Pirate: I open a wooden escape on the top

Chapter 80 Can We Join the Navy?
"Yuck~"

"Wow~"

Seeing all the sailors who were throwing up, Eddie and the adjutant clicked their tongues at the same time.

After offering Eddie a cup of coffee and being refused, the adjutant leaned against the wall and spoke to him.

"The psychological endurance of these navies is a bit poor. How can they survive at sea like this?"

Eddie squinted at him, lit a cigar and said disdainfully.

"Tch, I'm ashamed to tell them that I was not the same back then."

It just so happened that these words were heard by a few navy soldiers who were uttering their words, and they looked at the adjutant inexplicably in unison, as if they said you were the same.

The adjutant pretended to drink to hide his embarrassment.

I thought you would be ashamed to say, how many of the pirates you met could be complete, the lightest ones are missing arms and legs, and the worst ones can't even be seen as human.

Always say that even if it is a battle with a pirate, you have to smile.

That's right, you did it, it's okay to be able to tell that you're smirking, the more you smile as usual, the harder your attack will be.
The adjutant looked at Eddie, who was now as plain as water, and thought, this time the smile must be quite real. The stumps and broken legs of the little one hundred people may not even be able to put together fifty sets of whole corpses.
The adjutant took another sip of water, then changed the subject.

"What are you going to do with those kids?"

Eddie exhaled a puff of smoke heavily, looking at the small island that was getting farther and farther away, he said helplessly.

"It's the same as before. Send them to the orphanage in the headquarters first, let them get out of this incident first. After that, if they want to join the navy, they can join the navy. If they want to return to the life of ordinary people, send them to some islands to live .”

The adjutant nodded, this arrangement is indeed the best
At this time, there was a commotion from the cabin where the soldiers were resting.

Eddie and the adjutant looked at each other as if they heard the commotion, and then walked quickly towards the cabin.

Before they arrived, the two of them knew what was going on with these movements.

I just heard the navy inside say: "You go in first, I will go back and report to Lieutenant Admiral Eddie, it won't be long."

And there was an immature, but still unyielding voice shouted.

"No, we need to see your lieutenant general now! We need to see you now!"

Just when the two soldiers were devastated by these little guys, they heard a voice.

"What's going on, what's wrong with these little guys." Eddie walked in with a straight face and asked the soldier.

The sailor saluted Eddie and said.

"Lieutenant General Eddie, these little guys want to see you, but..."

The last navy was a little bit in trouble.
Eddie nodded, and the adjutant nodded to them, telling them to go out first.

After the two marines walked out, it was just Eddie, the adjutant, and the six little guys in the room now.

Eddie asked them with his hands behind his back.

"What do you need from me?"

I saw the stern and somewhat fierce Eddie.The four younger children hid directly behind the two older children.

And the two older children gritted their teeth, puffed out their chests, and summoned up their courage to say to Eddie.

"Are you the vice admiral!"

Eddie heard him say this, nodded in acknowledgment, and waited for the child's next words.

At the same time, he was also thinking about this child, what they wanted to say to him.
Is it why I am on the warship, or is it because I want to find my parents and relatives?

But the kid's answer took Eddie by surprise, or surprise.

And it wasn't just Eddie, the adjutant also had a surprised expression when he heard what the child said.

I just heard the child say loudly: "We want to join the navy!!"

Ok?
Eddie was a little surprised when he heard this, but his expression was well controlled, and when he saw the appearance of his adjutant, he coughed lightly.

The adjutant heard Eddie's voice, and then put away the surprised expression on his face, regained his composure and looked at the children.

Eddie asked, looking back at the kids.

"Why did you join the navy, do you know what happened on the island?"

Said it was you, but he kept looking at the two older kids, especially the boy who was talking to him.

The child who was stared at by Eddie lowered his head when he heard Eddie's words, and said to Eddie, "Can we go outside and talk?"

Eddie nodded and took him out, but the kid next to him said a few words to the four little guys and ran out, leaving only the four youngest kids in the cabin .

When they got outside, Eddie and the adjutant waited quietly for the child to say something.

The child bowed his head while the other child tugged at the hem of his coat.

After a long silence, the child with his head down spoke slowly.

"I know, I know everything. Our village was ransacked by hateful pirates. My father, mother and the village chief all died. Only I and a few younger brothers and sisters survived."

After saying this, the child suddenly raised his head, stared at Eddie with eyes full of hatred, and growled hoarsely.

"I want revenge! We want revenge!!"

"Joining the navy is the best way for us to avenge the pirates!!"

After saying this, the child seemed to have grown a lot suddenly, and looked straight into Eddie's eyes more bravely.

Eddie didn't speak, but just looked at him quietly, the adjutant beside him also didn't say a word, and the atmosphere fell into silence for a while.

After a long time, Eddie sighed slowly.

His expression was much gentler this time, and he squatted down slowly. He looked at the child and asked in a gentle tone.

"Son, how old are you?"

"13 years old!" the child said firmly.

Eddie turned his gaze to the other kid and asked, "What about him?"

"I'm 11 years old."

Before the older child could speak, the younger child spoke directly.

Eddie looked at the two of them and nodded, indicating that he understood.

But instead of answering their words, they raised their hands and rubbed the heads of the two children, then said in a gentle voice.

"Go to sleep, let's talk about it after a while."

The two children felt the warm hands on their heads. The older child finally couldn't help crying, and then slowly fell asleep leaning against Eddie's body.

And the younger child fell asleep after a while.

Eddie motioned for the adjutant to pick up the smaller child on him, and at the same time motioned for the sailors around him to keep quiet.

The two picked up a child each, and the adjutant asked softly, "Lieutenant General Eddie, what's going on~"

Eddie also replied softly: "It's nothing, it's just some small hints, not even illusion~"

Hearing this, the adjutant didn't ask any more questions.

As for the two children, it may be because they were picked up. The child held by the adjutant seemed to be muttering something in his sleep.

But Eddie didn't care, and motioned to the adjutant and himself to carry them back to the room.

After pacifying the other four little ones in the room for a while and letting them fall asleep, the two walked out of the room.

Eddie re-lit the unfinished cigar, and asked the adjutant beside him as he walked.

"What did the child say just now? Is it a dream?"

The adjutant replied: "Well, it should be."

"What did he say?"

The adjutant glanced at Eddie inexplicably: Vice Admiral, you are curious about what a child is talking about in his sleep.

Eddie glanced at him, then looked forward and said, "Can't I be curious, I'm only 21 years old, and I'm just a kid."

The adjutant patted his forehead, often ignoring Eddie's age because of his strength, only then remembered that he was only 21 years old this year.

The adjutant said: "It's nothing, the kid just said 'sister, can we join the navy'."

Eddie let out an 'oh', and continued to walk to the front deck of the warship with the adjutant to see what happened to the soldiers who were throwing up.

But Eddie suddenly realized something.

He staggered, then stared at the adjutant with wide eyes, took down the cigar from his mouth, and confirmed to the adjutant.

"Sister?! You said sister??"

The adjutant looked at Eddie's shocked look, and replied that his sister was right.

Hearing the exact answer, Eddie picked up the cigar and took two puffs, and then made a series of actions that were very different from his usual ones.

The adjutant looked at Eddie who was scratching his head and laughed, and thought to himself: Such Eddie is really not common, this is what he looks like when he is 20 years old.

But Eddie thought: That child is a girl, I thought she was a boy
