I reached the top of Pirates

Chapter 312, page 311: Are you called...Im?

Messer looked at Kizaru: "Tell me about Sengoku and Akainu."

The moment those words were spoken, the atmosphere became awkward, and Garp coughed.

Kizaru's brow twitched, and he looked around, but he was too lazy to hide it any longer.

He didn't hide anything and said it directly:

"Actually, the two of them are practically one of us."

"Through my efforts, everyone here has immediately sided with us."

First, your abilities are undeniable.

Second, they both disliked the Celestial Dragons.

three,"

Needless to say, Moses knew it was because they were all people related to him.

"They're all your own people."

After Kizaru finished speaking, he embellished the sentence, saying, "As for Sengoku and Akainu,..."

Firstly, because such a large naval operation always requires people to stay and maintain it.

Secondly, because I cannot fully trust you.

But don't worry, they're not enemies; they just can't trust you as completely as we do.

Upon hearing this, Moses nodded. As for his claim of complete trust, he smiled and said, "Who would believe that?"
"A traitor?"

Mercer's casual words echoed throughout the area, causing them to look embarrassed and inwardly resentful.

Kizaru opened his mouth and sighed, about to speak, when Mather waved his hand:
"okay, I get it."

He then looked at Zephyr and the others present, reassuring them:

"Since you are willing to believe that I can defeat the World Government, then I will not let you down."

This is your reward for making the right choice.

As he spoke, he looked at Kizaru and sensed the source energy aura that had appeared on his body. One after another, soul memory orbs appeared in front of everyone except him.

"This is a memory light cluster with a life-source breathing technique, a cultivation method that can allow people to break through the limits of life."

Just touch it with your hands.

As he spoke, he looked at Kizaru and chuckled, "Your Origin Fruit should have awakened by now, so you can introduce it to them."

I'll come find you in ten days.

Having said that, he looked at Garp, who had touched and absorbed the memory orb without hesitation.

He smiled and looked at Kuzan, who hadn't moved yet. He couldn't forget about this source.

A moment later, Mercer's figure disappeared. Kuzan sat in a chair, sweating profusely, panting as he stared at the ball of light before him.

Kizaru looked at Kuzan with a grin, "How does it feel? The pain of having your Devil Fruit power forcibly stripped away."

Kuzan rolled his eyes at Kizaru, glanced at the others in the conference room who had also had their Devil Fruits stripped, and then looked at the ball of light in front of him:
"Life essence? Is that the kind of energy you mentioned before, the kind that is sublimated from domineering aura?"

Kizaru laughed. "Not bad."

It's amazing energy! I feel like my body has become younger.

I feel like I could easily live another hundred or two hundred years.

Kuzan gave him a complicated look. "How strong do you think that kid is now?"

Kizaru's mouth twisted into a crooked smile as he said:
"How would I know? If you're curious, just ask him yourself. Aren't you on good terms with him?"

……

One step and you arrive in the South China Sea.

Bateriara Island.

On a small hillside, looking at a small grave in front of him, Moses's expression was somewhat silent.

Inside the grave was a skeleton.

Portgas D. Rouge.

The domain of power emanated outwards, enveloping the small island. A dull gray light emanated from within the domain, and everything around it rapidly receded.

Time has reversed in this area.

A jumble of images flashed before my eyes, until one moment, I followed the flow of time back to a house, where a baby was born and a woman's life came to an end.

Mercer traversed through time until this moment, when a dim light entered her body.

Her time was frozen.

Her existence was frozen in time.

Time begins to rush towards the future.

Mercer watched as Garp arranged the woman's funeral, seeing her buried in the ground with a reluctant smile, and the coffin sealed.

In the blink of an eye, twenty years have passed.

Moses remained standing at the grave, his gaze piercing through the tomb to the woman who appeared to be asleep.

The power of space enveloped her.

Mercer spread his arms wide in a princess carry position, and in the blink of an eye, the woman appeared in Mercer's arms.

Looking at her asleep, her frozen time began to flow.

Concept: Ultra-fast regeneration.

The phoenix's blue flames burned inside and outside her body, and a massive amount of life force flowed into her body.

To make up for her missing source of life.

Immediately afterwards, the power of the primordial fruit merged into her body.

Celestial-Human Fruit. Mythical Zoan type. Nature Goddess form.

The concept of this fruit originates from life and nature.

It was specially made for her by Mercer.

Mercer took a step forward with her in his arms, and the space shifted, and the next moment they arrived at a beautiful resort island.

I booked a VIP suite at a hotel.

He put her on the bed in the house, took off her shoes, and covered her with a blanket.

