Chapter 120 Roger’s illness?

"Dashiqi, did your mother ever tell you that you have a sister?"

"Sister? I have heard about her, but I haven't seen her!" Dashiqi said regretfully.

"You'll see it in the future, this sea is magical!" Vic lamented the little girl's childhood. It was more of a journey than a play. Fortunately, she is settling down now.

Afterwards, Vic completed the formalities for Tashigi. From now on, if Tashigi had any problems, she could just go to Smoker. Smoker would be responsible for Tashigi from now on.

Smoker is not a bad person, and Tashigi has a good nature. She will definitely be good when she grows up. I just hope Tashigi won’t become nearsighted again!

The next day, Vic made a sea king-infused tonic soup for Smoker, hoping that Smoker would recover sooner after drinking it.

Because Vic got the news that the elite camp would go out to sea for graduation assessment in a dozen days, so time was a bit tight.

Not everyone has a physique like Vic, and it is hard to say how long it will take for Smoker's injury to heal.

Vic still wants Smoker to achieve good results. After all, he recognizes Smoker's justice, the justice of distinguishing right from wrong.

"Ah, Smoker, you are very brave. You dare to catch a big pirate like the King of Misrule. This is very Smoker!"

"I didn't think too much about it at the time. I just saw someone being forced, and I couldn't just sit there and watch!"

"Ah, yes, Smoker, I was right about you, you really suit my taste!"

Vic heard the conversation coming from outside Smoker's ward. There was a very unfamiliar voice, casual but steady.

Vic pushed the door open and entered the ward. What caught his eye were two big words - Justice. Vic saw a man with his back to him, sitting beside Smoker's bed. He had long black hair and looked very tall.

Hearing someone coming in, the man turned around and looked over. The man had a green eye patch on his head. It was Aokiji, the future admiral of the navy, and he is still a vice admiral now.

"Hey, Smoker, there's a guest. Might you introduce him?" Vic spoke first, even though he knew who it was.

"Hey! This is the friend I told you about before. I wanted you to meet him, the current Vice Admiral of the Marine Headquarters, Aokiji. His name is Kuzan. You two can indeed have a sparring match!" Smoker said seriously.

"Lieutenant General Kuzan, let me introduce you. This is the guy who defeated the King of Evil Government whom I just told you about. He is Vic! Very strong! Do you want to find a chance to fight him?" Smoker said with a beaming eyebrow.

Vic ignored Smoker and walked towards Aokiji. Aokiji also stood up and looked at Vic seriously!

"Lieutenant General Kuzan, I have heard of your great name for a long time. Today I finally have the honor of meeting you. Nice to meet you!"

Vic stretched out his hand, and Aokiji shook hands with Vic very seriously.

"Ah la la! I've heard of you too, and read the reports in the newspapers. You're this year's super rookie, and you defeated Demon Spider in the first month after coming to the headquarters. And there were all the things that happened afterwards. You were able to survive Kaido's hands. At your age, I can't do that. I'm not as good as you!"

Aokiji was actually watching the fight between Vic and Pizarro yesterday. Seeing that Vic had the upper hand, he did not take action and then left. However, he didn't mention it to me now. Kuzan is a man who only does things and doesn't talk about them.

"Lieutenant General Kuzan is being too modest. You should have the fighting power of a general now. You can go wherever you want in the sea. I envy you that freedom!"

"Ah, you have some strength now, but you are not the best in the world. You still have potential. It should be no problem for you to become the best. I am very optimistic about you!"

After experiencing the O'Hara incident, Aokiji has been searching for the true justice in his heart. He has traveled all over the country in the past few years and has broken several bicycles. He has a rough idea in his mind and is very optimistic about people like Smoker and Vic.

"Hey, how long are you two going to be so attracted to each other? There's a living person here!"

Seeing the two of them flattering each other in front of him, Smoker interrupted them loudly.

"Ahem, Lieutenant General Kuzan, I'm here to bring soup to Smoker. Let him drink the soup first, and we'll talk later!"

"Ah, I was wondering why it smelled so good. Turns out you brought some soup. Hurry up and give me a bowl!"

After saying this, Aokiji snatched the thermos box, scooped out a bowl, and started drinking the tonic soup prepared for Smoker.

"Ah, la la, it's really good, delicious!"

"It's a waste to give it to Smoker. He doesn't know how to enjoy himself. Well, I want another bowl!"

