Pirate: I talk about the world in the sea

Chapter 182 Ace, let’s pass on the name of the Golden Lion! (Please subscribe)

"Grandpa, we brought you lunch!"

The golden lion Shiji, who was resting on the bed in the tree house, heard this voice and struggled to get up from the small bed.

It has been three days since he came to Marshall Village, and he is roughly familiar with the two little guys who rescued him. Generally speaking, these two little guys are pretty good.

Not only did they find gauze to bandage the wounds on his body, but they also brought him food every day during meals.

"Old man, why are you up again? Didn't I tell you that you were seriously injured?"

As soon as Ace and his rice basket climbed up to the tree house, they saw Shiji getting up again and scolded with some dissatisfaction.

Although he has become a little cunt under the influence of Cronus' pile of books, but to the enemy, what bad intentions can an old man who is injured and dying have any bad intentions?

Faced with Ace's preaching, Shiji, who was killing people on the sea, was not angry. Instead, he sat back on the small bed with a smile.

If his former subordinates and enemies knew about this scene, their eyes would be shattered.

"Ace, Luffy, what are you eating today?"

After a few days of getting along, Shi Ji already knew the names of the two little guys from the names they called each other. As for the last names of the two children... Shi Ji didn't bother to ask.

What evil intentions can two children have?
Besides, what kind of noble surname can there be in such a remote mountain village?Possible surnames are probably like Ergou and Goudan.

There's no way he just drifted into a village that was Garp and Sengoku's hometown, right?
"Grandpa, Aunt Lujiu cooked a lot of food today. The main dish is eel rice. There are barbecued meats and fried tempura. It's delicious."

Luffy, whose eyes glowed golden whenever he talked about eating, introduced Shiki non-stop,

While Luffy was talking, Ace took out the delicacies in the rice basket one by one.

After rescuing Shiji, he went home and talked about it with his mother. Lujiu was very happy when she learned that Ace and Luffy had bravely rescued a poor old man who fell into the water.

After all, every mother likes her child to be an optimistic, cheerful, and positive child.

Lujiu, who was in a very happy mood, not only cooked a sumptuous dinner for Ace and Luffy, but also promised to make enough for one person every day for them to deliver to Shiji after they finished the meal.

After Ace took out all the food, he counted it and realized something was wrong. Where was the barbecue?He obviously put the barbecue in.

"Luffy--"

Ace turned his head and looked directly at Luffy.

Being stared at by Ace like this, Luffy had a few drops of cold sweat on his forehead, and his mouth unconsciously pouted to one side (this was Wang Luffy's habitual movement of lying).

"That... that, I, I definitely didn't take advantage of the rice basket to eat."

Although he said that, the other two people knew instantly who the culprit was because of his artificial expression.

"boom!"

"Oh, it hurts so much!"

"Luffy, you little greedy kid, didn't you have lunch when we came here?"

Ace punched Luffy on the head. Luffy was obviously like a starving ghost reincarnated during lunch. After eating, Luffy could barely walk, but he was able to sneak another piece of barbecue on the way.

This amount of food made Ace certain that Luffy was definitely the biological grandson of the old man who ate their family's one-month supply of food in three days.

"Okay, okay, Ace, it's normal for children to be greedy. I might not be able to finish the food just now."

Shiki stopped Ace who wanted to give Luffy a slap in the face, took the chopsticks handed to him by Ace and started eating today's lunch.

15 minutes later,
"belch!"

Shiji put down his plate and burped, and Ace wiped the dishes after he finished.

"By the way, Ace, where did you get this sword?"

Shi Ji, who had nothing to do, saw the big sharp knife Xiaolong Jingguang put aside by Ace and asked Ace.

He had wanted to ask Ace about this for a long time. After all, Shi Ji was also the world's greatest swordsman before he broke his leg. With his sophisticated eyes, it was not difficult to tell that this was Xiaolong Jingguang, one of the 21 swordsmen. .

"Oh, that knife was a gift from my father."

Ace lowered his head and wiped the dinner plate. He found that there was a stain that was very stubborn today. No matter how many times he wiped it with a rag, there were still traces left on it.

