I’m Not Interested in Devil Fruits: 743 If I do this kind of thing, then I won’t be a pirate! (7200 words)
[Chapter serial series・Deck 11 from the world・"Loyal Eagle Pig"]
[A small fishing village has sprung up on the ruins of the Igor Kingdom, which was destroyed by pirates after civil strife. The fishermen were busy and looked up at the sky. A giant eagle flew by with its wings spread and landed in front of a small grave on the hillside outside the village. They gently placed a latest newspaper in front of the monument. The eagle's head turned into a pig's head. Next to the arch monument, people sit and rest on the spot. If any wild beast dares to approach, it will rush to drive it away or eat it. ]
---------------------------------
The Shampoo Islands at night seem to be shrouded in dense shadows of bubbles that reflect the cold moonlight, like electricity, dew, and a dream.
On the shore, people gathered around the huge fire.
This is a lively banquet.
It is a celebration of the present reunion.
——Marco and others; Luffy, Ace, Sabo, Drago, Tulip and others; Rayleigh, Shanks and others; Lynch, Robin, Hancock and others; of course Cavendish, Marianne, Anne and Amoline sat in a circle around the fire.
At the same time, it is also to mourn the passing of Whitebeard, Izo, and Jinping.
The King of Souls, the person with the ability of the Underworld Fruit, plays the violin with an explosive skull. The sound of the violin is sometimes lively, sometimes sad, sometimes sentimental, sometimes progressive, sometimes cheerful...
Marco, Joz and other members who have been with Whitebeard for more than ten or decades, listening to the sound of the piano unknowingly remembered the time they had taken adventures with their father, laughed together, and had banquets together. The father they respected from the bottom of their hearts was really gone. At future banquets, they could no longer see him drinking happily while being scolded by the nurse. They could no longer hear his hearty and hearty laughter, and they couldn't help but shed tears.
Ace poured a glass of wine for each brother.
"Dad, please continue to watch over us in Huangquan from now on. I won't embarrass your reputation!"
Everyone raised their wine glasses together, using the etiquette of Oden's hometown, the sworn brother with white beard, as if everyone had gathered together, poured down half the bowl of wine for the deceased beluga-like man, and drank the remaining half.
In this melody humming like a singer from the underworld, Labu, the island whale on the shore, had his big eyes flashing with tears. In his blurry vision, the afro-headed skeleton playing the piano transformed back into the flesh and blood he once had. At that time, he was accompanied by Captain Yankee and other members of the Rumba Pirates, including cellists, drummers, and even his companions who picked up two broken wooden boards and could sing and sing in harmony with Brooke's music. …And now, Brooke is a skeleton, playing solo.
Rabb cried sadly.
"Drink!"
Zoro and Lynch were drinking wine from a bottle together; he was laughing and hugging Robin, blushing and whispering something, and peeking at Hancock from time to time, which annoyed Hancock. Katsuya seemed to be blushing, Sundar covered his mouth and snickered, and was glared at by Hancock; Usopp and Chopper were frowning and studying how to let Merry have a taste of drinks; Franky chatted and laughed with Rayleigh and Shanks, the former pirate crew members who had sailed on the Oro Jackson built by his master, Mr. Tom; he walked among the people serving food and pouring wine, busy but smiling. Very happy Sanji...
Captain Yankee and everyone from the former Lombard Pirates were also filled in by these people. Afro Brooke is not alone in playing the violin.
"Roar~~!!"
The island whale raised its head and whistled softly in the night. Brooke shook his head and played the violin, laughing and said: "What's wrong, Rab? Are you sad? Are you happy? Do you want to cry? Do you want to laugh?"
Brooke has done this similar behavior of missing his past companions countless times during his decades of wandering the ghost ship.
Brook has played similar tunes countless times, and each time is different.
But this time the sound of the piano has the same goal as countless other times. Complex and intense emotions come and go in the music, ups and downs. In the end, the melody of the piano gradually becomes simple and pure. This is a story. A pirate song.
"Then cry! Laugh!"
The firelight swayed on the face of the skeleton, Brooke cried happily, laughed wildly, and pulled the bow on the trembling strings vigorously, "This is music! This is the banquet! This is~~ Pirate! ”
"Yo **** ho ho~~ Yo **** ho ho~~!"
As Brook played the piano, Luffy bit his bones, beat the beat with his hands and feet, and laughed and sang.
Even Marianne was infected by the lively atmosphere. She picked up a paintbrush and painted it out of thin air in the night. A ball of "dream colorful, let's have a party" colors flowed in the air, arousing the emotions of everyone present.
