I reached the top of Pirates

Chapter 327, Section 326: Three Hundred Years Later!

Hancock turned and stepped into the Eclipse Gate.

Jelf came to Mercer's side and together they looked at the spacetime vortex inside the Eclipse Gate.

Consciousness disappeared into the spacetime vortex.
Mercer sensed that they were traversing the future in a directed manner through the river of time.

a moment,
In the long river of time, Messer clearly sensed that Erii's spacetime fluctuations flashed by and she deliberately broke away from the main group.

And it created a ripple.

It's like a pebble being dropped into a calm lake.

Uncertainty has arisen.

A slight smile curved the corners of Messer's lips. Just as he expected, Erii hadn't said goodbye. So she was waiting for him here.

In Moses's perception, her figure disappeared into the river of time, and he deduced the events in his mind.

"Can you influence the river of time by using the concept of space and time, and arrive at different points in time ahead of schedule?"

Did it arrive a century earlier than expected?

Messer's eyes shimmered with a hazy silver-gray light, and fluctuations in spacetime emanated from his body as he gazed into the future.

"Fortunately, the landing location was correct, and we did not go to a parallel world."

Mercer shook his head, looking at Robin and the others who were upstream in the river of time, whose arrival time had been brought forward by the ripples in the river of time.

"It's alright, there's nothing seriously wrong."

Fortunately, Anna and her companions entered the Eclipse Gate in advance, so it didn't affect them much.

Mercer pointed to the spacetime vortex in front of him, and the power of spacetime surged in, instantly smoothing out the spacetime ripples that would appear in the future.

It won't affect Anna, Natsu, or the others.

And as the gates of the future eclipse opened, they also traveled to the future on time.

At that moment, the gate to the eclipse slowly closed, and everything became calm.

Jelf quickly looked at Mercer, his eyes filled with worry, "What happened?"

"Well, one of my mischievous kids caused a bit of trouble. But it's not a big deal, Natsu and the others have completely arrived in the future."

Jelf breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this, while Moses shook his head and said, "That's settled then. The rest of the matters concerning the eclipse are yours to handle; I won't get involved."

As soon as he finished speaking, Moses disappeared.

Jelf opened his mouth, his expression turning helpless.

"I was thinking of traveling the continent with you, so why did you leave without a word?"

In the blink of an eye.

Mercer returned to the Dragon Garden in the Kingdom of Dorakunov.

When Belser saw Mercer approaching, he asked softly, "Has Irene left?"

"Yes, she's gone, gone to the future."

Moses looked at the lone dragon in front of him and asked, "Have you decided where you're going by then?"

Bercelion fell silent for a moment, then spoke:

"You said the future will be the era of mages. What do you think about me starting a mage guild?"

"Yeah, sure."

Mercer chuckled lightly, and Belserion looked up at Mercer and said in a somber tone:

"Are you leaving too?"

As he spoke, a magic circle appeared on his body.

Under the divine magical glow.

Bercelion's body shrank.

He transformed into a muscular, middle-aged man with medium-length, silver-gray hair.

Primal Magic. Human Transformation.

Mercer nodded: "There's nothing here that I care about anymore, and our contract has ended. It's time to continue my journey."

"I see. Then we'll have to say goodbye until we meet again."

Bercelion said, and Moses nodded, "Goodbye."

With a flash, he disappeared from the spot, and Belserion's expression fell silent.

"Mysterious guy."

……

The inner universe.

Origin Star.

On the vast land, there are primeval and dense forests, where all kinds of life born from innate origins live.

The air and nature are filled with a rich cosmic energy.
Through years of natural evolution, and catalyzed by the occasional appearance of primordial fruits on the planet, more and more powerful life forms have begun to emerge.

Mercer embodies nature, sensing the various primordial forces.

The concept manifests in the origin star.

but.

The inner sea of ​​stars.

Mercer appeared here and merged into the World Tree, controlling it through his own authority.

He began a long period of spiritual practice.

The entire inner universe is under one's control, and the flow of time is also controlled by oneself.

The time flow on this planet is the same as that of the Fairy Tail world outside.

However, the time flow rate of the pirate stars inside is different, with an astonishing ratio of one day to one year.

Concepts converge, powers are woven together.

Spring passes and autumn comes.

A variety of entirely new powers were successfully woven together and then integrated into the world's powers.

Mercer is taking "slow" but firm steps toward omnipotence.