"Oh, sorry."

Shiji looked at Ace's ferocious face with his head lowered, and combined with what he said, he thought it was a relic left to him by his father.

"Cough! Cough! Cough! Cough!"

Just as Ace was struggling with the dinner plate, Shiki started coughing violently again.

"Grandpa, are you okay?"

Ace put down his plate, supported Shiji, and patted him on the back.

"it's okay no problem."

Shiji comforted Ace and wiped the blood from his palm where Ace couldn't see it.

Shi Ji knew very well that he might not be able to hold on much longer.

Shi Ji couldn't help but feel a little sad when he thought that he would die of illness before he could make a comeback.

As a great pirate who once reached his peak, Shi Ji was prepared to die from the day he went to sea. He was never afraid of death, but what he was afraid of was that no one would remember him as time went by. The name of the golden lion.

At this time, Shiji couldn't help but think of his lifelong enemy Gol D. Roger, although Roger was executed by the Navy a few years ago.

But at least he used his own life to start the era of great pirates. As long as the profession of pirates still exists, people will remember Roger as the Pirate King.

Moreover, Roger is a lucky bastard, and there is Cronus, the successor in the pirate group. As Cronus's reputation has become more and more famous in recent years, when people mention Cronus Roger is often brought along as a guide.

Although Cronus took away Shiki's inheritance, Shiki still admitted in his heart that if he were Cronus's age, he wouldn't even be worthy to carry his shoes.

I really envy you, Roger. I wonder who will remember me, Shiji the Golden Lion, in a few years?

"Old man, old man, are you okay?"

Ace raised his hand in front of Shiji who was lost in thought.

Shiji came back to his senses and looked at Ace who was caring about him. He suddenly had a good idea.

It seems that Cronus, the successor, was brought out by Roger from a small village. If he can find a successor to inherit the name of the Golden Lion, he will be as famous as Cronus in the future.

Wouldn’t his Golden Lion’s name also be praised by the sea?
As for the candidate for the successor, is there anyone more suitable than the little guy in front of me?
The more Shi Ji thought about it, the more he realized that his idea was extremely wise.

In order to take care of the old man Shiji these days, Ace and Luffy have been playing not far from the tree house, and Shiji has also seen Ace and Luffy hunting wild animals in the forest in their free time.Luffy may be too young. Shiki still can't tell whether he has any talent in fighting. The only thing that can be praised is that his recovery ability is amazing. One time, Luffy accidentally scratched his skin and ended up eating a meal. The wound disappeared completely.

He has such strong resilience at such a young age. If he hadn't looked completely different from Cronus and Kaido, Shiki would have suspected that Luffy was related to one of them.

But Ace's fighting talent simply astonished Shiji. Whether he was fighting beasts with a knife or bare hands, every move had a everyone's style.

In this case, either he has been guided by famous experts since he could walk, or he is born strong.

Shi Ji decisively believed the latter. After all, how could a master live in seclusion here on such a remote island?Then his brain must be broken.

Since Cronus's first battle was to angrily criticize Shiki, Shiki had a very clear impression of meeting Cronus for the first time.

Although Kronos's recovery power was a bit scary at that time, he was definitely not taken seriously by Shiji.

Shiki dared to bet on his Golden Lion name that Ace's talent would definitely be as good as that of Cronus.

It seems that God still favors me, allowing me to meet a little guy who can inherit the title of Golden Lion before I die.

Thinking about it, Roger and I were really destined. Roger unearthed a Cronus in a small mountain village, and now he also found his successor in a small mountain village.

When he thought of this, Shiji's eyes became firmer, and he looked at Ace beside him seriously for the first time.

"Ace, what do you want to do when you grow up?"

"Well, I want to be a big pirate."

Ace thought for a moment and answered Shiji's question. After all, his father was now a big boss in the pirate world, so of course he wanted to inherit his father's legacy.

"You are a big pirate, Ace, are you willing to be my apprentice? I can teach you powerful swordsmanship."

"But...wait, I do."

