Pirates of the Navy

Chapter 627 The end of an era
"New World", a hidden sea somewhere.

Today, on the Moby Dick, there is no more smile.

The five big and three rough guys in the past all have red eyes today, with sad expressions, and a little inexplicable blankness in their eyes.

"White beard".

This name that has ruled the sea for decades, this name that stands at the pinnacle of the times, this name that made all of them willingly sacrifice their lives, is disappearing bit by bit
"Dad."

Outside the door of the locked main ship, there was a sad and solemn atmosphere.

Many crew members couldn't help shouting that word in a low voice when passing by the gate unintentionally or deliberately.

That's the bond that connects all the Whitebeards, they're family.

"Once you get old, it's really useless."

Edward Newgate sat quietly on the huge stone chair, looking a little tired.

He has lived for too long, and he is a little tired.

"Dad, don't say that."

Kneeling on one knee and half-kneeling in the first position at the bottom of "White Beard", Ace, who has matured a lot, has tears in his eyes.

We all know that this day will come sooner or later, but when this day comes, it seems so unacceptable.

He hasn't let "father" watch "Whitebeard" ascend to the top of the world with his own eyes, how could "father" abandon all his sons so cruelly.

If only time could slow down a little bit, just a little bit slower
"It's still not a man, what is it like to cry."

Looking reproachfully at the stupid sons in the cabin who lowered their heads and suppressed tears, "White Beard" was half relieved and half annoyed.

His stupid sons are like him, although they bear the name of pirates, they are not qualified pirates, so how can he rest assured after leaving.

"Ace, come here."

After taking a few breaths, the face of "White Beard" suddenly calmed down, and he raised his hand to greet Ace to come forward. The burly old man changed into a comfortable posture, as if he wanted to explain something.

"Dad!"

Sweeping the calm expression on the face of "White Beard", Ace felt sad instead of happy, and suddenly refreshed after the oil was exhausted, which was clearly the reflection of the dying moment.

"come here."

Seeing Ace's delay in moving, "White Beard" couldn't help being slightly angry, with a look of regret in his eyes.

His stupid son is good at everything, but his luck is not very good.

If the kid Yato Shenryuyi hadn't been born, "Whitebeard" would have wanted Ace to have a go at sea.

But the evildoers descended from the sky, the heroes were all overshadowed, and there was nothing he could do about it at the wrong time.

After all, compared with fame, life is the most important thing.

"Dad, don't get excited, I'll come right away."

Seeing that "White Beard" seemed to be really angry, Ace hurriedly walked a few steps and came to the father.

"Ace, do you still remember the promise that Yato Shenryuichi and I made back then? Just do it."

Staring at Ace who was standing with his head down, "White Beard" spoke slowly.

"Dad!"

Hearing this, Ace and the other captains all changed their expressions.

It's only been a year since "White Dragon" arrived on the Moby Dick alone, how could they forget about that nasty guy.

As for the agreement that "father" said, they are naturally clear.

With the death of "Whitebeard", the "Whitebeard" pirate group must be disbanded on the spot. For the past crimes, the Navy will not blame the past.

Otherwise, there is only one result of war.

"Father, we are not afraid of the navy, you must not!"

"I'm useless, I'm useless!"

"Wooooow, I don't want to leave "Whitebeard", this is my home."

Seeing the old story of "White Beard" brought up again, the captains could no longer suppress the complicated emotions in their hearts, and immediately burst into tears.

They hated Bailong, and hated themselves even more.

After all, although Yato Shenlongyi is hateful, the identities of the two parties doomed their hostility. From the enemy's point of view, it is understandable for him to do so.

What these captains, including Ace who has become the helm, hate more is their own incompetence!
If they could be stronger, why would "Papa" disband the pirate group he built.

If they were stronger, how could "Papa" bow to the navy for their safety.

If they were stronger, how could the reputation of "White Beard" have fallen to such a point.

Shame, self-blame, resentment.

Ace and the captains all had red eyes.

"Stupid boys."

Sighing helplessly, "White Beard" felt very uncomfortable.

As a pirate, he knew that by doing so, he was obliterating the infinite possibilities that these children originally had.

But as a father, he only hopes that these silly sons can live.

Even if you resent him, even if you don't live happily.

This is the simplest and most selfish wish of "White Beard".

"Sitting for a long time, go outside for a walk."

After closing his eyes and slowly opening them, Whitebeard got up, and picked up the huge naginata that he had used all his life.

Knife in hand, majestic.

It seems that the old man is not going for a walk in class A, but is going to fight in his clothes.

"Dad!"

Seeing the generous back walk out of the hatch, Ace and the team leaders burst into tears.

"Pop" is indeed going out again, to fight a battle from which he will never return.

One step, two steps, three steps.

The deck, which can be reached in a few steps in the past, is so long today.

But "Whitebeard" didn't care, he walked slowly, quietly watching everything on the Moby Dick.

When he walked out of the hatch and came to the deck, countless tearful crowds gathered at some point.

Seeing those familiar faces, White Beard felt sour.

However, the old man who has experienced the storm still did not let the tears flow.

"Ku la la la la, serve the wine."

In a person's life, having a son is like this, what more can a husband ask for, than holding a golden cup, tasting sake, and traveling far away.

"Dad!"

Hearing the sound of "serving wine", the deck knelt down and made a kneeling.

They stared at the burly figure who had sheltered their useless sons so many times.

They know that every glance now may be the last.

"Father, here comes the wine."

No one was willing to leave at this time. In the end, with tears in his eyes, Ace dug out the old man's wine plate from the cabin, poured a plate full of good wine, and handed it to "White Beard".

"Good wine."

"White Beard" laughed just by smelling it without any supplies.

I think that he traveled all over the world all his life, climbed to the top of the "Pirate" throne, climbed to the top, fell to the trough, was betrayed and admired by others.

Where is there any regret?

“Good wine!”

He drank his favorite wine in one breath, and the white beard smiled boldly, leaning on the knife and holding the plate, facing the sea where he had been drifting all his life.

"The sea is so nice."

Pure and simple, Edward Newgate's last words, so it is
