Week 24

A’course th’ first thing that I would do when faced wi’ a bowl ‘o strange treats th’ likes ‘o which I had ne’er seen, I’d definitely eat it ri’ off th’ bat. Ye all are a buncha idiots but I can’t help but love ya. I been laughin’ all week. A’fore ye ask, I don’ know where they came from or where they’re goin’ to. So don’ bother me about it. Hain’t got much preamble fer ye otherwise, so let’s start out.

News

The battle betwixt th’ Navy and Three Days Jack has turned into an all out war. He called reinforcements. Dunno where he got ‘em but he got ‘em. Stay away from Corsair. Neither side’ll appreciate ye joinin’ an’ yer liable to get trammled if ye get in the way. Kingdom itself is devastated. Magistrates been routed. Thirty-five people killed in the capital and an entire village razed to th’ ground. They say that Three Days Jack danced on th’ corpses ‘o the villagers to taunt the Navy and it wouldn’ surprise me much. What’s more, he’s been clamin’ one ‘o ye has been helpin’ him. I’m sure that hain’t true. None of ye can be that blindingly stupid—I hope.

Th’ Emperor of Yuezhong has passed away due to old age, most like. Th’ throne to be goin’ to his great nephew who has no great love ‘o pirates but a great love ‘o Redd’s Wine and’ll likely be acceptin’ tribute. So if ye want ta get in good after some ‘o ye lot poked th’ hornet's nest a few months ago, this’ll do it.

Weather

North: Nothin’ but snow. Heaps ‘o it. An’ ice. Sleet. It’ll be rough sailin’ and I’ll doubt ye’ll get much sunshine out ‘o it so enjoy it when ye do.

East: Snow as well but not as much and not so much ice, but it’ll be bitter cold so keep in mind and try not to sleep out on deck least ye not wake up.

West: Still rain. Great possible chance ‘o fledglin’ kraken. Try to watch those swells. Heard we got some fifty footers out there. Smashed Black Clegg’s armada all ta shit and mayhap Clegg himself if yer lucky. If ye hain’t, well, he’s like as not ta be in a mood.

South: Hot, dry, windy an’ full ‘o kraken by this time. Great time for accidentally settin’ things on fire so watch yerself less ye end up on bits ‘o plankin in hungry kraken infested waters.

S’about all I got fer ye. To ye that are new I answer one question a week. One. So don’t be stupid about it and save yer sass fer someone else.

Ehhh. Why the hell would they wanna suck up to a jerk like that?

[Ace didn't get those weird royal chains of command.

He lived in an internal world where one was supposed to attack people that wronged you.]

Hell if I know, just glad we're not a part of it.

Somebody has to stand up to him if he gets out of hand.

[Toshio actually did understand it, and he found it ridiculous. He was brought up as an important figure in his village, lived in a mansion and everything. But rather than glorify in his wealth, he decided to reject such a lifestyle. He didn't want to be known by his family's history, but instead gain a name for himself with his own two hands.]

[And he completely agrees with Ace.]

I don't really care about making a point or anything. I just don't like when guys like that try to act like they're better than me because they were born rich or whatever.

Stuck-up rich boys without any spines piss me off. [Especially since his first real friend, Sabo, hated himself and worried about Ace finding out that he was a noble--because he was ashamed of being one.]
