Pirate's Freedom

Chambord Islands.

After walking through the long steps with railings on both sides, on the raised hill, you will find the dome-shaped stone longhouse next to the No. 13 Arqi mangrove tree - Xia Qi's rip-off BAR.

"I really didn't expect... Lieutenant General Kuzan, who has been silent all this time... can do this to this extent..."

The guest with bottles of wine in front of him sighed inarticulately after taking another gulp of wine.

"At the last moment... it suddenly broke out. He held Kaido alone for two days and two nights. He was completely... desperate..."

"Ah~"

A drinker put down his glass and sighed helplessly.

"What's the use... In the end, we didn't wait until Lieutenant General Sakaski's support arrived..."

The [Celestial Dragon Auction Incident] more than a month ago, under the high-pressure control of the world government, has always been in a state... that can only be understood but cannot be expressed for the residents of the Chambord Islands...

not to mention.

Nowadays, the ups and downs of "Advancing the War" that are the focus on the surface have affected everyone's hearts. Under the hint of the World Government, major newspapers have tacitly reported on the war situation.

Even in this extortion bar, where ordinary drinkers would never come except for stupid people and people with ulterior motives, there are now customers in twos and threes putting tables together, holding newspapers and talking loudly.

"Where is the support? As far as I'm concerned, that cold guy had no intention of supporting him in the first place!"

A 'boom' sound!A small wooden barrel with a handle slammed heavily on the table, spilling some rum liquid, and the burly man with a beard said angrily.

"What else does the newspaper say about preserving our vitality?! It's basically just watching the soldiers die!"

"What's the problem with [Absolute Justice]?! It's [The Age of Great Pirates] right now!"

The drinker, waving the newspaper in his hand, his cheeks flushed, foaming at the mouth with excitement.

"Civilians are in danger! Pirates are rampant in the world! Only a completely merciless approach is the right thing to do!"

"Who would like that executioner?! How could a guy with no enthusiasm become a marshal! The navy of the future must uphold [Burning Justice]!"

With the conscious focus of the newspaper driven by the upper management, every decision of the [three generals] in the future will be reported in depth, and their respective justices will also begin to be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Of course, due to the problem that the base is too small, this bar has not yet appeared [ A proponent of ambiguous justice].

The two people with red faces and thick necks couldn't argue. Seeing that neither one was convinced by the other, the burly man turned back to the direction of the bar and asked for support from the figure on the high stool.

"You think so? Lao Lei!"

"It doesn't matter whether it is or not! I'm just a bad old man. I can't afford to wait for a bet that will be revealed in 20 years!"

Wearing a coater's canvas work clothes, Rayleigh, who had just returned from work, raised his glass and saluted him from a distance, and laughed.

"Hahahaha~~"

The guests in the bar who were attracted by this movement shook their heads, unable to do anything about this gambler and drunkard.

"Xia Qi, you heard it too, what did you say?"

Someone yelled.

"I can't control things that far away. Whoever becomes the marshal has nothing to do with me. It's only true that business is getting better."

Behind the bar, the fashionable beauty with a hot figure wiped the wine glass nonchalantly and answered without raising her head.

"Hey~ It's too perfunctory! Xia Qi! You are an [Information Officer]! Tell us something we don't know!"

To be honest, most people here are baffled by the old-young couple Xia Qi and Lei Li, and there are even some people who are secretly poking fun at them.

"Okay! No problem!"

Xia Qi raised her eyebrows, raised her head, and raised her index finger to everyone.

"However, the minimum payment is 100 million pele."

The guests in the bar were silent, first staring at Xia Qi's fingers for a while, then looking at each other for a moment, and finally——

"It's gone! It's gone! It's so boring!"

"Drink! Drink! Everyone drink!"

"Cut~!"

Xia Qi changed her finger with disdain.

……

"The situation in the new world is already a mess. The [Emperor Alliance] first conquered the city, followed by the navy's all-out counterattack that was not to be outdone... The [Balmung Recapture War] broke out suddenly, and it was close in a short period of time. It was so intense that BIGMOM, Kaido, and most of the navy gathered there were completely unable to move. Even Whitebeard, who had been watching from the sidelines, could not get out at this time..."

On the high stool next to Reilly, his figure and appearance were completely different from those in the past. Sebastian, who looked ordinary, rested his elbows on the bar, took a sip of wine and continued.

"The pieces on the chessboard are clear one by one, and the winning and losing hands are gradually revealed."

"Should I say this is an opportunity not to be missed? Haha~ I'm also very curious..."

Reilly shook the glass in his hand thoughtfully, listening to the crisp sound of ice cubes hitting the wall of the glass...

"Give Erwin a message!"

After drinking the amber liquid in the glass in one gulp and chewing the ice cubes in his mouth, Riley grinned.

"If I have the chance, I will catch up with old friends."

"Be sure to bring it, Mr. Reilly."

Sebastian also laughed.

"I am here to express my sincere gratitude to you on behalf of the boss."

……

"Hancock, you saw the supernova too, how do you feel?"

Xia Qi, who was wiping wine glasses, was having nothing to do, teasing Little Red Riding Hood who had half of the bar next to her.

"It's nothing special."

Hancock, whose face was hidden under a red hood, raised the corners of his mouth, revealing a somewhat dazzling and boring smile.

"Then you are very powerful~!"

"Isn't it natural..."

He volunteered to follow him, but Hancock, who was a little idle at this time, looked through the wine cabinet and read the origin and description on the wine bottles one by one.

"Xia Qi, what kind of wine is this?"

The logo was painted with bright bubbles and ripples, and the exquisite wine bottle with [JEREZ] written on it attracted Hancock's attention.

Xia Qi took a look.

"This is a famous local wine, [Sherry] brewed in wooden barrels made from Yangshu Eve."

Holding the neck of the emerald green wine bottle with his right hand, he tapped it with his white thumb. The cork flew out with a bang, and Hancock's nose twitched slightly.

"It smells like sunshine...Xia Qi, I want to try it."

"No, minors are not allowed to drink."

Xia Qi refused.

"what is the relationship!"

Hancock raised his neck unconvinced and pointed at the guests who were chatting and drinking.

"Those messy guys are no match for me! Erwin also admitted it, I am already a sea warrior on my own, why can't I drink?"

"Hmm... That makes sense. I'll ask Erwin, if he agrees..."

Xia Qi put her finger on her chin, nodded slightly and pretended to think.

"Tch~ It's boring...forget it! I'm not interested anymore!"

Hancock turned his head away pretending to be disdainful, his eyes wandering aimlessly.

Xia Qi smiled and stopped talking.

After a moment, something caught Hancock's eye.

"Xia Qi, what's going on with that strange photo?"

Following her finger, Xia Qi looked over.

"You mean that...it was written by Rayleigh's old friend. He wanted us to hand it over to someone, but then he changed his mind for some reason. I think few people can say such reasonable things, so he just left it It stayed."

In the tall small photo frame placed on the wine cabinet, there is a crumpled note——

[People will become weak because they love others... But, Tata Tot, this is not a shameful thing, because it is not real weakness. 】
