One Piece: Adopting Akainu at the beginning, adopted son Barrett

Chapter 113 Disappointment
"Ahahaha, hello, kids! My name is Luo... er, Luo Li, ah yes, Luo Li. Do you know where the island owner Ross is?"

The Ol Jackson, the ship of the Roger Pirates, did not dock at a regular port, but instead stopped on the undeveloped left side of Cloud Island.

Roger jumped onto the island cloud like a child and asked Barrett and the other man who had been looking at their big ship from the beginning.

He just thought that the two people happened to pass by, because there were many tourists around stopping to look at them, and the two people just happened to be closest to each other.

"Stupid Roger..."

On the boat, Rayleigh had to hold his forehead when he saw Roger eagerly jumping off the boat. Then he covered his face again after listening to his lame self-introduction.

You can tell it's a fake name as soon as you hear something like this, right?

Barrett did not reply, but looked at Roger vigilantly. In his perception, Roger's body was terribly strong. It was the same feeling he had when he faced a super giant sea king for the first time.

Only despair is irresistible.

Dangerous! But not hostile.

"Let me see……"

Mona didn't say anything either, but pulled out a stack of newspapers from the small backpack on Barrett's back and began to rummage through it on the spot.

It was at this time that the members of Roger's pirate group walked down from the ship one after another, and everyone was surprised by the unique touch under their feet.

Only Rayleigh and Jabba looked at the 13-year-old Barrett with amazement in their eyes.

This young man is much stronger than they were at the same age! The hidden aura on his body is extraordinary, like a lonely iron tower.

"Wuhu, Buggy, look at me, I'm flying in the air~~"

Shanks jumped three feet high on the soft island cloud, and with a strong leap he jumped into the air more than ten meters high, having a lot of fun.

Buggy ignored Shanks with a cool look on his face, stood next to Vice Captain Rayleigh and looked at Barrett and the other man carefully.

"Oh! Found it! You are the Roger Pirates!"

Mona found the wanted poster of Roger and others from a newspaper with all the pirates marked on it, and then she exclaimed, then she looked at them and said:

"My father knew you would come here. As long as you don't cause trouble and don't reveal your identity, you can wander around freely, but you can't go to the central area.

That's about it, come on Barrett, let's go back."

Mona didn't seem surprised at all by the arrival of Roger and others. She didn't like staying at home, so she gave him some instructions after Ross left.

Ever since Whitebeard's last secret visit, Ross knew that something similar might happen again.

For example, the famous sea street skater Redfield, Roger Pirates and Golden Lion.

The first two are fine.

If Redfield were to come, his target would definitely be me, the owner of Cloud Island. Once he saw that I was not there, he would naturally leave without causing any waves.

Among Ross's instructions to Mona and the butler Tokos before leaving, only the latter two should be noted.

If Roger's pirate group comes, just let them wander around. As long as they don't cause trouble, ignore them. If they do cause trouble, just endure it and notify me later. He will naturally call people over to fight them together with his fists.

If it is a golden lion, then just run away without worrying about it. Afterwards he will ask others to kill the golden loser together.

As long as the two of them dare to come, he is confident that with the permission of the World Government, he can call in at least two admirals from the navy!
With Barrett guarding at home, Rose doesn't have to worry too much about the safety of his family. Barrett is very strong now.

"Ah, I was recognized right away."

Roger scratched the back of his head in embarrassment. He didn't expect that he could recognize them just by glancing at the newspaper. He had clearly given a fake name.

However, Roger was also very happy in his heart. He did not expect that the name of their pirate group would spread so widely.

I think they have been traveling around the world over the years, but many people find it difficult to recognize them even when looking at the wanted posters.

The Great Route and the Four Seas, even with the distribution of newspapers today, the cognitive barrier between them is still very huge.

On the other side, Rayleigh's heart sank.

Roger may not have realized what these words meant, but as the think tank of Roger's pirate group, he had already heard the subtext of the words.

It may be difficult to meet the island master Ross.

"Is it hard to recognize? Never mind..."

Mona wanted to say something, but she felt that it was not worth wasting time on a group of pirates, so she shook her head and gave up.

Barrett didn't say a word. He turned around and left, but his body's vigilance did not decrease at all. His crude observation Haki was still activated, and the ghost energy in his body was ready to explode at any time.

As a natural possessor of ghost energy, he made rapid progress in the field of two-color domineering after awakening, especially the armament color that can cover the whole body, but his observation color is only at the level of an ordinary genius.

"Hey, hey, wait a minute, little girl. You said your dad is Ross, right? Can you take us to see him? We have something we want to ask him. Please!"

