Pirates on Top of the War: I Will Stand In the Sky - ~ Festival)

   Afterword (Free Chapter)

   “The new government was officially announced, consisting of the revolutionary army as the main body and representatives of the major races as the core…”

   “After the new government has negotiated and finalized many times, the Qibukai system that is not in line with the new era has been abolished, and most of the pirate reward lists have also been abolished. Only some of the most vicious people’s reward lists have been recognized by the new government and continue to offer rewards…”

   “The 199 former world kings and nobles will be put on trial in three days…”

   “The giants officially announced their participation in the new government. At this point, 73 races in the world will enter the process of mutual harmonious development…”

“Monkey D. Dorag, the top leader of the new government, had a friendly communication and consultation with the ‘Neptune’ Princess White Star, and confirmed that five kilometers below the sea surface is the living area of ​​the sea kings, and the sea kings within five kilometers below the sea surface. Impossible to enter, avoiding the more than 100,000 sea king attacks every year in the sea.”

   “Pirates have officially changed their name to Adventurers, and the new government plans to issue corresponding policies to restrict, administer and support them, encourage adventurers to explore and develop unknown islands and areas, and crack down on any criminal behavior…”

   “The new government is expected to invest trillions of Baileys in the construction of sea trains around the world, and it will only take three days to reach the great route from the East China Sea…”

  …

   On a table bathed in soft sunlight lay stacks of newspapers, lined with headlines appealing to the sea’s dramatic changes over time.

The once majestic and sturdy Marshal of the Warring States Period is now completely white-headed and wearing a leisurely beach suit. He is holding a four or five-year-old child in his arms and telling the incident in the newspaper as a story to the child. .

   “Grandfather, grandfather, I don’t want to listen to this, I’ve heard all this…”

   Facing the child’s request, Sengoku happily answered, and said with a slight glow in his eyes. “If that’s the case, then grandfather will tell little orange about the glorious history that grandfather once served as a naval marshal.”

   “Marshal? What is that?” Little Orange asked puzzled.

  In an instant, the Warring States period was blocked, and the eyes that had just started to glow completely dimmed. He didn’t know how to explain the specific navy to the little orange living in this new era.

   Immediately, Sengoku said with a proud look. “Huh? In short, now the commander-in-chief of the government’s military headquarters, General Kuzan, was once your grandfather’s subordinate, isn’t he amazing?”

   It’s just that the little orange, who looks quite similar to Sora’s childhood, rolled his eyes and said with a milky voice. “Grandfather, I want to hear about Grandpa’s deeds.”

   “Your grandfather?”

   Sengoku sighed helplessly, and then said.

   “Little Orange, no matter what, you must never imitate your grandfather. Your grandfather is a complete bastard, deceiving the world, stabbing his father in the back, greedy for money and lustful…”

   “Cough cough!”

   At this moment, a light cough sounded behind Sengoku and Xiaojuzi.

  Sengoku and Xiaojuzi turned their heads together and saw that it was Ion who was wearing common clothes and looked rather inconspicuous.

   It’s just that Ion’s appearance and age have not changed much compared to the white hair of the Warring States Period, except that his temperament has become completely lazy and calm.

   “Old man, you’ve secretly ruined my image behind my back.” Ian said with a bit of laughter.

   Sengoku, who originally had a cheerful expression at the little orange, suddenly showed a look of disgust on his face, and asked back. “Is anything wrong?”

  …

  Ion.

   Obviously, nothing is completely correct, right?

   But Ian was inexplicable and powerless to refute.

   However, with the appearance of Ion, the little orange’s eyes brightened, and he jumped straight from the arms of the Warring States period, threw himself on Ion’s body, and shouted happily.

   “Grandpa, have you returned from fishing? How’s the harvest today? Did you catch Little Orange’s favorite fish?”

“Uh……”

  Ion replied with an embarrassed yet graceful smile on his face.

   “Little orange, fishing is a kind of spiritual cultivation practice, and the harvest cannot be measured by the specific fish caught.”

   Sengoku rolled his eyes at Ion unceremoniously and said. “Obviously there is no gain.”

“Um?!”

  Ion retorted. “Last time, it was you old man who didn’t gain anything! I was completely defeated by me! Completely defeated!!”

