Chapter 168 A Long Talk (Part 1)

"He will always be like that. Even when we were besieged by the 'Golden Lion' and all of us were determined to die, he still had a smile on his face." Lei Li sighed.

"Did Lord Raleigh go to [Rogge Town]?" Lei Fa suddenly asked.

"No, what are you going to do, watch him die?" Lei Li shook his head, "Once he has made a decision, it cannot be changed, no matter who persuades him or tries to persuade him, it is useless Yes, even if his decision seems ridiculous to us..."

"Then what do you think, Sir Raleigh, about what Roger said before his death?" Refa asked.

"Did you mean 'One.Piece'?" Reilly said.

"Ah."

"In fact, he told me about this matter before. He naturally has his reasons for doing this. Whether I agree or disagree, I will not stop him." Rayleigh shook his head.

"Speaking of which, I have always had a question that I wanted to ask someone from the 'Roger Pirates', but it was a pity that it was not convenient to ask when I saw Lord Roger last time. I wonder if Lord Raleigh would be willing to explain it to me What about it?" Lei Fa thought for a while and asked deeply.

"Let's talk about it first." Raleigh made a gesture of invitation.

"Well, it's like this... When I was young, my views on pirates were probably the same, nothing more than villains, beasts and the like, and this probably has something to do with my growing environment. However, after all these years I have grown from Judging from the information obtained from various channels, although the vast majority of pirates are not good people, they are not all heinous villains."

"From what I've learned, the 'Roger Pirates' should be one of the few pirates who haven't done anything harmful..."

Raleigh nodded, "Yes, actually I agree with the name 'Roger's Adventure Group'. In the beginning, we were just a group of people who didn't want to be bound by the rules and wanted to explore the endless sea. This brings us together. But as a navy, you must know that the world government does not allow any adventure groups to exist, especially people who explore some things that the world government regards as taboo, and they will be regarded as big enemy."

"However, senior Raleigh must also be aware that the vast majority of pirates are not like the 'Roger Pirates' whose main purpose is to go to sea for adventure..." Lei Fa pondered.

"I don't deny this either. For example, the 'Golden Lion' is not so much a pirate as an ambitious man, and Bundy Ward is also the same type of person as the 'Golden Lion'. To achieve the goal at any cost, even at the expense of countless lives."

"'Whitebeard' is quite special. He is lonely by nature, but he longs for a 'home'. His pirate group is his home. While growing the family, he is also constantly fighting for the family. ...The strongest man is actually just a poor man."

"As for the other pirates, although we have not dealt with all the pirates, but as you said, most of the pirates we met are not good people." Speaking of this, Raleigh laughed at himself , "Of course, I'm not qualified to talk about them, and I'm not a good person myself."

"Since Lord Raleigh agrees with me, what do you think of the 'Era of Great Pirates'?" Lei Fa continued to ask without pausing.

"Huh?" Hearing Lei Fa's question, Lei Li took a deep look at him, "Do you mean that Roger's decision will bring disaster to the world?"

"Isn't it? Even if only half of these newborn pirates are beasts, there are countless ordinary people who have suffered because of this. Do you think so?"

"Ugh--"

Raleigh wanted to say something, but in the end he let out a long sigh.

"The reason why I ask this is not to attack Lord Roger or Lord Raleigh on a moral level... You may not believe it, but before Lord Roger was executed, I had already guessed what might happen later , I also guessed that His Excellency Roger may have other plans, but I did not choose to tell the old man of the Warring States Period or the World Government..."

"Oh?" Now even 'Fisherman' and Xia Qi looked at Lei Fa in surprise.

"Since you guessed it, why didn't you report it?" Lei Li was surprised. "Although your military rank is not high, but in your capacity, if you choose to tell Zhan Guo, it shouldn't be difficult to stop Roger's plan..."

"Because, not only did I guess His Excellency Roger's plan, but I also wanted to understand what his ultimate goal was. I couldn't convince myself to stop him... Indeed, for this, many people may suffer for it, but most of the time, nothing can be broken. ..."

"If Roger hadn't died, he would probably be friends with you. Although you are a generation younger than him, he..." Raleigh shook his head, and couldn't help smiling when he recalled Roger.

"That is to say, my guess is right?" Refa asked.

"En." Lei Li nodded, did not say anything, but confirmed Lei Fa's statement.

"Huh..." Lei Fa took a long breath, "Thank you, Your Excellency Lei Li, for clarifying my doubts. This is also a knot in my heart. To be honest, when I made the decision, I was really tormented in my heart, because No matter what you choose, the impact will be huge.”

"But you made the right choice in the end, didn't you? This proves that we are the same kind of people, Roger, me, and you." Reilly laughed.

"Maybe." Lei Fa was noncommittal.

"But I really didn't expect that, as the adopted son of the Warring States Period, you would have the same thoughts as us. After all, the Warring States Period is the most disciplined person..."

"For the same thing, different people will have different opinions. I have personally contacted those bastards who are no longer considered human beings, but it is very difficult to be without resentment... It's just that most people are affected by fixed thinking. Just thinking about those outrageous things."

"I forgot, but you have the experience of being imprisoned in the 'Deep Sea Belt Prison' for offending the 'Dragon People'." Raleigh remembered.

"This is just one of the things." Lei Fa said, "In addition, Mr. Lei Li said that we are the same kind of people, but it is not completely correct..."

"Oh?"

"If it were me, I wouldn't just start like this and then let it go. The advent of the 'Great Pirate Era' may indeed give birth to people who can change the future, but who knows how long it will take? Five years? Ten Years? Or 20 years?"

"Do you want to..."

"Let's stop this topic." Lei Fa suddenly raised his wine glass.
