[Pirates] Retired Knight's Logbook

【106】

This reprimand will eventually come to an end, after all, we can't keep scolding.

One of the two kneeling ones was only seven years old and still crying, the other was still a wounded man, and there were his crew members watching outside who wanted to give him some face.

After Andrea calmed down, she could only hold her forehead to help the two of them get up - what kind of words would it be like to kneel there! It makes her look scary!

Andrea left Luffy to Ace Sabo and the others, and then talked to Shanks alone.

However, she did not completely calm down. She crossed her arms across her chest, narrowed her eyes slightly, and stared at the red-haired young man with a playful smile in front of her with an unhappy expression.

Shanks replied calmly: "There are no new injuries on my face."

Andrea: "...Are you planning to make me angry on purpose?"

"Of course not." Shanks smiled, "Why are you so angry, Leah?"

Andrea: "..." Every time, I wonder if this guy did it on purpose.

Naturally, she had no intention of answering this question. Instead, she took a deep breath, exhaled it slowly, and asked seriously: "How much do you know about the navy? Is the Warring States General reliable?"

Shanks was startled, the smile on his face faded, and his tone became more serious: "Why do you ask this suddenly?"

The reason why Andrea asked this was naturally because of the secret information that had been entrusted to her.

She trusted Shanks and didn't hide anything. She directly told her about the mission entrusted by Sengoku, how she went to Beihai to search for the fruits of the operation, and how she accidentally obtained information. Of course, she still won't tell Luo's identity. Bai Zhen was an endless pain to him. She would not mention it in front of others, only saying that he was her new disciple.

Shanks looked astonished: "I see... did your new disciple eat the fruit of the operation?"

Andrea was lost in thought - if Shanks could guess Luo's identity as a White Town survivor, she would consider whether hitting him with a sap would cause him to lose his memory.

Fortunately, Shanks has not progressed to become a master of reasoning. He only speculated about the results of the operation based on the mission situation that Andrea just said.

It was not surprising that Shanks could guess this and Andrea was not surprised. After asking the other party to keep it secret, she also asked about the other party's situation.

Shanks has been active in the East China Sea recently, and Windmill Village is roughly the same as the base camp. It is also because of this that the left-behind child Luffy has become familiar with him - for some reason, Luffy firmly believes that he is Andrea's child.

After Andrea learned about this incident, she was quite stunned for a while and felt a little headache: "He played with Ace and Sabo when he was a child, and then called me mom with them... It's not because of this incident that he felt His mother is me, right?"

"Hahahaha, I think that's what's going on!"

"No laughing - and what's with that rubber fruit?"

"Ah, that... I originally snatched it from CP9 with the intention of selling it for money... I didn't expect it to be eaten by Luffy like that."

When talking about this matter, Shanks showed a slightly headache expression, but he soon laughed: "But it has become like this, there is nothing we can do, forget it. Don't be angry with Luffy either." Angry."

Andrea: "..." Is she angry with Luffy? You are obviously angry with this guy!

Shanks held her hand and said in a relaxed tone: "Look, it's okay to hold hands."

"...Who told you this?" Andrea twitched the corners of her mouth and hesitated, but did not withdraw her hand.

【107】

The red-haired pirates originally came mainly for this rubber fruit, but it was accidentally eaten by Luffy... So forget it. But this also means that their journey will continue.

It can be said that it was a lucky coincidence that we just happened to catch up with Andrea coming back this time - at least we finally met her. Although he was scolded a lot.

Ace and Sabo adapted well to this.

For Beibo and Luo, who had never met Shanks before, the red-haired one of the future Four Emperors was completely stamped as a henpecked man in their minds.

Before Shanks left, he specially gave Luffy the straw hat Roger gave him, and also made an agreement with Luffy, who swore to become the Pirate King - to wait until Luffy becomes an outstanding pirate. When the time comes, return the straw hat to him. 【Note】

Andrea and the others watched from a distance and did not know this.

Shanks, on the other hand, invited Andrea to come on board again before leaving, but she refused again with an expressionless face.

"Then there's nothing we can do!" Shanks stood on the deck and shouted with a smile, "I guess it won't be so easy to come here next time. Why don't you come and see me?"

The other members of the red-haired pirate group looked at each other with condemnation - what are you talking about, boss!

When Andrea stood over there, her expression didn't change much when she heard this. She tilted her head slightly, raised her chin, and said, "Okay."

The red-haired young man was startled, then laughed and said nothing more.

