It was a few days later that Allen got the news that Sakaski had lost the battle with Whitebeard.

It was a clear day and the sun was warm.

The azure sky is as clear as water, with only white clouds lingering lazily in it, reflected in the sea water, which is extremely beautiful. If a broken navy ship hadn't suddenly crashed into it, making this beautiful scenery more tragic, Allen might have

You won’t see enough.

Even from far away, he could still see many people wrapped in bandages on the ships, not to mention the ships.

There are several patches on the main mast, and the patches on the sail are like dog-skin plasters.

The ship's side was damaged in many places, and it seemed that there was a danger of capsizing at any time. Sakaski, who was standing on the bow deck, looked ugly, and his strong body under the shawl of justice was wrapped with white bandages. It looked like he should

It took quite a bit of risk.

Allen had nothing to say about this.

Akainu's spirit certainly deserves encouragement and reasoning. If he wasn't too extreme, Allen would admire this kind of person very much.

But this kind of behavior now, Allen thinks it is stupid. People should know themselves. A guy as powerful as Whitebeard, with the current strength of Sakaski, there is no comparison at all.

If it were ten years later, maybe there would still be capital to try.

Of course, these things only flashed in his mind for a moment. Allen would not deliberately mock Akainu. As long as the other party did not cause trouble for him, he would not have the leisure to look at the other party's embarrassment.

Sakaski, who was standing on the bow of the ship, seemed to feel something, and looked at where Allen was. His resolute eyes suddenly became intense, as if there were flames burning inside.

Clenching his fists, Sakaski felt quite uneasy in his heart. It was especially embarrassing for Allen to see him in such a mess.

You know, in the battle with the Whitebeard Pirates, he basically did not play any role. The record of seriously injuring Jozi and injuring Marco was nothing in his eyes, otherwise he would not do it again in the future.

Always chasing white beard.

What he didn't expect was that Whitebeard's strength was far beyond his imagination, even though Whitebeard was seriously injured.

He failed without any surprise.

Defeat is nothing, after all, he is just a lieutenant general now, and Whitebeard has the title of the strongest man in the world, but after the defeat, it is a bit embarrassing for Allen to see this embarrassing scene.

If Allen mocked him a few more words, Sakaski would feel unbearable when he thought of that scene.

What surprised him was that Allen didn't seem to have such an idea at all. The man just nodded at him and turned around and left.

He nodded to himself?

The sun rises from the west today? Sakaski is a little unbelievable. Based on his understanding of this person in the past, he can just laugh at himself for a few words. He actually nodded to himself. This is somewhat... He can't fix it.

Got it.

For a moment, there was some confusion in the wind.

Allen didn't care about this. Of course he hated Akainu, but he still admired his courage. Apart from appearing a little brainless, there was nothing wrong with him. Didn't he get away from Whitebeard?

, this alone is worthy of admiration.

Nodding is not turning an enemy into a friend, but a recognition of this behavior. As for what Akainu will think, it has nothing to do with him.

Soon after Sakaski's arrival, Allen left the G-1 Naval Base with his ship. Rosinandi had already gone to the North Sea to work as an undercover agent. Soon, he would also go to the North Sea, with the task of taking Doverland away.

Brother Ming caught him back.

…

…

North Sea.

a certain island.

A long time ago, there was a country on this impoverished island, but since it was unable to pay the heavenly gold, the entire country was listed as a non-member of the World Government and was no longer protected by the navy. The country has not become rich because of this.

, but became poorer.

The increase in pirates has made it increasingly difficult to survive here.

A certain pirate invasion, because they did not grab enough wealth, burned the city here, making the already poor country even worse.

Countless people were displaced and the place was in a mess.

Some people chose to risk their lives and escape from this little-known island, but it soon sank into the endless sea. Many more people did not even have the courage or chance to escape.

Not everyone can build a sailable ship, and if you want to go to other islands, you not only need a ship, but you also need sufficient navigation knowledge. These are simply not something ordinary people can do.

Over time, many people died because there was not enough food.

A place very close to the mountains and forests.

