I'm at the top of One Piece

Robin's smile widened even more: "You know what? They're also huge fans of the Magic Emperor. Uru's greatest admiration is for the Magic Emperor who saved their ancestors from the dragon four hundred years ago and taught them the primordial magic."

Fate is truly a wonderful thing.

Mercer chuckled and shook his head, reaching out to gently pinch her delicate nose and rub the tip:

"To me, he was just a stranger I met once and who casually passed on some magic to me."

For me, the purpose of teaching them magic back then was simply to make the magic world more exciting today.

I just hope it will give me some inspiration.

Hearing this, Robin burst out laughing: "Hahaha, then you're going to be disappointed. You know what? The original magic you inherited is mostly lost magic in this magical age."

Moses raised an eyebrow. "So?"

“Not so!” Robin laughed. “Because after the Age of Dragons, humans had no natural enemies, so after about a hundred years of peace, they fell into a war of magic.”

Because of the power of primal magic, it has become a strategic resource that all parties are vying for.

Many vulnerable groups of mages were wiped out.

Many primal runes and primal spells have become fragmented and lost with each war. Even the Mildian Magic Academy, now a magical mecca in the Western Continent, experienced a rebellion. Some primal runes, already difficult to learn, have vanished into the annals of history.

At this point, Robin looked at Moses with amusement, "Because of the power of primal magic, the intensity of the war has undoubtedly become even greater."

Some even felt that it would have been better if the ancient magic emperors hadn't spread primordial magic so widely.

Mercer's eyes were serene, like a deep, mysterious sea, revealing no emotion whatsoever.

At this moment, Erii spoke up: "So what? Anyway, my brother has never cared about such things."

Could their discontent possibly influence their brother's decision?

Erii said this as a matter of course, and Robin agreed, "It's just that I get annoyed when I hear these kinds of comments. I wouldn't even say a harsh word to my own Messe, so how dare they gossip about me? I really want to punch those people to pieces."

"You agree, right, Moses?"

Robin blinked and chuckled. Mercer rolled her eyes at her and said, "Seriously, I can now use the power of existence to influence the river of time, making the existence of the primordial runes unknown to anyone."

In this way, primal magic will become true lost magic.

But after thinking about it, I decided against it.

To me, they are as insignificant as Erii said.

Makino smiled and said, "Since they're unimportant, let's not talk about them anymore, so as not to affect your mood."

As they spoke, a cocktail of blood red and cyan was served.

"Come and try it! My new drink is a classic red and blue combination, it's so delicious!"

"Then I'll have to try it."

Mercer took it, sipped it lightly, and found it refreshing with a hint of spiciness. It had a perfect balance of sweet, sour, bitter, and spicy flavors, leaving a lingering aftertaste.

Makino sat behind the bar, resting her chin on her hand, a smile on her face:

Do you like it?

Moses looked at her and smiled. "What do you think?"

Makino rolled her eyes at Messer, then laughed even more happily: "Then I'll assume you like it."

Savoring the various wines offered by Marcino, offering their opinions and comments.

Magino smiled as he looked at Mercer. Indeed, only when Mercer was here did this feel like home.

At that moment, Kureha walked in from outside carrying a bottle of liquor, plopped down next to Erii, and said to Makino:

"A Bloody Mary."

Makino nodded with a smile: "Just woke up? Would you like something to eat?"

Kureha yawned and nodded: "I've been studying potions all night. Magic is indeed interesting."

He then looked at Moses with displeasure and said, "You come back and don't even come to greet me."

Mercer rolled her eyes at her. "Well, that's what happens when you're always holed up in the castle, working your ass off."

Kureha said speechlessly, "What's it to you?"

Mercer nodded and smiled, "That's right, we have plenty of time, so we don't need to work so hard on our research."

Kureha's eyes rolled back, "I'm willing."

Moses was helpless.

Kureha got up, came over, and ruffled Messer's hair, chuckling softly:

"Have you missed your old mother all these years?"

Mercer sighed helplessly, "Of course, how could I not miss you?"

"You pass."

Kureha chuckled.

The group of people were drinking and chatting.

Time passed day by day, and another half month later, Hancock and the others returned.

In the blink of an eye.

Six years later.

this day,

July 7, X777.

In the morning, at a castle located within the Fiore Palace.

The group arrived at a huge, ancient door.

Gate of the Solar Eclipse.

With the arrival of this generation's Leila Heartfilia, due to an accident, only eleven golden keys were collected and inlaid into the doorway with a magical incantation.

Golden light shines brightly.

Leila's face turned pale instantly.

The missing Aquarius key was replaced with his own magic, but even with the enormous amount of magic consumed, it was still not enough, and his life force began to drain away.

at the same time.

The gates of the solar eclipse were slowly opened.

On the tower not far away, Moses sat on the edge of the tower watching the blonde beauty below open the door.

Jeff, who had also arrived and was standing nearby, smiled and spoke:

"Natsu, he's coming."

"And, Mercer, it's been so long. Four hundred years. You haven't changed at all."

Mercer laughed, "Aren't you the same, Zeref? But you've gotten a lot stronger."

Jelf's eyes are filled with remembrance:

"With four hundred years of accumulation, even a pig could transform into a dragon pig. Besides, I'm no less capable."

At that moment, the Gate of Eclipse opened, and five streams of light flew out from inside the gate, disappearing into the sky in the blink of an eye.

Immediately, a blonde Anna dressed in a magic robe stepped out.

He stared blankly at the blonde woman in front of him who looked about 70% like him.

Listening to their interesting conversation.

Seeing this, Mercer's lips curled into a smile. He flicked his finger, and spatial ripples spread outwards. A streak of light that had already reached the horizon flew back.

It floated beside Mercer and transformed into a cute little girl of about five years old with dark blue hair.

Jeff, standing to the side, looked surprised and was about to speak when...

A ripple of time spread across Mercer's body, pointing towards the blonde beauty below. Instantly, the timeline of Leila's body, not far below, was refreshed.

Her physical condition returned to what it was before she opened the door, and all the energy she had used to open the door was replenished.

Leila stared in astonishment at her outstretched hands, then looked blankly at her ancestor before her.

"Did you use magic to replenish my lost magic power and life force?"

Anna looked at Leila, her junior, with a blank expression, and sensed the time fluctuations emanating from Leila.

A vague sense of familiarity with magic arose, and following the direction, I looked up at the two figures on the tower not far away.

With a look of surprise, he said, "Magic Emperor Mercer, Dark Mage Zeref."

Leila turned around in surprise to look in that direction, but saw nothing.

He asked blankly, "Why was there only one person at our ancestor's place?"

Anna glanced at Leila and said helplessly, "It's those two important figures. It seems that even after four hundred years, they are still as impressive as ever."

You can't see him because the Magic Emperor probably doesn't want you to see him.

But we're really lucky; the Magic Emperor is here to heal you.

Leila, thank you.

Leila asked curiously, "How did you know it was the Magic Emperor who healed me?"

Anna's eyes flashed with longing as she said:

"Legend has it that the Magic Emperor Mercer has mastered all the magic in the world. He is omnipotent and knows everything."

Leila asked blankly:

"But if he is omnipotent, why doesn't he destroy that legendary world-destroying black dragon?"

Anna smiled wryly and said, "I don't know either. Maybe Black Dragon is just too strong."

Listening to the conversation below, Jelf, with a hint of resentment in his eyes, whispered:

"Messer, you're so unfair! You didn't even bring Natsu along."

Moses pouted and said, "Can't you do it yourself?"
