Pirate: I am a logistics person, what the hell is the emperor

Chapter 393 The most gentle flower blooms among the thorns (5k)

"Hahaha, look at my new slave."

"He's so small, yet he has so much strength. He's just like a cow, hahaha!"

"Oh, you're indeed of the Bakhanian bloodline. I'm so envious! I wish I could buy a slave like that."

In front of the magnificent palace, a young but strong boy with a shaved head gritted his teeth and bent his waist.

On his back were boxes of heavy objects that did not need to be carried, but because the owner wanted to show off, he had to carry these heavy objects on his back.

The boy was wearing patched and ragged clothes and heavy shackles. The cold iron chains bound his freedom and were tied to a man in gorgeous clothes.

The laughter of the two Celestial Dragons was so harsh, cruelly destroying his soul like a demon.

His feet began to tremble under the weight, and the boy gritted his teeth and tried to hold back the tears that were about to burst out of the corners of his eyes, not daring to relax even a little.

He knew that if the thing on his back fell, he would be whipped mercilessly.

He knew that he would collapse sooner or later, and that he would not be able to escape the painful punishment, but he did not dare to relax even a little.

Looking at his trembling feet, the boy's tears were filled with despair and helplessness.

"Eh? Where is this?"

Luffy stood in the corner of the hall with a confused look on his face, looking around blankly at the unfamiliar surroundings.

"Hey! Everyone!"

"Where are you all? Uncle, Bonnie——!"

Luffy put his hands to his mouth and shouted a few times. His loud voice echoed in the empty hall, but there was no response.

Even the people in the hall ignored him.

"Emm, that's weird."

Luffy frowned and scratched his head.

boom--!
Suddenly, a loud noise made Luffy look back. Countless heavy objects fell from a boy's back with a "clatter", hitting the boy and burying him.

"Hey! Are you okay?"

Luffy shouted with a worried tone, and rushed forward anxiously.

But he was only halfway there.

"Who gave you permission to drop that thing? You piece of shit!"

The Celestial Dragon holding the chain flew into a rage. He pulled out the long whip from his waist and lashed the boy hard!
Snapped!
"Hiss——!!"

The whip hit his back, and the flesh immediately burst open with blood. The boy cried and wailed.
"I'm sorry! Don't hit me!"

"You actually soiled my clothes! You damned slave!"

The boy's begging for mercy was not met with forgiveness, and he was only greeted with even more cruel and painful beatings.

Snapped!
“Ooooooooooooo! It hurts! It hurts so much!”

"Please, Master! Stop hitting me. I know I was wrong! I'm sorry!"

"No! Don't hit me anymore! Please, if dad sees us!"

The boy held his head in his hands and lay on the ground crying bitterly.

At least!
At least I have to protect the front so that when I see my father he won’t worry about me.

With this thought in mind, the boy gritted his teeth and endured the painful torture. The whip left long, bloody marks on his back.

"You bastard! Stop it right now!"

Luffy gritted his teeth and jumped forward, staring at the hideous Celestial Dragon with furious eyes, and punched out with his tightly clenched fists!
boom! !

However, his fist simply passed through the shadow of the Celestial Dragon and violently slammed into the ground, causing it to collapse.

As the palace hall shook violently, the scene before Luffy's eyes shattered like a mirage.

"What exactly is going on!"

Luffy was surprised and his eyes went dark. Before he could react, the scene in front of him suddenly changed and he came to a clean street.

Several Celestial Dragons were standing in the middle of the street chatting and laughing. In front of a house, several slaves huddled in a corner, finally getting a brief respite.

"Hey! Are you okay?"

Luffy recognized one of the boys at a glance, ran forward quickly, and reached out his hand towards the other's shoulder, but passed through the boy again.

At this moment, a shadow covered him. Luffy hurriedly turned around and saw a tall man with an honest and simple expression.

"Are you okay Bear? How have you been these past two days?"

