Chapter 617 The Solitary Red(1/2)
After the words fell, Gawain continued to walk toward Impel Down in silence.
Following Gawain, Xiliu nervously grasped the hilt of his knife, looking at Gawain's back with infinite admiration in his eyes!
Xi Liu has never been a good person, but he always thought that Gawain was a good person. Apart from necessary killings, he always thought that one day he would be no match for Gawain.
Who knows…….
I am indeed an indispensable knife for adults!
From this point of view, it is necessary for my future self to understand adults' thoughts more clearly. My current self really doesn't understand adults very well, and I have done too little!
In a position like yours, you shouldn't say the above words yourself. He only needs to reveal a few signs, or if he doesn't reveal any signs, he should get everything done for you!
How can you say bad things from adults? You should just do those bad things yourself.
I am really... so derelict of my duty!
Xi Liu was a little sad. He thought he was Gawain's executioner, but he didn't know who the knife should fall on!
From this moment on, Xi Liu finally felt enlightened.
If all other cadres were to guard the stars around the sun and moon, trying their best to show their light like the sea.
Then you should make a black hole and hide all the darkness in the sky!
Because the king is supposed to be the sun, but it is only reasonable that there must be darkness in the world!
…
In silence, Gawain took Xi Liu to the sixth floor of Impel Down City.
Gawain didn't pay attention to the clamoring prisoners around him. Apart from Redfield, there was no other target here that suited him.
In the distance, Redfield was particularly sensitive to Gawain's arrival.
Just for a moment, Redfield opened his eyes, and his old heart beat uncontrollably!
No one knows how tired he has been waiting this year.
From being full of disdain at the beginning, to being at the end of the road, to now being very much looking forward to it.
Before Gawain could stop in front of his cell, Redfield couldn't help but speak to Gawain.
"You finally came!"
After saying these words, Redfield exhaled heavily, and he finally took this step.
I saw him slowly sitting up from the bed, then dragging his old body and looking at Gawain.
His elbows rested on his knees tiredly. Compared with old people such as Rayleigh Carp, Redfield was too old.
His exposed skin was as withered and thin as a mummy, and his blood vessels were like ferocious old snakes entangled between the bones and the skin, as ferocious as if they might break away from the skin at any time.
But Gawain was not disappointed, because Gawain saw Redfield's eyes.
Compared with his old and decaying body, Redfield's eyes were burning hot!
Although the old man in front of him is haggard, his heart and will have been polished by time and become purer and stronger!
This is the uncrowned king of the previous era, the loneliness who firmly believes that a lion cannot coexist with the sheep, the aloof red who does not form parties or alliances, but can compete with Whitebeard and Roger even though he is lonely!
only…….
This aloof red made the wrong decision at the wrong time, faced the wrong dilemma, met the wrong enemy, and finally encountered... the wrong future!
Even if he lived in seclusion like Mihawk, or if he had the Shichibukai policy thirty years ago.
Then Redfield would not have spent his prime years in a dark prison.
Missing an entire prime life was not just Redfield's regret.
When this magnificent sea is missing Redfield.
That may be the regret of this sea!
With admiration in his eyes, Gawain took the key from Xi Liu and opened the prison door of Redfield.
Looking at the open door, Redfield's aloof eyes suddenly moved.
He couldn't wait to taste freedom.
But even if he couldn't wait, he had to suppress that thought.
Because Redfield knew that there was another person in front of him who could decide his fate.
So, Redfield sat there, raised his head, and spoke firmly into Gawain's eyes.
"I don't have the same treatment as Barrett and others, and I can't read the newspapers at sea at all.
So, Draco guys.
After Barrett followed you out, what big things did you do?"
After saying that, Redfield looked at Gawain expectantly, and his lips trembled slightly. The trembling rhythm was his last sign of weakness and cowardice.
He was really afraid that his goodwill would not earn Gawain's respect.
The opponent is a Tianlong, and he is a strong man, no less powerful than he was back then.
If this person throws his last face and dignity into the ground and tramples on him, then Redfield knows that if he really needs to kneel down, then he will really kneel down.
He just wants to get out of this damn prison, that's all!
Facing the slightly trembling Redfield, Gawain nodded and responded with a smile.
"This year, hey, we have really done a lot of great things.
A year ago, I led my subordinates and all the cadres of the navy to welcome the joint attack of Newgate, Charlotte Lingling, Shanks, and the old pirates from Beehive Island under the red earth continent in the direction of the New World.
."
"Ouch!"
Hearing this, Redfield's expression relaxed. Gawain was communicating with him, not humiliating him!
As for the person Gawain was talking about, although he couldn't read the newspaper, all the criminals who lived on the sixth floor of Impel Down City had talked about him.
That is the Yonko, the last remaining Yonko.
So Redfield continued to ask expectantly.
"So, man, the pirates lost, right?"
"Yes, I won."
Gawain agreed.
After getting the answer, Redfield nodded clearly.
"Yes, you should indeed win, and the sea must have been completely changed by you.
Since Barrett left, no new prisoners have entered the sixth floor of Impel Down.
Man, under your leadership, pirates no longer need to be imprisoned?
It’s so cruel, hahahahaha!!!”
Accompanied by a series of loud laughter, Redfield gently tied up his messy hair, and then nodded to Gawain.
"What should I call you next, man?"
"Just call me sir."
"Then, sir, I am an old man, is there anything else I can do to help you?"
"I will face the next war, and you have to bear an enemy for me."
"Strong?"
"Very strong."
"Better than Roger?"
"Not necessarily as good as that."
"Can I do it? I'm already old!"
Redfield was suddenly discouraged, and his originally cheered up spirit was suddenly shattered.
"If I were back then, even if I thought I was inferior to Roger, I wouldn't worry about being his enemy.
Just because he's not an opponent doesn't mean he can beat me. In my eyes, he's not an opponent, but I can't beat him either!
It's just that now, oh, when talking about those things now, there are some heroes who don't mention how brave they were back then.
Now I am really old, and it is difficult for me to regain my youth again.
I may not be able to meet your requirements.
Am I qualified to follow you out of this damn Impel City like this?"
"Yeah, hahaha, that old thing is already old!"
"That's right, boy, as long as you lick my big bird, I will go out to fight for you!"
