To the end of the sea [One Piece]

The next day came quickly and they were leaving Fish-Man Island.

The people on the island enthusiastically sent them a lot of supplies, and Usopp, Franky and Zoro helped move boxes one by one to the ship.

Shirahoshi held Luffy and Eina in his hands and cried loudly: "Luffy-sama...are you really leaving...stay for one more day...no, stay for one more month...or maybe a year..."

"You really cried from beginning to end, timid star." Luffy said proudly.

"Speak softly, idiot." Eina knocked on his head, "Oh, when will I teach you the correct way to treat girls..."

It will probably be difficult in this life, don’t even think about it.

Eina smiled and looked at Shirahoshi: "Didn't you promise me? If you cry too much, you will not be beautiful."

Shirahoshi choked and wiped his tears: "Hey! But Ena-sama and Luffy-sama are leaving, and I really can't bear to leave you..."

"I'll see you again." Eina said softly, "When I see Shirahoshi next time, I will tell you interesting stories about our adventures."

"Really!" Bai Xing forgot to cry for a moment, "Will there be a real forest? And there will be birds on the sea? What will the playground look like?"

"Yes." Eina said with a smile, "But my words alone may not be convincing. Maybe Shirahoshi can go to land one day and see the world on the ground with his own eyes."

Bai Xing's eyes radiated with longing: "Just like my mother, go to the human world and see..."

Eina smiled and nodded, glancing at Neptune to the side with her peripheral vision.

The World Conference is about to begin, and maybe some decisive event will happen on Fish-Man Island this year.

The ladies from the Mermaid Cafe also came to see them off.

"Ena!" Ishiri called, "We are here to see you off!"

Eina patted Luffy on the head, gave Shirahoshi another smile, and jumped down to talk to them.

"Is Mrs. Charlie okay?" she asked, "Why are you all here? Don't you need to check the store?"

"Madam is very nice. She gave us a holiday and closed the store for a day!" Mello said with a smile, "When I heard that I came to see you, even Madam became tolerant."

"Ena, please remember to miss us~" Siramira winked mischievously and charmingly, "You must see us next time you come to Fish-Man Island!"

The silver-haired girl said without changing her expression: "Okay."

"Ena is going to bring her boyfriend back next time!" Figas said because of her young age, she spoke without any scruples.

"Hey! Boyfriend or something?" Eina raised her hand stiffly and waved, "I haven't thought about it yet..."

Ishili and Mello looked at each other mysteriously.

"Then don't think about it~" they said with a smile, "A girl like Ena deserves the best."

"Just leave the headaches to others to consider!"

Eina looked left and right, but she didn't understand the riddle they were playing.

"Beautiful ladies." A voice sounded from behind them.

"Mr. Sanji!" Sera said, "I wish you a safe journey!"

The other young ladies nodded and smiled enthusiastically at him.

The blond man bent down in a very gentlemanly manner, and naturally took Ishiri's hand that was hugging Ena's arm, and gently touched it to his lips.

"Thank you for coming to see us off." He said with a smile, "But now, I have to take Ena away."

He winked at the silver-haired girl and said, "We're about to go, Ena."

She looked up and saw her companions ready to go.

Sanji gently put down Ishiri's hand and turned to Eina with a gentle look: "Let's go."

Eina was a little confused, but she still put her hand into his palm. The corners of Sanji's mouth curved in an imperceptible arc, his fingers tightened, and he led her steadily onto the boat.

On the other side, Minister Zuo was handing Nami a new record pointer.

"Hey, new record hands?" Nami looked at the bracelet in confusion, "There are three hands!"

"That's right." Minister Zuo nodded, "It is enough to sail the first half of the Grand Route with just one pointer, but once you go to the new world, more dangerous currents and islands will follow."

"It is even possible that the weather on some islands will change drastically and the magnetism will disappear."

"But if there are three pointers at the same time, you can choose the safest and smoothest one among three different directions. On the contrary, if you see which pointer is shaking violently, it means that the island pointed to is more dangerous."

After hearing this, Nami was not at all happy or grateful as expected, but was shocked.

"What?! Can you predict danger?! Can this thing be destroyed as soon as possible!?"

Minister Zuo was confused: "Ah...? But shouldn't you be better off foreseeing the danger...?"

"Nami! Keep your voice down!!" Even Usopp and Chopper said with tears, "We have already provoked the Four Emperors... We went to the New World to die... You also got someone who can predict where to go. There’s something dangerous…”

They were chatting away, when suddenly a long thing stretched out from above, with Luffy's head at the end.

Luffy wrapped his rubber neck around Nami twice and said with a grin, "What? Oh! It's a new pointer!"

Chopper and Usopp were instantly petrified.

But it was too late.

"Oh!! That trembling pointer in the middle looks very interesting!" Luffy's smile at this time looked like a devil in their eyes, but he said unconsciously: "Our next one Let’s go there!”

