The Most Wasteful Fruit Among Pirates

"You can't do this cannon,"

"Nonsense, it's obviously gunpowder...you try this!"

In front of the warehouse under the bridge between Dock No. 5 and Dock No. 6, two boys were fiddling with dangerous weapons on a pile of waste.

Gladius likes to play cannons, and Fram likes to make cannons. The two are simply close friends, and they quickly play together. The calm young man Bingshan couldn't help but sigh.

"Flame, I don't know how to help..."

"Tahahaha, what does it matter? A man should do what he likes."

Under the huge waterway, in the semi-outdoor dock, Mr. Tom, the burly murloc boat builder who built the boat, laughed.

"And with the help of everyone in the Don Quixote family, the progress of the shipbuilding will not be delayed."

For Mr. Tom's words, Bingshan had no choice but to nod in recognition.

Devil fruit ability, even if it is not used for fighting, production is a dimensionality reduction blow to ordinary people.

But this world is too 'free', there is a small fight in three days, and a big fight in five days. Even the "food" devil fruit ability users have to work hard to develop in the direction of fighting, otherwise they don't know how they died.

Therefore, although everyone in the Don Quixote family is not a shipbuilder, the ability users themselves have advantages that ordinary people do not have.

Pika can control the rocks, and can easily build a dock of any shape; Pike can sneak into the dock, or even any position in the hull; and Jorah's artistic fruit makes various magical props; Dover's line lifts various kind of material...

In addition, all the people present are "Wulks", and it is easy to carry a few tons at will, and the cutting material can be accurate to the millimeter level, which is more than enough to strike.

It can be said that with the help of so many capable people, the speed of shipbuilding has increased by at least ten times!

In just a few days, the prototype of the ship has appeared.

And Rossi who is "fishing":

fluttering~ fluttering~~

Standing on the huge waterway between Dock No. 5 and Dock No. 6, Rossi looked up at the large number of newspaper delivery birds flying in the sky, squinted his eyes, and smelled something unusual from the huge number.

Could it be...

"Bring me a newspaper."

Hold up a Bailey and immediately attract the attention of a paper bird. The clever bird landed, took out a newspaper from the cloth bag hanging on its body, and prepared to give Rossi some change——

? !

"Keep the change, please,"

brush,

With a flash of a figure, Rossi jumped down from the giant waterway and walked towards the family gathered in the 'Tom's Studio'.

"Everyone, there is an explosive news."

"How explosive can it be?"

Torrebol, who was "waxing" the material with slime, turned around angrily. The dignified family cadre, who has already "famed" in the great route, is actually doing carpentry here...

"It would make the whole world tremble—"

Rossi raised the newspaper in his hand. Half of the page was a black-haired man wearing a pirate skull cap, a dark red captain's coat, a mustache, and a domineering smile.

"Someone reached the final island, circled the world, and was crowned the One Piece."

One Piece: Gold Do Roger! ! ! "

"The king of the sea finally conquers everything?" The next step is...》

The headline of the newspaper, with bold and long text, crudely indicated the theme of this issue of news.

"One Piece??!!"

"what--"

Boom,

Bang,

Everyone who was working loosened their hands, and all kinds of wood and alloy parts fell down with a clatter, and by the way, they hit many guys' toes.

"Ahhh~~"

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

"Are you kidding, it must be a fake newspaper—"

In an instant, everyone didn't care about the half-built new boat, and they all rushed over. Even the burly shipbuilder Mr. Tom couldn't help but put down the tools in his hand.

Roger... you finally made your dream come true.

So, have you found the answer 'the world' is waiting for?

"show me,"

"No way, someone really became the 'One Piece'..."

"Damn it, even if it's the king of pirates, it should be Dover—"

Surrounded by the crowd, Rossi shook the newspaper in his hand and chose to read it directly:

"As we all know, after defeating the 'Golden Lion', Gold Do Roger is only one step away from the throne of One Piece..."

"It is rumored that the Roger Pirates have successively visited the 'Whitebeard Pirates', the 'BIGMOM Pirates', etc., and then sailed to the end of the great route..."

"Finally, today: The Roger Pirates returned in triumph and successfully arrived at 'Ralph Drew'!"

"The reporter of this newspaper interviewed many legendary pirates such as 'Whitebeard Pirates' and 'BIGMOM Pirates'. They all expressed their admiration and anger for Roger's crowning as One Piece...but they did not deny it... "

"Come on, the overlord of the sea has finally appeared!!!"

"So, what will be the king's next move?"

"Whether to make all the legendary pirates surrender, or to establish an unprecedented 'country', or... This newspaper will report the follow-up for everyone as soon as possible, please wait and see!"

···

"It's unbelievable, it's actually true..."

The newspaper also included photos and interviews of the 'Whitebeard Pirates', 'BIGMOM Pirates', etc. With the endorsement of these legendary pirates, the information that the Roger Pirates became the 'One Piece' is already certain!

Even if 99.9999% of the world has never seen "Ralph Drew", or even heard of it before, it does not prevent most people from recognizing that Roger is "One Piece" 'fact.

Of course, there are also those stubborn people who say "As long as I haven't seen him land on the final island with my own eyes, Roger is not the One Piece", but that's just the noise of the tide of the times.

"Rosie, Dover, our plans for the future..."

