The logbook of a retired knight

【52】

Andrea fell into silence, feeling a little tangled for a while.

But fortunately, Shanks is her trusted friend, and the other party used to be Roger's crew member. Looking at him still wearing the straw hat said to be given to him by Roger, he knew that the other party had a good relationship with Roger. For deep.Especially tonight when she heard Shanks talk about Roger's tone, she can also judge this point.

After thinking about this, Andrea also relaxed a little from her tense state.She stared at Shanks, her tone threatening: "You won't say it, will you?"

"Hahahaha, that's for sure." Shanks laughed, and resumed his usual tone and expression, "Speaking of...does Ace know about this?"

"I'm going to tell him when he's ten years old. At that time, he has stronger judgment...so don't say anything to Ace."

"Don't worry, it won't." After Shanks finished laughing, his expression restrained a little, "But in this way... Leah, you will have a harder time."

"Huh?" Andrea glanced at him, and after understanding the hidden meaning in his words, she also smiled, "He was my nephew, and now he is my son. It's not so hard, it's better to say that I am simple. Just protecting my family."

It was already very late today, and the two of them didn't talk any more.

In fact, there is no need to say much, basically the unfinished words are clear to both of them.

"Your pirate group has already begun to take shape." After a while of silence, Andrea changed the topic, and it was also a feeling from the bottom of her heart-the three of them back then, Hawkeye and she, all liked to work alone The Lone Ranger, Shanks wants to form the Pirates wholeheartedly.

"Yeah, so Leah, do you want to join my pirate team?"

"I reject."

Andrea returned to the room, looked at the two children who were sleeping crookedly, with a faint smile on her face——damn it!Sabo obviously slept well before, but now he is also infected by Ace!

She sighed helplessly, and went to hug the two children, who could no longer see the direction they were sleeping in before, back to their normal sleeping position, covered them with the quilt, and lay down on the bed beside her to rest.

The family of three without any blood relationship here officially entered the rest, while the red-haired pirates and the rest of the group were muttering.

It's not without reason for them to gossip like this... Although none of them has seen the sword ghost, they have more or less heard of each other's reputation.In particular, Shanks and Hawkeye have a good relationship. The two often exchange ideas and fights, and after the fights, they start a banquet...and then they always mention Sword Demon.

Moreover, because both of them know that Andrea doesn't like her friends calling her nicknames, it's not like the two call each other "redhead" and "hawk eye", but they all call Andrea "Lee". Asia".

This also laid a good foundation for further outrageous rumors.

At this time, everyone in the Red Hair Pirates just thought that Sword Demon, his captain and Hawkeye were very good friends. ——They didn't know that this was the moment they were closest to the truth.

Then when the news that Sword Demon and Hawkeye had a child came out, Shanks looked surprised, and was still muttering to himself something like "it doesn't feel possible", everyone just thought it was his own captain Dumbness didn't realize that his two friends were together.

Then, Shanks accidentally met Blackbeard Titch and was injured during the battle with him, and then fought Hawkeye again, and it was still under the nose of Whitebeard, and Whitebeard left behind the two. I was deeply impressed... At this time, everyone is simply discussing each other.

Shanks curiously asked about "that child" at the back, seeing that Hawkeye's habitual facial paralysis suddenly became a little tangled, but he didn't deny it... Everyone also assumed that the rumor was true of.

Until later, they had to go to the East China Sea for some business, walked back from the New World, and came to the Chambord Islands, where they learned about [Sword Demon himself said that he likes red hair].

In fact, this kind of gossip is only passed on in private, but it can't stand the person who was rejected by Andrea, in order to save his respect, and basically many pirates just watch the excitement and don't think it's a big deal, so they spread the matter. ——Especially because the news of One Piece World has a certain lag. After this incident broke out, the battle between Shanks and Hawkeye was spread.

The members of the red-haired pirates were dumbfounded and went to question their captain one after another.

"Boss, what's going on?!"

"Boss, what's going on with you and Sword Demon!?"

"No, it's time to ask you three what's going on, right?!"

And Shanks smiled back after showing a surprised expression: "Yeah...hahahaha, what's going on?"

Everyone: "..." Boss, are you pretending to be stupid?You must be playing dumb this time, right?

A group of people thought that there would be no follow-up to this incident... Then today they opened their eyes.

Because Sword Demon is not a pirate, but a well-known bounty hunter, but there is no arrest warrant, and her appearance is only rumored to be a great beauty.See you today, indeed.

Moreover, it seems that he has a good relationship with his own captain.

But... isn't it said that it is a son? !How did it become two? !

A group of people looked at Sabo and Ace, thinking deeply at the same time.

Fortunately, when Shanks and Andrea went to talk, they helped to watch Sabo and Ace. They also had a good impression of these two brave and thoughtful children, and they also liked to tease children.

Because of this, I learned that Ace is Andrea's son, but Sabo is not.

Meanwhile also……

"Huh? Mihawk is not my father." Ace gnawed on an apple and replied calmly, "That's what Lia's mother said. She said that I will know when I grow up."

At this moment, the expressions of the group of people were like a bolt from the blue, each of them became dignified, and they got together to continue thinking.

"So it's not Hawkeye!"

"Then is it possible that the boss..."

"Stupid! The boss is red-haired!"

"But Sword Demon has black hair!"

"...Ah, yes."

Ben Beckman saw the group of people's guesses getting more and more outrageous, the corner of his mouth twitched and was about to interrupt, the Shanks was dragged away by Andrea by the collar, passing by their side , and greeted them with a laugh.

Beckman couldn't help but be silent - bad, he didn't ask Shanks, and suddenly felt that he couldn't rule out this possibility.

After thinking about it, it wasn't a big deal, and Beckman didn't bother with it in the end, instead chatting with Ace and Sabo.

The group of them got along very well with these two children.

Because of this, on the second day, when Andrea took Shanks to continue the discussion again, she threw the child to them for care.

Then, with this care, something went wrong.

All of this stems from an unlucky guy who said inadvertently, "So Ace's hair color is inherited from your mother, so your father's hair color may be whatever."

Then Ace suddenly showed a stunned expression.

Although Ace is not very brainy, he is not without brains.He remembered that his mother clarified to himself that Mihawk was not his father after she said that she "likes red hair".

Then, Shanks is red-haired;

Then, Shanks and his mother met.

Ace always felt that he understood something, and ran to Shanks with a serious face.

He is not a child who can bend around, so he asked directly: "Shanks, are you my father?"

He didn't expect the captain's son to come to this conclusion at all. Shanks was stunned for a while before he realized why the other party had such an illusion... But he also promised Andrea not to tell the truth, so he was also very rare. Stuck for a while.

Shanks: "Uh..."

He thought for a while, then squatted down and said with a serious face: "I don't care about this, your mother has the final say."
