[Pirates] Retired Knight's Logbook

【1】Return

Andrea, who had just eliminated the white whale and returned to this world, was in a trance for a moment.

First, she landed on Big's side. She politely dealt with those who thought she was an intruder. After getting to know Morgans, the president of the World Economic News, she "borrowed" Big's at the suggestion of the other party. A ship left.

Of course, she will definitely deal with the pirate flag.

Andrea didn't stay much longer and returned to the Water Capital.

She originally thought that only two days had passed, and even if Tom's matter could not be undone, she could beat up the man named Spandam again, or even consider killing him to mourn Tom - Andrea had been a gangster since she was a child. Being killed in the blood on the battlefield, naturally he doesn't mind killing a few scum.

However, what Andrea didn't expect was...she saw Luffy's bounty in the Water City.

——Monkey D. Luffy, with a bounty of 3 million Baileys, just made a big fuss on Judiciary Island not long ago, burned the government flag, and declared war with the World Government.

...Although I don’t know how I got to this point, it is indeed something that child can do. ——Andrea recalled the child in her memory who kept calling her mother and being silly and happy all day long. She looked at the bounty and curled her mouth, with an expression that seemed a bit dumbfounded.

However, more important than Luffy's bounty... is the issue of time.

Looking at Luffy's appearance on the bounty notice, it seems that more than a few days have passed.

Andrea went to talk to the people of the Water City and found out that seven years had passed. She was shocked but also a little worried - it had been seven years since she left... and the children at home didn't know what was happening.

Looking at Luffy is pretty good, I guess Sabo is still mature, Luo is relatively mature, and Bebo has Luo... But Ace, the kid who has always relied on her the most, doesn't know how... he will hide. Cry secretly?

Andrea also has full filters when it comes to her children. However, her understanding of Ace is not wrong - in her concept, the child is most likely to be called "Mama's Baby" by others.

And maybe because she had been staring at Luffy's bounty for too long, someone asked: "Miss, why have you been looking at Straw Hat Luffy's bounty? Are you a bounty hunter?"

"Huh? It doesn't count... I haven't been in this business for a long time." Andrea looked up and smiled, and said in a gentle tone, "Do you know Luffy?"

The other party looked wary: "He is the hero who saved our water city... What's wrong?"

"If possible, can you tell me his story?" The smile on Andrea's face became wider. "Don't worry, I can't do anything bad to him. I am his mother."

【2】Something is wrong

Hearing what Andrea said, the originally wary shopkeeper immediately started chatting and began to speak fluently. As he spoke, he felt that he was not trustworthy enough by himself, so he invited the shopkeeper next door to him. Said together.

When the others heard that she was Luffy's mother, they immediately gathered around and talked about her little son's great achievements.

Andrea listened carefully and sighed, it was indeed the way of this world. If it were her world, she would have been questioned and thought she had ulterior motives for saying so, but the people here would immediately believe her if she claimed to be Luffy's mother.

Luffy also did a lot of things in the Water City, and also saved the Water City and invited all the people in the Water City to attend the banquet.

Andrea wondered if this banquet was imitated by someone else, since Luffy didn't have this habit when he was a child.

However, she learned a lot of things from this.

She also specifically asked about the other children, and found that the people in the Water City didn't know Sabo at all, but they had a lot of impressions of Ace - "Oh, I know, that Fire Fist Ace, right?" , but when asked about Luo, few people knew about it.

Andrea couldn't help but frown inwardly - according to her family's rules for children to go to sea at the age of 17, Luffy is the last to go to sea. Considering the strength of the other children, it is impossible for them to have no names in this sea area...

While Andrea was deep in thought, someone asked: "Ah, Miss Andrea, do you want to ask Mayor Bingshan?"

"Yes, yes, that's right! Mayor Bingshan must know more than us!"

"Do you know the way? Let's take you to him! If he knows that you are Luffy's mother, he will be happy to help!"

iceberg? That big disciple of Tom back then? He has become the mayor... - Andrea felt a little surprised, but she did not refuse this, and went over to meet him face to face.

Bingshan was a little surprised by the sudden appearance of Luffy's mother, but judging from her familiar attitude, he didn't think she was just pretending.

And...there's no benefit in pretending, right? ——Recalling what Luffy did, Bingshan thought quietly.

As for Andrea's question, Bingshan can answer: "Ace's words... you are talking about Fire Fist Ace, the captain of Whitebeard's second division, right? So he is Luffy's brother... Indeed, I remember that he was also born in the East China Sea... By Luo, are you talking about Trafalgar Law who was born in the North Sea? I have also heard about his words. He is also somewhat famous in the Grand Line. He is this year's supernova. Sabo's words ...Sorry, I really don’t know this yet.”

"That's it..." Andrea thought thoughtfully, and when she met the gaze on the ice that looked at a stranger, as if she was just looking at her as Luffy's mother, she felt a little solemn in her heart, and nodded hesitantly, "Thank you for the information."

"Where." Bingshan smiled, "Luffy saved me and helped the Water City a lot. This small favor is not worth it."

【3】Inference

The iceberg does not know itself. ——After Andrea realized this, she felt quite heavy.

Andrea was not surprised that the residents of the Water City did not recognize her. Even though there were still a few faces that seemed familiar to her at the time... But seven years had passed, so it was normal for everyone not to remember them.

But for icebergs, it shouldn’t be.

After all...she was friends with Tom at that time. Logically speaking, no matter how bad Bingshan's memory was, he wouldn't have no impression at all.

Especially... at that time, she was still taking Sabo and Ace with her.

