[One Piece] Lava and Red Rose

In the year 1521 of the Haiyuan calendar, half a year after the end of the Battle of the Top.

The end of the battle at the peak of Marlin Fodo not only completely disintegrated the maritime overlord "Whitebeard" Edward Newgate and his pirate forces who had ruled the "Great Pirate Era" for decades, The Godfather of Pirates' Whitebeard said before his death that 'ONEPIECE exists! 'And opened a new carnival era of pirates!

It is not only the sea that has been turbulent after Whitebeard's retreat, but also the Navy Headquarters of the Army of Justice, which won the Battle of the Top, is suffering from the change of times. in internal problems.

And this question can be as simple as it is simple, and as complicated as it is complex enough.Taking a simple path is like the former Marshal Kong directly electing his chosen successor, and going to the world government to make a report and ask for a letter of appointment, and that's it.Originally, Sengoku planned to imitate his former boss, the current commander-in-chief of the entire army, Commander-in-Chief Kong, and directly elected his favorite successor 'Aokiji' - the general of the Navy headquarters. Kuzan came to take his place, but somehow Yes, this kind of thing that everyone agrees to be OK has become inexplicably complicated when it comes to him...

First, Kong nodded, saying that he should report to Ligeoya, and ask Wu Laoxing for a letter of appointment, but when he was racking his brains, half of the wall in his room was knocked down by the white beard. It was raining and windy I can't stop writing tens of thousands of words of reports in the broken office, thinking, "Finally, I can go to the fucking documents, the old man is going to spend his old age in peace. Bye bye." Before stepping out of the door of his dilapidated office, the five old men above sent a message, saying that they supported 'Akainu' Sakaski's ascension.This is good, the five old stars stepped in, and the simple thing that was originally agreed to change the position of the marshal and communicate with the commander-in-chief of the army suddenly became complicated.And at this time, the Warring States period hadn't vented its anger on the juniors who were about to succeed, and was still working hard to deal with the five dead old men, until he finished the bloody video conference with the five old stars for the umpteenth time, holding his breath When he almost sent Garp to Marie Gioia to eat up the meat granary of those old ghosts, one of his young captains scrambled in, twisted his face and threw him A nuclear bomb:

"Report, report to Marshal of the Warring States Period!! General Sakaski and General Kuzan decided to fight for the position of the next marshal through a life-and-death duel due to their beliefs!!! Set on Punk Hazard!!!”

"... What did you say?" Zhan Guo was dumbfounded.

Duel of life and death? ! ! !

Competing for the position of Marshal? ! ! ! ! !

Oh shit! ! !Two bastards! ! ! ! ! ! !

This damn thing about the next marshal has already tossed his old bones enough!At such a time, those two stinky brats came to make such a big mess! ! ! !

Warring States clutched his chest and slapped the table furiously, wanting to grab the ground with his head:

Those two brats are definitely the worst class he has ever led! ! ! ! ! ! !none of them! ! ! ! !

-

Tomorrow is the date of the duel with Kuzan. One of the three admirals of the Navy Headquarters who has frightened the world with the name of "Red Dog" for many years, Admiral Sakaski silently trimmed the branches of his favorite potted pine tree, and then smoothly After tidying up the tea set for making tea, the palms that made a big hole in the white beard's chest in the battle on the top picked up the rag, carefully wiped off the water stains on the rough porcelain tea cups, and put them back according to the design and color. Then stood up and carefully moved the potted plant back to the desk... The strong and tall man did these ordinary chores without any hesitation or clumsiness, as if he had been like this for so many years. Do these chores with your own hands, the movements are smooth and natural.

His house was very quiet, except for the rustling of the leaves of various potted plants planted in the small yard by the breeze, there was no other sound.

In this area that belongs to him, he is the only resident, and there is no one else.

Before the battle on the top, Polusalino and Kuzan would break in from time to time to have a meal and drink tea or something, making him a little more popular in this house where almost no one except him has set foot, and it will not be like a haunted house It was quiet, but a lot of things have changed since that great war.

No, it should be said that the differences existed from the very beginning, but they just broke out completely during this time period...

"Puff--"

The phone bug on the table rang, and Sakaski wiped the dirt off his hands, walked over and connected the phone bug.

"Mosimoxi."

[General Sakaski, the warship that came to pick you up and General Kuzan has arrived at Marineford, please board the ship before [-]:[-] p.m., we will send you and General Kuzan to Punk Hazard Island and Stand by ten miles away. ]

Until you decide the winner by two points.

Sakaski hummed to show that he understood, didn't say much, and hung up the line.

Before two o'clock in the afternoon.

