Chapter 18: The Governor of East China Sea, a Personal Invitation

"Luo Wen, Luo Wen, the Governor of the East China Sea is here to see you."

Nami shouted excitedly, followed by a team of marines.

The leader of the navy was Commodore Cullen, followed by Smoker.

Nami never thought that she would be related to such a big shot as the Governor of the East Sea.

"what's the situation?"

Looking at Lovell and Tashigi talking and laughing, Nami and the marines behind her were stunned.

Nami walked up to Lowen, feeling jealous.

It had only been a short time since she and Luo Wen separated, and now there was a little fan girl around her.

Isn’t this charm a bit too exaggerated?

The navy of Smoker and Rogue Town were also very puzzled. Isn't this their Tashigi? Why is she so close to Loven?

But they were too embarrassed to say it in front of the Governor of Donghai.

"You must be Mr. Lowen, you are really young and promising."

Karen broke the awkward atmosphere. He was not here to see the young man get jealous.

"I am Commodore Ames Cullen of the Navy Headquarters, and the current Governor of the East Sea."

Karen revealed her identity and showed her great respect for Loven.

"I'm Lowen, a bounty hunter."

"What do you want to see me for?"

Lowen responded politely, but his tone was quite bland and he did not take the governor seriously.

His branch had a scum like Colonel Mouse, and its own strength was just average, so there was really no need for Lowen to give him face.

But Colonel Laoshu was an absolute scandal in the East China Sea, the news was blocked, and only a few senior officials such as Karen and Liao Liao knew about it.

The surrounding navy did not know the truth and glared at Lowen. He was the highest commander of the East China Sea Navy and the idol of countless navy members in the East China Sea.

Even if you are Luo Wen, the strongest bounty hunter in the East China Sea, you should not be so dismissive.

"Shut up and don't embarrass me!"

Smoker roared while smoking a cigar. He couldn't stand his men being so insolent.

As the colonel of the headquarters and the highest-ranking officer stationed in Rogue Town, he naturally knew the inside story of Karen's visit to Lowen this time.

Like Karen, he didn't want to be hostile to Lowen just for a scumbag.

Lowen just looked around calmly, and the originally restless navy suddenly quieted down.

Just as a lion patrols its territory, the rabbits and mice remain silent.

Even Karen and Smoker were shocked by this majesty, and they couldn't help but feel wary of Loven.

Nami and Tashigi beside Lowen were equally shocked. They shuddered and got goose bumps under Lowen's majesty.

At this moment, the value of the strongest bounty hunter in the East China Sea has risen again.

Everyone knows that in the East China Sea, Luo Wen is the strongest bounty hunter in the East China Sea.

In the Grand Line, Lowen is the strongest bounty hunter in the Grand Line.

"Mr. Lowen, we mean no harm."

Lieutenant General Karen withstood the pressure and spread his hands towards Lowen to show his friendliness.

It was indeed right for him to come in person, and Lowen was definitely worthy of his attention.

"If you have anything to say, please tell me as soon as possible. My time is precious."

After being disturbed by the Marines, Lowen lost his patience.

Luo Wen looked at Karen, wanting to see what tricks he had.

"I extend my invitation to you again, hoping that you can join the Navy."

"As long as you agree, you will immediately become a colonel of this headquarters and enter the core sequence of this headquarters!"

"With your potential, you will definitely be one of the top three generals in the future."

Karen looked at Lowen sincerely.

This was the highest treatment he had applied for from the headquarters, and the Navy had never made such a promise to anyone.

Karen tried her best to redeem Colonel Mouse's bad impression of Loven.

He fought for this treatment with Admiral Sengoku for a long time.

Karen was very confident that Lowen would not refuse such a generous offer.

The surrounding navy were all stunned, and each of them looked at Lowen with envy.

As long as Luo Wen agrees, he will be able to rise to fame immediately.

They will start as colonels in the headquarters and will enter the core training sequence. They would never be able to have such a good thing even in their dreams.

And Brigadier General Karen's evaluation of Lowen is that he has the terrifying potential to reach the level of three admirals.

They are the world government's top combat force. Each of them is a rare monster in the world and a shining existence regarded as a nightmare by countless pirates.

Nami and Tashigi also looked at Lovell nervously. If he agreed, would their agreement still stand?

"That sounds good, but I refuse."

Without any hesitation, Lowen directly rejected Karen's invitation.

Not to mention the position of colonel in the headquarters, even if he was made a general directly, what would happen? Luo Wen had no interest in being a dog for the Celestial Dragons.

Joining the Navy is impossible!

However, he was still willing to poach some talent from the navy, as the talent there was indeed quite good.

"He actually refused!?"

Many navy officers found this incredible.

Faced with such favorable conditions, Luo Wen refused so straightforwardly.

For a time, many navies felt a deep sense of frustration.

The position he cherished and the treatment he could not even dream of were not worth even a moment's hesitation in Luo Wen's eyes.

"Why, can you tell me the reason?"

Lieutenant General Karen was stunned. This was a development he had never expected.

Could anyone really refuse this offer?

Karen looked at Lowen in surprise. He really wanted to open Lowen's brain and see what was inside.

"I don't want to be constrained. I want to do what I like."

Lowen's answer was fairly simple.

In this world, he can do whatever he wants.

No one can restrain him, and no one can make him do something he doesn't want to do.

"Do you know what you gave up just for this?"

"The whole navy's full training, six styles, domineering, swordsmanship, and the dedicated teaching of the navy seniors!"

"Your potential will be stimulated the fastest, and you will grow into a top powerhouse the fastest!"

Karen understood Lowen's mentality, but not his choice.

He was also a senior figure in the navy, so he naturally knew the darkness within.

Tian Shangjin, the Demon Slayer Order, the Celestial Dragons, and the Navy also have their own helplessness.

But compared with the treatment he gave to Lowen, these helplessness were nothing.

Karen tried to change Lowen's decision by describing the treatment of the core members of the navy.

"I still refuse."

Faced with Karen's promise, Lowen did not hesitate at all.

If he hadn't died, he would have really joined the navy and slowly upgraded himself.

But he has a god-level role-playing system, and his strength increases completely unreasonable, so there is naturally no need to put himself in a difficult position.

Sword skills and physical skills, his template comes with inheritance.

How can I learn how to go find Crocodile and harvest the experience pack?

Then advance to find Kaido, the Three Sticks Church.

Isn't this faster than joining the navy and learning slowly?

"In that case, I won't force it anymore."

"If you are interested in the future, the Navy always welcomes you to join."

Karen looked bitter, but she managed to keep herself calm and remain friendly to Lowen.

Even if we cannot recruit such a strong neutral person with unlimited potential, we must maintain a good attitude.

Karen was not too upset, as he had a backup plan.
