To the end of the sea [One Piece]

??

"My name is Roronoa Zoro."

There was a tall black pirate ship floating on the sea next to the sea restaurant - maybe it couldn't be called a ship anymore, because it had been broken into countless pieces and floated on the sea.

At this moment, on one of the wreckage, a man with green hair was saying these words.

"You are free, let's compete." He tied the turban on his head and raised his knife towards the man in the black hat in front of him with a strong fighting spirit.

Following the trajectory of the black pirate ship, Ena, who finally caught up, controlled the boat and quietly approached the "Sea Restaurant Barati" from the side. When she saw the green-haired man, she clenched her fists and felt uncontrollably excited.

Roronoa Zoro. This is a man with an impression in his lost memory.

Finally, after months of searching, she met someone with a familiar aura.

At this moment, the man in golden armor was no longer important. What was important was the new memory clue in front of him. They seemed to be dueling, so she said nothing and hid aside to watch quietly.

Then she watched him being stopped by the man in black hat using only a knife, and then she would rather die calmly than give up the persistence of a swordsman.

"My name is Joracol Mihawk." The man in the black hat smiled, and finally seriously pulled out the black long sword behind him. "Out of the etiquette of a swordsman, I will use this, the strongest black sword in the world." The knife will kill you in the sea."

"I'm really grateful." The green-haired swordsman held the knife in his mouth and struck at the same time as Mihawk.

"The Secret of the Three Sword Styles - The Great Thousand Worlds!" The moment Zoro's sword came out, something in the depths of her memory seemed to affect Ena. She watched intently as he failed with one move, then turned around and moved her chest Facing Mihawk.

Mihawk was also stunned for a moment: "Is this?"

Then she heard Zoro laugh: "The wound on the back is a swordsman's shame."

Mihawk raised the corner of his mouth and slashed with the knife without hesitation. Blood splattered everywhere, and even Ikegawa Eina couldn't help but cover her mouth.

Why...can you face death so calmly?

Is it the spirit of a swordsman? Or what is the reason... What kind of existence can one die for?

Some bulging emotions surged up in my chest, and some unfamiliar images appeared in my mind.

【Let me go, Kuzan】

[Even if I die, I still have something I want to protect]

When Eina came back to her senses, her eyes were filled with tears. It was a fragmented memory that belonged to her. In this memory, she seemed to see a different version of herself.

Who is Kuzan?

Did she ever have a moment when she was willing to face death...

Ena watched Zoro being rescued, and Mihawk, who deliberately kept Zoro alive, was about to leave. The man in golden armor she had chased all the way stopped him, took out his weapon and shot Mihawk. Without thinking, Ena drew her knife and rushed forward, trying to block the stray bullet, but Mihawk moved faster than her.

In an instant, the shells scattered in all directions, causing a splash of water. After his vision returned to clarity, Mihawk had disappeared.

"Have you left already..." The man in golden armor cut his voice and saw Eina who suddenly appeared.

"Who are you brat?" He yelled impatiently, raising the gun on his arm and pointing it at Eina.

Eina looked at him without speaking for a while, but at this moment, there was a person on the deck of the sea restaurant who lost all his mind in an instant, and his pupils shrank in an instant.

The blond-haired chef rushed to the railing with all his strength, grabbed the railing and leaned out most of his body, his lips trembling with excitement.

"Ena...sister..."

Naturally, Eina would not notice the people at the restaurant on the sea. She looked at the man in golden armor coldly and put away her knife.

"Originally I thought you were very unpleasant and wanted to teach you a lesson." She glanced at Sauron and the others who were preparing to leave, then turned to her boat, "But now I have no interest in people like you who abandon your friends. ”

She looked at the boy wearing a straw hat who was moving his arms. The black-haired boy with a rubber-like body seemed not to have noticed her at all, complaining softly about the pain in the place where he had just been hit.

That straw hat…

Couldn't be more familiar.

"Hey, Pirate King." She didn't hear the boy's name, but Zoro called him that just now.

"From now on, I will never lose again... Do you have any objections - Pirate King!"

So she called the name directly, and the boy in the straw hat responded to her very naturally: "Ah, what's the matter?"

"I have something to ask your fellow swordsman." She said, "So, can you please beat this guy away for me?"

The boy was stunned for a moment, then gave her a bright smile.

"Of course!!"

Ena laughed from the bottom of her heart, jumped on the boat and chased after the boat carrying Zoro. Before leaving, she turned back and shouted to the boy: "After you beat him away, see you at your companions - my name is Ikegawa Ena!"

"Ah! My name is Luffy!" The boy stretched his neck and waved to her, "You are such an interesting person!"

Eina laughed.

Straw Hat…Luffy.