Originally, Ace wanted to say that he already had Uncle Rayleigh teaching him swordsmanship, but he remembered that in the book "Sea Adventure" that his father once gave him, he wrote that if he was seriously injured, especially a broken hand or leg, When the old man wants to accept him as his disciple, he must agree.

Although Ace didn't know why his father told him this, as a filial son of the Marshall family, Ace had always listened to his father's words.

Moreover, since Aunt Xia Qi went out last time for unknown reasons, Uncle Lei Li has been sluggish every day, which is just a good time for him to rest more.

"Okay, kowtow to me, and you will be my only disciple from now on."

Shiji smiled boldly. To be honest, this was the first time in his life that he was so happy since the battle of Ed Waugh.

"Master is up!"

Ace knelt down and knocked his head to the ground.

Luffy on the side looked at Ace acting stupidly and asked Shiji:

"Grandpa, do you want me to kowtow to you too?"

"You don't have to, you don't have to."

Shiji decisively rejected Luffy. With his current body, every time he moved his hands, he would probably die several days early.

It was impossible to slowly teach by words and deeds like a traditional master teaches his disciples. He must give Ace all the sword moves he knew in a very short period of time, except for the sword moves that can only be used when combined with the Piao Piao Fruit.

Regardless of whether he can eat it now, at least let it leave a deep impression on him in his mind, so that after his death, Ace can slowly cultivate by himself.

But this teaching method requires a lot of practical exercises, but in order to train a successor, it doesn't matter if you die a few days early.

But if there is a little Luffy, then Shiji's death will not be a matter of a few days.

And unlike the smart Ace, Luffy always looked silly. This naivety made Shiji look familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him before.

The most important point is that every time Shiki sees Luffy, he always feels as if he has swallowed a big bowl of flies, as if he and Roger, that bastard, are at odds with him.

Shiji shook his head hard to shake the chaotic thoughts out of his brain. He must be too nervous.

No matter how reluctant he was to admit it, Roger was a man who had defeated him. How could a stupid boy be like Roger?
"Then Ace, come with me. From today on, I will teach you everything I know! Luffy, you can watch from the side if you want. It should be good for you in the future."

"Ah? Master, are you in such a hurry?"

Ace was a little caught off guard. He originally wanted to tell his mother that according to the tradition of the Marshall family, didn't they have to hold an apprenticeship banquet after becoming an apprentice?

When he was one month old, his father set up several tables in Marshall Village!

"Time waits for no one. My teacher's body knows that there is not much time left. I want to teach you everything I know in the last time."

After that, Shiji grabbed Ace's little hand and walked out of the tree house regardless of his injuries.

"Ace, grandpa, wait for me!"

Ace's follower Luffy followed closely behind them.

………………

When Shiki took Ace and Luffy to find a suitable training venue, three heads emerged from the grass behind them.

It was the trio of Rayleigh, Jabba, and Shaqi.

Lu Jiu was very happy that Ace helped others, but Ace's identity was too special after all. In order to ensure his safety, Lu Jiu specifically asked her best friend Xia Qi for help, hoping that she could protect Ace.

Xia Qi, who had raised Ace as half a son, naturally agreed to Lujiu's request for help, so today when Ace was delivering food to Shiji, she grabbed Rayleigh and Jabba who were about to sunbathe. Follow Ace all the way here.

"Jabba, that guy must be Shiki, right?"

"It must be Shiji. I can recognize the rudder on his head even if it turns to ashes. But how could he drift to Marshall Village and be so miserable?"

Jabba had just taken a brief look at Shiji's injuries from a distance, and could only say that such a serious injury would definitely not last long.

It's not that Jabba is bragging about himself and Rayleigh, now Shiji, as long as he doesn't have to escape with the Piaoli Fruit, either he or Rayleigh is sure to take him down within fifty rounds.

"Bang! Bang!"

Xia Qi punched the two gentlemen each.

"Is now the time to care about these things? Hurry up and follow him to see what he is going to do with little Ace and Xiao Lufei!"

"Oh, yes yes yes!"

After Xia Qi reminded the two old guys, they remembered their own jobs.

As a result, a group of grass slowly approached in the direction where Shi Ji and the others left.
