[Cinema system 999, activated!]
[Target IP: One Piece.]
Today is the first day that the cinema system 999 goes out on a mission alone, and it is a very famous anime IP.
Honestly, 999 was a bit nervous. The database told it that this universe was filled with powerful beings, and the bonds between them were incredibly high. If it wasn't careful, it could...
Bah, bah, bah. It didn't dare to think further and could only pray silently that everything would go well today.
[Countdown: 3, 2, 1——]
Wow! Stop talking, they're coming!
Boom!!!
The Straw Hat Pirates, the Red Hair Pirates’ officers, and the Whitebeard Pirates’ captains, more than 30 people, fell into the 999 cinema at the same time.
"Huh? What is this place?"
What appeared in front of everyone was a large screen and rows of seats.
"It hurts, it hurts, you're pressing on me..."
They looked at each other with surprise at the person who suddenly appeared in front of them.
"Huh? Why are you here?"
Many people instinctively wanted to touch their weapons, but at the same time found that their weapons had disappeared out of thin air.
"Oops! My gun is gone!"
"My knife is missing too!"
What on earth is going on? Everyone's face turned serious.
No, there is another person who is careless and has no sense of crisis.
Luffy's first sight locked onto the red-haired man standing right in front of him.
"Shanks!?" Luffy jumped over and threw himself on Shanks, laughing loudly, "Long time no see!"
"Isn't this Luffy?" Shanks hugged Luffy and laughed, "Why are you here?"
"I don't know either," Luffy grinned, then turned his head to look around, "Huh? This place is so strange."
Nami, Chopper, and Usopp nervously hugged Merry beside them and couldn't help but yelled at Luffy: "You finally realized something was wrong!!!"
"Calm down, calm down," Merry waved several tentacles and hugged the three shivering people. The scene was hilarious.
Luffy, however, remained unperturbed. He looked past the yawning Zoro and saw Ace standing just a few meters away. His eyes suddenly lit up, "Ace's here too!?"
The rubber arm stretched out, wrapped around Ace's waist, and the whole person flew towards Ace like a cannonball.
"Hey—Luffy!" Ace was knocked back half a step. He had been seriously surveying his surroundings, but after being pounced on, all his nervousness vanished. "I haven't seen you for two years, why are you acting like a kid?"
"Hehe, I missed you so much!" Luffy buried his head in his brother's chest and rubbed it hard, "Have you recovered?"
"Thanks to Meli," Ace glanced at Meli not far away and ruffled his brother's hair lovingly, "I'm all right now."
Hearing her name, Merry turned around and gave Ace a thumbs up: "From now on, you must cherish your life and take good care of your body."
Ace laughed, a flash of fire in his eyes.
Marco walked over to Merry and held out his fist, "Merry-chan, thank you for helping me save Ace earlier."
Merry bumped fists together: "Ace is my friend too, it's my duty to save him!"
Izo and the other captains gathered around and thanked Merry.
"No matter what happens in the future, Meli can come to us for help."
"We're family, so don't be solitary. If you need anything in the future, just let me know."
"Yes, that's right, we are all family."
Seeing Merry surrounded, the Red Hair Pirates' leaders were relieved, but couldn't help feeling a little jealous.
Wuta squeezed through the crowd and took Meli's arm: "Hey, hey, hey, you people from the White Group, thank you, but don't try to make connections. Meli is our family."
"That's right, Merry grew up on our ship. When it comes to family, it's us, the Red Group, of course!"
"Ace is our second captain, and he carries Merry's heart in his body. Merry is naturally our family too!"
"What's this? Merry is our family!"
......
I saw the people from the red group and the white group arguing over Meli.
Nami's eyes were slightly hot, and she sighed with emotion: "Merry is really popular. Even the Four Emperors are trying to win him over."
Sanji rolled up his sleeves and said sourly, "If you really think about it, Merry was already our ship in her previous life. We were her original wife."
Chopper nodded in agreement: "Sanji is right! We are the original couple! By the way, what does original couple mean?"
"You can only be called the original wife after you get married." Robin covered his mouth and laughed.
"Get married!!!"
......
