[Master Pirate] I just want to live a peaceful life

The identity of the pregnant woman was quickly confirmed. Before they came to this sea area, a passenger ship sank.In the age of great voyages, shipwreck is the most common and most helpless disaster. Going to sea must be accompanied by the possibility of shipwreck, but people will not be able to survive if they do not go to sea.

In a crazy age, crazy people are born. People in this era have no reason to compromise like nature.

It's just that he was curious about how she survived the shipwreck by saving herself. Even a healthy and strong adult man had a very small chance of surviving, let alone a weak and inconvenient pregnant woman.

After the pregnant woman woke up - he got the answer.

In all fairness, this is indeed a beautiful woman, with black and beautiful long hair, and exquisite facial features as if carved by a famous craftsman, but before coming here, it was only on the level of beauty, Perospero had seen Many beautiful women, including his mother when he was young.

But as she woke up, those long and thick eyelashes slowly opened, and the eyes as bright as rubies were revealed in front of him. Those eyes were like flames, igniting this lifeless body, and the bright red dress At this time, it fully demonstrated its own role and brought out the master's temperament.

Warm, beautiful, and dangerous, it reminds people of roses that are delicate and charming but not easily touched by others.

"It seems...you saved me." She rolled her eyes, looked around her environment, and smiled with the rest of her life: "Thank you, Mr. Pirate."

Hearing that, Perospero raised his eyebrows and asked with interest: "Oh, you don't look scared at all."

After he saved people, he thought that if the pregnant woman woke up like ordinary people who couldn't communicate, yelling and cursing and hating him as a pirate, then he would personally send her back to the sea.

Now it seems that he is very lucky, and the opponent is also very lucky.

The woman smiled, her body was still very weak, which caused her voice to be weak, but it didn't hinder the bright smile on her face.

"All you can meet at sea are pirates, navy, and ordinary people. You look neither like a navy nor like an ordinary person. Isn't the answer obvious?"

"Such a clever lady, but you haven't answered me yet, aren't you afraid at all?"

She is located in the infirmary on his ship, and the subordinates who are normally on duty are staring at the helpless pregnant woman on the bed with a fierce look. With that smiling face, she stretched out her hand to caress her swollen belly, and when her dazzling eyes fell down, she was completely gentle as a mother.

"A pregnant woman like me who has nothing to gain, if you choose to save me, you will definitely not kill me again."

"Exactly, ma'am."

She was right, and Perospero was happy that he had rescued a smart man by accident. For their status, it would be of no benefit to both of them to save a fool.

"There is a small island right in front of us, so go down there."

"Okay, thank you very much."

After a brief explanation, Perospero got up and left, and called away the two subordinates on duty, leaving only the ship doctor to stay and take care of her, less than half an hour away from the next island.

If that's where things end, it's an inconspicuous chapter in the great pirate's colorful life, and if that's the case -- so be it.

"Master Perospero!!"

The ship doctor who has been with him since he went out to sea and has seen strong winds and waves will push open the door of the captain's cabin with a look of horror, and even forget to knock on the door. Something must have happened, so he directly asked: "What happened?"

"Then, that woman!!"

"Calm down, what's wrong with her?"

"I I I I..."

The 28-year-old ship doctor pointed in the direction of the infirmary, hesitated for a long time, and shouted out with a blushing face: "She is going to give birth, but I have experience in delivering babies!!"

"..."

The teacup in Perospero's hand fell to the ground.

The 'BIGMOM' pirate group is a very special pirate group. The relationship between the captain and the crew is not only superior and subordinate, but also a parent-child relationship maintained by blood. As the eldest son, Perospero has a heavy responsibility to replace the absent Parents are responsible for taking care of their younger siblings and protecting their mother, so they have an experience that other pirates or men have never had.

For example - delivery.

"Go and prepare clean towels and warm water, and get some milk and chocolate." He calmly commanded his panicked subordinates, squatted beside the bed, and used his ability to create a candy bar and handed it to the woman's mouth, almost It is an unquestionable tone: "Bite this, adjust your breathing, if you don't want your child to die, just do as I say."

Her sweat-wet hair stuck to her porcelain-like cheeks, and her eyes seemed to be burning with flames. She bit the candy bar without hesitation, and began to adjust her breathing. As the palace/mouth opened, severe pain came, and she His hands clenched the bed sheet under him tightly to exert force, until his teeth crushed the surface of the candy bar and embedded it inside.

The process of giving birth is like the process of conceiving life—difficult and long. During this period, what Perospero and the ship's doctor can do is to remind her to breathe hard, not to faint, and when she is dying, hold her head up to feed her. She drank the milk she prepared in advance, broke the chocolate and threw it into her mouth, and then re-stuffed/backed the pitted candy bar she bit into her mouth.

