Pirates Devouring Fruit

First of all, Abraham Gaius, the king of a country, is Dawn’s cheap dad…

Then there was Abraham Rovna, the princess of the Kingdom of Ishtar—the mother of this body of Dawn.

According to Adolf, the ancestral stele that Dawn will need to verify later is not actually the stele of the ancestors of Abraham's family, but a stele made by domestic scientists using the blood of Abraham's family.

It's just engraved with the genealogy of Abraham's family, so it's called the ancestral monument. It was made by Dawn's father's grandfather. When it was first made, it was simply because of the solidity of the material.

Adolf said that the status of the Abraham family was not stable in Dawn's great-grandfather's generation, so for the sake of reputation, Dawn's great-grandfather made the ancestral monument.

The ancestral monument was also equipped with the function of dripping blood to verify bloodline. The color of the ancestral monument could only be changed after Abraham's family dripped blood, thus ensuring the stable status of Abraham's clan.

There are many explanations to the outside world, but generally speaking, Dawn feels that it is to consolidate his position and prevent outsiders from usurping the throne. On the other hand, it is also to demonstrate his own technological strength.

But Dawn only half believed it. Maybe one day he found out that he was cheated, and he wanted to test if the baby was his own in a legitimate way.

After that, there is the question of why Dawn ended up in exile. After his great-grandfather consolidated his position, his father, who wanted to usurp the throne, finally weakened the family to the point of imminent destruction.

What followed was a desperate plot. The unlucky child was kidnapped and his life or death has been unknown since then.

Originally, the family wanted to hold Dawn hostage in exchange for his life, but because they were afraid that he would be rescued, they sent someone to take him to another island by boat.

And then no and then...

The captured Dawn disappeared on the island, and the betraying family was wiped out without leaving any trace.

As for how Dawn ended up on the Grand Line and became a homeless child?

Sorry, Dawn doesn’t know either╮(￣▽￣)╭

There's nothing we can do about it. Who made him a Westerner?

Although the memory was not very clear, Dawn could roughly guess it.

I guess when he was being taken out, he encountered a storm or pirates or something.

Then the ship headed for the Grand Line, and ended up being shipwrecked again in the Grand Line or being entrusted by the captain to someone to raise, and eventually becoming a homeless child for various reasons.

Then there was Dawn, who became a homeless child. His memories after that were very clear, but Dawn never imagined that this guy was a prince.

"What is this? A blessing from God? Or the 'farming style?'" Dawn was a little confused about what was unfolding.

Of course, Dawn was confused but Adolf was not, so he immediately asked Sora and others to take him to find the commander of the warship, Aokiji, to explain the situation.

Afterwards, Adolf became even more enthusiastic when he learned that Aokiji and another Yukimura who did not board the ship had specially rescued Dawn who was stranded in Stormark Baron.

It wasn't until Aokiji's arrival that Dwayne came back to his senses. Looking at Aokiji who looked sleepy, Dwayne was a little at a loss for a moment.

"Ah, I didn't expect that you have such an identity. The kid that Yuchimura has always been keeping an eye on turns out to be the prince of the North Sea." Aokiji said this with a lazily yawn and a look of indifference.

"Mr. Aokiji, don't you care?" Dawn was a little confused by Aokiji's attitude.

After all, I suddenly became the heir to a country, so is there any conflict with my becoming a navy officer?

Dawn felt that he had some idea of ​​the potential he had shown, as evidenced by the fact that the instructors in the training camp would occasionally help him slack off.

"Don't worry. The Ishtar Kingdom is a major grain-producing country. Such a country supplies more than just food to neighboring countries. Who do you think is the biggest partner?" Aokiji waved his hand with an indifferent look on his face.

"Uh..." After hearing Aokiji say this, Dawn would be a fool if he didn't know.

Chapter 38 Road [Collection Request]

After hearing what Aokiji said, Dawn immediately understood.

After all, the Ishtar Kingdom is a major grain-producing country, and the navy is a military force that does not engage in production. How many troops are stationed at the navy headquarters? How much food is consumed every day?

Logically speaking, the armed forces must be backed by a country or organization that is responsible for food issues. For example, a country will have its own food to feed the army to protect its own country.

But it is impossible for the World Government to directly supply food to the navy.

After all, the people living on the Red Earth Continent are the Celestial Dragons. It would be foolish to expect those pigs to allow the navy to grow crops on their land.

Therefore, it would probably be easier if the World Government just paid the military funds and let the navy solve this problem on its own.

In this case, where there is demand there must be a market, and the Kingdom of Ishtar should be one of the countries that supplies food to the navy.

Needless to say, the naval branch in the North Sea will definitely rely on the Ishtar Kingdom as its main source of food supply due to its convenient geographical location.

Although the lifeline of food will not be completely handed over to the Ishtar Kingdom, it is at least a source of high-quality food.

This is especially true for the naval headquarters. Such a violent group will not keep food supplies in one place, and the navy in the New World has more choices.

But it is undeniable that even so, the Kingdom of Ishtar, as a country with developed agriculture and animal husbandry, is one of the largest food suppliers in the Four Seas and the New World.

"Then what about my identity as a navy?" Dawn was still a little confused. This only explained the relationship between the Ishtar Kingdom and the navy, and could not resolve the relationship between individuals.

