Traveler in the Pirate World

"The pirates are coming!" Three childish voices rang out in Xiluobu Village, triggering shouts and curses from the villagers.

"Green Pepper Head, you little brats, what are you doing so early in the morning?"

"Usopp's gone, you're at it again, aren't you? You're asking for a fight!"

……

"Run, run!" Upon hearing that, the three little kids scattered and ran towards the coast.

In a large house high above the village, which was far more luxurious than any other building in the village, a weak girl with blonde hair and slightly pale skin heard the noise in the village. She couldn't help but put down the book in her hand, looked in the direction of the village, and muttered to herself, "Usopp, where are you now?"

In the woods near the coast, the three Green Pepper-Headed Men gathered at the shooting range where they used to practice with Usopp, overlooking the sea. They had been in this posture for a long time.

A small black dot suddenly appeared on the sea, which made the three people who were originally a little drowsy suddenly alert. The green pepper head shouted: "Liar Bu Self-Defense Group, assemble!"

"Carrot head!"

"Here!" The boy with a pointed chin, short purple hair, and a red hat answered in a sonorous voice.

"Onion!"

"Here!" Onionhead's head is round, with middle-parted hair close to the scalp and a tuft of forked hair standing in the middle, making him look like an onion.

"An unidentified ship was spotted at sea, and the Scammers' Self-Defense Corps was sent to investigate the enemy." The guy with green hair looks just like a green pepper.

"Yes!" The voices responded in unison, and the three little guys acted in an orderly manner.

They set up visible trip ropes on the gentle slope of the coast. On the high ground on both sides of the slope, they piled up stones for attacking the enemy and oil drums for blocking the enemy's progress. Then they squatted quietly in the grass and waited.

As the ship approached, Qingjiaotou and the others gradually saw the situation of the approaching ship.

On a simple wooden sailboat that could only accommodate one or two people, a burly figure was lying weakly on the side of the boat, looking like he was dying.

When the boat reached the shore, the man on it struggled to climb down from the boat, with half of his legs submerged in the sea, and staggered towards the shore. His ferocious appearance scared the three people, and they couldn't help but feel terrified.

If the residents of Shields saw the man in black and white striped prison uniform, with a steel jaw and a giant axe in his right arm, they would definitely exclaim, "Colonel Monka!"

After escaping from Garp's ship, Monka had been drifting on the sea for several days. Without food or water, he was almost unable to hold on.

But when he thought about what he still had to do, he gritted his teeth and persevered until now, and finally came across a small island.

He staggered towards a gentle slope that was obviously dug out by manpower. Suddenly, his feet were tripped by something. His foot misstepped and his whole body fell straight down. His already weak body could no longer hold on and he fainted for a moment.

"Why isn't he moving?" Onionhead asked in a low voice, looking at Monka lying motionless on the ground.

"Looking at his appearance, he might have been drifting on the sea for too long and fainted from hunger," said the Green Pepper-Headed Man uncertainly.

Through the gap in the grass, Carrot Head looked at the huge axe that was gleaming with cold light, and said in a low voice, "Wait a minute, that guy doesn't look like a good person. Let's wait and see, what if he is trying to trick us?"

"That's true. Let's wait a little longer." Green Pepper and Onion nodded in agreement.

After a long time, Monka still didn't move at all, as if he was dead.

Green Pepper Head bravely threw a fist-sized stone at Monka, which happened to hit his forehead and blood immediately flowed out.

Although Monka still didn't move, Green Pepper was a little panicked, "He didn't move at all, could he have fallen to death?"

"How about we go and take a look?" Onionhead was also a little panicked. The three little guys really didn't think of killing anyone or anything. They just thought that if pirates came, they just needed to scare them away.

After seeing the other two nod, the three of them took the wooden swords and moved towards Monka.

When they saw Monka lying on the ground with blood all over his head and no sound of breathing, the three of them were completely panicked.

"What should I do?" Onionhead couldn't help but shouted.

"I don't know!" Carrot Head was also at a loss.

"Why are you looking at me? I don't know!" The Green Pepper Head was at a loss as to what to do when he saw his two friends looking at him in unison.

Just as the three of them were running around in a panic, a familiar voice came from the top of the gentle slope, "What are you doing?"

"Butler Meli!" The three of them exclaimed in unison, looking at the man in butler's clothes with white curly hair like sheep's wool on the top of the gentle slope with panic expressions.

Meli had heard the panicked voices of the three people earlier, so he came over to check. Now that he saw the situation clearly, he hurried over.

After checking Monka's weak breath, Meli looked at the three and said comfortingly, "He's fine, just too weak. Carrot and Onion, go get some help first. Green Pepper, tell me what's going on."

……

In the damp lower cabin, Monka's hands and feet were bound, his head lowered, his eyes full of loneliness and self-blame. He remembered everything he had forgotten.

The deck was stained red with the blood of their companions, and the enemy was incredibly powerful. They didn't even have time to see how the opponent attacked before death came.

He remembered that he once covered his severed arm and shouted at the devil-like pirate Crowe: "Kill me, bastard!" How fearless he was at that time!