If you want to laugh, just laugh. If you want to cry, just have a good cry.
After learning that Whitebeard died, Ace no longer cried silently for the first time, but howled loudly, with tears and snot flowing all over his face, his strong body trembling, "Am I really the disaster star? My father died before I was born, my mother died when I was born, and now even the white-bearded daddy is gone. It’s all my fault, it’s all my fault! What do you mean by being the freest person? Just being willful! ”
Shanks, Rayleigh, Marco and others looked shocked, and Sabo and Luffy also had tears in their eyes. However, no one stopped Ace, allowing him to vent his inner emotions.
"Should I be born? Of course! If you don't live well, how can you live up to them!!!"
Ace beat his head, sometimes crying, sometimes laughing, his mood gradually stabilized.
When he noticed everyone's gaze, his face with freckles suddenly turned red.
"Hahahaha!"
Everyone laughed, "You are crying so ugly, Ace! Drink! Drink!"
Some people cried and some laughed.
Riding the sea breeze ~ riding the waves ~?
On the other side of the tide, the sunset is also singing~?
The song of the bird that draws a circle in the sky~?
Luffy was laughing and joking, and regardless of whether he was familiar with them or not, he led the Whitebeard Pirates to sing and dance.
Looking at her son who looked like the liveliest cub at the party, Tulip smiled and leaned against Dorag without saying a word.
We are pirates, running on the sea~?
Use the waves as a pillow and the boat as a bed~?
The skull is on the sail and flag~?
Yo **** ho **** ~?
"Hehehe..."
Lynch, Robin, Hancock, Franky, Reilly and other adults drank wine with smiles on their faces and watched the young people dance wildly.
If Sister Yi goes all out to impose sanctions at this time, maybe she can wipe out all the dangerous elements who threaten her?
Lin Qi shook his head with a smile, clinked the wine bottles with Zoro and Rayleigh beside him, and raised his head to drink.
In the next period of time, I have to digest the accumulated energy **** for my own use, and may have to move locations frequently to avoid being harassed by the peeping tom Sister Yi...
Just when Lin Qi was thinking about whether he had something or not, Robin, who was leaning next to him with a slightly drunken face, moved towards him affectionately, stretched out his sweet tongue and red lips, and kissed the wine dripping on his neck. liquid.
Robin kissed all the way to the corner of Lynch's mouth, put his arms around Lynch's neck, and kissed them passionately.
Lin Qi himself was not one to care about other people's opinions, so he held Robin in his arms and responded.
Nami and Sanda were stunned.
"You guys..." Hancock blushed, and with a sudden "ah" sound, he was pulled away by Robin.
In a daze, somehow, it became a threesome, with each other circling each other's necks. You came and I went, she came and she went, and the love was endless for a while.
Sanji, who came over with a sober drink, was petrified in an instant. Jealousy almost made him separated from his body. However, seeing the previously gloomy and depressed Sister Robin so happy, he felt a burst of joy from the bottom of his heart. He laughed. Applauded and cheered: "Oh!"
Usopp and the others also whistled and started making noises, and Luffy laughed and joined in the fun.
Merry and Chopper are both extra-human species. They don’t feel shy and just join in the fun together.
"Hahaha, it looks more like a pirate!" Xia Qi smiled happily like a mother who saw a happy ending.
The one who also had the mentality of a mother was Tulip. She leaned on Dolag and smiled happily as she watched the two "daughters" kissing Lin Qi happily.
Brooke's piano sound has become more lively and lively, and it is like a wedding march, rippling with the sanctity of love.
In this flowing music and strong atmosphere, everyone said goodbye to the past, cherished the present, and looked at the future with a smile.
Yo **** ho **** ~ Yo **** ho **** ho ~?
You will never see the rising sun again~?
Why are you depressed~Tomorrow is also a moonlit night~?
Everyone will turn into a skeleton anyway~ Let’s talk about some happy things~?
Yo **** ho **** ~ Yo **** ho **** ho ~?
At this moment, Shanks, an old man in his thirties, walked up to him happily. He screamed and laughed strangely without the aura of the Four Emperors beside the campfire, clapped his hands and sang, singing this sea song. The Thief's Song brings Binx's wine to you.
Captain Roger.
White beard!
Mr. Oden!
My friends who are far away, where are you?
It must still be there! Somewhere in the underworld!
Can I see it? The pirate flag flying here...
"Shanks!"
