Pirates: Be the Master from the East China Sea

"The battle is over, what are you going to do next?"

After witnessing Fubuki's body with his own eyes, Luo Qi rubbed his forehead again, always feeling that some strange things were pouring into his memory, but those things quickly faded away after the influx, making him not even It's clear what exactly happened.

I can vaguely remember that the memories that poured in were about a conversation between a middle-aged man and someone else.

There is also a place with a huge space.

There are also statues standing there.

What you can see after walking out of that space is an auditorium. In the auditorium, a man who looks exactly like him and has the same name is speaking. These things are obviously meaningless fragments.

And is the person who witnessed all this really the same person?

Roach looked up at the sky.

He began to think, and he couldn't help but want to know something curiously.

That is what exactly is oneself?

He suddenly remembered Mr. Freud's theory about his id, ego and superego.

Information rushes into my mind like an electric current.

What is the id?

The id is the original self, which refers to the original self and contains the basic desires, impulses and vitality needed for survival.The id is the source of all psychological energy. It acts according to the pleasure principle. It ignores social morality and external behavioral norms. Its only requirement is to obtain happiness and avoid pain. The goal of the id is to seek individual comfort. , survival and reproduction, it is unconscious and not noticed by the individual.

Freud believes that children's spiritual personality belongs entirely to the self. Children have no concept of shame and their entire lives are dominated by desires. Regardless of conditions and social morality, they always seek to satisfy their own wishes and seek pleasure.He said that children ignore society's set of norms and "they let their bestiality come naturally."Children often express egoism openly when they are young.However, as children grow older and accumulate experience, and under the influence of education and customs, they will no longer blindly pursue satisfaction, gradually become aware of current affairs, and differentiate themselves from their own selves.

So what is self?

The self in psychology is a very complex concept. This concept is a key concept constructed by many schools of psychology. Although the usage of each school is different, it generally refers to the conscious part of the individual.

The self is the psychological component of personality, which is gradually differentiated from the id and is located in the middle layer of the personality structure.Its main function is to adjust the contradiction between the id and the superego. On the one hand, it regulates the id, and on the other hand, it is controlled by the superego.It follows the reality principle and meets the requirements of the ego in a reasonable way.

Here, the reality principle temporarily suspends the pleasure principle.Thus, the individual learns to distinguish between thoughts in the mind and thoughts in the external world that surrounds the individual.The self regulates within itself and its environment.

Freud believed that the self is the executor of personality.

The superego is more complicated.

The superego is the regulator in the personality structure, governed by the principle of perfection, and belongs to the moral part of the personality structure.It is located at the highest level of the personality structure and is the moral self. It is internalized by social norms, ethics and values, and its formation is the result of socialization.

The superego follows moral principles and has three functions: first, to suppress the impulses of the id, second, to monitor the self, and third, to pursue a perfect state.

Id, ego and superego make up a person's personality.

But does it constitute Roach’s personality?

"After all...am I still considered a human being now?" Roach stretched out his right hand and looked at his palm prints quietly. Some strange thoughts flashed through his mind, and those thoughts made him feel even more confused.

Of course he can't be considered human now.

He has become a god.

However, there is a huge difference between the godhead and personality. The godhead is only the foundation of being a god, just like a person's limbs. If the godhead is damaged or in more serious cases collapses, then a god will face The power drops extremely and even loses the basic power of a god and becomes no different from an ordinary life, but it does not affect a god's thoughts or will.

Therefore, the godhead is not a substitute or upgraded version of personality.

The two are completely different things.

But for me who has become a god, can I really have a personality now?If personality is really composed of id, ego and superego, will I still have a superego now?

God is not subject to any restrictions, so there is no so-called taboo.

Even if there are some bottom lines as a human being in the beginning.

But as the time for him to look down on all living beings after becoming a god becomes longer, his thoughts and will will naturally undergo a certain degree of alienation. Just like now, when Luo Qi sees a person killing someone, he won't have any fluctuations deep in his heart.

He felt as if one hound had killed another hound.

Of course, it doesn’t have to be a hunting dog.

Whether it is a cheetah on the grassland, an insect in the forest, or a monkey, the feelings are actually the same.

Now Roach has undoubtedly transcended human status.

Then of course he can no longer be counted as a human being.

Because whether it is physical ability or ideological differences, there has been an extremely huge gap between him and humans. However, as a god transformed from a human, Roach will inevitably fall into a kind of self-perception. In contradiction and confusion.

After all, he was not born with the Holy Spirit.

It's like a monkey suddenly turned into a human, wearing a tie and a suit, speaking human words, and eating human food. As time goes by, he will become more and more aware of his identity as a human being. , and forget his thoughts and feelings when he was a monkey, he will understand monkeys less and less.

But when he saw monkeys in the zoo, he would inevitably have some fluctuations in his heart.

Because after all, he couldn't completely reconstruct his memory.

Those memories will inevitably have some impact on his cognition, causing him to have slight shakes and doubts about his cognition as a human being. He will wonder whether he has really completely gotten rid of his self-awareness as a monkey. .

Can I really be considered a complete human being?

Logically speaking, it should be considered so.

Because whether it is the external appearance and body, or the internal thoughts and spirit, he has become a fully authentic human being. The only special thing is that there are still some memories of when he was a monkey in his mind.

But isn’t my past self a part of me?

After all, he was once a monkey.

If my past as a monkey is really meaningless, then what is the meaning of my present as a human?

Anyway, all the present will eventually become the past.

"I feel so confused..."

Luo Qi raised his head and stared at the sky sadly, troubled by the melancholy that he could not dispatch.

Troubled by the monkey's doubts.
