Yukong immediately understood: "I send a letter with a kite to send off the sorrowful traveler, for there is still someone who has not returned home in the distant land."
I even used a kite to amuse Tōun when he was a child... Mr. Iwaaki was very thoughtful...
"I heard that in fox folk customs, paper warblers are used to comfort the souls of pilots who can no longer take to the skies," Yanming explained to the train crew. "Although Tingyun and I aren't true pilots, we've spent our lives interacting with the starry sky."
"I think she would be very happy if I could make Tingyun fly again."
[Yukong's voice trembled slightly, but he had nothing to say.]
[The three of them stood in formation, ready to place the offerings on the Star Raft.]
"This time, we don't have to compete with each other. Let's go, fly to a more distant world." Mr. Yanming released the kite.
Sanyueqi served the dishes brought from Yancui. "This is a gift from Miss Yancui on behalf of the merchants in Jinren Lane. You're sure to like it."
"This is the tea Miss Mengming prepared for you, named after you." Old Yang respectfully presented a pot of fragrant tea with both hands.
"Thank you for everything you've done for the Tianbo Division and Luofu. This small seal is the cornerstone of the prosperity of the Immortal Boat." Yukong held the ferryman's seal and reluctantly placed it on the ship.
"Tingyun, the Tianbo Division will never forget you... I will find out the truth. If you are killed, I will avenge you."
Everyone watched the star raft resting on the clouds. It was about to fly towards an unknown star and eventually disappear in its glow.
[Whether one lives a long or short life, this will be the destination for everyone.]

One Piece World.
Looking at the kite brought by Mr. Iwaaki, Robin felt a lot of emotions.
This small kite really connects Yukong and Tingyun.
One is an ace pilot who once dominated the starry sky.
One is a famous ferryman in the merchant universe.
This is precisely because fox people are good at flying and have unique appearances, which makes them perfect for this kind of job.
It was really appropriate to use a kite to commemorate Tingyun - what's more, it actually brought up Yukong's past.
Looking at Yukong's attitude towards Tingyun, if Robin hadn't known first that Qingni was Yukong's daughter, he would have really thought that Tingyun was Yukong's daughter!
Of course, the fox clan is said to have a lifespan of 300-400 years, and Yukong is already quite old at his current age.
To put it bluntly, the countdown has begun.
But Tingyun seems to be able to live for another hundred or two hundred years... The age difference between the two is immediately apparent.
So, when Yukong retired from the army and joined the Tianbo Division, Tingyun was indeed still young. Yukong took Tingyun on the Star Raft and flew kites in the sky. This should be a beautiful memory of that time.
However, the person is gone, and the past will slowly fade away in memory.
Thinking of this, Robin began to write furiously!
Although we are in different time and space, our hearts are connected!
Recording the stories of Miss Tingyun and Miss Yukong is also a form of commemoration!
·····
"The time has come for the memorial service. Everyone, we'll meet at the Xingcha Sea's carriage platform."
[Everyone left the ferry and went to the platform to watch the funeral ceremony.]
【The time for comforting the soul has arrived, and the funeral ceremony begins.】
Yukong stood on a high platform, gazing up at the azure sky. A gentle breeze blew past, and his clothes fluttered, like a fallen leaf clinging to a tree branch.
The Star Rafts set in motion, accompanied by a gentle crackling sound. Thousands of Star Rafts, bearing the names of the deceased, like silent shooting stars, sailed towards the Jade Realm Gate at the edge of the sky. Silence reigned, save for the silent gaze of those departing souls.
[People gathered here to bid farewell to the deceased silently...]
【Finally, the Starship disappeared, and the memorial ceremony ended.】
Jing Yuan's injuries hadn't healed yet, but he insisted on coming to see the train crew.
He gently pushed away Yan Qing's hand, trying to stop him, and walked towards the group on the train—he still had something to say, something he had to say.
"Before you leave Luofu, I have two things I want to give to the Star Train."
"A gift? Has he finally found his conscience and wants to compensate us for all the hard work we've put in along the way?" This surprised San Yue Qi.
[Having just finished attending a funeral, Xing was a bit confused.]
Sanyueqi, Xing, Lao Yang, and Dan Heng, who came to attend the funeral, all four of them arrived at the Shen Ce Mansion.
Jing Yuan, representing the Luofu Cloud Cavalry, presented the train crew with a jade omen symbolizing "alliance."
Old Yang looked at the table, wondering to himself... A pair of matching jade talismans... This shape looks so much like a tiger talisman?
[Xinghe March 7th may not know, but Lao Yang certainly does! ]
·····
One Piece World.
