The logbook of a retired knight

【88】

The pink-haired girl who follows Andrea is named Perona. She is one of the opponents of Luffy and others in the Devil's Triangle, a subordinate of Moonlight Moria, and a ghost fruit capable user.

At that time, before Lu Fei and others were photographed flying, she was photographed by the tyrant bear and flew to the island where Hawkeye lived.

Of course, Hawkeye wasn't home at the time.After the battle of advancing the city was over, Hawkeye realized that there was an extra person in the family.

Since Hawkeye himself is quite Buddhist besides fighting, he didn't have much opinion on this uninvited guest.It's like when a group of children of his best friend pulled him, he didn't lose his temper.

Andrea was surprised for a moment when she found out that there was one more person in her best friend's family, but she definitely wouldn't ask any more questions, just left Sauron here, and made up for the battle that should have been in the Battle of the Advance City.

Hawkeye is quite satisfied with the daily discussions with his friends, but he is very dissatisfied with the appearance of Sauron: "I misread Roronoa, he actually bowed his head to the enemy for advice... It seems that I overestimated him gone."

Andrea laughed: "It's really strict, Mihawk."

"You raise your disciple like a child, so it's naturally a doting attitude." Hawkeye commented.

Andrea thought back on the heavy study tasks she had assigned to Luo, and felt that what Hawkeye said was not quite right.

But this proves that Hawkeye is more demanding.Andrea had already anticipated this point, and had told Sauron about the difficulties she might face... She just wanted to see if Sauron could impress Hawkeye and ask him to give him advice.

With a little worry in her arms, Andrea deliberately stayed for a few days.

Also in the past few days, Perona has been turning around her-this can't be helped, no one else on the island is boring.For her, Hawkeye was boring, and Sauron was even more boring. After all, there was one more woman on the island who seemed to be quite talkative, so of course she played with her.

It doesn't matter to Andrea, she is used to raising children. Although Perona is still a little self-willed, she is much more obedient than the few brats in her family who can pierce the sky.

She also learned of Perona's identity after questioning.

"Are you Moria's subordinate? He disappeared after the Battle of Advancing City... But I met Absalom before... He also helped us at that time."

Perona was shocked: "What?! Did that guy betray Lord Moria?!"

Andrea: "... Cough, shouldn't you realize that I am also one of your enemies?"

"But now you are also one of the Shichibukai!" Perona replied as a matter of course, holding her little parasol, hugging the doll Andrea sewed for her, leaning over and saying coquettishly, "Are you going to catch the doll?" A fugitive from the city, right? If I'm with you, I should be able to meet Lord Moria!"

Andrea was ashamed: "Huh? About this..."

Before she could finish her sentence, Sauron had already obtained Hawkeye's approval in his own way, and Hawkeye was still shouting, "Hey, ghost girl! Come and help this guy deal with his wound!"

Perona was angry: "Don't order me! I am Lord Moria's subordinate! And I will go with Lord Andrea next!"

Andrea: "..." Just... that's fine.

Leaving a girl here alone is not in line with etiquette.

This is why Andrea replaced a green algae head with a beautiful girl when she left Hawkeye's house.

This is also how Andrea explained to the red-haired pirates and her eldest son why she went out and brought back a strange girl.

When Perona came to the territory of the Four Emperors, she was a little scared at the beginning-after all, the name of the Four Emperors is still very famous, especially for them, even if they don't know the specific sphere of influence, they know The Four Emperors are not easy to mess with.

However, since she was brought by Andrea, it was impossible for the red-haired pirates to embarrass a little girl, and this little girl didn't make trouble. Perona let go a lot after being coaxed for a while.

Of course, Andrea repeatedly emphasized her behavior there: "She is Moria's subordinate, and I really didn't collect children everywhere like Mr. Whitebeard."

It's better to say that she didn't blindly accept children from the beginning to the end, okay!

Andrea also made a serious analysis of this - Ace, it was entrusted by her own nephew, Lu Jiu; Sabo, it was brought by Ace; Luffy, it was thrown by Garp... …etc!

"Luffy's words... are mostly because of you!" Andrea lost her sharp eyes, "Mr. Garp is because I heard that you and I have a good relationship, and Luffy is influenced by you to think about it." To become a pirate, you threw Luffy to me!"

Shanks tried to refute for himself and Luffy: "But Luffy called your mother when he didn't see me!"

