Chapter 20: Righteousness and Dreams

"I see..."

"Ace, Luffy, Fang Xing, we must go to sea and leave this country to enjoy freedom! I want to learn how to sail and write down what I have seen and heard to pass it on, so that we can become stronger and become pirates!"

"Hee-hee-hee-hee..." responded to the cheerful laughter of Luffy and Ace.

Seeing this scene with his own eyes, Fang Xing was also a little moved.

This is different from the feeling you see on the screen, and even Fang Xing is a little moved.

As in the original plot, Ace declares that he will become a pirate and wants the world to recognize him, while Luffy says "I..." and then argues over who will be the captain.

"Dreams?" Fang Xing pondered for a moment.

What is his dream, to be a pirate like Luffy and them?

Truth be told, he wasn't that eager to be a pirate. His thoughts about pirates are not so good. After all, there are only a few pirates like Luffy, even if the famous Whitebeard, are his subordinates all good pirates?

Not necessarily.

Chaos, greed, and violence are the most tangible adjectives for pirates.

Whether it's a persecuted man like Nami, or an ambitious pirate like Klockdahl or Doflamingo.

In the era of pirates, it brought more destruction.

Many people become pirates in the name of pursuing their dreams, but when they go to sea, they change their dreams and forget to chase them, and they are lost by money and power, and become brutal pirates. Then wanton aggression and destruction of a peaceful life.

Although the aristocracy has long since decayed and the world government has rusted, there is no doubt that the Age of the Pirates was the trigger for this process.

If, without the era of the Sea Pirates, at least this superficial peace could be maintained.

Luffy brought the topic to Fang Xing, interrupting his thoughts.

"Fang Xing, come to my ship."

Suddenly put forward such an opinion, Fang Xing couldn't react a little.

"Uhhhh

"Luffy, you guy is so cunning! … Come to my boat. Sabo said.

"No, he has to come to my ship." Ace Road.

"I didn't say I was going to be a pirate."

Although some of them couldn't react, they still understood what Luffy meant, they wanted him to be a pirate with them, and followed his inner thoughts, Fang Xing said.

It was just a bland sentence, and as soon as it came out of its mouth, the scene fell silent.

The breeze blew, and only the three people except Fang Xing were stunned.

"What!" Luffy was surprised. "Why aren't you a pirate?"

Fang Xing didn't know how to explain it clearly, so he was silent, thinking about how to explain it so that Luffy could accept it.

Sabo saw Fang Xing's embarrassment, and came out to explain: "I haven't asked you what your dream is." ”

He was still understandable that Fang Xing didn't want to be a pirate, not everyone was eager to pursue adventures at sea, just like he was born into a nobleman but was disgusted by life there.

Fang Xing thought for a while, sorted out his thoughts, and then said a little shyly: "I want to sail freely, and then guard justice and act as a hero." ”

After all, if you want to be a hero, this kind of dream, it's okay to think about it, and it's still quite shy to say it.

As soon as the words came out, Luffy looked at him with a little wrong look.

You can sail freely on the sea, and you can protect justice!

Doesn't this make it clear that it is the Navy?

"Fang Xing, I didn't expect you to be a navy! Oops... I can't beat you now, isn't it dangerous..!" Luffy looked at Fang Xing, a little more vigilant in his eyes.

"Uhhh When did I say I was going to be in the Navy? ”

The navy is under the orders of the world government, and in this decadent age, the world government has long been rotten. To put it bluntly, the naval government is nothing more than the most powerful pirates.

Therefore, he has no intention of becoming a navy.

"Not the Navy...? Then you say freedom of navigation and protection of justice. Sabo said in surprise, he also thought that Fang Xing was going to be a navy.

"If you want to sail freely and protect justice, you have to be a navy?" Fang Xing asked strangely.

"Isn't that a matter of course? Now there are either navies or pirates, and there are caravans, but the caravans must sail in the prescribed routes, and cannot sail freely as you say, as you say, as it seems to be to prevent the movement of the revolutionary army. ”

"So now if you want to sail freely in the sea, you can only be a navy or a pirate, you just said that you are not going to be a pirate, and you want to sail freely, of course I thought you wanted to be a navy." Saab explained.

I see, Fang Xing nodded in understanding, while Luffy looked incomprehensible, the reason why he came to that conclusion before was because his grandfather was a naval hero, and Fang Xing was quite a hero.

"Then join me and sail freely in the seas." Ace took the lead after Sabo finished speaking.

"Let's decide in the future, I don't know what to do now." Square Street.

As for his future plans, he is actually quite confused, just following someone on the path of a pirate, or spending the rest of his life on an island.

Knocking out Broujham, the strongest leader on the island at this stage, made him feel like he had nothing to do.

"Despicable, Ace!" Sabo said to Ace, who shouted first.

Sabo explained so much to Fang Xing, in fact, he just wanted Fang Xing to join his fleet, but he didn't expect Ace to join him first after he finished speaking. After seeing Ace's rejection, he didn't prepare to ask Fang Xing, because the answer was yes.

Ace turned around and pulled out a bottle of wine from the grass behind him, took out four bowls at the same time, and placed them on top of the stump, then opened the bottle and poured the wine into the bowl.

"Well, it's true that the future will be talked about in the future, but one day we will part ways."

"It was stolen from Dadan." Luffy said, pointing to the wine on the stump.

"You know what? Perhaps in the future we will not be companions of the same ship, but the bond between us will be maintained by brotherhood, no matter where we do anything, this bond will never be broken. ”

With hope, the four raised their glasses, and then raised their glasses to each other.

"From today onwards, we are brothers!"

The bowls of wine intertwined in the center and collided, and the wine spilled slightly, shining in the scorching sun.

"Oh~!" The four of them shouted and poured the wine down.

The wine was just light wine, compared to water, there might be a trace of more alcohol, and there was no feeling when he drank it, but Fang Xing's cheeks looked red.

It is because of the restlessness in the heart, and the fiery heart cannot be calmed.

"Is this the feeling of brothers?" Fang Xing muttered silently.
