Luosha and Rock always believed that the problem of One Piece was a problem of concept.

In Japan, "One Piece" is a very experienced comic. After the end of "Dragon Ball", it took over the banner of "jump" at the end of the 20th world and was known as the Four Kings together with "Chess Spirit King", "Psych King" and "Oh God".

Entering the first decade of the 21st century, "One Piece" endured the other three works and formed a new combination with two descendants, "Naruto" and "Death": the three major migrant workers.

Then he died of his two little brothers.

At the end of the second decade of the 21st century, it is very interesting that the popularity of One Piece in Rabbit Kingdom continues to decline.

Many people believe that the reason for the decline in popularity of "One Piece" is the collapse of combat power and the repetition of routines. However, in Luo Sha's opinion, this is not a problem. These two problems "Dragon Ball" are even more serious.

The biggest problem with the comic "One Piece" should be concepts and growth.

As a big country with rapid growth, Rabbit Kingdom grows very fast in terms of economy and philosophy, and as we all know, Rabbit Kingdom is a socialist country.

The core idea of ​​"One Piece" is "freedom", which is exactly the same as that of American, which is very sensitive.

In the early 21st century when public intellectuals were rampant, the Rabbit people were still very yearning for the so-called freedom in the United States. However, with the rise of King Dao, most Rabbit people also saw clearly what the so-called freedom in the United States was.

In terms of supporting the core concept of the work, "One Piece" and the Rabbit Kingdom are inherently incompatible.

Then there is the issue of growth. A super-length comic that has been serialized for more than 20 years, and it should grow with its readers.

Take "Dragon Ball" as an example. The most obvious change in personality in the past and later periods is Vegeta and Piccolo. Readers can easily see their growth, not only in terms of strength, but also in terms of belief.

And "One Piece"... is still quite passionate, but it is hard to say which major character has truly grown in the soul in the twenty years of serialization.

Luffy is still the Luffy. He is not a hero, but just an ordinary person with passion. Two years later, he looks a bit idiotic.

Readers have grown up, but the characters have not.

So after Rock arrived at the One Piece world, he focused his primary goal on his concept, and used the concept of Rabbit Kingdom to change this chaotic sea.

As for Luffy... Rock completely gave up Luffy. If he couldn't change Luffy, then he would change the whole world.

Ace fell into deep thought, and these words had never been said to him.

Shanks incited Luffy to use one of his arms as the price, allowing Luffy to set his ideal of going out to sea to be One Piece.

As Luffy's sworn brother, Ace was inevitably influenced by Luffy.

Yes, their grandfather is indeed Cappu and a naval hero, but he only spends a month with Cappu every year. In addition, he lives with the bandit Dadan and comes into contact with all kinds of bandits.

They are all very good by nature, but thieves are always thieves.

Shanks would tell them that One Piece is the freest person in the world, but would not tell them what true freedom is and the cost of freedom.

Kap will teach them not to kill and set fire and not to break the law easily, but will not tell them that the law only restricts the bottom line of morality, and that those who abide by laws and regulations are by no means good people.

Dadan will teach them how to survive as pirates and how to escape the pursuit of the navy, but will not tell them why the navy pursues pirates who have not done evil.

"You just said freedom, the so-called freedom is a very broad concept, and it is difficult to explain it to you clearly for a while.

I'll just ask you one question."

Rock extinguished the cigarette butts, looked at Ace, and asked, "Why is it a pirate?

Why do you have to hang that pirate flag? Why are you not a bounty hunter?

When traveling on the sea, you have thousands of identities to choose from. Tear off that pirate flag and claim to be a bounty hunter, a traveler, and a maritime merchant will not have any impact on you.

Could it be that calling yourself a bounty hunter delays your going to sea and breaking into the new world to find Roger's treasure?

Ace, since you hung the pirate flag and called yourself a pirate, you have been affected by the whole pirate, and you unknowingly indulged your desires.

True freedom is not to indulge your own desires and do whatever you want, but to dominate your own desires and behaviors. Only when you know how to discipline yourself can you gain true freedom.”

After a long time, Ace fell to the ground with his head lowered.

Rock looked out and gave Ace an ultimatum: "Now, you have three choices.

First, hijack me, walk out of this room, board the sea boat prepared for you, hang up the pirate flag, and become your pirate again.

When you make this choice, Ace, we are enemies. When we meet again, I will only treat you as an ordinary pirate.

Second, I also hijacked me and boarded the ship, but did not hang the pirate flag, whether it was a bounty hunter or a merchant group.