Luffy laughed. Across the lively crowd, Shanks looked at the straw hat on Luffy's head and couldn't help but smile. There was a whistle around him. It was **** Bu and Usopp. The two men were teasing and joking.
"Luffy! Are you going to return it to the captain?" Lucky Lu laughed wildly, "Are you going to return it now?"
"No!" Luffy grinned, "I will give it back to you handsomely after I defeat Shanks again!"
"Really? That's difficult!" Shanks laughed.
"It doesn't matter!" Luffy said cheerfully, "If it's not difficult, just do it! Hehehe..."
Shanks smiled brightly, then made a face at Luffy and stuck out his tongue: "If you want to defeat me, keep practicing for another fifty years! Hahaha..."
"Saab, continue."
Suddenly, Dorag threw a wine bottle, which was caught by Sabo.
He smiled, raised his hand towards Dorag, and then walked over to Luffy and Ace carrying the bottle.
Each of the three brothers placed a wine glass in front of them. Sabo unscrewed the bottle and filled it up one after another.
"Ace, you're okay, it's really great..." Sabo tightened the bottle, lowered his head and almost choked, "If...I really can't forgive myself..."
The three wine glasses clinked together.
"Aren't we brothers?" Ace and Luffy both laughed. Sabo drank with his head thrown back.
"If you want to maintain the Whitebeard Pirates, who will be the captain?"
Cavendish drank wine with a noble temperament and asked the Whitebeard Pirates with a smile, "Is he the one who ate the Quake Fruit? I heard that Marco doesn't have a phoenix anymore. He is the one with the highest bounty! Haha, even if there is no Whitebeard, at least they still have the Shock Fruit. It’s really fun.” He just mentioned it casually, but he didn’t expect it. Marco shook his head.
Not only Marco, but also Jozi, Bista and others all looked at Ace in unison.
"Me?" Ace pointed at himself, "Do you want me to be the captain?"
"You are an awakened natural ability user!" The remaining members of the white group wiped their eyes and laughed, "Besides, even if you are not the captain, Ace, the navy will not let you go!"
"You..." Ace looked at the captains.
Marco smiled and said: "Having a person with great ambitions as a captain will be more energetic. My father must have liked Ace to fight for the title of Pirate King before he was alive, but none of us had this idea."
"I am the one who wants to become the Pirate King!"
Over there, Luffy, who was arm-in-arm with Sabo and Shanks, caught the key words like a radar, stretched out his rubber head and yelled in dissatisfaction.
Jozi said in a deep voice: "Without you, Ace, the rest of us would not be able to assemble a complete pirate group after losing our father."
"It is you who continue to gather us under this flag, so only you can be the captain." Bista twirled his slightly upturned beard and said with a smile, "This is the title of 'Captain' That’s the point.”
Ace was moved, but Cavendish flew into a rage, smashed his glass and jumped up and down shouting: "Are you kidding me! I don't agree!"
"Who are you? You don't agree!" Everyone in the White Group, including Sauron and others, couldn't help but be speechless.
Anne and Amorine pulled their captain back in embarrassment, but Cavendish pointed at Marco with a blushing face and yelled at Ace: "His bounty is higher than yours! Of course! The one with the highest bounty is qualified to be a pirate captain! Otherwise...otherwise...it would be very shameless! ! ! ! ”
"You are drunk." Marianne's little fist squeezed Cavendish's cheek so hard that it deformed.
"You think you have no face... I thought you were indignant, but it turns out you feel the same way..." Usopp and others had a dark line. Everyone knows that although Cavendish is a member of the Handsome Pirates Captain, but his bounty is not as high as that of Marianne, the "visionary" on their ship.
Marco smiled elegantly, waved his hand and said: "The level of the bounty is the Navy's evaluation. It can be used as a joke. Why should we mix the Navy's perspective with our own internal affairs?" Come in?"
"We all agree and are convinced that Ace is the captain. Then only he can do it." Jozi said solemnly, "This has nothing to do with the strength of the ability or the level of the bounty."
Bista twirled his beard and said with a smile: "Ais is the awakened natural element, Jozi, he is definitely better than you now."
"Hahaha!"
Everyone burst into laughter again. Rayleigh watched Ace, after careful consideration, not wanting to betray the trust of Marco, Jozi, Bista and the rest of the White Group, finally nodded to everyone seriously and raised his hand. He raised his wine glass to everyone.
"The new Whitebeard Pirates are established!"
A group of pirates who were reborn from the ashes drank the cup together, holding up the empty bowl and shouting at the bubbles in the sky.
