"The 'White Dragon' is your daughter, which means -"

Rosie's eyes changed, he couldn't imagine it, you guy, who was full of loyalty and honesty, thick eyebrows and big eyes, was still a 'minotaur warrior'?

"Uh..."

Reading Rosie's gaze, the burly old fisherman explained:

"Your Excellency may have misunderstood, Tani's mother is a barmaid, so..."

With the words of 'Bald' Anoke, Rosie also reacted.

It's no wonder that Rossi is a bit 'ignorant of human suffering', after all, the Don Quixote family has had their own territory from the beginning, although they are in the gray area. Women and the like, as long as there is a need, there will be no shortage.

But ordinary pirates are different,

Ordinary pirates drift on the sea all year round, and unless they are particularly strong, there is no possibility of a woman on board. If you want to vent your desires, you can only wait for the time to dock and look for opportunities.

Where there is demand, there is naturally buying and selling.

And Balph Tani is a pirate and a bar girl's child.

Whether it's Captain Black or the Bald Sea Monster, they're just Tani's mother's guests: they're one of them.

Many years ago,

A certain 'free port' in the North Sea,

There is a bar called 'Rusty Cup'.

It used to be a non-member nation, but it was breached by the pirates a long time ago, and after some rage, the pirates left behind in ruins.

Immediately afterward, a 'visionary' pirate captain took possession of the ruins, specializing in the pirates' business. With force and turrets, the pirates obeyed his 'rules', turned around magnificently, and proclaimed himself a baron.

And Tani,

It's the product of an 'accidental' escort girl in the bar.

In fact, Tani would not have come to this world at all, after all, with a big belly, she was doomed to be unable to continue to work with the wine girl.

Whether it was a momentary 'lake tu' or some other reason, Tani was finally born.

For as long as she can remember, Tani has been a free laborer at the bar, running errands and delivering food, and cleaning the floors: the people who come to this bar are pirates, and they are 'free' to draw knives when they don't agree, and the little girl is the cleaner.

Corpses and blood are like eating and drinking for three-year-old Tani.

'Please give way, I need to wipe the blood off your feet.' It's a little girl's routine.

The little girl has long been accustomed to the death of others; But she couldn't be indifferent to her own death. One day, the unexpected happened.

The two groups of pirates start fighting with just one look, and one of them is so defeated that the dog jumps over the wall and grabs Tani in an attempt to take him hostage.

However, for the red-eyed pirate, who cares about a bar handyman?

The sharp long knife whistled past the front of the neck, blood splattered on the little girl's face, and the ears all mutated roared, and everyone was frantically waving their weapons, killing or being killed by others!

The little girl, who had curled up in a ball, couldn't remember how she got out of the scuffle, and when she instinctively stumbled towards her mother, she was greeted by—

It's a rag stuffed by the indifferent wine girl,

Let her wipe the floor clean.

For a moment, the little girl froze in place.

That year, she was five years old;

Time passed, and one day, a tall man dressed in a captain's coat, with a skull tricorne, a long knife and a flintlock pistol at his waist, and long black hair scattered behind him, walked into the tavern.

'Captain Black' Balph Vincent!

The little girl didn't know the man, but the whole bar was whispering the name of 'Captain Black' that day, and the eyes that looked at the man were full of fear and respect.

And the pirate captain was very relieved, and that night, when he waved his hand and said, "I will pay for the whole consumption," the cheers of the people seemed to tear off the roof of the tavern.

Immediately afterwards, Captain Black and the bartender accompanied the barmaid to the trade area.

That night, the little girl had a dream: the burly and wealthy pirate captain in the dream was her father, who took her to the pirate ship full of glory and freedom... It's just a romantic fantasy though.

The next day, while the little girl was cleaning the tavern as usual, Captain Black came down from the upstairs guest room and walked straight to the little girl.

'Tell me your name, busy little thing. ’

The man is condescending, like a mountain covering the world.

'Tani,'

'Hmph, the name of a barmaid. ’

The man's words made the little girl shrug her shoulders, and the precocious little girl knew her fate very well: one day she would take over her mother's job and become a barmaid.

- So that's a fitting name.

You're starting to become as lovely as your mother, and that's not a good thing. ’

The man crouched down and glanced at the little girl's black hair.

In such a place, a pretty face would only invite danger. ’

As he spoke, Captain Black drew a dagger from under his coat, and let the little girl hold the unsightly sword, while teaching her the art of assassination:

'Make good use of this dagger, it can go through the gap in the ribs to the heart. Take out the people you hate, touch you, and stare at you, and you can practice with the back kitchen pig or something else. ’

'There is one more thing,—— hide it, the surprise is the best weapon for the weak!" ’

Immediately afterwards, the escort girl calmly said to the little girl: Captain Black is her father.