"Ah~~~ha~~The supreme commander of the naval branch of the Ishtar Kingdom is also the king. Abraham's family has always had the habit of joining the army, so there is no conflict in this regard."

Aokiji yawned and said, "Although the branch doesn't have many people, because most of the people have joined the country's army to defend the country against the invasion of pirates."

After saying that, Aokiji yawned and waved his hand and went back to his room. Adolf, who was standing by, looked at Dawn who looked puzzled and explained:

“Your Highness, this is a tradition of the Abraham family. I heard that this tradition was established in order to temper the character of the heir and to give him a certain ability to protect himself.

"Then, when it came to your great-grandfather's generation, because of the close relationship with the navy, the place where he served changed from his own army to the navy. And because of the close cooperation between the two, Your Majesty became the supreme commander of our navy."

"Because the navy cannot participate in direct wars between countries, the navy of the Kingdom of Ishtar has only stationed a symbolic branch under the command of His Majesty."

What the hell is this? It's like the "one country, two systems" policy that is tailored to local conditions.

After listening to Butler Adolf's explanation, Dawn couldn't help but look strange, because this system always felt a little familiar.

.......

Well, Dawn was simply too exhausted to complain about the sudden twist. If this was a novel, the author probably didn't even know what kind of plot he wanted to write, right?

You just change the routine so casually, you bastard! You change the background just because you don't agree with me?

But the foreshadowing was already buried in the first chapter, what can I do?

But on second thought, being a prince is not bad, and it seems that he has a good relationship with the navy.

Although he was a little confused by the dramatic development for a moment, Dawn still felt it was good.

"By the way, Adolf, doesn't it mean... uh... my father... doesn't want any more children?" Dawn asked awkwardly.

"Your Highness, ever since you disappeared, His Majesty and his wife have been missing you very much. They have been depressed and have not had any children since then."

Well, it seems that the parents of this body are good people... Ugh, that's not right. Is it a kind king?

It seems that it is not bad to have an extra identity for no reason? He is not a bad king, and he has a good relationship with the navy, so it is acceptable...

"Your Highness Dawn, I wonder when we can go to the North Sea? I can't wait to bring this news to His Majesty the King and Princess Rovna." Adolf said with a bright smile on his face.

"Wait a minute. The main purpose of this trip is not for training. We are just the vanguard. Let's talk about it after this matter is dealt with. Without the help of warships, we can't cross the four seas."

Dawn waved his hand. For Dawn, the opportunity to witness the Age of Discovery was something he could not refuse.

After all, this is the beginning of a new era!

And it is also the symbol and label of these heroes?

ummm….

That's true, Luffy and the people in the Worst Era are all relatively young, some of them were not even born when Roger was executed.

And there are few heroes in their prime years that we meet on the sea who have not experienced Roger's execution.

The heroes who experienced Roger's execution seemed to have a transformation in their mentality, and they all achieved great success in the future.

For example, in addition to Hawkeye, Crocodile, Moria, Doflamingo and others.

Although most of them are Luffy's opponents except Hawkeye, their achievements are indeed not low, right? After all, they are a third-party force besides the navy and pirates.

As someone who is slower in pace and although not as old as these people, he is still of the same generation as them, Dawn definitely hopes to witness the beginning of an era with his own eyes.

Navy? Pirates?

To be honest, the navy is just a platform for Dawn to develop himself. There is no black and white in this world. Those are just in the hands of people who hold the "truth".

And "truth" is power.

In other words, only with power can one convey one's "truth".

For those who have no power and still want to realize their ideals, it is nothing but pale and laughable words.

Isn't that the case with Doflamingo and King Riku?

Evil used its power to manipulate the kind king and ascended the throne of the Good King. If it weren't for Luffy, this country would probably have always been manipulated by Doflamingo.

Faced with this chaotic world, the weak child Dawn chooses to hide and rely on the navy as a big umbrella to provide himself with shelter from the wind and rain.

At the same time, Dawn will also provide labor for the Navy's efforts, that is, fighting pirates.

Of course, the reason why I chose the navy was first because it leans towards the "justice and law" camp, which coincides with Dawn's camp leaning.

As for being an adventurer pirate?

Just look at how many funny "kindly chaotic" enemies Luffy has and you will know that if he didn't have a background and was not the protagonist, he would have been killed long ago.

As for joining a group of pirates or the mafia to seek development, that is simply ridiculous.

Whether it is the pirate camp or the mafia, the threshold requirements are too high, and they live a high-risk life all day long, which is not conducive to the development of Dawn who is still a child.

After all, if you want to join the Four Emperors, you have to have something to show for it, right? There are so many people who want to join the Four Emperors, who are you?

Without strength, you might die on the way before you even reach your territory.

So since you belonged to the good and lawful camp in your previous life and you don't particularly want to be a pirate, why do you choose to start in hell?

Isn't this just asking for trouble?

Chapter 39 The Benefits of Identity

To put it another way, even if Dawn wanted to go out to sea as a pirate, it was unrealistic for a child as he would be killed at any minute.

After coming into this world, Dawn has been planning for his future.

He is "good and lawful", but that doesn't mean he has to work for a force until his death, especially when there are a group of scum above him.

At least one thing is certain: for a long time, Dawn needed to operate as a navy, and at the same time, he also needed to accumulate strength and reputation for himself.

After all, rice has to be eaten bite by bite.

However, the identity change that Adolf brought to Dawn can be said to be of great help to Dawn.