It may be that what happened to Shen Hai earlier made the woman's body very weak. Even though she didn't seem to give up at all, her body weakened a little bit. They will all die in a short time.

Thinking of this, Perospero wanted to take a last look at those eyes. There is no pirate who does not love treasures. A woman's eyes are far brighter and more beautiful than any jewelry he has seen before. He was stunned at this sight.

Although there was no blood on her face, the woman's eyes were still burning, and the flames inside showed no sign of going out, and she didn't look like she was about to die at all. She let go of the crumpled bed sheet and took out her mouth. Throwing the candy bar in the ground, he reached out to Perospero.

"Sorry, can you lend me your weapon? It looks stronger." The voice was weak, but the deep obsession in his eyes made people shudder. Perospero was shocked, and naturally The weapon was in her hands.

"Thank you so much." The woman's smile was fleeting, she clenched the candy cane tightly, her eyes widened suddenly, blue veins protruded from her forehead, and her clenched teeth creaked under the forceful squeeze Ga' sound, his candy cane trembled with the woman's trembling, but the combination caused a mournful sound similar to breaking, which made Perospero have the illusion that the weapon he had fought for many years and cut iron like mud was about to die young In the hands of this woman.

Sweat penetrated the woman's whole body like rain, and she looked like she was fished out of the water. The red skirt absorbed enough sweat and stuck to the woman's body, gradually revealing the inner skin, and a violation of the white skin. The color broke into Perospero's eyes.

He looked at the woman with a more complicated look. If he saw the sign correctly, it should be the brand/mark of the Tianlong people on the slave/slave-'fly/dragon/zhi/hoof'.

In the end, it ended with a groan/groan from the woman and the cry of the baby on the ground.

As soon as it was over, the woman collapsed on the boat and couldn't move. The candy cane slipped from her weak palm and fell to the ground. The ship doctor who accompanied the whole process also fell to the ground exhausted, muttering: "It's more tiring than fighting with the navy." people."

Perospero cleaned the newborn baby in a water basin with a suitable temperature. The baby only cried a few times, and gradually calmed down. When Perospero wrapped her in a clean bath towel, he sent her to the woman's arms By then, she had already fallen asleep peacefully.

The woman glanced at the child beside her, a smile appeared on her sweaty face, she pressed her cheek gently against the baby's face, and the first tear shed from the corner of her eye so far.

"Thank you for being willing to come into this world, my dear Beatrice."

Strange statement, Perospero thought to himself, when will the child be able to choose his birthright, and he has never seen his mother say words of thanks to the younger brother and sister. To his mother, the child is Whether it is useful or useless, she can only show satisfaction with the former.

Do ordinary mothers appreciate the birth of their children?

Perospero, who didn't want to go see any more, left the room, because she missed the time of disembarkation due to childbirth, and then even if she didn't want to, she would follow him back to Wanguo temporarily, hoping that it would not cause any commotion.

When his younger siblings came to meet him at the port and saw a woman holding a child get off the boat, he had already predicted what would happen.

"You look troubled."

An unexpected voice sounded, and Perospero turned his head in surprise. Less than ten minutes had passed, and the woman who was weak and on the verge of death just now, despite her weakness, would still have the strength to walk up to him and smile at him.

The cool sea breeze blew over her body, causing her long hair to dance and made her sneeze.

"Go back to your room, you are still very weak." He frowned subconsciously, and the woman waved her hand nonchalantly and said, "Please don't worry, I won't die."

No, no one ever said you were going to die...

In his speechless sight, the woman stretched out as if walking in the back garden of her own home, put her hands on the railing of the boat, and laid her pillow on it comfortably.

"It's finally over. Having a baby is really hard. I haven't felt so relaxed in a long time."

The way she muttered was no different from that of a teenage girl from an ordinary family, but when she thought of the brand/imprint, all of this was not ordinary.

"You turned out to be a slave of the Tianlong people?"

He didn't intend to worry about the meaning of other people's scars, he just asked if he wanted to know, she blinked and admitted calmly: "Yeah, it was probably when I was six or seven years old. A slave/slave."

"..."

That calm tone, as if he had eaten an extra bowl of rice today, made the corners of Perospero's mouth twitch.

There was something wrong with this woman.

Years of intuition told him that he should immediately put this woman on an island, and definitely not bring her back to Wan Guo. Even if he had to divert the ship and go back, it would be worth spending more time.

"Master Perospero, it's my mother's phone number!"

As it turned out, his hunch was correct, it was just a step too late.