That year, she was seven years old;

Soon, the girl whose body began to develop was no longer the object that the wine lady and the tavern owner could call at will.

Especially when she learns from her 'mother' that she has an 'older brother' in the city, the girl decides to see the boy who has the same fate as herself.

"King Kong is not bad Dazhai Master"

It was a sturdy teenager who mingled with a group of orphans who were also parentless and lived stealing.

After seeing the 'sister' who came to the door, the boy happily accepted her, and also taught the girl his 'craft': stealing, stealing, intimidating, begging for mercy...

Soon, the two active siblings became the famous 'golden fingers' of this port.

But the happy times were always short-lived, and after a trip to 'work' with other companions, the girl's brother never returned.

You're just a fool who has no courage to fall into the trap. ’

Standing in the rat-infested sewers, the girl calmly poured the liquor on the corpse with a knife in her back.

'Your companion has been bought, and a merchant who has been stolen by us has paid for your life. Worth stealing the harvest ten times, hundreds of times. ’

After igniting the mangled corpse, the girl pulled out the dagger at her waist.

'I'm different from you, vigilant, lethal with one blow, and-'

Never trust anyone!

'Rao...

The dagger sank into the merchant's chest with ease, and his fat body fell on the expensive carpet, and no amount of money could buy him back.

As for the companion who betrayed her brother, she was put alive by the maiden into a sack: and in the sturdy sack were a group of rats that were so hungry that their eyes were red!

An hour later, all that was left of the betrayer were bloody bones and hair.

That year, she was ten years old;

Steal?

It's too simple;

That robbery?

It's kind of interesting;

After easily 'recruiting' a group of deadly children from the slums, the girl began to block the road and plunder, raiding and robbing houses. The sea is vast, but the land is where people live.

Soon, her power swelled to hundreds of people!

And her immature and cold little face also appeared on the Navy's wanted notice.

The girl didn't care, and neither did the orphans under his command who could hold old weapons as long as they had food and spirits, and who were screaming and killing.

It seems that their lives will go on like this until one day:

'Hey, Tani, your mother is dead. ’

On the street, the tavern owner stopped a young girl with a sword at her waist and a pearl necklace around her neck.

Just a few days ago, I was sick for a few months... I gotta say, you owe me money to take care of her. ’

The tavernkeeper's gaze fell on the necklace around the girl's neck, and of course, the long sword and flintlock pistol at the girl's waist allowed him to achieve his goals only through words.

Don't you want to bury her, and you don't want to see your mother exposed to the wilderness, do you?' ’

···

Mother?

The girl's cold eyes flashed with a trace of memory, and then:

'Whatever you want,'

The girl who left without hesitation didn't even turn her head to look at the tavernkeeper,

It's just a corpse, throw it into the sea, I don't care. ’

But

Speaking of 'Mother',

Perhaps, it's time to meet my father—

That year, she was twelve years old;

'I am your daughter: Balph Tani. ’

On the Black Reaper, the girl who sneaked into the cargo pulled out the long sword at her waist and was fearless in the face of the pirates who surrounded her.

According to the rules of the pirates, anyone can come and fight me: I want to have a place on this ship. ’

However, the tall man in the captain's coat just waved his hand indifferently,

Drop her down. ’

？！

Why–

Poof,

The girl is thrown into the sea, and the icy waters drown her while washing away the last vestiges of her fantasies!

It's too far from the shore to swim back.

The easiest way to do this is to inhale water into your lungs for a few minutes... No, a few tens of seconds will be free.

But the girl didn't give up, but chased straight towards the departing pirate ship! In the vast sea, only ships can survive, even if it is a ridiculous thing to chase ships with manpower, she did not give up.

'Don't think! ’

'I survived from my mother's belly, from the rusty cup tavern, from the encirclement of the army... I can live forever, even fate will not kill me! ’

Swimming frantically to chase the pirate ship for a day and a night, when the sun appeared on the sea level the next day, the girl was already stiff, dazed, and numb to let the waves push the waves up and down on the sea.

Cold, dark... Just when the girl thought she was finally going to be with the 'fool' brother, a palm full of burn scars fell and grabbed her.

After a burst of clouds, the girl landed on the deck,

At the same time, a familiar dagger was thrust into her swollen hand.

