Pirates on Rocks' Ship 996

“That’s right, I am indeed a user of the Time-Space Fruit. I am 26 years old this year and was born... 800 years ago!” Tian Shiyue stood up and answered slowly.

"Eight...eight hundred years ago? They're even older than that person?" Olga exclaimed in surprise upon hearing Tian Shiyue's words.

Even the white-bearded man standing to the side couldn't help but glance at Tian Shiyue, because she didn't look like an eight-hundred-year-old at all.

"Please don't misunderstand, everyone! I'm not eight hundred years old! The Time-Space Fruit gave me the ability to travel through time, but I can only go to the future, not back to the past! So I've been using my ability to move forward into the future, and the actual time I've lived is only 26 years!" Tian Shiyue quickly explained.

After hearing her explanation, everyone was relieved. If one could travel through time and space at will, that would be simply too incredible.

"So what? What exactly did you see in me?" Oden was getting impatient at this point; he had come to believe in Reina's abilities.

"I witnessed the ruin of Wano Country!" Reina didn't keep anyone in suspense and said directly, "The culprits behind the ruin of Wano Country are a dragon and a giant snake with eight heads!"

"What? A dragon and an eight-headed serpent? Did they destroy Wano Country?" Oden stood up abruptly and asked.

Although he had always wanted to leave Wano Country, it was only because he wanted to see the world. It wasn't that he had lost feelings for Wano Country, so he became somewhat agitated when he heard about its ruin.

"Is it because of my departure?" Oden asked again.

Clearly, he had received some information from Whitebeard and knew that something big would happen in Wano Country after he left.

Reina shook his head and said, "I don't know the specifics, but I'm sure they're not monsters. They're probably Zoan-type Devil Fruit users, like Marco, who is a Mythical Zoan-type Phoenix. Those two should be in the same situation!"

"Phew~ So, after I leave, there will be two guys who will destroy Wano Country, right?" Oden asked Reina.

Reina nodded and said, "I don't know when it started, but I can see your ending!"

"My fate?"

"That's right, your tragic end!"

The two spoke quickly, and everyone in the room was so surprised they couldn't close their mouths.

"So I also died tragically at the hands of those two?" Oden suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "In that case, whether I go back or not won't make much difference! Otherwise, it would really be a headache!"

"Lord Oden!" Izou, Nekomamushi, and Inuarashi were somewhat anxious, unable to calmly face Oden's tragic death.

"Lord Reina, please tell me how to avoid Lord Oden's final fate!" Izo knelt directly in front of Reina and pleaded.

“I don’t know how to change things. My vision is very limited, and until I can piece together the whole story, I have no idea whether I should tell him or not!” Reina shook his head with a bitter smile and said, “It’s very possible that my method will ultimately lead to his tragic death, because…”

“Because the ending you see is very likely the ending that will happen after you tell Lord Oden, right?” Izou also realized and said.

Reina nodded and said nothing more.

He didn't say that he could change Oden's future, nor did he say that he knew everything about the future. It wasn't that he didn't trust everyone, but rather that he wasn't sure if the future would remain unchanged after his intervention.

"Alright, everyone, with Reina's warning, we should be fine as long as we're careful on our way back!" Oden said with a smile.

“That’s right, we’ll go back with you then. With us here, there’s nothing to worry about with just two ability users!” Marco patted Nekomamushi and Inuarashi to reassure them.

"Besides your tragic death, I also witnessed the destruction of our Whitebeard Pirates!" But at that moment, Reina made a shocking statement.

"What?" Everyone, including Oden and Whitebeard, looked at Reina in shock.

Chapter 112 Oden's Choice

"What?" Reina's words shocked everyone.

The destruction of the Whitebeard Pirates?

"Is it because of me?" Oden asked after a moment of silence.

He finally understood why Reina disliked him. If he had known, he probably would have done the same!

“No, I didn’t see you when the pirate crew was destroyed, but I saw this fragment of the future through you, which proves that you should have some connection with it!” Reina shook his head and said.

