Starfish native, Mary Joa.

"call----"

"It's time!"

The figarland clan area of ​​the land of the gods.

In a luxurious villa with a large green manor.

A red-haired young man nearly two meters tall was touching the end of the hilt of the long knife at his waist.

Sharp eyes looked out through the huge floor-to-ceiling windows toward the blue sky outside.

This person is a former intern at the Roger Pirates.

Shanks.

Figarand Shanks!

He had lived here for five years at this time, and he was exactly twenty years old this year.

At the beginning, Mihawk came to practice sword skills from time to time.

But since Mihawk was ordered to go to Wano Country that year, he has never come back.

So Shanks can only face those stewards and servants who are extremely respectful every day.

There are also the Tianlong people who were disgusted from the bottom of his heart with various postures and words.

At first, he felt extremely painful and even tried to escape.

But every time, they are brought back by the guardians of the periphery, namely the knights of the Holy Land Guardians and the man in black from CIPHER POL-5...

This made him feel desperate for a moment.

But Shanks is Shanks after all.

His experience of following Roger's Pirates across the world has prevented him from being knocked down by temporary despair.

He began to force himself to adapt to this place, while thinking about ways to get out of this place.

Shanks believes that because he is too young and has too weak, he cannot escape successfully no matter what.

So even if Mihawk doesn't come.

He also worked hard to practice swordsmanship and physical skills in the manor regardless of wind and rain.

He ignored the strange eyes of the people around him, and even the sarcasm of some celestial dragons.

But obviously those celestial dragons don’t stop talking.

They were already resentful because they ordered not to leave the land of the gods for their entire lives.

Now another small beast was born that was said to have been brought back from outside.

I am also doing exercises that only inferior people can do...exercise?

This caused some extremely bad-minded people to take out their own famous swords and swords.

Or a pistol with various gemstones and gold.

Hold on to the idea that as long as you don’t beat someone to death, there will be no trouble.

Unscrupulously swung Shanx and shot.

Shanks was nervous for a moment.

I thought that my counterattack would cause greater trouble, so I could only passively dodge and escape.

But when he gradually thought that he was also a celestial dragon.

Since the other party can attack him, no one will stop him.

Then it will be the same if you call it back by yourself.

that's all.

Shanks, who was less than sixteen years old at the time, beat dozens of adult Tianlong people holding swords and guns with bare hands.

By the way, I also seized a knife that I particularly like.

That is, this Western sword called "Griffin" is on his waist.

The advantage of this "battle" is that for a long time, no one in the Tianlong people dared to come and disturb him.

The reason for saying this.

Because later, some young people who were said to be graduates from the Tianlong Holy Academy appeared in this land of the gods.

That is, the Tianlong people who failed the graduation assessment of Tianlong Holy Academy twice.

This reminded Shanks of the scene when he saw a group of Tianlong children being forcibly taken away.

I secretly thought that these children came back when they grew up.

But these Tianlong people who dropped out of school cannot accept that they will never be able to leave here again in their lifetime.

This leads to a state of mind that is very excited at the beginning.

In the middle of the night, they often heard their despair wailing towards the moon plate in the night sky.

Or all kinds of fierce quarrels.

Shanks also discovered that these Tianlong people who had studied from Tianlong Holy Academy for several years looked down on those older generations of Tianlong people.

Even if they are their own parents and their ancestors.

If you have a better personality, you will ignore it directly and no longer have any communication or communication. If you have a poor personality, you will either scold or hit others.

This naturally aroused the dissatisfaction of the older generation of Tianlong people.

They are also people who have been accustomed to being arrogant since childhood. How can they see younger generations so arrogant?

so.

They picked up the swords and guns they collected again and wanted to teach these ignorant bastards a lesson.

Then.

He was beaten up again.

After all, the dropouts from the Tianlong Holy Academy also received several years of education at the highest level of starfish.

The level of breathing, physical skills and sword skills is no less than that of many military captains.

The scene of the children and grandchildren ruthlessly beating their parents and grandchildren made Shanks secretly amazed and frightened.

Because he found that these people were much more ruthless than before.

Although it is not as good as killing people, it is really just a failure. There is really no one else to be "filial piety" to this level.

Too cruel!

These dropouts seem to not regard the older generation of Tianlong people as similar?

But the problem is that they did not graduate successfully, so they were destined to be the same as them for the world government.

Of course they understand this principle, but it is because of understanding that they become more angry and crazier.

Because they have seen a broader world and a life that should have been more exciting.

But there is no way, this is the cruelty of reality, and it is the rules set by Yoon Mu...

After a while, these dropouts calmed down a little.

At the same time, I also noticed Shanks who exercised at the manor every day.

There was nothing to do. They were depressed and gradually became confused as they watched Shanks' hard work day after day, day after night.

That's why he wants this?

In the eyes of these dropouts, their lives are already destined, they are just to live and wait for death in this place and waste their lives boredly.

So some people with bad minds try to provoke Shanks, trying to vent their mood by beating him and stop him from continuing.

Because it's annoying!

However, the results can be imagined, one after another, covered in bruises.

The screams came one after another in the manor over the past few days, and the other Tianlong people were stunned.

But Shanks didn't care at all, just pretending to have a high-quality competition and continued to carry out his own exercises afterwards.

By the way, practice the different schools of breathing methods you learned in the fight, and then after a test, select the most suitable breath of thunder that is consistent with you.

His behavior gradually affected many Tianlong people who had dropped out of school and began to cheer up and exercise their swordsmanship every day.

Or they may find books in their favorite fields, even though they know that the knowledge they have learned may not be used in their lifetime, they still read and research them silently.

that's all.

Some friends began to appear around Shanks. In the past few years, they trained, studied, discussed, and communicated with them...

At this moment.

I saw it in the hall behind him.

Thirteen young men and women wearing long black cloaks with noble temperament and very capable appearance, focused their firm eyes on Shanks' back.

When Shanks breathed out a long sigh, he said the four words "It's time."

Each of them had more or less obvious turbulence in their eyes.

Because today is the day when they decided to give up their identity as a dragon and leave the land of the gods to death, and even this Red Clay Continent.

They want to fight out and leaps to the sea that represents freedom!

Even if you die, it is better than being raised like a beast in this place!

"Let's go."

"For freedom!"

Shanks held the "Griffin" at his waist and turned around and showed a bright smile, as if he was full of confidence in the next action.

This also made their originally nervous mood relax inexplicably.

But the blood that had already become hot in their bodies still made them feel excited, and they shouted loudly in unison: "For freedom!

”

Haiyuanli at 3:00 a.m. on May 5, 1503.

That is the day when Monkey D. Luffy was born.

Shanks led thirteen Tianlong people who had graduated from the Tianlong Holy Academy to make a big noise in Marychoa.

They used the Holy Land Garrison and members of the CIPHER POL-5 to successfully attack the land of the gods.

Finally, he resolutely jumped out of the cliff edge of the Red Clay Continent.

Fourteen people laughed with great pleasure.

From a height of more than 6,000 meters to the vast ocean...
Chapter completed!
