The Paper Fruit Among the Pirates

  Chapter 39 Memories of the Past, the Legend Begins

  "Do you think my dream is very casual?"

  Roman spread out his hands and looked at the others on the deck.

   "But there is no way, dreams, etc., generally have a great relationship with one's own past."

   "Or idols, friends, parents, or benefactors... Whether it is power, knowledge, or dreams, people are inherited from generation to generation."

  "You all have precious memories, but my past..."

   "Roman, the past is already—"

  The tragedy of this world...It can only be said that it is everywhere. Nami stepped forward, wondering how to comfort Roman, but Roman had already raised her hand to stop her.

   "You misunderstood, Nami."

   "My past, I should say: very happy."

  ?

  Then how deep did you put a hammer? !

   Facing a few of his companions who put the expression "You are making me play" on their faces, Roman shrugged.

  "What do you say about my past,"

  "Ordinary family, ordinary life, ordinary daily..."

  "Whatever you want to eat every day, make a phone call...and someone will bring it to your door. (refers to takeaway

   "Whatever you want to see every day, you move your finger to show up in front of you, whether it is a novel or an anime... Opera. (referring to a mobile phone

  "If you want to exercise when you are too idle, you can also follow the coach...instructor to exercise, boxing, sports, shooting...(referring to cloud fitness

  Hey, hey, you are not "normal" at all, okay! ?

  Sauron, Nami, Sanji, and Usopp are all complaints. In this chaotic world, there are only nobles... No, the royal family doesn't necessarily receive this kind of treatment, right?

  "Every day is a peaceful and ordinary life. The most serious injury I have suffered from childhood is accidentally cutting my finger..."

  "As for fighting, death, etc., you can only see it on TV and newspapers..."

  ···········

  Looking at Roman who was ‘so boring’ on his face, everyone couldn’t help but beat him!

  Is this the legendary ‘being in blessing but not knowing blessing’?

  This kind of background is already—

   "Anyway, my past is like this."

   "Although there have been many messy daydreams, they are just dreams."

  "After that, I somehow went to sea as a pirate..."

  ········

   "Although I read all kinds of books because I had nothing to do before, as well as the fighting swordsmanship I used to learn to play. I barely got mixed up in the pirate business..."

  Big brother, your strength of tens of millions of bounty is just mixed?

  So what are we, trainee sailors!

  Except for the nerve-racking Luffy, no one else can spit.

   "Because there is no unforgettable regret, so I don't have any dreams."

  Roman made a summary for his ‘crossing’.

   "Fighting the four emperors and stepping on the three generals. Although I have occasionally thought about it, but they and I have no grudges, and no motivation.-the heat for a few minutes at most, just forget it."

  ········

  Nami, Sauron, Usopp, and Sanji exchanged glances.

understood! This Roman is just a royal child who is so idle.

   "Anyway, I actually envy you."

  Roman finally came to the point, “You have a lifelong goal of fighting for it, and you are unwavering, which makes me really envious! In comparison, I can be regarded as a salted fish drifting with the flow at best.”

   "But today is different,"

  Roman opened his arms as if embracing the world.

   "I want to see the moment when your dream comes true.-Maybe it's laughter, maybe crying, maybe just melancholy, maybe even emptiness. But:"

   "I really want to see it with my own eyes!"

  Well, if you insist, this is Roman’s ‘dream’.

   "Hee hee~~~"

   "Roman, you said something you didn't understand for a long time."

  Luffy pressed the straw hat and looked up at Roman with a hearty smile.

   "I wanted to see "OnePiece" too."

   "It's decided, I will fulfill your dream!"

  ········

   "Well, Luffy, you understand it that way."

  Roman shrugged and told the previous things, it seemed that everyone had become a lot easier. —Always holding on to the secrets of the past and interacting with people, it is a bit nonsense to think. but:

   "Hmm, I have learned a lot from books, such as revolutionaries, such as five old stars, such as a hundred years of blankness, such as... even if it is:"

   "OnePiece and Blue Ocean, I also—"

  The character "Ye" was deliberately prolonged by Roman, and when Luffy and Sanji had the expression of "please see the drama", Roman's face was solemn.

"I do not know either."

  ? ? ?

   "Beat you, believe it or not, we beat you!"

   "Hahaha, I scared you. I am not an encyclopedia~~~"

  ———

  In the cabin, a group of people sat together, and the chart of the Bucky Pirates was spread out on the table.

   "The entrance to the'Great Route' is a mountain."

  "Mountain?" X4

  "Although I don’t believe it, but if the position on the chart is correct, the entrance is indeed the upside-down mountain at the front of the lighthouse..."

   "Are you going to hit the mountain?"

   Facing the dazed and uncertain Nami, Roman knocked on the table.

  "Not to hit the mountain, but to prepare to'climb'."

  ? ? ?

  "The red soil continent ahead, where the four seas of east, west, north and south meet through the canal..."

  "The powerful ocean currents of the four seas push the water up to the top of the mountain, and then merge into a stream, which is the starting point of the great route."

  Roman began to use ‘book knowledge’ to popularize science to several people.

  "The whole great route circles the world for a week, that is to say..."

   "Wow, look, there is calm and calm over there~~"

  Usopp lay on the window and looked not far away.

  "Then why do we have to take this weird route?" Sauron asked a question, "We went directly to the south..."

  "The answer lies in the calm sea."

   "There is a windless zone, and the great route is sandwiched between two sea areas called the ‘windless zone’.”

  "The so-called windless zone, as the name implies, means no wind. Sailboats are only there and it is difficult to move, but more importantly..."

  Roman pointed to the side where Usopp was lying on the window looking out. It was clear that the sea area they were in was raining heavily, but the side not far away was indeed calm and sunny.

   Outside, the paper puppet ‘White Knight’ in a raincoat was driving the boat, and the reason why the Golden Merley deviated and came here was of course Roman deliberately.

   "No matter how dangerous and powerful I say the great route is... you don’t have a specific concept. So,"

  Boom boom boom!

  With the sound like thunder, the entire Golden Merley jolts up and down! Like a poor leaf in the stormy sea, when finally stabilized, Luffy, Sauron, Usopp, and Sanji all rushed outside in the cabin. Then:

   "What the **** is this?!" X4

  Four...No, three dumbfounded faces.

  Because poor Usopp had already fainted with foaming at the mouth.

  In the calm waters next to the Golden Meri, a group of... hundreds of meters or thousands of meters? The giant sea beasts surfaced! Their bodies just above the surface of the water are like rolling hills!

   The Golden Meri, carrying Roman Luffy and others, looks like an ant beside a giant in front of these sea beasts. Too small to even attract their attention.

  "A special product of no wind belt: giant sea king class."

  In the stunned trio, Nami, who was holding the hatch and burst into tears, was behind Usopp, who had fainted, and Roman walked out slowly.

   "Understand, this is why everyone obediently takes the great route."

   "Roman—"

   "Turn around, turn around!"

  "Stop talking about this..."

  "Brother···Big brother····"

  Rao is the fearless trio who was so scared that their souls split apart! In front of this behemoth of hundreds of kilometers, whether it is fists or swords, it is not worthy to scrape the opponent! And these behemoths only need one to turn over...

  Buried on the bottom of the sea is the only end.

   Needless to say, Roman has already directed the "White Knight" to drive the Golden Meri to draw an arc. "Visit" on the edge of the windless zone is just to show a few of the horrors of the great route, but it is not a real death.

  —But without Roman’s, it’s hard to tell if Luffy and the others will die and run into the giant sea king’s lair...

   "Okay, let's set off to Upside Down Mountain."

  Great route, here we are!
