[One Piece] Mindless and unhappy

When Haibara Ai returned to the Little Giles, Ace was still challenging Whitebeard persistently.

Shiva always treated her like a little girl. Even after her medical skills improved, she was already a companion who could stand on her own in the eyes of most crew members, but Shiva still treated her like a cub just like when she first came on board. Pampered. She has told Shiva that she is just temporarily unable to grow up, but is actually an adult. However, Shiva still goes her own way, and every time she goes out, she will bring her some small jewelry and toys that little girls may like, like Now Shiva is worried that she will be too lonely after staying in the laboratory for a long time, so he will tell her some short stories about recent events.

The main character these days is Ace.

The too stable life on the Little Jiles has given Shiva little space to express her desire to tell stories recently, but she can always hear a lot of interesting things when she prepares ingredients or occasionally chats with crew members on other ships.

"I heard that Fire Fist has been challenging Dad recently," Shiva said as vividly as if he had seen it before. "Yesterday, I rushed up to Dad while he was drinking. Dad waved his hand and knocked him into the sea. He couldn’t swim, so I heard it took a long time to fish him out.”

Hui Yuan Ai thought about the two sneak attacks she saw, and felt that this matter was probably not exaggerated, so she nodded.

Shiva warned her again: "Although Dad didn't say it, he has been worried about you. Don't think too much. Children have the right to be willful."

Shiva has said this many times in the past few years, but Haihara Ai is also helpless. She is used to keeping everything in her heart.

Although she has a lot of sense of belonging to the Whitebeard Pirates, she really can't pronounce the title father. The parents in her memory were too far away, and their voices and smiles were blurred. She only vaguely remembered that they were very gentle people. After their death, she and her sister depended on each other. Her medical talent was high enough. While researching drugs for the organization, she also She protected her sister who was also in the organization, but after her sister passed away because of the organization, she once again lost her family and all the warmth that the word home brought to her.

When she was imprisoned/imprisoned by the organization and swallowed the hidden aptx4869, although she knew that this medicine did have a chance of her body regressing to an early age, she was not sure about this kind of probabilistic experiment. She might as well have simply died at that time. idea. After getting to know Edogawa Conan, her goal was to develop an antidote to aptx4869. After coming to this new world, there was no threat from the black organization, so she naturally set her tentative goal to develop an antidote to restore her body. It's just that the word family is too heavy for her. The family members around her leave one by one, and she is still alone in the end. She admits that she is a coward and is still afraid of losing.

She told Shiva that she was going to give Whitebeard a routine check-up today, and then she took a boat to the Moby-Dick alone.

It was a little late when she went up today. She found a new ratio today. Although it was unsuccessful in the end, it also verified what she guessed. The medicinal properties of medicinal materials in this world are more single. Research on aptx4869 requires not only medicinal materials, but also possible There will also be some component analysis of devil fruits needed to continue. By the time the work at hand comes to an end, the sun outside the window has gradually set, and the setting sun in the sky reflects the sparkling waves on the sea.

Margao put the soup he was holding next to Ace, who was hugging his knees and leaning on the edge of the boat, took a look and turned to leave.

Ace glanced at Tang. He had made trouble many times recently, but each time he doubted whether what he did was right. But the other party allowed him to vent again and again. He couldn't help but wonder if he was just a joke in the eyes of the other party. A small toy to adjust your mood.

"Why do you call him daddy?" Ace thought about the first time they met, Whitebeard defeated him, but invited him to become his son, but the word father was not a good image in his heart.

Margao heard him speak and turned to look at him and replied: "Because he calls us sons."

"We are all people who are hated by this world. Just a word makes us very happy." Margao thought of the "son" that Whitebeard said when he invited him to join, and said with a smile: "I'm really happy. .”

Ace has never seen his father since he was born, but he has always hated his father. Margao asked him: "You can't take off your father's head now. Do you want to leave here and start over? Or do you want to Stay here?"

Margao pointed to the pirate flag flying on the watchtower, "Where's the symbol of staying here and carrying Whitebeard?"

stay here...

His goal was to become the Pirate King, a dream he had decided on with his two other brothers in Windmill Village. But the Pirate King is now synonymous with Gol D. Roger, and the father he has always hated. He hates his father as much as he loves his mother.

"...I want to stay here." Ace buried his head in his arms, but Margao still heard his words.

"...Dad is different from many pirates. He doesn't want to be the Pirate King, and he's not very interested in the treasures. All he wants is his family." Margao also leaned against the side of the ship and slowly sat down, "He My hometown was in a country that was destroyed because I couldn’t pay the heavenly gold. When my father became a pirate and got money, he spent all the money on the construction of his hometown. He couldn’t even afford a bottle of good wine, so he bought it every day for everyone else. Good wine to drink.”