Looking at the two people who left directly, Roger was stunned for a long time before he suddenly reacted. Then he immediately rushed to the two people, blocked their way and begged, his tone sincere and earnest.

Mona frowned.

Sure enough, pirates are pirates, they don't understand reason at all, and she doesn't seem to want to talk more. But after thinking about it, she is ready to speak.

Because when Ross had instructed her, he told her that if there were any questions or requests after the Roger Pirates arrived, she could make the decision. If she felt she couldn't make the decision, she could go to Tokos.

What's more, looking at Roger's expression, he won't give up unless he is given an explanation.

That was too troublesome. If she wasn't very clear that she couldn't win by force, she wouldn't have bothered to explain.

They are just pirates, I don’t bother to talk about it, they don’t deserve to hear it!

Mona said:
"My father is indeed Ross, but he is now an instructor at the Navy Headquarters. If you want to find him, you have to wait at least two years. Can you let us go?

By the way, park the boat at the alley entrance. There is no need to worry about us seizing it. Cloud Island welcomes everyone to visit, including pirates. As long as you don’t cause trouble or get exposed, there will be no problem. "

After she finished speaking, without caring whether Roger heard it or not, she patted Barrett's arm gently and signaled him to take a detour.

This time Roger did not stop them, but watched the two people walk away. The onlookers seemed to recognize Roger and dispersed.

Yundao has a news reporting business, and the information penetration rate here is top-notch even in the rest of the world. One can recognize Roger and others with just a quick recollection.

At this moment, after hearing the news that Ross had gone to the Navy Headquarters and would not be back for at least two years, Roger let his hands hang naturally, bent over, and looked very lost.

Of course he didn't believe that it would take the other party two years to come back. The Natural Yunyun Fruit destined him to have world-class mobility, allowing him to move at high speed in the sky without any obstruction, just like the Golden Lion.

Ross's round trip might take only five or six days at most.

But, what reason did they have to call Ross back from so far away?
No, not to mention that they were a group of pirates. For the first time, Roger felt the extremely troublesome problem of his identity. It was a problem that he could not solve even with his great strength.

"Don't despair, Roger. There should still be a way. Let's stay here for two weeks and see. I will try my best to come up with a solution."

Rayleigh walked over to Roger and comforted him, patted him on the shoulder and took the task upon himself.

His crew members also gathered around to cheer him up:

"Captain, it doesn't matter if we can't see Ross. At most, we can sail for another ten years and we will definitely find the legendary final island!"

"Yes, do we rely on others' guidance for all our adventures? Captain, we believe in you!"

"The deputy captain is right. Let's spend two weeks on Cloud Island first. We are waiting for you to hold a banquet together! Let's celebrate and witness such a unique island!"

"Trust the deputy captain. He is our brain trust and the smartest pirate in the world! If even he can't do anything, then why should we add to our troubles? We might as well enjoy the banquet and then set sail!"

The crew's comfort helped Roger to cheer up.

He really agreed with what the crew members said, but his body might not be able to last for more than ten years, or even... five years.

Now when he is chased by Garp, he tries to avoid fighting as much as possible, because every time he fights with all his strength it will accelerate the damage to his body and the disease will quickly drag down his body.

He really wanted to fulfill his dream before he died.

so………

"I'll leave it to you, Rayleigh, please!"

"Everyone, let's have a party to celebrate our arrival at yet another magical island!"

Roger solemnly put his arm around Rayleigh's shoulders and whispered an entrustment, then laughed loudly and invited the crew to a party.

In the world of pirates, there is no more efficient way to wash away temporary unhappiness than a banquet.

Even though they are enemies, they can still brag and chat with each other arm in arm before and after the banquet.

There is no eternal hatred on the sea.

...............

"Hello, daddy?"

"What's wrong, little Mona? Are you having any problems?"

"Uh-huh!"

Sitting on the sofa, Mona picked up the Den Den Mushi and nodded. Although she often called her father "Dad" outside, she would call him "Dad" or "Dad" more often in front of him.

Being cute never goes out of style.

Not long after leaving, Mona went home with Barrett to call Den Den Mushi. She was worried about Roger and his pirate life, so it was better to leave such matters to adults.

Not long after, Ross, who was in a naval branch, answered the call. He always carried a special portable Den Den Mushi with him.

"It's like this. When Barrett and I were hanging out today, Barrett felt a very strong aura approaching. It was the Roger Pirates that you mentioned before you left, Dad!"

"Oh? What did they say?"

"They came to Cloud Island to look for you. I told them you were not there, and then I went home and called you."
