Chapter 416: Tell Me, What Is Your Dream?

Uehara was indeed a good person.

At least in Makino’s opinion, Uehara was actually a person who had gone astray but was still trying to struggle in the quagmire.

Even if he joined the evil Baroque Works, he was still trying to reduce the harm caused by the Baroque Works as much as possible.

“Hey, don’t be so disheartened!”

Luffy forced himself to sit next to Uehara and punched the table. He said in a low voice, “Don’t you have your own dreams? If you really want to do something, then do it now!”

“…”

Uehara fell silent.

Was there something wrong with these protagonists? Why does it feel like every protagonist wants to try to change him?

After a long time.

Uehara calmly raised his head and looked at Luffy in front of him. He said softly, “When I joined Baroque Works, I lost the qualification to have dreams…”

Uehara’s voice sounded a little sad, “All the members of our Baroque Works are working for our boss’ dream. No one dares to resist his will until our boss becomes the Pirate King!”

Uehara casually put a black pot on Crocodile, at least for a while.

“The Pirate King is mine!”

Luffy smashed his face on the table with anger. Then he looked at Uehara with anger, “Don’t you have anything you want to do? It doesn’t matter even if you give up your life for it!”

Luffy put his hand on his straw hat and continued in a deep voice, “Just like I want to become the Pirate King! I want to become the Pirate King, even if I die in the sea! Besides, you are so much stronger than me!”

“…”

Uehara was still silent.

This guy’s mouth was not bad!

But how should he explain this to Luffy? In fact, what he is doing now is what he wants to do, and that is to splash dirty water on Crocodile!

After a long silence, Uehara said, “I’m sorry. The strength of the Baroque Works is not something I can resist. Even the marine can’t do anything to them. I’m just a small member. What can I do?”

Uehara took a sip of juice and continued with a heavy face, “You will never be able to imagine our boss’s strength. Now, maybe he is the strongest person in the world. The Baroque Works is also the strongest organization in the world…”

When Uehara said this, his expression became extremely ugly, “Even a small character like me can run amuck in East Blue… The other member of the Baroque Works can all make waves on Grand Line!”

Uehara turned to look at Luffy angrily and said in a deep voice, “You can’t even save your own life now! If I didn’t bring you here just now, you would have lost your life!”

Uehara suddenly grabbed Luffy by the collar, and his face became extremely gloomy, “Hey! Before you understand the other people’s pain… don’t randomly point fingers at other people’s lives!”

“…”

Luffy looked at Uehara, who was emotional and fell silent.

Makino looked a little worried. She looked at Luffy, then at Uehara, and said softly, “Um… Would you like another glass of juice?”

“Yes.”

Uehara nodded slowly and said softly, “Boss? Your juice is delicious. Unfortunately, I can’t pay you.”

“…”

Makino was choked by this sentence.

He was clearly a good person; why did he have to speak that!

A second later, Makino’s smile returned to her face, “It’s okay. It’s good that the guest likes it.”

“Sorry.”

Uehara looked at Makino’s face and explained seriously, “A member of Baroque Works has to rob a million Bailey in every store. Otherwise, they will destroy the store and kill the store owner.”

Uehara said with some frustration, “Before, I got a windfall from a pirate thief, but I secretly helped some innocent store owners who were robbed on other islands and couldn’t pay the money. Now my private savings are only a few hundred thousand Beli; I really have no choice…”

“So that’s how it is…”

Makino was enlightened.

At this moment, Makino finally understood why Uehara wanted to steal her money.

Makino’s eyes curved as she smiled and comforted Uehara, “It doesn’t matter. I still have some savings before. I will prepare 1 million Beli. I will not let the guests feel troubled.”

Uehara looked at Makino and felt a little sorry. He continued, “Actually, 465,050 Beli is enough. I still have 529,950 Beli on me. I should be able to scrape the remaining difference before I hand it over to the organization.”

As soon as this was said…

Uehara felt much better in his heart.

This number sounds okay, as if he, the pirate, is even more embarrassed than the tavern owner, Makino. As long as Makino hears this, he will definitely not blame him for stealing money, right?

In fact, Makino did not care. Her savings seemed to be a lot. Soon, she easily gathered 1 million Beli and gave it to Uehara. She even gave an extra 500,000 Beli.

This woman’s kindness was beyond Uehara’s imagination.

Makino smiled at Uehara and explained, “This is to pass on the hope. If the guest encounters the next innocent victim in the future, I hope the guest can continue to help him.”

“…”

Uehara was silent.

This woman was too kind!

It was really unexpected that there was such a kind woman in this world. In addition to gentleness, she also had a heart that was willing to love the weak.

After a long time.