Margao smiled: "But he is a good father, and you will be proud of your choice."

After he finished speaking, he didn't care about Ace's reaction, turned his head and glanced at the corner of the cabin without saying anything, clasped his hands behind his head and swayed away.

Haibara Ai didn't expect to hear Margao's enlightenment when she got on the boat. She could guarantee that Margao would feel her presence, but she didn't expose it and pretended that nothing was wrong.

He was not only telling Ace, who was currently emotionally unstable, but he was also telling her.

She pretended that nothing happened and finished a full-body examination of Whitebeard. After the examination, she packed her things and prepared to go back. However, she suddenly stopped and wanted to say something, but in the end she said nothing and turned around to leave.

Whitebeard looked at Margao who came in after Huiyuan Ai left, and asked him: "What's wrong with Xiao Ai today? Her ears are all red."

Margao laughed twice without telling Whitebeard the specific reason. He only said that it would be interesting to see Xiao Ai's reaction next.

Haiyuan Ai actually didn't think too much. In fact, she already regarded Baibeard as an elder of her father's generation and respected her, but she couldn't say the title of her father, especially after knowing today that Baibeard's dream is family, she said " "Daddy" was still a bit unaccustomed to being held in my throat, so I didn't shout it out in the end.

When she left the Moby-Dick yesterday, she left a note for Margo. It said that the recent research had yielded results and asked him to pay attention to Whitebeard's condition every day and not go to the main ship for the time being.

When Haihara Ai saw Ace again, she discovered that he had the Whitebeard logo tattooed on his back.

Ace thought that it was he who provoked Whitebeard and caused him to wake up while he was sleeping. Although he had apologized at the time, he still felt a little sorry for being woken up by a little girl in the middle of the night. He wanted to apologize when he saw her again. But I didn't see her for several days. After asking Margao, I found out that the little girl was not on the main ship on weekdays. It was a good time to come to the Little Jiles and get to know the other friends.

Little Oz is a rare giant among the Whitebeards. Although there are indeed many giant races in the group, there are very few giants. What's more, Little Oz is also considered huge among the giants. Because He is too big, and he doesn't like to move around much. He prefers to squat in one place and relax. When Ace came, he happened to see him staring at the sea in a daze.

"Hello, just call me Ace. Why are you squatting here alone?"

"Ace..." Little Oz read the name, "You are the new companion on the ship. I heard Margao talk about you."

He shook his head and spoke slowly, as if his reaction was more than half a beat too slow: "I'm in a daze."

Ace is always a familiar person, and he has become familiar with everyone in just a few days. In addition, although little Oz reacts a little slowly, he is actually a gentle character who is easy to talk to. When Ace sees Haiyuan When he was crying, he had already been chatting with little Oz in a lively manner. He waved to say hello to Haihara Ai, turned around and said something to little Oz, then stood up and walked to Haihara Ai.

"I'm really sorry for disturbing your sleep. I brought you some small gifts."

He took some snacks and small hairpins that children are more likely to like, put them in front of Haiyuan Ai with his palm, and scratched his head with his other hand, "I only have one younger brother in my family. I don't know what the little girl likes, so I asked on the boat. I don’t know if you like other people.”

"You don't need to treat me like a child, and you don't need to apologize for that little thing." Haiyuan Ai glanced at him, took these "apology gifts", and then thanked him in a low voice: "But I still thank you very much. Gift."

Seeing her take these, Ace breathed a sigh of relief and said with emotion: "I rarely see little girls at sea, so I'm more worried about scaring you. It's fine since it's okay."

He didn't say much. He came over and gave her a small apology gift, saying that he wouldn't disturb her research and continued to chat with little Oz.

Haiyuan Ai looked at the small gifts in her hand. Her childhood was full of learning various subjects. Occasionally, her sister would give gifts, but they would always be exquisitely packaged. Later, when she regained her childhood appearance, she was surrounded by a group of children "of the same age". This was the first time she was treated as a little girl. She was given a handful of colorfully packaged candies and small hairpins. She held the handful of bits and pieces in her hand. Put the things on the laboratory table, picked up the pink bow hairpin and looked at it for two seconds.

"Tsk, it's ugly."

Although she said she was disgusted, she still found a small box in the laboratory, put the hairpin in properly, then took an orange candy and opened it in her mouth. The taste of orange instantly filled her mouth, and then she I unfolded the candy wrapper, wiped it twice with a paper towel, flattened it and put it in the box.

"——The candy is quite delicious."
