Chapter 134: Gorme D. Roger
The sun, the Grim Reaper
The moon, the world
Originally, the sun symbolized "life force" and was arguably the best card in Grand Arcana, but it was reversed
At this moment, juxtaposed with the moon has another meaning
The sun is yang, and the moon is yin
This yin and yang juxtapose and fall on a person, leaving only the interpretation of gender
The sun and moon themselves are interpreted in the opposite sense
The sun symbolizes life, but on the contrary it is death, and the luck is extremely poor, and through the god of death under it, it can be explained that the sun is completely sealed all the way
The moon symbolizes unease, but on the contrary, it is a good situation, the original confusion, restlessness, vacillation, lies, all turned into adversity, and the world under it is the most legendary card in the Great Arcana, because it symbolizes dreams come true, perfection, success, eternity
"So..."
The old woman's finger bones lightly tapped the table, and a strange expression appeared on her face
"Is this girl in a good life?!"
...
And no wonder
No matter how much the old woman guessed, she couldn't guess the fact that Kirby was originally a man, but because of the protection of a fire elf, she forcibly opened another way, which seemed to be something that ordinary people couldn't even think about
The old woman quietly put away the five tarot cards, skillfully shuffled them into the library, and before she could take a sip of wine, the bell on the door rang again
"It's been a lively day..."
It was Luffy
This guy has been wandering around this street for most of the day, and he has not found the execution table, but as soon as Kirby walks on his front foot, he walks into this shop on his back foot
Luffy sat down at the bar with a big grin and slapped his big hand
"Boss, have a glass of ale!"
"Underage little ones can't drink..."
The old woman pursed her lips, slowly moved to the bar, took out a bottle of orange juice everywhere, and poured a full glass
"Also, I don't have any ale here, do I want orange juice?"
"Yes!"
Luffy grinned, picked up the orange juice and drank it all, walking all the way, he was indeed thirsty
"Hey, you know what?"
The old woman looked at Luffy's face and suddenly quipped
"You're sitting where One Piece once sits, huh?"
"It's really fake!"
Luffy licked his lips with a look of surprise on his face
"One more drink!"
"Of course it's true!"
The old woman rolled her eyes and looked nostalgic
"If you want to talk about Roger, he gave the giant killer a second in the first place!"
"Gore D. Roger?"
The old woman's mouth was furrowed, and Luffy took the opportunity to look at the skull on the table
"Wow!
Kirby didn't care about it at the time, but now it seems that this skull is indeed too big, and in the middle of the skull, a clear knife mark can be seen, which should be caused by some sharp weapon piercing the center of the eyebrows
"Hmph, do you see, this guy has killed hundreds of pirates on his own!"
The old woman looked at the skull, as if recalling the days when the giants who were making trouble outside the tavern were killed by a group of pirates, but they were finished up by Roger, who happened to pass by
The most hateful thing is that Roger didn't bring any money at the time, saying that he could use the giant's head as collateral to exchange it for a million Baileys
At that time, the old woman was still a young and beautiful proprietor, how dare she touch this guy, she was thrown into the storage room by her own man, and she was put there for decades
Until the day Roger became famous, there was only this white bone left
Speaking of which, it's kind of commemorative
"That's it, Roger stabbed her head with a single sword!"
The old woman held her hands high
"It was a flash of lightning!"
"At that time, he was also a monster with a big knife, but the victory or defeat was split by a second!"
"Wow!" Luffy exaggeratedly widened his mouth, as if he had witnessed it with his own eyes
"Then again, he's also a notorious villain—" The old woman slowed down and held out a finger
"That's what he said before he died..."
"Roger, I salute you guy!"
"You're a pirate forever!"
The corners of the old woman's mouth were slightly upturned, and she looked proud, as if the protagonist in the story was herself
It was only at such times that the old woman of the tavern would not look lifeless
"Wow! That's so handsome!"
Luffy's eyes lit up, and he slapped his hands on the barstool
"Eric Down, known as the king, the world's number one sharpshooter, Silupas, and the bald monster Gunz brothers..."
The more she talked, the more excited she became, and she poured another glass of orange juice and drank it herself
"All of them are terrifying masters, but in front of Roger, they are as vulnerable as babies!"
"Wow, wow, wow!"
Luffy raised his fists high, goosebumps standing up all over his body
"Do you want to hear it?" said the old woman, showing her few teeth, and chewing on her cheeks
"Eun!
"Recently, there are fewer and fewer people willing to listen to this..."Looking at Luffy's excited face, the old woman pursed her lips with a wry smile
"Alright, alright, tell me about it!"
"Don't worry," the old woman hiccuped and shook the wine glass in her hand silently
"Lao Tzu has time to tell you this. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”
"In those days... Oh, no, and now, Roger is the only man who has no fear of the great voyage..."
"At that time, none of the ships that were swallowed up by the great voyage could survive, after all, it was such an unknown sea, everyone was afraid of it, and even for a long, long time, no one dared to approach it for a while, for fear that if it was swallowed in, it would never come out again..."
"But he said he was going for a walk there!"
"Hahaha!" said the old woman and laughed
"I still remember the surprised look on my man's face at the time, I've never seen a drinker scare him like that..."
"But it's this man, he actually said to leave, and the next day there was no one..."
"He bought almost all the rum, and of course, he exchanged it for this. ”
The old woman shrugged her shoulders indifferently, they naturally knew that what Roger said was not a lie, after all, a million Baileys were definitely enough to pay for the wine
But the man left it at home, so that he didn't sleep peacefully for days, and always felt that there was a ghost floating in the warehouse
"These are things in the past..."
The old woman pursed her lips and shook the rum in her hand
"Twenty-two years ago today, Roger has died on the execution table, and he can't die anymore..."
The old woman lowered her head and couldn't see her expression
"From that day on, there were two people who liked to flaunt their prowess and call themselves pirates, and the era of pirates began..."
"But in fact, until now, this town is full of cowards and rubbish!"
The old woman's wine glass was heavily placed on the table, and a few drops of wine were swayed
