Chapter 335: Caroline, the Goddess of the Sky
Splash!
On the calm sea, white waves began to rise and crash against the hull of the Liberty.
As night fell, strong sea winds began to rise on the ocean. The weather along the Grand Line was unpredictable, with no distinction between day and night; a storm could strike at any moment.
call!call!call!
However, despite the strong sea breeze, the night sky, shrouded in darkness, still revealed a multitude of stars and a crescent moon radiating a bright, clear light.
After dinner on the Freedom, everyone except the eight crew members who were responsible for operating the Freedom returned to the lounge and fell asleep.
At this moment, on the bow of the Freedom, Mu Chong sat motionless, his white robe fluttering in the sea breeze, yet nothing could shake him.
"captain!"
Just then, Caroline, draped in a thick robe, slowly approached Mu Chong from behind and softly called out.
"Hmm? It's Caroline! Why aren't you asleep yet? Is there something you need?"
Hearing someone speak behind him, Mu Chong turned around and saw Caroline standing gracefully on the deck, her long white hair fluttering in the wind.
"Hmm! Nothing much! I saw you sitting here all by yourself, so I came over to check on you!"
Caroline raised her right hand and gently brushed a strand of white hair from her forehead, appearing somewhat reserved in her movements and tone of voice.
"Hmm? Hehehe! Something on your mind? Come on! I don't have any good ideas for developing my abilities right now, so how about we chat?"
Mu Chong's Observation Haki clearly detected Caroline's emotional change. He then shifted his body slightly, pointed to the empty seat next to him, and said to Caroline...
"Ok!"
Upon hearing Mu Chong's words, Caroline paused visibly for a moment, but then nodded readily, went to the bow of the ship, and sat down next to Mu Chong.
"Are you cold? The sea breeze is quite strong tonight! I thought you were all asleep! I was sitting here all by myself, working on my Devil Fruit! It's always Mumu who keeps me company, I didn't expect you to come today!"
Mu Chong reached out to help Caroline straighten her robe, making her more securely wrapped, and then calmly began to speak.
"Yeah! I know! I did run into Mumu when I came out just now! I was the one who told him to go back! You have a beautiful woman with you tonight! Are you happy?"
Caroline made no attempt to avoid Mu Chong adjusting her clothes; in fact, she smiled at him.
"Huh? Hahaha! I'm happy! Of course I'm happy! You don't know! When Mumu is with me, he just sleeps here and doesn't talk to me at all! Sometimes I'm just talking to myself here!"
Caroline's words caused a flicker of something in Mu Chong's eyes, and he immediately smiled and betrayed Mu Mu without any hesitation.
"Hehehe! Captain! Mumu won't be happy if you say that!"
Upon hearing this, Caroline covered her mouth and chuckled, her beautiful cheeks flushing slightly beneath her long white hair. The usually dashing Caroline had revealed a more feminine side.
"Hahaha! That silly cat wouldn't do that! We grew up together, we've been through thick and thin together, and we've even been through life and death together several times. It's not something that can be affected by a simple sentence!"
Mu Chong clearly sensed that something was off about Caroline, but he didn't press the matter further. Instead, he chatted with her like a friend.
"I envy you, Captain! Because I've never had a real playmate since I was a child! From the time I can remember, my father entrusted me to the Ancestor and started training with him, living on Mount Targon! I didn't come down from Mount Targon until I came of age!"
Caroline tightened her robes, gazing at the dark sea ahead. Though her words were tinged with sadness, a smile remained on her face, as if this were merely a story.
"Hmm? Then I'll have to go back and thank Grandpa Garsey when I have the chance. If it weren't for his guidance, how could I have such an excellent partner as you? Right, Caroline!"
Mu Chong turned to look at Caroline sitting next to him, a smile on his face, his eyes revealing genuine sincerity as he spoke.
"Tch! If the Liberty hadn't been the first decent ship I encountered, I wouldn't have boarded it! Stop praising yourself, Captain!"
Upon hearing Mu Chong's words, Caroline's smile faded slightly, replaced by a haughty expression.
"Hahaha! Caroline! Isn't this all fate's arrangement? At the most suitable time, I met the most suitable you! And then we boarded the most suitable ship! To enjoy this world with us!"
Seeing Caroline's expression, Mu Chong couldn't help but burst into laughter. He then raised his right hand, pointed to the sky, and said happily...
"Fate?"
Caroline looked at Mu Chong, her beautiful eyes shining, and after a slight pause, she spoke again.
"Captain! On the Freedom these days, with everyone's continuous and diligent training, I can feel that everyone's strength is increasing rapidly, while I, apart from possessing the Float-Float Fruit, have almost no other notable abilities..."
"Hey! Caroline!"
As Caroline's voice rang out, Mu Chong could increasingly sense the confusion in her tone. Perhaps the abundance of powerful figures on the ship made her feel out of place, hence her expression of this. However, Mu Chong interrupted her before she finished speaking.
Mu Chong turned his head, his eyes fixed intently on the former princess of the Garcia Kingdom, on the king who had once unleashed Conqueror's Haki. His expression slowly turned solemn, and a faint aura emanated from him.
"Caroline! You are one of the most important crew members on my Freedom. No matter how many people are on this ship, no one can replace your importance!"
hum!
As Mu Chong's voice rang out, a faint aura spread out, completely enveloping the two of them. At that moment, even the surrounding sea breeze seemed to stop.
Mu Chong's words made Caroline pause, and the confusion in her eyes began to fade.
"Caroline! Your future belongs to you. The Liberty is just a ship carrying everyone's dreams! Don't limit your vision to this ship; set your sights on the wider sky!"
"The previous user of the Float-Float Fruit was a legendary pirate whose name resounded throughout the seas. He could make countless strong people tremble with fear simply by relying on the power of the Float-Float Fruit, which made him a once-famous overlord of the seas. However, due to his self-abandonment, he eventually fell from the altar he had built with his own hands!"
Splash!
"Caroline! You possess the bloodline of the Lunaria clan within you, and you also have the kingly spirit to reach the pinnacle. In addition, you have the Float Fruit that can create miracles in the sky, and with the Freedom protecting you, I hope that your future will be that of a master who controls the sky battlefield, a being who can influence the entire battle by herself!"
boom!
At this point, Mu Chong's Conqueror's Haki burst forth, but under his precise control, it only affected Caroline.
"I believe in you! Caroline! When the Liberty reaches the end of the world, we will face countless enemies. I hope that on that day, you will lead this sky that needs to be overturned! Become the true God of the Sky!"
boom!
Although Mu Chong's voice wasn't loud, at that moment it was like a thunderclap in Caroline's ears; the enormous roar shattered the confusion in her heart.
hum!
The next second, as Caroline's expression gradually changed, a surge of Conqueror's Haki, seemingly reborn from the earth, swept outwards.