"Everyone! Let me disembark on the next island!" Oden suddenly said.

"Gurararara... What nonsense are you spouting? If our Whitebeard Pirates are going to be destroyed, then whether you, Oden, are there or not, it will all be the same. In that case, wouldn't it be better for us to cherish the present moment even more?" Whitebeard laughed and said loudly.

“That’s right! I didn’t see myself when our Whitebeard Pirates were destroyed! And my brother was already quite old at the time, I estimate it was at least 30 years later!” Reina smiled slightly and added, “Besides… the fragments I saw aren’t unchangeable!”

"What? Thirty years from now? That's such a long time ago, who knows? Reina, you're just trying to scare people!"

"Exactly...it made me think we were all going to be wiped out tomorrow!"

"So it can be changed, huh? Really... Thirty years from now, we'll all be powerful, right? Who would dare to cause us trouble?"

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, because what Reina had just said was truly terrifying.

“Oden…believe me, going back now is the best choice for you! With your strength, you can completely eliminate the opponent before they grow stronger!” Reina turned his head to look at Oden and said.

“Yes, Lord Oden, let’s follow Lord Reina’s arrangements and return to Wano Country!” Izo nodded and said.

"So what? Just like you said, if this is destined, then my going back might backfire. If fate really wants me to die a miserable death, I don't mind! Besides... who knows what will happen in the end!" Oden exuded strong confidence.

"I'm just telling you what I've seen; the choice is yours! Also, although it's a bit late... but... welcome to the team! Second brother!" Reina smiled slightly, extended his hand to Oden, and said.

"Hahaha... What a happy day! Bai Xiaoji, Reina! Let's have a banquet! I want to eat oden!" Oden laughed heartily, completely destroying the tense atmosphere that had been in the room just moments before.

So, in the following days, the Whitebeard Pirates returned to normal, and no one mentioned what Reina had said that day. However, each of them kept some secrets that only they knew.

"Enemy ship sighted ahead!" the lookout shouted from the mast.

"I'll do it!" Oden jumped off the bow of the ship and cleaved the enemy pirate ship in two with a single stroke.

"Damn Oden... We haven't even gotten their treasure yet! You've split the ship in two, what are we supposed to steal?" Reina looked at the reckless Oden, wishing he could kick him off the deck.

The days of sailing on the high seas were very interesting for Oden, as he saw something different every day.

But whether out of a desire to show off or some other motive, he would rush to do everything, but often made things worse because of his recklessness and lack of skill.

Marco even occasionally thought that Oden's existence might actually lead the Whitebeard Pirates to destruction.

However, as time went by, Oden gradually integrated with everyone and became a true pirate.

Following Reyna's suggestion, Oden became the captain of the second division. Although Oden was somewhat unwilling, he had no choice but to agree under pressure from Reyna, Whitebeard, Marco, and others.

"Tsk tsk tsk... I didn't expect Wano Country to be so small. This world is really big! There are also four other seas. I really want to go and see them! By the way, Toki! Where is your hometown?" Oden stood in the map room, looking at the map made by Reina and Kaihang, and sighed.

"I don't know, but my parents are from Wano Country, so I have nowhere else to go but Wano Country!"

"Ah~ then you're really unlucky, this ship won't be going to Wano Country for the time being!" Oden said with a regretful expression.

"It's okay, being with you makes me feel like I've reached my destination!" Tian Shiyue said with a smile.

Hidden around the corner, out of their sight, Reina and the others were eavesdropping on the two men's conversation.

"Really... how dare they openly flaunt their love on the ship! Who do they think they are?" Reina pouted and said with dissatisfaction.

"Hey... it seems you're the only one here who has no right to say such things!" Marco and the others immediately said with dissatisfaction.

"Huh? Hahaha... Really? I forgot! Hahaha..." Reina was taken aback, then burst into laughter.

“Brubrub... Brubrub..." At that moment, the Den Den Mushi on Reina's body rang.

