[One Piece] Courage to Dream

Chapter 14: Being a pirate is fun

"So Kar, so you ate the fruit of everyone!"

Luffy looked at Chopper, who was hiding behind Jyoti, with interest, and his probing eyes made Chopper's heart shudder.

"Whispering! Do you have an opinion, bastard!!" Chopper pretended to be mean with his cute voice.

"Hahahaha, I also ate rubber fruit," Lu Fei pinched his face and pulled it aside, the flesh on his cheek was stretched unscientifically, "I am a rubber man~"

...! !

For a moment, Chopper forgot to be afraid, and stared at Luffy with both eyes.

Because of his blue nose, he was rejected by the deer herd since he was a child. One day, he was kicked out of the deer herd after eating the "Human Fruit" by mistake.

It was expelled by its own kind, but humans did not accept it, even after it came to the East China Sea. It has lost count of how many people regarded it as a monster.

this person……

Like myself, I ate a devil fruit...

"You're so interesting!" Unexpectedly, the boy who ate the devil fruit approached him and said with great interest, "Hey, do you want to be my partner?"

"Partner?" Chopper was startled.

"Well, be a pirate like me~" Luffy pointed at himself, and continued to use his smiling face to abduct the kid.

At this moment, Sauron's expression was very painful.

I thought that Luffy wanted to abduct himself into the boat because of his own strength, but now it seems... this kid has no criteria for selecting candidates at all, he is completely following his own temperament, who makes him find it interesting Whoever you invite!

As expected, I got on the wrong boat... Zoro's conclusion made me very worried.

"Pirate? You... are a pirate?" Jyoti couldn't believe it.

"Well, yes," Luffy nodded, his pure and optimistic smile was like the most dazzling sunshine, possessing an irresistible appeal, he also cheered to Jyoti by the way, "Jodi too, let's be pirates together Bar!"

Luffy was answered by a short silence.

"I, we are not interested in pirates at all!" It was Chopper who broke the silence, shouting, "It's annoying, go away!!"

But Luffy was not affected at all, he tilted his head: "Really? But being a pirate is very interesting..."

"Come on, people have said that they are not interested." Sauron said behind Luffy, he seemed to see his own shadow in these two people, and he didn't want to let the tragedy repeat itself.

"But..." Lu Fei refused to leave.

If you don't go, I will go!

The sight of Sauron pulling the middle-aged man from the ground by the collar of the dead body quickly diverted Luffy's attention, and he asked strangely, "Zoro, what are you doing?"

"If you hand over this guy to the navy, you should be able to exchange it for [-] Baileys." Sauron simply explained.

"For [-] Baileys? What are you doing?" Luffy continued to ask.

"Did you forget that we still owe money?!"

Sauron dragged the middle-aged man in his hand and felt that he was going crazy.

"Ah, So Kar!" Luffy suddenly realized, and jumped to Sauron's side.

"What are you doing here, aren't you a pirate? I'm going to the naval base!" Sauron scolded.

"Ah, don't you too?"

"Uh……"

Looking at the backs of the two people who were gradually going away, Chopper lowered his head and put his hooves on the brim of his hat: "Jodi... what do you think..."

"I..." The figures of Luffy and Zoro were reflected in Jyoti's eyes, and strange emotions continued to spread from his heart, "Probably... the same as Chopper..."

His vision suddenly blurred.

That is a picture that will never fade in memory...

At the beach that year, there was a man who took the two of them to look at the boundless sea:

"Pirates are amazing people at sea...! On this sea, there are many people and things that you can't imagine. One day when you go to sea, you will realize how small your troubles are..."

There are waves of undulating waves under your feet.

It stretches to the horizon, as if there is no end.
