[One Piece] Courage to Dream

Chapter 269 Chapter 267·Never left, because you are still there

Chapter [-] Never left, because you are still there

"That's right..." Kirk's eyes were leisurely, but tender, "That Gary Shipyard is my family's ancestral property."

"Really?" Jyoti exclaimed.

This kind of feeling can only be understood by wanderers who go out. The scenery of the homeland that I thought I would never see again came back to my eyes. The kind of unreasonable joy is indescribable.

Kirk withdrew his gaze and said with a smile, "Gary Kirk...Gary is my last name."

It was originally a very serious + sensational moment, but——

The children couldn't help but feel crooked in their hearts, complaining wantonly:

Fuck, he really is gay! !Do you think we can't see it by adding an "r" in it?It's all put directly in the surname, it's too ostentatious! !

"Something happened five years ago. Although it lasted for a year...but the shipyard had to be closed," Kirk continued to speak casually regardless of the direction of the crooked building. "Today, I finally got it in my hands again. inside..."

Good thing he's not alone.

Several older employees followed behind and responded.

"Kirk, we've bet the rest of our lives on you!" They all said with a smile, they were not too young, and the youngest was no less than forty, and their faces were covered with vicissitudes.

Without pretending to be modest, Kirk put his hand on his heart and said sincerely to them: "Well... thank you, please leave it to me!"

Some kind of unspeakable emotion flows between them.

These are the feelings and fetters that the newcomers cannot understand.

The old employees briefly described to others that after the collapse of the Gary shipyard that year, these old employees, like other former Gary employees, were forced by life and had to transfer to other shipyards.

As Gary's successor, Kirk is young and has excellent skills. He was especially invited by his factory at the time, but Kirk, who was still a young boy, refused because——he said he wanted Gary to stand up again .

Bearing the ups and downs alone, holding the slim hope...

This year, Kirk brought Gary's name back into their sight.

When they heard that the new Gary was going to be built, they didn't expect to be so happy. The name "Gary" had already been baked into their souls.

Without hesitation, they quit their jobs and gathered under Kirk's flag again.

The shipyard, which has been passed down for a hundred years, has changed its time and location. It is not as luxurious and hot as it used to be. It is small in scale and even looks very rudimentary from the outside, but... it has stood up again.

The new Gary is back on the road.

It will do every job responsibly, adhering to the concept of quality first, and keep going.

Maybe one day, it will grow from a small shipyard like Gary back then, gaining a reputation far and wide, and continue its former glory.

"Gary never left, because you are all still..." Amidst the sound of firecrackers for the opening, Kirk could only be heard saying silently.

Smiling softly, Kirk waved his hand and together with the old employees shouted out to the blue sky the declaration that had been buried in his chest for many years: "We are back!!"

——Gary Shipyard, back!
