Chapter 358 Bear, Ginny, Dragon
Every time a great era comes, there is always a group of people who take the lead and stand at the forefront to enjoy the endless scenery.
Of course, Lex is not the one standing at the forefront, he is the one responsible for opening up the era and is the synonym of this era.
From the moment Lex returned his life to the world and paved the way for a new era, the name Leon Lex became completely integrated with the era of the Great Rise and became inseparable.
It’s just like how the Great Pirate Era and Roger’s name are inseparable in the original timeline.
After more than 800 years, destiny has returned to the hands of mankind. How you choose your own life is your own business, and Lex is only responsible for giving you the power to choose.
Summer, 1498 in the Haiyuan calendar.
The impact of the great war has spread to Qinghai, and the tide of the era of great rise has completely swept the world.
The Grand Route is still bleeding, and countless people are rushing towards the Grand Route at the risk of their lives. Everyone knows that the stage of the new era is there, the tremendous wealth of the new era, and the great opportunities of the new era are all there!
The West Sea, the South Sea, and the New World have separated from the World Government. The world is split into two halves. The confrontation between the two behemoths may detonate the sea again at any time. The bloody war will not become history, but will become the norm. Darkness and freedom, chaos and order exist simultaneously in this sea in such a contradictory form.
……
South Sea Thorbey Kingdom.
This is where Bartholomew Bear lives, and the pink-haired girl Ginny is also here.
Inside the church, a mysterious man in a dark green robe arrived. Xiong and Ginny looked at the mysterious man.
"Mr. Dorag, long time no see."
The bear smiled politely. He had known Mr. Dorag for a long time and he had helped him a lot. Mr. Dorag was a kind bear who always appreciated the kindness.
Monkey D. Dragon, also known as Dragon, slowly lifted the hat that covered his head, revealing his true face. The ferocious tattoo on half of his face was exposed to the sun, and he grinned:
"Sassybulida, Bear, Ginny."
Ginny was obviously smarter than the bear. She quickly invited Doragg into the inner room and prepared tea to show her hospitality.
The bear asked Drago curiously:
"Mr. Dorag, what's the matter with coming to the Kingdom of Solbe? I will definitely help you with all my strength."
The dragon glanced at Ginny who was busy, and then looked at the bear who looked sincere:
"Now that the great era has arrived and the wind of destiny is blowing across the world, the sprouts of freedom have found unprecedented fertile soil. We must do something."
Hearing Long say this, Ginny's expression changed slightly, but Bear remained calm.
After a pause, Long continued:
"I'm sure you two know that I'm now the leader of the Qinghai Self-Defense Force. The philosophy of our Self-Defense Force is to liberate Qinghai, overthrow the current corrupt world government, and establish a peaceful Qinghai without slaves and exploitation. Now we are mainly active in some non-member countries in the four seas and some kingdoms in the Grand Line. Thanks to Leon Lex's opening of a new era, our strength is growing day by day, but it also exposes some drawbacks, that is, our Self-Defense Force lacks real core strength and lacks firm and powerful freedom fighters!"
After saying that, Long stared at the changes in Xiong and Ginny's expressions. To be honest, Long himself was not sure whether Xiong and Ginny were willing to join the Self-Defense Force.
They are living well in the Kingdom of Solbe, and they are a happy couple. Who would be willing to join the Self-Defense Forces and risk their lives just because you ask them to?
The bear did not speak, neither agreed nor refused, but his flickering eyes made people know that he was thinking seriously.
Ginny spoke directly to the dragon:
"We refuse!~"
Ginny's face looked grim, and the look she showed towards the dragon changed from welcome at the beginning to resistance now.
"Xiongzai and I will not join Mr. Dorag's Self-Guard Army~! If there is anything happening in the Kingdom of Solbe, we can do our best to help and repay Mr. Dorag's kindness, but if you ask Xiongzai to do something so dangerous, I will never agree to it!~"
Ginny is very firm in her stance. The cub is everything to her, and protecting the cub is her life.
No matter how great the things the Self-Defense Forces did, Ginny would not let Bear Cub and herself join.
The dragon was not surprised, and his expression did not turn ugly because of Ginny's rejection. He turned to look at the bear who was still in deep thought, waiting for his answer.
Ginny however blocked the dragon's gaze, stood in front of the bear, and said to the bear:
"Bear cub, listen, we are not going to join the Self-Defense Forces. We will stay in the Kingdom of Solbe and live a good life here."
The bear still didn't speak.
As time passed, the atmosphere of silence and tension grew thicker.
The bear spoke. He raised his eyes, looked directly into the dragon's eyes, and said slowly:
"I promised! But Ginny won't join the Vigilantes."
This was the bear's answer.
Long looked delighted, while Ginny looked stunned.
Ginny jumped directly onto the bear, grabbed the bear's neck, and shouted:
"No, no, no! You don't want to! You don't want to! I won't allow you to join the Self-Defense Forces, and I won't allow you to do anything dangerous! Wuwu..."
As she spoke, Ginny burst into tears.
Her bear cub had a very tragic experience. He had been a slave of the Celestial Dragons since childhood. During the Battle of God Valley, Ginny used her extraordinary wisdom to help the bear obtain the powerful Meat-Ball Fruit, successfully escaped from the battlefield of God Valley and gained freedom.
This matter sounds simple, but only Xiong and Ginny, who were involved, knew the difficulty involved. It is incredible to think that two young boys and girls who were slaves escaped from the battle in the Valley of Gods where gods were fighting and gained their freedom.
It is also because of this that Ginny realizes even more how precious her current life is, and how difficult it is for her to live happily with Bear Cub in the Kingdom of Solbe.
Ginny would never allow anyone to disrupt such happiness.
What about liberating slaves, what about freedom and peace, Ginny only wants the bear cub!!! ~
The bear raised his hand and stroked Ginny's head, trying to comfort the bewildered girl, and said softly:
"I'm sorry, Ginny, but I have to help Mr. Doragg, not only because he has helped us before, but also because I want to rescue more slaves, just as you once rescued me. This world is not so perfect, and our past is also fragmented, but I want to change it, change this world, change the ugly Mary Joa, my parents died there, I can't let more people's parents and children die in that dark cage, I'm sorry,... Ginny..."
Ginny cried even louder, tears streaming down her face:
"Idiot!~ Idiot!~ You only know how to say sorry!~ You've been like this since the beginning. I finally have the life I have now, and you have to say sorry again. You're really a nuisance to me!~"
Ginny's tears wet the bear's collar and also wet the bear's uneasy heart.
Long stood aside without saying anything, but looked guilty. However, there was nothing he could do, he needed Bear's power, the Self-Defense Forces needed Bear's power, and the world needed Bear's power.
Ginny's crying gradually became weaker. She raised her head from the bear's chest. Her pink hair was wet with tears at the temples and on her cheeks. She was in tears.
Ginny panted and looked at the bear pitifully:
"No, we have to go together. I'll go wherever you go. You idiot, you'll definitely be bullied if you go to the Self-Defense Forces. I'm going to watch over you, Bear~"
The last sentence of Bear Cub almost melted Bear's heart.
Long then spoke:
"Although I am very sorry to both of you, there are countless oppressed people in this world. Thank you for your generosity. On behalf of the Self-Valiant Army, I welcome both of you to join me."
In the year 1498 of the Haiyuan calendar, the future revolutionary army welcomed its Eastern Army Commander and Western Army Commander!