"...Then before that, I still have a little spare time."

The years have carved deep marks on that resolute and square face. When I was young, I clumsily used two layers of hats to cover up my hostile face. At this age, I no longer do those useless covers.Time can change a lot of things, from a handsome young officer who always hides his appearance to a middle-aged general who is domineering after all the vicissitudes, Sakalski has changed a lot. If there is no change, it should be that A frown that never seemed to let go.

'Even if this world is not only rainbows and candies, but I would rather believe that one day I can at least fill my world with rainbow candies. At that time, I must soak you in sugar, and see if your damn brows will still Will wrinkle together! '

The tone of the voice is soft, and the timbre is slightly dull... The man's voice seems to be always full of cheerfulness and liveliness that does not change with age. When speaking, it is always intertwined with the reservedness of the nobility and the unique carefreeness of his own personality.

…… How on earth did she combine two completely different things, rainbow and sugar, into one object in the next second?What is Skittles again.

Sakaski suddenly came back to his senses, shaking his head subconsciously, as if trying to get rid of the phantom voice in his head, but found that the person's voice and smile became clearer and clearer in his mind.

A person wearing pure white stiletto high-heeled shoes inlaid with broken diamonds stepped briskly in the darkness, the flickering light was harsh and cold, walked through his dim dreamland, and lifted his thick sheet to cover up The curtain of my heart, to explore the deeper memory inside...

But in the depths of her memory, there was no Skittles she was expecting, but only... full of devastation and ruins.

enough!

Sakaski slammed hard on the tabletop, and the huge force instantly collapsed the tea table made of mahogany. With a crackling sound, the corner of the table broke into a pile of uneven waste wood.

…………… This is a new coffee table that he just bought, and he spent more than half a month's salary.

Forget it.

Abolishing a coffee table that he liked very much, Sakalski finally calmed down.The Admiral of the Navy Headquarters 'Akainu', known for his iron-blooded ruthlessness, stood up, patted the pieces of wood off his body, found the phone bug buried in the wood block, and dialed the number of the logistics department.

[General Sakaski!What are your orders? ]

"Send a car, I'm going to Xiling."

[But you are not going this afternoon to...]

"In time, I won't delay too long, you just need to send a car over."

After finishing speaking, he hung up the line without waiting for the orderly over there to answer.

Sakaski didn't have the heart to clean up the wreckage all over the floor, turned around and walked into the room, changing clothes for the trip.

In a dark red striped suit and a light-colored shirt lined with cherry blossom shading, the tall and strong middle-aged officer did not button up his shirt to the top and tie a solemn tie around his neck like his colleagues, but casually The neckline is open, revealing the honed dark skin and a small piece of dark tattoo, which are roses and cherry blossoms.

Such a romantic tattoo is hidden under the clothes, and the tip of the iceberg is exposed with the opening of the neckline. It seems that it has nothing in common with the cold and domineering iron-blooded general... Maybe only he himself knows that the stretch covering the entire left shoulder To the meaning contained in the pattern on the chest.

A tall and straight suit wraps his muscular body, and a white coat with the word "justice" on his upper body. He has been promoted from a school lieutenant to a general, and he may even be promoted to a marshal. Sakalski has changed countless sets of military uniforms of different specifications. But only this coat of justice has not been changed from the beginning to the end. The only thing that has been changed is the epaulettes representing different military ranks on the shoulders.

The vicissitudes of life of the officer's coat have not aged due to the passage of time. It seems that it has been well taken care of by its owner. Although there are inconspicuous stitches in several places, it is still imposing, like a sharp arrow. Straighten the tempered backs of the officers.

"Before leaving, I really should go and see you."

Putting on his navy cap habitually, Sakaski murmured while buttoning his cuff buttons.

Dressed neatly, the admiral, who was about to start a life-and-death duel with his colleagues, walked silently towards the door. He passed the entrance, and he glanced at the vase on the shoe cabinet from the corner of his eye.A bouquet of blooming flowers is placed in a wide-mouthed vase. The bright colors seem out of place in this single-toned Japanese-style room, but they can catch people's attention.

"..." Sakaski seemed to think of something, he pressed the brim of his hat, and finally took a piece of wrapping paper, took out the bouquet of flowers that bloomed in the vase, wrapped them into a bunch, and put them on the hands out of the house.

"Yo, where did you send the car?"

Maybe it was the hurried footsteps of the logistics staff that disturbed his sleep, Kuzan lazily lifted the sleep mask, yawned and asked the orderly who was in a hurry to shunt the car.

