The breeze caused by Ina's movements brushed Luffy's face, causing him to look sideways at the black-robed figure standing beside him, but he didn't care. But his eyes subconsciously swept upward along the black robe, which covered Ina's whole body, no different from the dinner, but her appearance was no longer covered by the hood. Luffy's curious eyes swept over Ina's little head. His body froze instantly, his eyes were dull, his eyeballs protruded outward, and tears seemed to be brewing in them. His mouth opened unconsciously and shouted two words that shocked everyone present! "Ina...!!"

Time in the corridor seemed to stand still. Everyone turned around slowly. Even Ace, who was crying in Dadan's arms, raised his tearful eyes and looked at Luffy who was struggling in Garp's hands...

Luffy's expression made everyone stunned. They subconsciously looked at where his eyes were. Suddenly, time seemed to stand still again. The next moment, exclamations echoed in the corridor one after another!

"Ah...!! (Two sounds, very long tone!)"·

Everyone's eyes fell on Ina, flowing on the black robe she was wearing, and they also understood in their hearts...

No wonder Garp brought the black robe kid back, no wonder Garp could hold the black robe kid in his arms, no wonder the black robe kid could chat so happily with Makino when they met for the first time, no wonder the black robe kid could snatch Ina's favorite food from Luffy...

Everything was replayed in everyone's mind again, making them suddenly realize...

With tears in his eyes, Dadan ignored the dignity of the head of the family, strode past the bandits, rushed to him and hugged him...

Ina's words when she left seemed to still echo in his ears, Dadan sobbed and looked down at Ina...

Ina was stunned for a moment, and the next moment she was in his arms. After noticing Dadan's movements, she raised her head and looked at him, and then smiled brightly at him... Time seemed to be a broken clock, and after a year of stagnation, it just started to flow at this moment!

Dadan lowered his eyes and stared at his smile. He couldn't help crying. Not only Dadan, but also many bandits, had tears in their eyes...

Luffy's eyes were filled with tears. He kept struggling in Garp's palm, trying to get out of his palm...

Garp's face did not change, as if he didn't care much, but the joy in his eyes still exposed his true emotions... Then he bent down and gently put Luffy on the ground...

Luffy disappeared as soon as he landed. He looked up at Ina, whose thin arms Extending over his body, he embraced both of them...

Tears burst out of his eyes, his cry was loud and resounding in the corridor, and he kept muttering something, "Ina! Ina! Ina!!..."

Ina's eyes were moist, with a smile on her lips, and her little hand soothingly touched Luffy's little head, rubbing it gently...

But the moment she touched him, Ina's body stiffened, and the warmth in her heart disappeared. The smile on her lips became awkward, and her words were word by word. The words popped out from between his teeth, "Luffy! How long have you not washed your hair!!"

Luffy seemed to be oblivious, his tears and the snot that came with them all rubbed against the white lining of Ina's black robe...

Ina looked distressed, her eyes filled with helplessness... She could only close her eyes and pat Luffy's back with her hands...

The bandits retreated at Dogula's signal, leaving the venue to the people in front of them...

Ace stopped crying at some point, lowering his eyes, making people look His expression was unclear, his fists were clenched tightly, and the scene he had just experienced reappeared in his mind. His face turned pale at a speed visible to the naked eye, and his body trembled...

At the same time, he also understood that the red figure just now was probably Ina. Thinking of this, Ace frowned slightly, and his clenched fists slowly loosened. For some reason, he did not feel any anger in his heart, but instead felt a little joy...

Garp's mouth corners slightly raised, and his voice was calm, interrupting the emotional fluctuations of the four people.

"Okay, go back to the room and sleep. You don't need to rest, but Ina still needs to rest!"

After a while, Ina sat down by the window with her eyes closed, staring at the night view outside the window, taking a deep breath, as if time had never passed...

Of course, let's ignore the large pendant on Ina's body - Luffy...

At this time, Luffy still had tears in his eyes, and his arms were tightly around Ina, fearing that Ina would disappear when he let go...

Silence filled the room...

Ina glanced at Ace beside her and said, "Okay, ask whatever you want to ask!"

Before she could finish her words, Ace

He stood up and walked to Ina, and under Ina's surprised eyes, he took her and the pendant Luffy into his arms...

Ace recalled the grief when Sabo left, recalled his forced smile in front of Luffy, and recalled that every time he was in danger, Ina would appear...

Gritting his teeth, tears spread from his eyes, and his slightly heaving shoulders were enough to show Ace's emotions at this time...

Ina's body was stiff, feeling the violent heartbeat in front of her, her face was tangled... Then she sighed, raised her arm slightly, and patted Ace on the back...

"I'm sorry..."

The voice was very light, but it still reached Ace's ears. He shook his head slightly, didn't say much, but just tightened his arms a little...

At the door at this time

A figure clenched his fists, veins on his forehead bulged, and his eyes stared through the crack of the door, staring at Ace's back and his back I patted my hands on the door, wishing I could rush in and punch Ace right now...

After an unknown amount of time, the door was closed. Ace's face turned slightly red, his eyes dodged, and he slowly loosened his arms. Then he turned his head to look out the window, and he stammered, "Where have you been this year?"

Ina frowned slightly, put the already asleep Luffy on the blanket, and walked to the window, looking up at the bright moon in the sky, and then she said, "I went to the navy with the old man..."

She glanced at Ace and said again: "Tell me about your changes in this year. And, where is Sabo?"

Ina frowned, as if she really didn't know. At this point, Ace clenched his fist again...

...

After listening to it, his eyes alternated between light and dark. Although he knew that Sabo was not dead, it was still hard to accept this result from someone else. After all, Sabo was a living person to Ina! Ina lowered her eyes, wondering what she was thinking...

After a moment, she made a decision, the darkness in her eyes gathered, and a sinister smile appeared at the corner of her mouth. Ace shuddered, but she didn't know... who would be the next person to suffer!

Looking back, Ace's eyes swept across the box and stared at it for a moment...

Ina was very careful to notice her eyes, and looked up at Ace's expression, "What? Do you want to know what's inside?"

Ace nodded subconsciously, and after reacting, he shook his head hurriedly, "No... I don't want to know..."

"Then why did you keep staring at the wooden box...?"

"No reason, I was thinking... thinking about why you suddenly disappeared at that time..."

"Oh? Okay... forget it, I wanted to open it and show you..."

Ace stared at Ina with wide eyes, his eyes filled with disbelief...