How could Bingshan treat these two children as strangers?

Unless...he lost his memory.

And Bingshan's state clearly didn't look like he felt like he had lost his memory.

Andrea thought of a possibility, and her heart gradually sank—unless... it was the influence of the Mist of Destruction.

Just like the master in that world didn't remember him at all, all traces of his existence in this world had completely disappeared.

Everyone has forgotten her.

Everything she did was in vain.

There is no trace of her existence in this world.

When I finished shooting the white whale, the loneliness that had been forgotten by the whole world came over me again.

However, she was relieved at that time because she knew that there was another world where she had a place, and there were people in the other world who were eager for her to return and were waiting for her.

But now...

Andrea lowered her eyes, took out the necklace around her neck, and opened the beautifully decorated pendant, which showed two photos.

The one on the left is the pregnant Lujiu and her. At that time, Lujiu had a premonition that she would not live long after giving birth, so she took a photo with her as a souvenir;

In this photo, Lujiu is sitting, while she is standing behind her, putting his hands on her shoulders, bending down to approach her, both of them smiling softly. Garp, who took the photos for them, said that the two looked alike, but Andrea felt that it was just Lujiu's personality that affected her, while Garp had a preconceived notion that the two were sisters, so he had certain filters. .

The one on the right is from Ace’s 3rd birthday.

The birthday photo taken of her holding Ace;

At that time, Ace had just eaten and started to feel sleepy. He nestled in Andrea's arms and put his hands around her neck and began to fall asleep. Andrea couldn't wake up when she screamed, so she had no choice but to smile at the camera. , and then turned sideways to let Ace reveal his full face.

Andrea stared at the photo for a moment, put it away, glanced at Portcas D. Ace's reward order, and took a long breath - Lujiu, please keep those children safe... …At least, nothing happens until I see them.

Andrea thought so. After thinking for a moment, she contacted the World Economic News and, with Morgans's consent, publicly wrote a missing person notice.

[Luffy, Ace, I saw your reward notice. I'm glad you are still so lively. How are you two doing now?

And Saab, is he still healthy now? The complete lack of news from you worries me.

I'm a mom, and I know you probably don't remember me at all, but I have something important to tell you. I'll wait for you at the Shampoo Islands.

——Devonshire D. Andrea]

【4】Parties

At this time, the Straw Hat Pirates and their crew were on their way to the Shampoo Islands.

After Nami bought the newspaper and paid with a look of displeasure, she looked at the report and was stunned.

After she was silent for a long time, in the background of Sanji and Zoro's daily quarrels and Luffy's still heartless laughter, she shouted: "You all, stop arguing!"

After a group of people were quiet for a second, they looked at her in confusion.

"What's wrong, Miss Nami? Isn't this green algae head making too much noise?"

"Hey! Are you noisier than me?"

"Hahahaha!"

"It must be Luffy, you're laughing too loudly!"

"Nami, is there something written in the newspaper? Is there any big news?" Robin was the only one who noticed the details and walked over.

Nami's hand holding the newspaper trembled slightly, and she looked up at the people mechanically: "Luffy's mother...appeared..."

After a group of people were quiet for about half a minute, everyone's expressions changed, including Luffy's.

"Why--!?"

After everyone was surprised, they all shouted at Luffy: "Why are you surprised!?"

Luffy looked shocked: "So, it turns out I have a mother."

Everyone: "..." If not, where did you come from? Is it a gift from Neptune?

"Wait! Are you sure it's really Luffy's mother?"

"Yeah, I don't know if it's true or not yet... Grandpa Luffy told me about Luffy's father. If Luffy's mother is still here, why didn't he say it?"

"Idiot! Luffy has never met his mother. Luffy's parents must have separated, and then Luffy's father raised the child!"

"Makes sense..."

"I think it should be true. After all, Ace was mentioned in the newspaper... There are very few people who know that Ace is Luffy's brother, right?" Nami turned the newspaper over to everyone and pointed to the lower left corner. The missing person notice showed a slightly puzzled expression at the right time, "But a strange name was also mentioned, Sabo..."

While the Straw Hats were watching, Luffy walked over, took the newspaper, and read the notice seriously.

"Ah...this must indeed be my mother." Luffy said.

"Huh? Real or fake?"

"Luffy's mother...that is...that dragon's wife..."

"But who is this Sabo?"

"Sabo is my brother." Luffy raised his head, looked at a few people, and said calmly, "He died ten years ago."

On the other side, the Revolutionary Army Headquarters——————

"Sabo, your name was mentioned in the newspaper... It's your mother, right?" Kerla hesitated, "The Shampoo Islands... do you want to go?

Or did you remember something? "

Sabo stared at the newspaper, looking at the few lines of words on it, and felt a little stunned.

Luffy...Ace...

"I...I want to go." Sabo murmured these words subconsciously.

When Kerla heard what the other party said, she breathed a sigh of relief, and a smile appeared on her face: "Well! Looking at this missing person notice, your mother seems to be looking for you... and she also mentioned other people. , are you three brothers?"

……Three Brothers?

Sabo suddenly felt a headache, and several blurry and unclear images seemed to flash before his eyes.

He raised his hand to press his temples, frowned tightly, and stared at the newspaper without moving his eyes away: "...Well, it should be."

At this time, another revolutionary army...

Monkey D. Dragon: "..." This...first of all excludes Luffy's mother, so...is it Ace or Sabo's mother?

At the same time, the Navy Headquarters————

Monkey D. Karp: "..." Whose mother is this? First, rule out whether it's Ace's mother... Luffy's or Sabo's?
