It's a pirate ship!

On the deck and in the cabin, there are big men with their upper bodies everywhere, they speak with accents from all over the place, loudly shouting and cheering, and everywhere is full of noisy atmosphere.

There is a luxurious room in the cabin, which is the captain's room.

At this time, there were two people sitting in the room, one of them was wearing the same upper body as the group of pirates outside, his chest was covered with scars, and his fierce temperament was revealed, while the other person was dressed in a neat black suit and dressed as a butler, but it was incompatible with the temperament of this pirate ship.

If the pirates outside saw the situation in the room, they would definitely be shocked, and the captain of the ship, who was usually arrogant and domineering and didn't care about anyone, stood in front of the butler respectfully at this time, and he didn't dare to make a sound.

However, if anyone knew that the butler was the steward of the Roman Empire, they would think that this was a normal thing.

At this time, the Roman Empire was still in the limelight, and even the future henchman Camelot had not yet become independent, and no one dared to touch his tiger whiskers.

"Alright, Mr. Captain, take it easy and don't get too nervous. The butler patted the captain on the shoulder and said.

Although the butler was laughing, the captain was not at all relaxed, and the beads of sweat on his forehead were pouring out.

"Don't worry, my lord, as long as you say a word, I will do anything for you. ”

"Don't be so nervous," the butler smiled with satisfaction when he saw the captain's nervousness, "I'm only going to the country of Alabastan to retrieve what our Roman Empire originally owned. ”

"Yes, yes. ”

"Alright, Mr. Captain, go out and say hello to your men. ”

"Yes. ”

The captain turned and walked out of the room, gently closed the door, turned his head to see that there was no one around, wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead, and then changed back to his previous invincible appearance.

"Little ones, cheer me up and march to the country of Alabastan!"

"Oh!"

Seeing the cheering appearance of the pirates, the captain smiled, he had coveted the prosperity of Alabastan for a long time.

―――――――――― dividing line that doesn't know what to say――――――――――

In the vast sea, the wind swept the dark clouds, and between the dark clouds and the sea, a pirate ship was like black lightning, speeding through.

The crew of the ship were very nervous, for fear that if one was not careful, the ship would capsize into the sea, and the storm of the great voyage was very terrible.

Finally, thanks to the efforts of the crew, the pirate ship survived the storm safely.

"Whew, it's really thrilling. One of the pirates said.

"yes, I almost died. The other pirate said.

"Speaking of which, thanks to Newgate, you kid, you're so strong. The captain patted a blonde youth on the shoulder.

It had been three months since he left the Kingdom of Alabastan, and in those three months, he had joined a group of pirates, and for the first time had a companion he could rely on and live and die with.

In the past three months, he has also changed a lot, with a few more knife wounds on his body and a white beard on his lips.

"Ah, it's the latest wanted warrant!" At that moment, a pirate grabbed a messenger bird and opened its package.

"Hey, Sia, how many times have I said that you have to pay for buying news. The captain went over and rescued the messenger bird from the pirate, took out a handful of Bailey and handed it to it, and the messenger bird took the money, clucked twice, flapped its wings and flew away.

"Boss, we're pirates, how can we give it money?" Sia quibbled.

"You kid・・・・・・" Captain gave Sia a blow, "Forget it, let's read the wanted notice first." ”

"Wow, Newgate, congratulations, you're on arrest!"

"Really, I'll see, Edward Newgate 'Whitebeard', there's a bounty of 40 million Bailey, yes, Newgate. ”

Newgate looked at his wanted warrant and smiled with satisfaction, the first bounty could reach 40 million, which was already very good.

"Well, there's another piece of news here," one pirate pulled out a newspaper from a pile of wanted notices, "there's something going on in a country called Alabastan." ”

"What?" Newgate immediately put down his wanted warrant as soon as he heard this, snatched the newspaper, and when he saw the contents of the newspaper, his pupils shrank suddenly, "How is this ・・・・・・ possible!"

Newgate froze, the newspaper in his hand sliding silently.

I saw that it read "A catastrophic earthquake occurred in Alabastan, and countless civilians were killed", and a photo was attached below, which was completely destroyed by the earthquake, Elaine's home・・・・・・

"What a useless guy," the butler from the Roman Empire became embarrassed at this time, and looked coldly at the pile of corpses in front of him, which were the corpses of the pirates of the pirate group at that time, "It's a pity that the 'Hades' has completely lost control, and now the 'Sea King' should be retrieved as soon as possible." ”

"Alas, the empire of the present day・・・・・・"

The butler sighed and turned to leave, and at his feet was the sealed ultra-ancient weapon "Hades" Giratina.

―――――――――― lost heart feels like it won't love anymore―――――――――――

"Newgate! Newgate, are you feeling better?" said the captain at the door, anxiously knocking on the door, and since Newgate had seen the newspaper that time, he had locked himself in the room, not saying a word, not even eating or drinking.

"Newgate, you can't do this, if you have any problems, you can tell everyone, we will help you solve them, we are partners. The captain's anxious voice still came from outside the door.

Newgate lay on the bed and looked at the ceiling, listening to the captain outside the door, I wanted family.

"Leave me alone. ”

The captain listened to Newgate's words and breathed a sigh of relief, it was a good thing to be able to answer.

Newgate was still lying quietly on the bed.

What if you say okay, wait for me for the rest of my life?

―――――――――― world that only Newgate doesn't know――――――――――

In a remote corner of Alabastan, a woman lies quietly in bed, she is still very young, but the disease has robbed her of her youth and life, and she knows that she will die soon.

At her bedside, quietly kneeling a teenager, it was her son.

"Oh, I'm dying・・・・・・"

"Mother, don't say that. ”

"I know my body best," the woman smiled, "I promised your father back then, cough, cough・・・・・・ ・・・・・・ will wait for him to ・・・・・・ a lifetime of ・・・・・・."

"Son, promise me not to resent your father・・・・・・" the woman said, looking at her son.

Her child nodded, and she saw it, finally closing her eyes in reassurance.

"Mother! Mother!" the young man saw this, and quickly jumped up and shook his mother, but she never woke up・・・・・・

"Newgate!"

In the room, the young man's resentful voice was heard.

――――――――――――― memories end――――――――――――――

Whitebeard looked at the sea quietly, and it took a long time to come back to his senses, and he smiled self-deprecatingly, people really like to remember the past when they are old.

But fortunately, I still have my own family, I have my children, and cherishing the present is the most important thing.
