Chapter 399 - 454—We have taken the wrong path in this life

The night was charming and it was making people intoxicated.

The starry sky was as bright as a long river.

The figure of the Golden Lion dragged a long shadow in the starlight.

He was silent all the way and didn't speak.

Whitebeard followed him quietly, also without saying a word.

At a certain moment, the Golden Lion suddenly stopped.

He raised his head slightly and looked at the distant sky in a trance.

Whitebeard subconsciously looked in the direction of his gaze. At that position, far away, there was a black flag with a sharp sword piercing a skull, fluttering in the wind in the sky.

——The righteous black flag of the new navy.

Whitebeard paused and asked in a deep voice, "Old bastard, if I remember correctly, you hated the navy back then, right?"

He clearly remembered that the Flying Shiki Pirates that roamed the New World back then were full of vicious criminals.

They were all pirates who lived on the edge of a knife and regarded human life as worthless, and there were no interns at all.

Like the situation just now... the kid was only eight years old; it was impossible for it to exist because Flying Admiral Golden Lion didn't like children.

He believed that the existence of such kids would only weaken the combat effectiveness of the pirate group.

Golden Lion stood on the street like a statue.

The streetlights on both sides of the street reflected each other. The dim yellow light seemed to be lighting the way home for those who were returning home.

"Yes, I really hate kids."

"Especially a kid like that, he is useless and will only cause you trouble."

The voice of the Golden Lion came out slowly in the wind, revealing an inexplicable bleakness and melancholy.

Not far away, several children were playing and running under the streetlights, and bursts of noisy laughter came.

"If it were the old me, I would probably throw him out of the conscription department without hesitation."

The Golden Lion suddenly laughed and scolded, "What a stupid and hopeless kid."

But WhiteBeard slowly clenched his fists.

Because he suddenly saw that the pair of eyes on the side of the Golden Lion's face, which were full of the baptism of war and the vicissitudes of time, were actually a little moist.

Was it an illusion? That... the flying admiral who clamored to destroy the headquarters of the navy actually cried.

Whitebeard tried to open his eyes to see clearly, but the fact made him even more speechless.

"You are feeling guilty."

Whitebeard let out a long breath and said in a deep voice.

Golden Lion grinned and smiled hard, "Yes, I also find it strange."

"I am obviously a bastard who kills without blinking an eye."

"But when I faced the calm eyes of that kid, I actually hesitated."

"Five certificates.... Pirates plundering.... For such a simple reason, the eight-year-old kid ran to the conscription department."

The wind slowly stopped as if listening to Shiki.

"Newgate, tell me, have I failed in my life?"

The Golden Lion suddenly asked such a question.

White Beard was stunned and then shook his head and said, "Liu Feng told me that whether a person's life is successful or not has nothing to do with the evaluation of the outside world."

The Golden Lion said, "Then, I really failed in my life. Pirates plundering.... It turns out that unknowingly, over the years, perhaps, it was because of me that I created one tragedy after another."

"JiHahaha! Flying Admiral Shiki the Golden Lion! So majestic!!"

He laughed so mockingly that tears came out of his eyes.

Whitebeard stared at the Golden Lion in front of him, stretched out his hand, and wanted to pat his shoulder.

But that hand couldn't pat him no matter what.

"Whitebeard..."

Golden Lion looked at the group of children playing not far away with red eyes and whispered, "We have taken the wrong path in this life."

"The dream of a pirate is nothing but a success built on the tragedy of others. Now I look at those children; I really want to help them."

He trembled with shaking hands and then took out a cigar from his bosom, lit it, and took a deep breath.

The smoke filled his face, blurring it.

"We can't let these kids suffer the same loss we suffered."

"It's obviously a stone. If they fall, they'll get their heads broken and bloody."

"We have to go over there, move the stone away, and let them go over there."

"Instead of fooling them. Kid, go out to sea. This stuff is good. Pirates are so free. You can do it. No problem."

"In the end, they fell and got blood all over. We can't rest easy."

Whitebeard listened quietly and suddenly said, "But what if they don't listen?"

Golden Lion spat out a puff of smoke and said, "How they go in the future is their own business."

"But now that we have seen it. Let's help if we can."

"This sea will not become better because of the appearance of ten flying admirals, Golden Lion Shiki."

"But as long as a black-armed Zephyr appears, a lot can be changed."

"You came to me to ask this question, right?"

Golden Lion turned around, looked at Whitebeard seriously, and laughed wantonly.

"I don't believe in justice. But I believe in Zephyr."

Whitebeard was shocked.

Golden Lion believed in Zephyr, and Zephyr believed in Liu Feng.
