[One Piece] Uncrowned King

Although she wanted to go back quickly to arrange work on the island, and to beat that bastard Roger out with a stick, but the plan couldn't keep up with the change, Teresa stayed on the New Moby Dick in the end, because she and Newgate's long-awaited little life came unknowingly.All of a sudden, the messy thoughts of life were thrown away, and the two of them prepared wholeheartedly to welcome the arrival of the new life. Even the pirates who originally planned to turn the great sea route upside down, fell silent at the same time, and everyone waited on them carefully. The pregnant women whose stomachs are getting bigger day by day, the pirates simply don't run around, but stay in a relatively stable sea area, waiting for Teresa to give birth.

Whether it was Teresa or Newgate, both of them had quite a lot of experience in taking care of children, but when this kind of thing fell on their heads, they realized that things were far from that simple.Even Teresa, who knew her body clearly and had a lot of medical knowledge, became nervous.It was the first time for the two of them to have a child, and the whole boat was full of little ghosts, so Teresa called her semi-retired father when she confirmed the news, and asked him to take time to help check her negligence. place.After receiving Teresa's notification, Nancy drove over almost non-stop, and appeared in front of the couple on the tenth day after Teresa called.

Now Nancy has gray hair all over her head. After his daughter took over his job, he became even older. Perhaps it was because he was free, so he had time to think wildly. Most of the time, he They are all thinking about their long-gone wife, and they are alone with the lovesickness that goes deep into the bone marrow.Over the years, many people wanted to match him up, but Nancy refused without hesitation. Teresa's mother is the only woman in his life and the only person he loves deeply. This relationship will last until he Until death, she will never change because of her departure.His heart is very small, since it has already been filled by his wife and daughter, there is no more room for others. Even Newgate, who has been regarded as his son-in-law, can only live in... Well, in capillaries.

Teresa is not young anymore. She is already on her fourth year of life and does not have the youthful vigor of a young man. Although it cannot be seen on the surface, her various physical statistics are declining year by year, so her pregnancy is not safe. .Sitting in front of his daughter, he felt her pulse carefully. After a while, Nancy's frowning brows relaxed, and he breathed a sigh of relief, "It's okay..."

"Father?" Sitting on Teresa's side, Newgate's face was serious, with obvious anxiety in his tone.

Nancy smiled at him, waved her hand and said, "It's okay, Teresa is very good at taking care of herself, and she doesn't have any bad habits, so her physical fitness is still very good. Next, just pay more attention." He supported the table Standing up, he paused for a while to get rid of the dizziness caused by low blood pressure, walked slowly to the desk, took out a piece of paper from it, wrote down a few drug names and handed it to Marco, "Little fat man, right? You Go and inform Hippocrates Island and let them send all the medicines to be used here, I am still not at ease about the medicinal materials outside."

Little fat man... Marco nodded with a dark face, but he didn't dare to resist his father's father-in-law, so he could only walk out the door with a feces-colored face and took the medicine list.

"Pfft...!" The originally tense atmosphere was instantly diluted by this cute nickname, and a group of pirates covered their mouths and watched Marco leave with a suppressed smile.There was even a smile on Teresa's face. She leaned on Newgate's arm and said, "Marco won't be really angry, will he? I think the name is good..."

"I'll get used to it." Newgate said with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

"Hahaha, I think so too." Teresa laughed loudly. After she was pregnant, her emotions became very ups and downs, that is, when she was angry, she would burst into anger, but on the contrary, when she was happy, she seemed to have gained the whole world.It's just that this time with her father by her side, she couldn't be as self-willed and unrestrained as before. She just laughed a few times, and turned her head to meet Nancy's disapproving gaze.Teresa covered her mouth and said aggrievedly, "Dad..."

"The first two months are too dangerous, so you have to be careful, don't get angry at every turn, and don't laugh and laugh." Nancy knocked her daughter on the head, then turned to Newgate and said, "You too, don't worry about it." Follow her. This boat is full of juniors, so it's hard to say anything, and you, as a husband, take care of her, don't let her cause you trouble."

"Let it be." Newgate didn't agree, but turned his head and looked at Teresa and said, "I don't think it's troublesome."

"Hee hee." Teresa blinked triumphantly, rubbed her husband's arm, and glanced at her father triumphantly.

"You guys..." Nancy shook her head, expressing her helplessness to this stupid couple. They were really covering each other. Before Teresa got married, he didn't realize that this girl was so delicate. She was getting more and more childish.Unable to control the way the two get along, Nancy rolled up her sleeves and said, "Teresa go to sleep for a while, I'll make some soup for you, and I'll wake you up later." After wearing an apron and glasses, he took the recipe he had been studying for a long time and walked slowly towards the kitchen.

Teresa looked at her father's already aged figure, but suddenly felt sour in her heart.He has been very busy these years, and he no longer has the ability to accompany his father as often as before. Before he knew it, his originally broad and straight back had gradually become thinner, and even his waist was a little bent.The steady steps that she used to walk with her on her back without shaking no matter how many mountain roads have become slow and heavy...Because her father tried his best to conceal these things, she never knew about these things, and by the time she found out, it was already too late.

……

In the kitchen, Nancy stirred the soup, flipping through the cookbook now and then.His memory is not as good as before. He often forgets what he remembers one second. In order not to delay things, he had to record everything in his notes.Boiling a bowl of soup for Teresa is a very troublesome thing for him now, but Nancy is in a good mood.

He looked up at the wall, sighing.

"My wife, our child, finally needs me again..."

The great doctor who once stood at the highest point and won countless honors is nothing more than a father who wants to do more for his daughter in his lifetime.
