He leaped off the red earth peak, which is 10,000 meters above sea level.
Feeling weightless and rapidly falling, experiencing palpitations and panic.
A fierce wind howled, like the wailing of ghosts and the howling of gods, constantly filling my ears with unease and fear.
And the sea, which is getting closer and closer over time.
Ginny ignored all of this, instead suppressing her fear and heart palpitations, and trying to focus her attention and thoughts on Bonney in her arms.
She knew.
This is the last time I will see my daughter in this lifetime, so I don't want to waste such precious time on fear, panic, or screaming. Instead, I want to spend it with my daughter.
Women in the Grand Line are not weak to begin with, and become even more fierce after becoming mothers.
Bell-mère was like that.
The same goes for Ginny.
Holding her daughter in her arms, she seemed oblivious to death.
In the final moments of his life, he loved Bonney as much as possible.
Sizzle
Suddenly.
A sudden tearing sound rang out, causing Ginny, who had been prepared to face death and whose mind and attention were focused on Bonney, to involuntarily look up and then look in the direction from which the sound came.
Upon looking up, she realized that the sky above had been torn apart, like a sea monster opening its blood-red maw, perched on the dome, directly facing her.
call out
The next second.
As golden light burst forth, a golden beam of light shot out from the Garganta, descending upon Ginny and Bonney and enveloping them.
The mother and daughter, who were falling rapidly, stopped abruptly the moment they were enveloped by the golden beam of light, without suffering the slightest harm.
Immediately afterwards.
Surrounded by beams of light descending from the sky, Ginny found that her body, which should have been falling rapidly, began to slowly rise into the air until it disappeared into the Garganta.
Sizzle
After swallowing Ginny and her daughter, the Garganta, resembling the mouth of a giant beast, suddenly closed, as if it had never existed.
at the same time.
On the deck of a warship a hundred kilometers away from the Red Earth Continent, Rosen opened his palm, and a golden beam of light shot into the sky and disappeared into the Garganta that tore the sky apart.
A moment later.
Enveloped in a golden beam of light, a figure flew out from the Garganta above the warship, then slowly descended from the sky along the golden beam of light, finally landing steadily on the deck of the warship.
As Rosen, lying on the beach chair, retracted the Reiatsu Barrier and dissipated the Garganta, Ginny still wore a look of astonishment.
Obviously.
She hadn't yet recovered from the sudden turn of events.
Ginny stood there stunned on the deck for a good ten seconds before snapping out of her shock and naturally looking at Rosen.
"You, you are."
"Shinigami Admiral".
"Mr. Rosen."
Ginny recognized Rosen's identity.
Although she had been in Mary Geoise for years and had lost her freedom, it did not mean that she was completely unaware of the outside world.
You need to know.
The Celestial Dragons hadn't forbidden her from reading newspapers, and given her expertise in thievery, eavesdropping, and communications, she was well aware of the changing situation at sea.
"Thank you."
"They saved me."
"And Bonney."
Whether it was Rosen's past deeds or the fact that he saved her and Bonney from danger, Ginny felt both grateful and respectful towards Rosen.
He harbored absolutely no hostility or resentment towards Rosen because of his former status as the commander of the Revolutionary Army's Eastern Army.
Realizing what was happening, she immediately hugged Bonney and knelt on the deck.
But as soon as her knees touched the ground, Ginny felt an irresistible force that pushed her off the deck.
"Let's check on the child first!"
Rosen released his Armament Haki and pushed Ginny, who was kneeling in front of him, up from a distance.
"Bonney?"
Ginny quickly looked down at Bonney and realized that although she had carefully enveloped Bonney with Armament Haki, due to the limitations of her Haki technique and intensity, and the fact that Bonney was a newborn baby, she was still unable to effectively protect her.
Falling from a height of 10,000 meters, it was clearly affected.
She didn't cry because she had already fainted.
"Bonney!"
Upon seeing this, Ginny's face immediately turned deathly pale. All the relief and joy of surviving the ordeal vanished in that instant.
"Don't be nervous."
"She's fine."
Rosen got up from his chair, walked over to Ginny, took Bonney from her hand, and carefully put her into the mouth of the fleshy creature.
Normally, if Ginny saw someone putting her daughter into the mouth of what looked like a stingray and chewing it, she would have fought them to the death.
But now, out of trust in Rosen, she suppressed her anxiety and worry, remaining silent and watching quietly throughout.
A moment later.
Minazuki opened its mouth, exposing Bonney, whose body was covered in a little sticky fluid, to the air.
Ginny looked around and saw that Bonney, whose face had been covered in bruises, had regained her usual rosy complexion and had also woken up from her coma.
"Ouch!"
