Two years is not long, nor is it short. It is so long that the Red Hair Pirates have undergone two increases in personnel, and it is so long that the Navy will be afraid when the Red Hair Pirates are mentioned.

It is so short that there is no time to take risks carefully in three sea areas, and it is so short that it seems that in a blink of an eye, the two-year agreement has arrived.

When Beckman reminded that the two-year agreement was up, Shanks was still in a trance for a moment, he was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said: "Okay, then let's go to Rogue Town."

At that time, Shanks was writing a sailing diary—he used to be on Roger’s ship, and he had this habit. It was as small as going to an island to buy something, and it was as big as defeating a few people in a naval battle today.

Now that he is the captain, he has not missed a day. He watched Beckman close the door and leave, and looked back at the diary.

To add the last few words, the resentment is extremely heavy.

[Ever since Yaka moved out of the captain's cabin, I always felt that something was missing in the captain's cabin. Today I removed the hammock and felt better. 】

[I asked Yaka again today if he wanted to move back, and he refused me again. I was so angry that I drank three glasses of rum, this account must be clearly recorded, and when he moves back in the future, he must definitely make up for it. 】

After finishing writing and putting it away, Shanks picked up the black cloak hanging aside and walked slowly onto the deck.

The pirate group has begun to take shape, and with the addition of two expansions, the deck is now bustling like a market. In the calm afternoon, there is no navy or pirates, and everyone gathers and chats in a relaxed manner.

"Hello Captain!"

"Boss."

"Boss, do you want a drink?"

He answered one by one, and finally came to the bow of the ship, on top of the dragon's head of the Reid, Akales was leaning on the dragon's horns, closing his eyes and sleeping lightly.

The sea breeze blew his long hair up, and the shirt with two buttons missing was eagerly opened and closed, exposing his collarbone and half of his chest from time to time.

If other people came up, Akales should have opened his eyes long ago, but he felt that it was Shanks, so he didn't have any vigilance.

Shanks quietly sat next to Akales, staring at him quietly, two years is enough for a person to change.

For example, Shanks likes to wear a cloak now, for example, Lagi is getting fatter and fatter, and for example, Chef Peel has changed from doing what the crew wanted to eat at the beginning to now that he has to eat whatever the crew does. very big.

But Akales seems to have not changed except for his height. He still can't get tanned, and he is still beautiful and clean, which is incompatible with pirates.

Shanks stroked his stubble, and thought for a long time before he realized that the biggest change in the other party was that Yaka had started drinking now. Although it was only the fruit wine with the lowest alcohol content, it was much better than the first sip.

The gaze he stared at was so direct and hot that Akales quickly opened his eyes, and he smiled at Shanks, the smile disappeared quickly, and then returned to his original indifferent look .

Shanks did not hesitate to smile at all, he said: "Yaka, we will go back to Rogue Town immediately."

"Hmm." Akales didn't ask the reason, because he still remembered the sniper that Shanks had regretted for a while.

"I didn't expect two years to pass so quickly. The last time we went to Rogge Town... was when the captain was executed." Shanks sighed, reaching out to grab a strand of Akales's hair to play with, "It will be soon Entering the great voyage like Captain Roger."

"You will do better than him, and you will be more free." After Akales finished speaking, he saw complex emotions in Shanks' eyes.

In Shanks' heart, no one can be better than Captain Roger, that is the back of the stalwart that he has been watching since he was a child, that is a giant tree that shelters him from the wind and rain.

He wanted to be the same as Captain Roger, but he never thought of surpassing him. The gap between him and Roger was countless bottomless chasms.

So when Akales said these words, Shanks was complicated in his heart. Compared with most of the pirates, the current achievements of the Reid are already very good.

Shanks also has self-confidence. If he had the corresponding ambition, the Reid's achievements were far more than that, but he didn't. He didn't want to be the overlord of the sea, he just wanted to travel around the world with the crew.

"Yaka, no one will surpass Captain Roger." Shanks' voice was gentle, but unquestionable. It was the first time he spoke to Yakales in such a tone, "No one."

Akales looked at him. "Innocents die, whether in sea or on land."

"I will protect you."

"...I don't need your protection."

After breaking up unhappy, Akales jumped back to the deck and returned to the cabin with a cold face. He now lives alone in a room at the end of the cabin, which is about the same size as before.

The room kept the same layout as Roger's ship, a hammock, a small cabinet, and a window, but otherwise, it was clean.

Akales is not in the habit of putting things outside.

He sat by the window and looked at the boundless sea outside. This is the West Sea and the hometown of Shanks.

There are many reasons for moving out from Shanks.

There are more and more people on board, and many people who joined the Pirates will discuss that as a combatant, no matter how good the relationship is, he should not live with the captain.

This is one point, and Akales can also feel... Shanks's liking, that kind of emotion is too pure, and he really doesn't know how to respond.

And Shanks is too naive now. His dream is to travel around the world. There is nothing right or wrong in itself, but there are too many dangers and variables in the sea. Just having a dream is impossible to realize.

Their strength can support them to travel across the four seas, and through the first half of the great route, but in the second half, rights and interests are intertwined, with layers of influence, and even Roger will feel difficult, let alone only in his early twenties now , in the eyes of many pirates, Shanks is just a brat.

