The logbook of a retired knight

【31】

The Eight Virtues of Chivalry - Humility, Honor, Sacrifice, Courage, Mercy, Honesty, Justice, Spirituality. 【Note】

Andrea was an excellent knight before, even though she is now a retired knight, she still follows the spirit of chivalry.

What she said to Whitebeard was entirely out of her own feelings, and at the same time, she also felt the warm family atmosphere in the Whitebeard Pirates, which subconsciously made her more determined to protect little Ace.

Of course, she didn't know that this answer just hit Whitebeard's liking zone.

Many years ago, when his companions were looting the treasure, White Beard sat quietly on the side, looking into the distance, expressing that what he wanted was not the treasure, but his family.

Just like everything he did after he became a pirate was for his family and to protect them.

Whitebeard also clearly noticed that Andrea was referring to little Ace, and he said bluntly: "Does Hawkeye not care?"

"Uh... this, actually..." Andrea was a little ashamed for a moment - those pirates before were all rumors and no one asked her without looking at them, so she naturally ignored them.

But now the one asking this question is a senior whom I respect.

"Ace is not Hawkeye's child." Andrea was silent for a moment before replying, "He is actually my sister's child, and his biological father status is very troublesome... because his biological parents are no longer alive , and I regard it as a parent and child, so..."

Andrea didn't finish speaking, but Whitebeard understood.

He took a sip of the wine and didn't ask about Ace's real background, but asked, "This wine is not bad, where did it come from?"

Andrea smiled back: "I got it from Dressrosa. The sunflower fields in that country are beautiful."

After that, the two of them didn't say anything, they drank quietly, as if everything was in silence.

Little Ace, who was sleeping on Andrea's lap, turned over and fell asleep even more deeply, and even started to snot and bubble.

Andrea looked cute and worried about the child's future - it seems that he can't be a qualified gentleman, but half of the chivalry can always work hard, right?

Andrea stayed with the Whitebeard Pirates for several days this time.

This is not because she is thick-skinned, but because of Whitebeard's invitation.

Andrea was flattered, and naturally agreed, and even went to find White Beard every day to learn from each other—although she was still abused, but she faintly noticed that the bottleneck of her sword skills began to show signs of loosening .

Whitebeard didn't knock it away with absolutely overwhelming force like the first time she challenged it, but it seemed like he was feeding a move.

Andrea naturally accepted the situation and dealt with it more seriously.

During this sparring time, she naturally couldn't take Ace by herself, so she handed over the cub to Marco again—anyway, the first time is born and the second time is familiar.

Marco doesn't mind taking care of Ace, especially because he is a phoenix capable of the devil fruit phantom beast. If the child is really noisy, he will fly around the sky with him, so that he can be quiet for a while.

To be honest, Andrea was shocked at the time - after all, most of the fruit ability users she had seen before were of the natural type, and it was the first time she saw the type of phantom beast.

It was also because of this that she asked Marcodo about the types of devil fruits, and was shocked again—there are so many of them!

But the shock was shocking, and Andrea adapted well—there were no shortage of people and species with special abilities in her previous world, and she was very receptive.

Of course, she is not greedy for fruit abilities, because she is still a relatively traditional type, and she only intends to improve her sword skills all the way.

After staying in the Whitebeard Pirates for almost a week, Andrea finally decided to leave.

It's not that the stay was uncomfortable, but that the stay was a bit too comfortable, and even the surrounding environment was too warm, and White Beard treated her very well, causing her to yell out along with other people inadvertently during a dinner. "Daddy" title, and no one thinks it's wrong.

Even she came to her senses when Ace asked herself "Mom, if you call Daddy Whitebeard, how should I call Whitebeard?"

no!If this continues, what is the difference between me and joining the Whitebeard Pirates!I can never be a pirate! ——Andrea, heartbroken, reflected on herself for a while, and then bid farewell to everyone in the Whitebeard Pirates.

Before leaving, Whitebeard laughed and said, "For the sake of calling me Dad, if you encounter any troubles in the future, please report my name!"

Andrea felt that she couldn't take advantage of this, but it would be more inappropriate if she refused, so she bowed her head and thanked earnestly after struggling for a while.

White Beard didn't take it seriously: "You kid just has too many rules in speaking."

And Andrea is quite serious: "This is etiquette."

Even though she agreed in this way, and was grateful to Whitebeard from the bottom of her heart and respected him as an elder she needed to respect, Andrea decided not to trouble him even if she encountered something, after all, she did not join the Whitebeard Pirate A group can never take advantage of others in vain.

Of course, she didn't know what effect this experience and the new bond would play in the future.

Now she just embarked on a new journey with Ace, who was a little sluggish because she got acquainted with the Whitebeard Pirates and left.

Andrea also asked curiously: "Ace, do you like the Whitebeard Pirates very much? Who do you miss? Marco? Or Sage?"

After all, one is a babysitter and the other is a cook.

"No!" Little Ace got off the side of the boat immediately after being asked, ran to Andrea and stood next to her, "Mother Lia, where are we going next? Back to Mihawk over there?"

"No, we won't go to Mihawk for now, but we are indeed going back to the East China Sea..." Andrea opened the map and looked.

There is also a reason for returning to the East China Sea. The new world is indeed more dangerous. Andrea feels that her strength needs to be improved a wave before she can run around with her children.

For the sake of Ace's safety, she should not go too far in the new world... because she found that Ace is not afraid of the dangers because he is familiar with them, and even enjoys it a bit like a joke. This is absolutely not possible!

Moreover, the child is already three and a half years old, and education has to keep up.At this time, returning to Donghai, finding a livable place to live for two years to teach children, and then digesting what I learned at White Beard is the best choice.

She remembered hearing Garp say that she originally wanted to take Ace and throw it to the bandits... The bandits were in the Kingdom of Goa, right?

Let's go over there first!

After setting the goal, Andrea began to adjust the course.Then, she suddenly realized a problem.

"Ace, why do you think we're going back to Mihawk?" Could it be that he missed his baboon friend?

"Huh?" Ace looked over in confusion, "Isn't Mihawk my dad?"

Andrea: "..."

Oops, things are a little messed up.

Sorry, dear friend. ——Andrea apologized heavily in the air.

It seems that she has to quickly find a suitable opportunity to tell Ace his real life experience.
