Red Beard's grin grew broader the more he saw the situation before him… Though his heart told him otherwise.
Why? Why did it keep giving a million warnings?
He had halted and stopped operations just because of his nerves.
Was it getting old? Was that it?
Well, at age 41, he was indeed old... 'Grandpa' old... Some people his age still saw great-grandchildren.
Married at 14... 25~27, you feel like a true man, seeing your children marry too. By 35, your great-grandchildren also marry or have slept around and birthed children. And before you know it, you're a great-great-grandparent by 45~55 if you make it that long.
So at 41, could it be that his body was getting old and worrisome? Red Beard felt it ridiculous, pushing his intuitive thoughts behind.
It was time to move out!
He raised his blade, allowing it to glisten in all directions.

Charge!
