[OP] The Story of Ming Shi

Sola found a place by the sea to sit down, eating fish seriously.At this moment, he felt that someone had come out of the room and was walking in the direction where he was.Who is it?Sora thought.

"What is a man doing?"

A female voice came from behind, and Sola knew the identity of the person coming from the sound. He said angrily, "Why do you always follow me! Crystal..."

"Hehe, don't you even think about who I'm on board for?" Kristal raised her eyebrows.

"Go away!" Sola frowned, he just wanted to eat a fish in peace!Sola just felt aggrieved, why didn't he just throw this scourge off the boat!

"Don't be angry... I just want to talk to you and get to know you better." Christo paused, "By the way, you said before that you and your father traveled all over the world for something... Now find out Yet?"

"...No, I'm still looking for it until now, that's the purpose of my trip." Sola said slowly, gnawing on the grilled fish.

"What are you looking for? Let me tell you, I've been to many places, maybe I've heard of it." Christo smiled.

Sora looked at him for a while, then turned her head silently——no, she would definitely laugh at me if she said it!

Seeing that Sola didn't answer, Kristo didn't delve into it any further, but naturally changed the subject: "By the way, about my fiancé...that is your uncle...how did you know him?"

"Wrecked at sea, the boat and my father disappeared. After I drifted in the sea for a long time, I was picked up by my uncle who went fishing... This was about nine years ago... ten years ago. Then I have been with my uncle all the time. Together, that's it." Sora answered Crystal very simply and without any concealment.

Christo froze for a moment, shipwreck?ten years ago?It turned out that Sora had been separated from his father when he was very young...but in a shipwreck...his father probably passed away.

"You were only four or five years old at that time, right? Thank you for remembering things when you were so young..."

"I have a good memory, and I also remember some things with Daddy before, but I don't remember Daddy's appearance very clearly." Sora looked a little regretful, "But if I can go to Sky Island this time, maybe I can I saw my father. There may be clues to what I'm looking for..."

"Wait... what are you talking about?" Christo was stunned by Sola's weird words, she hesitated to speak, "Why did you say that you will meet your father in Sky Island? And what clues are what happened?"

"Daddy gave me a dream a while ago." Sola looked at the starry sky, "He said that she would wait for me in the sky, and he said that if I reached the sea in the sky, I would find what I was looking for."

"This... Sola, could that be just a dream?" Crystal felt cold sweat on her back.

"That's not true, it's indeed Daddy... He even taught me not to forget the original purpose! He said that the temple is in the sky, so it must be in the sky!" Sola immediately argued.

"...What did you just say? Temple?" Christo caught a certain word, "What temple?"

I slipped my tongue... Sola wanted to slap himself, but he said everything, so he simply broke the jar and said, "It's the Sea God Temple...the Sea God Temple I've been looking for."

"Ah? It's that unpredictable sea temple that often appears in various places?" Christo expressed doubts, "Isn't that a legend? Recently... no one has witnessed it in the sea area, and some people say it is A vision of a mirage."

"Sky Island is also a legend! Recently, no one believes in Sky Island, but look! There are many evidences to prove that it exists!" Sola retorted, "Don't you think so?"

Christo said nothing.

Sola continued: "It doesn't matter if you don't believe it, I will find it."

"Is this your dream? Find the sea temple..."

"It's not so much a dream, it's more a responsibility, it's something to do." Sola rubbed his hands together, "Dad has told me this since I was a child, we are constantly traveling to find it, travel... we must find it."

Christo wiped her sweat: "Hey, is this something your father taught you to do? Did your father impose his dream on you, and you took it as a responsibility?"

"No, this is really what I want to do... only I can do it." Sora lowered his head, looking preoccupied, "No matter what, just go to the sky and have a look."

Christo felt that she couldn't change other people's thinking, so she stopped persuading her and just nodded her head in agreement: "I'm also curious about what Sky Island looks like. I can go there tomorrow, and I'm looking forward to it."

The food that was supposed to be eaten was almost finished, so Sora and Krystal went back to the house.At this time, the great ape brothers took out a package and untied the oilcloth on it, and several golden statues appeared in front of them. The statues had a clock and a strange bird with a big mouth.

Since we are going to the sea area due south tomorrow, we can't do it without a guide bird.So everyone went to the woods to catch birds, but why didn't such an important matter be mentioned earlier!Alas—but forget it, I forgot how to do it.Everyone resigned to their fate and went into the forest, and divided into several groups to look for the bell guide bird.

Sola and Christo were in a group, the deep forest at night was deep and eerie, both of them remained vigilant without saying a word.

"Yeah—there are moths!"

"Wow - spider!"

Unfortunately, both of them had some fear of insects, so they ran away...

Later, when everyone got together, they found that they had been fooled. The guide bird was cunning and arrogant enough. It actually stood on a branch to provoke everyone. But at this time, thanks to Robin's Huahuaguo's ability, the guide bird was successfully caught. live.

Before everyone returned to Uncle Guligu's house, they were shocked by the sight in front of them.Those three people were beaten with bruised noses and swollen faces. Their strength should not be too weak!

Luffy got the answer after questioning, it turned out that Bellamy stole the uncle's gold.Sora didn't know who Bellamy was, but seeing Nami's indignation, he knew something in his heart—it must be the person who humiliated them in the morning.

Luffy insisted on taking back the uncle's gold, but he couldn't stop it.I had no choice but to tell him to come back before six o'clock in the morning.Afterwards, Luffy rushed along the coastline, the rest of the people went to rest, and the strengthening of the hull was handed over to the Masla brothers and their subordinates.

