[One Piece/Arknights] For Whom the Ode Tolls?

——The sky here is blue, and the sea is as blue as the sky.

Greta was lying on the beach and thought quietly. She really had no strength at all. She could only let herself be swallowed up bit by bit by the waves crashing on the beach. She watched the satchel/bag containing letters and weapons disappear. About to be washed away, she finally remembered, stretched out her hand hard, and tried to pull the bag back——

"Hey! Little girl! Are you okay!"

Someone was calling her, but Greta opened her mouth and could only make a weak breath, and then the darkness was spinning in front of her eyes.

When she woke up again, she was already lying in the soft quilt. Greta sat up on the bed and looked at the boy who walked in with a tray in his hand.

"You're awake," the boy wearing a white-spotted plush hat put the food and water on the bedside table, folded his hands on his chest and stepped back a distance, "Let's eat something first."

"Thank you." With a grateful heart, Greta clasped her hands piously in the strange eyes of the young man, "Then I'll start."

Trafalgar Law watched the girl with strange behavior finish up the porridge quickly, a blush finally appeared on her pale face, and then she looked over curiously with her light eyes open.

"Where is this?"

"Feiyan Island."

"Huh? Did I go the wrong way? I don't remember this island on the route."

Greta was a little confused. Although this was her first time sending messages to Rhode Island as a trainee messenger as an intern at the Rutland Notary Office, her memory had never been bad. There was no name on the map in her memory. The place of Feiyan Island.

"——Hey, don't move around, you are still very weak now!"

When Luo saw the girl lifting the quilt and trying to get out of bed, he spoke to stop her. Although Greta was weak, she had already jumped out of bed deftly and ran to the black satchel placed on the chair, and dug out the map from the file. : "The map is here!!! Oops, it has been damaged by sea water!!! What should I do?"

"Where are you from?" Luo glanced casually. Most of the drawings and words on the paper were blurred by the sea water. Only a few words could be seen clearly, but he couldn't understand them. " Where is this text?"

"This is Lateran writing. I am Greta, a trainee messenger from the Notary Office of Lateran."

Greta thought for a while, but still did not say the code name, but directly told him her real name: "Thank you for saving me, what is your name?"

"Rutland? For those of you who haven't heard of me, I am Trafalgar Law." The boy lowered the brim of his hat a little, "Also, it's not me who saves you, it's Wolfe."

The old man whom Luo called Wolf came back soon. Greta, who had eaten and drank enough and regained some energy, also learned from him that this was not Rhode Island, or even any place on the continent of Terra. place, but a whole new world.

After learning about this, Greta clutched her small black satchel in confusion - what should she do? Is there any way to get her back? She had just started working as a messenger, and she had not yet arrived at Rhodes Island to meet Miss Ettola and Senior Sister Fiametta, whom she admired most.

Even though she stood out at a young age and became a trainee messenger at the Rutland Notary Office, Greta was still only a young girl of thirteen or fourteen, and she still inevitably felt frustrated and lost. Wolfe didn't say anything, just asked Luo and the other four children to take turns taking care of Greta.

Fortunately, Greta has the tenacity and optimism of the Rutlanders. After a few days of being slightly decadent, she slowly accepted the fact that she had arrived in a foreign continent, and began to work for the Wolfe family while asking questions. All kinds of news from this world.

As a messenger, Greta is still very proud of her ability to organize and extract information. In less than a month, she has roughly figured out the structure of the world from newspapers, books, news and Wolfe's mouth, and He set his sights on the treasure, Onepiece, buried by the legendary Pirate King Gol D. Roger in Raff Drew.

However, her thoughts were severely hit by the information she found next. Rafdru, who buried the One Piece, was located at the end of the Grand Line. For hundreds of years, no one except the Roger Pirates had ever arrived. To go to "Lavdru", you need to collect four pieces of "Road Sign Historical Text". Greta frowned, stared at the yellowed paper, and let out a sigh.

"What exactly is the historical text of a road sign?"

"Gray~ It's time to eat~"

"Come on—"

Hearing the call of the little white bear Bebo, Greta closed the book in response, put it back on the desk carefully, and ran out of the room. Xia Qi and Pei Jin were already sitting at the table. When they saw her coming out, they also raised a hand covered with crumbs to say hello to Greta.

"Greta, it's too late! Peggy and I have finished eating!"

"Greta, you are reading again. This is quite similar to Luo. I just want to doze off when I see something like that. I really admire how you persisted."

"I want to find clues to go home," Greta said seriously, "but what I'm looking for may be difficult to find."

"What are you looking for?"

"I said don't laugh at me," Greta was silent for a moment, lowering her head to stir the soup in the dish. "Don't scold me either, I'll be angry."

"Tsk," Luo curled his lips, "I won't mock you."

"one piece"

Luo, who was sitting opposite Bebo, squirted all the cream soup in his mouth onto the big white bear with a pop, earning a resentful look from the latter, "Pfft, cough, did I hear you wrong just now? What did you say?" ?!”

"I said I wanted to find Onepiece. My hometown may be related to it," Greta glared at Luo accusingly. "You can't laugh at me for being a liar! You just said you wouldn't laugh at me!"

"Pfft, hahaha, sorry, but, it's really funny."

Xia Qi and Pei Jin also turned their heads away, trying to hide their distorted expressions. Greta slapped the table angrily, "But! I really can't find the way home! So even if it's There’s little hope, but I want to try it too!”

Facing her stubborn eyes, the ridicule at the corner of Luo's mouth also subsided. He looked at the girl carefully and spoke slowly.

"Whatever you say, there are a lot of people who want to go to the Grand Line every year and then die on the way. Besides, do you have a boat? To go to the Grand Line, in addition to passing through the windless zone, the first half of the journey is from the Upside Down Mountain. There are seven routes in total in the Pirates' Cemetery. The route can only be chosen at the initial Upside Down Mountain. Once you start sailing, you cannot change it. The second half is where the New World is ruled by the Four Emperors. If you go there alone, you will die in vain. .”

"I know," Greta sighed, "Forget it, anyway, I won't give up so easily!"

"Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah," Luo said perfunctorily to her without raising his head, "So have you decided which pirate group you want to join, or should you form one yourself, Captain Greta?"

Amid the rustling laughter of Xia Qi and Pei Jin, Greta's face turned red, "I won't become a pirate!"

Luo's hand holding the spoon paused, and he raised his eyes to look at the girl who was so angry that the brown and white feathers beside her ears exploded: "Then you want to become that kind of wasteful navy?"

"No," Greta refused without hesitation. She had learned well that not all marines were good people, and after joining the navy, it would be even less convenient for her to investigate and find Onepiece. "I want to be a messenger. Find people I can get on board with and go with them."

Even if the hope is slim, as a Rutland citizen, she will never back down easily!

Even if she really can't be found, she can go to sea and wander around for a while. Maybe one day she will become a famous messenger and become an excellent bard like Miss Etola.