After transforming into an immortal being, the concept of time unconsciously became blurred for Moses.

Swimming in the ocean of original concepts,

Three hundred years have passed in the blink of an eye.

As time went by, more and more powers were successfully woven, all through practice and skill, and the efficiency of the powers also became highly efficient.

[Powers: World (350/3000)]

A certain time point that I had set in my mind has arrived.

He opened his eyes from within the World Tree, a faint indifference flashing across his face.

Then it became quiet again.

"Three hundred years! This is the first time in my life that I have undergone such a long period of cultivation."

Appearing beside the World Tree, Mercer walked among the lush, colorful flowers of the Starry Sea.

The Sea of ​​Stars

It consists of the World Tree, villas, and a sea of ​​flowers.

Back inside the villa, although no one had lived there for three hundred years, it remained unchanged from the past.

He sat on the sofa, grabbed a bottle of wine, bit off the cork, and took a big gulp.

The next instant, a portal of light opened in front of him, and Mercer arrived on a peach mountain.

Standing atop the mountain, one can gaze upon the bustling scene within the Eternal Ark in the distance.

After more than a decade of development within the Pirate Star, this place has become incredibly prosperous.

"Huh?" Just then, a black and white ball appeared before them, and Xiong Bao grinned broadly.
"It's been over a year since we last met. Are you still in that magical world?"

Moses picked two peaches and threw one over.

He took a big bite of the peach in his hand, looked at Xiong Bao, and smiled:

"Long time no see. How have you been?"

Sitting on the ground under the peach tree, Xiong Bao frowned and sat down next to Messer.

"What's wrong with you? You seem to be missing something."

Mercer shook his head without explaining; he had simply become stronger over time.

Moses raised an eyebrow and said, "You went to Elephant Island with Bepo before, didn't you see any female bears you liked?"

Xiong Bao rolled his eyes and said speechlessly:
“Bears aren’t interested in them. The only things that can capture a bear’s attention in this world are delicious food and strength.” Mercer smiled, sensing a familiar presence approaching from afar. Crow Da Bao flew over and landed beside Mercer.

"Mei, when did you arrive?"

"I just arrived. By the way, did you successfully cultivate the primordial magic I taught you before?"

"Yes, it's already been successful."

Ya Dabao complained.

Moses stroked his chin. "In that case, you can come with me to the magical world outside."

Ya Dabao's eyes lit up, and he chuckled, "That's great! I've been wanting to go out and play for a while now. Oh, right, didn't Peipei and the others already go?"

Mercer nodded. "Yes."

Ya Dabao looked at Messer and said with a smirk, "By the way, Uta's world tour is coming to its final show. Aren't you going to go see her?"

"By the way, she's been calling us nonstop lately, but we just can't get in touch with you."

With his senses projected outward, Mercer instantly detected Uta's presence at the concert venue on the Eternal Ark.

A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

After seeing this, Ya Dabao said, "You know that girl all these years, her most important concerts are basically all held here."

Moses nodded. "Yes,"

Ya Dabao looked helpless, but it wasn't entirely incomprehensible. Of all the women in the family, only Uta had family, so...
I haven't been with others for a long time.

but,

Don't you miss her?

Upon hearing his words, Mercer smiled faintly and said, "With my power over time, seeing her in my world is just a matter of a thought."

“That makes sense,” Ya Dabao said belatedly. “For you, you are omnipotent in this world.”

"Your essential alter ego is also located here."

"Go and call your little girl, let's go to the magical world outside and see that naughty one."

Ya Dabao flapped his wings and took off.

……

"It feels just like the environment in One Piece."

Five figures—one person, one panda, and two crows—arrived at Aslant.

Ya Dabao pondered, "But is this magic? It doesn't seem to be on the same level as source power."

Xiong Bao laughed:

"Of course! If mere magic power could compare to source power, then what's the point of us striving to cultivate?"

This is the continent of Ishgar.

Mercer sensed the external force and looked to his left.

In the distant sky, there was an invisible rift from which dense spatial and temporal energy surged forth.

Meanwhile, in that direction, a figure appeared in the forest.

But in the next moment, Moses's senses collided.

Immediately afterward, Mercer turned and opened his arms, and in the next instant, a perfect, delicate body was drawn into his embrace.
Long, strong, and delicate legs wrapped around Mercer's waist, and arms encircled Mercer's neck.

