One Piece: Divine Bird Phoenix

East China Sea

On the waterway to Windmill Village, a huge dog-headed warship was chopping the waves on the sea.

The densely packed artillery on both sides of the ship symbolizes its power, and the snow-white sails depict the naval flag of justice.

"Lieutenant General Garp, is it really okay for us to leave the G3 branch directly like this?"

said a man wearing a suit hat and a navy justice trench coat.

The person speaking had gray hair, a resolute face, and a tall build.

A pair of big hands were holding a bag of donuts and eating them.

The naval cape symbolizing justice behind him rustled fiercely in the sea breeze.

"Bogart, it's okay. Didn't I ask for leave from Warring States?"

"But didn't Marshal Warring States agree?" Bogart was speechless.

"Really? Hahaha, it doesn't matter. Sengoku will definitely not be angry."

Bulu Bulu… Bulu Bulu…

The phone bug's voice rang.

Bogart looked at Garp.

The two were silent for a moment.

Garp stood far away and reached out to answer the phone bug.

The phone bug took on the appearance of the Warring States Period.

"Garp!"

Sengoku's roar came from the phone bug.

"You asked for leave without permission again, get out of here and go back to the new world."

"Hahaha, don't be angry, Warring States. I will go back after I go home to see my grandson."

"Luffy must be missing me a lot right now."

"Come on, you have to spend ten days and a half every time you go home. You can't bring your grandson to the Navy Headquarters."

"Next time, definitely next time."

Garp said guiltily.

"I will let Sakaski and Kuzan take your place in the new world first. Come back quickly."

Sengoku's angry voice came from the phone bug.

"I know, I know."

Before Sengoku could finish speaking, Garp forcibly hung up the phone.

After hanging up the phone...

"The Warring States Period was so brutal. I just went home to see my grandson," Garp said with dissatisfaction, picking his nose.

Naval Headquarters, Marineland

Marshal's office, ah, ah, ah.

"Damn Garp is talking bad about me behind my back again."

After hearing what Garp said, Bogart felt ashamed.

I thought to myself: "You are absent from work five or six times a year, for more than 20 days at a time. No one can bear this."

At this moment, a voice came. interrupted Bogart's thinking.

"Sir, a small sea king was found at the stern of our warship."

"Major, there are countless Neptunes in the sea. What's there to report?" Bogart said dissatisfied.

"Yes, sir."

"The main reason is that this small sea king has been following us for a long time."

The person who made the report spoke with slight hesitation.

“We also tried to drive it away, but it still refused to leave.

"And it kept spinning in circles, as if it was asking for help from us."

"Help?"

Then...

At this moment, Garp stopped the donut in his hand and said, "Okay, Bogart, let's go to the back to see such an interesting thing."

"Okay, Lieutenant General Garp."

After a while,

warship tail

Noisy footsteps sounded.

"Lieutenant General Garp, that Neptune-like creature is right here."

Following the colonel's voice, he saw a small, slender sea king-like creature spinning at the rear of the warship.

Seeing someone coming, the Sea King species stopped spinning and whimpered at the crowd.

After a few sounds, the sea kings swam away into the distance.

"Lieutenant General Garp, this is..."

Before Bogart finished speaking, he was interrupted by Garp.

Hahaha!

"Bogart, you lead the warship to Windmill Village as originally planned."

"I'm going to see where this fish takes me."

After saying that, Garp used Moon Step and chased the Neptune type just now.

"Lieutenant General Garp..."

Before Bogart finished speaking, Garp disappeared into the distance.

Bogart was left standing alone.

…

On the sea.

Garp uses Moon Step to follow the Neptune class.

The reason why Garp followed the Neptunes was other than curiosity.

It was more that there was a voice in my head at that time, vaguely telling myself to follow it.

One day later.

A deserted island with a little greenery appeared in Garp's field of vision.

"The destination should be ahead."

After reciting, Karp turns on the color of seeing and hearing.

A powerful sight swept across the island, but Garp didn't find anyone.

"Is it something wrong?"

Turn on the information color again to view the island.

Hey, this time Garp discovered a comatose figure on the beach of the island.

"Why didn't you notice it just now?" Garp was full of doubts.

Bang bang bang...

Stepping on the moon steps, Garp swept towards the beach of the island.

On the beach of the small island, An, who had experienced physical strengthening, was covered in dirt and passed out on the beach.

Bang bang bang...

The sound of moon steps sounded from far away.

As if I heard someone coming, the originally calm sea suddenly surged.

Wow... Wow...

The waves rushed to the beach one after another, washing over An's body.

Over and over again, a white figure appeared on the beach.

Boom!

Landing on the beach, Garp looked down at the girl washed by the sea.

"That sea king kind brought me here just to save her?"

While thinking, Garp bowed and picked An up.

When Garp saw An's face, his hand shook and he almost dropped An to the ground.

I quickly hugged An in my arms and looked at An's face again, feeling dazed for a moment.

Memories kept turning back

Undersea Prison Impel Down

"Garp, my son is in your hands. He is innocent. Let him live in peace."

A steady voice came from the cell.

In the dim prison, two people sat opposite each other in front of a cell.

10 years ago

South China Sea

Baterila Island

A mother with freckles on her face and long golden wavy hair.

She was sitting on the bed, looking at the baby in her arms with a kind face and said, "Mr. Garp, I'll leave Ace to you."

10 years later

Desolate Island

Garp stared at An in his arms.

Blue eyes!

Freckles on the face!

Long golden hair!

Everything is so similar to Lu Jiu.

Garp murmured, "It's really like Lu Jiu!"

Let me take you back first!

After that, he used the Moon Step again to chase the warship.

One day later, on the dog-head warship, Garp fell from the sky.

Bogart walked up.

"Vice Admiral Garp, you are finally back. Please don't act alone next time."

Hahaha,

"Got it, got it."

Garp waved his hand.

"Vice Admiral Garp, the girl in your arms is..."

"This is the girl I found after following that sea king."

"Let the ship's doctor check her out."

"Okay, Vice Admiral Garp."

Bogart was not curious about Ann's origins. There were countless strange things on the sea.

He turned around and made arrangements.

...

It was not until the top war many years later.

Garp knew what kind of waves Ann, who was rescued from the deserted island, would set off in the future.

"This is a day that changes the world."
