To the end of the sea [One Piece]

No one expected Capone Becky to be here.

Qifeng had told him before she left that this was her choice to repay her kindness, and it would be best if the Flame Tank Pirates evacuated first.

But the whole group came without any complaints to take their boss lady home.

"Bates." Capone Becky lowered his head and said to his son in his arms, "keep all this in your eyes..."

"Dad is here to take mom and sister home."

"Because this is how Dad lives!!!"

+ + +

Owen angrily covered his injured shoulder and narrowed his eyes to look at the flying pirate flag.

Capone saw Qifeng being protected by Eina from a distance, and he breathed a sigh of relief. However, when he saw Eina's actions of only defending but not attacking, he stepped on the edge of the bow with one leg, raised his gun and shouted: "Go ahead -!!"

He directed the Nostra Castro to drive straight towards the island at full speed: "Kick Owen out of the car! I'll pick you up!"

"The things I teach you - are not meant for you to be bullied to your head!!!!"

Eina looked at the man standing on the bow of the ship with fighting spirit and smiled.

"This is decent..." She whispered, stood up and gave Owen a kick without hesitation.

He groaned and was kicked out of the car.

Seeing that the Nostra Castro was about to hit the land, Sanji took a deep breath and said, "Won't it break up?"

"No." Eina said, "There is a reason why it is called the Flame Tank."

Under everyone's disbelieving gaze, the hull switched modes and turned into the tracks of a tank the moment it hit the land.

"The Nostra Castro can be used both on land and sea." Eina raised her lips, "Okay... now how do we transfer to the ship?"

She looked at Owen, who was catching up behind her, and it was obvious that she couldn't stay for a second to transfer.

Sanji straightened his back, stood on the bow of the boat, blew out the last puff of smoke, and put out the cigarette butt: "Then leave it to me."

Eina and Bryn Qifeng exchanged glances and clung to the edge of the car.

The next second, the moment they crossed paths with the Nostra Castro, Sanji jumped out of the car and kicked the bottom of the wooden cart hard.

In Brynn's exclamation, they took advantage of Sanji's powerful kick, and even the cake and the car flew high into the air, rising steadily into the air!

"Make the deck clear, Becky!!" Sanji yelled from underneath the car, "We're going down!"

They quickly moved out of the way to a sufficiently clear area.

With a muffled sound, they landed on the deck intact. The top of the soft cake shook dangerously for a few times and finally returned to calm.

"Success!!!" the people in the Flame Tank cheered.

"As expected of Germa 66..." Werther was so moved that he even took out a small handkerchief to wipe his tears.

"They say I have nothing to do with them!" Sanji roared.

+ + +

"Nicejob." After Capone, Becky and Qifeng hugged tightly, Qifeng hugged Bates in tears, while Capone turned to Eina.

She stood opposite him, and for a moment she seemed to be dreaming back to that time.

That high-spirited man and the young and calm girl.

After she completed a task, he would habitually praise her with "Nicejob".

"I said I would send Qi Feng back to you safely," she said.

"I didn't say those words to Qifeng." Capone turned his head and said, "Thank you for protecting Qifeng...but that sentence was not because of Qifeng that I warned Owen."

[How dare you try to touch her? ? ! ! 】

The softness and explanation that a middle-aged man can show can only go so far.

Not because of Qi Feng, but because of her.

The twelve years of separation between her and him suddenly disappeared at that moment.

After all, what does she care about?

In fact, as she grew up, she no longer felt so upset about the saying that she was a weapon.

The little girl who lost her family early back then just wanted to be loved.

Even though she lived a life of licking blood every day, she never once doubted her father.

Deep down in her heart, she longed for a harbor where she could feel at ease. Even if she spent all her energy outside and worked hard for everything, it was all worth it if she could have a hug that made her fall back with peace of mind.

Her home was broken, and he was the only one who reached out to her and gave her a place to stay.

If he hadn't saved her, she would have withered in that desperate night.

If she hadn't escaped from him, she wouldn't have met all the people who followed him.

