Detective: I'm Sato Miwako's Informant

Shiraishi Xiu carried two jugs of wine back and handed them to Roger.

Thank you.

Roger took the wine, walked to the shore of the cabin, and began to drink while looking at the sea.

"If it's inconvenient for you, I can remove your handcuffs."

Seeing that Roger seemed a little uncomfortable drinking, Shiraishi Osamu said to him.

“No need. This is how a prisoner should look. If the handcuffs are removed, what kind of prisoner am I?” Roger said with a smile.

Shiraishi Osamu responded but didn't say anything more.

Then, as if he had just thought of something, Roger said to Shiraishi Osamu, "Shiraishi Osamu, what do you think true freedom is?"

"Freedom? Well, let me try to answer that."

Shiraishi Osamu didn't expect Roger to ask him this question. After thinking for a moment, Shiraishi Osamu replied, "The freedom I envision is when everyone has food to eat, everyone has a job they can do, and no one has to worry about their safety. In other words, it's when people live and work in peace and contentment. That's the freedom I see."

“What if you’re bound by a lot of rules?” Roger asked.

"It depends on what kind of rules (Zhao De) have, and whether these rules are reasonable. I think the current legal rules are still acceptable. From the perspective of the navy, as long as a person is strong, he can go from an unknown soldier to the backbone of the navy."

“As for the other rules, I don’t know which aspect you’re referring to. Aren’t you worried about your son at all?” Shiraishi Xiu said.

"Worried about him? Hahaha! That kid will have his own destiny!"

Chapter 0185: Roger's Son

Meanwhile, after receiving a secret mission, Garp arrived at the designated location to find Roger's son.

Garp learned that Ace's mother had a difficult pregnancy, carrying Ace for a full twenty months.

Ace was born on Baterilla Island one year and three months after Roger's death.

However, shortly after giving birth to Ace, Portgas D. Rouge died from exhaustion.

Only Ace, an infant, and Garp, who had just arrived, remained.

Karp didn't know what to do either.

He and Roger had fought for many years and were considered old rivals.

But at this moment, facing the son of a pirate, he simply couldn't bring himself to kill him.

It's just a baby.

Facing such a soft little baby, Kap felt his heart tremble.

He couldn't bring himself to do it, nor could he bring it back to the Navy.

Once brought back to the Navy, Garp worried that Fleet Admiral Steelbone Kong would directly harm the newborn baby.

Furthermore, Portgas D. Rouge expressed her wish to take care of Ace before she died.

Garp sighed. Fortunately, he was the only one who knew that Ace was Roger's orphan.

He went to Baterilla Island alone to find Ace, without any other Marines with him.

Although Roger had fought Garp many times before his death, during their last meeting, Roger directly told Garp that he had a child.

They directly told Garp the location of the child's mother, hoping that Garp could take care of them in the future.

"Ugh, what a troublesome fellow."

The thought that Roger, a pirate, would make a marine like Garp feel a headache coming on.

On the other hand, Garp was very worried that Sky Admiral Steelbone would find out about this.

Although no one has discovered it yet, Marshal Steelbone specifically instructed him to search for Roger's orphans.

Once Garp discovered that a baby had suddenly appeared next to him... he felt his head was about to explode.

"Forget it, I heard that Roger used to have a good relationship with Shiraishi Osamu. Shiraishi Osamu is no longer in the Navy anyway, so let him take care of this little guy."

(badj)

With a sigh, Garp decided to hand Ace over to Shiraishi Osamu directly. At this point, Shiraishi Osamu's defection from the Navy would actually make him more suitable to raise Ace.

Thinking of Ace in his hands, then of Shiraishi Osamu who has now defected from the Navy, and then of his troublesome son.

Garp sighed repeatedly.

Why is life so difficult for someone like me, a naval hero?

Garp soon learned that Shiraishi Shu was on Fishman Island.

Sakazuki and Borsalino went to Fishman Island to try to find Shiraishi Shu, but failed. They were knocked unconscious by Shiraishi Shu and sent to the Sabaody Archipelago.

This incident enraged Fleet Admiral Kong, who was surprised that he had already agreed to back down and was even willing to plead with the World Government on behalf of the entire Navy for Shiraishi Osamu.

In order to avoid downplaying his crime of killing a Celestial Dragon, Shiraishi Osamu showed no gratitude whatsoever.

He had specifically consulted with the Five Elders, the supreme rulers of the World Government, about this.

As a result, Shiraishi Osamu had no intention of returning.