"Gulala--" Newgate laughed out loud, causing ripples in the surrounding space. "What funny little devils!"
999 in the background was frantically trying to keep the space stable.
Laughter is contagious. We were all feeling strange and nervous at first when we suddenly arrived in such a strange place, but when we saw familiar faces all around us, we soon relaxed and started gathering in groups of three or four to reminisce and chat.
Jesus pushed through the crowd and walked to Usopp, "Silly son, you are already a pirate with a bounty of 30 million, and you are still like this..." He didn't finish his words.
"Dad!" Usopp recognized his father and stood up straight. Although his legs were still shaking, his face was full of confidence. "Shh, actually, what I said just now was a strategy to paralyze the person behind this place."
Jesus didn't reveal the cloth and walked down the stairs: "Oh? Did you succeed in paralyzing it?"
"Of course," Usopp made a V sign with his hand, "Even you, Dad, were fooled, weren't you?"
Chopper's eyes lit up and he hugged Usopp's thighs: "I see, Usopp is so powerful!"
"Hahahaha." Laughter exploded throughout the theater.
......
999 also breathed a sigh of relief. It was good that these strong men did not use their ultimate skills to tear down the wall right away, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.
Pah pah pah, (puts hands together) everything will go well.
Just as the noise of everyone chatting grew louder, the lights in the entire space suddenly dimmed.
A line of words gradually appeared on the big screen in front of him.
【Welcome to 999 Cinema. 】
"Watching the cinema?" Sanji held a cigarette between his lips, his eyebrows twisted into question marks. "What is this?"
【The screening is about to begin, please find your seats. 】
A soft floor light lit up between the seats, guiding everyone to their seats.
"It looks like they want us to see something." Robin looked at the big screen carefully.
【After taking your seats, please watch the movie in a civilized manner. 】
"Ah? What a strange place." Nami couldn't help but frown.
"If you are scared, Nami-san, you can hold my hand tightly." Sanji instantly flashed to Nami's side.
"Actually," Brooke raised his hands, his bones cracking, "I'm scared too."
"Then go find Green Algae Head."
"Shut up and curl your eyebrows."
"Well, everyone, stop arguing. Just do what the subtitles say."
Although everyone was surprised, they did not sense any danger and decided to sit down and see what was going on.
Everyone took their seats, the words on the big screen gradually faded, and a string of bubbles first appeared on the screen.
Then the camera zooms in.
[Gululu... A small pink octopus the size of a palm appears on the screen...]
The people in the seats were instantly in an uproar.
"Huh? This octopus looks like Merry when he was little."
"Shanks is awesome, this octopus is indeed me."
"Wow! Merry used to be so cute!"
"So small! Like a sticky rice dumpling, I really want to touch it!"
"I want to take a bite too!"
Seeing the little octopus, everyone praised Meli for being cute.
Meili's face turned red like a ripe apple, and several tentacles shyly twisted into a knot: "Ah, thank you all for your love..."
"Shy Merry-chan is even cuter!" Sanji's eyes turned into two beating red hearts.
The scene continued, and when they saw the little octopus struggling to survive at the bottom of the sea, being sucked into a whirlpool and getting injured, the Straw Hat Pirates and the Red Hair Pirates were suddenly heartbroken.
"Merry!"
Luffy yelled, leaping out of his seat, his rubber arms extended, charging straight at the screen.
Bang—his fist hit an invisible barrier and bounced him back.
"What kind of screen is this?" A flame popped up from Ace's fingertips.
The orange-red fire dragon rushed out and swallowed the big screen.
Brooke, who was in the front row, was burned by the flames and panicked, hugging her afro and screaming, "Yohoo!!! My hair!!!"
The people around burst into laughter.
The big screen has its own fire extinguisher. When it senses the approach of flames, thick fog instantly appears around it, and the fire is put out without a trace in just three or two seconds, leaving the big screen underneath unharmed.
"Huh? That's really weird."
The others couldn't help but get excited, and a stream of ice spread out with a crackling sound.
Zoro also habitually touched the hilt, but touched nothing, and immediately showed disappointment: "Tsk."
The image on the screen disappeared instantly, and then a row of large blood-red characters popped up, flashing wildly.
