The father and son's paths overlapped and were being passed on.

"A miracle...?"

"It really is a miracle..."

......

"Hey! Hey! Hey!"

"Seriously? This reckless behavior might trigger a butterfly effect!"

"Your son Zheng Hao told you that he traveled from another time, and even showed you 'ship skills' that wouldn't exist in that era. What about you, old Zheng? Have you noticed any changes in your memories?"

Inside the main hall of the Zheng family residence, Zhou Yuanshan spoke casually.

Zheng Yunlong looked at him like he was an idiot and snorted coldly: "Have you forgotten? The scene in the [Black Hole Vortex Race] is forever frozen in that moment!"

"That's a separate, interactive photo booth, a space that's frozen in time!"

"What Zheng Hao is doing there is none of our business."

"oh--"

"Oh right—"

"What was Zheng Hao doing there?"

"I just want to see who's more awesome?"

"......"

When Zhou Yuanshan asked a question, Zheng Yunlong fell silent.

His eyes were glued to the live stream screen, not daring to look away for even a moment. Behind him, Yunzhi's expression was equally tense, and she instinctively grabbed Zheng Yunlong's shoulder...

It's here!

All the changes of that year are about to happen again!!!

......

You mean...?

"Are you my son? Did you travel through time to find me?"

"Hiss—you know what, you really do look a lot like me..."

Within the burning ship, a face resembling Zheng Hao emerged from the flames. At the same time, a vibrant young Yunzhi also appeared, blinking her large, bright eyes as she looked at Zheng Hao in disbelief.

"you?"

"Are you my son?"

"you..."

"Can you call me Mom?"

"mom--"

Zheng Hao shouted decisively, revealing a smile on his face.

Although he wasn't Yunzhi's biological son, Yunzhi had long been his mother, transcending the barriers of blood ties. At this moment, Zheng Hao was willing to deceive her, to make her believe that she could have children in the future.

"Hey—"

"My son—"

"My son is so amazing! He'll be piloting the [Shattered Star] in the future!"

On the fireboat, Yunzhi could be heard shouting excitedly.

The heartwarming scene lasted only a moment...

Behind, unnoticed, the [Mural Boat Girl - Fairy Tale Ship], which had been floating in mid-air, slowly folded its paper and transformed back into a ship, landing on the sea.

Inside the cabin, Geller Neal gazed intently into the distance.

"Okay, okay, okay—"

"In that case..."

"Then everything is clear!"

"【Man and ship as one】? 【Ship skills】? 【SSS-rank ship girl】?"

"Let all bow down before the great achievements of the Geller family!"

"Pfft—"

As he spoke, the murky vial of serum was suddenly pulled from his robes, and Neil plunged it into the helm where the book was being turned!
