[One Piece] Uncrowned King

It has to be said that Shanks' personality is indeed very similar to the Roger he admired, and they are both informal and carefree men.Fortunately, his pirate group has a mature and stable person like Rayleigh, otherwise it would definitely be chaotic.Thinking of Little Roger, Teresa's eyes dimmed, and then she changed the subject, reached out and rubbed the bright red hair of the boy in front of her, and said, "The hair is all knotted, go to the room and wash it well. Bacteria, if you don't do it well, you will get sick."

"It's all right, Captain Roger said, I'm not sick if I don't do anything. I haven't been sick since I was a child, and I'm in good health." Shanks rubbed his nose with his hand and said indifferently. Raisa's words fell into his ears.

Hearing Roger's name again, Teresa's body froze, her tone was inevitably a little harsh, and she said: "Be obedient... Shanks, you are the crew member of Little Roger, you don't know why he went to The reason for surrendering. The captain’s life is running out, and you should have experienced the feeling of being forced to disband the pirate group. In the future, you will also have your own pirate group. If you don’t take good care of your health now, it’s because I want you to have a future Do you feel the pain of losing your captain as much as you do?"

This time, Shanks didn't have the perfunctory expression just now, and the original bright smile also became dim.He stretched out his hand to put the straw hat on his back on his head, moved his chapped lips, and said in a low voice, "...I'm sorry, I understand."

"Go and rest." Seeing that he understood what she meant, Teresa smiled gratifiedly.The best thing about these simple guys is that they can quickly admit their mistakes after realizing their own mistakes, and they will not let down others' good intentions because of their self-esteem, and make their relationship worse and worse. It is also easy to lose people's hearts.Both Roger and Shanks, who has a similar personality to him, have this characteristic, so the bond between their partners is much deeper than that of many pirate groups.

When Teresa was teaching Shanks, Newgate had already walked to his daughter.Naiwanzi has never been afraid of her father since she was a child, but she is a little afraid of her mother who often nagging. Seeing her father and mother appearing together, this guy is actually a little lucky. After all, if he is around, her mother will definitely restrain herself a lot.Thinking of this, Nana Wanzi walked over quickly, hugging her father's arm and shouting sweetly: "Dad."

"!!" Mihawk, who recognized the person in front of him as a white beard, was full of vigilance, and when he heard Nana Maruko address Newgate, his eyes turned from shock to bewilderment.

"Hainuoer." Newgate easily picked up his daughter, put it on his arm, and asked: "How is it, the first sailing, is it smooth?"

"Yeah, it's exciting outside! But Shanks is an idiot, he accidentally cut off the boat, causing us to stay on an isolated island for several days." When leaving on a raft, he was almost eaten by sea kings, Caught by the navy, swallowed by the vortex of the sea, blown away by the storm... After going through a lot of dangers, he finally arrived at Chambord land safely. In the end, it was Uncle Rayleigh who got the new boat.These dangerous vegetable balls didn't tell their parents to worry about them. Of course, even if she didn't say it, Newgate could easily guess.

Looking at her daughter's thin face, Newgate stretched out his hand to see her messy hair reaching to the back of her head, and said, "I've been out to sea, and you have experienced the situation outside. How about it, do you want to go alone?" ?”

"Of course!" Naiwanzi's answer was firm.

Newgate curled the corner of his mouth and said, "As a father, I will support you." He will never be an obstacle to the children's pursuit of their dreams, no matter how tortuous their road to their dreams, he will only give them help.Newgate looked at his daughter's already opened face, and said, "If you have any difficulties, come to me."

When Nanawanzi heard this, she lowered her head and twirled her fingers, and said in a low voice, "Well... isn't that very cunning? Relying on daddy or something... Oops!" Before she could finish her sentence, Newgate slapped her on the forehead .Cai Wanzi covered her head and looked at her father pitifully.

"What nonsense, I am your father. On this sea, do you think that only one person can break through? No matter how powerful and strong, they need partners to support each other and rely on various fetters to survive If you want to thank them, you will grow up to be a strong enough person to hold up the sky, and then you will survive safely." White Beard said to his daughter.

Many young people yearn for a soul-stirring life. They are desperate to become pirates, and they think that a cool death is also a kind of handsome performance that makes people excited.The immature ones will understand only when they have experienced loss, and those who shoulder the responsibility and live are the real heroes.Newgate will not die, he cherishes his life.He knows the meaning of the three words White Beard, and for the sake of his family, he will do everything to survive.Those fetters he has carried are the great secret treasure of his true freedom.

"Hmm..." Nana Maruko scratched her hair and said doubtfully, "But everyone clearly said that to be a pirate, you have to be prepared to give up your life. You can't be a pirate if you are afraid of death. And, I feel that you are dragging your family. Not free at all."

"It is true that walking in this sea area requires the will to risk your life, but it is the most stupid to die recklessly. As a pirate, you must not only have the courage to sacrifice your life for what you want, but also have the courage to sacrifice your life for what you want. They have the courage to live regardless of everything." In the new world, it is too easy to die, but the difficult thing is to live.As for freedom... Newgate thought for a while and asked, "What do you think is freedom? In your current life, becoming Teresa and I's daughter, will you feel bound? Do you want to get rid of us?"

"No." Nana Wanzi shook her head quickly.

"That's it. Since you don't feel bound, why bother to pursue some freedom." Newgate said.

"..." Nana Wanzi was bewildered, unable to comprehend the meaning of Newgate's words.

People say that being a pirate is free, but is being a pirate really free?Weaker pirates have to face the ravages of natural disasters all the time, and are hunted down by the navy. Once they are caught, they will be doomed.The powerful pirates are even less free, such as Whitebeard and Roger. Behind their ships, they are always followed by the eyeliner of the world government, and even their relatives and children are monitored.In the eyes of ordinary people, they are not at ease at all.But these people feel from the bottom of their hearts that they are free and live happier than anyone else.

Those guys who think that their daily lives are tied in order to pursue freedom, even if they really go to the sea, except for some troubles, they will never find freedom.Because the word freedom has nothing to do with any job a person chooses, but has something to do with the heart.

Those who are free-minded are free wherever they go and in whatever situation they are in.

And make excuses for your own narrow-mindedness, pin your hopes on the sea, and become a pirate who proves himself by doing evil unscrupulously. Even if you become the Pirate King, you will never see freedom.