Uehara touched his conscience, put away the money that Makino had given him, and asked, “Boss, do you have any dreams?”

This sentence was a bit ironic.

After all, a person who just said that he was not worthy of having a dream actually asked about other people’s dreams. It seemed a bit inappropriate.

But…

If the people who knew Uehara were in this tavern and heard Uehara’s question, they would definitely sigh that Makino’s luck was really good.

“…”

Makino lowered her head and thought for a while. Then, she closed her palm and looked up at the ceiling, “My dream now… maybe I hope that Ace can be safe on the other side of the sea!”

Because Ace went out to sea this year.

Makino was most worried about that child.

When Luffy heard Makino mention Ace, he couldn’t help but scratch his head and say, “Eh? I remember seeing Ace’s wanter poster last time! He has a bounty of 900 million now! Ace must have become very strong!”

“…”

Uehara fell silent.

After a while, Uehara glanced at Makino and said, “You are a really kind person. I believe your dream will come true.”

“…”

The worry on Makino’s face did not diminish at all.

However, Makino’s thoughts quickly returned. She looked at Uehara and said seriously, “Actually, guest is also a kind person…”

“Hey, your name is Uehara Naraku, right?”

Luffy stood up and looked at Uehara seriously. He stretched out his palm and said in a deep voice, “Hey, Uehara, let’s make an agreement!”

“What agreement?”

Uehara looked at Luffy hesitantly.

Luffy laughed heartily and said, “I will be able to go out to sea in three years. You have to think clearly about what you want to do the most…”

After saying this, Luffy laughed heartily and continued, “Three years later, I will definitely go and defeat the boss of that Baroque Works. At that time… you can do what you want to do!”

“… Three year agreement?”

Uehara’s expression was a little interesting.

After a long time, Uehara stretched out his palm and held Luffy’s palm. He whispered, “In fact, what I wanted to do the most… was to become a marine… capture pirates on the sea and protect those weak people..”

“…”

The smile on Luffy’s face gradually disappeared.

After a while, the smile on Luffy’s face reappeared. He laughed and said, “As long as you have a dream, you have to do it no matter what!”

“Forget it; it’s too late.”

Uehara shook his head and whispered, “I promise you, I will think about it in these three years… What exactly what I want to do…”

“Then let’s work hard together!”

Makino, who was standing at the side, narrowed her eyes.

In the next moment, Makino suddenly remembered something else and asked, “By the way, Mr. Uehara, the people who robbed in the village… will they really not hurt the villagers?”

“No.”

Uehara shook his head with certainty, but there was a trace of hesitation on his face, “But, I am not too sure now. Although the Vice-President of the Baroque Works, Miss Nico Robin, is also a person who looks cold on the outside but is actually soft on the inside…

But her hometown is an island of innocent scholars, but it was completely sunk by marine warships. She is the only one who survived on the entire island. It was hard to say if she would vent her anger on Vice-Admiral Garp’s hometown because of the marine…”

After saying this, Uehara said in a deep voice, “Forget it; I’ll go and take a look! Luffy, Boss Makino, you guys stay here for the time being!”

Just at this time.

A figure appeared at the entrance of the tavern.

Kisame held a stout-looking woman in his hand and said loudly, “Uehara, we are done here. It is a great harvest. I didn’t expect that the defenders of this village were actually mountain bandits!”

“Mr. Kisame, I also received the 1 million Beli!”

After Uehara responded loudly, he turned to look at the worried Makino and Luffy and whispered, “Boss Makino, I have to go first… Luffy, I will definitely surprise you the next time we meet!”

“Wait…”

Luffy’s expression was a little strange. He pointed to the stout woman in Kisame’s hand and said, “That’s Dadan! Why would they want to capture her?”

“Is there a bounty on Dadan?”

Uehara frowned and said in a low voice, “If Dadan has a bounty on her, perhaps Baroque Works will secretly exchange it for the reward from the marine.”

“I remember there is…”

There was a worried look on Makino’s face as she said, “Dadan has a bounty of 780,000 Beli on her, but Dadan is a good person. We have forgotten that she has a bounty on her!”

“I will save her!”

Luffy suddenly rushed over!

For Luffy, Dadan was like a mother!

No, or to put it another way, Dadan was like a father and a mother, and compared to Vice-Admiral Garp, Luffy and Dadan had been together for a long time, and their relationship was closer!

“Do you to die?”

Uehara sighed, reached out to stop Luffy, and whispered, “I will protect her life and take the job of going to the marine base to exchange his bounty and find a way to send Dadan to a suitable person. “

“… Thank you.”

Makino nodded at Uehara with a worried face and whispered, “Then… I will leave everything to Mr. Uehara.”
