Showdown, this is the pirate chat group

Ace stared at Blackbeard with wide eyes, curious about what he would say next.

Blackbeard smiled secretly in his heart, and he said in a pretense of reminiscence:

"Speaking of Roger, I have met him once. He is a powerful figure. He once teamed up with the naval hero Garp to defeat the legendary pirate Rocks. Did you know that at the time, Rocks was one of the pirates? Who are the members?"

"Anyone?"Ace asked quickly

"The three current kings are all members of the Rocks Pirates. Not only that, but also the famous pirate Golden Lion. He once made a big fuss at the Navy Headquarters after the arrest of Pirate King Roger, and was killed by the Navy hero Garp and the Navy Admiral. It took the Warring States Period to join forces to subdue them.

In addition to them, there are many famous big pirates, all of whom are members of the Rocks Pirates.

Such a pirate group was defeated by Roger and Garp. After that, the Rocks Pirate Group fell apart, and the pirates who came out became big figures in the sea. Now you know how powerful Roger was back then."

The first time he heard about his father, Ace was a little curious and a little complicated. He was amazed at Roger's strength and the glory he had created on the sea, but he was also disgusted by such a sinful bloodline.

"Then he must be hated by others, after all he has done so many bad things."Ace said

"It is natural to be hated by others!"Blackbeard burst out laughing.

Upon hearing Blackbeard's words, Ace's expression suddenly became depressed.

But Blackbeard continued:"Who is a pirate who is not hated by others? Those who have been defeated by them, the navy who hunted them, and the civilians who don't know the reason will all hate them, but so what, hasn't Roger become the Pirate King and the only true king of the sea?"

"But I heard that everyone hates him, saying that he has brought too much pain to the world and destroyed many families. People like him should not exist."

Even him...but Ace didn't say it out loud, but said in his heart

"Ha ha……"Blackbeard laughed,"Do you know Roger?"

Ace nodded and shook his head. He didn't understand. He had heard what others said. Everyone hated Roger so much that they wanted to be angry. Eat its meat

"Look, you don’t understand either. I still know something about Roger. Let me tell you about it."

"Roger is not that kind of pure criminal. He is not so much a pirate as he is a somewhat naive adventurer.

From going to sea to becoming the Pirate King and then to his death, he never did anything to hurt people like you mentioned. He has only one purpose, which is to reach the final island, become the Pirate King, and understand the truth of this world.

Finally he did it, he became the Pirate King and realized his dream. Isn't this the happiest thing for a man? Who does this hinder?

If we must say that Roger hurt the world, then it is not the process and result of him becoming the Pirate King.

But because before he died, he started the era of great pirates and attracted countless people to go to sea to search for his treasure. This was his crime.

But it was not Roger himself who committed these crimes, but those who were evil in nature. They were burning, killing, looting, and committing murders, but people imposed this crime on Roger.

Maybe the somewhat naive Roger wanted to start the Age of Discovery, and just wanted to invite those who wanted to go to sea freely like him to go to sea together, and maybe inherit his great secret treasure?"

Blackbeard smiled,"If you want to understand Roger thoroughly, why not go to sea, become the Pirate King, and see the world from his perspective. Maybe you will understand his thoughts at that time and understand that innocence. of One Piece."

Become the Pirate King?"

Ace fell into deep thought.

This was the first time he heard other people talk about these things.

The things he heard about Roger before were all unsightly and made him feel ashamed as Roger's son..

He is ashamed that he is the son of a criminal who has caused endless harm.

But today someone suddenly told him that your father was not wrong, and he did not do anything harmful to others.

The people who did these things are evil in nature, and Roger just unintentionally brought out the evil seeds of these people.

And this was not Roger's original intention. He just wanted to find a successor.

Innocent... This was the first time Ace heard someone use such words. To describe this unforgivable pirate king, he never expected that this word could be used to describe him.

Suddenly, Ace felt that his previous hatred for his father was a little one-sided and weak.

He even didn't even know what his father's character was. I don’t know what it is.

Ace looked up at Blackbeard and asked:

"Is what you said true? Roger is really not the ruthless pirate they say, who has killed countless people. Blackbeard shook his head and said:

"If it were someone else, I can't guarantee it, but Roger's words are indeed true. You can ask anyone who has had contact with Roger, and you will find that not only is he not a bad guy, but he is more like a fool. Egg.

Maybe it's because he is such a fool that he has so many friends.

Pirates such as Whitebeard and Golden Lion are both enemies and friends with him, and even the naval hero Garp is an enemy and friend with him. Otherwise, how could Roger and Garp team up to deal with Rocks?"

Hearing Blackbeard talking about Garp, Ace's mind felt like the dark clouds had dispersed, and the sun was shining brightly. It turns out that's it, it turns out that's it!

If Roger is really as they said, he is a big bad guy who does all kinds of evil. , then why would Grandpa Garp take the risk to adopt Roger’s son?

He understood everything

"Thank you, I understand."Ace bowed to Blackbeard and thanked him. This was his heartfelt gratitude.

Blackbeard solved the knot he had always had. If his father was not a bad guy, then he wouldn't have to worry about it.

All along, his father committed crimes. The sins he committed caused him to suffer.

Now he finally understood that his father was wrong. His fault lay in his naivety, his fault in his recklessness, and his fault in not realizing the greed and evil of human nature. But he did not commit these crimes himself. He is not a bad guy by nature.