Now Ace can definitely move forward with the new Whitebeard Pirates... Pluto Rayleigh smiled casually, feeling very happy in his heart, and drank up the glass. The ship of the old era did not sink, but a group of young pirates will be replaced on the ship to take over our flag... Roger, this is the purpose of your last laugh, right? From now on, all those who go to sea for the great secret treasure and the title of Pirate King will be the continuation of our Roger Pirates in the new era...
"It would be great to live longer!" Rayleigh suddenly shouted, startling Xia Qi.
"Yo **** ho ho, that's it, Mr. Reilly." Brooke screamed from the side, and Reilly burst into laughter.
"Have a party! Have a party!"
Luffy was happily jumping around, eating, drinking, and playing. Suddenly, Cavendish, who couldn't bear it anymore, pointed at Luffy angrily, "Stop joking around! I'm not kidding! And you Straw Hat boy!"
"Huh? Me?" Luffy was stunned.
Tulip, Dorag, Sabo, Ace, Rayleigh, Shanks... pairs of eyes looked over one after another. Cavendish is not a coward. The naturally arrogant prince is not a hypocrite. He pointed at Luffy and shouted: "No matter what, the captain's bounty is lower than the crew's. This is too strange! Okay, even if Regardless of the bounty, from a strength perspective, Ace may not be weaker than Marco and the others, but what about your side?"
The expressions of Zoro, Nami, Sanji, Franky, Usopp and others remained unchanged. Who on the ship has not considered this issue - well, maybe except Luffy?
It's not up to Cavendish to point it out today, others will sneer at it in the future.
Nami looked at Luffy a little worriedly, while Zoro looked indifferent. He and Luffy had met in the same situation in the tavern on Gaya Island. He remembered Luffy's words at that time. reaction.
"Lynch is the number one pirate with a bounty of 5 billion! He personally killed General Akainu and Marshal Sengoku in the Battle of the Summit! And what about you?" Cavendish became more and more excited as he talked, " What about the rest of your pirate group? Of course, I don’t mean to look down on you—I was just like you at that time, and I couldn’t afford to participate in a top-level battle at the general level, and even getting close would be life-threatening!”
"But the reality is here!
"You and Lynch, and even Nico Robin, the son of the devil, are not pirates at the same level at all!"
Cavendish pointed at Lynch and Robin and said impassionedly, "You and them are just like the sky and the sea, people from two worlds! It doesn't matter if we get along for a short time, but you really want to let Lynch and her Are you really embarrassed about your captain? From now on, when people see you, they will only see Lynch and Nico Robin, not you, the so-called captain! '!
"It doesn't matter what bounty you say, don't lie to yourself!!!"
Cavendish's voice echoed in the night, a gust of wind shook the flames of the bonfire, and the originally lively banquet suddenly fell into silence.
Shanks, Rayleigh, Tulip, Drago, Sabo... Zoro, Nami, Sanji, Usopp... Ace, Marco... Lynch, Robin, Hancock, Sundar... Everyone turned their attention to the focus of the controversy, Straw Hat Boy, Monkey D. Luffy. His bounty is 550 million, while Lynch's bounty is 5 billion.
Hancock agreed with his face. Although she and Sundar would not hate Tulip's son, they did not think that Luffy's ship was qualified for Lynch and Robin to stand on it.
"Cabbage, do you want me to... drive my partners off the boat just because they are better than me?"
Luffy patted his straw hat and put it on his head. His voice was originally calm, but it contained a force. Finally, he gritted his teeth and roared, "If I do such a thing, then I would rather never take the risk again." ! Never be a pirate again! ”
The powerful words echoed in everyone’s ears.
Everyone can tell that Straw Hat Boy's intention is not to kidnap Lynch and Robin, saying that if you don't continue to be my partners, I will quit.
This guy is serious. This is how he believes that if he behaves like a scumbag and abandons his companions because he is jealous of their strength, then he is not worthy of going to sea to be a pirate from the beginning.
"Yes, I can't beat Lynch now, nor can I beat Robin! This is very frustrating!"
Luffy crossed his arms, looking serious but also confused, "But isn't it something to be happy about when our partners are so powerful? The navy or others only stared at Lynch or Robin and forgot about me. Is it the captain? Who cares about them! After all, I am the captain!"
"Who asked you about One Piece... Really..." Nami held her forehead helplessly as if she breathed a sigh of relief.
Zoro and Sanji smiled. They remembered that in Gaia's tavern, they faced the pirate gangsters who did not believe in the existence of Sky Island and laughed at their dreams. Luffy stopped them from fighting back and allowed these people to fight back. The experience of punching and kicking...
