Johnny and Joseph, who had been silent, spoke up.
"Boss Zoro, Boss Luffy, everyone, it's time for us to say goodbye."
Luffy looked surprised.
"Eh? Aren't you guys coming together?"
The two of them had been following the ship all these days, so when they arrived in Rogue Town, everyone tacitly accepted the idea that they were partners.
Johnny and Joseph looked at each other, then sighed. Johnny looked at everyone seriously and said, "We really want to continue sailing with you, but we don't have the ambition to become the world's greatest swordsman like Zoro, nor do we have Luffy's dream of becoming the Pirate King."
Joseph: "So there's no reason for us two brothers to go on the Grand Line. If we continue to follow the ship, there will definitely be too many problems in the future."
"Rather than making things difficult for everyone later."
"Why not just make the decision here?"
Johnny and Joseph looked at each other with sincerity.
"Is that so?" Zoro was not surprised. He was the most familiar with the two people's situation on the ship. He thought they would just follow quietly.
But Luffy was reluctant to leave.
After all, the two of them got along well with him.
We laugh and chat while eating, and we can have fun together when playing.
Luffy rarely sat up straight.
"Is this really the end?"
The two looked at each other and then bowed ninety degrees.
"I really appreciate your care these days. If possible, we would also like to continue to follow in the footsteps of the big brothers, but it seems that we can only stop here." X2
Cheng Lang witnessed the whole scene.
To be honest, the reason why the two of them were still on the boat was also Cheng Lang's deliberate intention.
After all, in the original book, the two of them were too weak. After fighting with Aaron, they deeply realized their own weakness. Then they said goodbye when they were about to leave Kokoyasi Village, and then they stayed in Kokoyasi Village for a long time.
However, the story did not develop in the same way as the original. The two did not even participate in the final battle in the end. This was naturally arranged by Cheng Lang. The reason was that the items on the boat were more important, and at that time they were relying on the MC wooden boat made by Cheng Lang to reach the island, so someone had to control the boat.
Naturally, these two people are Johnny and Joseph.
I thought this would change the fate of the two, but now it seems that the result is still the same.
Chapter 58: Lang's Dream, Fate's Beheading
Cheng Lang said, "Actually, if you're just afraid of being weak, then you two have already known my abilities these days, right?"
Johnny and Joseph nodded in response.
"You are going to become great pirates in the future. Joseph and I also have a dream, which is to become a powerful bounty hunter, just like my hometown was once saved by an unknown bounty hunter."
"So, we may have disagreements in the future. Instead of making things difficult for the big brothers, it's better to say goodbye." Joseph nodded in agreement.
This is also the result of careful consideration by the two.
"In that case, there's really nothing we can do." Luffy gave up on the invitation.
After all, this is someone's dream.
"Speaking of which, what are your dreams?" Luffy turned to look at the other people on the boat.
Zoro: "The world's greatest swordsman."
Sanji: "ALL BLUE is where all the fish from the four seas gather."
Nami: "Draw a map of all the islands in the ocean."
Usopp: "I...I want to be a brave sea warrior!"
The dreams of the five people in the original novel are told.
Following them were Cheng Lang and others.
Alrita: "Become the strongest and most beautiful woman."
Kuya Mi: "I...I want to change myself and become...the most eye-catching person."
Finally, it was Cheng Lang's turn: "Is it my turn now? My dream…"
Cheng Lang thought back a lot. Before he traveled through time, his dreams didn't actually exist. Or rather, they were just small expectations, just like a hungry person needs to eat a full meal, just for the sake of survival.
As for dreams... he didn't have any until he came to this world, and he hadn't thought about them before joining Luffy, but they gradually came to him during the journey.
"My dream is to change."
"Change?"
"Yeah, change the world!"
"???"
"Because the world isn't supposed to be like this. Although people aren't absolutely equal, at least more people can choose how to live their lives, rather than becoming pirates for no apparent reason. Children won't be born without parents. People should live more freely, right?"
Cheng Lang finished speaking his thoughts.
For a moment, everyone on the boat was stunned.
This dream is really too fantastic, even better than becoming the Pirate King.
"Hahahaha, this dream is awesome! I like it! Yes! People should live more freely!"
Apparently Luffy only understood the last sentence.
The others all smiled.
Alrita and Kuya Mi had complicated expressions, but then they smiled.
The former inexplicably became a pirate, and the latter was born in an orphanage and has been timid and unable to communicate normally since childhood. If she had parents, she would be a happy child now.
"With your thoughts...you should really join the revolutionary army." Alrita said with a smile.
Cheng Lang spread his hands and said, "Who says only the Revolutionary Army can change the world? Can't pirates do the same?"
Johnny and Joseph both shed tears: "Brother Cheng Lang's dream is truly magnificent!"
Joseph nodded. "Yes, if such a dream could really come true, perhaps the world would be a better place. That might actually bring an end to the Great Pirate Era."
Finally, Johnny and Joseph disembarked.
Cheng Lang gave them the final equipment.
Each person gets an MC boat and a box containing an MC fishing rod and two sets of 1,000-yuan chacha fruits.
"Take care!" Luffy smiled and waved.
Port side.
At the alley entrance, Long Ye left silently.
"Change..."
start sailing.
Head to the Grand Line.
A voyage of less than half a day.
There was thunder in the sky.
In the distance is the red earth continent that reaches the sky.
In the heavy rain, the entrance to Upside Down Mountain is marked by gateposts engraved with dragon totems.
"It's so high! Is that the Red Earth Continent?" Luffy sighed as he stood in the storm.
Nami, on the other hand, frowned and looked in the direction.
"Something's wrong! Sail a little to the right!"
Usopp was currently at the helm, and he was gritting his teeth at the moment.
"I'm doing it!"
Sensing Usopp's hardship, Sanji also went to help.
But when Sanji tried it, he unexpectedly found that the rudder was really difficult to turn.
The two worked together.
Just like in the original novel, the rudder broke.
"No consumption!"
Cheng Lang, who had anticipated this, immediately stepped forward and placed the fence directly above the broken rudder.
"Hurry and steer."
Three people exerted force at the same time.
Finally, the Merry was back on track.
"Wow! That's so scary!" Usopp was sweating with fear. He couldn't even imagine what would happen if he bumped into it.
"This is just the first step to enter the Grand Line. This step alone can eliminate pirates with poor ships." Nami was not surprised at all.
Cheng Lang was a little disappointed.
It's not that I'm disappointed that I didn't hit it.
But the plot of the Millennium Dragon is missing.
He was still very curious about the Whisper Fruit and the Scythe Fruit. Of course, he also wanted to try to see if he could get the Scythe Fruit, and see if the conversion table could be sold. If it could be sold, it would mean that he could have an unlimited supply of devil fruits.
At that time, we will directly form a team that can use the sickle fruit, wave our hands together when facing the enemy, and directly blow out a huge whirlwind.
As for the Whispering Fruit, if properly manipulated, wouldn't it possess an ability similar to the voice of all things? And if further development continues, could this fruit even hear the whispers of inanimate objects?
If you can also hear the whispers of the enemy's muscles, wouldn't that be similar to observation Haki? If you develop it a little more exaggeratedly, and hear the whispers of the wind, wouldn't you be able to know who is where?
Pity.