【Warning!!! Please do not damage the playback screen!!!】
Marco gently comforted everyone: "Forget it, everyone calm down and continue reading."
"Forget it, let it go."
Everyone calmed down, the red warning letter faded, and the rest of the story continued to play on the screen.
A large net descends from the sky, trapping Merry. The little octopus is dragged onto the deck, and a young man with a pineapple head slowly approaches...
“Wow—”
Shanks jumped up from his seat and grabbed Marco, who was sitting in the front row, by the back of his collar: "Pony! Merry is our group's favorite, how dare you treat our child like this!"
"Wait!" Marco raised his hands and apologized quickly, "I didn't know that octopus was Merry. Sorry! Sorry!"
"If it's okay to just say you don't know, what's the point of having a navy?"
"Hey, Shanks, calm down. Nothing happened to Merry."
"It will be too late if something really happens!"
[The scene continues. The little octopus is trapped in the fish tank. It desperately uses its tentacles to pry and struggle, but it can't escape after trying for a long time...]
"Oh, Merry was so pitiful when he was little!"
"You bastard, you actually treated Merry like that!"
Huaidibei was also strangled by Gulixiati. Some people stepped forward to persuade them to stop fighting, while others took the opportunity to push them.
"Stop hitting me, stop hitting me."
"Don't be afraid, Meli. I will help you get revenge."
"Oh, it really was a misunderstanding."
The people from the Red Group and the White Group were huddled together, with the Straw Hat Pirates sandwiched in the middle. The scene suddenly became chaotic and at one point it became extremely confusing.
[Ding—Excessive conflict energy detected! Activating barrier protection!]
999 seemed to remember something and hurriedly set up a sub-dimensional barrier.
"Crack, crack, crack--" Several translucent air walls appeared out of thin air, forcibly separating and blocking the members of three different pirate groups.
They could no longer attack people from different camps, nor could they hear each other's voices. This sudden change made everyone look at each other in confusion.
At the same time, a palm-sized screen square appeared in front of each of them.
[For a better viewing experience, if you need to communicate, please enter text on the chat tool.]
"Ah? What the hell is this?" Luffy was the first to raise his hand and poke at the screen, typing a long string of meaningless letters and symbols on the small squares.
The small cubes in front of everyone received this garbled message at the same time, and many smart people instantly understood the purpose of the small cubes.
And then...since most of these pirates were illiterate, not many complete sentences came out of the small cubes.
"What the hell is this? It's so hard to use!"
"Who posted this? Do you understand what's written?"
"Little Harry's second brother? I can't understand what you're talking about."
Everyone was watching and cursing and complaining to themselves.
The viewing experience is greatly reduced.
999 sighed inwardly, helplessly as a new announcement popped up.
[Ding—Low literacy rate detected. Voice call function re-enabled. Volume automatically adjusted to an appropriate level. Please open the microphone for friendly communication.]
"What? We're not unfriendly."
"What nonsense is it talking about? Low literacy rate?"
"Tsk, what does it matter whether you can read or not? Wouldn't it be better to open voice calls earlier?"
At this time, everyone calmed down and started complaining about the troubles in the cinema.
999 wiped a cold sweat, and the picture on the big screen continued.
"Slurp, this octopus looks like it would be really delicious if made into octopus balls."
"Luffy! You're still thinking about eating Merry!"
"I can't help it. The little octopus is just too cute and soft."
"Oh ha ha ha, it turns out Merry has been to the Devil's Triangle before."
"Damn it! I want to grab a handful of that cute Merry-chan too!"
"Haa ...
Zoro's microphone was not turned off, and soon the snoring sound spread throughout the cinema.
"Tsk, rude idiot swordsman."
......
The scene on the big screen continued. Seeing the little octopus working very hard to become stronger and growing up little by little, everyone's eyes were filled with tears again.
[The cute little octopus is being targeted by human traffickers...]
The audience gasped collectively.
“Damn human traffickers!!!”
"Where are these human traffickers! Beat up everyone who bullies Meili-chan!"
The person involved, Meli, felt more and more that something was wrong. Why were all the images played on the big screen of her?
This feeling of public execution! It's too shameful!!!
