Chapter Eighty-Three: Arrival
The word "surrender" entered his ears, Tang En's pupils contracted slightly, and the hand holding the bowl also paused.
The room, also after these two words came out, fell into an eerie calm.
After a long time, Don suddenly put the raised bowl into his mouth, drank it in one gulp, and let out a long breath.
"Surrender?"
"Yes, turn yourself in, I surrender to you, to the Navy!"
Roger smiled, his words were full of lightness, and he seemed completely unaware of the heavy meaning contained in these two words.
"You should know that behind these two words, your results."
Donn sighed, his eyes fixed on Roger.
Even though he already knew what the other party would choose, when he sat face to face and heard what the other party said, his heart still trembled.
The face that has been tormented by vicissitudes and illness, and has been baptized by years of wind and frost is now mottled.
Yes, the other party has become the supreme king, but at the same time, he is already an old man who will die soon.
In a pair of eyes, there is no fear of death, only what can be seen is hidden in the depths, and it seems to be reluctant and apologetic about something.
Don just glanced at Roger, and he saw a lot in the other party's eyes, which made his emotions complicated.
"I'm going to die."
Calmly, with a smile, Roger slowly uttered these three words.
"I know my results, and I know very well that I am here because I saw them."
A complicated look appeared on Tang En's face, as if he was sad and regretful.
"Don't feel sorry for me, I'm here to find you this time, in addition to this matter, there is one more thing I want to ask you!"
Roger said with a smile, and when he said the second half of the sentence, there was a hint of seriousness and seriousness in his expression.
"Say, if I can help, I'll do my best!"
Tang En said solemnly.
Nodding, Roger was relieved by Donn's simplicity and commitment, and a smile appeared on his face.
"I want you to be able to take care of my wife and son."
Tang En's eyes froze, and he slowly exhaled: "You, why don't you go to Karp?" ”
Hearing this, Roger laughed.
"I just came from him."
"In the navy, the only one I can trust is the two of you, and Karp, although I also believe in him, but his temperament, in my heart, has always been a little unable to let go."
As he spoke, a trace of worry appeared on Roger's face.
"It's just you, Donn, I can't see through you, but I know you very well."
"I'm reassured of you."
On his face, a smile bloomed, and at this moment, Roger, in a trance, in Tang En's eyes, seemed to go against the current, becoming younger, more three-dimensional, and more vivid.
After a moment of silence, Don finally nodded.
"I promise you!"
As it turned out in the future, Karp didn't do a perfect job of protecting Roger's wife and children. And Donn, who is in a high position at the moment, can he do better? To be honest, he didn't have faith himself. However, with the position of a general and his own background, he also has some certainty.
Roger smiled, and he breathed a sigh of relief, as if he had let go of something big.
For the rest of the day, he ate and drank very happily, and from time to time he said some interesting things to Don, and the latter, from time to time, also made a noise, but more time, it was silent.
In the end, the meal was very clean, and Roger stretched out a lot.
"Tomorrow, you will send me to the Navy Headquarters!"
Donn's mouth moved, and then he asked, "Where do you want to leave this world from?" ”
"Rogue Town, that's my hometown."
With a flash of memory in his eyes, Roger said with a smile.
"It's been a long time since I've been back!"
Tang En nodded silently, everything did not seem to deviate from the original book at all.
As a result, it did not change, but in the process, he became the most direct contact, participating in the process that later generations became legends.
That night, Don sent a message to the headquarters and used a phone bug to connect.
"General of the Warring States, is the Marshal of the Air here?"
He was familiar with the sound of the other side of the conversation, and he heard the sound of the pages turning, obviously busy.
"Oh, Donn, what's the matter?"
Sengoku asked.
"I, arrested Roger."
After a pause, Don said in a deep voice.
The phone bug suddenly fell silent, silent, and after a few breaths, it was obvious that the phone bug seemed to collide somewhere, making a thumping sound.
"What? What did you just say? Repeat! ”
Sengoku said loudly, his tone excited.
"I arrested Roger, around the clock yesterday night."
Don said calmly.
"Roger!? Which Roger? ”
In his voice, he trembled a little, as if he was expecting it, but he couldn't believe it.
"Gortor Roger, One Piece Roger, Sengoku General, you don't have to doubt it this time."
Don En's voice was a little helpless, and he repeated it again in a deep voice.
"Is it really him?!"
Sengoku exclaimed, and then he asked quickly.
"How are you? Are there any injuries? Battles, where did they take place? ”
"Without any fighting, he came to me to turn himself in."
Don En Dao.
Sengoku was very surprised, and soon after, Sora came here quickly, and after carefully inquiring about the situation, he said in a deep voice.
"Always on your guard, Admiral Donn, quickly transfer Roger to the Admiral Headquarters."
"Whatever happens, remember that your own safety is paramount."
The empty words were heavy, and Don nodded in response.
The phone bug then hung up, and Roger stood behind Donn, smiling and outstretching his hands.
"Let's go."
Don was silent, and after a while, he took out a pair of shackles and leg shackles, and brought them for Roger himself.
"Are you ready?"
"What is there to prepare for such a thing?"
Roger laughed, and soon, his face was calm.
"If you have to ask, you can only say."
His mouth suddenly opened, and a strange smile appeared on his face.
"Maybe there's something to look forward to!"
Don nodded and walked ahead: "Then, let's go!" ”
The warship departed at nine o'clock in the morning, and in addition to Donn, a total of twenty-two naval soldiers were strictly guarded, and in the center of the deck was One Piece Roger.
Until this moment, the navies present still did not believe that Roger had turned himself in and was arrested by their admiral Don.
If this matter spreads, it will definitely be a big case that shocks the world.
Disbanded Roger's Pirates, One Piece, who had disappeared for a long time, appeared in front of everyone again, and he had already become a prisoner of the navy.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, Donn's warship hit the naval headquarters, Marin Vando.
At the port and shore, it was densely packed with warships, and a large number of navies were holding their breath at the moment, nervously preparing for battle.
Facing the noon sun, he stood in front of the square and saw the warship that entered the inner bay and slowly approached.
Don standing with his head held high, and One Piece Roger sitting cross-legged on the deck with a smile on his face!
In an instant, his pupils contracted, and his face was extremely serious.
Until this moment, he still couldn't believe that Roger, the king of the pirates, had really turned himself in!