After Fujitora knew what happened in the light curtain, he couldn't help but be shocked!
Although I can't see, it seems that I can directly feel the image on the light screen, which is no different from seeing it.
It turned out that he had vaguely felt it when he listened to Fu Xuan's words.
Fu Xuan said it lightly, but the thing that Xianzhou gave to the train crew couldn't be light!
When Fujitora saw the tiger talisman on the table through Lao Yang's gaze... he understood!
Xianzhou really spent a lot of money this time!
Of course, the statement of spending a huge amount of money is not quite accurate. After all, Xianzhou does not want to bribe the train crew or anything.
In fact, the train crew's behavior this time is indeed worthy of being an ally of Xianzhou.
After all, according to Jing Yuan's own words, if there was no train set, they would lose a special force...it would be hard to say what would happen to the star core chaos.
You saved my life, and if you are in trouble in the future, I will also save your life... However, the fairy boat may mobilize the entire cloud cavalry... the scale is different.
It can be said that the gift is small but the sentiment is great.
However, Fujitora felt that Jingyuan still had other ideas.
In this incident, although Huanlong is from the Antimatter Corps...
But according to Kafka, there are actually undercurrents behind the scenes, and the Star God War may be gradually taking shape from now on.
Although the Xianzhou Alliance is not the one who decides the balance of power in the universe, it certainly does not want to be affected...
At this time, if you can win over one more ally, you will have more security strength.
If everyone can unite and survive, that would naturally be the best...
It seems that the leaders of the Immortal Boat are still quite capable of taking responsibility - but they are not like the World Government.
Since the Battle of Marineford, the navy has been short of manpower, and Fujitora has just enlisted.
But after joining the navy, he found that it was really a mess...
The Navy, the World Government... Rather than maintaining peace at sea, they are more likely to be muddying the waters...
It really can't be compared with the fairy boat!
Chapter 207: The sky is clear and the road is long (9): Fujitora: Are there any other experts?
"Thousands of years ago, when the alliance was founded, all the immortal ships swore an oath together, inscribed on the Jade Omen Covenant as a witness. Even if heaven and earth were to fall, this oath would remain unchanged."
"This jade omen is similar. It records Luo Fu Yunqi's promise to the train group. It also serves as a beacon. Hold it tightly, and it will send a message to the paired jade omen in my hand."
"No matter how vast the Milky Way is, or how long the journey is, the Luofu Cloud Riders will rush to meet the train and fulfill your trust."
"Wow, this gift is really worth a lot of money." Sanyueqi exclaimed.
[“Uh… Of course…” Jing Yuan was stunned. It seems these kids don’t quite understand the meaning of this beacon? ……]
"...Please don't misuse something so important for trivial matters or things that go against the alliance. Do you all understand this?" Jing Yuan looked at Lao Yang, who understood.
"Thank you for your kindness, General." Old Yang also expressed his gratitude.
After explaining all this, Jing Yuan breathed a sigh of relief and went back to recuperate.
[Xinghe Sanyueqi planned to go to Xingchahai for a stroll, and everyone dispersed on the spot.]
【However, after a while...】
[Immortal prison.]
[The soles of his boots tread on the cold bluestone slabs of the prison.]
[“Da, da…”]
In the dead silence, the sound of footsteps echoed alone, beating on the tense nerves. Each step carried an unsettling aftertaste that could not be ignored.
The relaxed atmosphere in the Divine Strategy Palace hadn't yet dissipated, but the Prison of Desolation suddenly plunged into an icy cave.
Jing Yuan put his hands behind his back, lowered his eyes to look at the blond figure a few steps away, his tone was calm, but as heavy as a rock——
"Anyone who enters this place is either a jailer or a prisoner." Which one are you?"
"Hmph." Luosha's usual smile played on his lips, and out of the corner of his eye he glanced at the Cloud Cavalry soldiers approaching silently from behind.
His tone remained calm: "Neither. I am just a lost traveler."
Jing Yuan slowly descended the stairs and passed by Luosha, each step carrying an invisible pressure.
“What a grand occasion!”
[“The star core, Jianmu’s resurrection, the secret teachings of the Medicine King, the illusion of the Lord of Extinction…” He deliberately slowed down his speech, each word clear, “This series of earth-shattering threats came one after another, and it almost—”]
He suddenly stopped in front of Luosha. "—and succeeded in making everyone forget that seemingly insignificant issue!"
[Before he finished speaking, a sharp sound of breaking through the air suddenly rang out!]
[In Jing Yuan's empty palm, brilliance instantly condensed. The renowned formation sword appeared out of thin air——]