Bonney opened her eyes and saw Rosen. She wasn't afraid at all. Instead, she seemed to know that he had saved her and reached out to Rosen for a hug.
"Good girl."
Rosen paid no attention to the slime on Bonney's body. He reached out and lifted her out of the fleshy mouth, then took the towel handed to him by the Marine officer next to him, wiped the slime off Bonney's body, wrapped her in a brand-new Marine uniform, and returned her to Ginny.
"Thank you."
"Mr. Rosen."
As Ginny took Bonney from her, she repeatedly expressed her gratitude to Rosen.
"Need not."
"I just happened to be there."
Rosen waved his hand.
"Are you... are you Ginny?"
Just as Gion was about to ask Ginny what was going on, Gild Tesoro suddenly spoke up.
"I never expected that the famous Golden Emperor would still remember me!"
Ginny looked surprised when Gild Tesoro called her by her name immediately.
She is now, in name only, the wife of a Celestial Dragon, but in reality, she is nothing more than a slave.
on the contrary.
Gild Tesoro, who was once a slave, is now the famous Golden Emperor of the Grand Line and the God of Wealth of the Marine Headquarters.
A humiliating past should be buried deep in one's heart and never mentioned to others, but Gild Tesoro did not; instead, he took the initiative to ask her about it.
"What Golden Emperor?"
"Others may not know, but don't you know?"
"If you hadn't secretly brought me some medicine without telling the Celestial Dragons, I might have been tortured to death by them just like Stella."
Gild Tesoro was initially quite pleased to see his old friend, but the smile vanished when Stella was mentioned.
Please accept my condolences.
"I believe that Stella, in heaven, would be proud of your achievements."
"You're one of the world's ten richest people!"
When Ginny saw that Gild Tesoro was in low spirits, she knew about his story with Stella and quickly comforted him.
"Even if I were the richest man in the world now, with mountains of gold and silver, I still couldn't buy Stella's life back."
Gild Tesoro shook his head self-deprecatingly, but thinking of what was to come and the long-awaited reunion with old friends, he rallied his spirits and changed the subject:
"I'm not going to talk about my business anymore."
"What's going on with you?"
"And this child."
Gild Tesoro spoke with great caution.
He himself was left with many wounds by the Celestial Dragons, which have yet to heal, and the same is true for Ginny in front of him.
Forced to separate from his beloved Bartholomew Kuma, he was forcibly taken by a Celestial Dragon.
Therefore, when it came to Bonney, he spoke hesitantly and vaguely.
I just don't want to talk about the Celestial Dragons.
Bonney is my child.
"Then."
"The Celestial Dragons threw Bonney and me off the Red Line."
Ginny first emphasized that Bonney was her daughter, not the daughter of a Celestial Dragon, before recounting her own ordeal.
"What?"
Gild Tesoro's expression changed drastically upon hearing this.
How could that be?
Gion also showed a moved expression.
Although Ginny spoke vaguely, she was a clever person. Seeing that Ginny knew Gild Tesoro and was then rescued by Rosen, she had already vaguely guessed the other party's identity.
They even had some vague guesses about Bonney's background.
That's precisely why she turned pale with horror when she heard Ginny say that the Celestial Dragons had thrown her and Bonney from the Red Line into the ocean thousands of meters below.
"Charlos".
"That scumbag!"
When Gild Tesoro learned that the Celestial Dragons had thrown Ginny and Bonney from Mary Geoise onto the Grand Line, his face instantly turned murderous and furious, and he growled through gritted teeth.
"It's him again!"
Upon hearing the name Charlos, Gion understood immediately.
No wonder Gild Tesoro and Ginny knew each other; it turns out that they were both once slaves of Saint Charlos and suffered humiliation and torture at the hands of this Celestial Dragon.
"Admiral Rosen."
Can I talk to Ginny?
Seeing his former benefactor being tortured to this extent by his former enemy, and even nearly being thrown to his death along with his daughter on the Grand Line, Gild Tesoro couldn't help but turn to Rosen, hoping to obtain his permission.
"Speak!"
Rosen nodded upon hearing this.
Ginny.
"Charlos will pay the price for what he has done."
"Definitely."
After receiving permission, Gild Tesoro did not reveal the full purpose of Rosen's trip, but he did point out that the Holy Church of Charlos would meet a tragic end.
"Yeah?"
Upon hearing this, Ginny was startled and instinctively looked at Rosen.
He was able to escape the Battle of God Valley at a young age, and even become one of the ultimate beneficiaries of the battle, along with Bartholomew Kuma and Emporio Ivankov.
Her mental capacity is certainly not comparable to that of ordinary people.
Even though Gild Tesoro only mentioned it briefly and didn't explain everything, she could roughly guess the purpose of Rosen's trip.
after all.
