January 1500, 12 in the Circular Calendar.

On Batelila Island in the South China Sea, under a cherry blossom tree, Roger and Whitebeard were sitting opposite each other, drinking.

"Have you decided? Whitebeard." Roger raised the wine bowl and raised his mustache and asked.

"It's decided." Whitebeard replied.

"Actually, Rocks' strategy is right. The starry sky is different from the sea. The power gap between the strong and the weak is even greater. Especially in the central star field you described, the demons and the dragons are fighting in a mess, which is particularly dangerous. ." Roger drank half of the bowl of wine and spilled the other half into the distance.

There, there are five tombstones erected.

They are the companions who died in Sword Fanxing.

"I know." Whitebeard said: "It is good for them to let Longbread and the others stay in the Eastern Universe Sea or return to Qinghai. After all, even the few of us who entered the Central Star Territory had to accept the advice of the Hairless Queen Kailin. shelter.

Only by moving forward, taking the initiative to downsize, absorbing powerful companions from each planet, and growing can we go further.

But this is not what I want. The current Rocks Pirates are getting stronger for the sake of getting stronger, and they no longer have the original atmosphere.After this battle, I will ask Captain Rocks to quit and form my own adventure group...even if it keeps me in the Eastern Space Sea! "

He laughed heartily: "There are tens of thousands of life planets in the Eastern Universe Sea. We can't finish them in our lifetime. It's enough."

But wouldn’t it be a pity for men like us not to go to the center of the universe and see the strongest person in the starry sky?Roger looked at Whitebeard and toasted him with another bowl of wine.

"What do you want? Whitebeard."

Whitebeard drank a full bowl, his eyes were a little distant and deep, and he said: "Family."

Roger was startled and laughed.

After drinking with Whitebeard until late at night, Roger returned home with a red face, but he was no longer heroic, with a rare guilty look on his expression.

In the brightly lit cabin, a tall and beautiful woman with wavy golden hair was waiting for Roger's return.

Portcas D. Lujiu, Roger's confidante whom he met in his early years of adventure at sea, the two have long been privately engaged for life. She has been waiting for Roger during his 16 years of adventure in the stars.

After Roger came back, the two almost got married in a flash marriage. As a physical king, Roger was in such good health that Lujiu became pregnant within two days. Her belly was already high and she was not even close to the due date. It's only been a few days.

She poured Roger a glass of water to sober up, and Roger took it hurriedly and said, "I'll do it myself, I'll do it myself, Lujiu, sit down quickly."

Lu Jiu smiled and said: "Roger, you were not a polite man before."

Roger smiled unnaturally: "Ah, haha, really? This is not..."

"Are you leaving?" Lu Jiu asked, "After facing the incoming demon clan?"

Roger fell silent for a moment.

"I can tell, Roger. If it weren't for the prophecy of the demon clan's attack and the special training given to you by His Majesty the King of the World, you might have been unable to hold back and leave again a few months ago."

Lujiu said: "Your heart belongs to adventure, not to family. It doesn't matter, I also like you as a hero, not as an ordinary person who takes care of my children every day.

Go in peace of mind, I will take good care of the child, but how much... stay for a while longer, at least until the child is one month old? "

Roger looked at Lujiu, and a thousand words finally came together into one sentence: "Well, I'm sorry."

He was touched by Whitebeard's words, and for a time he really wanted to stay in Qinghai and the Eastern Universe Sea like Whitebeard. Whitebeard just wanted a family, but he really had a family.

But different personalities, yearning and pursuit of the Central Star Territory ultimately prevented him from making the same choice, and also prevented him from being a qualified husband and father...

……

"Responsibility! Responsibility! Do you understand what responsibility and responsibility are?!" At the same time, Garp was also educating the dragon about love for the nth time.

"You are a navy, not one of those adventurers. What you need to do is to ensure the safety of our Qinghai! But what have you done?!

As soon as you enter the starry sky, you lose contact all year round. Even I, a father, can only see you in the newspaper?Do you feel honored?

