"I see... I understand Robin's painstaking efforts." The blond man bit his cigarette and exhaled lightly, his eyes flicked over the people in the town wearing various animal ear decorations - pedestrians, and guards.

"Cross-dressing... Just wear sunglasses and a beard or something? Why do you have to use something like this..." The swordsman walking beside him stretched out his hand to grab the black cat ears on his head.

"Don't tear it off, green algae head!!!!" He wanted to scold him severely, but when he saw the idiot algae's helpless expression on his face, the blond man still couldn't help laughing, "Robin That's what Jiang said when you go to the country and do as the Romans do, if you want to go out, don't complain."

Zoro rolled his eyes over the white cat ears worn by the blond man, raised his eyebrows, and continued walking forward.

How should I say it?That idiot cook looks like a good match for cat ears?

Probably... that's the fun part of going to this island.

The island they arrived has a strange custom: whether you are a local resident or a tourist, you must wear animal ear-shaped ornaments for "transformation" in order to move freely on the island. Robin read in the book that the local It is a custom to buy a lot of ear ornaments for everyone to use. In fact, it is okay to not abide by this rule, as long as you pay a large amount of "anti-tourism fee" and you are ok, but you can also know with your toes that any payment related to payment When it comes to Nami, there is only one dead end.

[Either put on your ears, or stay on the boat and don’t go anywhere!!]

Who would dare to disobey the order of the Navigator Queen?

When all kinds of animal ears were placed in front of everyone, the enthusiasm of the people in the pirate group was beyond her imagination. Almost everyone was playing with those furry ear ornaments happily, even Chopper ---- You know, it's the only one that doesn't need to be "transformed"---I also hope that I can add a pair of long rabbit ears.

Of course, those ears are not made of animal fur, but are made of cloth by skillful craftsmen. The small corners of the ears are also embroidered with delicate words or special patterns.

Sanji was going to buy ingredients and had to get off the boat. The green-haired man wanted to go for a walk, so he jumped off the boat after the cook. Of course, they couldn't have violated Nami's order and grabbed two pairs of ears. Zoro brought out a pair of ears. Black cat ears, while Sanji has a pair of white ones. At first they thought it would be okay not to wear them, but the two found that there were indeed many people in uniforms with gray wolf ears checking at various intersections, so they had to accept their fate.

The blond man didn't want to cause trouble for Nami-san, so he used clips to fasten his hair honestly, and put two white cat ears on top. Zoro fixed those ears on his head casually and left it alone, but in the end Sanji couldn't see it, He clicked hard and moved the two ears to the proper position.

"Raggedy bastard green algae head."

"You don't even let this kind of thing go, how narcissistic are you?"

"Cut." The blond man glanced at him disdainfully, "As a gentleman, the most basic requirement is to behave gracefully. What do you know, you muscular bastard?"

Zoro rolled his eyes, and really didn't want to argue with someone about how "elegant" the movement of twisting into noodles is. With a glance, he saw a bar with a wooden sign hanging on the side of the road, and the green-haired man couldn't help slowing down.

"I'm going to have a drink or two."

"Get lost, don't delay my date with the beautiful Lady."

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +

Originally, it was not agreed to go shopping together, and whoever wants to do anything has nothing to do with the other party. Sanji thought to himself, anyway, it is an island the size of a palm, even if the guy gets lost, he can't get lost. He left Zoro In the bar, I continued to walk to the market. In any case, filling up the warehouse of the Sonny is my job as a chef. I wonder if there will be any rare ingredients on this island?

As a result, an unexpected thing happened just after walking to the market. A mother-in-law wearing gray rabbit ears announced in public that the Golden Bridge will appear on the north side of the central square.

As soon as the voice fell, the whole market was in a commotion. Everyone packed up their things and left as quickly as possible. The blond man was stunned for a moment before he realized it. He stretched out his hand and grabbed a person to ask what was going on.

"You'll know when you go, this is a once-in-a-century event, guest." The young man ran away after saying such an inexplicable sentence.

"What are you doing..."

Anyway, the market was scattered and there was nothing to buy. There was nothing left and right, so Sanji followed the others to the circular central square. The square was already crowded with people. Buildings stood around the square. He looked around, this place is located in the interior of the island, there is no river at all, naturally there is no building that can be called a "bridge", let alone a "Golden Bridge".

