One Piece Game Life

Chapter 23 Farewell

A few hours ago, on the streets of the small town of Terai

People looked at this visitor curiously, walking with a smile under the humble and prudent leadership of the most "powerful" person on the island, Abt, and a line-up of more than a dozen naval soldiers to greet him.

Is he just a little old man with no characteristics? Why was Lord Abt so reserved in front of him?

The residents of the town speculated on the identity of the old man.

The somewhat stooped body and casual summer clothes did not reveal the depth of this amiable old man at all, and the way he responded to Abt with a smile did not have the air of a master. He neither looked like a noble nor a naval expert. Why did Abbot treat this man with such courtesy?

"About, don't be so nervous. You see, the residents are frightened by your appearance. This is not good for the image you have created in the past, haha."

Seeing the confused faces of the townspeople talking to each other, the old man teased Aibt, and the latter nodded sarcastically.

Then the old man said seriously: "Now is your time, don't pay attention to the messy past. The Purple Snake no longer exists, and the one standing here is just a bad old man..."

"No, teacher. You will always be the most powerful admiral in my heart!" The old man's sigh did not make Abt feel any disrespect at all. Instead, the latter bowed slightly and said with full admiration.

"Haha, then why don't you work hard and show me that you are still a little lieutenant? This can't live up to my expectations of you. I know you were tripped up by the child's departure, but you haven't regretted it yet. It’s too late…”

"Teacher! Let's go to my house to rest for a while. I'll go see Lucy later."

The old man, oh no, he was the former Purple Snake General. He laughed and reprimanded his unsatisfactory but talented apprentice. Abt, who still wanted to save some face in front of the townspeople, took the initiative to change the topic.

"No, I'm tired of being on the boat for so long. Take me directly to meet the so-called mysterious bounty hunter. Also, it's true that I haven't seen your little Lucy for a long time..."

"dad?!"

The two of them were talking, but unexpectedly Lucy's shout of surprise came from the distance. Today, it happened to be her turn to buy ingredients.

The happy reunion left people with endless words to talk about, but the chatting between the master, his disciples, his disciples, and his father and daughter ended there. The three of them took the purchased supplies together and walked to the wooden house on the back mountain while talking and laughing.

But on the way, Kuhn caught sight of this group of people.

"Lodis! Uncle Abt brought an old man here! He said he wanted to take Lucy away!"

"what?!"

Kuhn, who was happy to tease his good brother, did not miss this opportunity and rushed to the cabin first. He opened his mouth with bluffing words. Lodis, who was eating barbecue, almost choked to death.

"Haha, I lied to you. Lucy has only been practicing for more than a year, how could she give up halfway? However, I did see just now that Uncle Abt came with Lucy, and there was an old man beside him, right? Could it be Grandpa Lucy or something coming to visit her?”

"You guy, you're teasing me again... But I really haven't heard anything about Lucy's ancestors. Well, who is this old man and what is he here for..." After swallowing the meat with difficulty, Luo Dis looked at Kuhn helplessly and began to think.

The two boys who were puzzled soon got their answers:

"Lucy will leave soon, and she may never come back here again. If you have any parting words, please talk about it."

"what?!"

After the old man and his group arrived, he and Yinluo just went into the room to chat for a while, and then the latter greeted Luodis and Kun.

Ignoring the shock and confusion of the two boys, Yinluo waved his hand and closed the door. The content of the subsequent conversation was not just as simple as Lucy's stay or stay. Yin Luo was really surprised by the information that this old man, who was regarded as one of the top combat power in the world, came into contact with.

The two people who looked confused quickly realized what they were doing and found Lucy who was sitting in a daze on a boulder by the lake, and then they asked for answers.

It turns out that as a strong man of the past era, the former Purple Snake General - Old Man Rafson, what he was most interested in doing after retiring was to cultivate talented people, which was different from Black Wrist Zefa. Instead of serving as an instructor at the Naval Academy, he traveled around and trained talents ranging from navy to businessmen and even pirates! Anyone who interests him is willing to give him a promotion.