Torrebol looked worried. Originally, the Don Quixote family planned to gain a firm foothold on this route, and then extend their power to the New World.

While expanding the sphere of influence, while improving individual strength.

But now a "One Piece" suddenly appeared, disrupting the family's plan.

Even if this Roger becomes entangled with all the legendary pirates tomorrow, flattening the Navy Headquarters, and attacking the holy land of Mary Gioia, Torrebol will not be surprised.

Rather, if it were him... or any ambitious pirate, he would do the same!

"Don't panic,"

In response, Rossi handed the newspaper to Dover directly and flatly.

"No matter how other people are, how the world changes: the strength of oneself is the capital of foothold!"

"As long as we are strong enough, the tide of the times will never overwhelm us. ——If we are strong enough, it is not impossible to influence the times."

"So, we have to work harder."

···

Since meeting Rossi, everyone has been urged to exercise every day, and now it has formed a habit.

In addition to training, fighting against powerful enemies will also greatly improve people: Diamanti who ate the "golden fruit" has mastered the "armed color domineering", and Pica, Pique and others have gradually found it. Domineering feeling.

I believe it won't be long before the entire Don Quixote family is double domineering.

At that time, you will have the confidence to face all difficulties!

As countless "newspaper delivery birds" flew by, the whole world was boiling for it——

One Piece!

The pirates who were once scattered in the sand finally appeared a 'king', and countless pirates rushed towards the great route. Expect their 'King' to lead them to do great things:

Whether it's plundering the sea, or going to war with the navy, or attacking the world government, or even...

Pull down the unshakable 'Dragon Man' for eight hundred years from the throne!

Not only the pirates, even many countries are ready to move.

A large number of 'generals', 'staff officers' and even 'kings' lead the country's army to the sea, transforming themselves into 'pirates', ready to overthrow the 'world nobles' who are pressing on everyone!

At the same time, the names of "World Economic News" and its president "Big News" Morgans are also known.

In this shocking news feast, the "World Economic News" boldly interviewed legendary pirates such as "White Beard" and "Charlotte Lingling", adding a piece of evidence for the coronation of One Piece.

With this 'dongfeng', the circulation of 'World Economic News' has soared, and it has become a large and important newspaper on the sea!

Everyone is waiting for One Piece's next move and the report from the 'World Economic News'.

Excitement, anxiety, anxiety, anticipation...

but:

Time passed day by day, and Roger, who had become the "One Piece", disappeared. The Roger Pirates also fell apart quietly, leaving countless people confused, but everyone believed:

As the 'overlord' of the entire sea, Roger must be planning some shocking action!

————

South China Sea,

Batherilla Island.

This is an ordinary island, scattered with scattered buildings.

Most of the people living here are mainly engaged in farming, fishing and hunting. Although the days are ordinary, but fortunately, it is still calm.

boom boom boom

Amidst the rhythmic knock on the door, a crisp sound came from an ordinary house.

"Hold on,"

Ga,

The door was opened, and a woman with long pink hair, a flower decoration on her head, and freckles on her face, holding a spatula, said apologetically:

"Sorry, I'm preparing dinner—?!"

The next second, the woman froze.

"Lu Jiu, I'm back..."

Snapped,

Before the man outside the door finished speaking, he was interrupted by a woman who rushed up and hugged him fiercely.

Facing the slender hands tightly hugging him, the world's number one One Piece raised his arm capable of moving mountains and seas, and after hesitating several times:

Only then did he embrace the beauty in his arms, and turned thousands of words into one sentence:

"Sorry."

"Whoooooooo...Roger,"

"Roger, I thought I'd never see you again—"

Facing the crying woman leaning on his chest, wearing a white shirt, brown trousers, black messy hair, and a mustache, the man, like an ordinary fisherman, once again hugged his childhood sweetheart tightly in his arms.

"Sorry."

Pirates, free pirates.

But apart from those bachelors whose families have been destroyed, behind every pirate there are worried relatives and longing lovers...freedom also has a price.

Like a short poem in the mouth of a bard:

You are a hero and need ambition;

But what do you use to make up for the happiness you owe me?

Is love harder to forgive than hate—

"Sorry,"

In the room, the man stripped of all his glory, fame, and force knelt down on one knee to the woman in front of him, begging for forgiveness for the third time.

The former hometown of the two was in the East China Sea, but it was a pity that they were destroyed because they could not pay the heavenly gold of the "Tianlongren";

Later, the young man took the little girl to this peaceful island in the South China Sea to settle down, while he chose to go to sea.

This farewell lasted for more than ten years!

"No, Roger,"

"I never held a grudge against you."

The woman with long pink hair knelt down and stroked the face of the weathered man in front of her with her fingers.

"You know, I have always liked you like this: bravery, fearlessness, enthusiasm; pursuit of dreams, freedom, and companionship; although you have not come back for so many years, I know that you have never changed, just as my heart that loves you has never changed. Unchanged."

Facing the gentle and gentle woman in front of him, the overlord of the sea showed reluctance and struggle.

"But... I only have one year to live."

? !

"Even so, I still love you."

Facing the woman's firm gaze, Roger finally smiled, and the two of them hugged each other tightly, without saying a word.

——— PS: Regarding the relationship between Roger and Lu Jiu, I am talking nonsense.

After all... for Roger, who is about to die, it is really too much to just find a woman from the D family to leave offspring. Twenty years older.
