Pirates: The Mechanic of the Straw Hats

Karl lay on his back on the ground, breathing heavily and spitting out blood.

Suddenly, he saw a shadow shrouded in front of him, it was Luffy

“how? Are you going to kill me?”

Karl originally thought that the other party was going to kill him to silence him, but he didn’t expect that the other party actually pulled him up.

“I see what you mean, Carl”

“No, you don’t understand!”

“No, I get it!”

“Then do you still want to be the Pirate King?”

“of course! Not only do I want to become the Pirate King, but I also want to pull you on board.”

“You still don’t understand, pirates want to kill people! And I can’t do it!”Karl shook his head,”You probably don’t need a waste that can’t even kill a pig, right?”

“What does that matter? I haven’t killed anyone either! Just knock them all out! Get rid of those bad guys who kill people!”

“Hahahaha, why are you a pirate if you don’t dare to kill people?! Karl laughed and said,”The Holy Mother cannot be a pirate!””

“Are you going to die? Like you said at the beginning, giving up your life?”

“Don’t you know? Life is the most worthless thing in this era!”

“Why do you sit on the supreme throne with the cheapest bargaining chip?”

“Then bet everything on me!”

“As long as you’re better than them all, that’s fine!”Luffy rolled up his sleeves and showed off his muscles like a bodybuilder,”I wish I were strong enough to knock them all out with one punch.””

“You can’t beat them all!”

“Who can say for sure about this kind of thing?”

“Even if you defeat everyone and become the Pirate King, so what? The Pirate King is a thief after all! Everyone will fear you, revile you, and regard you as a devil”

“so what? Now that I’m on this path, I don’t care what others think.”

Luffy stood up holding his waist and stretched out his hand towards Carl:

“So, Carl, be my partner.”

Looking at the figure in front of him, Karl’s heart was shaken for the first time.

“Never!”

Coming back to his senses, Carl slapped Luffy’s hand away, got up and continued to deal with the prey.

“I told you, I will not become a pirate.”

“Just like the promise you made to become the Pirate King, I also made a promise to someone to become a good person!”

The blazing fire was reflected in Carl’s pupils, and between the fire, a face seemed to vaguely emerge, a memory that did not belong to this world.

After hearing this, Luffy finally understood the other person’s intention. Meaning.

Promise is an amazing power!

If others had said this, Luffy might have given up, but unfortunately Carl was too much to his liking, and his words were also very interesting.

Those opinions were all Lu Fei’s. I had never heard of such a thing before.

Luffy sat down next to Carl and started scratching his head and thinking hard. After a long time, he suddenly said this:

“As long as you’re not a pirate, that’s fine!”

“Um?”

“You can be a non-staff member on my ship! Then just say that you are a hostage that I forced onto the ship.”

Karl:…..

“Don’t be so outrageous, okay? I’m talking about will, do you understand will? Who can you deceive with your formalism?”

“Yeah~~There’s nothing we can do about it!”Luffy was very distressed and sat down on the ground.

“So, after you leave, will you go into the Navy?”

“navy? Most likely not”

“Don’t you hate pirates?”

“They are very annoying, but I can’t beat them!”Karl curled his lips,”There is a saying in my hometown that is very good.”

“Being poor cares themselves, being wealthy cares the world”

“What’s the meaning? I don’t understand!”

“That is to say, if I were a weakling, I would just live my own little life, just like me now.”Karl explained patiently,”And if I am capable and as powerful as you, I will help more people. For example, you now hunt so many prey and share them with me.”

“Oh, I understand, when I become the Pirate King, I will be the most powerful person in the world.” Luffy thought.

“That’s right”

“Then I will help more people”

“That’s right”

“Hunt more wild boars and share them with everyone in the world!”

Karl fell to the ground instantly

“The wild boar has provoked you after all!”

Karl, who got up, immediately complained.

“how about you?”Luffy ignored Carl’s complaints and asked blankly.

“What?”

“Where is your dream?”

“my dream? Let’s just eat and wait to die. What I hope most now is to open a restaurant at the Navy Headquarters after I go out. I can make some money and wait to die without having to worry about pirates coming to burn, kill and loot. You don’t know, there are pirates everywhere now, maybe the navy headquarters is safer.”

As he said that, Karl seemed to think of something happy and joked:

“If you are caught by then, I can also bring you food. How about roasting wild boar?”

“Great! Then I want to eat ten, oh no, a hundred roasted wild boars!”

“Okay, okay, if I can live to that day, even if I lose everything, I will still give you a full meal! There is a custom in my hometown that you must eat well when you are decapitated.”

“It sounds very good! But that’s not what I’m asking about”

“what is that?”

“Your dream!”

“That’s my dream!”

“But this is your poor dream. What if it comes true? That’s the one…”

“If you achieve great things, you can help the world!”Karl shook his head helplessly, but when he saw Luffy’s serious eyes, he couldn’t help but feel dazed for a moment.

Right, where’s Dar?

All this time, he seems to be looking at himself based on the criterion of”poor”, in line with a Live with the mentality of having enough to eat and the whole family not to be hungry.

It seems that I have never thought about what if I”achieve”?

Contribute to the world!

What is my dream?

I have never thought about it!

Why have I never thought about it? ?

Is it fear? Or…Accepted the reality?

Accepted…My own ordinaryness and mediocrity?

Is it when you find out after college that your salary is pitiful? Or is it when you are forced to hide your former ideals in your heart for the sake of life?

Karl can’t remember it anymore!

“I…I have no idea!”

Karl was still smiling, but it was just a forced smile. Even he didn’t notice it. Tears flashed in his eyes as he smiled.

However, Luffy noticed it.

“Then think about it!”

“What do you want to do with that kind of thing? It has nothing to do with me anyway! I definitely can’t reach that level”

“Then leave it to me!”Luffy stood up and said loudly with a serious look on his face,”Then please tell me!”
