The logbook of a retired knight

【Sixteen】

Portgas D. Loujiu naturally didn't get fat, but got pregnant.

It's just that this child...is a posthumous child, and the father of the child is Gol D. Roger who was executed before.

After Andrea learned of this, she drew her sword angrily, wishing to slash Roger again.

At this time, she really regretted that she left like that. If she had known this, she might as well have stayed here...

But when she inquired carefully and found out that Lu Jiu was really in love with her, she felt overwhelmed that she might as well leave.

If she stayed here and watched this love that she absolutely disapproved of but could not object to, she would be depressed.

But... In this way, the problem is also very big-the world government will never let Roger's blood stay in this world.

This is why so many people suddenly came to this island, and they all came to investigate.

It was a done deal, and what had happened was irreversible. After taking a few deep breaths, Andrea angrily raised her sword and went to the woods to vent her anger, before returning to normal and returning.

"I will protect you." She looked at Lu Jiu and said.

"I will protect you, Lu Jiu, and the child in your belly."

【Seventeen】

Although Andrea is strong and confident in her own strength...but it is not so easy to protect Lu Jiu.

Because what she was fighting against was not a single person, or even hundreds of people, but a huge power machine.

But what made Andrea feel a little bit comforted was that a vice admiral named Garp came to the door and told the two that he was entrusted by Roger before his death to protect his wife and children.

Andrea is highly vigilant about this, and is ready to kill Garp and run away with Lu Jiu at any time when she finds something is wrong.

Fortunately, Garp seems to be really on their side, and after learning that Andrea is Lu Jiu's sister, he was relieved: "With the protection of the sword ghost, I can feel more at ease."

Lu Jiu looked at Andrea curiously: "Sword Demon?"

Andrea: "... just some nicknames that are not worth mentioning."

Although he has only been out for a short time, but with his super sword skills and strength, and the large number of pirates captured in a short period of time in exchange for bounties, it is impossible for the navy not to remember the name of this rookie bounty hunter.

Karp's arrival also relieved Andrea a lot of pressure - after all, there are people on the official side who are easy to talk to and can tell her the news.

She even got angry with Carp—because the navy took away all the fetuses of pregnant women during this period, just in case...so she would take Lujiu's baby before it was born. Lu Jiu leaves.

At that time, Garp will respond, and the troops will be divided into two groups at sea. Andrea will lead the navy away, and Garp will take away Lujiu.

The two made some plans, and Andrea also made plans for possible problems... But this day has not come yet.

Andrea estimated that the child in Lu Jiu's womb was over ten months old, but it hadn't been born yet.There were premature babies, and naturally there were also late babies. At this time, she didn't have much worry, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief-the longer the time dragged on, the more relieved the navy would be, and the more relaxed the troops would be.

However, when twelve months passed, Andrea felt that something was wrong—has this child stayed too long?

"Lu Jiu...is it really all right?"

"It doesn't matter." The blond woman sat on the bed, lowered her head with a smile, reached out to touch her stomach, and told her softly, "Good boy, you can't do it yet, wait a little longer, wait a little longer."

"...Lu Jiu!" Realizing Lu Jiu's intentions, Andrea became a little anxious, "If this happens, both the child and you are in danger..."

"No, Leah. This is the way for me and the child to obtain the greatest possibility of survival." Lu Jiu looked up at her with a calm expression, "Leah, you should understand."

Andrea really wanted to say that she didn't understand, but it was a pity that she also understood that if Lu Jiu's approach was the best, it would indeed be the best effect-this child could completely conceal his true identity, instead of being a child from birth. From the beginning, he faced the fate of being chased and fled all the time.

Lu Jiu smiled: "He also discussed it with me before. If it's a girl, I'll call it Ann. If it's a boy, I'll call it Ace."

Andrea walked to her side, stood, and looked at her: "In that case... I will be the child's aunt. I will play with the child and take good care of it."

"If that's the case, I'll leave it to you." Lu Jiu took out the button Andrea gave her at the time, smiling, "It's a deal, Leah."

"...Well." Andrea took the button and said seriously, "I can't guarantee that I will treat the child as my own, after all, I have never raised a child... But I can guarantee that I will not let him because of him Your child can choose the path he wants to take, whether he wants to go out to sea and become a pirate king, or he wants to stay on the island and become a baker, it doesn’t matter.”

Lu Jiu looked at her with gentle eyes, reached out to hold the black-haired girl's hand, pulled it over to nest on her stomach, lowered her eyes and smiled and said, "Did you hear what your Aunt Liya said? You want to grow up happily Daddy, be whoever you want to be.”

After twenty months of pregnancy, the child was finally born.

Because of the time of pregnancy, the possibility of being Roger's posthumous child was ruled out. The navy has already withdrawn, and it is already a safe environment.

However, Lu Jiu died of dystocia.

This is actually normal. Rather, Lu Jiu and Ace have worked very hard to achieve this.

——Yes, this is a boy, and his name is Ace.

Lu Jiu took one last look at the child, hugged him and blessed a bunch of tenderly, then handed the child to Andrea, and closed her eyes forever.

Andrea held the baby and cried with the baby in her arms.After crying, she remembered that the child was still young, and hurriedly went to find milk for the child—fortunately, she had given a lot of emergency training to take care of the child and listened to Lu Jiu's instructions.

She quietly held a funeral for Lu Jiu. Because the pregnancy was kept secret, Lu Jiu basically didn't go out to see other people after that, and Andrea and Garp were responsible for it.

There were only three people attending the funeral, Garp, Andrea, and little Ace in her arms.

On the arrangement of little Ace, Garp and Andrea also had brief quarrels and disagreements - Garp wanted to make Ace a navy, thinking that this was the best way to protect him; Andrea Spoil him, Lu Jiu had to make such a choice to protect the child and died because of the persecution of the navy. How could it be possible for Ace to enter the authority that forced his mother to execute his father!This is too insulting!

The two insisted on their own opinions, and in the end, Andrea was the winner—after all, she was the serious relative who had Lu Jiu's instructions.

Compared to Roger, naturally Lu Jiu has more power to make arrangements for Ace's future.

Especially when Andrea asked Garp how he planned to take Ace away, the other party said that he would be thrown to a bandit he knew... Shocked, Andrea hugged her little nephew tightly in fear—— Who is Roger arranging for?Is this plausible? !

In short, Andrea firmly rejected Karp, and then started a career of raising a baby alone.

I have good upbringing and teaching from the Devonhill family, and I will definitely be able to train Ace to be a qualified gentleman! —Devonhill D. Andrea thought confidently.