"Perospero, you saved an undead woman, right? Bring her back to me."

Simple and clear, but without a tone of rejection at all, Perospero hung up the phone, asked his subordinates to take the phone bug, and then turned around. The woman was still standing there, and a cloud was blown by the wind to block the sunlight above her. , For a moment, those eyes no longer shine with kindness, but become sharp and dull.

"What's your name?"

He never thought of asking her name before because there would be no more communication, but the situation is different now.

"Rosalie." She paused every word, as if stubbornly gritted her teeth to make up for her weak body. Afterwards, even if the clouds drifted away and the sun shone on her again, those eyes never came back. became soft.

To this day, Perospero still asks himself, maybe it was right not to save Rosalie.

Because, if he hadn't saved her, he wouldn't have let her mother know of her existence.

Undead - This sea is similar to the legendary race. Compared with fur tribe and murloc, they are no different from ordinary humans. The only difference is that they are immortal. There is no way to kill undead except seawater, that is, For this reason, they were born with a different fate from other human beings. The spirit of their family is either strong enough to pervert, or weak enough to self-destruct.

This woman—Rosalie—was clearly the former.

"Why do you ask for trouble?" It has been three days since she landed on the island. She has been tortured for three consecutive days and three nights, and she has to be separated from her newborn child. No one can stand it. Perospero is puzzled.

It's not that they didn't give them a way to survive. The request made by the mother was so simple that it was a miracle. As long as she told the place where the clansman lived in seclusion, she and the children could leave alive and well.

Fortunately, she refused straight away, endured the pain of flesh and blood for three days and three nights, and did not let go of her willpower. Should it be said that she is an undead?

"Bah." Rosalie's hands were bound by iron chains at her sides, she turned her head to one side, spat out a mouthful of blood, raised her head, her red pupils were astonishingly bright on her distressed face.

"I said impossible is impossible, and I will not betray my people."

"I've seen a lot of people who say such things." Perospero laughed angrily: "You think about those who don't have blood, why don't you think about your own flesh and blood?"

When it came to the child, Rosalie's aggressive attitude faltered a bit. Perospero wanted to strike while the iron was hot, but Rosalie suddenly asked him back.

"If someone wants to take the life of one of your sisters in exchange for the life of another sister, what will you do?"

"The situation is different. I will not let my family members who are related to me suffer from such things, but you have to suffer from these things for people who are not related to you. What can they do for you?"

This metaphor is really unpleasant, especially in Charlotte's family, they have always been related by blood, and they don't have much affection for outsiders without blood. Perospero couldn't help sneering: "You will even hurt Your child suffers the same thing as you."

"..."

After a long silence, Rosalie sighed and said, "Take me to see your mother."

Seeing that she finally let go, Perospero also took the opportunity to act both hard and soft: "Don't worry, as long as you tell mom, I will send you mother and daughter away, and ensure that you see your husband safely."

"How is my daughter?"

"Don't worry, she's fine, I've sent someone to take care of her."

Rosalie nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

Perospero thought that this matter should end here, but it hasn't, he can hardly believe that his ears are broken, or that woman's brain is broken, where did she get the courage to reject her mother again!

"My mind will not change, I will not betray my tribe, but in exchange I am willing to stay, can you let my daughter go?"

The blood-stained woman's skirt was also tattered, but she was still neither humble nor overbearing in front of the big pirate, and Perospero couldn't say anything to call her stupid.

Does she know what mom wants to do?Dare to say such a thing without knowing anything, obviously as long as she abandons that child, she can also leave here.

Parents can have many children, and although it is inhumane to sacrifice this one in exchange for their own safety, no one will blame her.

So, why not give up on the kids?To choose to sacrifice yourself?

Is it because they are the mother and he is the child?

Rosalie, who is now eight years younger than him, is already on the same level as his mother in his eyes.

"You mean exchange? That's good."

Hearing his mother's familiar tone, his heart sank.

"I'm not interested in keeping unfaithful people by my side. Since you want to exchange, well, let's exchange your life."

"okay, I get it."

Perospero looked at the calm woman in astonishment. She raised her head, looked up at the huge pirate in front of her, and said, "You'd better keep your promise."

"Hmph, you have no position to threaten me yet."

Anyone who offends her mother will have her lifespan or soul taken away by her. This is a constant routine, but this time facing the undead Rosalie, my mother chose to let her jump into the sea to understand life.

This is the most cruel thing for the undead. In the cold sea water, they consciously feel the pain of their limbs and skin being dissolved, and finally turn into foam with no bones left.

After Rosalie heard about it, she accepted it calmly, and only asked to see her child again for the last time. This indifference disappeared in front of her daughter.

