Pirates: I will first max out the domineering color if I am not dead

Xia Le did not turn around, but he could still clearly feel the sad feelings in the hearts of the people around him.

"The teacher has finally passed away."

"No disease, no disaster."

"Birth, old age, illness, and death are things that mortals must experience, and no one can escape them."

Kuzan sighed softly.

"It's joy and mourning!"

Xia Le nodded.

There was some sadness in his heart, and the death of someone close to him naturally made him feel more deeply, and also made the loneliness in his heart even stronger.

From then on, no older person cared about him in this world.

In their lifetime, most people just want to be a child who is cared for. They will not wake up until their parents and relatives pass away.

It turns out that relatives will leave, parents will leave, and eventually I will grow up and face the world alone.

Xia Le stood there in a daze for a long time.

The people around him left in twos and threes, and he was recalling the series of events from the moment he first met each other to the subsequent events.

Under Garp's guidance, he stood by his side without hesitation when he was Marie Joa, and when he assumed the position of marshal, he retired and led the SWROD team away.

Unconsciously, Xia Le burst into tears.

The death of a loved one is not a sudden downpour, but a silent drizzle that moistens everything. Over a long period of time, on a deserted night, it will invade your bone marrow and mind, making you sad. Inexplicable.

"I didn't expect that this guy Garp would leave one step ahead of me!"

The old soldier said with a sigh while leaning on a cane.

He didn't seem to be feeling much sadness and had a smile on his face as he spoke.

"It's Marshal of the Warring States Period!"

Someone around said in shock and quickly got out of the way.

By this era, the status of the Warring States Period was naturally extremely high and highly respected. Undoubtedly, it was when he recognized the Admiral that he laid the foundation for Xia Le to change the world situation.

Xia Le turned his head and his emotions calmed down slightly.

"I'll be leaving soon."

Sengoku said with a chuckle.

"Thank you, Xia Le, for letting us old men live a peaceful life for a long time."

Xia Le shook his head and sighed.

"There is nothing to be sad about. As time goes by, both we and you will leave this world one day."

"Ashes to ashes, dust to dust!"

"At my age, what else can I not see clearly?"

Warring States said with a smile.

"Yes, everyone will leave, and no one will be left behind."

"Garp doesn't want his funeral to look so heavy."

He also said with a smile.

The two people's words made the atmosphere much more relaxed. Gradually, laughter came out.

Xia Le let out a long breath and calmed down.

His eyes were a little complicated.

Because maybe this is just the beginning.

Sure enough, after this.

Sengoku left after four months, and Crane left after six months.

Three companions who had been together since their youth passed away one after another, and they walked together.

After that, Zefa brought flowers and wine to the three of them.

Two months later, the teacher of many today's generals also passed away in style.

At this point, Xia Le's previous generation of navy, the veterans of the old era, are almost gone.

And the world has entered a new era.

The generals during the Chaillot period began to retire on a large scale, and it was time to recuperate.

New young generals came to power, and the world began a new cycle.

Another year passed.

Xia Le sat at home and sighed softly when he heard the news that Cyborg Kong had passed away in Impel Down City Prison.

On this day, he sat in the yard of his home and was lost in thought for a long time.

During his lunch break, he woke up with a start.

Suddenly, I remembered something.

That was a sentence that suddenly appeared in his mind and ears when he succeeded as Admiral of the Navy.

"Wealth, fame, power, strength, these things that you have worked so hard to get, are you willing to give them up?"

"Then, start a new life that belongs to you?"

Even after decades apart, these words still seem to be very clear in Xia Le's mind.

He was very sure that this was a pop-up window from the system, a choice targeted at him.

At that time, he chose to give up.

Then, the next time, it never appeared.

"If it comes up again."

"What choice would I make?"

Xia Le murmured.

As time goes by, everyone who was once close to him will leave, and he will become alone.

Although the world is still prosperous and his reputation as the founding emperor is endless, he is still lonely.

At this moment, he actually looked forward to that choice appearing again.

Maybe this time, he will think about that question carefully.

"But I still have one thing to do."

Xia Le murmured.

Although a long time had passed in the new empire, he still had not forgotten that the man named Im might still be hiding somewhere.

Over the years, the Imperial Intelligence Organization has searched almost every place in the world, but there is still no news.

"where are you?"

"Im!"

Xia Le will never relax when it comes to the leader behind the World Government.

If that choice arises again, he will make a decision after dealing with the other party.

Time continues to pass.

In the blink of an eye, the empire has ushered in thirty years.

This year, Kuzan announced his abdication, and the empire was taken over by a new man.

By this time, the empire will have its third emperor.

Xia Le had already retired, and in the quiet courtyard there was only the sound of Xia Ming's careful analysis.

"Could it be Admiral Smoker?"

"Or where are the two ministers Baki and Rosinandi?"

"In short, the new emperor will be selected from their generation."

After setting his dream to be the Great Emperor, this son is obviously very concerned about political events.

Xia Le closed his eyes slightly, not paying attention to these things.

In his opinion, after he retired, he was out of touch with the kingdom. The political changes and the appointment and dismissal of officials have nothing to do with him.

As a result, he often sighs with emotion.

Even a world-beating figure can only have an impact on world history for an era.

Of course, he never wanted to manage the world forever.

That's so tiring.

Half a year later, a new emperor took office.

The choice was beyond everyone's expectations, and also surprised Xia Le.

"Kirby?"

"What an unexpected choice."

Xia Le said with emotion.

"Actually, it's not unexpected. It's just that Minister Kebi has kept a low profile over the years and has never revealed it."

Xia Ming said.

"But I actually know very well that Minister Kebi has been working crazy hard over the years. His contribution is a hundred times, a thousand times more than that of others!"

"Now, his strength is already very strong!"

Hearing this, Xia Le nodded.

He has always recognized this junior brother's efforts.

The two were chatting when there were footsteps at the door.

Xia Le looked up and saw a figure stepping in at the courtyard gate.

Wearing a white military uniform, a righteous cloak on the back, and a navy hat on his head, his face is very mature, and he looks very imposing in his movements.

"Your Majesty Kebi!"

Xia Ming's eyes widened, he quickly stood up and bent down to salute.

"No need to be polite, I'm here to meet my senior brother!"

Kirby smiled and waved his hands.

Xia Ming breathed a sigh of relief and then stepped away.

The Kebi in front of him is no longer the former, but the supreme emperor of the current empire. Unlike his father, he naturally needs to be respected.

"Why do you have time to come to my place?"

Xia Le glanced at the other party and said casually.

"I've been busy lately, and I haven't come to see my senior brother for a long time."

Kebi said cautiously.

Even though decades had passed since the two met, and he had become the emperor of this huge empire, he still felt nervous and awe from the bottom of his heart after seeing the other person.

"Have a heart."

"Take care of this country and do what you have to do."

Xia Le said with a chuckle.

"We, the older generation, step back to clear the way for you, the younger generation."

"The empire has a foundation, but that doesn't mean you have nothing to do."

"You must know that it is easy to conquer a country, but it is difficult to defend it. You must balance the interests of all classes."
