On the calm sea, the Sakura drifted gently on the sea with the waves.

"Ace and Jinbe, haven't they arrived yet? I'd better be ready to take off."

Yamato was lying on the sofa, looking bored, as if the days of sailing on the sea had caused an extreme loss of her spiritual life. She had gradually become a girl who had no dreams and just wanted to get off the boat and go to the mountains to breathe fresh air.

Too bad.

"Soon... soon..."

Ace said to Yamato with a headache. He really didn't dare to say that the reason why he hadn't arrived for so long was because he had accidentally read the wrong route on the navigation chart before.

"Ah... so boring... I want to go out and get some fresh air."

Yamato said and sat up from the sofa, she stretched and walked out of the house.

"Never tamper with any equipment on the ship! Remember that!"

Ace looked at Yamato who was walking outside and reminded him nervously.

"I know! I won't move. Really, I'm not a child."

Yamato waved his hand at Ace. These crew members were just as annoying as Jhin and Quinn, as if they always treated her like a child.

"well……"

Yamato lay with his hands on the railing of the deck of the Sakura, looking at the endless sea that seemed to be the limit of every day.

"The sea is really big!"

Yamato looked at the calm sea and sighed in his heart.

The blue sea water, the fish jumping from the sea from time to time, and the shadow of the island in the distance that seemed very close but was actually extremely far away. These beautiful pictures of nature made Yamato mesmerized for a while.

Until a menacing man appeared in Yamato's field of vision. He was wearing a white and blue suit, riding a bicycle on the sea carefree... Yes, this man could actually ride a bicycle on the sea.

"Hey! Why can you ride a bike on the sea?"

Yamato's eyes were shining with golden light. She looked at the figure of the man sailing on the sea and asked with interest.

The man paused after hearing Yamato's words, then rode straight to the Sakura.

"Um?!"

Yamato looked at the man who suddenly appeared in front of her strangely. She suddenly felt that this man seemed familiar, but for a while she couldn't remember where she had seen him.

It wasn't until the other party picked up his bicycle and jumped onto the deck of the Sakura that Yamato finally remembered who the person in front of him was.

"Hey~ I haven't seen you for about ten years! Yamato!"

The man was wearing a white and blue suit. He was about the same height as Yamato. He had a rock-style perm and an eye patch on his forehead. He looked very lazy, as if he was ready to fall asleep at any time.

"Ah! Uncle Kuzan!"

Yamato watched the man excitedly call out the other person's name.

"I'm sorry~ Actually, I should have come to meet you after I heard that you came to the paradise, but you know, if we meet, there will be a lot of trouble, right?"

Kuzan scratched the back of his head and lectured Yamato.

"By the way, is Uncle Kuzan still working in the navy? How about quitting the navy and joining my pirate group? With Uncle Kuzan's help, I believe I can defeat my father and become the Pirate King."

Yamato smiled at Kuzan and extended the invitation.

"Ah...join your pirate group? This...maybe it's not feasible after all, right?"

Kuzan shook his head at Yamato and asked him to quit the navy. For the time being, it was still impossible! He... also wanted to become a navy marshal and lead the navy on the right track.

"Hey! That guy is..."

Ace, who was checking the chart in the operation cabin, inadvertently saw the man standing on the deck chatting with Yamato. His whole body suddenly felt bad. He subconsciously pressed the alarm and rushed down to the cabin.

Run towards the deck.

"Hey! Yamato, hurry up and get away from that guy, he... is very dangerous!"

Ace stood on the deck and reminded Yamato.

"I wonder why Admiral Aokiji, who is known as the navy's most powerful fighter, came to us? Does he want to start a war?"

That is, at the same time that Ace appeared on the deck, Katakuri also appeared at the edge of the sky garden on the top of the control room.

"What's wrong? Is there an enemy?"

"Ah! That person... is the monster that appeared in Rogge Town!"

Musashi ran out of the cabin after hearing the alarm and looked at Kuzan standing next to Yamato in shock.