Meli raised his tentacles and covered his red face tightly with his hands. He lowered his head and curled up into a ball, almost crawling under the seat.
[The little octopus finally evolved into an octopus mermaid, and in the raging fire of the holy land of Marijoa, he rescued many people who were oppressed by the Celestial Dragons...]
The audience burst into applause, whistles and cheers.
"Merry is so handsome!"
"That Fishman Karate strike was incredible!"
"That's our child!"
“It’s ours too!”
......
Just when Meli was about to be evaporated by Hong Wen, there was a light knocking sound beside her.
Merry raised his head and cracked his fingers.
Across the transparent barrier, Ace pressed his fingers against the wall. Seeing Meli sticking her head out, the flames on his fingertips transformed into a mini octopus.
"Hey, it's really nice to see Merry as a child." Ace shook the flames on his fingertips and smiled. "Also, when he beat the Celestial Dragons, he was really super-cool."
The blush on Meili's face suddenly became even hotter, but the corners of her lips couldn't help but rise: "I'm not trying to be cool on purpose."
"I know." The smile in Ace's eyes deepened, and with a flip of his finger, the flaming octopus turned into a flaming sheep head.
Merry pounced on the transparent barrier, looking at Ace with sparkling eyes: "Wow, that's amazing! How did you do that?"
"Hahaha, just a little trick." Ace's smile was as warm and dazzling as the flames at his fingertips. With a slight shake of his wrist, the lamb's head turned into a small boat.
Mellie's attention was completely drawn in, while the picture on the big screen continued.
[Merry followed the Red Group to the East China Sea. The little mermaid met Usopp, Nami, Zoro, Luffy, Sanji...]
"Wow...it turns out that Merry was secretly watching me all that time."
"By the way, I heard that Merry was the reincarnation of the ship that the Straw Hat Pirates first sailed on?"
"Yes. Even after reincarnation, you still try every possible way to return to your friends. It's so touching that my heart is about to break. Yohohohoho~~ Although I don't have a heart at all."
"That's right! Our Merry is so well behaved and nice!"
"Iron Mee! This is super-romantic!"
"What? Is there such a reason? This is so touching."
"Merry—"
......
[Merry and Robin are being chased by Kuzan. Merry stands in front of Robin and is instantly frozen...]
The whole audience became excited again.
Gulixiati crossed her arms and snorted coldly: "I almost forgot, you actually attacked Meili-chan!"
Kuzan scratched his fluffy curly hair and said, "Ah la la, it was my duty at the time. My two lovely ladies, please forgive my previous offense."
Meili waved his hand: "It's okay for me. I'm not seriously injured anyway."
Robin's mouth twitched slightly, he lowered his eyes and didn't respond.
In the twenty years before she met Luffy, Robin had been betrayed, put on a bounty, and hunted. Her life was indeed too painful, and she didn't know how to forgive.
The atmosphere suddenly became much gloomier.
[Merry turned into an ice sculpture and sank to the bottom of the sea. The surroundings turned into a dark blue. Small fish and shrimps occasionally swam by the edge of the ice sculpture. Once, it was discovered by a killer whale, who treated the ice sculpture as a toy, tossing it around...]
Boom, boom... Everyone was shocked again, their hearts rising and falling like the ice sculpture.
Shanks stood up quickly, holding his head in his hands: "Hey, hey! That fish! Be gentle with my child!"
Uta leaned forward and threw herself on the front seat, extremely anxious: "If the ice sculpture is broken, Merry inside will be in trouble!"
Laqilu shouted in panic: "Merry, don't be afraid, I'm here to save you!"
"Everyone, calm down. This is a video from the past. Meli is fine." Beckman held an unlit cigarette in his mouth, his face calm, but his hands were tightly gripping the armrests of the chair, his fingertips turning white.
The ice sculpture in the camera was thrown up again, and some spider-like cracks appeared at the corners.
"Whoa, whoa, Merry! Don't break it!"
"Where's my sword! I'm going to chop that stupid fish!"
"Don't worry, I'm still here."
"Ahhh, Merry, you've suffered!"
......
As spring turns to autumn, the ice sculpture floats to the sea and encounters Ace, who has just been out at sea...
