- Konosuba World, Present -
In our backyard at home,
"Catch!"
I was playing catch with son August while the other girls are watching us.
When he caught the ball, he silently threw it back to me.
I caught it with my left hand and returned it to him.
When August was born, I wasn't there for him because I returned back to the future. Right now, I'm trying to make up with him as a father.
"Hey, Father!"
He called me while trembling as he catch the ball then he threw it back to me.
"Hm? What wrong?"
August pointed at the girls under the tree having a picnic.
"Just how many lovers do you have aside from my mom and Irene-san?!" he angrily asked.
"Umm... I think it's already more than twenty... I don't know... because my relationship with others is not clear yet."
"You womanizer!"
"Well... I already can't deny that..."
I felt dejected looking away.
"Because it's inevitable..."
August's cheek twitched,
"Inevitable?"
"Guess who?"
Suddenly, someone covered my eyes and I felt something very soft pushing in my back.
That voice...
I won't mistake.
"Perverted Goddess..."
"Perverted Goddess... You still calling me with that name, Sun-kun?"
She let go of eyes as I glanced at her.
(Img<<<)
She was still cosplaying as Rem.
"Fake Rem?"
"Call me with my real name!" she retorted.
"Well then, Earth... Do you need me or something?"
A vein popped up on her forehead.
"Sun-kun! Supposedly, for you... we didn't see each other for four centuries and that's how will you treat me?"
She got mad at me.
*Sigh*
I sighed,
"I don't really wanna show you but... can you turn around, Earth?"
"Why are you asking me--"
"Just do it! Hurry!"
"Huh? What's wrong with you--"
When she turned around, I immediately hugged her from behind tightly.
"Earth! Guess what..."
"What is it, Sun-kun?"
She held warmly my arms.
"The truth is..."
I hid my face behind her back, trying not to show it to everyone.
I'm trying to suppress it back but remembering those times when I'm alone at that timeline.
I really felt helpless when I'm missing them.
Their warmth, touch and hug.... I really miss them a lot.
Those chaotic days... peaceful times when I was spending with them...
I really want to go back home.
"I miss you, Gaia..."
Those words came out from my mouth as I whispered to her.
"Sun-kun..."
She gave me a beautiful smile.
"Hehe... As I thought, you were just shy, right? Sun-kun? How cute..."
(Img<<<)
"Shut up!"
My hug turned into a choke around her neck.
"Tap! Tap! Tap! I give up! Why are you choking your pregnant wife!"
Letting go of her,
"Anyway, Earth... Do you know where my real body went? I only got my memories."
"Oh, you're real body? It's currently in One Piece World."
"One Piece?"
"Yes... Looks like, it will take several years again before your real body returns back. I think you should know it yourself. I will connect you with your real body."
Gaia touched my forehead with her palm.
"Huh?"
Another memories surge in my head and I finally connected with my real body.
God Valley... Rocks Pirates... Battle with Whitebeard...
I saw myself sinking in the deep sea and I can see Newgate drowning unable to move because he is a devil fruit user.
I grabbed him and swam above, dragging him with me.
"How was it, Sun-kun?"
"Yeah, I finally connected with the real me. Thank you, Earth."
"Hehe..."
Now, I have to find Raftel Island and summon my daughter Sayu. While my real body is busy with that, I have to deal with Risa. I hope she won't hate me.

(Harukin's POV)
- One Piece World, 38 years ago -
After the God Valley Island disappeared without a trace, I was with Newgate on the raft I built with broken pieces of wood that I gathered in the middle of the sea.
"Ugh..."
Newgate's conscious finally returned after getting nearly drowned.
Devil fruit user can't swim in the sea except me because Gaia took off the curse.
Just now, I finally have a connection with my thought projection with the help of Gaia. I'm glad everyone are doing okay including my daughter Coco and my son with Mavis, August. I was disheartened of what happened with Mavis after I disappeared by her side.
I glad that my thought projection was doing great even during my absence. I'm glad I learned this magic because I felt like I'm in two worlds and timeline on same the time. It's really convenient.
