Pirates: There is no prohibition of fishing in Marijoa.

"Don't waste time, just decide."

"It's not a big deal. I have many other tricks up my sleeve."

Jerry continued to speak after looking around at Skarr and Michal who had just gathered around him, and then at Deuce who was packing up the toolbox after helping him.

Seeing that he insisted, several people looked at each other and could only nod in agreement.

After the decision was made, the pirates began to get busy, and soon the ship sailed away from the shore.

On the once bustling coast, only Jerry and the small boat "Charger" were left.

On Ace's side, there were no other people around, and the two men who had already stopped fighting could be said to be strangers to each other.

After seeing that Yamato has always hated and even been hostile to Kaido, Ace has been slowly backing off.

Although they smashed Kaido's dragon sculpture on the island, neither of them cared about it.

Then they talked about a lot of topics of their own, like Yamato liked to talk about Oden, and Ace liked to talk about Luffy.

Even though their topics were completely unrelated, they still chatted enthusiastically.

If Yamato had not been believing in and waiting for the prophecy that has been circulating in Wano Country for more than ten years, she would have wanted to go out to sea with Ace right now.

They even took out a few bottles of wine from somewhere, drank and chatted happily, believing that they would meet again in the future.

While chatting, the two walked to the beach and saw Jerry was the only one lying on the [Charger] bored, with a fishing rod fixed by his hand, looking leisurely and contented.

"Oh? You guys have gone from fighting to farting?"

Watching the two of them still chatting about all sorts of things, Jerry crossed his hands behind his head, surrounded by a lazy atmosphere.

"Ah, are you the only one here?"

Turning his head and looking around, Ace scratched his head and asked.

"It's obvious. I asked them to go back to Jiuli first."

"Then let's go back too."

Ace said, preparing to jump on board.

"Female Oden? That's a handcuff bomb, right?"

"Do you need me to help you untie it?"

Jerry glanced at the handcuffs on Yamato's hands, the chains of which had been broken.

"No, it's not the right time yet. I want to wait a few more years."

Shaking her head, Yamato was a little tempted, but she firmly believed in the prophecy left by Oden.

Thinking that I have been waiting for so long, a few years won’t make a difference.

Seeing that she was sticking to her beliefs, Ace moved his lips but didn't want to say anything more.

"That's it, Yamato, bye."

"Okay, Ace, and Liar, bye."

"Goodbye, gender-changed Oden."

After saying goodbye to each other, Ace turned around and jumped onto the boat, carrying Jerry back towards Jiuli.

All that was left behind was a ruined and damaged Onigashima. I think when Kaido and his men come back and see the base camp in this state, they will definitely be furious.

……

The next day, at the coast of Yaikasa Village.

"Brother Jerry! Brother Ace! Take me to the sea too!"

Xiaoyu looked at the pirates preparing to set sail and said reluctantly.

"Xiaoyu, you are only about 4 years old. When you grow up a little bit and we become a stronger pirate group, we will come back."

Ace grinned and promised.

"Xiaoyu, you are still not used to the wind and waves on the sea."

"Remember, the secret treasure I left for you is a cave with a lot of frozen food in it. Don't tell anyone except your master."

"Those are healthy and uncontaminated foods that you can eat with confidence."

"Grow up well, and when we come back again, we will definitely turn this place back into a country where everyone can have enough food to eat."

Jerry smiled and stroked the hair of this lively, cheerful and kind-hearted little girl, whispering instructions.

That was his masterpiece that he secretly left behind during the time he stayed there. It wasn't that he didn't want to tell other villagers, but he was afraid of gossip.

After they leave, if word gets out that there is a lot of edible meat stored here.

This may not be a good thing in a country where famine is raging.

The reason why this was given to Xiaoyu is that although Xiaoyu is young, she is very sensible and can distinguish the importance of things.

Second, her master, Tenguyama Hichetsu, is actually the former general here, Kozuki Sukiyaki, and he should know better how to arrange these resources.

"Okay, then next time you come back, can you take me with you and let me be your partner?"

Hearing the two of them say this, Xiaoyu knew that she was still too young, but she continued to persist, hoping to go out to sea with everyone in the future.

"Haha, you have to be strong enough to go out to sea."

The pirates nearby heard it, and someone turned around and said with a smile.

"If you become a charming female ninja when we come back next time, we will take you with us."

Ace said to Xiaoyu with a smile, probably because he heard some rumors about Wano Country from the villagers.

"Haha, don't talk nonsense about being seductive or anything like that, just be a female ninja, Xiaoyu will definitely be able to do it."

Thinking of the ninjas in the next field, Jerry laughed with anticipation.

"Well! Then it's settled!"

Seeing that everyone had made an agreement, Xiaoyu smiled happily.

"Brother Jerry, Brother Ace, these two hats are made by me and are for you."

Xiaoyu took out the bamboo hat that she had been carrying on her back and handed it to the two of them.

"You wrote it really well, Xiaoyu! No wonder you were able to teach me."

Ace took the hat and looked at it. He had now learned how to weave it.

"It's beautiful and practical. I finally don't have to be exposed to the wind and sun when fishing. I'll take it without hesitation!"

Looking at the hat, Jerry felt that it could at least increase his fishing endurance by 10.

After that, everyone did not stay for too long. After saying goodbye to the villagers, the pirate ship slowly sailed away.

After staying in Wano Country for several weeks, the Spade Pirates set out again and continue on the road to challenge the top of the New World.

……

The Spade Pirates appeared again on the sea of ​​the New World after sailing for a period of time.

That morning, the fog was thick, and Ace and his companions quietly landed on a small island.

This small island is one of the supply points of the Whitebeard Pirates. After such a long journey, the Spade Pirates are finally about to face the peak.

Whitebeard is a monster who once rivaled the Pirate King Roger. He is now the strongest man in the New World and the pirate closest to [ONE PIECE].

Such titles and rumors all appeared in the intelligence obtained by Scarr's investigation.

Even so, Ace was fearless and chose to continue challenging this goal.

For him, [ONE PIECE] and the like, One Piece and the like would not arouse much interest in him.

Maybe, he simply wanted to reach the top and turn the world upside down.

Only in this way can he get rid of the oppressive feeling he has been silently enduring for many years as the son of the Pirate King, being hated, discriminated against and cursed by all the common people in the world, and break the invisible shackles and dark cage that have always existed in his heart.

In this way, he can find the meaning of being born into this world and living in the present.