Let them laugh at us, we went to sea for our dreams!
"Looking like a man now." Tulip said with a smile.
"There are many people who can tolerate weak companions," Dorag said with a smile on his rigid and serious face, "but there are really not many people who can tolerate strong companions."
"One Piece?!"
Over there, Cavendish was retorted by Luffy, his face turned red, and he shouted angrily, "That is the greatest pirate who can rule the entire sea! If there is a next Pirate King, that is The strongest pirate right now is Lin Qicai, right? Among the pirates here, the bounty is higher than yours, and they are stronger than you. I can hit a lot of them with just a bottle, okay? Onions?"
"I don't want to rule the sea! And I don't want to be a great person!" Luffy retorted.
"Who said anything about you? I'm talking about the Pirate King!" Cavendish was so angry that he would have taken action if Marian and the other three hadn't pulled him away.
"The freest person in this sea is the Pirate King!" Luffy said with a smile.
Obviously not everyone agrees with his words. Even those in the Whitebeard Pirates can't help but be dumbfounded. What kind of brain circuit does Ace's younger brother have?
The corners of Rayleigh's mouth curled up, and he silently made eye contact with Shanks over there. Shanks smiled and made a scissor hand gesture to him, seeming to be proud of his own eyes. Mr. Reilly, let me just say that this guy is very interesting, right?
Zoro, Sanji, Nami, and Usopp all smiled. If Luffy was a strong captain in the traditional sense, they might not have boarded the ship from the beginning.
That kind of pirate, to put it bluntly, isn't it just to be a subordinate of others, to work for others, to suffer hardships, to accept rule and dominance, isn't it tiring? Wouldn't it be nice to play freely by yourself?
Meili's eyes were shining brightly, and she looked at Luffy and smiled stupidly. If the atmosphere on the ship hadn't been like this, it wouldn't have been conceived...
"Don't make any mistake, this noble pirate."
Ace and Sabo pressed their fists on Luffy's head.
"Huh?" Cavendish was stunned.
"When we were kids, the three of us all wanted to be pirates." Ace and Sabo laughed.
Ace turned his fist and said angrily: "Luffy has never defeated us once in training, but he wants us to be his crew! Isn't he funny?"
Sabo sighed: "Do you think Luffy is jealous of a partner who is stronger than him? You are wrong."
"That's so wrong." Ace smiled.
Cavendish was stunned for a moment after being told this. Finally he looked at Luffy, who was being punched on the head by his two brothers and looked dissatisfied. He then turned to look at Lynch, who was hugging him from left to right and smiling as if nothing had happened. .
Others also looked at Lynch.
Luffy's attitude is clear and he will never abandon his companions.
What about Lynch?
Where's Robin?
Robin was easy to handle. She looked at Lynch and smiled: "Wherever you go, I will go. Don't even think about leaving me behind."
In fact, Robin thought that Lynch would be like before this time, when it came to the "JoJo Pirates" matter, he would blame the trouble on her on the grounds that "the captain is Kujo Xuren" Come and have a headache.
However, this time Lynch patted her hand and stood up on his own.
Lin Qi, who is 2.49 meters tall, walked towards Luffy, who was 1.72 meters tall. "In the battle at the top, your grandfather's punch should have made you realize how big the world is, right? Luffy, you The strength of everyone, including Zoro, Nami, Sanji... your strength is far from enough to brave the new world behind you."
"I will become stronger!" Luffy said with a smile, "And I will surpass you!"
This is a battle at the top of the comics. Although he is so weak, he still stands beside Whitebeard as if nothing has happened, and even chokes on him without politeness.
Lin Qi laughed dumbly, but quickly said seriously: "If you are too weak, it would be meaningless if I or Robin had to rescue you every time. It is better to do what Cavendish said, Forget it, change the name to JOJO Pirates - but I think without you Luffy, Zoro and Nami don't want to continue to be pirates. After all, they never wanted to be pirates from the beginning. It’s not interesting.”
"So if you want to keep going, I have a proposal," Lynch raised a finger, "Of course, you can decide for yourself whether you accept it or not.
"This ship will be parked here for the next year. You, Zoro, Chopper, Nami, Sanji, Usopp, Franky, Brooke, everyone will spend one year , become as strong as possible, at least so powerful that you don’t need Robin and me..."
"You're so embarrassed!"
Luffy suddenly interrupted, raised his fists and shouted, "Get on the boat!!!"