The relationship between the captain and the chief combatant has dropped to a freezing point in the past few weeks. It seems that there is some conflict. Everyone is at a loss and hopes that someone who understands can explain it.

There was nothing unusual about the captain, and he treated them with the same attitude as usual, but the other... was already so cold that people couldn't get close, and now he even breathed coldly.

Several newcomers joined in, and the young pirates had nightmares for several nights in a row, which seriously affected the sleep quality of the crew.

In this atmosphere, everyone finally came to the nearest island in the West Sea near the Inversion Mountain, which is rich in wine, and the strong aroma of wine can be smelled from a long distance away.

The long-torn hearts of the pirates came alive again. The sailor on the observation deck held the binoculars, and suddenly his expression changed, "It's the flag of the Whitebeard Pirates!"

Whitebeard Pirates is a pirate group created by "Whitebeard" Edward Newgate. Since the disbandment of Roger Pirates, it is known as the strongest pirate group in the world. The main ship is "Moby". Dick".

However, the Moby Dick is currently on the great route, and it is impossible to appear in the West Sea out of thin air. With such a large pirate group, every action of its captain will be detected by the navy, and it is impossible for them to have no news at all.

So what appears here now should be only one of the teams of the Whitebeard Pirates.

"It's okay, just dock directly." Shanks said to the sailor at the helm.

"Would it be too risky." Beckman frowned. Shanks was a little impulsive this time. After the cold war between him and Akales, his emotions were somewhat wrong.

"It's okay." Shanks smiled brightly, "It's just a team." He had fought with Whitebeard himself before-although it was Captain Roger who saved the fight in the end.

When the ship docked, Shanks and the others met with the Whitebeard Pirates. The other party was carrying wine barrels to the ship and seemed to be planning to leave.

Unlike some pirates who started to attack immediately, the Whitebeard Pirates were still very polite. They didn't do anything directly when they found the pirate ship docked, they just asked someone to inform the vice-captain who was drinking in the tavern.

As soon as the man heard that it was the red-haired pirates, he immediately put down his wine glass, and greeted him across the crowd, as if he was an old friend he hadn't seen for many years: "It's Shanks, long time no see."

His enthusiasm surprised many pirates, only a few old pirates knew that Shanks was the name of a trainee crew member on Roger's ship who had fought against them countless times.

"Tichi, long time no see." Shanks looked at the burly man in front of him with a bright smile, and it was a good thing to meet his old opponent in Xihai.

Tiqi looks fierce, but he is warm and generous, and he is nice to everyone. When he grins, he has a naive air, which can easily make people feel good.

He enthusiastically said: "I really didn't expect to meet your pirate group here. I just read the report in the newspaper a few days ago, and I thought that we might meet you in the West Sea."

"It's really unexpected, shouldn't you be active on the great route?" Shanks signaled the guards on the ship to come down, and asked another very curious question.

Tiki scratched his head, and smiled a little embarrassedly: "It will be Dad's birthday in a few weeks, and there are so many good wines in Xihai, we are thieves who came to prepare birthday gifts hahahahaha."

"That's right..." Shanks nodded, believing Teach's words, then he tilted his head to block the sight of Teach looking behind him, "What are you looking at?"

"Where is Akales? I read in the newspaper that he joined your pirate group." Tiqi naturally looked away, and spread his hands and said with emotion: "After all, he is an old acquaintance, I should say hello to him. "

"Hmm...Yakata..." Shanks looked back in distress, and soon found the white wolf who was at the back of the team, alone and pitiful.

He shouldn't be angry with Yaka, Shanks thought, knowing he was doing it for his own good.

Their relationship is so good that Shanks feels that Yaka can absolutely understand and support him, but they still have differences in philosophy.

Although this difference is just a small crack in the eyes of others.

But the closer the person is, the easier it is to be defeated by a small crack.

"Akata..." Shanks turned around, trying to find a reason to prevaricate, but Tiki smiled more honestly in the next second, and said harmlessly: "Yo, Akales, long time no see ah!"

"Yeah." Akales replied, he did not know when he had arrived behind Shanks, his eyes were calm, but his ears trembled a few times.

Is this considered reconciliation?

Shanks tentatively stretched out his hand and held the hand of the white wolf hanging at the side, heaved a sigh of relief, and his condition improved a lot, "Since we haven't seen each other for a long time, let's have a drink here before leaving, Xihai's wine is so gluttonous." me."

"Hahahaha, okay, we'll leave tomorrow, and we won't return today if we don't get drunk!" Tiqi patted his chest boldly, ignoring the doubtful eyes of his teammates in the second team, and walked beside the two of them.

"I saw your reward order before, and my father missed it for a long time!" He said with a smile, and raised his hand to rest on Akales' shoulder.

But at this moment, Shanks, who was walking on the other side, suddenly changed his position. He pulled Akales forcefully, came to the middle position by himself, and put his hand on Akales' shoulder.

"What do you miss, are we going to dye his beard red?" Shanks didn't seem to see Tiki's hand raised and put down embarrassingly, but just felt the youthful and frivolous past.

Tiqi laughed to hide his embarrassment, but there was a dark cloud in the depths of his eyes.

Is he too impatient?