Rescue some half-demon tribe?Yes, they are all innocent children. Saving them is fulfilling our justice, but what do you want to do when you specifically select half-demon children to save? ! "

There was a slight wind blowing in front of the dragon, blocking all Garp's spittles and stars. He lay on the ground and leaned back helplessly and said: "Calm down, father, don't you think that the chaos between the dragons and the demons in the starry sky is the source of chaos? Change? The half-demon tribe was rejected by both parties at the same time..."

"I know!" Garp interrupted: "But don't you know how capable you are? Even Mr. Figo hasn't done anything yet, and you can't even beat me. Are you looking for death?!"

"If you want to initiate change, you must have someone to lead it. Even if I die because of it, my will will be passed on..." Long argued.

"Spread it! Spread it!" Garp put on his slippers angrily: "You pass on our last name first! I tell you, if you don't give me a grandson, you can never enter the starry sky again!"

The king who lit the lamp dignifiedly was beaten with a slipper and ran away with his head in his arms.

……

"Come after me, come and catch me!"

At the recruit camp, Naika used her long legs to avoid being chased by her friends, and it was not tiring to run.

Suddenly feeling someone in front of her, she braked and stopped. She saw a strong old man holding a thermos cup and blinked.

"Grandpa Kinche?"

"Well, little Naika, run slowly." Jinche smiled at her, took a sip of tea, and walked away slowly like a stroll.

Life after retirement is so boring. He has dedicated his whole life to Impel Down and has no children. His only old friend is Figo. Seeing that Figo is still angry, he can only take a walk every day and come to the new barracks to see how energetic he is. Exuberant kids.

But what flashed in his mind at this time was what Figo said to him more than ten days ago.

Lao Jin, you are of average strength, and asking Ana to help you go back 20 years will not cost her a few years of her life. This favor is mine, and I will find a way to help her make up for this loss of life.

And if you were 20 years younger, you would have a great chance of lighting up the light through your body, which is equivalent to extending your life by eight or ninety years. Wouldn't it be wonderful to be able to go back to Impel Down and continue to shine?

You obviously have good intentions, but you have to say this.

It's really annoying.

So should I do this?

He was a little hesitant. Losing a few years of someone's life is not a small favor. Figo said it easily. If the life-extending treasure fruit were so easy to find, the stars would be full of old monsters, not to mention Mia waiting in the future. …

"Lord Jinqie!" A voice suddenly came from the front, interrupting Jinqie's thinking.

Jinqie looked at it, and in front of him was a fur tribe boy with jaguar fur, who was also a member of the recruit preparation class. His name seemed to be Pedro?

"What's the matter, kid?"

Pedro asked: "Master Jinqie, I think the generals at the Navy Headquarters are in a bit of a hurry recently, and they haven't seen the three generals for a long time, and the atmosphere in the entire Navy Headquarters is not right either.

Is something big going to break out?war?then what?us……"

A sharp kid, this kid is fit to guard a prison.Jin Che shook his head and said: "Those things have nothing to do with you now, child."

"But……"

"Everyone has a chance to appear on the stage, but it's not your turn yet." Jin Qie said sincerely: "Grow up with peace of mind."

Pedro paused for a moment, then realized something, then looked at Jin Che with admiration and said: "I know!"

Jinche smiled and continued walking away.

Does everyone have a chance to appear?He muttered what he said in his heart, where is the opportunity for me to appear on the stage after more than 100 years?

It would be a bit unwilling to just grow old and die like this...

……

"Hahahahaha, it's really exciting to think about it. We, our Qinghai, are about to have a grand debut ceremony in the starry sky!" In a certain tavern, a big fat man wearing only a golden whip said with a loud smile. .

"We are not the main force, Quinn. It is still unknown whether we will be needed to participate in the war."

"Hey, Jhin, you guy, can you stop throwing cold water on me all the time?" The fat man was dissatisfied.

"I'm just stating the facts."

"cut……"

The two of them bickered habitually.

……

In another tavern, Marco, Jozi and others were drinking happily.

"I don't know what happened to the red hair."

"That boy is smart and talented. He will be fine. Maybe we will have to rely on his care when we venture into the stars in the future."

"Hahaha, by the way, what do you think of Rocks' invitation?"

"Well... it would be too early to enter the central star field directly. Well, let's wait and see after this battle..."
