Lu Jiu smiled slightly, shook her head slightly and said, "I know my body well."

Bai Tu was about to say something else, when someone knocked on the door.

"I'm going to see who's coming." Bai Tu said, putting Ace next to Lujiu, and ran to open the door.

Bai Tu opened the door and found Garp.

"What's wrong?" Bai Tu walked out of the room and closed the door.

"We will all evacuate tomorrow. Have you thought about what will happen next?" Garp asked Bai Tu.

"I plan to take care of Ace with Lujiu. Regarding the navy matter, I may not be able to continue." Bai Tu said with a somewhat helpless tone.

"Aren't you going to continue looking for someone?" Garp remembered the reason why Bai Tu joined the navy.

"You may not believe it, but I seem to have found the person in my dream. But the moment I hugged Ace, I was sure that he was the person I had been looking for and the person I wanted to protect in the future." Bai Tu opened his mouth with a smile, his eyes bright, as if he had found his target.

Garp was silent for a moment, then continued: "Although I know what you are thinking, I still need to persuade you what you are going to do to take care of your family if you leave the navy. Do you still want to be a pirate?"

"You should know better than anyone how dangerous it is to be a pirate now, and you have to consider whether Lujiu's physical condition is suitable for following you around. I still hope that you will not leave the navy for the time being, at least you can take care of the family, and There’s still time to come back.”

Bai Tu listened to Garp's words, thought carefully, and then nodded.

"What you said also makes sense."

Bai Tu sighed, looked at Garp and said, "Then I will trouble you again from now on."

Bai Tu chatted with Garp for a while, and then returned to the room to see if Lujiu had drank the medicine.

Back in the room, Bai Tu found that Lujiu seemed to be asleep, and Ace next to him kept crying.

Bai Tu had a vague premonition and quickly ran over to check on Lujiu.

"Lujiu? Lujiu!"

Bai Tu touched Lu Jiu who had stopped breathing, with a little confusion in his eyes.

"What's wrong?" Garp outside the room heard the cries of the children in the room and ran into the house with Bai Tu's scream.

Bai Tu licked her dry lips and followed Garp bitterly: "Garp, Lujiu, is dead."

Garp remained silent, then raised his hand and patted Bai Tu's shoulder.

Ace on the bed was still crying. Bai Tu didn't have to be sad for long because Ace still needed him.

Bai Tu simply cleaned up Lu Jiu and did not hold a funeral for Lu Jiu. He found a place where he could see the sea and buried Lu Jiu there.

The next day, Bai Tu hugged Ace and led a cow onto the navy ship.

"Warrant Officer, what are you doing?" A navy officer looked at the child in Bai Tu's arms and couldn't help but feel confused.

"I adopted this child. His father died early, and his mother was so frightened by this incident that she died after giving birth. I thought this child was very pitiful and blamed us, so I decided Adopt this child." Bai Tu briefly introduced Ace's life experience.

"Is that so?" The marine looked at Ace in Bai Tu's arms with great sympathy.

Garp looked at Bai Tu silently.

It's so eloquent. I thought he was a simple child, but I didn't expect him to be stupid. Every sentence is true, and no names are mentioned in every sentence.

The ship started to set off and returned to the naval base to resume operations.

In the next year, Bai Tu took Ace out to sea until Ace was one year old. After Garp's suggestion, Bai Tu put Ace in Windmill Town and asked people Garp knew to take care of Ace. Go back to see Ace every once in a while.

......

"Huh~" Bai Tu exhaled a breath of white breath, then rubbed his hands and looked at the heavy snow flying in the sky. He raised his hand and pulled the hood over his head.

"Really, what did that pirate think, hiding in a place like this? It looks like a place with very few resources."

Bai Tu said and started walking towards the distant town.

Halfway through, Bai Tu seemed to hear faint breathing.

"Is it here?"

Bai Tu followed the sound and found a thinly dressed child in the snow, covered with snow.

"Whose child is this?"

Bai Tu frowned slightly, and then checked the child. When he saw that the child was breathing, he picked her up and wrapped her in a cloak.

After doing this, Bai Tu started running towards the town without stopping.

