It didn’t feel like long, yet it didn’t feel short either.
After all, it had only been a year, but for Chinatsu, this year felt like a century.
The first thing to do on vacation was naturally to return to Foosha Village to take a look.
If Chinatsu, who had transmigrated here, had a place she could call home, it was undoubtedly Dadans House in Foosha Village.
Chinatsu transformed into a phoenix and flew in the sky.
Although Zephyr hadn’t taught her any specific techniques regarding her fruit over this past year, Chinatsu’s understanding of her fruit had gradually improved, and she was already able to achieve a full Mythical Beast transformation.
In the state of the full Mythical Beast phoenix, she could truly be said to be nearly immortal; her powerful regenerative ability provided a survival effect comparable to that of a Logia.
While Logia users could be countered by Armament Haki, for a regeneration type like Chinatsu, unless she received attacks that exceeded her level of regeneration or was hit by powerful attacks continuously for a very long time, she was essentially “immortal”!
Relying on the phoenix’s speed, Chinatsu quickly returned to Foosha Village.
Of course, before being seen by others, Chinatsu transformed back from her Mythical Beast form.
She was wearing a Marine recruit uniform, so Chinatsu felt many gazes upon her along the way, but that wasn’t a problem.
Chinatsu walked straight to the small hill next to Foosha Village and arrived at the entrance of Dadans House.
Knock!
Knock!
Knock!
“Who is it at this hour!” Dadan’s voice came from inside, and then the door opened from within.
Dadan looked at Chinatsu standing at the door and couldn’t help but be stunned; for a moment, she actually didn’t recognize Chinatsu.
“It’s me, it’s me, Chinatsu, Luffy’s older sister.” “Chi…
Chinatsu?!
” Dadan looked disbelieving, because Chinatsu’s changes were truly too great.
Compared to a year ago, Chinatsu had matured quite a bit and had also grown taller.
Most importantly, her temperament had undergone an earth-shattering change.
“Chinatsu, did Garp let you come back?” “Ah…
actually, ever since Grandpa Garp sent me to Marineford, he hasn’t bothered with me at all…” Back inside Dadans House, facing Dadan’s confusion, Chinatsu awkwardly reached out a finger to scratch her cheek.
Ever since she entered the recruit training camp, Garp had never come to look for her.
It was too absurd; people who didn’t know might think she wasn’t Garp’s granddaughter, but Zephyr’s.
Dadan wasn’t surprised after hearing Chinatsu’s answer, because she knew Garp had this personality; after all, his grandson Luffy was also raised in this free-range manner.
“Are Luffy and the others out again?” Chinatsu looked at the empty Dadans House.
Chinatsu had actually guessed that Luffy and the others would be out; it would actually be abnormal if they could stay at home quietly.
Chinatsu chatted with Dadan, drank tea, and ate some small snacks.
Life became peaceful in an instant.
What training?
What Marine?
What Zephyr, Garp—at this moment, nothing was important anymore…
“Chinatsu, you must have become very strong now, right?” Dadan looked at Chinatsu, who was wearing the Marine recruit uniform, and asked suddenly.
“Strong?
No, no, I’m quite weak.” Chinatsu shook her head.
She really didn’t feel like she was very strong.
One had to ask, after being beaten by Zephyr every day, how could she build any self-confidence?
Moreover, this old guy had absolutely no intention of showing mercy.
Thinking of this, Chinatsu couldn’t help but let out a heavy sigh.
Don’t think about these things, don’t think about them.
Besides, she was on vacation now and wouldn’t have to see Zephyr.
Wait, Zephyr…
lost arm!
When did Zephyr lose his arm?
According to the setting, it seemed to be nine years before the battle between Luffy and Zephyr.
Although the timeline of the theatrical version was chaotic, if she inserted it, it should be in the last few years.
The training ship led by the 65-year-old Zephyr was attacked by pirates.
All of his beloved students were killed except for Ain and Binz, and his right arm was also severely injured.
Training ship attacked by pirates…
She had to warn Master Zephyr!
After all, having been master and apprentice for a while, how could Chinatsu just sit by and watch?
But she didn’t have a “den den mushi” on hand—did she have to fly back?
“Grandma Dadan, sorry, I need to go back to Marineford.” After Chinatsu finished speaking, she prepared to leave, and the moment she stood up from her seat, her Observation Haki activated.
It was the voices of Luffy, Ace, and Sabo.
A few seconds later, a series of hurried footsteps appeared outside the door.
The door of Dadans House was pushed open with a bang.
Ace, holding a newspaper, shouted excitedly as soon as he entered: “Dadan!
Look, news!
Sister Chinatsu became a Marine Rear Admiral!” Dadan: “Nani???” Chinatsu herself: “Huh???” Me, a Rear Admiral?
How come I don’t know about this?
Chinatsu herself was confused, and Ace and the others were also confused, because the protagonist of the content they were just talking about was standing right in front of them.
“Chi…
Sister Chinatsu?” “Sister!!!” Ace and Sabo were a bit more reserved, but Luffy jumped at Chinatsu directly, though he was dodged by Chinatsu with a very relaxed sidestep.
“Although many absurd things have happened, let’s not talk about that for now.
Long time no see, Ace, Sabo, Luffy.” After a year apart, plus the fact that Chinatsu had left without saying goodbye, the three brothers had too many things they wanted to talk about with Chinatsu.
However, Chinatsu wanted to rush back to Marineford now, so she couldn’t stay long.
“How about this, why don’t you guys come with me to Marineford?
We can chat on the way.” “Huh?
But we’re pirates!” “To be precise, you’re future pirates, not yet, right?
You can go; I’ll take you in.” As Chinatsu said this, the three fell into silence.
After thinking for a moment, Sabo stepped forward and said: “Then I’ll go!” Ace and Luffy looked at Sabo in surprise.
Ignited by Sabo’s answer, Ace and Luffy didn’t think for long either and said they would go too.
This outcome was truly beyond Chinatsu’s expectations.
She really didn’t expect the three brothers to agree to go back to Marineford with her.
It seemed that under her leadership, the three brothers’ personalities had changed more or less.
This was a good thing.
If they could join the Marine together, that would be great.
During her time watching the anime, Chinatsu had fantasized about Ace, Sabo, and Luffy joining the Marine together and the three brothers becoming three Admirals.
“Alright, follow me.
Because I came alone, I can’t carry you back, so we have to find a Marine warship to give us a ride.” Chinatsu wasn’t worried about this; wasn’t she a Rear Admiral now?
Borrowing a Marine warship temporarily shouldn’t be such a difficult thing, right?
Compared to this, Chinatsu wanted to see Grandpa Garp’s reaction when he saw the three brothers coming to Marineford; he would probably burst into tears on the spot from excitement.
As for whether the three brothers could leave Marineford in one piece, that was not in the scope of Chinatsu’s consideration~