Severe pain came from his jaw, and the sound of bones breaking is still as clear as ever today. He covered his jaw, recalling everything he had done after being hypnotized. Tears wet his entire cheeks, and on his ferocious face, there was unsuppressible pain and despair.

"You don't seem to be afraid of the coming trial!" The sudden voice made Monka look up, and he saw a man in a gray windbreaker, a top hat, and a navy uniform looking at him calmly.

"Kill me, what have I done? I betrayed... betrayed justice!" Monka gritted his teeth and shouted, as if he saw the bloody lives of innocent people on his hands.

Bogart ignored his roar and said calmly: "You were born in Shields Town in the East Sea of ​​Monka. You were a private in the 153rd Branch. Unfortunately, you were attacked by the Black Cat Pirates during a cruise. You were the only man who survived and successfully captured the captain of the Black Cat Pirates, Momoki Kro. With this achievement, you were successfully promoted to captain of the 153rd Branch, but your temperament changed drastically afterwards..."

"Stop talking!" Monka could not help but roar, shouting hysterically, "What Clo, what merit, what... I am just a bastard who was let go by those bastards, a fool who was fooled and hypnotized. The one they caught was just their boatman, a poor boatman named Nuki Yanu who was also hypnotized to think he was Clo."

Looking at Monka, who was in despair after shouting himself hoarse, Bogart remained calm. He wrote and drew on the document in his hand for a long time, then looked up at Monka and said, "Maybe you were forced to do this, but the tragedy you caused cannot be erased. You are still guilty, Monka!"

"I... am guilty!" Monka nodded and admitted that he was willing to accept any punishment, but he still couldn't help but say, "Can you let my son Bellemeber go? It's my fault for not educating him well. I'm willing to take the responsibility for it all, but I don't want him to lose everything because of his irresponsible father."

"Vice Admiral Garp said that if you are not hopeless, then go and atone for your past. I hope you still have justice in your heart. I will arrange for someone to keep an eye on you." Bogart's sudden words made Monka startled. Then there was the sound of the door opening. "As for Bellemer, Mr. Garp will help you educate him. As for whether he can become a talent, it depends on him. Now you can escape. Remember, Mr. Garp does not want any more evil pirates in the East China Sea, nor does he want the existence of navy officers who abuse their power."

……

When Monka woke up from his dream, he found himself lying on a soft sofa, but his hands and feet were bound by iron chains that were not very strong. He tried to struggle a few times, but found that he could not get free, so he looked around.

This was a nicely decorated guest room. Apart from being restrained and having a bruised forehead from the previous fall, which caused some pain, I felt no other discomfort. It seemed that the other party had no ill intentions.

There was a "creaky" sound of the door opening. Monka looked in the direction of the sound and saw a man dressed as a butler with fluffy curly hair, leading a weak blonde woman in, followed by three little ghosts.

"I'm sorry to talk to you in this way, sir." The blonde woman politely expressed her apology, "My name is Ke Ya and I'm the owner of this house. Sir, can you reveal your identity? After all, you don't look like a good person."

Keya sat down opposite Monka, looking calm and composed, but cold sweat was already seeping out of her back.

Meli tightened the pistol hidden in his sleeve, ready to shoot without hesitation if the other party made any bad move.

Monka didn't say anything. He didn't know how to explain his identity. Once the other party knew that he was a criminal wanted by the navy, he would most likely be handed over to the navy.

He has not yet done what he promised Mr. Bolt, so he cannot be caught now. Even if he is caught, he hopes that the person who brings him to justice is Bellumeber.

As early as when he was knocked unconscious by Luffy and woke up again, Monka had already remembered everything.

Clo destroyed the entire fleet and survived by chance, but in the end, Zango used hypnosis to distort him and another unlucky guy. The rank of colonel that he once was proud of was just a product of others' attempt to escape punishment. The fact that he was completely used made him extremely painful.

He found himself again as the person who was willing to sacrifice for justice, but he could not go back to the past. Even under hypnosis, Monka could not deny the sins he had committed. He needed atonement and revenge.

Monka's eyes casually swept across the window not far away, and his body suddenly leaned forward and squatted, his legs stretched outward, and the chain was instantly tightened.

He exerted force from his waist and back, and chopped down with both hands. The chain broke with a sound. Monka misstepped his steps and strode forward with a dive momentum. He protected his head with both hands, broke through the window directly, rolled after landing, and rushed into the woods.

Almost at the same time when Monka made a move, the pistol on Meli's sleeve made a loud sound, smoke rose, and a round bullet flew out, but was hit by Monka's hand axe. The stray bullet only grazed Monka's right arm, leaving a shallow blood mark.

Just when Kaya and the others were horrified and wondering what Monka was going to do, Monka broke through the window and escaped, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

"Meli, hurry up and notify the villagers!" Kaya said to Meli quickly.

After Meli nodded, he immediately went downstairs to make arrangements.

"Let's go too!" Green Pepper and the others followed him out of the room and ran towards the village.
