He had an unyielding look in his eyes, a few freckles on his face, and a big band-aid on his forehead, which made him look quite skinny at first glance.
Noticing Eric looking at him, Ace turned around and bowed solemnly, "Hello, I've disturbed your meal."
"Hahaha, you are such a polite little guy. Do you want to eat together?"
"Can you?" He suddenly showed a child's happy expression, as if he suddenly realized something, then withdrew his expression and refused: "Thank you for the invitation, I want to go back to find my brother."
"Really? What a good brother."
"Speaking of it, the naval hero Lieutenant General Garp seems to be from the Kingdom of Goa, and reading the newspaper, it seems that he often comes back for vacation." Chiron, who holds many positions such as military advisor and lookout, suddenly asked, "Lieutenant General Garp When will you come back next time? Do you locals know?"
Ace was obviously taken aback when he heard Garp's name.
"Ugh..." Maginot showed a thoughtful expression, "Not necessarily. Sometimes Lieutenant General Garp suddenly runs away from work, and you can't say when he will come back next time."
"Is it really appropriate for a lieutenant general to do this..." Everyone was speechless.
"Brother, what do you want to do with that old man or with Lieutenant General Garp?" Although Ace wanted to pretend to be cute and speak, but when he appeared on his face...the expression that seemed to be smiling and evil wrinkled together, which made Ace Everyone couldn't help but laugh.
"Ara, kid, you need to practice your facial expression control. This will scare the little girl."
"Yes, this guy is a master of expressions, saying all kinds of scary things with a bright smile."
"I'll kill you~"
"See? That's it..."
"Ah..." Ace had a dumbfounded expression on his face.
"We don't want to find Lieutenant General Garp, we just don't want to meet him." Eric answered Ace's question.
"Don't want to meet Lieutenant General Garp? Why?"
"We are pirates, how could we take the initiative to find the navy?"
"Are you pirates?" Maginot and Ace were surprised, "You don't look like that."
"There is no bad person in this world who has the words: I am a bad person written on his face."
"But, you..." Maginot suddenly got stuck. She didn't know Eric's name yet.
"Oh, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Darren Eric. I am the captain of this pirate group. They are my reliable companions."
Everyone else nodded.
"Eric-kun seems to be very kind. He takes the initiative to help ordinary people who are attacked by pirates."
"There's no other way. Since I'm wanted by the navy, I have no choice but to become a pirate, hahaha..." Eric didn't want to meet anyone so he introduced his past and started fighting.
"So, we definitely don't want to meet Lieutenant General Garp, who even chases the Pirate King Gol D. Roger everywhere."
"I really want to meet the hero Garp and fight against him once." Esdeath said with a slight regret.
Hearing his father's name being mentioned, Ace couldn't tell whether it was anger or some other emotion that flashed through Ace's heart, but he still wanted to know more about Gol D. Roger's deeds.
Finally, he couldn't help it anymore and asked, "Have you met the Pirate King Gol D. Roger?"
Everyone except Eric shook their heads.
Ace's eyes were fixed on Eric, wanting to hear but not wanting to hear that when people used to talk about One Piece, they mostly used angry curses.
"When I was five years old, I watched the execution of the Pirate King Gol D. Roger." Eric turned his head and faced Ace. "I don't know anything else, but he died as a king. of."
"However, most people are reviling Gol D. Roger, saying that he ushered in the era of great pirates and caused countless families to be destroyed."
"Hahahaha, don't listen to those guys. They neither work hard to protect their families nor work hard to change the world and make it a better place!"
"They are just throwing the blame for their misfortune onto a dead person, so that no one can say that they are not working hard, and no one can say that they are not correct. It is just a curse from those who are drifting with the trend and are powerless!"
"..." Ace's eyes widened. No one had ever said that to him before, and his blood felt like it was boiling.
"You have a younger brother, right? Only by training yourself well can you protect him. Things you saw when you were a child will be viewed in a different light when you grow up."
"Thank you..." Ace bowed again, this time at a wider angle than before.
Then ran away.
Da Vinci said curiously: "You actually said so many words. This is not like the captain."
"Gol D. Roger must have something to do with him." Esdeath glanced in the direction Ace left, "Otherwise, he wouldn't care so much about One Piece."
"Yeah." Chitong nodded as she ate the delicious food.
It seems that more than one person can tell, everyone on our ship is full of human beings.
"I don't know either. Well, let's eat first! Escorting ordinary people to the East China Sea will finally put an end to my worries."

The system also confirms the completion of the task.
…
Eric looked at the amount of money he held: 2.4167532 million Baileys, not enough.
There is no other way, let’s use this Devil Fruit obtained from the auction to summon the newcomer.
Eric took Esdeath, Kuang San, and Chi Tong to the deserted jungle.
"..." Under the attention of several people, Eric really couldn't say a summons that was too shameful.
"Come on, newcomer!"
The summoning array erupted with dazzling white light again.
"Is this the Kingdom of Heaven? Yeah!"
Adding a strange "um" at the end of a sentence makes you look like a fool who is asking and answering himself.
His yellow hair is tied into a high ponytail, with long bangs covering his left eye, and a strange mantra of "well".
"Deidara..."
"Huh? Do you know my name? It seems that this is not the kingdom of heaven. Where is this place? Hmm."
