[One Piece] and the world

Windmill Village.

The town where she grew up.

"An, it's time to eat." Maginot stood at the entrance of the village and shouted while waving to An, who was standing by the pier.

Hearing the call, An left the pier, walked slowly to Maginot, avoided Maginot's hand that wanted to hold her, and walked towards the bar not far away with her head lowered.

Garp entrusted her and her brother Luffy, who was one year younger than him, to the care of the village chief's house in Windmill Village. Maginot was the village chief's daughter, and she had brought up both An and Luffy, and they were always on the right track. Fei and An took great care of her, and An respected and liked her very much.

Opening the door, the expected sound of joy came over: "Sister! You are finally back, let's eat quickly!"

Eating on time was a big deal, at least to Luffy, but that obviously didn't include Ann.

Ever since Garp brought her back to Windmill Village from Marineland, An made a long training plan that night. It was the same plan as she remembered, but with a little more volume. Then early the next morning, in When most people were still immersed in sleep, she got up and started running. After finishing her run, it was already dark, and the villagers in Windmill Village began to prepare breakfast.

At this time, she went back to the bar opened by Maginot to have breakfast, and then waited in the bar for Maginot to return after delivering food to the village chief, and then continued to run out to train. She used difficult training to crazily squeeze her physical strength. At noon, I went back to the bar to have lunch, and then entered training mode again. After dinner, I went back to my small room to stretch and relax my muscles.

In her memory, she used her evening time to learn cultural knowledge, but now she no longer needs it. She has returned to her childhood. There is still a long, long time before the battle that almost cost her her life. Time, in such a long time, she must be fully prepared.

An expressionlessly ignored Luffy who was running towards her, climbed onto the high stool in front of the bar, and ate the lunch that Maginot had prepared for her.

Luffy didn't care about being treated coldly. He followed behind with a smile and climbed onto the stool next to him, then happily ate his favorite meat.

"An, Luffy, you eat first, I'll go and deliver food to father." After Maginot finished speaking, he disappeared from the door.

"Sister, I heard from Uncle Sanji that there are very, very big unicorns in the east!! Do you want to catch them with me?!"

After dinner, Ann, who was waiting for Maginot to come back in the bar, was once again pestered by Luffy. Luffy's starry eyes flashed and he patted the table excitedly: "Go, go! Go catch unicorns with me!" elder sister!!"

However, he was destined to get no reply.

An lowered his head and looked at his little hands. Luffy's soft and waxy voice kept coming to his ears. It had a faint coquettish ending, which made people want to agree to everything he wanted. ask.

When her little hands clenched into fists, the shutter door was pushed open. Before Maginot could enter, she heard Luffy's coquettish voice. She covered her mouth and looked at Luffy, smiling lightly: "Luffy is here." Do you want to invite sister to play? Where do you plan to go? "

Little Luffy's eyes flashed and he told her excitedly: "Mackino, Uncle Sanchi said there is a super big unicorn in the east of the village..." He stretched out his little hand excitedly, trying to tell her How old is Maginot? “So I want to catch unicorns with my sister!”

"Wow, it's so big! So if you catch it, can you show it to me?" Regarding Luffy's many whimsical remarks, Maginot never pointed them out, and always said, "That's amazing." "Although this is the first time I heard it, I believe it is true" echoed with an expression.

So Luffy also likes her very much.

"Hehe, of course!" Luffy agreed with a smile, then turned around and took his sister's hand and shook it gently, "Go ahead, sister, come with me~~"

My heart suddenly stung.

An understood that she almost showed her emotions again, so she took her hand out of Luffy's hand. She didn't dare to look at Luffy, but she didn't dare to stay here anymore. She could only stand up with a cold face and walked towards the door step by step. , and then pushed open the shutter door, isolating all unresponsive expectations inside the door.

sorry Sorry sorry……

She ran as hard as she could along the road, saying sorry to Luffy hundreds of times in her heart. The villagers of Windmill Village along the way greeted her, but she just pretended not to hear or see. She knew that they would not Mind.

Garp told the village chief about her illness, and the village chief also informed all the villagers. An, who was equivalent to eating hundreds of meals, immediately gained the understanding and compassion of all the villagers, and their attitude towards her was even worse than before. Gentleness, even if all it gets is an expressionless face that can be said to be devoid of politeness at all.

Can not get married.

Sitting on the hillside, the sea breeze blew her hair into a mess, but she just put her hair behind her ears expressionlessly, then stood up and continued training.

She thought, if she was strong enough to defeat a general, could she change the outcome?

For such innocent thoughts, the devil never chooses to crush them and reveal the bloody reality underneath.

During dinner, she returned to the bar uneasily and saw Luffy sitting on a stool talking to Maginot. Her expression darkened. The expectation of being silently rejected turned into a sharp sword and stabbed her heart. Then , did it also hurt Luffy?

"elder sister!!"

Luffy, who saw Ann under Maginot's instruction, his eyes suddenly lit up, he jumped off the stool and ran over excitedly, then raised the thing in his hand to her: "Look, sister!! I caught it! I caught it Here comes the unicorn!!" His eyes were like the brightest star in the night, and one couldn't help but feel that even just one star could dispel the darkness.

"It's a pity that it's not a super big unicorn..." Little Luffy's expression was a little depressed, but the next second he bloomed a big, bright smile again, and said firmly with eyes full of determination: "But I will definitely be able to catch that one. The super big, super big, biggest unicorn king!”

Ann didn't know what kind of unicorn stories Uncle Sanchi had instilled in Luffy. She looked at Luffy's dirty clothes and the shallow scars on his arms, and then looked at the small unicorn in his hand. Beast, thinking that this should be a normal-sized unicorn, the king of unicorns or something... An lowered his eyes.

It's something that doesn't exist at all.

"If I catch it! I'll give it to my sister!"

The sudden words made An look stunned, but she didn't dare to raise her head at all, for fear that she would cry uncontrollably. Even if she didn't raise her head, she could still imagine the expression on Luffy's face when he said these words. An expression imprinted in memory.

But Luffy, such a terrible sister is not worth what you do.

The pain caused by her nails digging into her flesh made An completely awake. She looked at Luffy who was still stubbornly holding the unicorn in front of her, waiting for her to reach out to take it. He took a step back unmoved, and then coldly Leng bypassed him and left him alone at the dark door. He walked to the bar and ate his dinner in silence.

Maginot looked at Luffy's disappointed expression with distress, and then looked at An, who had no expression on his face from beginning to end, and felt even more distressed.

She always felt that it was her fault that An became like this. If she hadn't taken good care of An, she wouldn't have accidentally bumped into a pirate...

No one would blame Ann for never paying attention to others, because before that happened, everyone had seen her innocent and bright smile.

"It's okay Luffy, sister must be too tired. Let's eat first!" Maginot walked to Luffy's side and took his hand, comforting her softly. Luffy nodded obediently and laughed again: "Yeah !”

He was so energetic that he was afraid to get on the stool. While eating, he talked excitedly about his adventure of catching a unicorn.

Ann listened carefully and took note of every word. It seemed that in this case, she also participated in Luffy's adventure of catching unicorns.
