[Comprehensive] Light and Shadow

"Ah, damn it, where is this place!" Nami walked impatiently in the jungle, calling her companion's name from time to time but no one answered.Where the hell is she? When she woke up, there was no one around her, and she was still spinning around in a strange jungle.

"No, there is really no one here." Nami didn't know how long she had been wandering around here, but she couldn't see a single figure, but fortunately, she didn't have any premonition of danger, at least she could Breathe a sigh of relief.

"How do I get out of this ghostly place!" After walking for a long time, Nami finally burst out, hitting the tree trunk beside her with a fist and roaring loudly towards the sky.

"You want to go out?"

A light male voice came from the sky, and Nami immediately screamed in fright, and then looked up in panic.

It was a young man with long purple hair softly attached to his cheeks. The color of his pupils could not be seen clearly under the sunlight, but he vaguely felt that it was a very beautiful color. The young man was sitting on a tree with his head bowed. look at yourself.

"Do you know how to get out?" Nami was taken aback for a moment, then hurriedly asked, finally seeing a living person.

"I know." The young man jumped down from the tree and stood in front of Nami, "I'll take you out."

"Thank you." Nami finally saw the boy's appearance clearly. He looked a year or two younger than herself, with a thin body and a frail appearance, but the pair of purple pupils on his pale face were very attractive. Focusing, there was a sense of familiarity spreading, and Nami asked hesitantly, "Have I met you before?"

"No." The boy paused, then smiled and shook his head.

"By the way, where exactly is this place?" Nami was no longer obsessed, she did not have this person in her memory, but what is more important now is to find out where this place is.

"Don't you know?" The boy raised his eyes in surprise, "This is Yas Island, even if you are an outsider, you shouldn't know it."

"..." Nami sighed, she really didn't know, and she didn't know why she was here.But why has she never heard of the existence of Yas Island?Where the hell is this place?

"Have you seen anyone else before? Well, it's an outsider like me hanging around here." Nami wanted to inquire about the news from the young man. It would be great if there was a companion here.

"No, I only saw you." The boy shook his head.

"That's it." Nami said disappointedly, "But I'd better trouble you, take me out of here."

"You need a reward." The boy smiled.

"Ah?" Nami was stunned, maybe she was asking for money.

"Let me call you sister." The boy said, then took Nami's hand and walked in a direction.

"..." Nami frowned, looking at her clenched hands, whether it was taken advantage of.

Looking at the smiling face of the purple-haired boy with crooked eyes, Nami felt a softness in her heart for no reason.

"My name is Nami, what's your name?"

"Ann." The boy turned his head and smiled brightly, "My name is An."

Nami nodded, and then silently recited it a few times in her heart, always feeling more and more familiar.

"This is..." Walking into an area suddenly, Nami's field of vision seems to widen. It is no longer a jungle full of trees in front of her eyes, but a vast green field with flowers. There is a huge tree in the middle of the grass. .

The branches and leaves are luxuriant, and the huge canopy seems to cover the blue sky and the golden sunshine. The lush leaves exude the breath of life, and a fresh and sweet smell spreads in the air, which makes people feel inexplicably Feel relaxed and relieved all over the body.

I don't know if it's my illusion, but there is a light golden fluorescent light floating around the giant tree, beautiful and light, and the tiny rays of light linger around the leaves and branches like fragments of sunlight.What is even more surprising is that there is a golden light shining through the center of the canopy, and the mottled light and shadow can still be vaguely seen through the lush leaves, as if holding the light of life, beautiful and sacred.

"It's a sacred tree." The boy noticed Nami's unwavering gaze, "Do you want to take a closer look?"

"Yes, can it be?" Nami looked at the boy in surprise.

"Yes." The young man took Nami's hand and walked towards the tree, "This is the sacred tree that has guarded this island for generations. Sister, you can also make a wish, and the sacred tree may help you realize your wish."

Nami walked in slowly with excitement, only to realize that what she saw shining beside the tree trunk was not fluorescent light, but a fluffy yet delicate sphere, which seemed so fragile that it would fall apart when touched. , but it floats wantonly in the wind with a faint soft light, but it won't leave.

Still couldn't help but curiously reached out and touched lightly, the fingertips felt the warm temperature, and the fluff just trembled and then drifted away with the wind, the trail of light in front of my eyes just slid like that.

Nami finally felt lucky. If she hadn't woken up in this strange place for no reason, she wouldn't have seen such a beautiful scene. Even if those unreliable companions lost her, she decided to Forgive me.

"Can you really make a wish?" Nami hesitated, after all, it was a sacred tree in someone else's island.

"Okay." The boy nodded.

Now that the boy said so, Nami no longer hesitated.

Close your eyes and think about it seriously.