Smoker watched Aokiji drink up his soup with tears in his eyes. Vic's soup was really delicious, made with the best bones of sea kings. Vic didn't make it often, so it was rare for him to get to drink it.

Aokiji finally put down the bowl contentedly and handed the rest to Smoker.

"Ah, this is really good. After drinking it, my body is full of energy! Come and try it!"

Smoker took great pains to scoop up two spoonfuls and put them into his mouth with tears in his eyes.

It’s a bit depressing just thinking about it. He wanted the two of them to fight, and it would be best if Vic turned into a pig’s head, because Aokiji had never beaten him. As a result, he lost his delicious and nutritious soup. Can’t he have bad intentions?

"Vice Admiral Kuzan, I heard that you have been on Vice Admiral Garp's ship before. How was it?" Vic started chatting with Aokiji again.

"Ah, Mr. Garp is really strong! He even casually refused the position of admiral, so cool!" Aokiji recalled with admiration.

"That's it?"

"Ah, that's how I feel!"

"Tell me more about it. I'm very interested in what happened before the Great Pirate Era."

"That era, I was interning on Mr. Garp's ship in the late period of that era, but there were still many forces formed on the sea, such as Whitebeard and Charlotte Linlin, and the Golden Lion, all of which were very powerful. Then there was the Roger Pirates, who took the elite route!"

Aokiji seemed to be lost in memories. He spoke slowly and his eyes looked a little vague.

"I heard that Roger turned himself in? Wasn't he caught by us?" Vic asked again.

"Ah, that's good, young man. You know a lot. Roger did turn himself in. It was a premeditated surrender!" Aokiji sighed.

"Oh, why do you say that?" Vic asked knowingly.

"Well, Roger has a terminal illness and he knew he wouldn't live long. But when he was executed, he didn't look sick. It's very strange. I've never heard of that kind of disease!" Aokiji said with some confusion, as if asking a rhetorical question.

"Is there something suspicious about Roger's death?" Vic was very curious, as this was not mentioned in the original book.

"Before Roger died, a military doctor discovered some strangely shaped reticular erythema on his chest and back. However, considering Roger's strength at the time and being in his prime, he would not have such a fatal disease at all. The military doctor had never heard of that kind of disease, and in the end, the case was left unsolved." Aokiji was also puzzled.

"Could it be that he contracted the disease in some ruins? Why is he the only one like this? A disease that has never been seen before? This is definitely not a coincidence!" Vic thought silently in his heart.

"Oh, this is a secret. You just need to know it. Don't spread it to anyone else. The higher-ups don't allow us to talk about this!" Aokiji pointed his finger towards the Red Earth Continent.

What's there? Of course Vic and Smoker knew, and both nodded.

"Well, that's all for today. I'm going to go back first. I've had a lot of meetings recently. We'll talk later. Vic, the soup is good!" Aokiji seemed to be in a bad mood because of the matter of Pirate King Roger. He said goodbye to the two of them and left.

"Smoker, what's wrong? Can you recover before the graduation exam?"

"It should be about the same. It won't affect me! If I take this sea king tonic soup a few more times, I'll get better faster!" Smoker looked at Vic sincerely!

"That's good. Otherwise, when I become a lieutenant general, you might still be a lieutenant colonel. Then you will have to salute me when you meet me. Hahaha!" Vic seemed not to hear the last sentence.

"How is that possible? It's absolutely impossible. I must reach the general level before you!"

"Smoker, can you please have some self-awareness and think about the difference in strength between you and me!"

"Humph, it's not like whoever is stronger gets a higher position. I will work hard to catch pirates after I graduate, and I will definitely surpass you by then!"

"That's not necessarily true. I already have military merits now! Hahaha!"

……

While the two were chatting, Tina came to bring food to Smoker.

When Vic saw Tina coming, he decided not to stay any longer.

"Since someone has brought you food, I'll go back first. Remember to visit Tashigi after you are discharged from the hospital!" Vic stood up, said hello to Tina, and left the ward.

Walking on the road, Vic released the armed color domineering that wrapped around Xue Ku and Allen, and he himself was also bathed in the domineering. He slowly walked back to the wooden house, not caring about the strange looks along the way. He now had a legitimate reason, although it was a bit luxurious to cover his whole body with domineering.

Vic is also preparing to eat, but he is a little worried when looking at the ocean in front of him. He had cut the sea before, and now there are no sea kings living here. He now has to go a long way to catch one!

Vic put his thoughts aside and ran towards the sea on moon steps.
