Looking at Shanks who returned to him and the others, Ben Beckman and the others really didn't know what to say.
They can't always say...
Shanks, you don’t want your daughter to be held in the arms of another man...
That's the kind of thing to say...?
After a moment of silence, Ben Beckman raised his hand and bumped Shanks' shoulder.
"That guy really ate the thunder fruit, right?"
"That's right!"
Shanks nodded simply.
"Although I have never seen the Thunder Fruit before, the use of thunder and lightning power and the outrageous speed..."
Shanks looked at Gawain deeply.
"What he ate should be the legendary natural thunder fruit that has not appeared in the past hundreds of years.
Therefore, he has become one of the most unhuntable people in this sea!"
After the words fell, Shanks looked at Ben Beckman with deep meaning, and then he continued.
"No matter what, his territory is almost complete!
In terms of wealth, he has the Seven Waters Capital to make money for him, and he has just obtained all the gold on Sky Island.
In terms of status, he is one of the thirty highest-status people in the world. He is the family patriarch among the Tianlong people. Especially, he is also the patriarch of the Gawain family. As long as he dies before giving birth to a child, the nineteen Tianlong families will be completely destroyed.
Don’t go to the important patriarch of the family!
In terms of reputation, he has cooperated closely with the World Economic News. In the past month, he has occupied almost all pages of the World Economic News.
And in terms of strength..."
Shanks sighed heavily.
“It’s only been four months, it’s been only four months that I haven’t focused on the Grand Line!
But in these four months, he not only awakened the world's best overlord Haki, but also recruited monster-level powerhouses such as Rayleigh, Yixiao, and Gion.
At the same time, he is full of young Shichibukai with great potential. Whether it is Daxiong, Hancock, Shiliu or Jinbei, considering that they are similar to me, or even seven or eight years younger than me, they all have hope of making an impact.
Come to our level!
At the same time, his own strength has not declined. When we read the newspaper, he was not wearing that famous sword on his waist!
He even ate the Thunder Fruit, which is almost unmatched in terms of speed...!"
Shanks took a deep breath.
"Look, it's only been four months, but his territory has expanded to an extent that we cannot easily overturn with our own strength.
I’m really worried about our future!”
"Ha ha!"
After hearing this and looking at Shanks's calm and cautious expression, Beckman laughed indifferently.
"Our future, that is such a happy boy, haha.
We don't need to worry about that little guy, we just need to do our best to ensure the balance between the various forces in the sea.
As for him, although he has matured, he does not have his own system after all. From the current point of view, his existence only strengthens the power of the Shichibukai.
After all, his subordinates are all Shichibukai, so he joined this sea as the controller of the power of Shichibukai.
From this point of view, the navy, pirates, revolutionary army, Shichibukai, and the sea are still the same as before!"
Having said this, Beckman showed an indifferent smile.
"Don't think about what's there and what's not, let's say hello to little Uta!
Long time no see, that kid must miss you very much, Shanks!"
Hearing this, Shanks nodded heavily, then he put his remaining right hand on Griffin and walked towards Gawain and his group in the distance.
Seeing Shanks move, Ben Beckman, Jesus Bu, Lachilu and others also followed his footsteps and came to stand about ten meters in front of Gawain with a smile.
Looking at the smiles on the faces of the red-haired group, Gawain curled his lips slightly. They were indeed the happiest pirate group in the entire sea.
Even in Future Luffy's team, not everyone has a red-haired smile on their face.
While Gawain was thinking, Shanks nodded slightly to Gawain.
"I guess you don't need to introduce yourself, you all know us, just like we know you all.
So, long story short!”
Having said this, Shanks frowned, pointed at Uta who had just changed his position to Gion's arms, and continued.
"I have only one purpose here. Little girls should not have to experience the suffering caused by the sea.
So, hand over my daughter!"
"hehe."
Listening to what the red-haired man said, Gawain reached out and rubbed Uta's head.
"Since you want to keep it short, I'll just say one sentence.
A father who has already abandoned his daughter in his hometown to go to sea alone, who has the right to stop his daughter from going to sea?"
After the words fell, Gawain turned to look at Uta, and saw him speaking softly to Uta.
"Uta, just like I promised you back then, with me behind you, you can yell at Shanks for all your dissatisfaction.
Although my ability is not yet able to suppress this sea, with our current lineup, it is more than enough to suppress his pirate group alone!"
