Chapter 237: Landing One After Another
After several days of drifting through the air, Weatheria finally arrived above Sabaody.
At this time, a group of old men were standing on the edge of the island, seeing Reiner and the others off.
"Goodbye, young man, little girl."
"We wish you a pleasant journey."
"Come back often when you have time, you two."
Two years had passed in a flash. The arrival of Reiner and Nami had also brought a not-so-warm companionship to this group of 'empty-nesters'.
Summoning his falcon and jumping on, Reiner looked back and smiled, "Take care of yourselves, everyone. Don't wait until the next time we come, we'll only be able to visit your graves."
"Say something nice, you idiot!"
Slap!
Nami slapped him on the head irritably, then sat on the falcon with Apis and waved goodbye to Haredas and the others.
"We're off, everyone."
Then, under the reluctant gazes of the crowd, the falcon flapped its wings and left the place where they had lived for two years.
"Sigh~~, finally sent these two little devils off."
Haredas hung his head and sighed, stroking his large white beard as he trudged back to his empty home.
The master bedroom where Reiner and the others had lived was now spotlessly clean.
"How strange. It suddenly feels lonely."
Looking at the empty room, Haredas slowly walked back to the guest room, preparing to move his things over.
He opened the door, and a folded white paper fell from the door crack.
"Hmm?" Haredas bent down to pick it up, unfolding it with a puzzled expression. It read:
[Keep the master bedroom for us, you old geezer. If you die early, remember to write a will and transfer the house to my name.
—Reiner.]
"That's too much, you bastard! You're even eyeing my house!"
Bang!
Haredas blew his beard and glared, throwing the letter into the trash can. He slammed the door and went to bed.
Sabaody Archipelago, inside a noisy tavern.
A group of diners were gathered together, loudly arguing about who had a chance to defeat Mihawk and claim the throne of the world's greatest swordsman.
"It's Flower Sword Vista!"
"If you ask me, it's impossible for anyone to defeat Mihawk."
"Bullshit! The Yonko Red-Hair is said to be a master swordsman too!"
"No, no, no, all those you mentioned are old!"
Bang! Bang!
A man slammed the table, took out a wanted poster with a bounty of three hundred million Berries, scanned the crowd, and shouted, "Considering future potential, of course, Roronoa has the best chance!"
"Yo, not bad taste." A man in a cloak walked over.
His face under the cloak couldn't be seen clearly, only three golden earrings on his left ear were vaguely visible. He smiled, "I also think he will definitely become the world's greatest swordsman."
However, these words drew a roar of laughter from the others.
"Puhahaha, to actually say Roronoa!"
"It's been two years since we've heard any news of him!"
"Exactly, maybe he's already dead."
Bang! Bang! Bang!
A sudden attack, too fast for the naked eye to see. Only a few dull sounds were heard, and everyone was on the table with bumps on their heads.
Casually picking up a glass of wine and downing it in one gulp, the cloaked Zoro walked out with a grim face.
Outside on the commercial street, in front of a stall.
"Boss, I want one cotton candy!" Chopper took off his backpack, unzipped it, took out a coin, and held it up.
"Here you go, your cotton candy."
"Thank you."
Taking the cotton candy and continuing on his way, Chopper licked it, a happy expression on his face.
Just then, two figures at the end of the street caught his attention.
A pot-bellied man with a sword at his waist and a head of green, choppy hair, and a thin, blond man with a cigarette dangling from his lips, walked side by side.
"Hey, Zoro! Sanji!"
Chopper's eyes lit up. He rushed forward on his two legs, shouting at the two of them, "I'm here! Long time no see! You've both changed so much!"
"Hmm?" Hearing the voice, the two of them stopped, looking at the enthusiastic Chopper with a bewildered expression.
"A tanuki?"
"A talking tanuki?"
On the other side, in a magazine shop, the lady boss was putting up a poster of the Soul King.
At the entrance, a watermelon-headed fat man walked past with a squad of Pacifistas, immediately catching his attention.
"Hey, hey, hey, no way! Isn't that the Marine's science unit? What are they doing here?"
The lady boss hurriedly ran out. Looking at the poster in her hand, she suddenly thought of something, her expression excited. "Could it be! The rumor of the Straw Hat crew's reunion is true!"
Thinking of this, she hurriedly ran back to pack her things, then quickly combed her bangs in front of a mirror.
Without even putting up the 'Temporarily Closed' sign, she locked the door and rushed out.
At a corner, not paying attention, she bumped directly into a long-nosed man who was hiding and peeking at the Pacifistas!
Bang!
"Ouch!"
"Hey, hey, hey, are you alright?"
Usopp, who was bumped, staggered. The lady boss, however, fell flat on her face. He hurriedly went forward to help her up.
"So painful. Sorry, I was in a bit of a hurry," the lady boss said, standing up and holding her forehead.
"Well, it's nothing, it's nothing. Be careful," Usopp said, waving his hand.
Seeing that the other was not seriously injured, the lady boss apologized embarrassedly and then continued to run after the Pacifistas.
Usopp scratched his head and sighed, "Looks like the Marines have already made their move."
"Hey, Usopp! I saw your nose from a great distance away, hahaha!"
Just then, a voice came from behind. Usopp whipped his head around and saw a tall man in a floral shirt, both familiar and unfamiliar, walking towards him.
He rubbed his eyes and confirmed it again. Looking at the lower half of the body, which was only wearing a pair of swimming trunks, Usopp's heart was set at ease, and he rushed forward excitedly!
"Franky!!"
"It's none other than me!!"
Franky grinned. "You kid, you've gotten a lot sturdier these past two years."
"Hahaha! Hey Franky, you've changed so much too! I almost thought I saw wrong!" Usopp was so excited he couldn't suppress the corner of his mouth.
"Ara, it's Usopp and Franky."
Just then, another voice came from the alley. The two immediately followed the sound and looked. A beautiful woman with a sexy, graceful figure and long, straight black hair walked out of the shadows.
Robin lifted her sunglasses and smiled. "Long time no see."
"Goodbye, Sanji-boy!"
"We'll miss you, mua!"
At the edge of the island, a ship had just docked. A blond man with a grim face immediately shot out like a cannonball.
"Finally..."
"Finally..."
"I'm finally out alive!!"
Sanji cried his eyes out, fleeing towards the island as if a bottomless abyss of hell were behind him.
"Women! Where are the women? Let me see a woman!!"
On the ship, the okama crew watched Sanji leave with tears in their eyes.
And at this moment, another ship with a sheep's head as its figurehead slowly pulled up beside them.
On the second-floor balcony, Rayleigh opened the door and walked out of the cabin. Looking at the boy in the red vest on the forecastle deck, he smiled. "Let's go, Luffy."
"Thanks, Rayleigh."
A corner of Luffy's mouth lifted slightly. He pressed down the straw hat on his head. "It's really nostalgic, everyone."