She will not meet the Redfors that teaches her about freedom, the Golden Mellie that allows her to regain her dreams, and the Wanli Sunshine that makes her learn to love life.

She has a home, a dream, and a lot of love on this vast sea.

So when the girl whose inner gap was filled re-examined the starting point of everything, she found that it was so easy to reconcile with the past.

"Am I the one who would make you care like this?" she asked softly.

Never for a moment did Capone Becky answer her more earnestly.

"you are my family."

"I have always - always regarded you as my daughter."

The silver-haired girl turned her head sharply.

Her shoulders shook slightly and she said to him hoarsely: "Thank you."

"Hey, hey, it's too much to say thank you for something like this..." He said with a headache, but was interrupted.

"I should have said this to you a long time ago." She turned her back to him and whispered, "Very long ago - I should have said thank you to you."

"For everything, for myself."

So this time, the awkward middle-aged father began to feel uncomfortable.

But fortunately, this time the father and daughter are no longer just the two of them, and the missing roles in the family have been completed at this moment.

Qifeng came over with Bates in his arms and said with a smile: "Okay, okay. We have more important things to do now. When everything is over, you can chat as long as you want."

Eina wiped away her tears and turned around, giving her a bright smile.

+ + +

They rushed straight into Coco Town and took a small road from the island to the southwest coast.

After getting rid of Owen's pursuit, they drove towards the direction agreed with Nami at full speed.

The ship began to move smoothly, and Sanji also began to direct the chefs to perform the final decoration work.

"The cream should be spread evenly, and the chocolate should be placed at the end. Pay attention to keeping it warm."

"Don't destroy the cake, step on the ladder and go up slowly."

"Is the fruit ready?"

Eina watched him and Bryn working in an orderly manner, and was temporarily relieved and walked to Qifeng's side.

When Bates saw her coming, he waved his little hands and made babbling noises, leaning towards her.

Qi Feng was stunned and looked at Eina with some embarrassment.

"It's okay." She smiled, stretched out her arms to hug Bates, and gently rocked his little body. The child's unique warm breath made her heart feel soft.

She suddenly saw Gotti directing several people to carry a barrel.

Eina returned Bates to Qifeng, frowned and walked over: "What are you doing?"

"Oh, it's Naraku." Gordy wiped the sweat from his head, "It's the poison that the godfather asked us to prepare, and we're about to put it into the cake."

She immediately reached out to stop their actions.

"Becky asked them to let it go?" she said, "Don't even think about it, Sanji wouldn't agree to it."

"Why does he need to agree to such a thing?" One of his subordinates said, "This is the best time to assassinate Big Mom. If not, when will you do it?"

"That's right." Capone rushed over after hearing the sound and stood aside and said, "You should understand best, Ena. Assassination is our profession and the purpose of this time. Although the contract with you has ended However, it does not prevent us from continuing to achieve our goals.”

Ena sighed.

"It seems we really can't be the same, dad." She spread her hands, "I'm sorry, although I can understand your behavior, I have to stop you."

"My partners and adventure are my top priorities in life right now." She gave a helpless smile, "And I want to defend the fruits of our chef's work."

Capone held his cigar in his mouth with a gloomy expression: "Are you kidding me, Ena? Such childlike remarks——"

"She's right." A long leg lifted up and kicked the bucket of poison cleanly into the sea.

The blond man walked up to the silver-haired girl and gently held her shoulders, meeting Capone's eyes uncomfortably.

"I will not allow you to poison the cake." Sanji stood there with a firm gaze, "You can carry out any assassination, but only after my guests have eaten their fill."

“Feeding anyone who is hungry – that’s the job of a chef!”

Capone looked at him angrily.

"You kid..." he said through gritted teeth, "didn't you think that if your cake couldn't compare to the one that took months to make, BigMom wouldn't wake up because of your cake? Not only will your companions suffer, but we will also die on the spot together!"

Eina turned around, scooped out a small spoonful from the remaining cream bucket, and put it into Capone's mouth without rejection, successfully blocking all his subsequent words.

Capone Becky's pupils shrank for a moment, and he fell straight back!

"godfather!!!"