You can take your crew to do what you have always done, as long as you don't hang the pirate flag and break the law, you are not an enemy of the Navy.

You can pursue freedom, and I will resist the pressure from the world government.

Third, follow me and follow me back to Marinfando, and I will find the best generals for you and teach you to be an upright and righteous person.

You can do things that are really good for the sea, the pressure of the world government and the filth in the navy, and I will also block you.

Choose, Ace.”

Rock held a lightsaber in his hand, condescendingly examining the depressed Ace, examining the young man betrayed by his ideal.

"Mr. Rock, why is it me?" After a long time, Ace asked in a low voice.

"Because you are a special one, you have the potential to become a hero king."

Rock lit another cigarette and said slowly: "Every navy yearns for becoming a hero, and those ordinary navy have indeed become ordinary heroes.

But just as there is One Piece among the pirates, there should naturally be a Hero King among the heroes.

He will take on all responsibilities, leave his back to those who follow him, and guide the heroes' ideas and behaviors with his own practice.

He will use reason as a standard to draw a boundary for the world, tell the world what can be done and what cannot be done, and tell the world why he draws this line.

However, good and evil are relative, and this sentence is not wrong, so he will also bear the sins of the whole world and the mistakes made by heroes in pursuing justice.

The king comes to bear the responsibility, the king comes to allow it, and the king comes to bear the whole world.

Ace, you have the potential to become the king of heroes, end the era of the Great Pirates and bring the sea the light of dawn after the eternal night.”

Ace is different from Luffy. Ace can become a hero and a navy. He is not really passionate and brainless, he will think about some conceptual issues.

As for Luffy...

Luffy once said that heroes are to give meat to other people. He doesn't want to be a hero, so Rock never thought of making Luffy a navy.

The three major players that Cap dreamed of Ace, Sabo and Luffy, Rock had only confidence to change Ace, Sabo was to be decided, and Luffy gave up completely.

There is only one or only one, and Rock wants to do it too.

"You are that hero king."

Ace cried and choked, looking at Rock in a daze, as if he was looking at his father, even though Rock looked two years older than him.

A qualified father not only needs to give his son all the love, but also teaches his children the principles of being a human being and doing things, and guides his children to the right path when they go astray.

Mitsui Ace Shou knelt in front of Rock, burst into tears and choked and said, "Mr. Rock, I want to be a navy..."

Coach, I want to play basketball...

"Good boy."

Rock's eyes showed fatherly affection, gently stroked Ace's forehead. Some people might not like Luffy, but few would not like the character Ace.

"It's good that you can go back to the wrong path, and Lieutenant General Cap will be very happy.

After returning to Marinfando, I will find the best teachers for you, Lieutenant General Cappu, the three generals of the Navy, the Black-War Zefa, and even the Warring States Marshal.

They can become your teacher if you want.

You have the qualifications to become the King of Heroes, and within three years, you will become the one who guides the navy, just like your grandfather, Lieutenant General Cap."

"No!"

Ace wiped his nose, hugged Rock's thighs, and said firmly: "Mr. Rock, if possible, I hope to be your disciple."

"Why?" Rock was slightly surprised.

"Only force can suppress the sea, but it cannot truly save the sea. What the sea needs is the correct ideas and ideas.

Only by following you, the real hero king, can you bring true light to the sea!”

Ace can see through thoroughly. If he learns martial arts but not literature, he will be a vain person. Just as Mr. Zhou Shuren said: Studying medicine cannot save the Chinese!

"Yes, from now on, you will be my disciple of Rock, and at the same time, you will be a disciple of God."

Rock pondered for a moment and agreed to Ace's request.

Ace cried with joy, as if he had seen a bright future.

Then he said in surprise: "Rokexian... Teacher, does there really exist a god in the world?"

“Of course there exists.”

Rock nodded, "There is no god, then what am I?"

Then he explained: "God exists, and perhaps in the future he will not subjectively dislike or love the world, but at least now, he has good intentions for the people on the sea.

And I, our Jedi, was born on the sea because of God's goodwill.

Since you have become my disciple, you should know something. I am a Jedi and the power I use is called the Force.

The Force exists among all things, it is the power of God. The mission of the Jedi warrior is to use the power given by God to clear away all evil in the sea."

This is a bit divine, and Ace is a little confused.

But fortunately, this is the world of One Piece. Normal people in the world of One Piece are rarer than abnormal people. Everyone has extremely ostentatious and distinctive personalities.
