One Piece: The Eternal Flame

water. water.
"Give it some water."

"seawater?"

"Fresh water is fine, aren't clouds all fresh water?"

"But this thing is really a cloud?"

Thousand City Island, in a small round bar, a group of people crowded around a table to see two magical creatures lying on the table - Ace called them Homiz, said to be anthropomorphic objects.

The waiter at the bar was wiping the wine glass at the bar counter, and tiptoed curiously to look at it, but there were a few tall and burly people who blocked their sight, the waiter was a little discouraged, and suddenly his head hurt, and when he looked back, he found that it was the owner of the bar.

The latter was holding a basin of fresh water, and gave him a look, warning him not to look around and do his job well, and then brought the fresh water to Gray with a big smile on his face, "My lord, this is the fresh water you want."

"Oh, thank you." Gray smiled, took out a handful of Baileys from his pocket and handed them to the boss, "Please take out all the wine in the store, if you don't have enough, ask for more."

"Enough is enough!" The owner of the bar usually makes money from the pirates who come and go, but he didn't expect to meet such a bold and unrestrained leader. He hurriedly accepted the money, and his attitude was even more respectful. "Everyone wait a moment, I will bring the wine."

He turned to leave, when Gray suddenly called him, "Boss, I want to ask you something."

"Hey, please tell me, and make sure everything is true."

"Has the navy been here in the past few days?"

"Navy?" The boss didn't know what these pirates wanted to know about the navy, but Gray gave too much, so he didn't answer truthfully, sorry for his conscience, "There was indeed a navy that came here a while ago, and he was a very young admiral. I heard that other navies called him er, Warring States?"

"Yes, it was the Warring States Period. Do you know where he went after that?"

"He inquired about the Rocks Pirates. We don't know where the Rocks Pirates are. Everyone said they didn't know, so he left. It happened a few days ago. I haven't seen them these days. It's strange to say that the naval warship is still parked in the port, which made my business go bad."

The boss complained a few words at the end, and when Gray waved him away, he still smacked his lips and turned to get the wine.

Gray put his hand over the water basin brought by the boss. When the temperature changed, the water boiled instantly and turned into steam, which was finally absorbed by Zeus on the table.

In the final analysis, Zeus is a cloud, and the cloud is made of water. It was almost burned dry by Gray's flames before, but it was severely injured. Now that it got some water vapor, it slowly opened its eyes. Just as it was able to see clearly, it was startled by the crowd staring at it. It floated back a few times, and found that there were also people crowded behind it.

"What do you guys want to do?" Zeus swallowed, and silently rubbed himself next to Prometheus, who was sleeping soundly. This move made him look very cute and pitiful. If there was a woman beside him, he would probably shout "cute".

"You are too cute~~" Latin yelled suddenly, hugged Zeus into his arms, and rubbed his face against Zeus's soft body vigorously.

Oh, by the way, Latin is a ladyboy, so let's count it as a woman.

Gray withdrew his gaze and looked at the dejected Oden who was lying on the table. The latter was still feeling disappointed by his own incompetence, and he also took all the responsibility for Tianyue's departure on his own head.

If I can persist for a while longer, maybe Tianyueshi doesn't need to leave this era and go to the future 20 years later by herself.

"20 years is a long time to you, but to Tianyue, it's just a blink of an eye." Gray comforted him, "Remember this day, just come here and wait for her earlier in 20 years."

Twenty years later, Mita is 20 years old.

According to the timeline of his previous life, Oden also went to sea with Whitebeard at the age of 27. When he met Tianyue later, there seemed to be no difference. At the same age of 27, people who should meet will still meet, and people who should fall in love will still fall in love.

Gray glanced at Ace, who noticed it and tilted his head, as if asking what was wrong.

"Stupid." Gray not only commented in his heart, but also said it out.

"???" Ace pointed at himself, with question marks all over his head, he didn't do anything, why did he say that about him?

Gray didn't explain, and said to Latin: "Latin, give me this guy, I'll ask something."

Latin immediately let go of his hand, and handed over the ravaged and loveless Zeus to Gray.

Gray asked it, "Did Rocks capture the Navy some time ago?"

The reason for asking this question is because there is no one on the warship——Latin and the others have already visited the warship, and it is empty. With the caution of the Warring States period, they will definitely leave a few people on board, but there is no one on board. This is completely inconsistent with the Warring States style of work.

So Gray thinks that during the Warring States period, they should have discovered the traces of Lockes, or the traces that Lockes deliberately left for them, and finally led to the disappearance of the navy.

As Homiz of BIG MOM, Zeus should know a lot of information.

Zeus shook his head frantically, and said firmly, "It's impossible to get information from me."

"If you don't say anything, I'll dry you up." Gray raised the flame, making a gesture to throw it down.

Zeus immediately changed his words, "You mean the navy, right? A lot of navy were indeed arrested some time ago."

"Where are they all?"

"Where can I still be, I was killed long ago." Zeus said casually: "Many people have their souls taken away. Mom was so happy that day."

It thought it could speak freely about the life and death of the navy in front of the pirates, but it didn't know that Gray's eyes were getting colder and colder. It wasn't until the eloquent Zeus felt the temperature change around him that he stopped, and looked at Gray with some fear, "I told you everything I know."

"Then have you ever seen a navy with particularly fluffy and fried hair?"

"Hair. Uh." Zeus wanted to tell a lie, but he was too cowardly, and the other party was too strong. It still told the truth, "I've seen him, he was the most injured, but I didn't have any fear when facing my mother's soul spell, so I have a deep impression of him."

"Is he dead?" Gray's voice was calm, as if he was asking an insignificant and irrelevant person.

Just at this time, the bar owner and another person partnered to bring a large box of drinks over, and shouted: "The wine is here, please call us if you don't have enough."

The topic was interrupted, and Gray was not angry with the boss, "Thank you, I don't need to bother you for the time being."

"Okay, my lord."

"Go on." Bud pushed Zeus to let him continue quickly.