What he upholds as a standard is immortal justice. Even businessmen and thieves, or evil pirates, will have an indelible sense of justice in their hearts, so it doesn't hurt to teach them a few tricks. Although his behavior has brought a lot of trouble to the navy and himself, the old man still enjoys it.

Raphson, who is accomplished in domineering, swordsmanship, and physical skills, even has a deep understanding of fruit abilities. What Abut learned from was his most proficient swordsmanship! Abt, who was thinking that his daughter might be just like him and had some talent for swordsmanship, met the traveling master not long ago and asked him to give his beloved daughter a test.

Feeling that his valued apprentice "repented" after a few years of depression, Raphson agreed to the request and came happily. After hearing Yinluo's story on the way, the old man also became interested and decided to stop by. Come meet this mysterious bounty hunter.

Before the others came to the back mountain, Rafelson also conducted a weird test on Lucy...

"It's nothing...it's just that Master asked me to look at a few pictures..."

Being a little shy when the two little boys next to her approached her and asked, Lucy's pretty face was as red as an apple, she squeezed the little white skirt she had just put on when she went home, and answered in a clear voice.

"What's so interesting about just a few pictures? Are you going to leave just because of this..." He asked hurriedly, and Rodis suddenly became depressed. He felt a little uncomfortable for some reason, as if he was holding on to something.

Sitting on the other side of the boulder, Kuen looked at Lodis' sluggish state. While secretly cursing himself for being poisonous, he opened his mouth to break the awkward silence.

"Lucy hasn't finished speaking yet. Why are you so anxious, Rodis? By the way, that picture should be related to becoming stronger."

"Well, Kuhn is still so smart. Yes, the picture shows the villains dancing with swords. When I saw the picture, I understood which way I was pursuing to become stronger... Lodis , you should be happy for me, I finally found the path that Teacher Yinluo asked me to find on my own..."

With the same firmness in her eyes as before, Lucy said to Lodis with determination, but also smiled.

"Well, yes, why am I frustrated, haha... Yes, you are very good at physical skills, swordsmanship, and shooting, but you still need to specialize in one. Yes, this is a good thing, haha . However, we may meet again on the sea in the future. Everyone, come on..."

Hahahaha, Rodis replied with an ugly smile, and then turned over and jumped off the boulder, with a complex expression on his face.

"I... will prepare a farewell gift. Let's talk..."

I don't know why, but I suddenly felt like I wanted to avoid Lucy. With tangled emotions, Rodis left.

The boy's figure disappeared into the jungle. Kun and Lucy sat silently on the boulder, keeping a subtle distance for an unknown amount of time.

"Sorry... I didn't know I would leave in such a hurry."

"Why are you apologizing? Things are unpredictable after all. No one knows what will happen tomorrow. You don't need to apologize."

Lucy, who lowered her head and played with the folds of her skirt, was the first to speak. Something happened suddenly and she was about to leave before she could say anything, which made the two friends worry that it was her own fault.

Kun shook his head to deny his apology, looked at Lucy who lowered her head and said nothing, and spoke in a deep voice.

"We have been together for a year, and I also understand your character. Since you have already said that you want to leave, it means that you have made up your mind. I will not say more nonsense about persuasion. I wish you good luck..."

Saying that, Kuen also turned over and climbed off the boulder. After a pause, seeing that Lucy still had no reaction, he sighed secretly.

"Hey, in short, no matter where you are, let's work hard. I hope we can all realize our dreams in the future."

"Do you think we will change? Kuhn?"

The departing figure paused and looked back.

On the boulder, the girl in a spotless white dress stood up, covering the sun with one hand and looking at the sky. The ponytail, as blue as the sky, was swaying in the wind, and his words contained confusion and longing for the future.

"Yes, and no. We are living today, aren't we?"

Replied with words of unknown meaning, the boy smiled and left.

The girl seemed to understand this sentence instantly. The sun-shading palms closed together, and Lucy seemed to have caught something, and responded happily:

"Ok!"
