I really don't want to be the pirate king

The small town of Stadt is located on a small island in the southern waters of the West Sea. Because it has a natural deep-water port that can dock large-tonnage transport ships, it has become a famous transportation transfer station in the nearby waters.

Coupled with the rich fishing resources around it, the population of the small town of Stadt has increased over a long period of time, with the population reaching one million, even surpassing some small countries.

The development of maritime transportation is inseparable from the shipbuilding industry. There are no fewer than five shipyards near the port alone.

In one of the shipyards, there is a nearly completed transport ship docked in the dock. It is 35 meters long and 12 meters wide. It has one layer on the deck and a watertight cabin below the deck. It is a medium-sized transport ship ordered by the Silver Chamber of Commerce. , is also the main transport ship of their chamber of commerce.

But the deck of the ship is bare, and the mast has not yet been erected, and the task of erecting the mast will be completed today.

Setting up a mast is not a simple matter, it is a technical job.

Because of the length and weight of the mast, it is not easy to stand it in the mast cabin.

The mast needs to be placed on the deck, then the bottom of the mast is fixed, the top of the mast is tightened with four long ropes, and the pulley and the winch at the back of the ship are used to pull the mast up little by little and stand it upright above the mast warehouse.

Then by adjusting the long rope, using the mast's own weight, it slides into the mast shaft little by little and is fixed in the mast cabin.

What will be erected this time is the main mast, which is 34 meters long and about two meters thick at the bottom. The ironwood used in the mast has an air-dry density of 1.12, which means that a mast weighs It weighs nearly seventy tons.

In the past, completing this task required the efforts of many people, but now it doesn't have to be that troublesome.

I saw a young man of about 20 years old appearing next to the mast. He had short black hair, eyebrows like a knife, a straight nose, and an angular jawline, forming a handsome face.

He was over two meters tall, with a strong build and muscular build, and his exposed arms were as thick as a girl's waist.

Aaron Johnson.

A shipwright at Huntington Shipyard with extremely excellent shipbuilding skills.

He raised his arms and hugged the mast directly. His two-meter-long arms encircled most of the mast, and then he exerted force on both arms.

wow.

The huge mast was lifted directly, erected little by little on the mast shaft, pointing towards the sky.

Then he slowly squatted down, put the bottom of the mast into the mast well, loosened his arms slightly, let the mast slide into the mast well for a certain distance, suddenly closed his arms, hugged the mast again, and stopped the fall.

After two consecutive attempts, the mast fell to the bottom, and someone immediately stepped forward to fix the position.

"Aaron is so strong."

A strong middle-aged man stepped forward, patted his muscles and said, "You can even lift a mast of dozens of tons."

"Uncle Albert, it should be because I like fitness."

Aaron smiled and said, "So his strength is indeed much greater than that of ordinary people."

"It's more than that."

The other party said with nostalgia: "I remember that you followed old George to the shipyard when you were five years old. At that time, your strength was greater than ordinary people."

Old George!

Hearing this name, Aaron showed a nostalgic look. It was his adoptive father who rescued him as a baby at sea, raised him and taught him shipbuilding skills.

After he passed away four years ago, he officially entered the shipyard and became a shipwright, so he could support himself.

"Okay, your work is done today."

Albert smiled and said: "Leave the rest of the work to us, you can go back."

"it is good."

Aaron immediately packed up his things, bought some ingredients on the road, and returned to his home, a house located in a remote area on the east side of the town.

Most of the people living here are poor people, and the surrounding area is relatively chaotic, but no one dares to provoke Aaron, not only because of his tall stature and terrifying strength, but also because of his status as an employee of Huntington Shipyard. People there can They are all of the same mind, if you mess with these shipwrights, they will blow your head off with a hammer.

Although with Aaron's savings, after selling this house, he can exchange it for a house in a good area.

But this was left by my adoptive father, and I was surrounded by relatives and friends. I had long been accustomed to the life here, so I have been living here.