Sitting on the edge of the bed, he noticed her brows furrowing slightly, and Mercer touched her forehead with his right index finger.

It adjusts her life energy field, activating her body and soul.

A moment later, Rouge's eyelashes fluttered, and she opened her eyes. Seeing this scene, for some reason, Mercer felt a little nervous.

Rouge sat up, her gaze wary and hesitant as she looked at Mercer:

"Excuse me, sir? My name is Rouge. How did I get here? Shouldn't I be dead already?"

Mercer scratched his head, finding this somewhat difficult to explain, and looked at Rouge with a hint of nervousness, saying:

"If I told you you were my mom, how would you feel?"

Rouge frowned, gripped the blanket with both hands, and subtly shifted her hips backward.

Moses was exasperated. Sometimes he would tell the truth, but the problem was that nobody believed him.

Thinking of this, she sighed helplessly. Hearing Mercer's helpless sigh, Rouge, who was staring intently at Mercer, felt a slight tremor in her heart.

Mercer pressed his fingertips against his forehead, and after a few seconds pulled them out, revealing a ball of memory light in front of him.

The sphere of memory light floated in front of Rouge, and Messer said helplessly:

"This is a memory of mine, containing my growth experience, Ace, and Grandpa Garp."

Simply touch it with your hands; it will present itself in your memory from the perspective of a third-person viewpoint, like watching a play.

Hearing Ace and Garp's names, Rouge's heart skipped a beat, and she looked at Messe and asked in a trembling voice:

"What year is it now?"

"Haiyuan Calendar, August 6, 1520".

"Merse said softly."

Has it been twenty years?
Rouge stared intently at Mercer, her voice trembling as she asked, "What's your name?"

Mercer laughed: "Portcus D. Mercer."

Rouge looked at the ball of memory light in front of her and eagerly touched it. The next moment, her body froze.

Before long, she covered her mouth with both hands, tears streaming from her eyes, and murmured in a sobbing voice:

"Waaah, it's my Messer, it's my child."

A moment later, Rouge looked at Mercer with red eyes, opened her arms and hugged him tightly around the neck.

"Messer, my child, you've grown up. Waaaaah!"

"Yes, that's my mom."

For some reason, the wind today is a bit too strong for my eyes.

A moment later, looking at Rouge who was hugging him and crying incessantly, Mercer said helplessly:
“Miss Rouge, do you know you’ve been in a coffin for twenty years? You smell a bit musty.” Rouge’s sobs faltered, her face flushed, and she abruptly pushed Mercer away, hastily creating distance between them.

"Me me me"

Mercer laughed and said, "There's a bathroom here. Go wash up first, then I'll take you to get something to eat. After you've eaten, I'll take you home to see Ace."

Rouge blushed and nodded, staring blankly at Mercer, her eyes sparkling with happiness.

He reached out and pinched Moses's face, grinning foolishly:

"It's true, this isn't just a dying fantasy."

Mercer nodded helplessly, "It's true, I brought you back from the past to the present."

Rouge threw off the covers, got out of bed, and ran to the bathroom to wash up.

Mercer flashed to a clothing store outside and bought her an outfit.
Shortly after returning to the hotel room, I moved the clothes I had bought to the bathroom.

"I bought you some clothes, but I don't know what you like, so wear these for now. If you don't like them, I'll go out and buy some more later."

"Yes, Mom likes it very much."

Rouge's sweet voice appeared.

Mercer sat on the sofa, exhaling a breath of stale air, his eyes flashing with thought.
A short while later, Rouge came out wearing a well-fitting red dress with ruffles.

Her long, wet, wavy blonde hair cascaded down her waist.

Rouge looked at Mercer, her eyes sparkling with affection. "Let's go out."

Moses nodded and stood up.

She took him to a resort island outside the city, helping him get acquainted with the present day, twenty years in the future.
After having a meal,

In a beautiful park, the two chatted, Rouge's eyes sparkling as she listened to Mercer recount his exciting adventures.

“That sister Doriel is such a kind person, Mercer, please take me to visit her.”

Looking at the sky above, Mercer smiled and said, "It's just in time for dinner. I haven't been back for a while. Let's go."

Mercer stood up and extended his hand to Rouge. Rouge smiled at Mercer, then took his right arm, looking pleased.

"Let's go, Moses."

He took her one step out of the spatial shift and onto the sea, the second step onto the Eternal Ship, and the third step back onto the ship's deck.

Rouge turned her head to look at Mercer blankly, "What's this?"

Moses laughed:

"Our home, my boat."

Just then, the people on deck, who were playing together, suddenly saw Moses return.
However, everyone's attention was focused on Rouge, who was standing next to Mercer.