"Well, don't worry, father. My master treats me very well."

"This can be considered a kind of luck, hahaha."

The tall man smiled bitterly and reached out to touch the boy's head.

"Hee hee hee."

Xiong also started to grin foolishly. The wound on his back had not yet healed, and his new slave clothes were faintly stained with scarlet.

"What are you talking about? It's okay! You're already badly injured!"

Luffy gritted his teeth and clenched his fists, his face a little gloomy, and his eyes were filled with a bit of anxiety and helpless anger.

He already understood that the images before him were like the holographic projections on the future island. They could only be seen but not touched, and the other party could neither hear nor see him.

The father and son, one big and one small, sat on the steps, hugging their knees, their eyes fixed on the cobblestone street in front of them, and asked quietly,
"Where are my father and mother?"

"I haven't seen my mother for several days."

He didn't dare to look at his father, and he didn't even dare to hear the answer from his father.

The man didn't say anything, just staring at the ground in silence for a long time.
"Your mother. She's dead."

Xiong's heart suddenly tightened and he felt an inexplicable pain, as if being tightly grasped by a hand. His left arm went numb and the soles of his feet began to twitch involuntarily.

"You said... Mother..."

"Um"

The father clenched his fists tightly, forcing a small smile on his face as he looked at the bear, but his hot tears and snot could not stop flowing.
"Living in such a hell, perhaps death is the only way to escape.!"

“Mother. Uwaa ...

Finally, the bear couldn't help crying out loud.

"Why! Why is it so, Father? Why do we have to suffer like this!"

Luffy stood behind the two of them, leaning against the wall with his head down, his face hidden in the shadow of his hat brim so his expression couldn't be seen.

Watching the bear's father frantically trying to comfort the bear, he performed the legendary Nika Dance for him, which symbolizes liberation.

Luffy just stood there quietly, not saying a word.

Until the Tianlong people heard the noise and came over, and shot and killed Xiong's father in front of him in dissatisfaction.

What the hell is this!!
Luffy gritted his teeth and clenched his fists, the veins on the back of his hands exposed.

Soon, the scene changed and he came to another place.

West Sea, Valley of the Gods.

A hunting game of the Celestial Dragons is about to begin, and their prey is——

Natives and slaves!

Luffy found that he could only see what was happening around the bear. Once he left the bear, everything became blurry.

Soon, the hunting game began, and everyone fled for their lives. Despair and fear enveloped the entire area.

Luffy continued to follow Kuma's footsteps. Among the crowd that had lost hope and faith, two people bravely stood up.

"There's no point in hiding! There can't be any survivors in this game!"

"If we want to survive, we must escape from this island completely!"

A man with a purple afro standing on a stone pillar organizing the crowd immediately caught Luffy's attention.

"Hey! Could it be that you are!?"

"Is that Little Eva?!!"

Luffy looked at the young Ivankov and exclaimed in surprise.

In addition to Ivankov, there was another girl named Ginny.

Soon, the two spread the information that there were Blue Dragon Fruit and Meatball Fruit on the island, and planned to seize the Meatball Fruit to save themselves.

"Let me be the bait. I'm bigger, so I should be able to survive longer than the others."

Xiong Hanhan stood up with a smile and took the initiative to become the bait to attract everyone's attention.

Just as the trio began to move with the crowd of prey, a loud noise was heard from the east side of the island.

Luffy frowned and looked over, running after the bear.

It seems like someone attacked here.

No one would take a group of slaves who became prey seriously, and this just became an opportunity for the bears. Coupled with the sudden attack, the slaves' actions went unexpectedly smoothly.

While fleeing and avoiding the attacks, they moved towards the center of the island.

Soon, they actually took advantage of the chaos to steal two devil fruits that were guarded by few guards.

"Yeah! Got it!"

Ivankov held the Blue Dragon Fruit in both hands and raised it excitedly, and Xiong also took out the Meatball Fruit from the wooden box.