"Kid, wake up. The kid is insisting. Talk to your sister." Bai Tu kept talking to the little girl in his arms along the way, hoping that the other girl's consciousness would be restored.

So warm, who is calling me?

The little girl opened her eyes with difficulty and looked at Bai Tu with confusion.

Perhaps it was the extremely cold weather and the fact that she hadn't eaten food for a long time. She was so weak at this time that she couldn't even see clearly.

Vaguely, the little girl seemed to see her mother.

"Mother...."

The little girl screamed softly, then passed out again.

Although the little girl's voice was very low, Bai Tu still heard it.

In order to make the little girl's desire for survival stronger, Bai Tu decided to tell a little lie.

"That's right, it's mom, daughter. Mom is here to see you. You have to hold on and see mom."

Perhaps Bai Tu's words had an effect. The little girl clutched Bai Tu's clothes tightly and murmured for her mother.

Bai Tu didn't want to waste a moment and ran towards the town quickly.

When they arrived in the town, Bai Tu found a room in a small hotel, and then filled a basin of hot water to wipe the little girl's body and let her body warm up.

After wiping the little girl's body, Bai Tu made another bowl of rice porridge and started feeding the little girl bit by bit.

"Speaking of which, why does this kid look so familiar? But most of the people I'm familiar with are pirates or wanted criminals."

Bai Tu put the feeding bowl aside, and then took out a notebook from his bag, which contained various wanted posters collected by Bai Tu.

Bai Tu flipped through the pages and finally found the page about the little girl.

"The son of the devil, Nico Robin? It's really ironic, he's obviously just a child." Bai Tu frowned slightly, then closed the book.

"mom!"

Robin on the bed suddenly shouted for her mother, waving her hands constantly, and tears flowed from her closed eyes.

Bai Tu moved a stool and sat beside Robin's bed, raised his hand and patted Robin gently, coaxing softly.

"It's okay, you're safe now."

Maybe Bai Tu's words were useful, or maybe Robin felt reassured when he grabbed Bai Tu's hand while waving, and Robin's frown relaxed.

When Bai Tu saw Robin falling asleep, he didn't free his hand from Robin's. He just stayed with Robin beside the bed.

At night, Robin suddenly developed a high fever. Bai Tu gave Robin some anti-fever medicine and asked her to take it.

After Bai Tu took care of Robin for a day and a night, Robin's high fever finally subsided.

Bai Tu breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Robin's fever subsided, and then went out to buy some things and investigate the news about the pirate he wanted to arrest.

When Bai Tu came back after finishing everything, Robin had already woken up.

"Are you awake? Are you hungry? I bought some food and came back." Bai Tu said and took out all the things.

Robin didn't speak, just held the quilt tightly and stared at Bai Tu warily.

"Little guy, don't look at me so warily. I found you in the snow, and you almost froze to death there."

Bai Tu said and handed the food to Robin.

Robin looked at the food in Bai Tu's hand, hesitated for a long time, then took the food and started eating.

Seeing Robin starting to eat, Bai Tu couldn't help but smile, and then took out a child's cotton clothes and shoes from his bag.

"This is for you. I'll try it out later to see if it fits." Bai Tu handed the off-white cotton clothes to Robin.

Robin looked at the cotton clothes in front of him and was silent for a while. Finally he couldn't help but ask, "Why are you so nice to me."

"Why?" Bai Tu thought for a while and said, "Because you are a child, and I have a two-year-old son, so you can just treat it as my motherly love."

Bai Tu said, rubbing Robin's head, and then started eating.

Robin lowered his head and suddenly wanted to cry. During the year when she was wandering, everyone wanted to catch her, and it was rarely like this.

At night, Bai Tu was sleeping on a stool that was put together. Robin looked at Bai Tu for a long time and said, "Come up and join us."

"Huh?" Bai Tu opened his eyes, smiled a few times and said, "No, my sleeping position is not good, the bed is too small, you can sleep alone."

"Just move the stool closer to the bed." Robin said softly.

"Well, that's a good idea."

Bai Tu moved the stool towards the bed, then lay on the bed and raised his arms to hug Robin.

"What are you talking about?" Robin pushed Bai Tu uncomfortably.