'My boat is full,'

Standing in the sun, the 'black captain' turned his back to the maiden,

'If you want a position, you get it. ’

The swollen girl staggered to her feet, her black messy hair covering her face, revealing only a pair of cold eyes, which made the murderous pirates on the deck take a step back subconsciously.

A slow pirate was immediately 'highlighted'!

Before the panicked pirate could draw his weapon, a cold passed through his ribs and sank into his heart with ease.

That year, she was thirteen years old;

'Isn't that going to work?' ’

'The famous Black Captain, that's all he can do? ’

The girl covered in blood stood on the deck, and under the flying black hair, there was a pair of golden vertical children.

And in front of her, the 'Black Captain' Balff Vincent, who was half-kneeling on the deck.

The long sword in his hand had been broken in two, and his body was covered with cold wounds, even if he had initially mastered the 'Armed Color Domineering', he could withstand the power of the 'Phantom Beast Species'.

'Ahem, Devil Fruit ability, second mate Buddy...

That's right, I killed it. ’

The slender girl, who simply wore a white shirt and black trousers, and a red belt around her waist, proudly raised her chin.

He wants to save this Devil Fruit for you to eat, but that's not going to happen. ’

'This is the spoils of my grabbing, and it is mine; Whoever stands in my way, I will kill him!" ’

After speaking, the girl's cold eyes fell on the seriously injured 'Black Captain'.

'Loyal Buddy must be lonely down there, so go down and stay with him, father.' ’

That year, she was fifteen years old!

————

"However, Tani's father is not an old captain."

On the Jackdaw Flamingo, the burly old fisherman touched his bald head.

"Actually... I'm also brunette, and the moment I saw Tani, I recognized her as my daughter. Because she's almost exactly the same as the eldest daughter I ever lost! ”

It was the bald old fisherman who saved up the money to buy a dagger and a quick knife to 'roll in love', and it was also the bald old fisherman who stood up to give the girl a chance.

For him, it is enough to silently guard his 'daughter'.

Otherwise, with his strength, not to mention the 'White Dragon' Balf Tani at that time, even the previous 'Black Captain' Balf Vincent was not his opponent!

"I see,"

Rosie, who was draped in a black feather coat, nodded,

I have to say that this 'Balph Tani' is the real pirate!

Ruthless, ruthless, cautious, amazingly talented, never give up... If it weren't for bad luck, he met 'Red Inu' Sakasky early, and he would definitely become a hero.

"Hmmm..."

While Rossi touched his chin and thought, Torrebol next to him anxiously dissuaded:

"Hey, hey, Rosie!"

"We've just defeated the agents of the World Government, but you're not so inflated that you think you'll be able to break into the city, will you?"

"Rosie, don't be impulsive."

Even Dover, who was leaning back in a chair with one hand on his temple, spoke.

Advancing into the city, there are no less than dozens of hundreds of millions of sea thieves imprisoned! With such a terrifying number of powerhouses, I haven't heard of anyone being able to break through the defenses of Advance City for eight hundred years, even Rosie will never be able to!

"I know,"

How terrifying Advance City is, Rosie naturally knows all too well.

Magellan

Poisonous Fruit Ability,

He can run all over the ground with two 'Four Emperor Regiments' alone, and he can kill one Imperial Regiment in seconds with a mouthful of thick phlegm!

No matter what bizarre abilities you have, what tricolor top domineering, it's impossible for a creature not to breathe.

If it's an open environment, you can still play a dozen. But the prison is such a narrow environment: in the future, Luffy broke into Advance City, and Blackbeard took the opportunity to release many of the top powerhouses in the sixth layer: Barrett, Red Earl, Wald···

So many strong men failed to beat Magellan to death!

Even if Roger and Whitebeard are replaced, they will still have a headache when they meet Magellan in Advance City.

But what others don't know is that soon, 'Golden Lion' Shiki will rush to the naval headquarters and go crazy, and will be beaten to the Advance City by the Karp Sengoku to eat prison food.

And the resolute golden lion cut off his legs, got rid of the chains of the Hailou Stone, and relied on the mobility of the 'Fluttering Fruit' to become the first prisoner to escape in the history of the Advance City!

If you take the opportunity to sneak in, it is not impossible to save people.

PS: Balph Tani, from the game "Heroes of Might and Magic 4" Pirate Campaign: "Daughter of the Sea" protagonist, a pirate among real pirates.

Magellan's strength is undoubtedly at the top level. Especially in the prison environment,—— it's just a loss to appear early, and if he appears again, he must be a double-domineering top powerhouse.

Just like the sand crocodile whose bounty has soared to 1.9 billion now, it is all a combat power bug of a long-form comic.