Just feeling baffled, a thought suddenly occurred to him. It was purely an intuition, and the blond man looked up at the building on the right.

On the roof paved with dark gray tiles, Roronoa Zoro was sitting cross-legged, with several bottles of wine scattered around him. Obviously this guy had been sitting on the roof drinking for a while. The green-haired swordsman lowered his body slightly, His gaze was fixed on the blond man. Seeing that the man raised his head as he wished, he raised the corners of his lips and reached out to pick up the last bottle of wine.

It's like a kind of ability. No matter how many people with different hair colors and colorful ears in the square, as long as that guy appears in sight, he can immediately distinguish it.

It doesn't take a second more.

"You idiot green algae, you know how to choose a place..." Sanji chuckled, and continued to stare at other people in the crowd. It seemed that they were not only looking at the front of the square, but also many people were looking up at the thick clouds in the sky . I don't know what exactly it means?What's next?Why are these people waiting so mesmerized?

"Here we come!!!!" Someone shouted suddenly in front of us. In an instant, the square was silent. Everyone's eyes were wide open, staring at the faintly churning clouds in the sky.

It was as if someone had hacked the clouds with a knife or an axe, and the thick, soft white clouds suddenly opened a crack, and the light immediately poured down from the gap. The pale golden light fell straight on the large area left empty on the north side of the square .It's nothing, but the strange thing is...the thing doesn't end. Like a mirror on the ground or a gap in the cloud is changed, the light rises again, draws a rainbow-like arc and continues to travel in the air. Blonde The man stared at the light slowly extending, and suddenly his heart skipped a beat.

The brighter and brighter light was unbiased... It fell on the roof where the swordsman lived, engulfing the whole body of the man. The three drops of water on the man's left ear instantly reflected a dazzling light.

All the people in the square stared at the roof in disbelief. They didn't know who would react first. A few seconds later, a large crowd knelt down like a tide. They raised their arms and shouted reverently that the gods are above. A mother-in-law wearing gray rabbit ears parted from the crowd and walked under the building, bowing deeply to the roof.

Please stay, she said, it is the will of Golden Bridge, and you will be the king of Aniil Island.

Amidst the cheers of the crowd at his feet, Roronoa Zoro missed everyone else and focused on the blond man. He couldn't tell if it was because he was watching a good show or something, but he always felt that the smile on the corner of the cook's mouth was a bit gloating.

What Sanji is thinking, he thinks he can guess most of it.

It's obviously a green algae head.

Obviously a pirate.

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +

"If this can determine who the king is, then it's a pity," the swordsman raised his dark scarlet eyes, and the cold light in his eyes brought a touch of uncontrollable evil, "Your god didn't choose the right person this time."

Stretching out his hand to grab the last bottle of wine, Zoro jumped down from the roof. The man jumped out of the area covered in light gold in a flash. Glancing over the countless fanatical eyes on the square, his eyes met the only one holding a joke eyes.

RoronoaZoro doesn't care how much he becomes the focus of sight, only knowing the direction of his legs is enough.

The blond man thought to himself, even if the jumping action is actually very interesting, but wearing such fluffy and soft black cat ears... It doesn't have anything to do with such good words as handsome.

And that person can't stay. So, how does it end, huh?

"Why do you refuse? It's clearly the will of God to make you our king." The mother-in-law shook her head puzzled.

Two seconds later, Zoro decided that the best way is to throw out his identity directly. If it's a pirate, it's enough to dispel those weird thoughts, right?There shouldn't be any unpredictable consequences. After all, the group of people right now are just ordinary citizens, not admirals in the navy. Roronoa Zoro, a majestic swordsman and a cook who can kick people, won't even fail to run away. Are you there? Zoro shrugged his shoulders.

"Sorry, I'm a pirate."

Somewhat beyond his expectations, the old man's answer was very calm. "So what? The former king became a pirate, or the former pirate became a king. It's not surprising in this sea area. What's wrong?"

