“Akainu, you’re not happy, are you?”

On a warship, Garp pressed Akainu’s shoulder and asked him.

Akainu’s brow furrowed tightly. He almost couldn’t control his temper. Akainu had also come to Sabaody Archipelago earlier and watched as Shin’s Kuja Pirates left.

“Whether you’re happy or not doesn’t matter. This was Sengoku’s order. If I don’t do a good job, Sengoku won’t let me off easily.”

Garp said with a yawn.

Recently, Garp had been keeping a close eye on Akainu—to prevent him from taking any action.

If Akainu did anything, Sengoku would definitely hold him accountable.

Garp was afraid Sengoku would put him under house arrest. If he got locked up in Marineford and wasn’t allowed to leave, how the hell was he supposed to visit his grandson??

“Brat. If you want to throw a tantrum, take it up with Sengoku.”

Then, Garp displayed his talent—the talent of sleeping while standing.

Don’t let Garp’s napping fool you—if Akainu actually tried something, he’d be wide awake in a heartbeat.

Akainu gave Garp a deep look, then ordered the warship to turn back. He knew that with Garp around, he couldn’t do anything.

So Akainu didn’t waste any more time here…

————

Shin and his crew made it back to Amazon Lily without a hitch. Honestly, even if Akainu had attacked, it would’ve been a suicide mission.

“Elder Nyon is really making a grand affair of this.”

Shin stood on the bow of the ship. He could already see Elder Nyon leading people to welcome them—and it was the entire population of Amazon Lily.

“Elder Nyon, long time no see.”

Shin looked at Elder Nyon with a faint smile and said.

Elder Nyon grinned from ear to ear. She had made the right bet.

Back then, she had let Shin Uzumaki become the captain of the Kuja Pirates—and now the Kuja Pirates had become a Yonko pirate crew.

It could be said that this was the best bet Elder Nyon had ever made. She could boast about it for the rest of her life.

Afterward, they followed Elder Nyon to the Amazon Lily palace, and then Elder Nyon called Hancock away.

About two hours later, Hancock returned.

“What did Elder Nyon want with you?” Shin asked Hancock with some curiosity.

“It’s like this. Elder Nyon wants me to succeed her as the Empress of the Amazon Lily,” Hancock replied, a hint of reluctance on her face.

“Isn’t that a good thing? Why the long face?” Robin asked.

“Becoming the Empress of Amazon Lily means I’d have to run the whole country—and I’m just not up for that.”

Hancock’s main concern was that she wouldn’t be able to go out to sea with Shin.

“If you don’t want to handle it yourself, just delegate—someone like Elder Nyon could take care of it.”

Olvia suggested to Hancock.

Suddenly—

“THAT’S RIGHT!” Hancock’s eyes lit up, but then she shook her head.

“I’m not interested in being the Empress of Amazon Lily. I just want to stay by Shin’s side. Honestly, it’d be nice if he became the Emperor instead.”

Hancock’s eyes lit up slightly. If Shin could become the emperor, then she could consider the position of Empress.

Shin raised his hand and stroked Hancock’s soft hair.

“Don’t let Elder Nyon’s good intentions go to waste. Even if you become the Empress, it’s not like you can’t go out to sea. Your title will be even more famous then,” Shin said to Hancock.

“Since Shin said so, then okay.” Hancock nodded.

Knowing that Hancock had agreed, Elder Nyon was ecstatic and immediately prepared to hold the succession ceremony.

Though Amazon Lily wasn’t a vast nation—proper etiquette was still a must.

————

“Thank you, Shin.” Elder Nyon specifically found Shin and thanked him.

Elder Nyon knew that if not for Shin’s persuasion, Hancock might not have been willing to become the Empress of Amazon Lily.

“No need to thank me. Elder Nyon—you’ve also helped me a lot.” Shin said with a smile.

“Compared to the help I’ve given, it’s nothing compared to how much you’ve helped Amazon Lily. Without you, Amazon Lily would just be an average small island.”

At this point, even the Marines didn’t dare make a move on Amazon Lily—and the World Government stayed silent too. You could say they were at the height of their power.

“By the way, Shin, there’s something I need to tell you.”

Elder Nyon suddenly became serious.

“A year ago, something strange happened on Amazon Lily. At the very spot where you first showed up—a woman appeared out of nowhere.”

“The place where I first appeared?”

Shin’s eyes narrowed slightly. Was it related to his transmigration to this world?

“Where is that woman now?” Shin asked Elder Nyon.

“That woman is still on Amazon Lily. She hasn’t left…” Elder Nyon said to Shin.

She had suddenly appeared on Amazon Lily—and even if she wanted to leave, Elder Nyon wouldn’t allow it. So, for the time being, she was kept under watch. No matter how much she wanted to go, with Elder Nyon refusing to let her, she had no way off the island.

“Then bring her to me.” Shin nodded.

Elder Nyon immediately went to make arrangements.

————

After a while, a stunningly beautiful woman was brought over, her looks not inferior to Hancock, Olvia, and the others.

“What’s your name?”

Shin’s gaze was fixed on this woman. Not because she was so beautiful, but because Shin wanted to confirm her identity. In the original story, such a plot shouldn’t have happened. Could this woman also be a transmigrator?

“My name is Amatsuki Toki.”

She didn’t try to hide anything—directly stating her name.

“Amatsuki Toki… WAIT, YOU’RE AMATSUKI TOKI??” Shin looked at her, a flicker of surprise in his eyes—she was actually Amatsuki Toki.

She had eaten the Time-Time Fruit—an ability that let her travel into the future, but not return to the past. She could also send others forward in time.

In the original story, she was Kozuki Oden’s wife, Kozuki Momonosuke’s mother.

————

“You know me??”

Amatsuki Toki was a bit surprised.

Logically, people of this era shouldn’t know her…

“How did you travel to this point in time?” Shin asked Amatsuki Toki.

Kozuki Oden had been dead for seven or eight years. Amatsuki Toki had only traveled here now—Amatsuki Toki should have traveled more than a dozen years later.

“You know my ability?”

Amatsuki Toki became vigilant. From Shin’s words, Amatsuki Toki realized he already knew about her ability. But did he also know her true identity? Could he really be someone who had lived for eight hundred years… all the way to the present?

“Right now, I’m the one asking the questions—not you.” Shin said coldly. His icy tone made Amatsuki Toki’s body tremble.

Amatsuki Toki gritted her teeth. Her strength was nothing to scoff at—but standing before this man, Amatsuki Toki felt utterly powerless.

“I am a Time-Time Fruit user. When I was traveling through time, an accident happened, and then I appeared here.” Toki Amatsuki said in compromise.
