Chapter 441: Heroes Are Not Liars!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“Old liar?”

The young man was stunned and said angrily, “Master Sharp is not a liar, he is our hero!”

“Hero?”

The captain sneered. “Then where is your hero? Where is he now?”

“Sir Sharpe is resting. We have someone to inform him. Wait for him to come and you will be dead!”

The young man looked at his fallen compatriot and said angrily, “Lord Sharpe will stop you!”

“Sharpe?”

The Captain snorted and suddenly shouted, “Olex Sharp! Where are you? Come out quickly!!!”

Behind the young people, there was a sudden commotion. A group of people surrounded a strong man and slowly approached.

‘Sir Sharpe!’

The young man with braids said in surprise, “You’re here!”

“Soros…”

The burly man was probably in his fifties and his sideburns were a little white. He opened his mouth at the young man and finally pursed his lips. He walked to the front of the crowd and looked at the man in the captain’s hat. He saw the captain’s smile getting wider and wider and he was silent.

‘Sir Sharpe!’

Soros said anxiously: “This person said that you are a liar! They want to take us back to be slaves again. You will definitely save us again! Definitely!”

“Soros, I…” Sharpe did not look at Soros, but lowered his head and was silent.

This time, Soros was completely stunned.

He was not stupid. He knew what the situation was.

“Olex Sharp!”

George pointed his gun at the strong man and grinned. “Seven years ago, a fire burned the slave ship in Sabaody Land, causing a large number of slaves to escape and make a name for themselves as the ‘Explosive Flame Envoy’. But in fact, he was just an unknown little pirate at that time. He had no strength, no fame, no courage. Sharpe! What should you call me!”

Sharpe was silent for a while, looked up at George and said slowly, “Captain George…”

“That’s right! I’m your Captain! We drank the brotherhood wine! I was your Captain then and I’ll be your Captain for the rest of my life!”

George shouted: “After all these years, you won’t say that you forgot your oath at that time to mix with this group of slaves!”

‘Captain, I don’t. I always remember the oath,’ Sharpe said anxiously.

“Yes, that should be the case.”

George put away his gun and said to Sharpe: “Then use your ‘Hero’ characteristic to make these people give up resistance and come with us obediently. Once this is done, I will allow you to get back on the ship.”

“Wait, Captain George!”

Sharp said anxiously, “Didn’t you say that after I gather them, you will let me on the ship? Why do you want them to give up resistance? Why do you want to catch them!”

‘Are you kidding me, Sharpe?’

George said, “You used to be so stupid, why are you not improving at all now? Behind me is Tenryubito and that Lord Moreau. The ship you burned seven years ago is his. It is already merciful of him to show mercy to you. Our purpose here is to capture slaves. Only in this way can they let us leave the Marine encirclement!”

“You have already shouted, then try again. These people listen to you, I don’t want to bleed. After all, this is a precious ‘property’.”

“Sir Sharpe…”

Soros stared at Sharpe. “Is he telling the truth? You… you lied to us?”

Sharpe closed his eyes in pain as memories came to him…

… .

“Captain, when can I become as famous as you!”

In the tavern, the drunk Sharp asked George.

His Captain George is a pirate with a bounty of 28 million berries. Although it is not a big deal on the Grand Line, for those who have no bounty, he is a celebrity.

“Famous? Ha!”

George drank the wine in the wooden cup in one gulp and burped. “It’s very simple. Do you see those big ships on the coast? Those are slave ships. If you can destroy those things, you will definitely be famous. At that time, you will be put on a bounty by the World Government!”

“He might even surpass me, right, little ones!”

“Oh!!!!”

The pirates in the tavern raised their glasses and shouted.

“Hahaha, forget it, Sharp. Just follow the Captain.”

A pirate staggered over and patted Sharpe on the shoulder. “How dare you do such a thing, hahahaha.”

“Who said I don’t dare!”

Sharpe flushed and clenched his fists. “As a pirate, you are free to do whatever you want. Just you wait!”

With that, he put down his glass and ran out of the tavern.

“Hey, Sharp, be careful, don’t fall, hahahaha!”

Unbridled laughter sounded in the tavern.

… .

The flames almost enveloped the entire Sabaody Archipelago.

Late at night, several large ships docked in the port ignited.

On the shore, Sharpe held the burning torch and was startled by the wind. The wine… was completely awake.

… .

“Hey, Sharp, you have a bounty on your head! ‘Explosive Agent’ Olex Sharp, the bounty is 130 million Berries! The World Government wants your life!”

“Surpassed Captain, passed Captain!”

“Captain George, Sharp really made it!”

In the Pirate Ship in the sea, a group of pirates was shouting.

No one noticed that their Captain George, who was usually cheerful and respected, had a gloomy face.

… .

“Sharp, this won’t work. Their target is you. You escape alone now, let us leave first, and then we will come to this island to pick you up. I have prepared food and water for you.”

“I understand, Captain. I will wait for you here!”

… .

“Yes, Soros…”

Sharp opened his eyes and said slowly, “I’ve been trying to contact Captain George since I escaped last year, until yesterday. Captain George sent me a message and asked me to gather you together. I just didn’t expect him to want to catch you… I’m sorry, I’m not the hero you think I am. I’m just a stupid pirate who was drunk and confused and wanted to make a name for himself.”

“It’s good that you understand yourself, Sharpe. Make them give up their resistance quickly!” George shouted. “Don’t you even listen to the Captain’s orders!”

“Captain, they are all poor people! Spare them! If it doesn’t work, I will go with you, my bounty…”

Before he could finish, George’s face hardened and he raised his pistol at Sharpe. “Don’t mention the bounty, bastard!!”

Bang!

The trigger was pulled with a muffled sound.

Sharp’s eyes widened and it seemed that time had slowed down at this moment as he watched the bullet gradually approach him.

**TIP**

Suddenly, a huge force came from the side and pushed him away.

Soros appeared at his position, the bullet in the shoulder, he grunted and one arm drooped.

“Soros…” Sharp fell to the ground and stared at him.

“Whatever you say…”

Soros held his shoulder and gritted his teeth. “Seven years ago, you saved me when I was only nine years old. It is a fact. No matter who you deceived, you did not deceive me, you did not deceive us! You are my spiritual pillar. No matter how much the world despises you, you will always… always be my hero!”

He looked at George and roared, “Heroes are not liars! They are not!!!”
