And Lord Lord Sima Di, who was in a room alone, left the inn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Usopp lay on the deck in a big character, although his body was very painful, it was not as painful as his heart, he opened his eyes, his thoughts were complicated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yo, still not asleep.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The familiar greeting made Usopp jump up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Following the moonlight, Usopp saw the visitor clearly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lord Lord Sima Di... no, Lord Lord Sima Di, what are you doing here?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you really willing to do this? For the sake of a ship, breaking with everyone?\" Lord Lord Sima Di sighed and said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But you all abandoned the Merry! I can't! I'm different from you, the Merry is an irreplaceable existence for me!\" Usopp cried and said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's not just you, the Merry is equally important to us.\" Lord Lord Sima Di didn't care whether Usopp blocked him or not, jumped up, and landed on the deck of the Merry, \"You are sad, aren't we sad? Or... seeing us like this, wouldn't the Merry be sad?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What if it's sad? You still listened to the captain and abandoned the Merry! Straw Hat Pirates' vice-captain, you should just listen to Luffy obediently! Get off the Merry! This is not where you should come!\" Usopp actually took out a slingshot and aimed it at Lord Lord Sima Di.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you think what I said before was wrong?\" Lord Lord Sima Di asked back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...You, you were right. But I can't do it! I can't watch the Merry be abandoned by you, it will be sad...\" Usopp's hand holding the slingshot was shaking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I want to tell you a story.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lord Lord Sima Di leaned on the bow of the Merry and told the story.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This family was a family of three, although very poor, they lived very happily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One day, the father, who was the pillar of the family, suddenly got sick. The illness came very suddenly, and when he went to the doctor, the doctor said he had cancer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Country people know little, thinking that besides taking medicine, eating some good things would make him recover. Their family's money, besides buying medicine, was to buy chicken for the father, stewing chicken soup every day, thinking this was a great supplement. The father was very happy, eating a whole chicken every day, and the family was also very happy. Whenever they saw his vigorous appetite, they felt that cancer was not a problem at all, and the illness would be better soon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Good times didn't last long, their family's money finally ran out, and that father also passed away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why? With medicine, and eating a chicken every day... how could a person with such a vigorous appetite die like that?\" Usopp didn't understand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you know what kind of cancer that father had?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What is it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Intestinal cancer.\" Lord Lord Sima Di stroked the Merry, his expression nostalgic, \"Think about it, a person with intestinal cancer has to insist on eating a whole chicken every day, how much pain does he have to endure? However, that father not only didn't scream, but smiled instead.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This person... why did he do this? Is he a fool?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I actually think he's very stupid too. Just because he didn't want his family to grieve for him, he silently endured all the pain in the last moments of his life. I heard that when that father was dying, he was smiling.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Usopp opened his mouth, but couldn't say anything, obviously realizing something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lord Lord Sima Di continued: \"This ship is like that father who had intestinal cancer, and we are the family members feeding it chicken. The Merry is already covered in scars, but we still want to repair the wounds that cannot be repaired, letting it endure the pain to sail. Holding onto a dying person like this and not letting it rest in peace, don't you think this is very cruel...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But... I...\" The slingshot in Usopp's hand fell to the ground, and he was trembling all over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Instead of letting the Merry endure the pain and live in the world like this, it's better to let us send it away with a smile. This is the best ending for it and for us. Luffy, he must have understood this truth long ago.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>84 Lord Lord Sima Di is also missing?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thank you, Lord Lord Sima Di! That... these few days, please help me say more good things.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No time.\" Lord Lord Sima Di answered decisively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lord Lord Sima Di...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I, really don't have time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lord Lord Sima Di looked at Usopp's aggrieved look, crying and laughing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then what are you going to do?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Remember what I said, what is the vice-captain's duty?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Seems to be... assisting the captain's work and helping the captain make some decisions.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Anything else?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Firmly follow the captain's instructions.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That's right.