The only man in the world, no, the Marine Headquarters, could make a Celestial Dragon like Saint Charlos pay the price.
"Mr. Rosen."
"You saved me, you saved Bonney, and you told me about Charlos's fate."
"I should also be honest with you."
Ginny looked at Rosen, and after hesitating several times, she decided to tell him the truth:
"Actually, I used to be the commander of the Eastern Army of the Revolutionary Army."
If it were any other Marine person, even if they were her savior, Ginny would choose to keep it a secret for Bonney's safety. But with Rosen, she chose to be honest with him.
Because the man in front of her was completely different from all the Marine personnel she knew.
Even if he were imprisoned or executed because of his status as a revolutionary, he would not hold a grudge against Bonney.
"I understand, and then what?"
Rosen's expression remained unchanged upon hearing this.
It seems that whether Ginny is a revolutionary or an ordinary person makes no difference to him.
"Then?"
Although Ginny had some suspicions, she was still taken aback when she saw Rosen's reaction after learning her identity.
"What you should be thinking about now is not how I will react after I find out you are a member of the Revolutionary Army, but your future with Bonney."
Rosen shook his head.
The Revolutionary Army and the Marine are simply different in their stance and allegiances, unlike the pirates who swarm like locusts, burning, killing, and looting without engaging in any productive activities.
Of course.
If Ginny were to stand against him and a war broke out between them, he would show no mercy.
However, that's not the case now.
Standing before him was only a pitiful mother suffering greatly at the hands of the Celestial Dragons.
"The future?"
"I have no future left."
"As for Bonney."
Ginny glanced at Bonney, who was staring wide-eyed at Rosen and giggling in her arms:
"Mr. Rosen."
"You saved Bonney and me, and you don't mind that I'm a member of the Revolutionary Army. I should trouble you again."
"However, I am afflicted with the Sapphire Scales and have at most a year to live. I do not know if I will die on the way back to the Sorbet Kingdom. So may I ask you for a favor?"
"Help me send Bonney back to the Sorbet Kingdom."
After saying that,
Ginny was about to kneel on the deck, but Rosen grabbed her.
He looked at Ginny in front of him, then at Bonney, who was staring at him with wide, round eyes, and couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
Misfortune always plagues those with a bitter fate, and a hemp rope always breaks at its thinnest point.
This sentence.
It's practically a reflection of Ginny's entire life.
Of course, it is also a reflection of Bartholomew Kuma.
"The world of One Piece is really seriously ill."
Rosen witnessed firsthand the tragic experience of Ginny and her daughter, and was deeply moved.
Perhaps this is the "drawback" of possessing the highest level of Observation Haki.
He can convey his own emotions and consciousness to others, influencing their minds and thoughts and generating strong resonance. Similarly, he can also genuinely feel the emotions and consciousness of others.
Of course, Rosen is not influenced by the emotions and consciousness of others; he can only directly perceive people's hearts and emotions.
Just like being able to directly touch whether the water is cold or hot.
That's why.
He could increasingly sense the extent to which the Celestial Dragons had wreaked havoc on this world.
"Admiral Rosen."
"Although Ginny is a member of the Revolutionary Army, Bonney is not."
"Can I send Bonney back to the Sorbet Kingdom?"
"Or, should I adopt Bonney?"
Seeing that Rosen remained silent, Gild Tesoro, remembering the kindness Ginny had shown him years ago, finally spoke up.
However, he still chose to respect Rosen's opinion.
Even when he suggested sending Bonney back to the Sorbet Kingdom or adopting her, he still chose to consult Rosen first and did not make decisions on his own.
"I have no objection to your escorting Ginny back to the Sorbet Kingdom."
"But adoption isn't necessary!"
"They have a mother and a father, and they've finally got this chance to be reunited as a family. What are you doing here, an outsider, trying to get in on their fun?"
Rosen glanced at Gild Tesoro, who was vying with Bartholomew Kuma for Bonney's father.
"Father?"
"reunion?"
Gion and Gild Tesoro were stunned when they heard this, but Ginny seemed to understand what Rosen meant by "father." Her face showed excitement and anticipation, but more than that, she felt helpless and pained.
Yes.
She believed that reuniting with Bartholomew Kuma would be a reunion, and she was absolutely certain that he would not look down on her because of her past experiences, nor would he look down on Bonney. On the contrary, he would only love and care for her and her daughter.
But the problem is...
Sapphire scales.
This is a mountain that stands between her and Bartholomew Kuma, a mountain that can never be moved.
Clang
Sudden.
A flash of light caught Ginny's eye.
Pfft
Before she could react, Rosen had already swung his Zanpakutō and struck her.