Luffy jumped up and said, "Hey, it's Ace!"
Robin patted his chest gently: "Merry is okay, I'm so glad."
The scene continues, [Merry sails with Ace and Deuce, defeating the invading pirates...]
"Merry and Ace worked together so well together," Marco said, his chin resting on his hand, a flicker of nostalgia in his eyes. "Back then, the 'Water and Fire Duo' were quite famous in the Grand Line."
Izo folded his arms and sighed, "It's a shame that Merry didn't follow Ace and join us in the White Group."
"Tsk, Merry is from our Red Group!" Jesus turned around and glared, "Stop trying to poach us."
Vista raised his hand, twirling his black beard, and glared back, unwilling to be outdone: "Your captain is always trying to poach our people."
"Speaking of which," Shanks turned around, smiling brightly, "Marco, are you really not considering leaving Whitebeard and joining us?"
Marco smiled politely, "Thanks for the invitation. I'm doing fine around Dad."
Newgate laughed out loud: "Gulala, red-haired devil, you still haven't given up?"
"How about you merge your Red Group into our White Group? That way, we'll all be one family."
"You're getting more and more ridiculous. Listen to yourself, is this human language?"
......
[Misty forest, dark night.
Merry and Merry, one big and one small, worked together to repair the boat...
A tear fell from the corner of Meili's eye, and the narration expressed her feelings:
"I really hope to sail with you all forever."]
"Wuwuwuwu..." Chopper was the first to burst into tears, "Merry..."
The others couldn't hold it in either, tears and snot streamed down their cheeks, and sobbing filled the theater.
"I'm sorry, Mary! I didn't expect you to be so badly injured back then!"
"Ah, everyone, don't be like this," Merry waved his tentacles frantically, trying to comfort his crying companions. "Actually, it's mainly my fault. It's not strong enough..."
"You idiot!" Nami rushed over and hugged Merry, "How can I blame you for this!"
Zoro sat with his arms folded, his eyes slightly red without any tears, "If I really want to blame someone, I'll blame the stupid captain."
"Zoro finally said something that makes sense." Usopp, Chopper and Sanji all nodded in agreement, tears streaming down their faces.
"Yes, it's my fault! It's all my fault!" Luffy didn't refute, but rushed over to hug Merry and burst into tears, "It's all my fault for being too rude and not having good ship repair skills."
"Your skills are not only bad, they are non-existent!" Thinking of Luffy's ship repair skills, Usopp couldn't help but scold.
The Straw Hat Pirates were crying together. Merry was strangled by several of them and couldn't breathe. She had to stretch out her tentacles to comfort them.
"Don't cry, I'm here now."
The other two pirate group members were also overwhelmed with fatherly love and wiped away their tears.
"Merry is indeed a good boy."
"Until now, I am still comforting my friends."
Hongo wiped the red corners of his eyes and exclaimed, "So this is the ship spirit!"
Punch's eyes were red as he rubbed Mengshida's head furiously. "Strange! We've always taken good care of our Red Force, so why hasn't it spawned a ship spirit?"
Mengshida echoed with two shouts, his eyes also red: "Haha?" Right? Why?
Gulixiati sniffled and raised her head proudly, "Of course, that's because I've always maintained the boat perfectly. The boat spirit doesn't even need to show up to repair it."
"So that's how it is." Everyone nodded in agreement.
Hearing this, Luffy cried even harder: "Ah? As expected! It's our fault that the Merry broke down! I'm sorry, waa ...
The scene on the big screen arrives at the beautiful water city.
Sanji and Merry happily strolled through the shopping street. As Merry approached, Sanji excitedly started bleeding from his nose...
Beckman, who knew the nature of men well, stood up from his seat, and the cigarette in his mouth dropped. "Wait! Blond boy, what are you thinking? Why is your nose bleeding?!"
Snake raised his fist, showing his biceps, and threatened: "You little bastard, you're not even close to being able to date our daughter!"
Sanji waved his hands in panic: "Dear fathers-in-law, please calm down, I..."
Everyone in the Red Group stood up excitedly, with ferocious looks on their faces.
"What! Father-in-law!?"