"Sleep, the quilt is a little small, and it will be warmer if two people sleep together." Bai Tu said and quickly fell into sleep.

Robin lay in Bai Tu's arms and couldn't fall asleep for a while.

Robin kept thinking about the past, the current situation, and the way he saw his mother when he was sick. Robin fell asleep without knowing it.

The next day, when Robin woke up, she found that Bai Tu had disappeared. On the table were the cotton clothes Bai Tu bought for her, a backpack, a fox mask on top of the backpack, and a piece of paper next to the schoolbag.

Robin got off the bed and walked to the table to change into his cotton clothes, then he saw the content on the piece of paper.

Robin's face turned pale instantly.

It was a wanted poster, Robin's own wanted poster.

Robin's lips trembled a little. After hesitating for a long time, Robin put on the cotton clothes, a backpack with food and Berry on his back, put on the fox mask and ran away from here.

At the corner of the stairs, Bai Tu looked at Robin who was escaping and sighed silently.

Run, kid. Only by running can you be safe.

After seeing Robin leave, Bai Tu returned to the room and put away Robin's wanted poster before carrying his bag and heading to the temporary residence of the pirate he was following.

In a wooden house, an unshaven middle-aged man looked out the window warily.

"Knock down."

There was a knock on the door, and the man tensed up subconsciously when he heard the sound.

The knocking on the door kept ringing rhythmically, and each knock seemed to hit the man's heart.

For a long time, the people outside seemed to think that no one was in the house and stopped knocking on the door.

The man squatted down against the door and listened to the sounds outside.

For a long time, the man didn't hear any movement outside, and he couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.

However, the next second, the door of the wooden house was destroyed by several slashes.

"Sure enough, it feels better to use a knife, but the feeling of Lan's feet is still a little bit worse."

Bai Tu said casually, and then his eyes fell on the man who was about to escape.

"Where are you going?" Bai Tu stopped his mission goal this time.

"Let me go, and I'll give you money." The man took a few steps back in fear and looked at Bai Tu.

"Sorry, I'm a marine." Bai Tu said, suddenly appearing behind the man and knocking him unconscious.

"Stop it and go back to see your son!" Bai Tu tied up the man very skillfully, then threw him on the sled and dragged him to the port.

There was someone waiting for her there.

"Huh~ I knew someone would pick me up at the port, but I didn't expect it would be you, General Qing Pheasant." Bai Tu raised his eyebrows and looked at Qing Pheasant.

"It just happened that I was also chasing a wanted criminal nearby." Qingzhi said lazily.

"With the general's ability, it should be easy to catch the wanted criminal! But why didn't I see it? Could it be that he was executed directly!" Bai Tu looked at Qing Pheasant in surprise.

"Let her run away." Qingzhi said and got on his bicycle.

"Escaped? A wanted criminal who can escape from General Aokiji must be very powerful, right? Who is that?"

Bai Tu said and tied the sled he was dragging behind Qing Zhi's bicycle, and then got on the back seat of the bicycle.

"Just a wanted criminal who runs fast." Robin's face flashed in Qingzhi's mind, and then he got on his bicycle and took Bai Tu to the nearest navy branch.

After Bai Tu settled his own affairs, he took a smooth sailing boat back to Donghai Windmill Town.

"Mom's such a big boy! I miss my mother!"

Bai Tu pushed open the door of the wooden house in the forest, looked at little Ace crawling on the ground, and pounced on him.

Little Ace couldn't help but burst into laughter when he saw it was Bai Tu, and kept waving his little hands.

"How long are you going to stay this time?" Dadan followed Bai Tu angrily while smoking a cigarette.

"One month, I'll leave in one month." Bai Tu smiled happily as she rubbed Ace.

"By the way, Dadan, don't smoke all the time. It's not good for your health." Bai Tu warned Dadan.

"You care about me." Dadan said dissatisfied.

"I just care about you. By the way, this is the care fee for this year. I will have to trouble you in the future, Dadan~"

Bai Tu pushed the box he brought to Dadan, and then went home with little Ace in his arms.

Speaking of going home, it actually means building a house near Dadan's house, which is only 200 meters away. The purpose is to pick up the children and go home conveniently.
