Chapter 68 Roger's Funeral
An unknown island in the East China Sea.﹥Miscellaneous + Chronicles + Insects﹥
The Black Pearl stopped quietly on the shore, and a group of people slowly walked off the deck carrying a stretcher with a heavy face. The stretcher was covered with a white cloth, and the atmosphere looked very heavy and sad.
Half an hour later, a tall tombstone stood in the center of the island. Above the towering grave was a pirate flag that fluttered in the wind. On the pirate, there were two white skulls flying high. The black curly hair is extremely dazzling.
On the tombstone, there is also a hat, a long knife, and a pistol.
These are the last relics of the generation of Pirate King Gore, D, Roger!
"Old man, haha, I didn’t expect you to succeed in the end, start a big era, awaken your dreams, and make the whole world burn, and the decadent era will eventually be burned by your fire. Hahaha, it is ours. Captain, I must die so vigorously." In front of the tombstone, Rayleigh drank wine and laughed, but with a smile, the corners of the eyes of this no longer young man were also moistened, staring at the tombstone. The relic, with a sorrowful smile on his mouth, spilled the unfinished wine in front of the tombstone, and smiled:
"However, today, everyone is here to see you for the last time, and I hope you go all the way!"
The rest of the Roger Pirates group beside him, including Chu Han, Shanks also raised the wine in his hand, making a sound of shaking the sky in unison, saying:
"Captain, go all the way!"
The sound fell, the wine was drunk, tears flowed from everyone's eyes, and wept unscrupulously.
"Roger, go all the way, you have not reached the top, so let me go on!" Chu Han looked calm, drank the wine in his hand, lowered his head, a faint light flashed in his eyes, holding The hand holding the handle of the Murakami couldn't help but force a little bit, secretly said:
"The gears of the old era have collapsed, and the new era has begun. The heroes are vying for the front, a hundred ships are vying for the flow, and countless lords have risen to fight for the throne you left behind, but..."
The corners of Chu Han's mouth curled up, his hands stretched out vaguely, and he suddenly squeezed, as if he was holding the whole world, his eyes exploded and shot out bright light, and his heart was full of pride.
"However, the mere throne of One Piece cannot satisfy me. What I want is the whole world... because this era belongs to my era!"
Three hours later, a funeral banquet began.
Black Pearl, above deck
All opened their stomachs and drank, drank wildly, clinked glasses in laughter and tears, embraced, used wine, laughter, cries, and tears to remember the captain who passed away but lived forever in their hearts.
They cried, laughed, drank heavily, sang the songs they had sung with Roger before, and then became drunk in sadness and weeping, unscrupulous drunks lying on the table, on the deck, and in the cabin. The incomparable aroma of wine, like a heavy sorrow, drifted away on the pirate ship for a long time.
After the banquet, it was dusk, and the afterglow of the setting sun shrouded the entire island, making it extremely peaceful.
"Chu Han, are you really not going to follow us?" On the beach, Shanks looked at Chu Han, who was indifferent on the other side, with a complicated expression.
Chu Han shook his head and smiled lightly: "No, I still have something to do"
"But..." Shanks was full of regret, and then he didn't know what he thought of. His eyes flashed with excitement, and he looked at Chu Han with a smile: "Chu Han, why don't you come to be my deputy captain? The New Pirate Group"
"Shanks, I'm sorry, I can't agree to your request." Chu Han was slightly startled when he heard the words, and then shook his head, with a sly smile on his mouth, and said in a deep voice:
"After all, you and I are not willing to be the next generation, are you?"
"This..." Shanks was speechless. Although he wanted Chu Han to be his partner, after experiencing so many things, he also knew a lot about Chu Han. Chu Han is definitely an ambitious man. Shanks didn't hate this, because Shanks, he and Chu Han were the same person.
Dreams, in fact, are no different from ambitions, but the former sounds beautiful, while the latter sounds evil!
"Okay, Shanks, don't make this kind of joke anymore." At this moment, Leily walked off the deck, put his hand on Shanks' straw hat, and laughed domineeringly:
"You all have your own path and your own life. You should work hard to chase your dreams. Why stick to a momentary parting? Are you right? Shanks!"
