Chapter 60 Burning Ambition
South China Sea, Batelila Island.
Pink petals, melodious music, blood-red wine glasses, white wedding dresses, green lawns, and laughter make up a small-scale wedding banquet.
In this small town which is not very famous in the whole South China Sea, a couple is walking hand in hand, with happy smiles on their faces, stepping into the palace of happiness.
That’s right, today on Batirila Island, a wedding event with a cheerful atmosphere is taking place.
On the stage, the mustache man and the young woman in a wedding dress stood together with smiles on their faces, and had a simple interaction under the hosting of the wedding host.
All the wedding participants were immersed in the joyous atmosphere, and no one noticed that three men in plain clothes sat silently at the round table in the corner of the wedding venue.
Xia Le stared at the two people who were getting married on the stage, narrowing his eyes slightly.
They arrived in the South China Sea seven days ago, and after a series of inquiries, they just arrived at the island today.
Coincidentally, there was a wedding at this time.
The atmosphere was very lively, and Xia Le's eyes were fixed on the two people on the stage.
No one could have imagined that the world-famous Pirate King Gol D. Roger was standing on the wedding platform at this moment, holding another woman's hand, like an ordinary civilian, stepping into the happiest palace of his life.
Opposite him, Crocodile looked obviously surprised and stared at his face in disbelief.
"How did you know?"
This question was asked by Barrett on the other side, his tone serious and solemn.
There is no doubt that no one in the world would have thought that the Pirate King would be hiding on an unknown island in the South China Sea, in a small town with only a few hundred people, and even having a wedding in front of them.
But the man in front of him actually headed straight for this island as soon as he entered the South China Sea.
How did he know?
"May it be guidance from the unknown!"
Xia Le smiled lightly.
After a pause, his eyes once again focused on the two people on the stage.
"Let's enjoy this banquet first!"
"It's time to participate in the old captain's wedding, right, Barrett?"
Barrett was silent, and his hands under the table had unconsciously clenched into fists.
He couldn't imagine that the strongest man who had once been invincible, overcame numerous difficulties and obstacles, became the Pirate King, and was just one step away from ruling the world, was now walking into the wedding hall on such an unknown island.
"You are fallen!"
"Roger!"
At the same time as he was angry, Barrett also felt an unspeakable sadness in his heart.
Even a king who was once at the top of the world cannot avoid returning to ordinary life in his twilight years and quietly waiting for death to come?
"You are like this!"
"I would rather send you off from this world with my own hands!"
Barrett suddenly gritted his teeth and looked towards the stage with a fierce look.
At this time, Roger, who was holding a wedding ceremony on the stage, looked at the corner and saw Xia Le and the other two sitting there quietly. His expression suddenly changed slightly.
"What's wrong, Roger?"
Lu Jiu noticed the change in his expression and asked immediately.
Then she also saw the three people below.
"Are they your friends?"
Roger smiled and held Lu Jiu's hand: "Friends?"
“Maybe.”
There was also a hint of surprise in his heart. Compared with the whole world, the place where he was hiding was just like a drop of water in the ocean. How could the navy find it so quickly?
Afterwards, Roger paid no more attention to the matter.
Since the other party did not choose to cause trouble the first time he arrived, but instead quietly attended the wedding, other things can be dealt with after the wedding is over.
The wedding atmosphere quickly reached its climax, with the entire audience cheering and applauding.
Roger acted very calm, as if he didn't see Xia Le and the other two at all.
Even during the thank-you session that followed, he brought Lu Jiu down to clink glasses with the three of them.
"How is your teacher?"
Roger asked with a smile.
"Very good, he went to the East China Sea."
Xia Le said.
"It's a shame you didn't come to my wedding."
Roger laughed.
“That might be a good thing.”
Xia Le smiled.
The two of them responded calmly, as if they were friends who had known each other for many years, and Roger did not show any abnormality. This made Lu Jiu really believe that the three people in front of her were good friends of her husband.
"Barrett, I didn't expect to see you here!"
Roger laughed again.
"Snapped!"
Barrett responded in silence, but the cup in his hand suddenly broke.
Lu Jiu's face changed and she immediately asked someone to bring some paper.
"No need!"
Barrett said stiffly, then sat down on the chair.
"Happy wedding to you!"
He managed to utter a few words, and then there was no more sound.
"you are?"
Roger watched this scene with a smile on his face, and then turned his gaze to Crocodile.
The latter was somewhat flattered and raised his glass: "Happy wedding! You can call me Crocodile."
"Haha, I hope you have a happy party too!"
Roger laughed.
Afterwards, the couple left and continued to entertain others.
The banquet was not large, with only about ten people at the table, most of whom were Lu Jiu's relatives and friends in the town. There were very few of Roger's close friends. Therefore, in the following time, the three of them were surrounded by enthusiastic villagers.
The overall atmosphere is lively.
Xia Le did not rush to take action.
He was silently observing Roger at the moment. From the outside, he did not seem to be seriously ill and was in good spirits. As the Pirate King, his domineering and powerful aura also disappeared silently.
The Pirate King hiding on Baterila Island really seems like a commoner and is very inconspicuous.
Soon, the wedding was over.
The guests said goodbye to them in twos and threes and left, and the place soon became empty.
"When shall we start?"
Barrett gritted his teeth.
He was filled with unspeakable anger in his heart, as if he could not bear the fact that his former king was now so powerless.
"Wait!"
"He will come to us."
Xia Le said softly.
Crocodile was a little hesitant at this moment: "Should we really do something to him?"
The opponent is the Pirate King Roger!
The most powerful of the three great legends in the world!
Can the three of them really take down such a strong man?
In response to this question, Xia Le just smiled and did not respond.
This wait lasted the entire afternoon until about dusk.
The three of them saw a man with a mustache, dressed in casual clothes and a long knife slung around his waist, walking slowly towards them with a smile on his face.
"Roger!!"
Barrett gritted his teeth.
Roger came in front of the three people and suddenly laughed, his right hand pressing on the hilt of the knife.
A pair of eyes suddenly stared at Xia Le, and the smile at this moment seemed majestic and extremely oppressive, which made the three of them tremble in their hearts.
"Navy boy, I'm in your eyes."
“I saw the burning ambition!”
Xia Le also smiled when he heard this. He colliding his fists, black and red lightning wrapped around them, and his eyes became sharp.
"I have a question!"
"Why did you give up everything, disband the pirate group, and come to this nameless island?"
Roger grinned and drew the sword from his waist, his momentum suddenly rising at this moment.
"because!"
"I have no interest in ruling!"

Chapter 61 An arm
"I have found my freedom!"
"That's enough!!"
The smile on Roger's face showed that his former dominance and kingly aura were quickly returning.
Soon, under the setting sun in the evening, the surrounding space began to vibrate and distort.
But he skillfully controlled this aura within a very small area, so it would not affect other villagers in the town.
Under the traction of Qi, the overlord look on Xia Le's body also burst out, and was compressed by him in an instant, crushing towards the opponent to the greatest extent.
"Free?"
"All you want to be is the Pirate King, and only the Pirate King."
Xia Le murmured.
"Correct!"
“I don’t have the time or energy to do anything else.”
"But there is no doubt that in the future there will be people like me who will do everything by themselves!"
Roger laughed.