The other crew members were collectively shocked - Huh? Is this okay?

As soon as Shanks and the others left, Andrea and the others divided the gifts and introduced Luo and Bebo to everyone before going home.

Although……

"Can you get your things? Don't you need help?"

"It's okay, we can take these things away, but our ship needs to be parked here, and we have to ask you to look after it more."

"It's okay, don't worry, leave it to us!" The mayor of Windmill Village patted his chest and said goodbye to the group with a smile, "You are also welcome to come and play when you are free, Ace, Sabo, Luffy, Luo, and Bebo. "

The group of children following Andrea also said hello.

"Okay, Mr. Grandpa Village Chief."

Then, after the group of people walked forward for about ten meters, they suddenly came to their senses.

"Wait! You're not from our family!"

"Luffy! You're not from over there!"

Scored twice, but this time the village chief came to talk to Luffy and it was a bit difficult. Because Luffy had already eaten the rubber fruit, this caused him to hold onto Ace and Sabo's hands tightly and refused to let go when he was pulled away. His arms turned into long strips, which made Andrea look at the corner of her mouth. One pump.

After finally finishing the trouble, Ace and Sabo were still a little frightened.

Sabo: "It seemed to be the same last time..."

Ace: "This kid is so difficult!"

Luo was still a little puzzled: "Has that kid always been like this?"

Ace and Sabo were worried about each other, and warned Luo with solemn expressions.

Sabo: "You have to be careful. Once you get entangled, it's easy to get rid of it."

Ace: "Yes, the ghost is still there."

Luo frowned, with a bit of disdain: "He's just a kid, how can he be so exaggerated?"

He didn't know at this time that he would have a profound personal experience of this later.

When the three of them gathered together to whisper, Bebo leaned next to Andrea, holding the luggage on his head.

"Miss Leia, do you still have class today?"

"Huh? Let's wait until we get home and finish packing our luggage."

The family of five finally returned to their settlement with their belongings. Although I haven't been back for nearly four years, I asked Dadan and the others to clean the house and it was still quite clean.

Andrea was quite satisfied with what she had seen, so she took out some of the treasures she brought back, packed them up, and asked Sabo and Ace to send them over to thank each other.

Luo and Bebo are responsible for helping to clean up the house together - they also need to clean up a place for them to live.

Sabo and Ace's room was already big enough, and it wouldn't be a problem to fit two more children into it. Moreover, they had been playing together along the way, and Andrea didn't intend to separate them.

However, Bebo was so furry that she felt a little reluctant to part with him.

And in such a happy atmosphere... Three days later, Andrea was staring at Ace's homework assessment, Sabo quietly tried to give Ace tips, Luo was reading a medical book, and Bebo was chasing the little butterfly. As he was running, a man in a navy uniform came to the door, holding a child in his hand.

The visitor threw the child in front of Andrea in the eyes of everyone's questions: "This unlucky child is influenced by the red hair and shouts that he wants to be a pirate all day long! You and the red hair have such a good relationship, the problems caused by the red hair You should be responsible, right? Anyway, you have so many here, not even one more!"

Andrea was stunned for a while, and then she reacted after subconsciously catching the child thrown by the other party: "Wait a minute! Lieutenant General Garp! You can educate your own grandson on your own!"

And why should she take the blame for Shanks? !

Luo looked at the uniform on the other party and couldn't help but frown - it was the navy... Is that kid the grandson of the navy?

Sabo and Ace's expressions also became solemn - and sure enough, they followed...

As for the person involved, Luffy...

Luffy, who was still resisting and shouting that he didn't want it, found that the place his grandfather took him to was full of familiar people, he immediately smiled happily and shouted to Andrea: "Mom——! "

Andrea: "..."

Garp was stunned for a moment, then looked at Andrea with shocked eyes: "It turns out it's you..."

Andrea was also shocked: "What do you mean it's me?! Don't you know who your grandson's mother is?!"

【108】

I must have been touched. ——Andrea, who was forced to accept a new child, thought quietly.

Now she especially wants to pull out her unlucky brother-in-law Gol D. Roger, whom she doesn't want to recognize at all, and whip his corpse out - look who you entrusted to your care before you die! I can't take care of the children at all, so I can still entrust him with a reverse entrustment!

After being made a fuss like this, Andrea only realized after Lieutenant General Garp left the child and ran away with oil on his feet - No! In fact, it’s okay to give that information to Lieutenant General Garp, right? !