“Who is your father-in-law!!!”
"You little bastard, I'm warning you, stay away from us Merry!"
If it weren't for the dimensional barrier, these fatherly uncles might really rush over and beat Sanji up.
On the other side of the White Group, Izo took off one sleeve of his kimono and said, "Merry, this kind of blond pervert is not acceptable. If you don't want to be your father's daughter, why not become our White Group's sister-in-law?"
"That's right, our second squad captain is young and promising, with good looks and a great figure..."
"That won't work! Merry is still a child, how can she get married so soon?"
"Oh, we're all adults now, let's settle down first..."
Ace's ears turned slightly red, and he put his fist to his lips and coughed softly: "...Stop making trouble."
Meili tilted her head in confusion, "Huh? What's a sister-in-law?"
"It's okay, Merry doesn't need to know this kind of stuff."
Everyone was laughing together, the cinema was noisy and joyful.
The scene on the screen gradually turned dark.
[“Your ship can no longer sail.”…]
As the wind and rain hit, everyone's smiles gradually disappeared, and the cinema suddenly became eerily quiet.
[“I’m here to pick you up. Let’s go home, everyone.”…]
"Mei, Meili!!!"
[The torch fell, and the flames instantly engulfed the sheep's head...]
More than 30 people in the audience burst into tears at the same time, and the roar of sobbing was earth-shaking and lasted for a long time.
Their emotions were so intense that the dimensional walls of the cinema were actually crackling and forming spider-web-like cracks.
999 was just about to block out everyone's voices again when the player suddenly started flashing wildly.
It thought to itself that something was wrong and had to end the movie early and turn off the player.
The big screen flashed like snowflakes, and a column of red subtitles popped up urgently.
[Today's movie viewing ends here! ]
"Eh? Is that all?"
"Hey! I haven't seen enough yet!"
"Wait! I want to keep watching!"
"That's right, how can it end? It's already reaching its climax!"
Everyone's figures gradually became transparent, with tears still on their faces, and they were forcibly expelled from the cinema.
"Merry, take care of yourself."
Uta's shouts were still echoing, but the lights in the cinema had completely gone out.
Whoosh——
A violent pulling force came over Meli, and his eyes went dark. When he opened his eyes again, he heard the familiar sound of waves.
"It's the Sunny. Phew, it's finally back."
Just as Merry breathed a sigh of relief, a trembling roar of anger suddenly came from behind him.
"Who are you!?"
Facing the octopus mermaid who suddenly appeared on the deck, Usopp raised his slingshot in panic, "Don't mess around! I have more than 8,000 subordinates..."
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!" Chopper hid behind the mast, his voice trembling, "That's right! We are very powerful pirates!"
"Huh?" Merry tilted her head in confusion, staring blankly at the nervous Usopp and Chopper.
Hearing the noise on the deck, several figures jumped out of the cabin one after another.
Seeing the figure on the deck clearly, Sanji stopped his flying kick in a hurry, his eyes filled with hearts: "Pink octopus mermaid? So beautiful!"
Franky puts up his sunglasses, Robin smiles calmly, and Zoro is filled with murderous intent...
Luffy calmly gnawed on the large bone and asked vaguely, "Who is this? Can I eat it?"
"Eh? What's wrong with you? I'm Meli!" Meli waved her hands in panic, "Didn't we just go to that strange movie theater together? The lights suddenly dimmed, and then we..."
There was silence at the scene, and a series of question marks floated above everyone's heads.
"I have no idea what you're talking about." Luffy swallowed the meat in one gulp, then suddenly stretched out his arms, jumped over, and poked the octopus's tentacle with his hand, grinning with his signature smile, "You're so funny, do you want to join us?"
"Okay." Merry nodded in agreement without hesitation.
"Great!" Sanji came to Merry's side like a whirlwind, "My beautiful lady, come and have afternoon tea with me. What kind of tea do you like?"
"Ah, thank you Sanji-kun, I like orange tea the most."
Nami's expression softened considerably. "Do you like oranges? You have good taste."
Usopp still hadn't put down his slingshot: "Wait, don't think you can clear your suspicion just like that. Tell the truth, who are you?"