   “You are just lucky to catch such a finger-sized fish, is that considered a victory?!”

   Sengoku suddenly stood up, rolled up his sleeves, and said. “It’s just that I didn’t exert my full strength, and I planned to let you come back. Believe it or not, I will let you see the wisdom of general fishing today?”

  Ion also said without giving up. “Old man, you can only talk big now, and you will have nothing to say in a while!”

   “Since that’s the case, let’s decide the winner again today, let’s fight to the death, **** boy!”

   “Come on, old man, this battle will convince you!”

  …

  “biu~~~Putong~”

On the shore, as two fish floats of different colors fell into the water through a perfect arc, Sengoku and Ion sat on the chairs, staring intently at the surface of the water, as if they were planning. What a big move that affects the world in general.

  Time is passing little by little…

   Three full hours passed, and neither of the two fish floats moved at all, which also made the atmosphere on both sides a little embarrassing.

   “Cough…”

   Sengoku let out a light cough, breaking the slightly calm awkward atmosphere, and said. “Speaking of which, why did you let the Straw Hats cooperate with the illusion of your disappearance and death?”

   “Dorag knows I’m not dead.”

   Ion answered briefly. “Even if Drago didn’t react at the time, he would definitely understand that I’m not dead yet.”

   Hearing this, the Warring States period is even more understandable.

  Ion said disapprovingly.

“The world government has been a disaster for the sea for more than 800 years, but it is inevitable that there are also a large number of supporters of the world government in the sea. If the new world is built on the basis of overthrowing the world government, then the old government will miss the old government for at least a hundred years. The disaffected will continue to raise rebellions in this name…”

   “So, from an official point of view, it is the best choice for the new government to completely separate from me, the sinner who has destroyed the system of all the world’s member countries.”

   “On the other hand, my prestige is too high, which will seriously affect the establishment and operation of the new government, and is not conducive to the improvement of the system based on the rules of equality and justice…”

   “More importantly, I don’t care about power, and I’m tired of the feeling of being in a high position. In contrast, it is better to accompany the old man to age and fish with you, and live a truly leisurely and own life.”

   Hearing this, Sengoku’s expression softened a lot, but he still asked in a stern tone. “Hmph, you’re about to set off for Wano Country, right?”

“Um.”

  Ion nodded and replied. “We will leave tomorrow. Sora and Nami’s honeymoon trip will be in Wano Country next stop. By the way, I will bring Little Orange with me.”

   “Don’t you think it’s troublesome? You bastard, you’ve been running back and forth on Nine Snake Island, Wano Country, New O’Hara Island in the West Sea, and here all year round.” Sengoku asked.

   “Don’t you think Lieutenant General Crane is troublesome?” Ian asked rhetorically.

   Sengoku sighed, smashed his mouth, and said.

   “Actually, Xiaohe is really troublesome sometimes. Even though she knows everything, she keeps asking this and that, all kinds of boring and repetitive questions. I think she’s just retired and too busy…”

   However, Sengoku and Ion, who had completely retired and lost their guard in the past, did not notice that there were three figures behind them at some point in time.

   “Hehehe~”

   The next moment, as He Zhongjian’s gentle laughter entered the ears of the Warring States, it completely froze the expression of the warring States who were talking eloquently. He turned his head suddenly, and his pupils shrank even more.

   “That…Xiaohe, I think I can explain…” Sengoku said dryly with his twitching mouth.

   However, General Crane didn’t pay any attention to Sengoku’s intentions, he directly threw the basket with the food in his hands towards Sengoku’s arms, and turned and left with a small orange in one hand.

   Upon seeing this, Warring States turned his head to look at Yubo and hesitated for a second, but hurriedly chased after Lieutenant General Crane.

   “Wait, Xiaohe…”

   On the other hand, a figure wearing a white kendo uniform, with both heroic and charming coexistence, sat directly on the original seat of the Warring States Period, turned his head sideways, looked towards Ion, who seemed to be fixated, and asked.

   “Master Yan, are you going home for kendo training tonight?”

   “Gion…”

  Ion looked at Gion next to him and asked. “The kendo training you’re talking about is the training between the sword and the sword, or the kendo training between the sword and the scabbard?”

   “What do you think? Ah~en~big~ren~”

  Gion, smiling like a sly.