Is it to make a wish for yourself to obtain wealth?Or do you want to have Bailey who can't finish spending?

Sure enough, it's still——

I hope that everyone will be safe and sound all the time, and continue to sail happily like this.

"Xiao An, have you ever made a wish here?" Nami opened her eyes, and blurted out the boy's name.

"...Mmm." The young man was stunned for a moment before he nodded in response.

"Did that happen?" Nami looked expectantly.

"Well, it's done." The boy nodded with a smile, and said slowly word by word.

It's done, that's good.

Nami smiled, but suddenly heard someone calling her, more than one person calling her name.

Is it Luffy and the others?

Nami was startled, and then trotted following the sound, and found that the unwillingness to go out around the giant tree was the seaside, where the Sonny was parked by the tide, and Luffy and Sanji were waving their hands vigorously to herself.

"Nami! What are you still doing there! Come here, we're leaving!" Luffy shouted loudly as he stood by the seaside with the familiar bright smile on his face, and then jumped onto the Sonny's side deck.

"Nami, the boat is about to sail, come here quickly." Usopp waved to Nami.

"Miss Nami! I have prepared your favorite dessert today!" Sanji shouted courteously as before, full of admiration.

"Ah, those are my companions." Nami saw that Luffy and the others were calling her to go over, and couldn't help but smile with the corners of her lips curled up, and then looked at the teenager beside her, "They are calling me to go over, I have to go .”

"Well, sister, go quickly." The boy nodded and watched Nami leave.

Nami took a few steps, but couldn't help turning her head around.

A ray of sunlight pierced through the branches and leaves, and hit the young man's face with a thin layer of sunlight, inlaid a slight golden edge on the outline of the brow bone and chin, making the whole person unreal, and the pair of purple eyes slanted The bright water light is so beautiful that people can't leave their eyes.

"Will you come with me?" Nami asked slowly.

The boy froze, but his pupils trembled.

"No, I, I mean..." Nami immediately realized what she said. Why did she ask a strange boy whom she had known for less than an hour to go together? Let alone what Luffy thinks, but the boy Living well on this island, there is no reason to follow yourself, but, "I, I just want to ask."

The purple-haired boy pursed his lips and then raised a shallow smile, and his purple eyes were stained with thoughts that Nami could not understand.

"No, there are still people waiting for me." The boy shook his head.

"Is someone waiting for you?" Nami subconsciously repeated.

"Well, there is a person who said he wanted me and let me stay by his side."

The boy nodded, and the corners of his mouth curved slightly, "He is waiting for me."

"Go, they are calling you." The boy pointed to the beach, Nami heard the loud voices of her companions, and immediately responded, although she felt something was wrong, she still nodded.

"Okay, goodbye, Xiaoan." During such a long journey, Nami met countless passers-by, and the boy in front of her was just one of them. The time we spent together was so short, but why did she say goodbye? At that moment, I felt a burst of wanton bitterness and pain spreading in my heart.

After Nami turned around and took a few steps, she couldn't take another step, as if an inner self was desperately trying to prevent herself from leaving.

Then, someone hugged him gently from behind.

"Sister, thank you."

The faint voice leaned against his back, but it seemed to seep through the skin and spread to the bottom of his heart, familiar and sad.

Nami's body trembled, warm water dripped across her cheeks, but unconscious tears poured out of her eyes.

Are you crying?Why on earth is she crying?Why, at this moment, my heart is so painful and sad?

"It was great to see you all."

Nami wanted to turn around, but her body couldn't move. Tears flowed more and more, and her eyes were filled with mist.

Some kind of coldness and pain permeated into her heart, but Nami didn't know why, her mind was in chaos but she vaguely felt that she was about to remember something important and absolutely not to be left behind.

The hand that hugged her was slowly released, Nami's body trembled with fear, she had a vague premonition that something was loosened and she couldn't come back.

Don't, don't let go, don't go!

"Everyone, come back safely together."

When Nami heard what the young man said, in an instant, it was as if someone had sniped a sniper in her body, causing an explosion in her body, and all the defense lines were defeated. The frustration in her heart spread wildly, and the memory suddenly flooded thinking.

She and him had agreed that the young man would watch everyone come back safely together.

Don't leave here!take him away!Be sure to take him back with you!It is clearly agreed that we are companions, we must all go back safely together!Nami's heart kept roaring hysterically, but she was so helpless that she couldn't stop crying at this moment, feeling the person behind her gently pushing her on the back.

She staggered forward and turned around in a hurry, only to see the boy's last smile, but her tearful face was reflected in the purple pupil, and her fingertips feebly brushed against the boy's face. clothes corner.

The purple-haired boy looked at Nami who disappeared in front of his eyes, and the smile on the corner of his mouth disappeared, then he turned and walked towards the sacred tree.

He once had a dream.

