After Dylan left, Dragon stood there and thought for a long time.
He could vaguely feel that he was being plotted against.
Especially Luffy's journey was full of weirdness from his perspective.
Although Bartholomew Kuma once helped them for his own reasons, it was not under Dragon's own instructions.
As the leader of a huge organization, he would never do such a thing without proper cause.
A series of subsequent events, including Garp's entanglement with Luffy, made Dragon more convinced that there was a huge force behind all this.
Kingdom of Goa...
Since more than ten years ago, there have been several forces fighting openly and secretly in the seemingly peaceful "Weakest Sea."
The Revolutionary Army's Eastern Army, Adams Dylan's people, the CP organization, and...
People from that mysterious organization.
It wasn't until the Battle of Sabaody Archipelago and the Battle of Dressrosa that Dragon truly realized how huge that organization was and how unfathomable its strength was.
They could even control the long-lost Rocks!
The new generation has little awareness or impression of Rocks, but Dragon knew it.
His father's name as "Marine Hero" came from that man, and...
My father seemed to be very resistant to that name. It didn't look like a winner at all.
······
Kingdom of Girona.
Camilla, accompanied by Bamond, boarded the Marine warship.
Standing next to the warship, Brannew looked at the woman walking slowly in front of him.
Although he had read her information in the reports, Brannew was still a little surprised when he saw her in person.
So young!?
Girona is not a member of the World Government and the Marines do not have a branch here.
This kind of thing is very rare. Especially for such a large country.
More than a year ago, when the saying "Girona is the back garden of Adams Dylan" spread, Brannew and the others really began to pay attention to this country that only took less than twenty years to rise again.
But by then it was too late.
Joyboy had entered the Grand Line. In addition to guarding the "gods", their people from all over the world gradually began to migrate to the Grand Line.
When Shanks ordered them to send people to sneak in, this place was already a dangerous place.
Their people had come, but no news was ever sent back, and no one left here alive.
"Queen Camilla."
"Commodore Brannew, thank you for coming."
Facing Camilla, Brannew looked composed.
His resume in the Marines was very clean, and he did not believe that Adams Dylan knew his identity.
The man rarely returned to Marineford and rarely attended large high-level meetings.
On several occasions, he skillfully avoided meeting the man.
After boarding the warship, Camilla smiled lightly at Brannew: "I'll leave the rest of the journey in your capable hands, Commodore."
"It's my duty."
······
"The World Summit is about to start. Leo and the others are also ready to send messages."
"Well... let's prepare too."
"Blackbeard?"
Dylan shook his head: "Let's go to Wano first."
As the G5 fleet arrived at Itachi Port in Kuri, the surrounding people looked over with admiration.
"My lord, the Royal Lord of Heaven."
The people around them knelt on the ground respectfully. Dylan ignored them and took Ain and Tahir to continue towards the Flower Capital.
"You see, that's the way it is here."
Dylan looked over at Wano.
The weapons factory had been almost demolished by the Guyman brothers.
The air has become much fresher, and the river is gradually becoming clearer under the wash of fresh water.
But the people here... haven't changed at all.
In the Alabasta incident two years ago, although Cobra was framed by Crocodile.
But the people there still had the courage to resist, and even the rebel coalition once reached the vicinity of the royal capital.
In order to fight for their due power and living space, the people of Sky Island have been fighting endlessly for hundreds of years between the Shandians and the Skypieans.
Only the people of Wano...
They were willing to be enslaved for decades for an inexplicable and unknown so-called "prophecy."
No...
It's not even as simple as being enslaved.
Now that Kaido has been defeated and the Kozuki family has been wiped out, they happily accept their rule.
They even named him the "Master of Heaven's Imperial Palace".
Tama stood behind Dylan, grabbing Dylan's cloak and looking at the Wano people gathering from all directions around the river.
From the age of 4 to 8, it is a critical moment in shaping a person's outlook and cognition.
During this time, Tama has been spending her time in Green Bit.
The current Wano seems so strange to her.
Green Bit's openness, warmth, and impartiality seem out of place with everything else here.
Although she was still young, she vaguely understood her elder brother's intention.
Dylan knelt down and held Tama's thin shoulders, looking at her with encouraging eyes:
"After big brother leaves, you must study hard with Teacher Tahir, and...I will arrange for Vegapunk to teach you scientific knowledge. This is very important!"
There was no one else around, only Tama, Tahir, and Ain.
Dylan glanced at them and said: "In addition to breaking free at the soul level, there are two very important points to fully control the power of the fruit. One is imagination, and the other is the improvement of cognition!"
Dylan patted Tama and stood up again. He looked at Tahir.
His "divine nature" has been perfected, and the original Tamamo No Mae has "left."
"There is still room for improvement in your strength, but that will happen in the future. Now you have an extraordinary lifespan, so you still have enough time to supplement your knowledge in the days to come."
Dylan remembered the past.
He remembered the original world.
"The foundation of this world itself is very strong. As long as the direction is right, it may only take a few decades to broaden the boundaries of science to an unimaginable level."
The power of science matches Devil Fruits and the original power system of this world.
No matter how you look at it, they all have the strength to roam the Star Sea.
Ain looked at Tama, her eyes full of love.
She also knew that once Dylan left, the child in front of her would be alone and helpless again.
Even if the world has returned to peace by then.
Even then, the most powerful men in this sea will all come from Dylan.
But that doesn't have much to do with Tama herself.
"Tama needs to study hard. Your brother Dylan only got the Rumble-Rumble Fruit when he was in his twenties. It only took him 10 years to achieve this."
After a slight pause, Ain touched Tama's head: "At that time, I will ask everyone to help find the Glint-Glint Fruit for you, so that you can reunite with your big brother as soon as possible."
After speaking, Ain held Shusui's handle slightly tightly.
Once Tama reaches her age, Kizaru will always refuse to die...
Others can't do anything to him, but Tahir...
She glanced at Tahir with her peripheral vision. Tahir raised the corners of his mouth slightly but said nothing.
