People are sailing, monster hunters are fighting in groups

Chapter 400

By the time Albert finished the call, it was already late at night.

Lu Jiu was indeed a good cook, and it didn't take long for him to prepare some very good side dishes for Albert and Roger.

The two men ate while praising Lu Jiu's cooking skills.

"How about it, are you more envious of me now?" Roger asked with a raised eyebrow and very proud.

Albert took another big gulp of wine, grabbed a skewer and chewed it twice, then nodded and said, "Yes, it's a pity that the wine is good, the food is good, but you are not a good person."

"You, who are in collusion with the World Government, have no right to say that to me..."

Roger peeled open a peanut, squeezed out the peanuts inside, threw it into his mouth, and then said, "I just didn't expect that you have been out to sea for such a long time, and your tentacles can reach so far... Even the CP agency has your spies..."

"These are all relationships that come from the exchange of interests."

Albert took out a cigarette box from his arms and gestured to Roger.

"It's okay, my disease won't be affected by taking a few more puffs of smoke."

Albert didn't act pretentiously, and immediately lit a cigarette and smoked it.

"In the final analysis, although the World Government's ship looks gorgeous and indestructible, it has actually been rotten inside."

Albert exhaled a puff of smoke and then slowly said: "A smart man like Spandine, although he has the label of the World Government on him, is not absolutely loyal to the World Government after all."

"There is a saying that goes, loyalty is just because the stakes of betrayal are not high enough."

"Now the price I offer him is high enough, so he will naturally have a deep connection with me within the appropriate range."

"Besides, doesn't the World Government always like to plant nails around us pirates? Who stipulates that pirates can't plant nails around the World Government?"

Albert didn't say some of his words completely. Although the World Government's ship exudes a rotten smell, it is still big and stable enough. In this case, Spandine will not choose to jump ship.

But if the wave in the future is big enough, who can say for sure?

Albert believed that people like Spandain would never want to sink with this big ship.

After listening to Albert's story, Roger's eyes were a little dazed.

"You are such an interesting guy..."

Through the swirling smoke, he looked at Albert and said, "Actually, I have the same idea as you. It's time for the World Government to face a storm..."

"Albert, do you know? I found that the sea seems to be accumulating a force, a force that wants to set off a huge wave."

Roger's originally drunken eyes suddenly became firm. Before Albert could say anything, he continued, "All these signs mean that a new wave is about to arrive, and the world will change for it, and I--"

"I saw the future on the final island, Raftel!"

"The future?"

"Yes, this future is elusive. The answer may be hidden in the upcoming huge waves, and twenty years later, everything will be revealed..."

Roger's voice was full of yearning and regret, but Albert laughed when he heard it.

"Hahaha, you want to be a riddle man? 20 years? You probably won't even have bones left by then... Why are you worrying so much now?"

"No..."

Roger put down his glass and said with a serious expression: "It's true that the wave of the new era is coming, but it lacks a brave man to open it..."

"So you are going to play the role of that brave man?" Albert asked with a smile.

"I, Gol D. Roger, the freest pirate on this sea, the Pirate King who conquered the Grand Line... Who else can open the door to the new era but me?"

Looking at Roger's heroic appearance, Albert laughed and patted the table.

"Great, great, come on, have a drink, toast to the brave!"

"Cheers to the brave!"

Then the two of them drank some more wine and talked about the past.

Especially when talking about Kapuski and others, the two of them complained for a long time.

While chatting, Roger suddenly stood up, walked into the house, rummaged around for a while, and came out with a knife.

"Are you going to show off to me that you have the best sword?"

Albert gave Roger a cold look.

Roger laughed, and then gently stroked the scabbard.

"The Supreme Blade... To me, it is more like a partner of mine, an ace that has been with me for decades. "

"Ace, Ace..." Albert murmured softly, waiting for Roger to continue his unfinished words.

"My life is coming to an end. The future 20 years later must be an era that people yearn for, but unfortunately..."

Albert looked at Roger silently without saying anything.

"In fact, Lu Jiu is pregnant with my child."

Roger's eyes fell on Albert, "I'm going to be a father, Albert!"

"Congratulations!"

Roger smiled and continued, "Lu Jiu and I have discussed that if the child is a girl, I hope he can live a peaceful life, so his name is 'An'."

"And if the child is a boy, then he will be my ace for the next 20 years. "

Looking at Roger, whose momentum suddenly became more powerful, Albert nodded gently.

"So the name of this child..."

"Ace, Gol D. Ace! I believe in my son, my trump card! He will definitely make this sea stormy again! He can see this turbulent new world with his own eyes on my behalf!"

"Ace... What a good name..."

Perhaps in the original story, when Newgate knew the true identity of Ace, he had already understood what Roger meant.

Perhaps it was at that moment that Newgate decided to help Roger realize this dream.

"However, even if it is your own son, the continuation of your own bloodline, this approach is still full of regrets, Roger!"

Albert looked at the Pirate King who was gradually restraining his momentum, and there was some inexplicable look in his eyes.

"If I have a chance for you to make up for your regrets, are you willing to try it? Roger? ”
