Jia Ya smiled slightly, but didn't take it seriously.
However, she still took the newspaper and read it.
Of course, what they were concerned about was not Mod's bounty, but the content in the report.
After reading the report about the Dragon Pirates, Jaya slowly opened her eyes.
Immediately afterwards, she read the report on the Wang Ship Incident.
After reading it, she couldn't help but remain silent.
Is this bad behavior, or is it a good thing
She was a little confused.
Chapter 26 Freedom
The meaning of being a pirate is freedom.
But being free enough also means not being constrained.
Once human nature is unfettered, it will naturally give birth to countless pirates who only know how to burn, kill and loot.
Most of Jaya's knowledge of pirates comes from those pirates who only want to plunder Mengmeng Island.
Therefore, it is impossible for her to realize that [freedom] is the most precious thing a pirate has.
As long as they are free, pirates can do evil or good.
Therefore, no one can stipulate what pirates can and cannot do.
As a veteran pirate who has retired for a long time, Jabba has an extremely deep understanding of these issues.
Even so, he never instilled these things in Jaya.
In his opinion, if there is no suitable opportunity, Jaya will spend her whole life guarding those ancient ruins that have been sedimented by time on Mengmeng Island.
Since he has a relatively stable future, Jabba will naturally not be like Thor, who thinks about bragging about his past glory days to his younger generations all day long.
The contents of the newspaper had some impact on Jia Ya's cognition, and she inadvertently made large wrinkles in the newspaper.
"Sister Ya, the newspaper..."
Sunny called softly a few times, bringing Jaya back to her senses.
"Ah, sorry."
Jia Ya narrowed her eyes, returned the almost-disfigured newspaper to Sunny, and then smiled apologetically.
"No need to apologize for such a small thing."
Sunny took the newspaper and looked at Jaya in confusion.
She felt that Jia Ya was a little weird.
Jia Ya smiled and remained silent.
Sunny didn't think much, smoothed the newspaper and looked at Maud's photo a few more times.
At this sight, a smile appeared on his little face again.
Kerla put her arm around Sunny's shoulders and said teasingly: "I've counted it for you. You've looked at one photo exactly nine times."
Sunny didn't care about Kerra's teasing.
It has always been her habit to read a newspaper over and over several times.
Seeing that Sunny didn't react at all, Kerla stopped teasing and brought up business.
"Sunny, have you decided?"
"Well, I can leave at any time."
Sunny nodded slowly and folded the newspaper properly.
Let Thor retire on Mengmeng Island, and Jabba will be with him, so she has no worries.
Now, Maud has been at sea for a while, so she has to join the revolutionary army quickly.
Only in that way can she and Maud establish a "cooperative" relationship as soon as possible.
Kella smiled and said: "That's great, just come with us..."
Halfway through her words, Kerla glanced at Jaya from the corner of her eye and stopped her words at the right time.
Sunny didn't know the content of the second half of Kerla's sentence, but she could guess that it was related to the mission.
Sabo watched quietly from the side, suddenly felt something, and couldn't help but look in one direction.
On the hillside at the end of the field of vision, the figures of Thor and Jabba were revealed.
The arrival of Sabo and Kerla was certainly not hidden from the eyes of the two old men.
"It's the revolutionary army."
Jabba took a sip of his cigarette and turned his head to look at Thor.
Once the revolutionary army arrives, it means it's time for Sunny to set off.
When Thor heard this, he didn't react at all.
There was no trace of nostalgia on his old face.
Jabba curled his lips, thinking that the old dwarf just liked to pretend.
The two old men walked side by side.
"Give me the newspaper."
Sol saw the folded newspaper in Sunny's hand at a glance.
Sunny handed over the newspaper.
Saul took the newspaper, opened it and read it.
"oh?"
After seeing Maud's photos and reports, Saul smiled knowingly.
Jabba squeezed his head over and read the contents of the newspaper with Thor.
In a relatively backward place like Mengmeng Island, if you want to know the news from the outside world, you can only use newspapers.
Seeing how much trouble Maud had caused in less than a month, Jabba sighed: "This kid is quite messy, but... I like it."
Hearing this, Jaya glanced at Jabba without any trace.
Jabba didn't notice Jaya's little movement, and his attention was still on the contents of the newspaper.
"If you dare to attack the royal families of the participating countries, you will inevitably be settled by the Queen."
"So what? Just run fast enough."
Thor closed the newspaper and smiled disdainfully.
Jabba was silent. He couldn't argue with Thor on this point.
God knows how Sol's short legs turned into scuds later on.
Sol returned the newspaper to Sunny, his mind filled with the reports about Maude.
"I used to think that a person's life only needed to be wonderful enough. Now, I just want to live longer."
"Idiot, who doesn't want to live longer?"
Jabba was very disgraceful.
Sol raised his cane and struck it with a stick.
Seeing the two old men starting to fight again, Sunny and Jaya felt helpless.
"Thor, I'm going to follow Kella and the others later."
Sunny put the newspaper in her pocket and mentioned officially joining the revolutionary army.
Sol stopped waving his cane, turned his back to Sunny, and wrote lightly: "Oh, go ahead."
"Um."
Sunny nodded slowly.
Half an hour later.
The revolutionary army ship slowly sailed away from Mengmeng Island.
On the beach, Thor, Jabba, and Jaya watched the ship go away.
After the ship turned into a small black dot on the distant horizon, Thor sighed in a low voice, with reluctance written on his old face.
Jabba glanced at Thor's expression at this moment and couldn't help but shook his head.
Jia Ya looked up at the sky and whispered, "It's time to go back."
"Oh, what's good for dinner tonight?"
Sol changed his mood in a second and looked at Jia Ya expectantly.
“…”
Jabba and Jaya were speechless.
On the way back to the Huangu residence.
Jabba suddenly said: "Xiaoya, the world outside is very exciting."
Jia Ya was startled by such a meaningless sentence.
"Speaking of wonderful things, I have to mention my memoirs. Xiaoya, when we have dinner later, I will tell you as much as you want to hear."
Sol came closer, his face beaming with joy, and there was no trace of sadness or reluctance to say goodbye to Sunny.
Jabba looked at Thor who looked unserious.
He knew that Thor was just keeping his emotions inside.
"hehe."
Jia Ya smiled slightly and then said nothing.
Facing the orange-red twilight of the setting sun, a group of three people walked towards Huangu Residence.
... ... ... ... ..
Donghai, a tavern in a small town.
The business of the tavern is not bad, the occupancy rate is almost 90%.
Nailed on a wall inside the bar was a rectangular wooden board with more than a dozen pirate reward notices posted on it.
Among these reward orders, the lowest is only 3 million, and the highest is only 17 million.
At this time, a bearded man walked into the tavern from the back door and handed a brand new reward order to the bartender at the bar.
"stick it on."
The man was a tavern owner, and he motioned to the bartender to post the recently updated reward order on the board.
The bartender did as he was told, without looking at the reward notice, but posted it very skillfully.
After posting it, the bartender was able to take a look at the bounty.
"10.2 million is quite high."
As he said this, the bartender felt something was wrong. He was quite sensitive to numbers, so he counted them carefully.
At this time, the men sitting around the bar also noticed the newly posted reward order.
"Someone is messing around again."
A man sighed with emotion, first looked at the handsome young man on the reward order, and then looked at the amount of the reward.
Then, he was dumbfounded.
A few seconds later, several men next to him followed suit, and they were also stupid.
“One, one hundred million???”
The bartender's eyes almost popped out of his head as he shouted out the amount of money on the reward order.