"Hmm" Shanks nodded, pressed the straw hat, and said with a smile: "In this case, Chu Han, I won't force you, but I have a hunch that we might become opponents in the future, maybe. At that time, don't you expect me to release the water?"
"If you let the water go, you won't be the real Shanks." Chu Han smiled faintly, his eyes were lingering, and said: "However, that day should not be far away. If you become an enemy, I hope you can go all out. I Waiting for your challenge!"
"Definitely!" Shanks said firmly.
After speaking, Shanks and Chu Han looked at each other and smiled. Both of them saw Ling Li's fighting spirit in each other's eyes.
"Haha, I really look forward to how you will fight in the future. It must be a fierce battle." Lei Li narrowed his eyes and smiled heartily:
"However, it's getting late now. It's about to sail. Shanks, don't you go and raise the sails, what are you doing here?"
As he said, Lei Li's big fist slammed down, causing Shankston to scream in pain, and he ran back to the boat, but did not immediately raise the sail, but pulled Bucky and happily said to join the group. Things like that.
"This kid..." Seeing Shanks's back, Lei Li shook his head helplessly and smiled bitterly, then turned to look at Chu Han and smiled:
"Chu Han, what are your plans next? Are you planning to form a pirate group by yourself?"
"Perhaps?" Chu Han shook his head slightly, prevarication.
"Although you can continue to be a pirate, the old man is very happy, but I have to say, you have to be careful these days" Lei Li said solemnly and said:
"According to what you did in Rogue Town, you have already entered the attention of the high-level navy. Although they will be scrupulous because they just let us go, they won't do it right away, but in order to prevent you from growing up in the future and threatening them. Ruling, private siege, and assassination activities are absolutely indispensable, so the old man recommends that you go back to the Chambord Islands with the old man to avoid the limelight."
"Avoid the wind?" Chu Han was taken aback, with a hint of sarcasm at the corner of his mouth, and said domineeringly: "This is not necessary. They can't hold me under the situation in Luoge Town, and it's even more impossible to get outside. Moreover, these Isn’t it also a kind of training? Only by killing and being killed can you grow faster, Uncle Raleigh, what do you think?"
"Yes, only the temper of blood and fire can create the real strong." Lei Li smiled heartily: "Since you have decided, the old man will not say much, but if there are any problems that cannot be solved, please come to the old man. , As long as you still recognize the old man as your deputy captain"
"Of course" Chu Han smiled faintly when he heard the words, a strange light flashed in his eyes, and said: "Uncle Leily, if you go to the Chambord Islands, where will the other seniors go? They are not afraid that the navy will continue to chase them?"
"Those old guys have been away from home for so many years. It's time to go back and take a look." Reilly smiled: "However, your concerns are superfluous. There has always been a hidden rule between the pirates and the navy. After the Jie Pirate Group is disbanded, we will no longer be pirates. As long as nothing happens, the navy will generally not waste our efforts against us. This kind of unspoken rule has been going on for hundreds of years. Of course, this is only for strength. It’s just a powerful pirate group"
"Oh?"
Hearing that, Chu Han narrowed his eyes slightly, and an inexplicable expression flashed in his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.
Seeing this, Lei Li thought that Chu Han was still worried, and then smiled heartily: "So you don't have to worry about our group of old people, and chase your dreams with peace of mind. After all, the new era belongs to your young people."
After speaking, Lei Li patted Chu Han's shoulder encouragingly. After speaking some words, he turned and returned to the boat. The sails raised, the strong wind came, and everyone left.
Looking at the drifting Black Pearl, Chu Han stood proudly on the beach, recalling what Raleigh had said quietly, his eyes narrowed, and he chuckled: "Interestingly, this is reminding me not to fight the rest of Roger Pirates. The idea of the members? No matter, it's just icing on the cake, the only thing you can trust is your own strength!"
"Moreover, it's about time." Chu Han's eyes flashed with a gleam of light, and he said loudly:
"system!"
"Ding! The second task is completed, and the task reward will be issued soon. Do you want to receive it?" The cold machine's voice sounded again.
"receive!"
"The task rewards are issued, the bloodline has been upgraded to a grade, and the spirit of speech is being activated at will... Ding! Congratulations to the host for acquiring the spirit of speech..."
