One Piece: Adopting Akainu at the beginning, adopted son Barrett

Chapter 29 Jinbei is going to be a man of the sea!
[A letter to Master Ross
Master, the brothers of the Nasdaq family have been assigned to various generals. With your support, our food and equipment are almost envied by the captains.

And I became the adjutant of a lieutenant general named Zefa, and learned from him.

The two months of life in the navy have made me feel fulfilled. The three years of training have allowed me to accumulate a lot of knowledge and even the armament color you mentioned has been successfully awakened, thanks to the guidance of Mr. Garp.

I have also not fallen behind in the study of Observation and Haki, and I believe that in two years I will be able to take a leave and go home to learn more sophisticated techniques from you.

If Brother Mokasi is here, please tell him that the fulfilling life in the navy has forced me to put aside my swordsmanship studies for the time being. I feel a little sorry about this, after all, he has always been willing to teach me everything he knows.

By the way, I also met a good friend! If I have a holiday, I plan to take him back to Yundao for a good stroll. I believe that Yundao will be quite prosperous by then!

His name is Long, you should know him. He is Mr. Karp's son, the same age as me. Although his personality is only slightly better than Mr. Karp's, I can still talk to him very well, including about our ideals.

That’s all. It’s a bit short, so please forgive me for not being able to think of what to write.

Finally, at the end of next month I will follow Vice Admiral Zefa on my first mission, and the other brothers will follow earlier. I sincerely hope that they can survive and then write you a letter of farewell.

————Your student, written by Sakaski]

Two months later, sitting in the study, Ross slowly folded the letter back to its original shape, then took out a small box, opened it, put the letter in, and stuffed it under his desk.

During these two months, thanks to the support of his two fathers-in-law, the construction of Yundao progressed rapidly, and his office building was finally completed. However, at the same time, the finances were in deficit, and he had to pay for it out of his own pocket.

It's not about wages, it's just food. As for shelter, you can just live in the clouds. They are soft or hard.

On the ocean, there is no such thing as free people in countries that are not members of the World Government. Ordinary people are thankful if they can have enough food to eat. Even some islands are still inhabited by primitive people.

The people who were sent here were just the poorest people. In their original place, two meals a day were considered a big meal for them.

After all, there are not many places to farm in the sea, and the catch of marine fish is also limited.

Ross provided them with food and lodging and only let them work twelve hours a day, and most of their work was just to help transport building materials.

Even so, some people among the people still call him "Lord Sky". You can imagine how cruel this sea is.

Basically, there are beggars and orphans in every kingdom. The sense of disparity within the member countries of the World Government is even greater. Ordinary people are not treated as human beings at all!
Ross had seen a lot of these things during his travels on the sea, otherwise he wouldn't have had just three wives.

Although their hometown was not a member state, the rulers were kind people, and that was why he accepted their original confession.

With his strength, there are many girls in the sea who want to marry him. Even now, there are many noble kings who want to marry him.

Rubbing his temple, Ross felt a wave of fatigue.

He did not have a leisurely life in the past two months. The rapid population growth brought a lot of worries. In order not to be dragged down by food problems, he simply worked as a porter nearby.

Find an island, then use the processing cloud as a shovel to bring back soil that can be used for planting bit by bit.

To this end, Ross even built another small Cloud Island near Cloud Island, which was specifically used for farming.

"bump"

There was a knock on the door.

"Squeak~"

The door was gently opened, revealing Alexander, who had obviously just cried. This morning, Fisher Tiger, who had received Ross's letter, came in person to pick up Jinbei.

Although Ross didn't know how to contact the other party, he knew how to ask someone to contact him. Just sending a letter cost him 200,000 Baileys, which was a clearly marked price in the dark world.

But it was all worth it. At least Alexander and Jinbei established a deep friendship in two months, which was far more than what a mere 200,000 Beli could achieve.

His talent is not particularly strong, and most of his children are just ordinary geniuses. As a father, he is very pleased that they can make some powerful friends.

But at the same time, he felt a little guilty. After all, he couldn't be perfect.

"Father, how can I get to Fishman Island?"

Alexander asked, his tearful tone firm, Jinbei's departure had made him make some kind of resolution.

Ross didn't speak immediately, but gently picked him up and sat him on his lap, then slowly wiped away his tears.

Children are like this. You can't make them self-aware, you can only help them to be self-aware. There are many ways to do this, and the most gentle one is to want to walk with friends.

It could be something else, but in the final analysis, it is to make him have some kind of "goal"!
This kind of goal is what children desire most in their hearts, at least at a certain time, just like Alexander at this moment.

He took the initiative to ask his father to set requirements for him to achieve his current goals, just to be able to hear more of his friend's answers.

After taking a deep breath and letting Alexander calm down, he said:

“The prerequisite for going to Fishman Island is that you have the ability to gain a foothold in the world. Otherwise, I will not let you go out to die.

If you really want to go out and see, start from tomorrow and follow this form. When you meet my expectations, I will personally train you. I promise that you will be able to go to sea when you grow up. How about it?"

As he spoke, Ross took out a small box with Alexander's name on it from under his desk, opened it, took out one of the folded papers, and unfolded it.

The marks were somewhat faded, proving that this was something that had been written at least a few years ago.

Ross handed the form to Alexander and asked him to make his own choice.

"I want to go to sea!"

Without hesitation, Alexander just took a glance and then held him tightly in his hand.

Ross smiled.

"Don't worry, separation is only for a better reunion. Since you are willing to work so hard for your fishman friend, I believe he will not let you down."

He comforted Alexander and tried not to put too much pressure on him, as carrying too much pressure would only backfire, especially for a child.

The less you get in your childhood, the more you want it when you grow up.

Children's hearts are actually quite fragile, and the slightest movement from their parents may cause the strings to go out of tune.

Ross doesn't want Alexander to grow up in a crooked way, even if it means growing up in a positive direction.

"Yeah! Jinbei is amazing. I believe he can become even stronger. He is my future partner, a man who will become a sea hero!"