After the words fell, Gawain put his hands into his trouser pockets and turned to wait for Uta's decision.
Seeing Gawain's behavior, Shanks across from him sighed leisurely. Sure enough, the incident of resolute separation made his daughter feel resentful.
But even so, his daughter will always be his daughter, no matter what the situation is.
The hateful person will always be the one to pull Uttar into the ship, damn Gawain!
At the same time, Uta keenly noticed Shanks' eyes.
It was obvious that he was filled with resentment, but his father still remained silent, not even willing to say a word of explanation or concern!
Especially, even now, what my father is looking at is still not him, but Lord Gawain!
For a moment, the little beast in Uta's heart could no longer be restrained. She said to Shanks coldly and slowly.
"You were not like this before!"
As she spoke, Uta tried her best to suppress her tears. She stared at Shanks's eyes. It wasn't until Shanks' eyes shifted from Gawain to Uta that she continued.
"When we traveled from the Grand Line to the East China Sea, you always had a bright smile on your face. Even when we stayed in the small countryside of Windmill Village, you still had a smile on your face that made me feel happy.
At that time, although I would get seasick, even though I couldn't swim, even though I didn't like to travel far, I preferred to be alone.
But as long as I see your smile, as long as I see you drinking with everyone, I will feel relaxed!
But now, seven years have passed!
I can’t see your smile anymore!”
After the words fell, Uta stretched out her hand to Shanks in an unusually straightforward manner, her little paws stopped in front of her, making a stopping movement.
"I once cried to persuade you to stay and begged you to take me with you. At that time, you told me that no matter what happened, I will always be your daughter!
So, now, even if you want me to leave the Black Bird, I will only tell you that no matter what happens, you are my father!
But just as you were not retained by me in the past, I will not be taken away by you today!
If your purpose of coming back is just to let me leave the Blackbird, then I'm sorry, I have already set foot on the ship to go to sea, and my singing has spread to all over the world!
Just like the sound does not silently return to the singer's throat after being emitted.
I will never go back to the past!
Father!"
Having said this, Uta stubbornly pursed her lips, and she completely put back her tears.
Then, she stretched out her hands to Gawain.
"Gawain, carry me on your back, I want to get on your back!"
"Um."
Gawain nodded, then he hugged the little girl and let her sit on his shoulders.
At the same time, Uta glanced at Shanks for the last time. Somehow, she felt that she was showing off...
So she gently twisted Gawain's ears.
"I will not leave my father. Even if he allows me to board the Redfors, I will not give up the Black Bird, the ship that took me to sea for the first time!
So, take me back to the ship, I miss Shirahoshi!"
As she spoke, Uta hugged Gawain's head and covered Gawain's eyes with her hands.
At the same time, Uta looked at Shanks provocatively, her provocative eyes seemed like, even if you don't want me, I can find a better one...
So at this moment, Gawain was opposite.
Under Shanks' motionless face, his teeth were almost broken by his bite.
Uta was still young, so she didn't understand at all that her appearance in her father's eyes meant something completely different from what she thought!
!
Fortunately, Gawain didn't give Shanks any time to hold his breath. After hearing Uta's words, he asked softly.
"Are you sure you don't want to chat for a while? If we say goodbye today, I'm afraid we won't see each other for a long time.
As for the banquet, this time there may not be any banquet with them like with Whitebeard.
After all, they destroyed half of my Golden Town!"
"This is our golden town!
!”
The little Uta emphasized with great seriousness, and then she patted Gawain's military cap.
"Everything I spend is the money you earned, so Golden Town also belongs to us!
It was destroyed, huh, even my daughter’s property could be destroyed easily!
Besides, when he abandoned me, I missed him for seven years. Do you know how much I worried about him, how much I missed him, and how much I hated him!
Now, it’s time for him to worry about and miss me, huh!"
After finishing his words, Uta rubbed Gawain's cheek.
"Come on, come on, I have to teach Bai Xing how to sing, Gawain!"
"good."
Seeing this, Gawain nodded, and then he disappeared instantly with the Uta on his shoulders.
When the two returned to the boat, Gawain put down the tower and turned to Bai Xing, who was lying on the side of the boat, and asked.
"By the way, Shirahoshi, have you contacted your Neptune friend?"
Hearing this, Bai Xing happily extended his hand.
"Of course, every Neptune friend is willing to help and can extinguish the lava in Golden Town at any time!"