He lifted her upturned buttocks with one hand and wrapped the other arm around her back, looking at the girl in front of him.

Erii chuckled and tilted her head, acting cute:

"I knew it. When I came to the future, you would definitely come to pick me up, brother."

"I'm clever, aren't I? By the way, brother, how many years has it been since we separated?"

"Three hundred years. It is now the year X677."

Erii leaned forward and kissed Messe's lips. A few seconds later, her eyes gleamed with the smile of someone who had stolen a treasure.

"So, does that mean I really did arrive 100 years early?"

Mercer nodded, and Erii kissed him again, replenishing his mana and exchanging bodily fluids.

a long time,

Erii looked at Messer and said with a grin:
"Brother, how have you lived these past three hundred years? I really want to know."

Mercer nodded and explained to her. After a while, Erii suddenly understood.
So it turns out my brother has spent so many years cultivating himself.

What an awesome look.

The three of them, including Xiong Bao, watched Messer subtly through the brief exchange between Messer and Erii.

"Have you been living alone for three hundred years?"

Xiong Bao looked at him with admiration and said, "You can endure all of this? Don't you feel lonely all by yourself?"

Mercer laughed and said, "I don't think weaving power is very interesting."

Besides, once you reach my level, you'll naturally understand that 300 years is nothing more than a fleeting moment.

Erii wrapped her arms around Messe's neck, rested her head on Messe's left shoulder, and said affectionately:
"I haven't seen Erii for three hundred years, brother, did you miss me?"

Mercer patted his shapely buttocks and chuckled:

"What do you think?"

Erii's lips curled into a pleased smile:

"Me too. Even if we only consider the time we spent physically, my brother and I were only separated for ten minutes."

Holding the girl in his arms, Moses looked at them and said:
"Let's talk as we go, even though this era is still not very prosperous."

But it's not bad, really.

Before long, they arrived at a town.

Mercer pulled Erii along, while Da Bao and Xiao Niu used magic to change their size and stood on Mercer and Xiong Bao's shoulders respectively.

Yes, Bear Cub's size has now also been magically transformed to be the same height as Mercer, truly a return to its natural state.

Walking along the bustling streets, sensing the local situation, I held some local snacks I had bought on the street.

"Is this the Magic Guild?"

Upon arriving at the town center, a church-like building came into view.

"Magic Guild, Gray Lizard".

I led them through the main entrance. It was quite noisy inside, but then a middle-aged man behind the bar directly opposite the entrance looked over and smiled:
"What brings you here? Are you here to join our guild, or to post a quest?"
"By the way, I'm the guild master here, Ghost Doctor Lenab."

A flash of magical light appeared in Moses's hand, and a bag of gold coins appeared on the bar.

"I'm issuing a quest: tell me about the current situation on the continent of Ishgar."

Lynab opened the bag and his eyes widened in surprise. These were valuable gold coins, which would be considered antiques today.
"Are you really going to use these gold coins as payment? If you exchange them for 'J' coins, you could get millions of J coins."

"Ah."

Seeing Moses's calm demeanor, Lennox smiled and nodded.
"Then I'll take this task and tell you about it."

A short while later, Moses led them away from there.

On the continent of Ishgar today, there are several kingdoms, with the Kingdom of Fiore at the center, and magic guilds springing up like bamboo shoots, with one in almost every city.

In this day and age, dragons either lie dormant or transform into humans and live in seclusion within human society.

Primal magic is prevalent.

However, figures like the Magic Emperor, the Scarlet Annihilation Queen, and the Dark Mage have all become legends.

Rumors circulated that they were either dead, living in seclusion, or had disappeared from the world.

According to ancient tradition, when one cultivates primordial magic to a certain level, one's life level will undergo a fundamental transformation.

Therefore, many people believe that ancient beings like the Magic Emperor must live in some unknown place.

"Brother, this era has indeed become more interesting, just as you said."

"Will our magic guild still be created?"

Mercer shook his head and laughed, "It's too troublesome. Let them create it after they arrive."

Erii covered her mouth and chuckled, "Then let's avoid them when the time comes. I think that will be very interesting."

"sure."

Mercer chuckled, while Ya Da Bao, standing to the side, looked speechless: "What happened to you two? Where's the fun?"

Mercer looked at Ya Da Bao and smiled:
"By the way, Da Bao, how about we start another magic newspaper here?"

Ya Dabao's eye twitched. "Are you really going to do this?"

"Well, that's up to you."
