Dylan didn't say anything else after hearing Ain's words.
The two stood on the bow of the boat and looked at the distant sea together.
Ain had been following him for seven years. This female swordsman did not have high achievements in the original history and ended sadly...
Looking at her ocean-blue hair flying in the wind, Dylan smiled.
"Some things..."
Dylan paused and then sighed: "Actually, I haven't gotten the accurate result yet, but...if I destroy the 'National Treasure' in the future, after getting the answer, you... and Tama."
Dylan turned to look at Ain.
Doesn't he understand her thoughts?
Of course not, but as he said to Bell-mère back then, his journey is far from over, so he cannot leave any flaws or regrets.
And once he had a child, it was inevitable that the child would fall into the power of the vortex.
It may even become a tool for others.
"I know that in addition to practicing swordsmanship these years, you have also been learning knowledge. Let me tell you some of my guesses..."
Dylan raised his hand, and his palm slowly turned into lightning.
"Use Armament Haki."
Ain's eyebrows narrowed slightly. But she still covered her right hand with Armament Haki and grabbed it towards Dylan's palm.
"!!"
Her Haki-covered palm still penetrated Dylan's palm.
Dylan smiled at her: "I didn't elementalize in advance."
"Is this... Logia's true awakening?"
Dylan shook his head: "I don't know, because it can't be defined, and there are things about me that are different from you. But what I can tell you is,"
Dylan glanced at her with a rare look of expectation:
"If you can reach this point in the future, we will meet again in the starry sky."
A bright color flashed in Ain's eyes, and her white palms tightly grasped Shusui's handle.
"The Flame-Flame Fruit is in my hand, and the Magnet-Magnet Fruit is also quite good. After everything is over, you can choose to eat one of them. If Tama is willing, she can eat the other one, or..."
Looking at the woman who had been with him for many years without any regrets, Dylan held onto the side of the boat with both hands: "You can wait until Kizaru dies and then go look for the Glint-Glint Fruit.
That fruit will be faster, and if it develops smoothly, it will be more suitable for traveling in the starry sky."
"Good."
Ain nodded.
A smile appeared on her face.
A strong wind blew in their faces, and the fleet swayed with the strong wind and waves.
But then the waves died down.
On the flank of the fleet, a brown figure stood on the wave.
"Mr. Tom..."
If there is one unit with the lowest shooting record, it may be the 07 combat unit.
But if you want to say the most unfathomable, besides Dylan, it must be Tom.
The world still cannot accurately judge the strength of Tom and Tahir.
Some say they are already on par with an Admiral.
But more people believe that their strength has surpassed an Admiral.
The wave slowly carried Tom to the front of the fleet, and Tom looked serious.
What he was worried about was not the outcome of the war in front of him.
Because there is no suspense about this war.
He was thinking about something else.
What role will he play in the next "final battle"?
What can he do for this world and that man?
Dylan looked at the figure standing on the wave and smiled happily.
Firm, strong, steady, and reliable.
This is one of the few people he can trust completely.
It will also be one of the very important forces in the "Final Battle."
"Vice Admiral, arriving at Port Habu in Hakumai."
"Prepare to land."
"Yes!"
The fleet brought here is the G-5 main fleet that has barely participated in any battle.
Standing upright on both sides of the cabin are the Guyman brothers who have returned from the Sakura Kingdom.
Dylan turned his head and glanced at the Guyman brothers: "You lead a team to eliminate pirates and members of the Kurozumi family outside the Flower Capital."
"Yes!"
The Guyman brothers looked solemn. After getting off the boat, they waved to Marines who had already formed a team.
An elite force of two hundred people headed in the direction of Ringo.
On the other side, Tom, Shiryu, and Tahir were already waiting on the shore.
"Shiryu, lead your team to clear the way, and execute all pirates, Kurozumi family members, and gangsters along the way. The target——"
"The Ebisu Town."
"Understood."
Shiryu glanced behind him, and another soldier followed him.
...
"He's here and has landed at Port Habu."
Hearing King's words, Kaido slowly opened his eyes.
As his eyes opened, Onigashima began to shake slowly.
"It seems no one else is coming..."
Onigashima slowly floated into the sky, and Kaido, who turned into a giant dragon, grabbed the flame cloud and looked in the direction of the Flower Capital.
"Oden... your prediction... is wrong!"
At the corner of Onigashima, Yamato looked at the slowly rising island with a puzzled expression.
That bastard Kaido...does he want to do something bad again?
Hateful!
She punched the shackles on her left hand.
If you weren't bound by this kind of thing...
Yamato stood up and looked into the distance, holding her mace Takeru tightly in her right hand.
Kaido, no matter what bad thing you try to do, I will stop you.
As "Kozuki Oden"!
She thought of the man who came to Wano with Ace four years ago.
Is he here?
She could occasionally hear other people talking about him before, and he seemed to have turned into a really great guy.
But since he suddenly appeared a year ago, destroyed the factory, and killed Who's-Who, that person's name has become taboo on Onigashima.
She had seen with her own eyes a few drunk guys who accidentally talked about some of that person's deeds, but they were quickly executed on the spot by King.
What on earth did he do?
Besides...
It's obvious that he doesn't hate Ace. But why didn't he save Ace?
"A piece of trash like Kozuki Oden is useless except for having a little power!"
The man's words once deeply hurt Yamato, but she quickly regained her composure.
They don't understand Oden, his sacrifice, and righteousness.
Perhaps feeling something, the eyes of the giant blue dragon in the sky moved slightly.
Looking at the white figure standing on the edge of Onigashima, Kaido immediately withdrew his gaze.
King, who was flying beside Kaido, also glanced down.
"Yamato... Kaido really loves you... but you..."
Why...
King sighed inwardly. This was a grudge dispute between their father and daughter, and it was difficult for him to speak.
But King always felt sad for Kaido in his heart.
Kaido looked into the distance, with no hesitation or doubt in his eyes.
There was only excitement and determination.