There was a scrawny woman in ragged clothes and a five or six-year-old child, sitting in the shadow of the dilapidated building with lifeless eyes. They were surrounded by the same people, both men and women, but it could be seen that they all

He is young and middle-aged, with no children or elderly people.

The only child is this five or six-year-old boy who cannot identify his gender.

Someone's eyes were secretly looking at the child, and there was a trace of drool at the corner of his lips, which was very dazzling on the dirty face. He glanced at the child, causing the leader of the group to turn his attention.

This is a middle-aged man who looks to be in his forties or fifties. In fact, he is only in his early thirties. However, hunger has taken away his spirit and made him lose his complexion. Even the hair on his head has dried up into a pile.

That's too much.

There was no life in his eyes, but he was different from the man with drooling mouth and greedy eyes. At least, he was still a human being, not a man-eating beast.

Moving his body slightly, he patted the woman on the shoulder, and when she turned her head, he said to her: "Stop taking this child with you. Not only is it useless for her to follow us, she will also drag us down. Food is getting more and more."

The harder it is to find, the less likely we are to give precious food to useless people.”

His voice was weak but could not be rejected.

The woman looked at him and finally nodded: "Okay."

"Take her to the mountains and forests over there and let her fend for herself. If she can survive..." the man said here and said no more.

It's just hypocrisy, and it's not a waste of energy. In the nearby mountains and forests, they have already plundered all the edible things. Now there is a dry forest. How can a child be left there?

Still alive.

The woman said nothing, stood up silently, took the child next to her who didn't know what was going on, and walked slowly towards the woods over there.

When the two of them were a little further away, the man said to the drooling man: "I know you are hungry, we are all the same, but you must not eat people, otherwise I will kill you first."

He also had a child. He killed his child because someone wanted to take it away and eat it, but he could not save the child. Since then, he has set a bottom line for himself, that is, he must never

eat human.

He used to be over two meters tall and extremely strong, but now he looks like a stick, but he is also a bit taller than the others, so at least the few people around him need to rely on him.

"What's the point of insisting on this now? We're going to die soon!" Even if the man who was drooling just retorted, his voice was weak, but the anger in his eyes could be seen.

The man did not explain anything, but said: "If you don't want to abide by my rules, you can choose to leave. No one will force you." After that, he continued to rest and maintain his strength so that he could cope with various unexpected situations. What he just said

Talking so many words actually cost him a lot of effort.

The drooling man remained silent, but in the end he did not choose to leave.

As long as he is alone, let alone go out to look for food, it is better not to be regarded as food by others. At this time, everyone needs to work together to survive.

It's a pity for the little girl. I heard that the child's flesh is very tender.

While they were talking, the woman had already walked into the mountain forest with her child. The dry trees and bushes around her were like demons, which made people panic.

After walking here, the little girl finally realized something was wrong.

"Mom, where are we going? Mom?"

The woman didn't speak, but pushed the little girl away, turned around and left.

The little girl was stunned, but she quickly reacted, ran over with all her strength, and grabbed the woman's clothes.

Crying: "Mom, wait, don't leave me, please."

The woman said calmly: "Don't follow me."

"No, mom, I want to be with mom, please don't leave me alone."

"Because you are of no use, you only waste things and can't bring anything to everyone, so no one will need you."

The little girl's eyes widened and tears fell from her eyes: "Even mom, you... mom, you don't need me anymore?"

The woman didn't answer, but turned and left, leaving only the little girl's back.

Gradually disappeared.

The little girl burst into tears. After a while, she staggered towards the direction where her mother disappeared. She thought about it. If she could become a person that others needed, would her mother not abandon her?

Walking out of the dry mountain forest, there was a dry land outside, with yellow scenes everywhere, but the little girl still didn't find her mother, and she didn't even see anyone else.

The sun is scorching the earth unscrupulously above our heads, and suffering has never let go of this place. It always comes one after another, and may not stop until no one can survive here anymore.

The little girl can't walk a little bit.

Long-term hunger has made her body very weak, and she is as thin as skin and bones, with only her big eyes standing out.

But now she felt that she didn't even have the strength to open her eyes.

finally.
