"Keya's housekeeper is very problematic. You should monitor this guy more. If anything happens to Keya or housekeeper Crowe, call me."
Naruto said as he patted Usopp's shoulder and turned to Hina and said.
"Hina, get a Den Den Mushi and give it to this guy."
"Yes, Rear Admiral Naruto."
Hina trotted back to the Marine ship, took a Den Den Mushi, and hurriedly rushed back again. With Naruto's identity as a Rear Admiral, he could get as many Den Den Mushi as he wanted, and a single line Den Den Mushi could be used throughout East Blue.
Ten minutes later, Hina appeared and handed the two palm-sized Den Den Mushi to Usopp. Usopp looked at it curiously as he had never seen this kind of thing before.
Hina explained how to use it, and Usopp listened with excitement. Only then did he know that Naruto really cared about Keya, so he didn't have any scruples and saluted like a Marine.
"I will complete the task, Rear Admiral."
Seeing that Usopp was a Marine, Naruto laughed and patted Usopp's shoulder and said.
"That's more like it. Looking at you, are you interested in being a Marine?"
"This, in fact, I can't be a Marine, I ~ ~ ~"
"Stop, if you say one more word, I will beat you."
Naruto's face sank. When Usopp was about to start pretending again, he raised his fist. His expression didn't look like he was joking.
Usopp had cold sweat on his forehead and quickly covered his mouth with one hand. Although he wanted to be a pirate, he didn't dare to offend Naruto, a Marine. The other party could cut off a tree. He was ten thousand times more powerful than him.
"Remember my request, and if anything happens to Keya, you will die."
Naruto said lightly with a serious expression. The latter immediately nodded frantically, looking nervous like never before.
Without talking much, Naruto turned and left with Hina and his Marine subordinates to his ship.
Raising the sails, pulling up the anchor, changing direction, heading straight for Shields Town, Marine 153rd Branch.
Sailing on the sea, One Piece's world is very big. The distance between the two islands is very wide. Even East Blue is very wide. The distance can only be calculated in the sea.
The ship's necessities are a little scarce. Going to the Marine branch, not only to see Luffy and the others, Naruto also wants to replenish his supplies.
The food on the ship was made by the Marines. The taste could only be said to be ordinary. Eating the ordinary steak, Naruto sometimes wondered if he should find a chef. Otherwise, there would be no delicious food on the sea and it would be very boring.

In less than 3 days, they arrived at the small island of the Marine branch "Shields Town".
As they had been notified in advance, a group of soldiers lined up on the island, respectfully waiting for Naruto's arrival. Even the axe-armed Menka didn't dare to neglect him.
As the ship slowly approached, Naruto's eyes fell on Monka. He was a very burly uncle, with an iron chin and round eyes, and an expression that said 'you owe me money'.
"Rear Admiral Naruto, I don't know what you're doing here?"
Monka stared straight at Naruto, raising his head without any respect.
"What does this have to do with you?"
Walking straight, Naruto looked around the town. The situation in the town was very bad. Under the suppression of Menka, the people looked at the Marines with fear. Many children were pulled to hide in the house.
They were timidly looking at the group of people.
Monka didn't expect Naruto to despise him so much. He was a little angry. He didn't care about the level. He was the boss here, and Naruto had a high status. He didn't get angry on the spot, but the way he walked with his head up and chest out was a little arrogant.
While looking at the frightened expressions of the villagers around him, Naruto looked forward and asked.
"I don't know if you have heard of a guy named Luffy?"
"No." Monka, who was standing behind Naruto, answered without any emotion.
Originally, Naruto came to find Luffy. He didn't expect Luffy to not come. He was still a little regretful. As for Menka, he didn't put him in his eyes.
Naruto, who was wearing a Major Admiral's coat, walked in the front, followed by Monka and his son Beru Meibai. This fancy-looking guy with fluffy hair looked at Naruto with some fear. After all, his father couldn't afford to offend a Major Admiral, let alone him.
When Naruto was thinking about when Luffy would arrive, a little girl was accidentally pushed by the crowd and rushed forward a few steps.
Her face fell to the ground. Her delicate little face was covered with dust. Her eyes were filled with tears. She wanted to cry.
The place where she fell was not far from Naruto. At this time, the surrounding villagers didn't dare to breathe. Naruto could clearly see the pity in their eyes. It seemed that these people were afraid that Naruto would blame the little girl. Although they were afraid, no one helped.
Just as Naruto was about to help the little girl up, the arrogant Bello ran forward and kicked the little girl.
"Don't you see the Rear Admiral here? Whose child is this? Take her back for me."
Bello looked around with an arrogant expression. He was really a domineering guy.
The little girl's eyes were wet. She held back her tears and didn't cry. She struggled to get up and was met with Naruto's smile.
"Little girl, are you okay?"
Her little face was covered with dust, but she looked at Naruto with a timid look. She didn't dare to answer.
"Rear Admiral, the villagers here are a little strange. Please don't have too much contact with them. Right, what are you doing? Hurry up and take this guy away."
Bello pointed at several marines and roared angrily, ordering them.
Naruto slowly stood up and slapped Bello without thinking. With a loud bang, Bello's whole body spun 360 degrees and fell to the ground.