"Yeah, tell me the truth." Chopper had already hidden behind Zoro, only sticking his head out. "And what is this viewing room you mentioned?"
"Ah, why doesn't anyone remember me?"
Meli blinked, looking a little confused, but continued to explain patiently.
"I'm the ship spirit of the Merry. After being burned, I was reincarnated as an octopus mermaid. By chance, I traveled through a rift in time and space and returned to twenty years ago. After meeting everyone, we continue sailing and adventuring together."
"scare???"
There are more question marks on everyone's head.
"Merry has been reincarnated?" Usopp was very curious, but also very scared, and his face was full of vigilance.
"Do you know this person?"
"I have no recollection of it at all."
"I've never seen her either."
Everyone shook their heads, indicating that they did not know this octopus mermaid.
Being collectively denied, Merry couldn't help but get a little anxious, waving his tentacles wildly: "How could this be? Just a few minutes ago, we were sitting together, watching... watching my documentary. It happened to be playing at the Judicial Island..."
"No, we didn't."
"Well, forget it," Luffy slammed his palm and laughed happily, "Why don't we just become partners now?"
"Wait..." Robin raised his hand to stop her, his smile gentle but inquiring. "You said you were traveling with us, could you tell us in detail about what you experienced during the voyage?"
Sanji had already brought a full set of afternoon tea like a whirlwind: "Ms. Merry, please sit down first, drink tea and chat slowly."
"Well, okay." Meili held the cup and sat down obediently. She looked around at the familiar but unfamiliar faces and said softly, "That day, after I was burned..."
The stories she told were so real, and she knew every detail about each of her companions, as well as the Merry and the Sunny. The more they listened, the more shocked they were.
Those things were indeed their experiences during the voyage, and it would be impossible to know them so clearly if they had not sailed together.
Usopp, Chopper, and Luffy were so shocked that their jaws dropped to the deck: "You even know this!?"
Robin's eyes flashed: "These details can't be made up casually. It seems that what you said is true."
Nami frowned slightly: "But why don't we have any impression of it?"
"Yeah, it's as if all my memories of Merry have been wiped out. I have no recollection of him."
"This shouldn't be the case. I will never forget anything about Lady!"
"I seem to have read in a book that perhaps the us that Merry saw were us in another timeline."
"Huh? What did Robin mean?"
"The theory of parallel worlds. Someone once proposed this idea: when the same thing faces different choices, the world will split into different subsequent developments. Each different choice may give rise to a different world line."
"Ah, I don't understand anything at all." The idiots frantically scratched their heads, "My brain feels like it's going to explode."
"Actually, the principle is not important," Robin smiled. "Miss Maylie, please continue."
"Okay, we were in the Sabaody Archipelago, after being beaten away by the tyrant..."
Merry tells the story of how she was forced to separate from her companions, was rescued by the Byakuya Pirates, and participated in the Battle of Marineford.
"What?!" Luffy's pupils trembled, and he threw himself on Merry, shouting excitedly, "Are you serious? Ace is not dead?!!!"
"It's true," Merry explained patiently, feeling choked. "Law helped with the heart transplant, and Ace is recovering well now. Ten minutes ago, we met in a place called the Cinema Hall. You were there too, as were Shanks..."
Luffy was too excited to listen any further. He let go of Merry and ran madly on the Sunny.
"Ace's still alive!!! That's great!"
The others were also very happy for Luffy: "That's great."
"It's really interesting. Although we in this other world have the same experiences, our development is not exactly the same."
"Hahahaha, Ace is still alive!" Luffy ran a few laps and returned to his companions, then suddenly stopped. "Sanji! Let's have a party tonight!"
"Sure, no problem." Sanji nodded without hesitation and turned around, "Merry-chan~~ Do you have any favorite dishes? Lobster? Steak? Or octopus... Uh, forget about octopus."
"As long as it's cooked by Sanji-san, I like it all."
"Yo ho ho ho~~~ It's really exciting," Brooke picked up the violin, "Please let me play a song for everyone~"
“That’s great~~~”
The Straw Hat Pirates cheered collectively and began to prepare for the banquet with great enthusiasm to the sound of music.
"Cheers to us in another world!"
