship, preparing to set sail.
Soon after, the flag of the Kamui Pirates was raised!
The sails with the Kamui Pirates insignia were unfurled!
"Whoooosh!!"
The wind filled the sails.
The ships of the Kamui Pirates set sail!
They were embarking on their Grand Line journey!
Originally, Kronos had absolutely no intention of promoting any of the handymen.
He had never even considered it.
Because the crew of Kronos was strong enough!
And even though there were few people now, they could be replenished from the system in the future.
Although it was a small number, it was better than nothing, as none of the crew members should be underestimated!
Kronos didn’t really need Asaq’s allegiance.
He didn’t need the allegiance of any of the handymen.
But.
The scene of Asaq kneeling and swearing allegiance did make Kronos pause for thought.
In his two lifetimes, this was the first time Kronos had seen someone kneel to swear allegiance.
It gave him some insight into what the future might hold.
As for the future of Asaq, it didn’t really matter to Kronos.
...
...
Quiet time always passes quickly.
The departure of the Kamui Pirates happened several days ago.
And during these days,
Something strange had been happening aboard the Kamui Pirates' ship.
The original handymen, who had been able to rest for a while, no longer had that luxury.
The things they couldn't do, the places they couldn’t clean—those were still impossible to clean.
But things had changed now.
Since Asaq had kneeled to swear allegiance and received a response, the handymen seemed to have been injected with some sort of energy.
When they had nothing else to do, they trained hard.
Squeezing in time to make themselves stronger.
The reason for this was simple: they were waiting for the day when they would be recognized.
They might have to take some detours, but for now, they had their sights set on becoming recognized.
The handymen now saw being recognized by the captain as their ultimate goal.
Even among these handymen, a phrase had inexplicably spread.
That was:
"Just like you? You’re not even fit to be a handyman for the Kamui Pirates. Get off the boat!"