"Admiral Kuzan!" The orderly seemed to be a newcomer. He was pleasantly surprised and frightened to see the admiral sleeping on the fold in the garage of the logistics department. The tall man saluted.

Kuzan made a gesture to relax and not to be nervous, and said: "Really... I'm going to fight with a fierce dog in that ghostly place that doesn't lay eggs, and I will be quarreled if I'm lazy and sleep well..."

You also know that the decisive battle with General Sakalski is about to begin!Aren't you still slacking off to sleep? ! !

Of course, the orderly didn't have the courage to complain, so he could only pretend that he didn't hear General Aokiji's complaint, and replied dutifully: "Report to General Kuzan, this is to send a car to pick up General Sakaski!"

Kuzan was taken aback when he heard that, raised his eyebrows and said, "Sakaski? Where is he going at this time?"

What right does a person sleeping in the garage have to say about others...

The orderly could hardly bear the power of complaints in his body, so he could only honestly confess the whereabouts of another general: "He said he was going to Xiling, and he also said that it would not take much time, and he would not delay boarding the ship in the afternoon. What evil."

"Ah, Xiling..." Kuzan, who had a complaining face just now, curled his lips as if the back button was pressed, and put away his complaints.

Seeing Kuzan's appearance, the orderly felt that he must know the reason why Sakalski insisted on going to Xiling before departure, so he asked curiously: "Xiling is the military mausoleum of our headquarters, right? In the past...was it sweeping the grave for whom?"

Kuzan glanced at him indifferently, as if thinking about whether to answer this question, but after thinking about it carefully, although few people know about it, it is not something that needs to be kept secret, so he answered casually:

"Oh, that guy should have gone to see his wife and children."

Wife and children?

The orderly was taken aback for a moment, and his mind seemed a little overwhelmed.

"Eh, eh——?!!!!" General Sakasky, he...

Married and have kids? ! ! ! !

etc!Xiling!

"......No way." Looking at Kuzan's undeniable eyes, the orderly's heart sank, and he suddenly realized this cruel fact.

Go to the cemetery to see his wife and children... Isn't that just...

-

The sky was covered by overcast clouds at some point, and when Sakaski got out of the car and stepped into the gate of Xiling, it started to rain.

A tall man in a white officer's overcoat climbed up the stairs, and the bunch of bright flowers was protected by him under the overcoat, blocking the increasingly dense rain.He walked past the vast tombstones familiarly, as if he had walked countless times, and he could recite the direction of this road silently without thinking about it.

Finally, he stopped in front of a mother and child grave.

-

"General Sakasky and his family..." Thinking of the seemingly invincible figure of that powerful iron-blooded general, the orderly frowned, unable to imagine what this kind of thing meant to that person.

Kuzan lay back on his orange-yellow striped folding chair, with a dull voice:

"Ah, his wife died in the 'Dreis Rosa Offshore Incident' eight years ago, and they had their three-month-old child in her stomach at that time."

Kuzan's words were like a thunderbolt, and it fell hard on the orderly's chest. He was so overwhelmed that he could only stand there speechless.

-

"…………"

The rainwater flowed into the man's tough neck along the brim of the hat, and the drizzle dripped continuously, splashing slight muddy water on the dirt in the cemetery.The man let the rain wet his face. He bent down and put the flowers that were protected from the rain under his coat in front of the tombstone.The brightly colored flowers lost their shade and were completely exposed to the rain, becoming the only color in the gloomy cemetery.

The man stood silently in front of the tombstone, his usually fierce and cold eyes were now darkened, and many emotions that had been forcibly suppressed rolled and roared in his eyes, but they were not released after all.

There are three tombstones in front of him, two of which are the tombs of mother and child, and the two larger ones are sculptured according to the specifications of naval officers, with the words "our beloved comrade in arms: Lieutenant Colonel Don Quixote Rosinanti" engraved on them.The other one is next to the slightly smaller sub-tombstone. It doesn't have any job description, but its specifications are built according to the style of high-ranking military officers. It looks like a tombstone of military family members.

The ink-black lettering is like a sharp knife, scratching Sakalski's chest, it can still produce an uncontrollable dull pain...

Wife of General Sakalski, Palace of Don Quixote Innissis.

This is engraved on the military tombstone.

But the child tomb next to it doesn't even have a name, only the affiliation of "his son" - the unborn child didn't even have a name, and was buried in the sea with his mother.

After all, the bright flowers couldn't resist the washing of the rain, and began to fall apart under the increasing rain.The petals fell from the flowers and were stuck to the gray tombstone by the rain, like a glimmer of light in the dark world, very dazzling.

red rose.

Passionate, romantic, full of sweetness...

The only flower in the world that can match her.
