Chapter 69 Throwing the 'Monster' into the Sea

The moonlight sprinkled on the lonely island like water, casting mottled shadows.

On a quiet night, a sudden rainstorm broke the tranquility, thunder roared, and lightning cut through the dark sky.

The weather on the Grand Route is so changeable. It may be sunny one moment and raining heavily the next.

In the storm, a woman stood alone on the beach, raindrops soaking her clothes through the umbrella.

There was helplessness and confusion in her eyes, like a bird that had lost its way home, exhausted both physically and mentally.

"Staying here is not good for your health."

Jinan appeared in her sight.

His face was vaguely visible in the heavy rain, but it revealed a gentleness. He moved his umbrella closer to the woman, just enough to block the raindrops that slipped through the net.

Tian Yueshi's pretty face flushed slightly, and her bright eyes stared at Jin An steadily, looking at the other's smiling face with some embarrassment.

"Thank you..." Tian Yueshi said softly, his voice trembling slightly but full of tenderness.

She had been drifting alone in the long river of time for too long, and it seemed right to suddenly stop like this.

"You seem to have something on your mind?"

Jinan observed Tianyue's expression. Her eyes revealed a deep worry and a hint of expectation, as if she was troubled by something that she was both expecting and worried about.

The woman raised her head and looked into Jin'an's eyes full of warmth, and an indescribable feeling surged in her heart.

Her voice is soft and beautiful.

"I have longed to reach Wano Country since I was a child, but unfortunately, after traveling for so long, it is still a long way off."

When Jinan heard the name of the island, it sounded familiar. In his previous life, someone had always been talking to him about wanting to go to Wano Country and kill Momonosuke.

But it is not clear who Momonosuke is. After all, he was kept there after defeating Mingo, and I didn’t get to read on until I traveled through time.

"Wano Country, I remember it was in the Grand Line... This should be the South China Sea... right?"

Tian Yueshi was standing on the beach, listening to Jinan say that this was the South China Sea. A hint of surprise appeared on her face, her eyes staring into the distance, as if she was thinking about something, and then she shook her head gently.

"This is the second half of the Grand Line."

"what?"

It came out of the lantern fish's belly and ended up in a place like this. It would take a long time to get back to the South China Sea.

"Are you from the South China Sea?"

Tian Yueshi’s beautiful eyes opened wide and she covered her lips with her delicate hands.

She knew how far the South China Sea was from here, but the other party seemed to be unaware that she had arrived at the Grand Line.

This doesn't make sense...

It's impossible that he teleported here.

She can travel through time, but can anyone travel through space?

This aroused Tian Shiyue's interest again.

The man in front of her seemed to be wearing a navy uniform, which she had seen when she was traveling through time.

"Yes, my family is in the Kingdom of Solbei in the South China Sea..."

Jin An rubbed his slightly aching head. The Den Den Mushi had long been digested in the gastric juice of the lantern fish without leaving any residue. He could only rely on himself to return to the South China Sea.

He asked, how come we had been flying for such a long time but didn’t even encounter a warship.

In the second half of the Grand Line, it would be a miracle if you could encounter a warship.

This is a paradise for pirates. The most powerful pirates in the world occupy a piece of territory here and claim to be the king. The power of the navy can be said to be stretched to the limit here.

"If you want to go back to the South China Sea, it may be difficult to do so." Tian Yueshi thought for a moment.

Although she didn't know exactly where she was.

However, if you want to return to the Four Seas from the second half of the Grand Line, there are only two options.

The first is to directly cross the doldrums. This is the simplest but also the most difficult method, because as far as she knows, those who choose this method have all ended up in the belly of the fish.

The second is to reach the Four Seas through the Red Earth Continent, but this method requires applying to the Celestial Dragons first. She doesn't know whether this method is reliable or not, she also heard it from hearsay.

"It doesn't matter. There will always be a way out when you reach the mountain..." Jinan could only comfort himself in this way.

Tian Yueshi looked at the man in front of him with shining eyes. What he said was really philosophical.

Jin An slapped his head and returned to the original topic:

"Oh, by the way, you said you were going to Wano Country, right?"

Tian Yueshi nodded, a glimmer of longing in his eyes.

Her family has lived outside Wano Country for generations, but strictly speaking, they are still affiliated with the Kozuki family.

But...now her family has disappeared in the long river of history.

She just had an obsession to go to the place that her family longed for.

"So what are your plans after arriving in Wano Country?" Jin An asked curiously.

"Wano Country...what's your plan for the future?" There was some confusion in Tianyue Toki's beautiful eyes.

She had never thought about it, her journey had spanned 800 years and now she was alone.

"I have no idea......"

Tian Shiyue thought about it for a while, but still couldn't come up with an answer to this question.

"But I must go to Wano Country!"

Her words were firm. She couldn't even reach Wano Country, let alone what happened after that.

"This is my first time in the Grand Line, and I don't even know where Wano Country is. I really can't help you with this..."

Jin An looked at the corpses all around him and felt a little regretful.

"I should have kept one person alive for questioning."

At first, he thought they were still in the South China Sea, so he didn't think much about it and just killed all of them.

But...it's not a big problem...

Jin An and Tian Yueshi looked at each other and then turned their gazes to the 'monster' who was sleeping soundly on the beach.

"..."

"Jin'an...Jin'an...I found something good!"

Olga was holding an umbrella and a piece of paper in her hand, and she ran towards Jinan happily.

Before Jin An could reply, Olga handed the paper in her hand to him.

"Look! Look! This is the bounty for those guys you just killed! We're rich!"

Olga was jumping up and down beside them. This money was the first sum of money they had obtained after returning to this world. How could she not be happy?

Octopus Topaz Pirates.

Captain: Karma

Bounty: 4000 million Baileys

Jin An stared at the photo on the reward, stroking his chin and thinking...

"Why does this guy look like he has seen it somewhere?"

Tian Yueshi was a little surprised. Her beautiful eyes moved back and forth between Jin An and the wanted poster. "Why? Have you seen this guy?"

Suddenly, Jin An slapped his thigh, he remembered where he had seen this guy.

During the Battle of Marineford, this guy participated in the war as the captain of a pirate group under the Whitebeard Pirates.

"Well...I guess I have seen it before."

"Anyway, this guy is not a good person!"

Jinan laughed and passed over the topic.

"4000 million..."
