the next day.

The whole town returned to its original state, as if nothing had changed, but the beautiful woman who slowly walked up to the island with the setting sun on her back never appeared again. Even the woman's family showed no concern for the woman's disappearance.

And in his childhood memory, the touch of white blown by the wind and the red on the feet were also completely sealed like phantoms.

It wasn't until he opened up history and really walked into that unknown period that he realized how terrible something happened that night.

According to the book.

It was the woman's father who personally sent his daughter, who was about to give birth, to the mayor's house. He and the mayor personally summoned all the adults in the town, and together with them, they personally tied the woman to the square in the middle of the town. On the pillar, everyone lit the fire together.

No wonder there is always a black mark burned by fire in the town square.

It turns out that there is the place of burning!

Although he knew that there were many special rules on the island, he had never seen them until he was this old. He did not expect that in this history, such a cruel thing would actually happen in his childhood.

He could imagine how desperate that woman must have felt as she was slowly being swallowed up by the fire, surrounded by many people and under their indifferent eyes.

Especially among the crowd were his close relatives.

Thinking about it at that time, in her heart, I am afraid that the endless fire outside her body could not compare with the heartbreaking pain in her heart!

After all, she would come back when she was at her weakest, to her true home.

I guess in her heart, "home" is the safest and warmest place!

But she didn't expect that the warmest family member would become the most direct person to kill her and the unborn child in her belly!

He shook his head, raised his head, and looked out the window.

Looking at the thick fog in the sky covering the entire island, a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes.

I don’t know when it started, it could be a few months, or it could be half a year. The island, which was originally sunny and sunny and easy for humans to survive, would always be obscured by clouds and fog.

Keep the island in darkness most of the day.

Only when dusk approaches and the sun sets, the clouds and fog will disperse, revealing the island that looks like it is on fire.

This also makes the island, from a distance, look like a burning candle.

And that wick...

Looking down, Capri looked at the church built on the high ground behind the town's central square in the distance, with mixed emotions in his eyes.

That wick is in that church.

As for lamp oil, it’s all the people in this town!

What exactly happened that night is not recorded in the historical text, only a few words are written, that is, the woman seemed to disappear in the fire.

As for how it disappeared, no one knows.

He said that the nun who came to the island half a year ago gave him a sense of déjà vu.

Thinking about it now, this young nun who has been living in the church since she came and is very respected by the people in the town is either the woman herself 20 years ago, or the child in her belly!

After all, no one knows whether the woman is really dead.

If not dead, or the child is not dead.

Then it makes sense that after gaining strength, he would come back for revenge.

Thinking of this, Capri looked away, and the pity in his eyes disappeared. Although the woman's incident was caused by the town, it had nothing to do with him!

He is only 25 or 6 years old. Although he looks old, he is still very young.

So he doesn't want to die, really doesn't want to die.

Closing the historical text on the table, Kabri stood up slowly with slightly trembling legs.

He picked up the backpack that had been prepared by the desk, stuffed the historical text in his hand into the bag, took one last look at the church in the distance, withdrew his gaze, and went out.

Since Goddess of Luck is favoring him and keeping him clear, he can't stay here and wait to die.

……

Ring noon.

The sun is hot.

The Liberty rode the wind and waves, heading quickly in a certain direction.

At this moment, Arlo's shout came from the top of the mast, breaking the silence on the bow.

"Sata..."

"Ok!"

Opening his eyes, there was confusion in his pale blue pupils. He raised his head and looked at Arlo at the top of the mast. The confusion in his eyes disappeared instantly, and he said loudly, slightly angrily: "What's wrong?"

"There is a small boat ahead on the left."

"boat?"

My mind suddenly became clear.

Except for Mihawk, who is extremely confident in his own strength, and Kuzan, a player who can ride a bicycle on the sea with the help of his fruit ability, who dares to go out to sea alone in a small boat!

You know, this is the Grand Line.

Shaking his head, red light flashed in his blue pupils.

"Um……"

He reached out and touched his chin for a moment, "He is not a strong person."

This gave him the feeling of a twilight old man.

"Isn't it because I met a water burial?"

Thinking of this, he quickly stood up from the deck chair, put on his slippers, and walked quickly to the side of the boat.

Hmm... It doesn't look like a water burial, but more like a disaster.

I saw a small boat on the sea in front of the left side of the Liberty, rising and falling with the waves.

Compared to the vastness of the sea, the boat is like a fallen leaf in the sea. Judging from the undulations, if the weather in this sea area was not good at the moment, it might have been overturned by the waves, and the boat was destroyed and everyone died.

"There's only one old man on board."

Sorata looked at the boat in the distance with a hint of curiosity in his eyes.

Whether it's a disaster or something else, there will always be interesting stories.

Thinking of this, he withdrew his gaze, turned around, leaned his back on the guardrail, raised his head and shouted towards the cab.

"A Tao."

"exist."

At the door of the cab, A Tao's head popped up, a cigarette in his mouth, staring at Sorata in confusion.

"Go to the left, there is an old man there, let's go take a look."

"Oh……"

After making an "ok" gesture to Sorata, A Tao retracted his head.

Suddenly, under the control of A Tao, the Liberty quickly turned and headed towards the left front.

Covered by shadows, Capri, who was lying on the boat looking a little desperate, opened his eyes and looked at the pair of pale blue pupils on the bow of the Liberty, which seemed to be able to see through people's hearts.

"Not an old man?"

Sorata looked at Kabri's pair and the clear pupils that stood out on his old face, with doubts in his eyes.

"A handsome boy."

This was Kabri's first thought when he saw Sorata, and then his pupils glowed with hope.

He thought that after leaving the island, as long as his luck was not too bad, he would encounter other ships!

Even if it's a pirate ship.

Although their island seems very old, it is not.

They are only a little more than a day's flight away from the commercial capital of the Seven Rivers. However, their island is not on the main route, so it is a little deserted.

As long as you leave the island, it won't take long before you can actually see ships heading to the Capital of Seven Waters.

He didn't know if God was playing tricks on him. In the past, he couldn't see any of the ships that he could easily meet today. He knew that it was absolutely wishful thinking to spend the night on the Grand Route with a small boat like his.

He went to sea to find a way to survive, not to die.

Hmm... his luck was actually not bad. He actually didn't know why, why he kept waiting here. Fortunately, he only had to wait all morning before the boat came.
