I, the Pirate King of the East China Sea

The old man's slightly squinted eyes suddenly widened, and the previous drunkenness disappeared.

He saw the man in front of him walk to the bar and take a few bottles of wine from the wine cabinet with familiarity, as if he was the boss.

"Want something to drink?" Sig asked.

The wrinkles on the old man's face gradually unfolded. He looked at the empty old bar and smiled slightly.

"The one you all liked to drink back then."

"Angel Kiss."

He fixedly watched Seeger start to mix drinks with familiar movements behind the bar, just like many years ago.

After a while, three glasses of Angel's Kiss that had just been prepared were placed in front of the bar.

"Why three cups?" The old man was a little surprised.

Sig chuckled, but didn't answer.

And at this time.

There was another creaking sound from behind.

Chapter 1022 A toast to the past, a toast to tomorrow

There was a soft crunch.

The door of this old bar was pushed open again.

A man with slightly gray hair and also wearing sunglasses stepped in, followed by a woman with freckles.

He glanced at the third glass of Angel Kiss on the bar, smiled slightly, and put the sunglasses on his face on the bar as well.

"It seems that I came... not too late."

"You..." The old man looked at Roger with his cloudy old eyes, then at Sig, and was speechless for a while.

At this time, it has been 55 years since Seeger first came to this bar and met Roger for the first time.

And the last time he saw these two people was when they were executed in Rogge Town, and it had been a full 22 years.

The past is shrouded in smoke, and scenes of the past emerge in my heart.

"Did you forget?" Roger smiled slightly:

"I won't die."

……

Roger sat down at the bar, next to the old man.

Lu Jiu tactfully did not disturb them, but just sat quietly aside.

"So, why did you go to sea? Don't you plan to continue to hide in Goa Kingdom?" Sig asked.

"Don't forget, Rogge Town is my hometown, come here to see what's going on?"

Roger took a sip of his wine, showing a fascinated look:

"I have my own purpose, in a nutshell... everything is for the children."

"Child?" Sig was startled, then remembered something.

He also saw the news some time ago recently, saying that 3 years ago, Supernova Spark Fist Ace joined the Whitebeard Pirates, and the newspaper also gave a close-up of Ace's back.

So, is Roger going to sea for Ace?

Seeger took a sip of his wine and suddenly felt that things became interesting.

"Roger and Whitebeard are robbing their son? Things are getting interesting." Seeger also thought about watching the show.

But he didn't notice that when Lu Jiu next to him heard what Roger said, his face flushed slightly, and he gouged Roger angrily.

"Since you are also planning to go to the great route, do you want to go together?" Sig thought for a moment, and sent an invitation.

Roger?That is a full-level player who has penetrated the world map all the way and cleared customs for many years.

If Roger is around, the difficulty immediately becomes easy.

Roger showed a look of excitement, and after hesitating, he firmly refused.

"It's not very convenient."

Out of the corner of Roger's eye, he secretly glanced at Lu Jiu next to him.

Lu Jiu continued to blush.

As the saying goes, an old man has an ambition for a thousand miles; a martyr is full of ambition in his old age.

Roger is still alive today.

"Let me interrupt for a moment." At this time, an old voice came from the side.

"Are you all planning to come back and go to the great route?" the old man asked in surprise.

The owner of the bar is also their old acquaintance, but for so many years, he has rarely been involved in the conversation between Sieg Rogers, and most of the time he just listened silently from the sidelines.

At this moment, this elderly man seemed to be more excited than the two parties involved.

Sig nodded.

"No matter how long the summer vacation is, it will eventually come to an end." He read softly.

During this trip in the East China Sea, his state of mind was like that of a real traveler. He walked leisurely all the way, wandered around, met the old people of the year, and observed the new generation who had grown up.

Compared with the great route, the trip to the East China Sea is just a leisurely vacation.

Roger nodded too.

"I've been waiting for someone... No, the entire pirate group that arrived at Ralph Drew with me was waiting for someone to appear."

He said with emotion:

"Back then, we came too early and the time has not come, so we can only leave the treasure to the latecomers."

"One day, that latecomer will get the treasure, bear all the history of the past hundreds of years, and bring about a huge war that will sweep the world."

The old man took a short breath.

"Has the time come?" he asked.

"I don't know." Roger shook his head with a smile, his eyes sparkling:

"But I guess the time is near, and it looks like I might live to see that day come."

"A latecomer?" The old man smiled.

He glanced at the empty glass with a little milk left beside the bar.

"Actually, I also received a very nice young man just now." The old man smiled and said, "Roger, it reminds me of you when I was young."

"What you said reminds me of the children next door." Roger thought of something and smiled slightly.

"When I see them, I can always see the shadow of myself back then, as if I have become young again."

Roger shook the wine glass in his hand:

"That's great." He sighed.

Roger's hair was already grizzled.

Even after ten years of time travel, Roger's real age is already in his sixties.

And the owner of the bar is even older, already very old.

Having said that, the two suddenly turned their heads to look at Sig at the same time.

I haven't seen him for many years. Seeger's figure is obviously taller and thicker, and he has a short beard on his chin, giving him a bit more mature temperament, but that's all.

Time seems to be extraordinarily tolerant to him.

……

These old people from the old days chatted for a long time over fine wine in this empty old bar.

But there is no banquet that never ends.

Roger was the first to get up and leave.

"Then, I'll take a step first."

Although his hair was gray, he was still in good spirits, and his movements were crisp when he stepped up, without any slowness, and he was still like a young and middle-aged man.

Then there's Sig.

He hesitated for a while before standing up and looking at the door of the bar.

He knew that after walking out of this door and entering the great route, everything would be different.

As long as he stays in the East China Sea and doesn't return to be the Bandit King, he can call himself the invincible stream of Xinshou Village, and he can spend his days leisurely and enjoy the holidays.

But going to the great route is the starting point of another story.

"Or just stay in the East China Sea..." Sieg sighed indistinctly, pushed open the door, and his figure gradually disappeared.

The old man stood quietly behind the bar, watching the backs of these people as they left.

He was the only one left in this old bar, but his mood was different from before.

The old man's eyes fell on the bar.

The three empty wine glasses are on one side, and the empty milk glass from just now is on the other side.

He stared at the wine glasses in a daze.

Rogge Town is the last stop before entering the great route. As the bar owner here, he has received countless pirates decades ago.

And what he can do is just hand over a glass of Zhuang Xingjiu.

During the day, there were two groups of customers in the bar.

The younger generation like Luffy is the future.Roger and Sig are from a bygone era.

The two groups of people, the front and the back, will both enter the great route in this chaotic era that is becoming more and more out of control.
