Pirates: Starting from being rescued by Roger

Loki followed Roger to a house halfway up the mountain and stopped. Roger knocked on the door. Loki stood there and looked at the house: it was similar in style to Lujiu's house, but it was surrounded by a fence. A yard with some flowers and vegetables planted in it. "It seems that no matter which world the old people are in, they all have a common habit of planting things in the open space in front of their homes..." Loki thought to himself.

"The same goes for Lujiu's family. How can anyone build their home on the edge of a cliff? It's inconvenient to go anywhere, not to mention the strong wind blowing there when the weather is bad. How can you be alone at home without panic? I really don’t know if Lu Jiu has really come here all these years." Loki complained crazily in his heart. "But if you think about it carefully, there is an advantage. It is built on the edge of a cliff and no one else comes to communicate. It is estimated that no one on the entire island except Granny Mai and her family knows Lujiu. Roger has been here for more than half a year. How has the island reacted? You must know that this guy is the Pirate King! Before the dragon was born, he was probably the most vicious criminal in history! Such a big man appeared on the island for more than half a year and no one noticed it. I can only sigh that Lujiu is indeed living there. Rather..."

The door opened and an old woman with gray hair came out, wearing a gray dress with an apron tied around her waist. "It's Roger. What's the matter? How is the child you rescued? Is Lujiu okay?" Seeing the old woman Roger at the door, she asked a series of questions.

"Um..." Roger was a little confused by this series of questions. He organized his words and said, "The kid has woken up and is very healthy now." After saying that, he waved to Loki and asked him to come over. Loki saw it and trotted to the door. "Lu Jiu is in very good health now. I am here to bother you this time as before. I hope you can lend me the fishing boat. I am going to catch some fish." "No problem, the boat is still in the original position. Now my old man is older. I don’t go fishing much anymore. You don’t have to come to say hello every time you want to use the boat. You can use it when you want. When you’re done, just put it back in its original place.”

"Haha, why are you so embarrassed?" Roger said with a smile. "There's nothing to be embarrassed about. We have been old friends with Lu Jiu's parents for decades, and we watched Lu Jiu grow up. As long as you are nice to Lu Jiu, we will be happy, and I think Lu Jiu is with you. I am very happy and this is enough..." Granny Mai said with some emotion.

At this time, Loki trotted over and bowed to Granny Mai: "Hello, Granny Mai, my name is Loki. Please take good care of me in the future." "Oh? The little guy is quite energetic. Is your name Loki?" What a nice name." Granny Mai smiled and nodded.

"That's right, my name is quite popular in Blue Star!" Loki thought to himself with a proud look on his face.

"Okay, now that we've finished saying hello, we won't interrupt. Granny Mai, you're busy, this kid and I are going to go fishing at sea." After Roger said this, he pulled Loki and walked towards the seaside.

"Go and be safe! Loki comes to play when you have time." Granny Mai waved goodbye to Loki.

Loki followed Roger to the beach and was confused when he saw the boat in front of him: "Hey, are you sure this boat can come back after it goes to sea? It's too broken! Not only is it broken, but it's also small." The boat in front of him is a It was a common wooden sailboat, with patches scattered all over the boat, and there were also several patches on the sails. Occasionally, a heart-wrenching "squeaking" sound can be heard from the deck as the sea breeze blows.

"Hahaha, no problem. Grandpa Mai said that this is a lucky ship. It has never had an accident in forty years of sailing across the sea. And you don't have to worry, this ship has been reinforced by me." Roger As he spoke, he pointed to the scattered patches.

"Have you ever thought that Grandpa Mai might have decided not to go fishing anymore after seeing these patchwork patches?" Loki said quietly. "Aren't you a pirate? Why are you so bad at repairing ships? I really don't know how you have been able to navigate the sea all these years."

"Hey! I'm the captain. It would be nice to have a boatman to repair the ship. You know, my boatman's skills are the best in the world..."

"Tch! With the blessing of the aura of your world's number one pirate group, we must be number one in the world in everything." Loki said disdainfully.

"Hey! You little brat, you know how to understand! Sometimes I really wonder if you are possessed by a monster. I won't tell you anymore. If you want to eat meat, just go up there!" Roger said and stepped onto the fishing boat.

"I can tell you, if the ship sinks, remember to save me. I will be a landlubber now." Loki followed him anxiously.

"Raise the sails and set sail!" Roger put up the sails and rowed the boat towards the sea with the oars.

"This sea area is so calm that it makes you want to sleep." Loki sat on the deck and looked at the calm sea.

"Didn't I say that there is something special about this sea area? The 20-nautical mile radius of Batelila Island has always been so calm, and fish are reluctant to come. It has always been like this on the island, and the storms that are common on the sea are even worse every year on the island. It’s a rare encounter,” Roger said as he paddled at the stern of the boat.

"No wonder there are few people fishing on the island. Paddling forty miles back and forth by hand is a big test on your physical strength." After hearing Roger's explanation, Loki nodded.

"Loki, I have something very important to tell you." Roger put down the oar in his hand and came to Loki.

"Tch, what else can you do? You have a successful career and a happy family." Loki said disdainfully.

"I don't have much time left." Roger said seriously.

"What do you mean?" Although Loki already knew this, he still looked surprised. "What do you mean, time is running out. You seem to be fine."

"It's true. I was diagnosed with an incurable disease before I started my final journey. Even though I have the best doctor in the world on my ship, he can't cure it and can only delay it. When I got off the ship, my ship's doctor told me I still have a year at most." Roger said calmly. "I will be leaving in a while, and I plan to meet a few old friends at the end. Then I will go to the Navy Headquarters to see my old opponents from these decades."

Although he already knew the plot, Loki was shocked to hear it from Roger himself. It turned out that someone could really wait and accept his own death so calmly... "What will you do if you leave Lujiu? She knows your situation. What? What about your unborn child? You know it’s impossible for the World Government to let One Piece’s child survive in the world!”

"Lujiu knew from the beginning..." Roger's tone was full of apology. "As for the fact that I will entrust the child to a trustworthy person, you don't have to worry." "As for Lujiu, I can only leave it to you and Granny Mai. After I am arrested, the world government will try their best to find me. Don’t think about leaving during this year’s whereabouts, because anything unusual will be noticed by the World Government’s agents and the navy. Just live a normal life as usual.”

"Why are you entrusting me with such an important matter? Although I was rescued by you, we just met today! And I am only six years old. Can I really take on such a big responsibility?" Loki said. I asked Roger and half myself.

"Hahaha, Loki, do you believe in fate? Our meeting was arranged by fate! Don't underestimate yourself. Although you are still young, you have incredible power." Roger said with a smile.

"I forgot that this guy has the ability to listen to the voices of all things. Maybe he can see through what I'm thinking right now." Loki rolled his eyes and said, "Okay, I promise you will take care of Lujiu, but starting from tomorrow I I want you to start training me. I want to learn to fight. Only in this way will I not be afraid of danger."

"Hahaha, okay, but I only have three months. How much you can learn from me in these three months depends entirely on your understanding." Roger said with a smile.

"Okay, without further ado, go sail the boat right away and catch the fish, then hurry up and train!" Rocky yelled at Roger, pointing at the paddle at the stern of the boat.