The members of the Flame Tank Pirates immediately raised their guns and aimed them at Ena.

"What did you do to Godfather Naraku!"

"Damn it! Although you seem to be a very important person to the godfather, I didn't expect you to poison the godfather!"

Only Werther looked at her in surprise without raising the gun: "Ena, what happened to Godfather?"

The corners of the silver-haired girl's mouth raised: "Let him speak for himself."

Capone moved his lips, and a faint blush appeared on his cheeks.

"dying…"

Even Werther felt nervous.

"This cream...is so delicious...it's to die for..."

Everyone was shocked!

"Is it because it's so delicious?" they shouted in unison.

Eina smiled softly.

"Never doubt Sanji's skill." She frowned, "He is the best chef in the world."

She and Sanji looked at each other, and the latter looked at her with a complicated smile.

+ + +

At the same time, the situation of the Wanli Sunshine has reached its end.

Chased by the Trotlan army led by Perospero and Big Mom himself sitting on Prometheus for a whole night, the Nami people resisted the attacks and sailed hard, and the hull even had several damages.

Chopper took out the blue wave ball and performed the final stage of transformation. Garrott could no longer hold his moon lion form and was lying in the cabin sleeping.

Brook tried his best, and Nami used thunder clouds to instigate Zeus.

Relying on Jinbe's innate racial advantages, they controlled the optimal sea currents and barely maintained a certain distance.

But BigMom's patience has reached its limit.

Prometheus exploded into a huge fireball under her control, burning them like a solar eclipse and approaching them little by little. BigMom lifted Napoleon like a terrifying witch.

At the moment when Nami and the others fell into despair, BigMom stopped moving her hands.

She twitched her nose: "What a sweet aroma..."

Capone Becky's pirate ship appeared in the distance on the other side of the sea!

Even Perospero and the others breathed a sigh of relief.

"Thank God, Brynn and Qifeng really recreated the cake..." He wiped the cold sweat on his head, "But, can that cake really stop mom..."

On the other side, Eina and others had already seen the terrifying fireball.

It was getting dark, and the moment they had been waiting for finally arrived.

"I accept your agreement." Capone said, "I will be responsible for luring BigMom away with the cake and feeding her well. But after that, anything we do has nothing to do with you."

"Yes." Sanji said, "My task is only to make the cake perfect so that my companions can be safe. The rest is your business."

Eina took out the ring: "As usual, Sanji and I enter the ring, Brynn, you take us to fly to the Wanli Sunshine, so that Perospero won't find out that you are helping us."

Brynn nodded: "I know..."

+ + +

She turned away from them and stood face to face with Qifeng, who was holding Bates.

"I'm leaving, Sister Qifeng." She looked at Bates and said softly, "Are you...happy?"

"I'm very happy."

Brynn showed a moving smile: "Then, we must seize this happiness."

In this twisted family, every child is his mother's doll and chess piece. There are very few people who can achieve true happiness.

As girls, all they can rely on is their future husband. If they can be favored by God in those countless marriages and meet a man who happens to care for them, that is the only way for the girls of the Charlotte family to gain freedom and happiness.

Qifeng looked at his sister: "You too, Brynn."

Her smile froze at the corner of her mouth.

Bryn lowered her eyes and bit her lip bitterly.

"Sister." Her voice was ethereal, "If I fall in love with someone I shouldn't love, will I still be happy?"

Qi Feng looked at her worriedly: "Doesn't that person love you?"

"No, she..." Bryn hesitated, "She is very good to me...but maybe she will never be able to love me."

"Actually, I don't know why I fell in love with her... But sister, maybe this is fate."

"That person saved me... She was the first to accept everything that I was ashamed of seeing others, and the first to not care about my dark and twisted heart... She also said that I was a good girl."

Qifeng smiled: "Then he must hope that you can live a good and happy life."

“Love makes us stronger, but it doesn’t have to be the end of life.”

"Use everything he has given you to love yourself, Brynn." Qifeng said, "Maybe one day, like me, you can find the happiness that truly belongs to you."

The sea breeze blew Brynn's brown hair, revealing the tearful eye hidden in her forehead.
