Chapter 4: The arrangement of Rouge and her son

Marineford. 

Rouge, who hid her appearance with a black robe, had an expressionless face. She lowered her head and walked slowly between the stone buildings, the flat cement floor under her feet was so hard and cold. 

She was surrounded by a dozen marines, all dressed in loose, white cloaks with the shield of justice. Some of them were two or three meters tall, and each of them exuded a strong aura that made the marines on both sides of the street raise their chests and salute. 

Just now, as soon as she got off the warship, Navy Admiral Sengoku handed her over to the Vice Admiral who was leading her team in front of her. 

Roger was imprisoned on another warship. After the spectacular and massive Gate of Justice opened, navy hero Garp led the team sailing in another direction. 

Rouge knew that he was being taken to the extremely terrifying underwater prison, Impel Down. 

After the ship Roger was on disappeared from sight, she didn't look away from the direction she left for a long time. 

Rouge raised her eyes slightly and looked at Vice Admiral Tsuru. She looked to be about forty or fifty years old. Although the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes were already beginning to be visible, there were no white strands in her dark blue hair. The two-meter-tall figure also seems somewhat normal. 

The key is that she doesn't have too strong aura, which gives people a very gentle feeling. Also, I've heard Roger mention her before, and she seems like she's a decent marine named Tsuru. This improves Rouge's mood a little and allows her to relax for the moment. 

But she doesn't care much about these marines, she is more concerned with how the World Government will treat the child she carries in her womb, after all, this is the blood of the Pirate King. 

As for her own life, to be honest, she didn't care much about her. 

Under the gaze of many navy officers, the group of people finally arrived at the gate of a camp in the west. She saw that two female soldiers were guarding the door on both sides. Looking further inside, many small buildings and a large playground could be clearly seen. 

Rouge followed Tsuru to the camp and found that the place was full of female marines. At that moment, she seemed to understand that she was being taken to an area exclusively for female soldiers. 

"You go back and rest, and leave the rest to me," the Vice Admiral stopped and told the officers escorting them. 

"Yes, Vice Admiral!" The officers responded without hesitation and then dispersed. 

She then turned her eyes to Rouge and said with a smile, "Come on, I'll take you to see your room." 

Rouge decided to remain silent. 

Tsuru didn't care that she didn't respond, she turned around and continued walking while Rouge followed him in silence. Soon the two of them arrived at a very simple house. 

"This is my house, and you will live with me from now on. No one will enter without permission and there are always female doctors in the camp. You can live here in peace." 

After hearing Vice Admiral Tsuru's words, Rouge looked at the atmosphere inside the house. Golden sunlight shone through the glass windows. There wasn't much furniture, but there were beds, tables, and cabinets available. It was very clean when she entered, and the air was filled with a faint fragrance of flowers. 

"But you have to pay attention to some things, that is, not leaving this small house without permission. After a while, you can walk around the camp with someone to accompany you, but this is already the limit. You must not leave the camp." 

Rouge nodded, lifted the black hood covering her head, and asked softly, "What is the world government going to do to my son?" 

Tsuru noticed the worry and concern in Rouge's eyes and smiled kindly. 

"The order issued by Fleet Admiral Kong is to put you under house arrest in the women's barracks, and your son will also live here until he is six years old, but after he is six years old, he will study at the Naval Primary School like other children in the island and will be able to return home every seven days. In addition, he will have two long vacations a year, thirty days each. When he is twelve years old, he will be promoted to the Navy Headquarters Academy. After four years, he will be awarded a military rank based on your performance and you will officially become a qualified Marine." 

Vice Admiral Tsuru described in a few words the future life of the child in Rouge's womb after birth, and at the same time, she told the other party to relax, that there will be nothing bad and that her child will grow up healthily. 

"Become a Marine." Rouge looked at Vice Admiral Tsuru in disbelief, "Roger's son can also be a marine?!" 

"Haha, this is the news I received, but you are wrong about one thing." 

She shook her head and sighed. When she heard from Fleet Admiral Kong about the World Government's arrangements for Rouge and her son, she felt quite surprised. And listening to the voice and tone on the other end of the phone, it was obvious that Fleet Admiral Kong himself was quite surprised as well. 

"What thing?" Rouge suddenly became nervous and heard her continue: "The child in your womb cannot bear Roger's last name nor yours, and you cannot tell him that Roger is his father. You must remember this clearly." 

"According to the order issued by the World Government, once it is discovered that your son knows his life experience before the ban is lifted and shows hostility towards the World Government or the Navy, he will be arrested or even executed! " 

Rouge was silent for a moment after hearing this. Tsuru was in no hurry, he just looked at her silently, waiting for her response. 

"I understand, this child will be a person without a surname from now on." Rouge said softly, caressing her flat belly. 

She knew that this was the best result. It was beyond her imagination that the world government could treat her so well. 

"Well, just think about it. By the way, I also have a sister named Gion. She comes to see me from time to time. I'll introduce her to you when the time comes." 

"OK." 

A few days later, the latest issue of World Economic News Paper appeared and was carried by hundreds of thousands of news birds to the various maritime areas, kingdoms, islands, and even ships at sea. Looking at the front page of the newspaper, everyone was stunned for a moment, and then bursts of exclamations could be heard one after another. 

[One Piece Gol D. Roger was arrested by the Navy!] 

The article briefly introduces Admiral Sengoku and Naval Hero Garp, who led Vice Admirals Sakazuki, Borsalino, and Kuzan, as well as five warships to successfully capture Roger on Baterilla Island in the South Blue. The public execution will take place at midday on January 1 next year in Marineford Justice Square. 

He even mentioned that Roger's birthday is December 31st and praised the World Government for allowing Roger to celebrate his birthday, which was very kind. 

Suddenly, the whole world was shocked by this thin newspaper, especially the waters of the "New World" where the great pirates gathered. 

On the Moby Dick, the white-bearded blonde, Edward Newgate, held a huge bottle of wine in his hand and looked silently in the direction of Marineford. Under his feet was the newspaper he had read, surrounded by the entire crew. The members looked at each other and for a while only the sound of waves could be heard on the deck.
