[Pirates] Retired Knight's Logbook

【nineteen】

This is Andrea's first time raising a child.

After all, she was the adopted one before this, and she is only seventeen years old this year.

And she recalled her childhood... she felt like a standard aristocrat with a bunch of servants.

Andrea thought for a moment and decided to let nature take its course.

No matter what, she is definitely better than Garp anyway.

Ace was just born, and even though he was a 20-month-old baby right after birth, Andrea still couldn't just run around with the baby. She stayed on Badelila Island for a few months first.

Andrea was originally a delicate girl. Even though he was a swordsman and claimed to be a knight, he was still a noble after all... and then after entering this world, he straightened up.

There is no way. Firstly, there are no exquisite conditions in this world. Secondly, I am too out of tune with the people around me. Thirdly, I have become accustomed to the pressure of life.

In short, even if you originally wanted to raise your children exquisitely...the ideal is good, but the reality is another matter.

Fortunately, Ace is not a difficult child to support. And after three months, Andrea had built up strong self-confidence - it turns out that raising children is quite simple!

He is indeed my nephew. He was so obedient in Lujiu's belly, and he is also very obedient when he comes out. I sleep when I'm full, eat when I'm full, and rarely cry. ——Andrea held the child in her arms with a look of relief on her face.

Of course, she didn't know that the beginning of this period would be her most relaxing moment.

In short, I can’t stay on this island for too long.

After confirming that Ace was in good health and could withstand sea travel, Andrea made all the preparations to go to sea six months after Ace was born.

Before that, Garp also came over to see her once.

The two once again had a heated discussion about Ace's future education.

This time, Karp finally gave in.

"Okay, if you don't want to be a navy, then you shouldn't..." Garp also felt tired. This little sword demon girl was really more stubborn than he thought. "But there is one thing, he can never become a pirate. You understand this, right?" ?”

Karp's concerns are justified.

Because it's okay now, he can still hide it, Lujiu's efforts are not in vain, Ace's life experience has been concealed. But when Ace grows up...if he becomes a pirate, then once his identity as the son of the Pirate King is exposed, there will be a bloody storm.

The situation then will be beyond the control of one or two people. It's not something Ace himself can control.

Andrea knew this.

The education she received in the previous world made her more sensitive to this kind of thing than native people.

"I know." Andrea held Ace with one hand and saw the baby in her arms sleeping soundly in her arms. Her expression softened, "After I go to sea, I will declare to the public that this is my child."

This can actually be established.

Because Ace also has black hair like her, so his appearance is reasonable. As for who her father is... few women swimming in the sea and bounty hunters known as Sword Demons would have the guts to ask her such questions, and everyone would accept the fact that her father is unknown. , wouldn't care at all.

Even Garp didn't know that Andrea had no blood relationship with Lujiu. In order to help conceal Andrea's identity, Lujiu has always claimed to be a separated relative.

After all, in this world, this kind of drama of reunion after being separated for many years is very common.

Garp thinks Andrea’s choice is quite good.

Although he was also very interested in Ace, but with Ace's serious relatives here, and after dealing with Andrea and confirming that she was a serious character and understood the situation and reasons very well, he didn't feel that way. The other party will teach you a pirate, so you can rest assured.

Although Roger seems unreliable, his wife and sister-in-law are still very reliable.

Andrea also felt that she was reliable, so she took Ace on the trip.

Little Ace accepts the sea very well. Not only does he not cry, he also giggles.

Andrea has changed many habits since she came into this world, but one habit has not changed yet - that is spending money lavishly.

No way, I really had a lot of money before.

But it’s okay, the sea is so big anyway, there are so many pirates, and all of them are worth money.

She stayed with Lujiu for seventeen months, and then stayed for three months for Ace. This comeback made those pirates who thought that the sword demon was just a flash in the pan, or that the sword demon had been buried somewhere in the sea, instantly panicked - —Oh my God! It turns out that Sword Demon has not died in the past two years, but has given birth to a child! She came back with her newborn baby!

While Andrea was practicing justice and making money on the side, she also did not forget to educate her nephew.

Every time she killed someone, she would explain her reasons for killing the opponent to Ace in her arms, regardless of whether the other party understood it or not, just treat it as an early lesson.

As for the bloodiness, she didn't take it lightly - she had been educated as a swordsman since she was a child and had seen blood since she was a child.

And this is normal in this world.

At first, little Ace was obediently nestling in his aunt's arms and watching her aunt play swordsmanship with one hand. Later, he started to lie on his back, and then evolved into being able to firmly hold on to his aunt at any time, not because of the other party's. The action was wide open and wide and was thrown out.

Andrea felt that this child was really obedient, cooperated with her tacitly, and had shown agility since she was a child. When she grew up, she could even teach him swordsmanship.

At this time, she did not realize the seriousness of the future situation, and she felt a sense of joy that someone would succeed her.

And as her comeback and fame grew... another rumor began to spread - Sword Demon took her and Hawkeye's children and started killing them everywhere!

Andrea: ...?

【twenty one】

The pirates really didn't care who gave birth to a child out of wedlock or who the father of a child born to a single mother was.

But that's based on the fact that the child's father is no one.

When Andrea became famous, her name was always mentioned by another swordsman - Hawkeye.

The two of them did have a very good relationship, and they traveled together for a while and even fought together.

Under such circumstances, it is perfectly normal for the pirates to come to this reasoning - look! The sword demon's child also has black hair!

Andrea: So you can’t see my black hair at all, right?

However, she did not go out of her way to clarify the rumors.

First, because...those are all rumors from outside, and no one dares to dance in front of her;

The second reason was...she didn't know how to clarify it at all. After all, she couldn't tell Ace's true life experience.

With this feeling, when she saw Hawkeye again, she felt very complicated.

Hawkeye was simply happy to see his old friend again.

After all, except for his fighting time, he is actually quite a homebody. He doesn't like to go out either. Although he is one of the parties involved in the rumor, he doesn't know about it at all.

He just looked at the child in Andrea's arms, a little surprised: "Your child? Who is the father?"

Andrea looked at him with a bit of estimation. After she hesitated for a while, she sincerely asked: "So what... do you think it can be you?"

Hawkeye: "………………"
