Incredible feeling.

Half a month of field work made Wren have such an experience.

Every day, he followed the old man Moose to the fields to dig irrigation channels, monotonous and boring, tiring and hard, almost unimaginable pain blessed the young young master of Wren.

In the first week, Ren, who came back every day, couldn't even take care of eating, so he collapsed on the bed and slept until dawn.

After that, Wren was surprised to find that his body seemed to have adapted to this level of suffering, and his work was not as hard as it had been at the beginning. Every day when I came back from a busy day, I ate the dishes made by Granny Lavra and Kailin, and the unprecedented deliciousness occupied Rennes's taste buds.

It's an incredible feeling......

Whether he was abandoned on the ice fields as a child, or in the jungle or on a warship, food was only ingested by Wren as a supplement to his body's needs. And now, Wren, who came back from hard work every day, actually tasted the feeling of enjoyment and happiness from the poor and sour dishes.

Not only that, Wren, who came back from a tired day, washed off his stinky sweat and slept contentedly with light food. The day after I woke up, I always felt a lot more relaxed.

He didn't understand why this was from his experience, but the beast's instincts told him that his power seemed to be on the rise.

The injuries accumulated from the battle with Unan have improved, and the experience and insights brought to Wren by successive battles with masters like Mihawk and Unan are not something that can be digested in a short time. This half-month of work relieved his somewhat overloaded body and brought everything together.

Now he is holding the soil in his hand, and he seems to be able to feel the breath of the earth.

In this way, the time of a month seems to pass in the blink of an eye.

Day after day, Wren and Moose shoveled the soil to make the channel, and after the completion of the wooden baffles were fixed on both sides of the channel, such hard and dirty work, it seemed that he had the intention of paying off the favor, and the young master Wren worked without complaint.

In the early morning, in the dim countryside, many farmers from other farms often see the busy but very tacit figure of the old and the young. At noon, the old woman, who was old but seemed to be rejuvenated, happily brought lunch to the two, and in the evening, the beautiful woman who had finished selling bread welcomed the return of the family with a warm breeze.

On the table, there is a dish that has not changed for a month, and the daunting wheat porridge and brown bread almost challenge the limits of the diners' tolerance. But the family didn't get tired of it at all, and immediately began a warm and bland dinner time.

Tykes's rude laughter recounts the day's harvest and anecdotes, and Kaylin tenderly echoes her husband's unfunny story. Lavra, an increasingly naughty old woman, was chuckling as she seemed to be looking forward to Halloween. Still with a meticulous expression, the old grandfather Moose calmly drank the wheat porridge one by one, but when the deep eyes that had already seen through the red dust fell on Wren's body, the corners of Moos's mouth involuntarily outlined a happy smile.

And Wren is destroying the shabby ingredients in front of him at the moment, but I'm afraid he won't know it, and even if he does, he won't admit it, at this time, he was infected by the warmth of this family, and he also curled the corners of his mouth, revealing a subtle smile.

A few days later, the irrigation canal was finally introduced. When Moose opened the barrier and let the water flow down, the clear water instantly filled the channel and introduced it into the field one by one!

"Great! I got it before the soil froze! In this way, there will be a good harvest next year! ”

Looking at the water flowing into the fields, Kaylin said happily, and then looked at Wren with a gentle gaze.

"It's all thanks to your help, kid."

Moose on the side nodded in agreement, thanks to the child's help. Otherwise, with his old bones, I am afraid that he will only be half done now, and then he will have to call Tykis back from the sea to help, but then the family's greatest fishing income will be cut off because of this.

Wren was stunned by this sudden, but rightfully thanked. Looking at the channel that he and the old man had dug with their own hands, now being filled with water and flowing into the field, for the first time in his life, Wren's heart was filled with a small sense of satisfaction and accomplishment.

"Wang! Woof! ”

The big fluffy yellow dog barked vigorously, rubbing his head around Wren's legs. Wren looked back at the family that had taken him in for a month, a little embarrassed, some of them were relieved, and some of them were a little lonely, with a variety of complicated feelings, he smiled heartily.

Squatting down and stroking the head of the big yellow dog, for the first time, he spoke to the family.

"I am, Wren."

Yes, there is no second time, because the day of parting has come.

Wren: He's a pirate.

The pirates' path is above the sea, not in this idyllic field. The wound has healed, and the kindness has been repaid. Even if there is a slight reminder of this place, Wren can't find a reason to stay here.