"He heard it!!!"

Minister Zuo was covered in cold sweat, and finally understood why they were so resistant to this pointer.

It’s such a tiring life to have a death-defying captain who is always against you!

They boarded the ship noisily, and Luffy jumped from Shirahoshi's hand to the railing.

Sharky shook hands with him.

"When we meet next time, we will definitely train a more powerful undersea army." The steady eldest prince said seriously to Luffy.

"Yes, yes! We will definitely be stronger! Red roll over! Roll over, roll over!"

"Let's have a party together then! Doremi~~~"

His two younger brothers also echoed.

Luffy raised his lips and said, "I'm really looking forward to that!!"

He jumped onto the deck, took a deep breath, raised his arms and shouted those words.

"Brothers - we are sailing!!!"

"oh--!!"

Amid the cheers and blessings of people on the shore, they gradually sailed out of the coastline.

--------

They gradually moved away from the Fish-Man Island and returned to the quiet deep sea when they came.

Franky threw the super-buoyant wooden block into the water and slowly drove upwards using the buoyancy.

Luffy stood at the bow of the boat and suddenly took off his straw hat with his thoughts full of thoughts.

"What's wrong?" Sanji asked him.

The black-haired boy's tone was one of rare suppressed excitement, with nostalgia and longing, and his voice was somewhat low as he said, "When you float up, you'll be in the sea where Shanks is."

Eina heard the name and turned to look at Luffy.

She smiled lightly.

Yes, the bond between Shanks and Luffy is maintained on that iconic straw hat.

The agreement started when he was five years old, and now the nineteen-year-old boy has finally experienced countless adventures, grown into a man capable of being independent, and gradually got closer to the person he longed for.

When they surfaced again, it was no longer the simple Grand Line.

But it is the place where the truly strong gather, the new world.

"Shanks is also looking forward to you." Eina said softly, "Everyone on their ship is paying attention to your news...your affairs."

She said it very casually, but she immediately attracted everyone's attention.

"Ena, how do you know?" Luffy asked, "Have you met Shanks?"

She broke into a cold sweat.

She said it accidentally - although in the final analysis it was not something that needed to be deliberately concealed.

However, after they reunited, no one specifically communicated where they had been in the past two years.

After we met, there were a lot of troubles to deal with, and then we immediately came to Fish-Man Island. Who has the spare time to tell stories one by one? It would be too pretentious for pirates to mention this kind of thing deliberately.

Ena only knew that Luffy was with Rayleigh because she and Luffy participated in the Summit War two years ago and Shanks was very well-informed.

She opened her mouth, feeling that since she brought it up, there was nothing to hide.

"Ah...because I have been practicing on his ship for the past two years."

The whole ship was silent.

Chopper was the first to speak: "Ena?! Are you actually...actually training next to that Yonko?!"

"The redhead who always competes with Hawkeye?" Zoro looked at her with a rare stern look.

"Ena, you are actually with Shanks?!" Luffy was extremely surprised.

Nami touched her chin and remembered something.

"Didn't I mention it when we were at Xia Qi's bar that red-haired Shanks seemed to know Ena?" Nami said, "Shanks carries Ena's photo with him."

"Does that mean Ena knew Shanks when she was a child?" Sanji asked.

"Ena can't remember it herself, so don't ask her." Robin said worriedly.

She heard what Robin said and felt the need to at least respond to it.

"Speaking of this... I have good news for everyone." She cleared her throat, "Well... I have recovered my memory."

? ? ! ! !

They all stared at her, and Ena felt a little embarrassed.

"Uh...how did it become my personal story..." She scratched her head, "Everyone's experiences must have been wonderful. I'm the same as everyone else, but I've only been practicing for two years."

"The place where you practice is not an ordinary place!" Usopp said loudly, "That's the Yonko!"

"Moreover." Zoro looked at her seriously, "You have found the memory."

Her eyes met with his, and Ena suddenly understood the imperceptible concern in Zoro's eyes.

This was something only the original six of them knew.

The dream they made in front of the Upside Down Mountain.

The five of them are still working hard step by step to get closer to their dreams, but her goal when she entered the Grand Line has actually been achieved.

She lowered her head and laughed very softly.

"Yes." Her tone was soft and gentle, with emotional nostalgia and reminiscence, "It turns out that he has recovered. It turns out that it has been so long."

"Because I have no memory, my dream can only be to find memories." She raised her head briskly and looked at each of their faces.

"But now that I have found my past, I also have a future."

"My new dream is to make up for my regrets."

"What kind of dream is this?" Franky asked doubtfully.

She shook her head, her eyes flashing with crystal light.

"How should I put it?" She winked playfully, "I will sail to the end of the world with all of you! Then!"

“Seeing the world change for the better.”

With emotions that only she could understand, she smiled longingly.
