Pirates: The biggest scum in naval history

"Besides, aren't those people pirates? I don't have a good impression of pirates..."

Tianyue Shi bit her chopsticks gently and looked at Darren calmly.

During her countless journeys through time and space in the past 800 years, she has seen scenery that ordinary people have never seen in their lifetime.

Times change, years change, the sea rises and falls, countries are destroyed and reborn, the world situation is ever-changing... But one thing is certain, no matter in which era, pirates are synonymous with chaos and plunder.

Not to mention that when she first came to this era, she was deceived by pirates and traffickers and almost sold into slavery.

All kinds of factors combined, Tianyueshi naturally didn't have a good impression of pirates.

What a girl with very upright views... Darren's eyes lit up slightly and he couldn't help but sigh.

Originally, he was worried that due to the influence of the world line, Tianyue would think differently about Kozuki Oden.

He had to spend some time convincing her, but he didn't expect Tianyue Shi to be so sensible, so it saved him a lot of effort.

"Then aren't you afraid that I am also a bad person, Ah Shi?"

Darren smiled.

"No, I'm not afraid, Mr. Darren."

Tianyue Shi said with a smile, then lowered his head slightly and whispered shyly:

"And Mr. Darren is so handsome, how could he be a bad guy?"

Darren was stunned and laughed.

He really didn't expect this reason.

But when I think about it, it makes perfect sense.

On one side is the tall and handsome marine who rescued you from human traffickers;

On one side is a pirate whose head is swollen into a pig's head, stupid and reckless, like a monster;

It’s so clear who to choose and who to believe.

"It's just Mr. Darren, the guy who calls himself Kozuki Oden... I think the clothes he is wearing seem to be the clothes of Wano Country?"

Tianyueshi suddenly remembered something at this time and couldn't help but ask.

"You must have been holding this question back for a long time, right?"

Darren glanced at Tianyueshi with interest.

The latter clenched his fists, feeling a little embarrassed at being exposed, and nodded in admission with a red face.

"Yes."

Her goal of traveling through time and space was to go to the future Wano Country. After finally encountering a person wearing a samurai uniform, she naturally couldn't help but be curious and pay more attention.

It was just that she had vaguely noticed that Darren seemed to be full of hostility towards Kozuki Oden, so she never dared to ask.

Now as the two of them gradually became familiar with each other and opened up the conversation, she hesitated to ask the question hidden in her heart.

However, to Tianyueshi's surprise, Darren actually smiled frankly and said:

"Yes, that guy is indeed from Wano Country."

He didn't intend to deceive Tianyue.

Ah Shi, who looks weak on the outside, is actually strong and smart on the inside.

If she conceals too much, once she notices it, she may not say anything on the surface, but she will definitely lose trust in herself in her heart.

Instead of doing this, it is better to tell the truth frankly.

A woman hates when a man cheats on her.

No matter where in the world, this is an unbreakable truth.

So as a man, you must either be sincere enough or deceive to the end.

But Darren doesn't like cheating on the woman he likes.

"Kozuki Oden, the heir to the Kozuki clan of Wano Country, the Kuri Daimyo of Wano Country, was born with different appearances and is very powerful."

Darren smiled broadly and patiently told Tianyue:

"He is a man with a very adventurous spirit. He has disdained secular rules since he was a child. He has not much nostalgia for fame, wealth, power, and his country. He wholeheartedly advocates adventure at sea and seeing the wider world."

"But as I told you before, Wano has been in a 'closed door' policy for many years, with almost zero contact with the outside world. Wano's citizens are strictly prohibited from going to sea."

"So, Kozuki Oden finally decided to give up his family, status, people, and even the country, boarded the ship of the Whitebeard Pirates, and became a free pirate."

"In general, Kozuki Oden is a free and uninhibited, maverick, and carefree character... In the country of Wano, the people who hate him hate him almost to the bone, and there are countless people who admire him, and they regard him as a born god. of heroes."

"And I believe you have also guessed that the reason why he appeared on that island at that time was because he heard your call... He came to save you."

Speaking of this, Darren's eyes flashed when he noticed Tianyue, which confirmed his statement.

"Well, after talking about the 'invincible hero in the world' Kozuki Oden, let's talk about myself."

Darren smiled nonchalantly, took out a cigarette and lit it.

As the sea breeze blew the smoke and his face, he rarely spoke of his past.

"I was born in Beihai, the most chaotic place in the world. I didn't have any talents that were different from ordinary people since I was a child. I started as an ordinary naval private and climbed step by step to the status and power I have today."

"In order to gain strength, I train harder than anyone else, often training to the point of vomiting blood;"

"For the sake of military merit and promotion, I am not afraid to use any means to deal with pirates and enemies;"

"I once slaughtered a mafia family of thousands of people in one night, and also used despicable means to assassinate nobles and dignitaries who opposed me;"

"In addition to my official position, I also control underground forces in large areas of the sea through various channels."

"My illegal income every day is countless, and I can't even remember the women I slept with..."

"The nobles tremble under my intimidation. Pirates are almost extinct in the waters under my jurisdiction. And it is for this reason...the crime rate under my rule is unexpectedly and horribly low."

"I am cruel, greedy, ruthless, and ruthless. I will never let go of any enemy, and of course I will never betray my friends."

On the edge of the island, next to the bonfire.

In the Commodore's face filled with smoke, a pair of deep eyes were filled with memories.

The whole world is eerily quiet.

Only the sound of waves crashing against the rocks echoed continuously.

"Ah Shi, looking back you will soon know that I, Rogers Darren, am not a good person."

"In addition to those illustrious military exploits and the name of the so-called 'monster,' most people on this sea will curse me in their hearts as 'the biggest scum in the navy.'"

Having said this, Darren raised the corners of his mouth somewhat self-deprecatingly, turned his head to look at the kimono woman who was kneeling next to him, listening quietly, and said with a smile:

"Do you regret it now?"

"Instead of choosing the 'hero' that everyone praises Kozuki Oden, I chose a scum like me instead."