"Good job!"

Luffy became excited and couldn't help but feel subconsciously happy for them just by watching them.

And when the fruit is about to be eaten.

"Mamamama~"

"Finally found it, bring it to me, kid!"

A woman with long pink hair and a sexy figure suddenly appears!
Charlotte Linlin grabbed the Blue Dragon Fruit and knocked Ivankov away. She turned her head and glanced at the bear who was holding the Meatball Fruit with a panicked look on his face.

"That was close! We almost got eaten. Give me this too!" "Stop! You bastard! This is their trump card for escaping!"

Luffy yelled in anger.

He didn't recognize Charlotte Lingling, as she looked and looked very different.

Luffy clenched his fists and rushed forward, and as expected, he passed through Linlin's body again.

"Damn it! I almost forgot I can't even touch them!"

Luffy gritted his teeth in anger and could only watch helplessly.

"Don't hesitate, bear cub! Eat it now, even if you're the only one saved!"

"I I know!"

At Ivankov's shout, the bear reacted quickly and took a big bite of the devil fruit.

"cut!"

Charlotte Lingling looked unhappy and sneered through gritted teeth.

"Great!!"

Ivankov jumped up excitedly.

At this time, the accident happened again.

boom!
A tall, gray-haired man knocked the bear away.

"As a Bakhanian, your only choices are death and slavery."

Saint Satan leaned on his crutches and looked down at the bear lying on the ground with indifference.

“Aaaaaaaaaa!!”

As one crisis after another arose, Luffy became extremely anxious, his teeth chattering.

"This is so strange. Some people are born high and mighty, while others are born to suffer a lifetime of pain."

The bear lying on the ground struggled to support his body, gritted his teeth and looked up at Saint Satan.
"What's the point of living like this? This world is just too weird!!"

boom! !

Suddenly there was a loud noise and several figures rushed in.

Saint Satan's attention was instantly drawn over, and Luffy also looked back at the same time.

"Hahaha Roger! I'll send you to jail today!"

"Stop talking nonsense, Garp! Come on!"

boom! !

The two men laughed heroically, clenched their fists and drew their swords as they rushed towards each other. The fierce collision between fists and blades created a strong wind pressure.

"grandfather?!"

"And Roger?! Wait, is that Ace's father?!"

Luffy's eyes widened in shock.

Soon, several strange yet familiar figures appeared, and Luffy was so shocked that his jaw hit the ground.
"White beard?!"

"And Kaido?! Golden Lion?! Wait, wait, what on earth happened here?!"

Luffy held his face with his hands, his eyes were full of stars and his mind was almost spinning.

"Run, Bear! Now!"

But soon, as Kuma activated his ability to take Ivankov and Ginny away from the battlefield, Luffy disappeared from his sight.

In the South China Sea, in the Kingdom of Solbe, a small sailboat was anchored on the southern coast. Ivankov stood at the stern, smiling and waving at the two people on the shore.

"Goodbye Bear! And Ginny, you must live a good life!"

"Well! Goodbye little Eva!"

"goodbye!"

The boat slowly sailed away, and after saying goodbye to Ivankov, Bear and Ginny returned to a dilapidated abandoned church.

"From today on, this is our new home. Oh my!"

Ginny tiptoed around in a circle, stumbled, and fell into the bear's arms.

"Hehehe, bear cub."

Ginny put her arms around the bear's neck and looked up at the somewhat embarrassed boy with a smile.

"Did you hear what little Eva said? We are going to live happily here."

"Ginny, I, I, that"

Xiong, who was four years younger than her, was not yet at the age of falling in love. He was just a little shy about the relationship between the opposite sex and was a little overwhelmed by Ginny's teasing.

Looking at the bear who was finally freed from hell, Luffy finally showed a relieved smile on his face.

Relying on their strong physique, chopping wood or hunting are not big problems for bears, and they do not need to worry about their livelihood.