Glancing at Newgate who's throwing up water from his mouth as he sat up.
"Oh, you're finally awake, Newgate."
*Cough!* *Cough!* *Cough!*
"Kid! Where am I? Where is this place?"
"God Valley."
"God Valley? I can't find the Island around!"
"I don't know... It just suddenly vanish out of thin air when I rose up from underwater with you."
"Did you save me?"
"Yes..."
"Kid, are you an idiot? You just saved someone who tried to kill you!"
"Kill me? Even you three band together, it won't be enough to defeat me."
Newgate frowned at me.
"Huh?"
In the distance, I saw a marine ship approaching us.
"Marines?"
(Img<<<)
I noticed their cannon was pointing towards our direction.
"Looks like they're target is me. The remnants of Rocks Pirates."
I stood up, grinning.
"They came at the right time. We'll need their ship to get out of this place. This raft won't be enough just for the us."
*Boom!* *Boom!* *Boom!*
Cannon ball flew towards us.
I jumped running through the air and kicked away the cannon balls.
I landed down on the sea and ran through the surface of seawater as Hamon flickered around my feet.
"Don't let him get here!"
The marine soldiers was shooting me with their guns but I easily dodged their bullets.
Jumping high, flipping midair several times, I landed on their ship smoothly.
"Attack!"
The marine soldiers charged towards me with their swords.
Activating my conqueror's Haki around,
"Kuwwikukkkk!* *Brrnnnnnnnnnnnnnt*
One by one, they fell down on the floor unconscious.
After taking over the ship, I put all the marine soldiers on a small boat together and let them drift on the sea.
Goodluck to them.
Now, we have acquired a ship to sail on the sea.
The problem is... this is marine ship and we might chase by their entire fleet after what we did but I don't really care now as long we have a ship that we can shelter in this violent sea.
Newgate sat on the deck, holding a bottle of alcohol he found on this ship.
"You're pirate crew has already disbanded after your Captain's defeat. What are you going to do from now on, Newgate?"
*Gulp* *Gulp* *Gulp*
He drank the bottle of alcohol.
"Ahhh~"
"I haven't thought of it yet, kid. For the time being, I want to continue sailing the sea."
"Okay..."
Going to check the rooms where I can find a place to sleep on this ship.
"He he he..."
I heard a female voice laughing in one of the rooms in the distance.
I walked through the hallway to follow the voice and I arrived at the farthest room.
"Mmmmh!"
This time it was a moan.
"Don't tell me!"
I opened the door and look what inside the room.
On the floor, I saw a young woman wearing a red pirate outfit drinking wine. She has crimson red hair, tied into twin-tails with laced ribbons, topped with a removable pirate hat. She has heterochromia, with her left iris being golden, and her right iris is red.
"Who's there! *Hicc!*
She was drunk.
(Img<<<)
My cheek twitched seeing her.
"A pirate? What are you doing here in Marine's ship?"
"What are you talking about? My name is written on this ship so I came in."
"Your name? Like I said, this is a Marine Ship! Did you hear me or you're just too drunk?!" I said loud and clear.
"Exactly! My name is Marine so this must be my ship." *Hicc!*
I facepalm hearing what she said.
"Huh?"
She tried to look carefully on my face.
"You look very familiar." *Hicc!*
Seeing her cute face closely, I can't deny that she's a beautiful girl. But her smell is just disappointing.
(Img<<<)
She took off my hand away from my face then she looked more closely.
Is she doing this on on purpose?
Very well if that what she wants.
I was about to put my arm around her waist to pull her closer,
"Wait! Dad, is that you?"
Hearing that, I immediately moved away from her.
If she called me Dad, don't tell me!
"What's your mother name?!" I quickly asked.
"My mom's name? It's Lalatina."
I felt really disappointed.
That was close! No wonder I haven't seen this girl from this world.
That means, this girl is one of my troublesome daughters in the future!
"Papa! Let's sleep together!"
She suddenly jumped on me but I stopped her.
"No! Go and take a bath! You stinks!"
"Eh?!"
"I said, No!"
