"The person who might have been my mother left me only a knife"

""Knife?" Koshiro suddenly got excited,"What knife? Let me see it!"

Tashigi was startled by Koshiro's sudden excitement, but soon calmed down and handed Sayo Shigure to Koshiro.

After Koshiro took the knife and looked at it, he became more and more excited, and his eyes looking at Tashigi were full of love and guilt.

"That's right, it's Xiaoye Shigure. This is the knife I made for your mother."

"Our mother?!" Kuina and Tashigi were finally shocked.

And Rogge secretly paid attention to the word"creating’！

""Father, are you saying that Tashigi is really my biological sister?" Kuina asked.

Koshiro looked at Kuina, was silent for a moment and said,"Yes, your mother and I had to separate for some reasons back then.……"

But at this point, Koshiro was unwilling to continue, as if he had something to hide.

"What is it? Why have I never seen my mother? Why did my mother die at the hands of a pirate?!" Kuina asked excitedly, her tone seemed to blame Koshiro for not protecting her mother.

Tashigi also wanted to blame Koshiro, but she hesitated, as if she couldn't accept her biological father so quickly.

Koshiro didn't answer Kuina, but looked at Roger.

"Rogue, between the World Government's orders and Kuina, which one would you choose?"

"World Government?" Roger was puzzled as to why Koshiro suddenly asked this question.

"Answer." Koshiro asked seriously, just like when he taught Kuina when she was a child.

"Kuina!"

Roger said without hesitation. To Roger, the World Government had no meaning at all. It just existed, but it was not something Roger obeyed.

"What about your Justice and Kuina?"

"……My justice is a powerful justice, so my justice and Kuina's are not in conflict. Master, what you want to say is the stance, right? If it is the stance of the navy, then it is also to choose Kuina. I just want to be a marshal in the navy, not that I admire this profession so much in my heart."Rogge said after hesitating.

Rogge's answer was ambiguous, but in fact he did not answer Koshiro's question at all, and the answer to refuse to answer was: I choose my own justice!

Rogge has never been a person who can't walk when seeing a woman, nor is he a person who is willing to be bound by a woman's emotions. He also believes that a strong person is a person who wants both a career and a woman! If he only has one of the two, it means that he is not strong enough.

Koshiro stared at Rogge in silence for a long time. He was not satisfied with Rogge's answer as a father, but he agreed with it as a man, because a man who chooses a woman and gives up his career will only appear to be very weak!

Suddenly, a burst of energy emanated from Koshiro's body, covering the entire island.

"This power is Observation Haki!" Roger was shocked,"I was right, Master is indeed a strong man, at least judging from this Observation Haki, Master is not weaker than Rayleigh."

Compared to Roger's shocked reaction, Kuina and Tashigi did not sense the fluctuation of this power, and thought that Koshiro was dissatisfied with Roger.

""Father, it's enough for Roger to have me in his heart. Please don't make it difficult for him, okay?" Kuina said.

Koshiro smiled knowingly and put away his observation Haki, and said,"You haven't even gotten married yet, but you're already turning your elbow outward?"

Kuina blushed again and didn't dare to speak.

""Okay, I won't tease you anymore. Come in with me."

Koshiro said as he turned and walked into the house. Rogge and the other two followed him and finally came to the inner room.

There were several monitoring telephone bugs on the table and chairs in the inner room, which attracted Rogge's attention. It was obvious that his appearance had caused the Navy or the World Government to reveal something to Koshiro.

""Master, I am sorry to trouble you." Roger apologized.

Koshiro shook his head to indicate that it was okay.

"Back in Wano Country, our Shimotsuki clan's Ushimaru clan and the Yasuie clan helped the Kozuki clan to regain the position of shogun usurped by Kurozumi Orochi, but failed due to Kaido's intervention.

In the end, our other branches of the Shimotsuki clan were also hunted down by Kurozumi Orochi.

The head of the family at that time, my brother Kosaburo, felt that Wano Country was no longer suitable for us to survive, so we left Wano Country with our entire clan, but on the way...

I was hunted down by the World Government!

"

When Kosaburo said this, his eyes were full of hatred, which was completely different from his usual gentleness.

"Unlike other members of the Shimotsuki family who are good at swordsmanship, our family is better at forging.

I don't know whether the World Government was attracted by our forging ability or wanted to avenge the fact that Shimotsuki Ryoma cut down the Celestial Dragons' ship, or both.

In short, they hunted us all the way from the New World to Paradise, and from Paradise to the Four Seas...

Many of our clansmen died on the way.

Finally, we brothers were forced to decide to flee in different places to avoid the World Government's pursuit, but unfortunately, I was found by the World Government.

……"

"After a great battle, the enemy had more people than us, and we got separated. Xiaoyu also separated from me with the two children. Later, after I killed the enemy, I went to look for Xiaoyu, but I only found the retainer holding Kuina. Xiaoyu and the other child were nowhere to be found.……"

After saying this, Koshiro looked at Dashiki, who also understood that the separated child was himself, and the dead woman was Xiaoyu, his mother.

"Father……"This was the first time Tashigi called out to Koshiro like this.

"Child." Koshiro showed his gentle side again and held Tashigi in his arms,"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have let your mother leave without permission."

Tashigi shook her head and gritted her teeth and said,"This is all the fault of the World Government! It's the fault of the Celestial Dragons!"

Rogge looked at Tashigi in shock, and thought to himself,"She's turning to the light so soon? Tashigi won't follow her father to join the Revolutionary Army in the future, right?"

But Rogge thought of Koshiro's idle appearance on weekdays, and he shouldn't be a front-line cadre of the Revolutionary Army. At most, he would do logistics, train disciples, and build weapons!

"Well, it is indeed the world government's fault……"After mumbling a few words and hesitating for a while, Koshiro finally said as if he had made up his mind,"Tashigi, Kuina, and Rogge, are you willing to join the Revolutionary Army?!" ps: Today's first chapter, I want six free flowers every day.
