“Is this the hero who saved our entire country?”
"Shukman... a man who served as the commander of our country's guard army decades ago... does anyone know him?"
It is still the Lemon Kingdom Square.
Many civilians stood there, looking at the various statues built in the center of the square and discussing with each other.
“I don’t know…”
“Not sure.”
“But I seem to have some impression of that.”
A man who was about forty years old said.
There was no way. Almost all the old people in the kingdom were slaughtered. This meant that people who had experienced the Shukman era almost no longer existed. The remaining ones were just middle-aged people with some childhood memories.
But this does not affect the fact that Shukman is still the hero who protects the Kingdom of Lemon.
Just because..
Gordon’s new issue of “Biography of the Thunder Swordsman” is finally on sale.
The title of this biography is "Thunder Swordsman Extra Chapter - Captain Shukman", which tells the passionate story of how Vivian met an old man named Shukman in the Lemon Kingdom at midnight when he was chasing the fugitive CP0, and they joined forces to destroy the United Army camp and save the local people from danger.
The story begins with Vivian sneaking into the Lemon Kingdom in disguise and being forcibly captured by the Allied Forces to join the army.
When the other protagonist of the story, Shukman, first appeared, judging from the photos Vivian took secretly, Shukman looked no different from an ordinary old man, short and thin, and it was impossible to tell that he would be the so-called hero who saved the Lemon Kingdom.
"Isn't this just an ordinary old man who cooks?"
This is what almost every reader who just saw this page thinks.
until..
When Shukman suddenly jumped up on the farm and knocked down all the United Army soldiers who came to cause trouble for them, almost all the readers opened their mouths wide, and the expressions on their faces became unbelievable.
"Is this old man really that strong?"
"Is this really not a joke?"
"But that head of his... where on earth did he get that power from?"
They couldn't believe what they saw in the photo, and just when they wanted to continue reading to find out, the content on the next page suddenly changed from pictures to long paragraphs of text, and then began to tell a series of impressive achievements of Shukman in the Lemon Kingdom decades ago.
In fact, with most of the elderly people in the Lemon Kingdom being killed, it is undoubtedly a very difficult thing to learn about these past deeds, but Vivian happened to have spent two nights with Shukman in an abandoned factory in the city, and naturally learned about his personal deeds from the past stories he told to the civilians.
What happened next was very simple and clear. Relying on her extraordinary memory, Vivian repeated to Gordon everything she had heard during those two nights. Gordon then summarized the contents in a concise manner and published them on the pages of the magazine.
Even so, even after being streamlined, it still takes up a full four pages of content, which makes people secretly amazed when reading it.
About ten minutes later.
After carefully reading Shukman's past deeds, the readers of "Biography of the Thunder Swordsman" finally breathed a sigh of relief and began to calm the excitement in their hearts.
turn out to be..
This old man named Shukman was such a powerful guy when he was young.
Although his strength may not be as good as Vivian's today, the series of actions he took to protect the people are in no way inferior to what Vivian has done along the way.
Therefore, after reading the story of Shukman's youth, many people also sighed at this moment: "Heroes...turn out to be old too."
I wonder if Vivian will become like Shukman in thirty, fifty, or sixty or seventy years
And if that time really comes, will his descendants, like the people of the Ningde Kingdom today, slowly forget the title of Thunder Swordsman
When thinking of this, all readers could not help but sigh, as if they had been completely brought into the story. But at the same time, they also secretly vowed in their hearts that they would always remember everything Vivian had done for the people, and always teach their descendants to sing the praises of Vivian's name from generation to generation.
Feeling emotional and sighing.
Then there was the scene where Shukman made a last-ditch effort, released his last rays of light, and charged into the Allied Forces camp alone.
When everyone saw that Shukman's body shape had returned to that of his youth, and that he was still as indestructible as a god of war even under the siege of tens of thousands of soldiers, everyone was excited.
They haven't seen such passionate content in a magazine for a long time.
The last time I was so excited was when Vivian and Luffy joined forces to attack the Celestial Dragon Yinm.
And it seems that several months have passed since that time.
"Is this the strength of Shukman?"
"He can fight against an army of 100,000 with his own strength..."
"Compared to Lord Vivian, I'm afraid they are almost as good, right?"
People began to admire it.
until..
Shukman was hit in the vitals by Zero who also arrived at the territory of the Lemon Kingdom. He fell to the ground and became dying. Everyone couldn't stop shedding tears.
Especially after Shukman said to Vivian, "I'll leave it to you from now on," no one could hold back.
"Grandpa Xiu...Shukerman..."
“Woo woo woo woo~~”
"Why, why don't good people get good rewards?"
"That damn Zero!"
The cries and curses echoed in every corner of the world.
After crying and cursing, everyone saw something called "inheritance" from that sentence and Vivian's unwavering eyes.
“Is this the transition from the old to the new era?”
"Although a Shukman fell, we should be thankful that in this era there also appeared an Alfred Vivian..."
So who will it be in the future
Or maybe, it should be each of us' turn in the future
I couldn't calm down for a long time.
Until the end of the story, the Lemon Kingdom was reborn and a new system was established.
A young king without any noble blood stood on the podium and delivered a brief but shocking speech.
This issue of the magazine has finally come to an end.