The atmosphere suddenly became awkward.

At this moment, Ace, who was leaning against the fence chatting with Sabo, laughed heartily:

"Méther, it's been over a year, and you've brought back another stunning beauty."

Aren't you going to introduce it to me?

Mercer turned and glanced at him indifferently. At that moment, Rouge followed Mercer and turned around. She saw Ace, her gaze sharpened, and then she looked up at Mercer, somewhat uncertain:
"he is?"

Moses's lips curled into a smile:

"It's Ace, but this kid's got a bit of a problem."

Rouge released Mercer, covered her mouth with both hands, stared blankly at Ace, and tears welled up in her eyes again.

Ace felt inexplicably flustered under their gaze and looked to Moses for help:

"Who is this beautiful woman? I have a strange feeling about her."

Mercer looked at Ace and chuckled:

"Based on blood relations, you have to call her Mom."

Seeing Ace's blank stare, Mercer laughed and said, "That's right, I pulled our mother out of the river of time."

Aren't you excited?

Ace's lips twitched violently as he looked at Mercer with a shocked and incredulous expression.

The next moment, the woman, accompanied by a fragrant breeze, appeared before Ace, embraced him tightly as he stood frozen in place, and wept with happiness.
"Ace, my Ace"

Ace opened his arms blankly, unsure of where to put them.

Looking at Moses, he couldn't help but give him a pleading look.

Mercer grinned, a silent sneer.

At this moment, Pepe ran to Mercer's side, took Mercer's right arm, and asked curiously:
Is this really the mother?

Mercer nodded calmly, "It's definitely true, I dug her out of her grave with my own hands."

Peipei's lips twitched violently, and she said helplessly, "You can even do something like this now?"

Moses said:
"It's just traveling back in time to the past."

Let me briefly explain the principle behind this operation.

Peipei felt her head spinning, shook it violently, and forced a dry laugh:

"Hello, hello. I know you're great~ That's all that matters."

……

It happened in the blink of an eye.

The appointed day has arrived.

Nine o'clock in the morning.

Mercer breathed a sigh of relief as he watched Rouge getting along well with Makino and the others.

It seems she has adapted to her current life, which is good. Mercer has made up for a regret in his heart.

Stepping out of the cabin onto the outer deck, Asia approached.

Are you going out?

Moses nodded and chuckled: "Let's go to Mary Geoise."

Asya laughed, "Then I'll go too. I won't hold you back."

Mercer nodded: "Okay, let's go then."

After much deliberation, they decided not to bring it along, since it wasn't a big deal and they'd be back in the time it takes to eat a meal.

Holding Asia's hand, they arrived at the naval base in the blink of an eye, where they saw that they were already ready to board the warship.

Mather shook his head, then sensed the location of New Onigashima. With a thought, Kaido was instantly teleported there, enveloped in space.

Upon arriving here, Kaido, who had been looking around blankly, suddenly became serious.

Many old friends are here.

Moses laughed and said, "I'm a man of my word. So, let me ask you this: are you going to Mary Geoise?"

Kaido grinned maliciously, "Oh ho ho ho, how could I possibly be absent from such a grand event?"

At this moment, Moses looked at Kaido with a slightly surprised expression, "The Azure Dragon Fruit has awakened."

Kaido's eyes flashed, and he curled his lip:

"You're really mysterious, kid. So, the Life Source Breathing Technique that appeared in my consciousness after the fruit awakened was also your doing, right?"
By the way, aren't you taking my precious daughter with you to this war?

Without explanation, Moses led the two onto Garp's warship, then looked back at Zephyr and the others on the other warship:

"Come on over, one ship will suffice. Our goal is to kill the Celestial Dragons of Mary Geoise."

It's not about launching a Buster Call.

Furthermore, your warships can't reach Mary Geoise either.

Zefa and the others looked embarrassed and quickly used Moonwalk to get onto the warship.

Seeing that all the high-level combatants were present,

Moses laughed and said, "Then let's go."

The warship beneath him was enveloped by spatial power.

Whoosh! In an instant.

The warships blocked the entrance.

Looking at the magnificent and opulent city of Pangaea in Mary Geoise before me.

Moses looked at them and smiled faintly, "I'm going to meet that World King Im. You go and execute the Celestial Dragons."

As soon as he finished speaking, his figure vanished in a flash, arriving inside Pangu City.

Sensing a garden located deep within the Pangu City, where an incredibly powerful being resides.

The next moment, Moses arrived among the flowers.

Looking at the tall, young figure in a black gauze dress who had turned to face him, Moses chuckled softly:
"Are you called Im?"