This caused Steel Bone to fly into a rage in his office, which even startled Garp.

Despite his fury, Kong still hadn't figured out how to deal with Shiraishi Xiu in the future.

For the time being, Shiraishi Shu doesn't seem to have become a pirate or built his own force.

Chapter 0186: Nobody Dares to Take It

Instead, they stayed on Fishman Island, not knowing what to do.

And with a bounty of up to 3 billion Berries on Shiraishi Xiu's head, no one would dare to take it.

That's a ruthless man who has defeated many top-tier pirates, including Shiki the Golden Lion, Waldo the World Destroyer, and Hale the Silver Axe.

Even in the entire world, Kong couldn't find anyone who could reliably take down Shiraishi.

There is no one in the Navy who can rival Shiraishi Osamu. Before that, Shiraishi Osamu was the youngest admiral in the history of the Navy.

He was even called the strongest admiral in the history of the navy.

After all, even other naval admirals, like Sengoku, did not do something as astonishing as capturing Shiki the Golden Lion single-handedly.

Not to mention the great pirates like Silver Axe Hail, Wang Zhi, and Red Earl.

Each of them is absolutely no less powerful than any of the other admirals.

They are so powerful and have a deep understanding of the Navy.

Kong really didn't know how to deal with Shiraishi Xiu.

This guy was even more difficult for him to deal with than Whitebeard and other great pirates on the Grand Line.

Even with the Celestial Dragons and the World Government constantly putting pressure on him, Kong could only turn a deaf ear and rage alone in his office.

Admiral Sengoku was trying to persuade them when Garp returned.

Having shown that he had not found Roger's orphan, Kong had no choice but to give up and send others to continue the extensive search.

Meanwhile, Garp casually found a time and, with Ace in tow, secretly went to Fishman Island to look for Shiraishi Shu.

Inside Fishman Island.

Since agreeing to become the guardian deity of Fishman Island for Neptune and Queen Otohime.

Shiraishi Osamu temporarily abandoned the idea of ​​going to other places and instead settled down here for the time being.

Neptune generously provided Shiraishi Xiu with a luxurious palace, which was built overnight by fishmen and mermaids.

The interior was extremely luxurious, and servants waited outside to serve Bai Shixiu.

This treatment is much better than when I was in the navy.

In addition, Neptune provided Shiraishi with 50 million Berries for his use.

Neptune and Queen Otohime were also very satisfied.

This amount of money may seem like a lot, but it's actually nothing to the wealthy Dragon Palace.

Being able to hire Shiraishi Osamu, a former Marine Admiral and one of the world's top fighters, to protect Fishman Island is worth any amount of money.

Garp, wearing his signature Navy coat as a Vice Admiral, went straight to Osamu Shiraishi.

0. Requesting flowers.......

Shiraishi Shu did not choose to meet Garp near his residence.

Calm zone.

On either side of the Grand Line are two completely windless seas, lacking the wind power necessary for sailing ships to navigate, making it impossible for ordinary vessels to travel together.

Beneath the calm seas lie many enormous sea king creatures, the largest of which is even larger than a small island.

Therefore, the Calm Belt is known as the most terrifying sea area, as it is rarely visited by people.

But at this moment, on a small island in the doldrums, the island looked very desolate and uninhabited.

There were hardly any trees, only a few scattered blades of grass dotting the landscape.

"As expected, the Navy did send Garp after all."

Shiraishi Osamu thought to himself that if Kong were to select someone from the Navy to hunt him down, the Navy hero Garp would be the obvious first choice.

He experienced the most dangerous moment for the Navy, and even joined forces with Pirate King Roger to destroy the Rocks Pirates and save the Navy and the World Government from imminent danger.

Later, during Garp's pursuit of Shiki, Whitebeard, and even Roger, he spoke...

Chapter 0187: Meeting Again

Garp always led from the front, and Roger was even pushed to the brink of death by Garp several times, almost getting captured.

Although he was only a vice admiral, Garp was undoubtedly one of the most reliable pillars of the navy.

Their strength is consistently among the top tier in the world.

Perhaps he's not the best in the world yet; he couldn't compare to Rocks before, and he'll fall short of Whitebeard at his peak in the future.

However, the gap between Garp and "713" is not that big, and their peak periods are much longer.

Even decades later, after Whitebeard went through his peak and decline, his contemporaries began to age and their strength decreased.

Countless newcomers take the stage: the Four Emperors, the Worst Generation, the Pirate Supernovas...
