Originally, Claudius planned to stay here until his ship was built before leaving, but plans can never keep up with changes.

When time crossed the threshold of the new year, Claudius had been in the Seven Water City for three months. One morning, he received a Den Den Mushi call from Vice Admiral Garp.

“What’s the matter, Vice Admiral Garp?” Claudius asked with a smile.

There was silence on the Den Den Mushi side, and no one spoke. Just when Claudius wondered if there was something wrong with the signal, Garp’s hoarse and sad voice came.

“Claudius…Jiu passed away.” Cap said softly.

Claudius was also stunned when he heard this, then he picked up a cigar from the table, lit it and put it in his mouth, exhaled a puff of smoke lightly, and his mood became a little sad.

It’s not that he had any feelings for Lu Jiu. After all, she was Roger’s wife, and Claudius was not so shameless. The two had only met a few times. It was just that he thought that so much time had passed, and in the blink of an eye, that great mother could not escape this fate in the end.

As his mind was full of complicated thoughts, Claudius also felt a little regretful. If only he could help a little…

As soon as this thought came up, Claudius shook his head and drove this boring idea out of his mind. He had no obligation to do so, so why bother himself? It’s better not to be so saintly, so as not to end up like Rosinante.

“Ah… She is really harmful. How long has it been?” Claudius sighed softly and asked.

“Twenty months… a full twenty months. Do you understand how much courage and perseverance this takes? Claudius… I have rarely admired others in my life, and Luju is undoubtedly one of them.” Garp said with a trembling voice.

What kind of perseverance and courage does a mother need to let her child stay in her belly for 20 months? And during this period, she was still anxious? She was afraid that when she woke up, the world government would find out something?

“Yes, I admire her too. She is a great mother. How is the child? Is it a boy or a girl?” Claudius asked softly.

He had mixed up everything, and he wasn’t sure if there would be any deviations.

“Boy, he’s cute…” Garp’s tone finally became less low.

“Really? What’s your name?” Claudius asked again.

“Ace…very good? It was Roger’s idea. Luju wanted to follow Roger’s wishes and named him ‘Portgas D.'” Pu smiled and said.

“ACE…? What a nice word, first-rate, the best?” Claudius said with a smile.

“Yeah, he’s the best,” Karp said with a smile.

After a short pause, Garp continued, “I’ve been delayed for a long time. That bastard Sengoku sent me three Den Den Mushi every day to urge me, so I’m going to return to Marineford and will pass by Marijoa. Are you there?”

“Uh… I’m here now.” Claudius said after a moment’s hesitation.

“Seven Water City? What are you doing there?” Karp asked curiously.

“Just build a ship and do some business at the same time.” Claudius was too lazy to explain so much and just said it casually.

Garp was too lazy to understand the details, and asked, “Are you going back to Marijoa? It’s about the same distance from us, maybe we can meet?”

“This…” Claudius hesitated. He really didn’t want to run around anymore. He lived very comfortably in the Seven Water City.

As if he had heard his hesitation, Garp, a tough guy who didn’t care about Claudius’s identity at all, cursed directly: “Claudius, you bastard, are you not trustworthy? Didn’t we agree that I would take care of Luju and you would raise the child? What? Now that Roger is dead, you don’t admit your promise?”

Claudius also got angry after hearing this and started to curse: “You took care of your uncle, you took care of him until he died in one breath, and you still have the right to do that?”

“Do you think I want her to die? Do you think the navy’s search is a joke? I’ve tried my best, okay?” said this guy Garp angrily.

“Okay, okay, you are right. I can’t argue with you.” Claudius said helplessly.

He also knew that Garp might be the person in the world who felt the saddest about Luju’s death. After all, Luju was always taken care of by him, so Claudius did not provoke Garp again.

“Tell me what we should do? Do you want me to take the child to Marineford?” Cap asked in a deep voice.

Claudius scratched his head and said, “Okay, okay, I got it. I’ll go back to Marijoa now and we’ll meet there. You hand the child to me and then go and be a good sailor!”

“Okay, but let me make this clear first. Although I’m handing the child over to you, I also have the right to see him… After all, I’ve already decided to raise this child as my own grandson.” Karp said in a deep voice.

“You are such a talented person. Roger was your good rival, but you still wanted to take advantage of him after he died. He was his father and you were his grandfather, so you are a generation older than him. But after he died, he became your son?” Claudius said with a smile.

With me here, it’s not a big deal, but in the original story, Whitebeard is just Ace’s ‘father’, and Garp is directly the ‘grandfather’, a generation older than Whitebeard!

But before he could make more jokes, Claudius suddenly realized that he seemed to be taken advantage of by Garp. After all, at his age, he couldn’t possibly be a grandfather, right? At most, he could be a father?

“Damn, you are plotting against me?” Claudius cursed.

“Ahahahaha, what’s the calculation? Am I not old enough? It would be embarrassing to have a son suddenly. What do you want Dragon to think? Will he think that I think he is useless and I am going to train another one?” Karp said with a big laugh.

Claudius said seriously, “I think Dorag is lonely out there alone. If you can find him a brother, it will be a good story in 20 years.”

“Stop talking nonsense. See you in Marijoa!” Garp seemed to think that he couldn’t win the argument with Claudius, so he didn’t respond at all. After he finished speaking, he hung up the Den Den Mushi.

Claudius cursed at the old man, then hung up the Den Den Mushi helplessly, slowly exhaled a puff of smoke and said, “Ace…?”

Do you think you have a good relationship with children? Enel hasn’t even grown up yet, and now there’s another baby coming?

Fortunately, he didn’t need to do too much by himself, and he could find two skilled wet nurses in Mary Joa.

“Anyway, when this kid grows up, if I train him well, he can at least become one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea… not a loss.” Claudius thought with a smile on his face.
