As before, shanks left the straw hat to Luffy as a witness and agreement of their faith.

After that, shanks and others stayed in the village for a few days and bought many necessary supplies before leaving.

"Shanks, you see, I will go to sea, and become strong and strong in front of you, I will be the king of pirates." Luffy, in his straw hat, gave shanks a thumbs up.

After making an agreement again, shanks said goodbye to Luffy. When he was about to get on the boat, he stopped.

"What's the matter, shanks?" Beckman wondered. He felt that the captain was a little wrong.

Shanks's eyes looked into the distance, and his eyes became more and more profound. There was a forest there, and in the depth of the forest, there was a highland.

All of a sudden, he said with a deep smile, "Beckman, you wait for me on the boat for a while. I have something to deal with."

"Oh, wait..." Beckman was just about to ask when shanks's figure had gone out and disappeared in front of him in the blink of an eye.

"What a misfortune for me to have such a captain on the stand." Beckman sighed and turned to the boat.

……

In the forest, shanks's figure moves fast.

The forest wind blows, the leaves in his fast moving sound.

A moment later, he stopped in front of the highland, and a figure in a black robe turned with a smile.

"Long time no see, shanks." Calm words, gentle smile, and more than ten years ago when he did not have any difference, the years did not leave even a trace on his body.

If shanks had not practiced "sword like thunder" for many years, he would have regarded him as a tree or a stone.

Taking a deep breath and suppressing the excitement in his heart, shanks deeply saluted and said, "teacher, long time no see!"

With a smile and a wave of hands, Xuan did not respond to shanks' address. Although he once said that he did not accept shanks as a disciple, he did not deny that the other party had always called him that way.

"Teacher, why are you here?" As he looked up, shanks asked directly.

Since the dissolution of Roger pirates, the news of the God of time and space has disappeared on this sea. Many people tried to find it, but all of them failed.

Over the years, the news that the God of time and space is dead has been circulating, but there are not many markets.

Just like on the sea, the news that Raleigh has died is often circulated. What you really know is listening to it as a joke.

"I'm here to see the protagonist. You've already seen it." Xuan didn't hide anything and said with a smile.

Shanks stepped forward and stood at a position almost parallel to Xuan. From Xuan's perspective, he was surprised, because from this hillside, he had a panoramic view of the whole Windmill Village.

But in fact, they are just in front of a forest, strange and natural scene presented in front of him, let him shock at the same time with emotion.

The teacher is still a teacher, so many years still unfathomable.

"Teacher, do you mean Luffy?" Shanks asked. He had these thoughts when he saw Luffy. The scene at that time was very similar to Xuan. He deliberately guided him to meet Luffy.

"What are the so-called protagonists?"

Xuan waved his hand and said with a smile, "protagonist, of course, means literally. A work, a play, or even a world must have a protagonist before it can be performed. Many worlds have different interpretations of these two words. When you reach a certain level of strength, you will have your own understanding. However, the protagonist of the previous generation was Roger, so you should be able to understand something. "

"Well!" Shanks's eyes coagulated, some uncertain way, "Luffy that boy, really can become the pirate king?"

If someone else said this, shanks would scoff at it. If the pirate king was so good, their four emperors and so many big pirates would not have to struggle in the new world.

We should know that the cruelty of the new world is far beyond anyone's imagination. In addition to their four emperors, there are dozens of sea Pirates of Qiwu sea level standing in the sea, and there are more pirates of the next level.

Without the strength of hundreds of millions of reward, there is no qualification to enter.

Even the strongest white beard, I dare not say whether I can become the king of pirates.

Xuan said with a smile, "that's not the meaning. Whether you can become the king of pirates is not the standard to measure the protagonist. Because he is the protagonist, and his goal is to become the king of pirates in Shanghai, so there will be the result that he will become the king of thieves in Shanghai in the future. Roger is also the same. There is no need to make a mistake about the causality."

Shanks blinked as if he understood, but he was still confused.

Xuan didn't explain it any more. What is involved in the cause and effect of the world is the most difficult to understand. It is the foundation of everything and the most profound rule. It's like an ordinary person going to popularize quantum mechanics, which is a microcosmic field. It's impossible for him to fully understand it."Well, let's not say that. You have given Roger's straw hat to him. Does that mean that you are also very optimistic about this boy. Then when my words just don't exist, you can trust your vision and look forward to it. "

Shanks nodded. "Well, I still like Luffy. There was something special about him, like the captain of the past, which I had never seen in a second man

"But Sir, you taught that guy mihok's swordsmanship?"

As the topic shifted from Luffy, shanks asked questions he had long wanted to know.

From the fight with eagle eye many years ago, he realized that the sword meaning of the other side was similar to that of himself, not the same sword moves, but a similar realm and understanding of the sword.

But after that, he never saw Xuan again, and his doubts could not be solved.

Speaking of mikhok, he is a headache. In terms of his persistence in the sword, he is above himself. Even in the new world, the two have met several times.

From the previous upper hand to the present complete balance of power, shanks sometimes doubts that he will be surpassed by the other party quietly. ..