A person is born to live for a goal, and all his actions are for that goal. People who don't have that goal are like walking corpses, wasting every day meaninglessly. Therefore, for the sake of that [goal], Wren is leaving, and nothing can stop a manly man from going to sea!

If you ask why?

Because the Pirate Banner is calling me!

"Ahh

"Hmm."

In the yard at the end of the field, the old woman is skewering garlic with a comfortable smile, and the old man is meticulously sharpening the kitchen knife on the whetstone.

"Walk away without saying a word, what a bad boy."

"Hmm"

Tykes has gone to sea and is estimated to be back in three days, while Kaylin goes to the mayor to give him the month's taxes. Wren left the house without a word, and even the clothes of Tykais and Kailin's first son were folded and placed on the bed. Nothing was brought, nothing was taken away, as if there was no such person...... It's so lonely.

"The water tank was filled, the wood in the yard was chopped and put in the house, and the house was cleaned. That clumsy kid did it in one night...... What a good boy. ”

"Hmm."

"I said you, old man, everyone is gone, what are you still sharpening your knife for?"

“……”

The old woman's complaint made Moos's sharpening hand stop, and the old man, who was a little talkative, patted his somewhat cold hands, and finally stopped.

Moose knew that Wren was not the one who would stay here, and that the boy was definitely not an ordinary child who was killed. Although they are young, they are not from the same world. Therefore, he saw the meaning of Wren's departure. The child, who was not a picky eater except for fish, could only eat wheat porridge and brown bread here, but the family only ate fish once in a while.

In the early years, he had an old hen, but he was snatched away by the soldiers who came to the city to ask for taxes. There was only an old yellow dog and a goat left in the house, so Moose planned to kill the goat to make up for the young man, who was getting thinner and thinner. If you want to go to sea, you can't do it if you don't have the strength.

You know, this milk-producing goat is the second source of income for the Moose family! And the old man actually decided to kill the sheep to entertain Wren......

However, everyone is gone, so forget it. Moose and Lafra, who were already half-cut into the ground, did not covet a sumptuous meal that they had not seen for a long time, and this goat, which could still produce milk and sell it for a good price, should be left to their son and daughter-in-law to live.

Getting up from the bench, under the smiling gaze of Lafra, Moose, who had no expression, put down the sharp kitchen knife in his hand, and walked out of the yard with his hands in the distance.

Just as he saw that Wren was about to leave and was ready to kill the sheep, how could Wren not see what this stern but warm-hearted old man was going to do for him. I don't want to owe favors, and I don't want to make the future life of this family difficult because of my departure. The young man left in a hurry.

"What a ...... Good boy. ”

The midday rock face completely covered the town in shadow, and in the extremely low visibility, Moose saw nothing. The old man could only pray for the blessing of the traveler in the way of the locals' prayers.

The shadow of this town does not bring much waves in the life that the townspeople are accustomed to, but out of this shadow, Wren, who has been bathed in the sun for a long time, feels comfortable all over!

The captain's coat, which had been tattered from the battle, had been repaired by Kailin's hand and then patched with a pink peachheart. This captain's coat, which seemed to be very handsome and majestic, now has a sense of nondescript comic.

Wren, who didn't care about any of this, walked along the forest path leading to the harbor with a sack of black bread and a water bag on his back. He seemed to have grown a little taller, and his black hair had grown a little longer, and he had been mischievously braided by Old Lady Lafra, with a white bow attached to the end.

From time to time, there were birdsong sounds leisurely in the forest, and the sun warmed Wren's somewhat cold body and mind, and the indescribable comfort made Wren hum [Guidance of the Sea] with some happiness.

"Wang ......"

Just as he was a little selfless immersed in his unpleasant humming, a barking sound behind him stopped him.

The big yellow dog in Moose's family actually followed behind Wren.

"Bablous, why did you come along?"

Wren, who was a little startled, turned to look at the big yellow dog that liked to stick to himself, and reached out to rub it on his head.

"Wang ......"

The old dog, who was already very old, looked at Wren with his eyes that were almost covered by thick brows, and he barked weakly, but coughed up a mouthful of blood, and collapsed......

"Bablous?!"

Wren watched the old yellow dog fall in confusion, and just as he turned back, the thick smoke and blinding fire rising in the distance finally came into his eyes......

The midday rock wall completely covered the town in shadow, and people did not see it in extremely low visibility......

At the end of the coastline, a huge black shadow swallowed the horizon, and in the next moment-

Devoured Rednans!