After all, she still trusts Lieutenant General Garp, and the other party also trusts her, and the rank of Lieutenant General is high enough... Forget it, I won't chase after everyone has left.

Anyway, looking at this grandson's behavior, it seems a bit unreliable. If you accidentally lose the information before giving it to the Warring States General, it will be over.

As for Luffy's appearance... Andrea was a little worried at first.

Unlike Luo, Luo was the oldest and had a lot of experience and a more mature personality. Boys originally liked playing with older children, so the three of them quickly became familiar with each other.

As for Luffy...the last time they met was when this little boy was three years old. Sabo and Ace were pestered.

This time... I'm still being pestered.

It’s just that last time there were three people surrounding Andrea, but this time they changed people.

Luo: "I still want to read! Stop hanging around me! It's very annoying!"

The three of them were quite obedient and changed their reference point, but this time Andrea spoke.

Andrea: "Stop hanging around little Beibo! You're making everyone faint!"

There was no other way, Bebo couldn't ignore them, so he followed the autobiography, but ended up fainting himself first.

Andrea was initially worried that Luffy would be sad if he was the youngest and couldn't fit in with the family...and then she soon realized that she was overthinking it.

Both Ace and Sabo were almost losing their temper after being tortured, but Luffy was still in good spirits, with a big smile on his face, as if he didn't know what was going on.

It's not without clues if you think about it carefully. Just like Andrea said "I'm really not your mother" many times, Sabo and Ace also emphasized "our mother is not your mother" many times. He still stubbornly called her mom, and he shouted happily, as if he had never been denied.

Andrea was the first to give up struggling, but Sabo and Ace were still working stubbornly.

After Luo watched coldly for a while, he asked about Andrea.

"Teacher Leia, do you really don't need to worry about them?" Luo asked with a frown, "I heard before that Ace and Sabo seemed to be playing pranks on Luffy to scare him."

Andrea was combing Bebo's hair with a comb at that time - the weather here in Goa Kingdom is warm, and Bebo's hair loss is quite severe.

"It's okay, don't worry about them." She smiled after hearing this, "Who do you want to be friends with, who do you want to have a better relationship with, how to deal with your interpersonal relationships... Even children have their own ideas. Even if I am an adult, Also respect their ideas and decisions.”

"As their mother, I just need to help them carry the bag when they dig it out. Of course, if they get into trouble, I will also scold and punish them." Andrea put down the comb and looked at To Luo who was thoughtful, "So are you, Luo."

"Huh?" Luo looked over in confusion.

"Although you are not my child, you are my disciple, so to speak. And I am also your elder." Andrea said with a smile, "You are the same as everyone else."

Luo: "...Yeah."

Bebo turned his head and said a little anxiously: "Miss Lia, what about me?"

Andrea smiled and rubbed Bebo's head: "Bebo, you are the mascot of our family and you have a special status."

Bebo held his face in his hands: "Yeah——"

Luo: "..." I always feel that Bebo has made something wrong... Forget it, it is a mascot anyway, so let it remain innocent and happy.

And in this atmosphere... Three days later, the access time has passed, and the three little ones who went out early in the morning have not returned yet, including Luo, who went to find the three later, and Bebo, who always likes to follow Luo.

Andrea frowned and began to feel worried from the bottom of her heart. Just when she was about to look for them, a few finally came back, although they were all dirty.

The most miserable one is Bebo, who changed from a white bear to a grizzly bear probably because he was covered in fur.

Among the remaining four, Luo was slightly better. The three little ones were each dirtier than the last and their clothes were in tatters. But there was still uneasiness and worry on Luo's face, and the three looked happy and confident.

Andrea stared at them expressionlessly. Sabo and Ace noticed something. Their smiles gradually faded, and they began to stand up straight and their faces tightened. Only Luffy kept his sun-like smile and shouted "Old man" happily. Mom, we are back and I am hungry.”

Andrea was deadlocked for a while, then lowered her head and held her forehead with a headache: "You're so dirty! You guys! Go take a shower and clean yourself first!"

Forget it, the Devonshire family doesn't want to spank their children.

And after the group of children came out noisily after washing and changing clothes, Andrea was about to ask where these naughty children had gone when they looked like this... She saw Ace walking out with a towel on his head. He also made a heroic declaration: "Since we are brothers, then naturally my mother will also be your mother!"

Andrea: "..."

Although their family doesn't like to spank their children, it doesn't mean that they can't spank their children!