"Okay, after that minute, just ask them to put out the fire on time."
Gawain smiled and patted Bai Xing's tail.
Then, Gawain's body gradually shattered into thunder and disappeared on the Black Bird.
As soon as Gawain left, Uta's arrogant face collapsed, and she immediately threw herself into Bai Xing's arms sadly.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu My dad won't even try to coax me. I'm so pitiful, wu wu wu!"
"Yes, yes, father is the most troublesome. When his daughter gets a little older, he won't say anything to his daughter.
Sure enough, it’s better to be mother, right Uta~~~.”
Bai Xing smiled and picked up Uta, then threw it into his chest.
"Stop crying, Sister Uta, I'll take you backstroke~~~."
"Why?!
"
Uta was shocked.
"I am a person with abilities. Do you want to take advantage of Gawain's absence to kill me completely, Bai Xing!
!”
…
Not to mention the playfulness of the two little girls on the Black Bird.
On Gaya Island, shards of thunder fell next to Rayleigh, and while scattered electric currents splashed on the lava, Gawain slowly appeared.
The moment he appeared, Gawain said to everyone.
"Let's go, let's go to the south coast of Gaya Island to chat. As for Golden Town, I want to put out the fire."
As he spoke, Gawain waved his hands to everyone. After hearing this, Rayleigh and his party followed Gawain's footsteps very simply.
Even Akainu was particularly obedient to orders. Although he looked back three times to look at the red-haired group as he walked, he still walked with great simplicity.
And the red-haired group….
Watching Gawain and his party walking away, they looked at me and I looked at you.
Then, after a brief silence, all of them burst into extremely violent laughter!
"Ah hahahaha, Shanks, you are disliked by Uta, haha!"
"It seems that Uta has found a good ship. We can finally rest assured!"
"Yes, although we are also important people, our status can only bring her danger, but now she has been protected!"
"But Shanks is so bad. He is actually disliked by his own daughter. If it were my son, even if I had been away for countless years, he would still admire me as his father just like he did back then!"
The last one to speak was Jesus Bu. At this time, Jesus Bu was extremely proud.
After hearing his words, even Shanks relaxed a little.
Shanks exhaled softly, then patted Jesus Bu on the shoulder.
"Yes, boys and girls are indeed different. When your son grows up to be a real man, he will definitely understand what you said back then.
But how is your son doing lately?"
"Hey, I have never been back home, but Xiluobu has always been a peaceful village, and the East China Sea is the safest sea.
So, they should be living well...
Maybe when I see Usopp again, he will have become a great man, haha!"
Amidst the laughter, Jesus patted Shanks' shoulder narrowly.
"No matter what, my son will never scold me like your daughter scolded you.
This time I win, Shanks!"
"It's just this once~."
Shanks responded with a gentle smile, after experiencing endless killings, he finally became the Pirate Emperor.
Apart from some of his old friends, the only people who could still make him smile were his companions.
But Shanks had just laughed for a while, and in the sea around them, countless sea kings suddenly showed their heads.uuReading www.uukanshu.com
Although this is not a windless zone, nor is it a nest of sea kings.
But at this time, among these outcropping Neptune species, there are also many big guys with a height of two to three thousand meters!
"Why?"
"what's the situation!"
"Who are these Neptunes?!
"
"Is this the ability of Poseidon in Gawain's group?!
"
Seeing the sudden appearance of Neptunes around them, the red-haired group was astonished.
If it wasn't for fear, how could they be afraid of the Neptunes!
Just because Neptune has a special meaning among red-haired people!
His companions were all surprised and looked at Shanks.
Faced with the looks from his companions, Shanks rolled his eyes.
"Don't think too much, I guess this is the method of putting out fires that Gawain mentioned, right?
How convenient is it to use a giant Neptune-type water spray to extinguish the lava created by Akainu after his awakening..."
While speaking, Shanks waved his hands to everyone.
"Although none of us have ever eaten the fruit, it would be troublesome if our clothes got wet from the sea water.
So, we have to speed up."
"We really need to speed up!
!”
At this moment, Lachilu shouted while holding the pig leg.
"Quick, speed up, we have to protect Shanks, he only has one arm left!
Don't let the captain's remaining hand be eaten by the sea kings!
!
And Shanks no longer has a new straw hat to give away, hahahaha!
!”
Accompanied by loud laughter, the red-haired group burst out at astonishing speed and caught up with Gawain and his group in an instant.