In the dream, he walked very far in the dark, but finally saw the end of the light.

Sanji was there, Nami was there, Luffy was there, and those companions were all standing on the deck of the Sonny, calling his name loudly, waving their hands and watching him with a smile.

Then, his hand was held tightly by Sanji, and they set sail on the sea together. They will meet more people, encounter more difficulties, and fall on more bumpy roads, but even so, they We will still be together all the time, supporting each other and laughing and walking together.

"What a dream."

The young man walked slowly, and the ground he stepped on was ignited with flames. The raging fire burned wantonly, and the scorching fire dyed the whole world red.

It was also on this island before that he killed countless innocent people and was punished by God, but why did he wake up again?

Ah, right.

Standing in a sea of ​​blood, holding a cold and bloody blade, he humbly made a wish in front of the sacred tree.

What exactly did he wish for?

The scorching light of the flame dyed two clusters of bright flames in the depths of his pupils, like the gentleness settled in the bottom of his eyes.

"That's great, so I can be loved too." The young man smiled with crooked eyebrows.

The sea of ​​flames behind him spread wantonly, igniting the huge sacred tree, and the bright red and fiery light filled the entire field of vision.The boy stood alone in the sea of ​​flames, but with a calm smile on his face, the waves of fire wrapped the boy in bright red, and then completely dissipated in the sea of ​​flames, and the whole world was completely burned by the flames.

Sir, have I, who was so dirty in the fire, become a little cleaner and more beautiful?

"Nami! You're awake!" Chopper looked at Nami who opened his eyes, and suddenly jumped up excitedly.

"Finally another one has woken up, and now it's Sanji and Zoro who are missing." Usopp also said happily, and hurried to Nami's side, not knowing why they were so inexplicably at peace with each other It's over.When he fainted, he thought everyone must be dead this time, but...

"Nami, are you okay?" Robin looked at Nami, who was covered in cold sweat and even trembling, and asked worriedly, frowning slightly.

"Where's An?" Nami's voice was trembling extremely, her eyes were red, and she finally managed to make a sound, "Where's Xiao An?"

"We didn't see him." Robin shook his head frankly.

"Where's Sanji!" Nami took a deep breath, tears fell down suddenly, and then shouted out.

Robin regained his composure, pursed his lips and pointed in the direction of Sanji who was lying on the bed.

"Nami!" Chopper looked at Nami who was completely out of order in panic, but Nami just staggered off the bed, then walked quickly to Sanji's bed, and pulled up abruptly amidst everyone's surprised expressions. He grabbed Sanji's collar and slapped him.

"Sanji, wake up! Get up! Get up, get up!" Nami cried and shouted loudly. Everyone wanted to stop her, but Robin shook his head in a gesture.And Nami reached out to hit Sanji at first, but then seemed to have no strength, so she cried and shook Sanji's body weakly with her hands.

"Nami..." Sanji opened his eyes in a daze, but was shocked, seeing Nami looking at him with tears all over his face.

"Where is An, tell me, what about others!" Nami questioned loudly, tears dripping from her red eyes.

"He..." The confused thoughts startled suddenly, Sanji suddenly remembered something as if he was frightened, his pupils tightened suddenly and he looked around quickly, then his body trembled extremely and he lowered his head, not daring to go Look at Nami's gaze.

"I, I know." The two people who appeared out of nowhere were the people trapped on this island who asked Luffy and the others to help them regain their shadows, "We saw at that time... that, that boy, Disappeared."

After the two words disappeared, everyone looked over in shock.

"Now, after you all fell into a coma, he was seriously injured by that Qi Wuhai's men alone, covered in blood, and then he crawled to the side of this blond boy, and just, turned into sand and disappeared... ..."

An oppressive and sad atmosphere instantly filled everything, and there was a feeling of fragility that was almost about to break.

"He, he said something else." One of them paused, then said sadly with complex eyebrows and eyes.

——【If possible, I really want to go to the same place as them. 】

Nami's breathing was stagnant, panting and crying as if she couldn't bear it anymore, something in the depths of her soul was being torn apart frantically by this sentence, and nothing could fill the huge hole.

"No, didn't you promise that everyone would come back safely together!"

Obviously, it's all agreed.

Sanji's body was trembling, and he slowly raised his hand, only to find some fine sand falling from his palm,

—and a white paper star.

Nami slowly let go of Sanji, and then carefully picked up the star.

"You see, in the end, he tried his best to tell you that he has always stayed by your side."

Seeing that star, Nami couldn't stop crying even more.

She recalled that in such a real dream, the boy said that someone who wanted him was waiting for him, and he called his sister to hug him from behind to say thank you, and he also said that everyone would come back safely together.

Nami put the star back in Sanji's palm, with warm tears.

"You still lost him..."
