Chapter 4: Chapter 4: The Sorrow of a Virgin Battle and the Glory It Carries
Safeng rushed forward to fight with the pirate who he thought looked a little weak, but reality gave him a hard slap in the face and made him dizzy.
Safeng jumped up and raised his little arm and punched the pirate's head with all his strength.
He was fully expecting that this time he would be successful, and even if he failed, it wouldn't be a big deal.
However, he underestimated the difference in strength between a five-year-old child and a grown man, and this was a pirate who had experienced many hardships and fought his way from the four seas to the Grand Line.
The pirate just raised his right hand and slapped Safeng in the face.
Then there was a crisp sound, and a small figure flew out.
With a "bang," a part of the side of the opponent's pirate ship was smashed to pieces by a small black shadow. When the dust cleared, Safeng's figure crawled up among the broken wood.
At this time, Safeng was in a miserable state, covering his right hand with his left hand. It turned out that when the pirate's slap came towards him, he hurriedly retracted his right hand that was hitting the pirate and blocked it in front of him.
Although he blocked it, his right hand was still broken, and his body flew backwards and crashed into the side of the ship due to the slap from the opponent.
Safeng covered his right arm and gasped as he looked at the pirate who blew him away. Only then did he realize that this seemingly weak pirate (in fact, he was indeed the weakest in this pirate group) was also very strong.
"I still underestimated how dangerous this world is. I'm just a small supporting character who traveled through time, but I still arrogantly thought I had the halo of the protagonist. There is no free lunch in the world. Even so, I will never give up. Even if I don't have the halo of the protagonist, I will work 10 times or 100 times harder to create my own glory and honor. There is no one in the world who is born strong. I will work hard to become a strong man to protect my loved ones and the Whitebeard Pirates. I will never let my dad die like in TV. I will protect Whitebeard's glory, and no one can trample on it!"
Safeng first laughed at himself and then said firmly to himself!
"Come on, even if I can't do it now, I will protect the pride and glory of the Whitebeard Pirates in the future! I will not fall in a place like this again!"
Safeng roared and rushed forward with his intact left hand raised. When he reached the pirate, the pirate was clearly still in shock, because he thought that the child who was slapped away by him should have died in the previous blow, but he didn't expect that not only did he not die, but he also rushed up with a seriously injured body.
In such shock, he was hit in the stomach by Safeng's solid punch. It was not that Safeng wanted to hit him in the stomach, but it was a miracle that Safeng could stand at all. It was a blessing for him that a five-year-old child did not die after such a heavy blow.
But he still got up. All this was just for the persistence in his heart. He rushed to the dazed pirate and used the last strength in his body to swing his left fist and hit him in the stomach!
Although he was only a 5-year-old child, Safeng had a firm belief in his heart. He used all his strength to punch the dazed pirate, causing him to bend over with his hands on his stomach.
His whole shape looked like a cooked lobster. After throwing this punch, Safeng lost consciousness and slowly fell backwards.
At this moment, Marco hugged the unconscious Safeng, but he couldn't stop smiling. However, with his dead eyes, this smile was not very good. Whitebeard, who was far away on the Moby Dick, also smiled with relief when he saw this scene...
Safeng slowly opened his eyes. The world in front of him was no different from what he saw when he first came to this world. The ceiling was still wooden, and the room was still empty except for a bed, a table, and a few stools.
But Safeng smiled because he was sure that he was still in the Whitebeard Pirates, in this "big family" that gave him a warm feeling. He didn't think that he was "dead" like he had worried, and then he would not be in this home that gave him happiness and a second life when he woke up.
All of this was just his thinking and worrying. Now seeing everything familiar in the room, he felt good at this moment. Then he closed his eyes with a smile on his face and fell asleep!
When Safeng woke up again, two days had passed. After all, his five-year-old body had gone through such a high-intensity battle.
Although the process only lasted a few minutes, he was injured first and then relied on his mental willpower to deliver his strongest punch at that time. Therefore, his highly tense nerves needed two days of rest to recover.