After returning home, Aaron went to the bathroom to take a shower, changed into clean clothes, then went into the kitchen and made some dishes.

Then he sat at the table, picked up the newspaper while eating, and began to browse today's news.

"The World Government Conference was held in Mariejoia. There were 178 countries participating this time, the most in history."

"The Viper Pirates attacked the Seven Waters Capital, and Lieutenant General Borsalino defeated them."

"Saint Roswader went to the North Sea to visit the Kingdom of Dalgliesh."

"..."

Yes, this is the world of One Piece.

The world that Aaron came to was separated by red earth continents. There was also a great sea route with an unpredictable climate. Pirates were rampant and the current situation was chaotic.The navy has a huge fleet and the strongest power, and the world government they belong to is controlled by the Celestial Dragons.

It has only been four years since Roger was executed. The Shichibukai system has just been established, and everything has just begun.

Aaron, who knew the future, did not intend to get involved in the drastic changes in history. He knew that he was not the one who changed the future as predicted, and he did not want to put himself in danger.

His dream is very simple: find a job that can support his family, marry a gentle wife, have one or two children, and live an ordinary life.

But fate seems to disagree with this...

At twelve o'clock in the night, in the dark bedroom, Aaron, who was sleeping soundly, suddenly opened his eyes, reached out his arm and grabbed the shotgun next to him, then stood up and got out of bed lightly.

On the first floor, there were rustling sounds, light footsteps, and the sound of cabinet doors being opened and rummaging for things.

A thief broke into your home?

Holding a shotgun in hand, Aaron slowly walked to the door, opened the bedroom door gently, then slowed down and went down from the second floor to the first floor.

It seems to be towards the kitchen?

Aaron listened carefully and caught the sounds of chewing and swallowing. Was the other party's purpose food?

He walked into the kitchen slowly and saw a young figure standing in front of the cupboard. He took out a piece of bread from it, stuffed it into his mouth, chewed it with big mouthfuls, and then swallowed it quickly.

He also opened a carton of milk and took a sip when he choked.

Seeing the other person's back, Aaron was stunned on the spot, because the other person was only 1.5 meters tall, wearing a dress, and was a little girl.

My feet were bare, and I didn’t even have shoes. I was eating in such a hurry, and I didn’t know how long I had been hungry.

It's so pathetic.

It's better not to disturb her, exit slowly, pretend you didn't see anything, and let her leave after she's full.

Thinking like this, Aaron slowly backed away, but accidentally touched the door frame, making a slight sound.

"Ok?"

The little girl was startled, turned around, and saw Aaron holding a shotgun, looking panicked.

She wanted to escape, but the direction of the door was on Aaron's side, and she was blocked in the kitchen. She looked at Aaron and slowly raised her hands.

"Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you."

Seeing this scene, Aaron put down the shotgun and said, "If you are hungry, eat more."

Hearing this, the little girl hesitated. When she saw him put down the gun, she chose to believe it. She picked up the bread and ate it quickly while staring at him.

"Don't be in a hurry, just eat slowly."

Aaron said softly, worried about scaring her, and exited the kitchen and came to the living room.

He found a lighter, lit the oil lamp, sat on the sofa and waited quietly.

After a while, after finishing eating, the little girl walked out of the kitchen and came to the living room.

"I, I'm full." The little girl said softly.

"Little girl..."

Aaron wanted to ask her where she came from, why she came to his home, and if she needed any other help.

But with the help of the dim light, he saw the other party's face.

The long black hair is spread over the shoulders, with a neat hairstyle covering the forehead, a pair of big blue eyes like a quiet lake, a straight nose, thin lips, and a round face that looks cute and cute.

Her skin color is a little dark, her figure is a little thin, her hands are behind her back, and her expression is a little nervous.

It looks a little familiar...

Wait a minute, isn’t this Nico Robin as a child?