"You see...your crew members don't seem to trust me that much."

Kuzan stood beside Yamato, pointed at Ace and others and lectured to Yamato.

"They are just shocked by Uncle Kuzan's identity! After all, Uncle Kuzan is from the navy. He will definitely shock people when he suddenly appears on my pirate ship, but I just need to explain it to them."

Yamato shrugged at Kuzan. With his identity, Kuzan would definitely scare the pirates. Anyone who saw the legendary admiral, the most powerful weapon used by the navy to deal with the emperor of the sea, appeared on his ship.

, everyone will be shocked, right?

"Hahaha...that's right."

Kuzan smiled softly after hearing Yamato's words.

"Let me accept it, this is Uncle Kuzan... he can be regarded as my elder! I came to Zaan when I was very young and was stationed..."

Yamato introduced the relationship between Kuzan and himself to Ace and others.

"Hey, hey! Are you kidding me? Yamato, are you still related to the admiral?"

After hearing what Yamato said, Ace suddenly felt bad. How powerful is Yamato's background? Is she really the princess?

"Eh? Uncle Kuzan is actually a naval admiral? I remember when you were competing with your father in Zaun... you were still a lieutenant admiral, right?"

Yamato heard the name Kuzan in Ace's words, and then he realized that Kuzan had become an admiral.

"Hahaha... That was all many years ago. The general is actually not that great. There are only three in the entire navy, isn't it? I am just one of them."

Kuzan smiled softly at Yamato. There was no hint of showing off in his words. He was just introducing himself to everyone as one of the only three current generals in the entire navy.

"Ah...it would be nice if your expression was more modest."

Musashi looked at Kuzan speaking plainly with the most proud expression, and couldn't help but complain.

"So...what is the reason for Mr. Admiral's visit?"

Mihawk, holding a stack of newspapers in his hand, came gently to the deck and asked Kuzan.

"How do you say it? Are you going to Sky Island? To be honest, I had such a dream when I was a child. Dream... huh? What is my dream... Just wait a moment..."

Kuzan said that something suddenly got stuck here. He rummaged through his trouser pocket and took out a small piece of paper. He read directly from it.

"Oh! By the way! My dream is to go to the Sky Island one day, but I have always been hampered by the lack of a way to go there. Then I suddenly heard a friend of mine tell me that you also plan to go to the Sky Island and have found a way.

, so I came to you, I think you kind-hearted people will not see my poor admiral unable to realize his dream, right?"

Kuzan used very exaggerated acting skills to preach to the crowd.

"It's so fake! Who would believe this! Do you think we are fools?"

Musashi pouted. The other party's behavior of secretly taking out a small piece of paper from his trouser pocket and peeking at his dream in front of them was simply ridiculous. Did the other party regard them as blind? Don't think they can't see this behavior!

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu can

Yamato gently wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, then patted Kuzan on the shoulder.

"Yeah! Please, Yamato!"

Kuzan nodded lightly at Yamato, his eyes were very serious, but the slightly raised corners of his mouth revealed his inner activities that were happy because the trick had succeeded.

"Ah!! The fool appears!"

Musashi looked at Yamato who was moved to tears by Kuzan, and felt that his heart had been hit hard. How on earth did such a guy live to be so old? Oh! By the way, the other person's father is Kaido, so it's okay.

…

It’s strange that nothing happens!

"Hey! Yamato, you were deceived by him! Don't believe him!"

Musashi came to the front in one stride, blocked Yamato behind him, and said loudly.

"What? Have I been cheated?"

After listening to Musashi's words, Yamato said belatedly, but her words were still full of disbelief, because what Kuzan just said was so true, as true as what Kozuki Oden said before he went to sea.

The voyage diary written is average.

"certainly……"

Musashi turned around and nodded to Yamato.

"Tch...just a little bit..."

Kuzan curled his lips and said with great dissatisfaction.

"Asshole! It's illegal to deceive a fool! Don't you know?"