"Please forgive my useless mother, Beatrice!"

The three days and three nights of torture and death did not make her cry, just seeing her daughter's face, the woman couldn't stop crying.

The baby girl sleeps in the nursery with other children of Charlotte's age, also newborns, who will never receive the same gratitude and apology from their mothers as that child.

Rosalie finally hugged her daughter and kissed her forehead tearfully.

"My beloved Beatrice, may your life be safe and happy."

and mother's blessing.

As the supervisor, he had to watch Rosalie jump into the sea and turn into foam to complete the task, and lead her to the cliff behind the island.

Rosalie walked towards the end step by step.

"You... are so stupid!"

He still couldn't help mocking her. She stopped, turned around, and when her back was facing the cliff, the wind lifted her hair and skirt from behind. The moment the black hair fell, Peros heard her laughter.

"Although you say that, you want me to win, right?"

"Varied--"

"Perospero, as a mother, I won, but your mother lost completely."

After finishing speaking, she proudly opened her arms, riding the wind, and fell backwards without fascination.

Such was the life of Solar Rosalie, which came to an abrupt end.

16 years later, she also confirmed that sentence, she won, and her daughter also won, and they all did what Charlotte's family could never do in their lifetime.

Perospero went back to the children's room and came to the sleeping baby girl. She slept soundly and didn't know what happened to her mother. But Rosalie, mother won't let her go so easily. Did you really win?

You have no idea what your daughter will go through.

Thinking of her future, Perospero couldn't suppress his malice. It's best to be as miserable as possible. Only in this way can...

The baby girl's slow opening of her eyes interrupted him, and he remembered the first time he saw Rosalie, and with the opening of those eyes, he saw a jewel that was more beautiful than any jewelry. Eye.

So what will he see now?

As expected, this child has the same beautiful eyes as her mother, but it is not a rare sight for anyone who has seen her mother's eyes.

Perospero leaned down, stopped above her, exerted pressure at the same time, parted the corners of his mouth, and said solemnly: "Welcome to the Charlotte family, we are a family of monsters, and we are a family with pirate blood."

Unexpectedly, the child didn't cry. She blinked her beautiful eyes and smiled at him. The smile on her soft face was so lovable. The baby's laughter was said to be the purest sound in the world. Not too much.

Even his younger siblings had never smiled at him like this before. He tentatively stretched out his hand. His overly long nails did not dare to touch the child's soft cheeks easily, for fear of leaving marks, but the child took the initiative to hold his fingers, She could only hold one of his fingers.

It's soft, warm, and will break if you touch it lightly.

At this moment, Perospero made a decision. He overturned his previous thoughts. He wanted to let this child live carefree and with each of his younger brothers and sisters... no, even happier than them just work.

For that... he would do anything.

-------------------

The author has something to say:

When Perros faced Rosalie, it was not a man facing a woman, but a child facing a mother.

The men in the Charlotte family are somewhat naive. For example, where Dafu and Owen are at Cake Island, someone opened the door for them, but they insisted on using their ability to enter (rather destroying the door) and showing their ability. big kids.

Charlotte's children are growing up without their father, and their mother is not at home. Even if they have older brothers and sisters, they cannot replace their parents.

So when Perospero saw Rosalie, an ordinary mother, he felt unbalanced.

In terms of metaphor, it is a child who is unfortunate enough not to be favored by his mother, watching other people's children being embraced and kissed by their mothers.

So he was jealous of Beatrice in the end, he wished for her to be in pain, so that he would not be in pain.

But he is also contradictory. He hopes that Rosalie will win and that she can live, because he is a child who is not blessed by his mother, so seeing other people's mothers confronting his own mother, he hopes that Rosalie can win. As a mother, He wanted Rosalie to win over his mother and prove her wrong.

Rosalie has seen through this, and she has done it. She loves her daughter deeply from the beginning to the end, but she is not selfish or distorted. The love is correct and warm.

In the end, Rosalie saw that Perospero was actually saying to the unfortunate child, "It's okay, there is nothing wrong with longing for the mother's love. You have nothing wrong with it. It is your mother who is wrong."

Beatolis, or Yuxi who just woke up, and Ningning for a while, no doubt won Perospero's favor and love because of her sincere tolerance.

ps: The reason why Ningning is called Ningning is because she woke up not long ago and has been staring at the lemon in a daze, so Perospero called it that.

The reason why she regained consciousness after sleeping for three days was because the soul of the last world was synchronizing with this body. The crying before, and the series of physiological reactions of drinking milk were the body's instinct until Rosalie died and Perospero came again. By her side, she can truly integrate into this world.

At this point, the first volume is completely over.