"Hello, it's me!" Reina said lazily after answering the phone.

"First mate, island spotted ahead!" The Den Den Mushi was the monitoring personnel on the Sky Island, who called Reina after spotting the island.

"I understand!" Reina said and hung up the phone immediately, then told the navigator and helmsman that an island had been spotted ahead.

Oden and the others already knew about the existence of the Sky Island. When they first found out, Oden ran around the Sky Island several times, bombarding Dr. Asie with questions, such as why the island could fly and a whole host of other nonsense.

Even after the doctor explained it to him for a long time, he still didn't understand. In the end, he was attracted by the precious ingredients on the sky island. If it weren't for Reina's intervention, the sky island's breeding plan would have really been a complete failure.

Even so, Reina knew that from then on, there was one more person on the ship who was always eyeing these ingredients.

"Captain...don't run away! Wait for us!"

"Oden...you bastard, scout ahead before you go in!"

Upon arriving at the island, Oden immediately rushed ashore and stormed in.

"Look! Something's flying in the sky! I'll go catch it!" Oden shouted as he ran towards the depths of the island, leaving his teammates far behind.

“That bastard… I’ll sink him to the bottom of the sea sooner or later! And… your captain ran away, so the work he didn’t finish is yours to do!” Reina said to the members of the second combat squad, his face full of anger.

"Yes... First mate!" The members of the second combat squad could only reply with long faces.

They didn't have Oden's guts to offend Reina.

Evening, on the shore of the small island.

"Hahaha... How's Reina? How's the food this time? Can it be raised on the Sky Island?" Oden asked, holding a large white bird in his hand, laughing loudly.

"Damn it... This is a bird released from the news! Let it go right now! Do you want us to never see the news again?" Reina yelled at Oden, who was clinging to the news bird.

"What news bird? Can't we eat it?" Oden looked utterly dejected, as if he had caught something inedible and was extremely disappointed.

"Sigh... Oh well, let's just eat it! We've already offended it, and letting it go might only cause more trouble, so we might as well just eat it!" Reina said suddenly after thinking for a moment.

The newsbird, which had initially thought everything was alright, immediately began to struggle upon hearing this, seemingly terrified.

The other members were speechless; it was you who said you couldn't eat it.

After leaving the small island, they encountered the navy again. The sky island had spotted them early on, so Reina immediately ordered the helmsman to turn around and avoid the navy.

This puzzled Oden greatly. Why avoid the other party? Wouldn't it have been better to just steal from them?

"Idiot, do you even know what kind of entity the Navy is? You can't fight them all!" Reina shook his head and explained the Navy and the World Government to Oden.

"There's actually an organization that can unite the world, what an amazing bunch!" Oden exclaimed.

“You can make your own judgment as you sail! Your Wano Country is still free!” Whitebeard chimed in from the side.

Gradually, Oden began to get used to sailing, and his feelings for Tenshiki also quickly warmed up.

“Brother… Oden has adapted to life on the ship, so… I want to go to Ohara! Not seeing Olvia always makes me feel uneasy!” That day, Reyner found Whitebeard and asked to leave temporarily.

"Go ahead, and remember to let us know if you need anything. We're family, so don't worry about it!" the white-bearded man nodded and said.

"Don't worry, brother, I won't hold back!" Reina said with a smile.

When Reina announced that he would be leaving for a while, no one else reacted, except for Oden and the others who were very surprised.

"Go to the West Sea? Ohara? What kind of place is that?" Oden asked, puzzled.

“It’s a place world-renowned for its historians! My wife lives there, so I go there every now and then!” Reina explained with a smile.

"Huh? Why don't you bring your wife over?" Oden asked, puzzled.

“Lord Oden, we are pirates. How could ordinary people endure long voyages? We’ve been out at sea for a while now, shouldn’t we go back to Wano Country? And Lady Toki can go back to live there too!” Izo said, standing beside Oden.

“But… I haven’t found the answer yet, Izo!” Oden shook his head and said.