"No... The problem is not here, but the reason for me to stay, which is far from enough." Zoro put his hand on his waist, and caressed the familiar handle of the knife inadvertently with his fingertips. At the end of his line of sight, the man with blue The eyes seem to be connected to the endless sea, and they are full of brilliance that everyone yearns for, whether as a pirate or Roronoa Zoro.

"What I want...isn't here."

Dreams, ambitions, partners, and more things that can't be let go. They and their own journey, with the Straw Hat Pirates, with their Sonny, and the future together, and the desperate battle that will meet sooner or later, and what he knows He is deeply connected with everything. What he wants to conquer is not a mere island, but the whole world.

The green-haired man asked himself from time to time, did heaven and hell ever resound through his name?

Far from enough.

Those who reached out to themselves, those who saw them approaching, from being hostile to gradually accepting to those who could risk their lives, those indispensable partners, no matter how hard and difficult the past, finally carried their own dreams , and embarked on the same journey side by side. This is the beginning, and there must be an end. He believes that as long as they are still alive, they will continue to accompany each other.

How can we say goodbye halfway without witnessing how important partners realize their dreams?

Far from enough.

Not to mention that guy who is the most special among them all. I don't know if it's that idiot or myself. How can I end the fight before I find a satisfactory answer?As for the duration, is it a day?Or is it January, a year?Or... until the time the guy finds AllBlue?

...What will happen if that time really comes?

...not far enough.

"I'm not going to leave anything alone."

The light from the roof seemed to be following his footsteps, quietly moving behind the swordsman. The green-haired man smiled and stepped forward firmly, the beam of light representing the gods was left behind by him.

At this moment, who is the god?

"If it's really that effective, just trust the next person chosen."

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +

[four]

After Roronoa Zoro, a teenager with round ears became the next person chosen by the light, and the locals immediately accepted him as the king of the island. According to them, the Golden Bridge is God's will, is it not What went wrong, under the double reminders of the pirate who refused to accept the throne and the Golden Bridge, there is no doubt that the boy is the real king. The crowd gathered in the square immediately began to organize a grand coronation celebration, and it is said that the next The festivities will last at least three days.

The market will not reopen for a while, the blond man decided to return to the Sunny for the time being. Leaving the square, the two of them crossed an old stone bridge one after the other, and dark green vines protruded from the cracks in the railing. Leaves. The clear river flows under your feet. Although the road is winding, it will eventually merge into the endless blue sea in the distance. His eyes lit up, and the blond man saw a fresh green leaf passing by with the flowing water.

Involuntary, it can only go forward. Must go forward.

So are pirates.

"It seems that it has been solved smoothly...I didn't expect it to be so simple."

The swordsman who was not far behind Sanji just drank the last sip of wine in the bottle. He licked the mouth of the bottle, a little reluctant to throw it away, and said casually. "What can be difficult?"

The blond-haired man stopped in his tracks, looking thoughtfully at the sea in the distance where the sun was constantly dancing. "It's shaking too fast...I thought they would hold on for a while longer."

"It is easy for a person of faith to believe in one thing, including 'change' itself."

"Huh?" Sanji glanced at the green-haired man with a little surprise, "It's really not like what a plant of algae can say. Could it be...does plants evolve too?"

With a "snap", the green-haired man clearly heard the sound of the veins on his forehead bulging. He heard the sound of blood rushing as he wished, which meant that his body was eager to have a fight with that guy. Zoro raised the corners of his mouth dangerously "Hey idiot cook, have you regressed recently? You must use body language to communicate?"

"Huh?! Are you kidding me? I'm not like some plants that dare to come out and talk about things before they have evolved well." There were waves on the water, and the black shoes stepped on the back of the knife steadily and accurately.

"Hey, if you lose this time, answer me a question honestly." Looking at the gap between the sword wind, Zoro raised his eyebrows at the blond man provocatively.

"It's better to win Lao Tzu first and then talk."

When Zoro and Sanji fight, they always stir up smoke and dust. Even though this is a remote path with no one around, once there is a loud noise for unknown reasons, it will still alert the nearby guards.

"Could you two stop first?! Hey!!" Although the guard wearing wolf ears wanted to stop the two, it seemed that he was unable to do so...

until…

"Calm down, you have to pay for things that are broken!! Really, fortunately I came in time, do you want to demolish half of the street, ah?!!!" Queen Navigator looked condescendingly with her iron fist With two people.