Once again, the simple and honest bear was bullied by children of the same age, and the hot-tempered Ginny never let him endure it silently, but instead came to his house with a wooden stick to stand up for him.

In this way, the two lived here together for five years, and Xiong grew up and became a pastor.

Those living in the southern part of the Kingdom of Solbe are all poor people who have been expelled from the kingdom. There are often sick people who cannot afford to see a doctor and come to the church to pray.

The bear would use his ability to bounce back their pains. The patients were amazed at the bear's magical abilities, and gradually, more and more people came to see the bear.

Only Ginny knew that these pop-up pains would not disappear, but would gather together and be borne by the bear alone once a week.

Seeing the bear lying in bed in pain, Ginny felt as if her heart was being tightly gripped.

She would redden her eyes and scold Xiong not to do it again, but the response she got was always the same.

"God gave me this body so that I can help everyone better. It's okay, Ginny. I'm big enough that I can live much longer than others."

Xiong always said this with a silly smile.

Luffy sat aside, feeling a little unhappy.

idiot!

This guy must be an idiot!

If we want everyone to be able to afford to eat meat, no, to be able to see a doctor, we should definitely beat that bastard king to death!
Although Luffy's idea is also immature, if Reiner were there, he would definitely agree with it. No matter whether the next king is good or not, it is definitely right to defeat this rotten one first.

In the bright living room, Reiner and the others were all gathered together, while Luffy, immersed in the memory of the bear, was lying on a long table behind the sofa.

While he was absorbing the bear's memories, Reiner and the others also learned some information from Vegapunk.

"Did they continue to live there? Then how did Kuma go out to sea? I remember Kuma was once one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea."

Hearing this, Nami continued to ask.

"Because of a policy of the King of the Kingdom of Solbe."

Vegapunk moistened his throat, put down his coffee cup and said:

"He wanted to reduce the poor who could not pay the taxes and were expelled to the southern half of the country into slavery. With fewer civilians, he could reduce the tribute of gold from heaven."

"Nani?!"

"This damn beast!"

Sanji and the others cursed angrily with anger in their eyes.

Vegapunk continued:

"Bear and Ginny led the people in a rebellion and were eventually imprisoned. Not long after that, Dorag's newly formed Self-Defense Force arrived in the Kingdom of Solbe and liberated it."

"Xiong met Ivankov again and took Ginny with him to join Dorag's team. Since then, the Revolutionary Army was officially established, and Ginny became a cadre of the Eastern Army."

“So that’s how it is”

“I didn’t expect that bears had such a past.”

"Woo woo woo~ This guy looks so cold, but he's actually a super gentle man, bastard!"

Franky, the tough guy, burst into tears, covering his nose with a tissue and crying loudly.

While the others were immersed in the bear's past experiences, Bonnie's eyes turned cold, and she grabbed Vegapunk's collar and asked:
"Even though I don't even know about these experiences! But this has nothing to do with him losing consciousness! What happened afterwards?!"

"Yeah, and how come he joined the Revolutionary Army and became a pirate and one of the Shichibukai?"

Nami couldn't help but be curious.

"Behind"

Vegapunk blinked, looked at the blade on his neck, and two lines of tears flowed out.

"Don't push me anymore, Bonnie. I promised Bear that I really can't tell you what happens next."

"What a joke! What you've been saying has nothing to do with my father losing consciousness, you bastard!"

Bonnie suddenly got angry.

Even Usopp and Chopper began to support her.

"Don't keep people on suspense at the critical moment!"

"That's it!"

Zizi!

Just at this moment, a noisy sound suddenly came from the communicator next to Vegapunk's ear.

"Master, we have packed everything we need to take with us. We want to be able to leave at any time, but..."

"What happened Lilith?"

Vegapunk frowned and asked hurriedly.

"A warship is approaching, bearing the World Government's emblem, and the Seraph of the Institute."

“Everything is gone!!”