"That's because they yelled with Sabo and Ace." Andrea remembered this with a blank expression on her face, "If Sabo and Ace had chased a goose and yelled like that, Luffy would have followed. "

"Why compare yourself to a goose, you are much cuter than a goose."

"...I know you want to praise me, but this kind of compliment will only make me want to beat you up." Andrea glared.

"Don't be so strict." Shanks was still laughing, "Luffy said from the very beginning that he would become the Pirate King...and he also said the same thing as Captain Roger."

When he said this, there was a hint of nostalgia in his tone, and his expression was joyful.

Andrea glanced at him, didn't say much, but raised her head and took a sip of the wine in the glass, put it down, showing a trace of hesitation, and finally said after a long while: "It's the first time I saw Gore... D. Roger, was in Batherilla Island. At that time, I went home after the daily sword training, and saw a bearded man chatting up with Lu Jiu. Lu Jiu is gentle and lovely, and this is not the first time I have met such a person , I immediately went to chase them away, and even fought with the other party..."

It was the first time for Shanks to hear her talk about this matter, and he listened with interest, and only asked when the other party paused: "And then?"

"Although my swordsmanship wasn't top-notch at the time, at least it wasn't weak." Andrea modestly commented on her own strength, and continued, "Roger is indeed very strong...but we all He didn't use all his strength, but finally Lu Jiu came out to stop him. Then he called himself Roger, and he came to this island to retire and settle down..."

Andrea talked a lot, from her resistance to Roger at the time, to later Roger taught herself a lot of knowledge, especially about sailing, regardless of the previous suspicions.

She also talked about her guess about Roger - at the time she thought that the other party was just a retired pirate, but she didn't expect that he was the famous One Piece.

Shanks listened quietly.

He only knew that Andrea's sister was the captain's wife and spent the last time with the captain, but he didn't know that Andrea and the captain also knew each other and had been together for so long.

When he heard Andrea talking about Rogge Town, he was a little distracted and recalled the past.

Actually... When he was in Rogge Town, he had seen Andrea.

At that time, the other party was buying fruit on the side of the road, and his attitude towards people was gentle and friendly, but when the pirate on the side not only jumped in line but also wanted to grab the fruit without paying, he immediately took action to teach the other party a lesson, and scolded the other party to abide by the basic etiquette. , Continue to bow your head and pick fruits there.

If you want to talk about Shanks' first impression of people...that is, a beautiful girl with good strength and a little strange behavior.

But that was just a glimpse, he was full of the upcoming execution of the captain, and he was so heavy that he didn't have any extra thoughts to think about other things.

Later, when he invited Hawkeye and Andrea, it was time for him to regain his composure and make up his mind to form his own pirate group.

"... At that time, I was only sorry that the elders who taught me were going to be executed, but when I heard Roger's words before his death, I felt that this might be what he wanted... Although it is still There will be some regrets. I didn’t realize that Roger is still my brother-in-law until I saw the pregnant Lu Jiu after I got home.”

Andrea spoke with a sad tone, and her red eyes showed a bit of loneliness.

Seeing her like this, Shanks was slightly taken aback—so... Leah was actually also concerned about Captain Roger's death at the time...

"If I had known that Luo Jie had taken a fancy to Lu Jiu..." She sighed as she spoke, then raised her head and looked at the starry sky, her expression suddenly changed, full of murderous intent, and she pinched the wine glass in her hand Broken, he gritted his teeth viciously and said, "I will definitely kill him in advance!"

Shanks: "..." It seems that Captain Roger didn't die early enough.

"No... If I had known earlier! I would not have gone to sea in advance! I must guard against death! Let that bearded man have no chance to provoke my sister!" Andrea said, her tone became a little aggrieved, "My Lu Jiu Sister..."

"Okay, okay." Shanks laughed dryly, reached out and took away the broken wine glass, "Leah, you drank too much."

Andrea turned her head to look at him, and suddenly reached out to caress his face, rubbing her thumb lightly on his chin, under the moonlight, her slightly drunken red eyes were slightly drunk.

After staring at him for a long while, she suddenly laughed, raised her chin, and said in a commanding tone: "Your way is just right now, you can't grow that kind of beard."

Shanks laughed after being stunned, raised his hand to cover the back of the opponent's hand, and lowered his head slightly: "Of course."