After waking up, Safeng walked towards the deck naturally.
Because he knew that at this time everyone would be drinking and chatting on the deck.
Sure enough, he heard everyone laughing before he reached the deck. Hearing these sounds, Safeng smiled knowingly and walked over. His right hand was broken, so he had to use a bandage to hang it.
Everyone saw him walking over and said, "Yo, our little king of power is here, hahahahaha."
"What? Don't talk nonsense. He's obviously a little man. Hahahaha."
"...."
When Safeng came over, all kinds of teasing came out from this group of cute pirates (in Safeng's eyes, they were just a group of cute people, but not in the eyes of others).
"Hahaha, you bunch of bastards, stop talking. Look at our little Safeng; his face is already red. Besides, when you were so young, could you rush up and knock down a pirate? He's been lying down for a few days, though, hahaha."
At this time, Sachi came over and said something, and it was this sentence that made the pirates laugh even louder.
Originally, Safeng's face turned red, and he couldn't say anything, but after hearing what Saqi said, Safeng couldn't help but yell, "Sachi, shut up. Wait, when I grow up, I will beat you all up so that your faces are covered with peach blossoms. Otherwise, you won't know why the flowers are so red!"
Safeng was defending himself loudly, but the pirates still laughed heartily without caring.
As they were talking, Safeng also laughed and drank juice and sang with them (because Safeng was still young, no one allowed him to drink).
In fact, he still wanted to drink very much, but since everyone said so, he could only go along with everyone and drink again when he grew up.
After playing with the others for a while, Safeng came to Whitebeard and said to him, "Dad, I'm sorry that your stupid son made you worry this time. I won't be so reckless next time. I will make you proud of me in the future. I will definitely protect the glory and honor of the Whitebeard Pirates."
Safeng shouted the last sentence with all his strength.
"Kuhahahaha, sons, I'm very happy today. Let's play as much as we can."
After hearing what Safeng said, Whitebeard lifted up Safeng's 4-foot-tall, burly body and laughed.
Safeng was on Whitebeard's shoulder and looked at the people below, and his heart was filled with ripples. Looking at this man who treated him as a son, he was extremely moved.
In his two lives, he had never experienced the feeling of sitting on his father's shoulders, let alone the shoulders of a great man like Whitebeard. At this moment, Safeng was so moved that tears blurred his eyes...
"Ah..."
Safeng endured the pain in his body, but his heart was extremely excited because at this moment he was getting a tattoo, a tattoo of the mark of the Whitebeard Pirates, and also carrying the name of Whitebeard and taking on the responsibility of protecting the glory and honor of the Whitebeard Pirates.
When Safeng first joined the Whitebeard Pirates, he told Marco that he wanted to get a tattoo of the Whitebeard Pirates' mark, but Marco smiled and told him that it was not the right time.
Yesterday, Safeng told Whitebeard that he wanted to get a tattoo of the Whitebeard Pirates' mark, and Whitebeard smiled and said to him, "Kuhahahaha, of course you can. I believe that you—my son—can carry the glory of Whitebeard."
So Safeng went to get the tattoo the next day.
"Little Safeng, just bear with it; it will be over soon," said the tattooed Gru to Safeng, who was enduring the pain.
Safeng gritted his teeth and said, "It's okay. I am the man who will carry my father's glory!"
The tattoo was completed quickly. Safeng lay down for a few minutes and then stood up.
On his back and chest at the heart, there was a black background with two white thigh bones crossed, a skull at the intersection, and a crescent-shaped beard under the nose of the skull. Under the beard was a face with teeth showing and laughing. The whole tattoo looked very mysterious and domineering!
Safeng took a look, nodded, and said to Gru with satisfaction, "Thank you, Gru. Hahahaha, that's great. Okay, I'm leaving. As a man who has to carry my father's glory, I have to become stronger. I'm going to train now. Goodbye, Gru."
After that, he went to train in a hurry.
"Hahaha, what a strong little man," Gru exclaimed.