"The bunny ears...Nami-san...so good!!!!" The blond man struggled to get up with a heart-shaped bag on his head. Beside him was Zoro who was grinning and was also knocked to the ground by a punch.

Cut, the answer or something, this time it seems that there is no chance.

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +

[W]

Like every fight between the two, this time it was nothing. After being interrupted by the sudden appearance of Nami, the blond man immediately recommended himself to be a coolie for the navigator. A word that Zoro said was a little bit concerned. No, it was super concerned.

[If you lose this time, answer me a question honestly.]

"Damn green algae head... What's the problem, can't you ask directly?" Today's afternoon tea time is over, Mr. Chef put away the last plate, sat on the sofa and lit a cigarette. After burning most of the cigarette, the blond The man bit his cigarette butt and decided to ask that guy for clarification. He told himself that it was not about winning or losing, but just curious about what the question was. Besides, he had no obligation to answer it.

Zoro hasn't come down since he went directly to the observation deck after returning to the Sonny. Sure enough, he has been exercising. But...

"You..." The blond man pointed to the green head, "Are you still wearing this thing?"

The two black cat ear ornaments are still pinned on the man's hair. I don't know if it's an illusion, maybe it's because I watched too much, Sanji suddenly felt that this picture...is a bit pleasing to the eye?

"Ah, I forgot..." The green-haired man grabbed the ear off and threw it on the seat.

The blond man put his hands in his pockets, picked a random place and sat down to collect his thoughts. "Hey Chlorella, I came to ask you, I was on the island just now... what do you want to ask me?"

Zoro turned around and looked at him seriously, as if judging whether the cook's question was true or not. "I just want to know, if you find that sea, will you stay?"

Sanji froze for a moment.

It's not that he didn't think about this question, it's just that he didn't expect it to be asked by this person.

My dream is the miraculous land that encompasses all the seas in the world. It is precisely because I believe that AllBlue exists that I want to go to sea, leave Baratti who has been guarding me all the time, and enter the great waterway with these partners. So what's the result?What if I found it?

"No." He was decisive. The answer had already been decided.

"…yes?"

The blond man looked at him with his chin resting on his face. The guy had a look of disbelief on his face. He chuckled. "Unless you all have nowhere else to go. But that's unlikely, right?" Sanji spread his hands , "With an adventurous guy like Luffy as the captain, he won't stay in one place for too long, right?"

Zoro felt his heart clenched a little bit, and a feeling of anticipation rose in the depths of his left chest. "That is to say, you won't get off the boat."

Even in the face of the sea of ​​dreams, would you not choose to stay?Even if it is a dream, it is not enough to constitute a reason to stay?A stronger and more irresistible reason to sail with others?

...is this your answer?

"...Could it be that you have any opinion on me as a chef?" The blond man frowned.

"not bad."

"Huh?" What's wrong? !!! Don't know how the brain circuits of plants grow? !!!No, plants don't have brains!!!!

"I'm just saying, you'll be sailing with other people."

"What an idiot question... If there is no father, are you bastards planning to starve to death at sea? Besides, how can Nami-san and Robin-chan do without the careful care of this prince!!!!"

"That's good, Your Highness." Ignoring the cook's roar of "I'll kill you, bastard", the green-haired man cheerfully changed the subject, "Is there any wine? Forget it, I'll get it myself."

As soon as the words fell, the swordsman jumped out of the observation deck neatly. Sanji thought for two seconds, wondering how the algae could be associated with "drinking" from the last sentence. Let's just drink!!!! Or... Is it worth being so happy to say that staying?

Which one is it?

"...Wait," the blond man suddenly thought of something, and chased after him with a slash, "Who allows you, a bastard, to take wine casually!!!!"

It seems that there are still a lot of mysteries and a lot of unanswerable questions before my eyes, but at least... there is still enough time to understand everything, face everything, and welcome everything. Sooner or later, I will step into the There may be a fork in the road at any time, and the moment I stand at the intersection, I can choose without hesitation.

And in the past, the reason why all the answers have not surfaced...

Just owed an opportunity.

It's just timing.
