Chapter 401: Banquet

Nightfall.

The sun was gradually disappearing below the horizon, painting the sky a scarlet color.

On the divided island of Poisonous Sakura Island, under a large rock, where the petals of the poisonous sakura do not reach. There were very few people on this island, because one can only live in peace in such small places, reliably protected by rocks.

A large bonfire burned in the middle of the clearing.

Torches were stuck in the ground on all sides, completely illuminating this clearing.

The atmosphere here was as hot as the flames of a campfire.

"Hey! Look! That's my wine, you bastard!"

The captain of the 4th Whitebeard Pirate Division, Thatch, shouted loudly at Vista.

Vista took a sip of wine and laughed, "Ha ha ha, why do you care so much? Today is a rare occasion when papa treats us, so there's enough wine for everyone."

"It's precisely because this is a gift from Papa that we must save!"

Thatch growled in exasperation, "If you keep eating like this, I'm going to gut all your savings!"

Whitebeard is usually quite stingy and rarely spends on drinking, he sends most of his funds to the people of his home island.

Thatch and the others understand Whitebeard's situation perfectly.

Whitebeard smiled as he noticed the argument between Thatch and Vista: "Gu-ra-ra-ra-ra, a bunch of stupid kids, mustn't save.... all the booze is on me today!"

Marco, who was sitting next to Whitebeard, took a sip of wine and looked at Yeruashi nearby: "The destruction of the Holy Land of Marijoa was unbelievable news.... I've always hated these Heavenly Dragons, but unfortunately I don't have the power and ability to cause chaos wherever I want, ah".

Yeruashi just smiled and raised his wine glass without saying anything.

Marco emptied his glass and looked around, "Hey, What about the wine? give it to me here... hurry up!"

Whitebeard, who was holding a huge glass in his hand, looked at Marko, "I see you're not saving anything, brat."

Marko burst out laughing, knowing that Whitebeard was joking, "How can I miss such a rare occasion when my daddy deals at his expense?"

There was a noisy atmosphere in the clearing, but this was what created a sense of warmth and closeness.

It's not just blood that makes people family.

Unlike the Whitebeard Pirates, almost all of the Big Mama Pirates were Charlotte Linlin's children, but the blood connection made only a few of them truly close.

Yeruashi looked at his reflection in the glass and emptied it in one gulp, closing his eyes.

Whitebeard's last question awakened his old memories and made him think, which was why Yeruashi wanted to have a drink with the Whitebeard Pirates.

He remembered his past and thought about the future he would like to be in.

In the past, he spent almost all of his free time practicing, even the time at the Shinobi academy was often used to train chakra control.

It seemed like those times passed in an instant.

Love letters and bento girls, a friendly and carefree atmosphere all around....

Although Yeruashi can become a boy without any problems and try to relive this again, but now it will not be possible to immerse himself in this atmosphere so harmoniously.

Since arriving in the world of One Piece, Yeruashi has never had the feeling that he is able to fit into this world until now... becoming a part of it.

In the past, he felt like a full-fledged part of Naruto's world, even though he came from the outside, but in the world of One Piece, he was just a traveler.

The past time has already left an indelible mark on him.

After coming to his senses, Yeruashi turned his head and looked at Robin, who was sitting next to him, "Tired of the noise? Do you want me to send you to the ship?"

Robin smiled and shook her head when she heard Yeruashi's words, "Sometimes it's nice to go to a noisy party."

In fact, Robin thought, since Yeruashi was here, she should be right next to him.

Robin could not understand where this feeling came from, but being next to Yeruashi, she felt a long-forgotten peace and tranquility.

If Yeruashi wasn't around for a while, Robin would begin to feel an inexplicable longing inside.

Today was her twelfth birthday.

A twelve-year-old girl experienced a feeling of love.

"Yes."

Yeruashi nodded.

When he finished his wine, he noticed Robin's very familiar youthful gaze.

"Uh..."

He sighed a little helplessly.

Although Yeruashi was well aware that with his charisma and charm, it was very hard for the surrounding girls not to fall in love after spending some time with him, but it was still nice.

Love is so much better than hate, isn't it?

Not to mention the fact that Robin would turn out to be a very attractive girl.

"Are you going to see other places in the New World now?"

Whitebeard, who was holding a huge glass of wine in his hand, looked at Yeruashi, who was sitting next to her.

Yeruashi nodded to Whitebeard: "Yes, I really liked the second half of Grand Line, there seems to be many scenic places worth visiting, by the way... you have a map of the New World, don't you?"

"Of course, do you need a map?"

After drinking the wine from the glass, Whitebeard looked at Yeruashi and turned to Marco, "Marco, make a copy of the map of the New World!"

Although navigation in the waters of the New World is conducted with the help of International and Log Pose, and not at the expense of maps, maps of the sea are still compiled.

With the exception of Laugh Tale, the Whitebeard Pirates visited most of the New World islands and naturally marked each one on the map, plus routes were indicated to set up Log Pose.

"Thanks, then I owe you one."

Yeruashi took a sip of wine and nodded to Whitebeard.

Whitebeard smiled, "Forget it, it's a small thing."

Yeruashi smiled, and a pale golden glow shone in the depths of his eyes, vaguely resembling the shape of a clock.

"As a thank you, I'll tell you about the future I saw, it's related to your family's safety... be careful when you find a devil fruit."

Yeruashi didn't say anything about Teach, because he is now thoroughly hiding his true ambitions and goals, having a reputation among the Whitebeard Pirates as an honest and good-natured guy.

He didn't mind Teach's ambitions at all and didn't want to spoil a great feast, so he only mentioned it casually.

"Hmm... I'll remember that."

Whitebeard nodded gravely.

A person like Yeruashi would never say something like that without a reason, perhaps he really did see a future where his family faced a great threat.

Such words from the mouth of such a person really deserved attention.