It's called a rest, but it's actually just a short nap.Sora woke up before dawn, and he felt a little speechless when he saw the new shape of the Merry, it would be fine if he had wings... Why did the sheep's head turn into a chicken head...

"If you want to fly, make it look like a bird, chickens obviously can't fly." Sola said.

"I think the pigeons are pretty good." Zoro said.

Everything is ready, the only thing left is Luffy.Time passed by every minute and every second, but there was still no sign of Luffy.

"It's been 45 minutes past the agreed time, and we won't be able to catch up with the tide!" Nami was very anxious, "Besides, it will definitely take a lot of time for that guy to come back with such a heavy gold nugget on his back! Could it be that the guy didn't even calculate this kind of time? Have you ever passed?"

Usopp spat: "No, I think he probably never calculated."

Chopper was still worried about whether Luffy would be defeated in the town, but the next moment Luffy's energetic voice came over.

But... that unicorn in your hand is a swollen thing!You spent a lot of time looking for this thing in love!Everyone looked like they couldn't stand Luffy.

It was finally possible to set off, and Sora was naturally as excited as everyone else.It will take nearly four hours to reach the destination, and Sola is lying on the railing to catch up on sleep. At this time, Kristo came to Sola with a smile all over her face.

"Don't think I'll let my guard down after we chatted for a while yesterday!" Sola said.

"Oh, but I really just want to chat with you." Crystal just smiled.

"Why are you only looking for me... There are plenty of people who are more talkative than me! Usopp, Sanji, or Luffy...you can go to them! Why are you just looking for me?" Sora pouted, and Crystal was very quiet on the boat , I almost never take the initiative to speak, only when facing myself... so active and enthusiastic.

"Hehe... because they are not real... Do you understand Sora when I say this?" Kristal's smile looked a little lonely for a moment, "In my opinion, the people on this ship will form a world, they live in their world, and I'm outside that world."

Sora frowned: "I don't understand what you're talking about."

"That's right..." Christo raised the corners of her mouth and showed her usual smile, "But I just want to say... Will you listen to me? It doesn't matter if you don't understand, let's just listen to it, about me thing."

"Have I ever said before that I am a visitor from another world? No, it doesn't matter, now I tell you, I come from a world completely different from this one. In that world, there is a story about pirates... and that The story is about the adventures of a pirate group with only seven crew members. That pirate group rode a sheep-head dhow..." Christo stopped as she said this, as if she was thinking about something.

"...If you talk about the Golden Merry, there are nine of us now." Sola said.

"Yes, originally there were only seven people after the end of Alabasta...the seven people on this ship except you and me." Christo said, "Your uncle and I are from other worlds , and you...you appear here maybe because of the butterfly effect. Because there are two more people in this world, the original plot has changed...and you are the one who lives with the intruder from another world , under his influence, the plot changes make sense..."

Sola frowned, he seemed to understand what Crystal meant, but the more he understood, the more he felt that her words were unreasonable: "You are lying, what story..."

"You don't believe me? Well, I'll tell you everything I know." Crystal began to snap her fingers, "First, Luffy set off from a small village in the East China Sea. After defeating a certain navy, Zoro became a companion; then he met Nami, defeat the clown pirate; then meet Usopp, get the Golden Merry; then the sea restaurant..."

He thought it was Christo who was talking nonsense about the parts Sola didn’t know, but after that, Christo was able to list the major events they experienced one by one, and Sora’s expression became ugly, almost Eyes dumbfounded.

"Looking at your reaction, you should have known them from the restaurant on the sea, right?" Christo chuckled, "You understand now, for me they are all characters in the story... except You, you are special..."

After that, Christo didn't speak, she looked at the sea in a daze.

If what she said is true... then what kind of mood is she staying here?Sora looked at Crystal.Can't help but say: "Well, I believe what you said. But... that story, what happened afterwards? Do you know the... future of this ship?"

"Well... Actually, I don't know very well, because it's been too long. And I didn't read the Alabasta part after that. I just briefly read the introduction of the Sky Island part. I only know that I went to Sky Island later. There are gods or something on the island..." Christo shook her head, "I really can't remember."

"Is that so...'God'?" Sora thought.

"Anyway, I've said everything that needs to be said." Christo let out a breath, "I always feel that it's much easier to say everything, thank you for listening to me."

Christo glanced at Sola: "By the way, you can tell everyone about me...or not, it's up to you."

Then Krystal turned and prepared to leave.

However, her hand was pulled.

Christo turned her head in astonishment, and met Sola's eyes.

"I won't say it."

Christo looked into those penetrating eyes, and a strange feeling overflowed in her heart.But she didn't show her feelings, she just pulled out her hand and left silently.

The author has something to say:

This chapter specifically explains Sora's purpose of going to sea—to find the sea temple.This is also mentioned in the previous article (that is, when the pirate ship and the great channel sailed at the beginning of the ceremony), it can be regarded as a foreshadowing!There is also the matter of Christo... She is a time traveler and has a marriage contract with Sola's uncle (it was also mentioned before that the two people are actually about the same age, but they have passed through at different points in time), of course the two of them are not Normal people (this seems to be ambiguous? Forget it, they are people who have undergone special training anyway).Crystal has watched One Piece, saw the part of Alabasta, and then read the introduction of the part of Sky Island, (read it before finishing the film) Of course, Sora’s uncle also knows the plot...but he traveled to a long time ago...
