Passing the Message (2)

"I've already thought of a way, so don't worry!" Luffy nodded and said.

"Alright, you guys eat first. I'll go find Hancock and get some fuel. Once we have enough fuel, I'll take you there," Fanxin nodded and said.

He needed fuel, just in case. If they encountered a powerful enemy, he could easily escape from the sky. They were going there to pay tribute to Ace; they didn't want to cause any trouble.

Therefore, he must obtain this fuel; only in this way can he use it at a critical moment.

"Alright, go ahead!" Rayleigh nodded and said.

"Okay." Nodding, Fanxin stood up and prepared to go over.

However, just as he was about to act, he remembered something. He looked at Ren Fang, smiled bitterly, and said, "Fang'er, you go in my place!"

The Amazon Lily only allows women to enter, and the reason he's here is because of Amazon Lily rules. Since that's the case, it seems he won't be able to enter later.

However, he needed to get his hands on the fuel. Therefore, he had no choice but to let Ren Fang, who was also a woman, carry out the task. As a woman, she was much more convenient to act.

Upon hearing this, Ren Fang couldn't help but laugh and said, "Hehe, it seems there's something you can't do."

"I didn't say I could handle everything!" Fanxin said dejectedly.

"Alright, I'm not complaining anymore. You stay and cook, I'm leaving now." Ren Fang helped Fanxin straighten her clothes, then she took her Flight Armor and left, heading straight for the palace.

Seeing that Ren Fang had left, Fanxin stopped wasting time and immediately took over Ren Fang's work.

"Eat more, we'll be going over there later, and there won't be any more food this delicious," Fanxin said.

Rayleigh nodded, but ate very slowly, because he didn't have a large appetite to begin with.

However, Luffy's appetite is astonishing. He was previously listless and couldn't eat anything. But now he's transformed into a glutton. The amount of food he eats is truly terrifying.

In no time, half of the sea lion was inside his stomach.

Fanxin Xin chuckled but didn't say anything more.

An hour later, the entire sea lion was gone, devoured by the group. Luckily, Fanxin had the foresight to save some for Ren Fang. Otherwise, Ren Fang would have had to eat it all.

An hour and a half later, Ren Fang returned, bringing back a lot of fuel.

Fanxin Xin immediately handed the prepared sea lion meat to Ren Fang so that she could fill her stomach.

"Alright, now I'll take everyone over there. Don't resist, understand?" Fanxin said, immediately sending Dark King Rayleigh, Luffy, and Ren Fang into the Diamond Space.

He did this because he planned to travel underwater; the surface was too conspicuous. Once discovered by the navy, reaching Marineford would be impossible. However, if they traveled underwater, the navy would be unable to detect them.

Because the navy doesn't have X-ray vision, they couldn't see through the sea and find them.

Luffy, Ren Fang, and Dark King Rayleigh are all human and cannot stay underwater for long. Therefore, he had no choice but to put them into the Diamond Space.

After finishing, Fanxin told Hancock and then jumped into the sea.

After venturing deep into the ocean, Fanxin continued swimming towards the location of Marineford.

Many Sea Kings wanted to attack him, but Fanxin was not afraid at all. He directly used Conqueror's Haki to attack those guys. Under his attack, the Sea Kings all dodged and dared not stop him.

He traveled along the seabed at an extremely fast speed.

Five days later, Fanxin arrived in Marineford.

After emerging from the sea, he immediately released Ren Fang, Dark King Rayleigh, Luffy.

"It's really badly damaged!" Fanxin said.

The Marine Headquarters is completely different now compared to before. You simply can't believe this is what the Marine Headquarters is like.

"Heh, that's natural. Both Whitebeard and Blackbeard bombarded this island with their earthquake abilities. It's impossible for the island not to deform," Dark King Rayleigh said.

"That's the destructive power of an earthquake; it's absolutely terrifying." Fanxin nodded, admitting it.

"Alright, let's finish this quickly!" said Dark King Rayleigh.

"Okay, let's move out!" Nodding, Fanxin stopped talking nonsense. He was also worried that a large number of naval forces were coming. Although this place was destroyed, it was no longer an ordinary place, and there would definitely be naval forces stationed here.

If the navy comes, they'll be in trouble. Although he's not afraid, he doesn't want to kill any more innocent marines.

Then, without further ado, they all got to work and rushed to the center of the island.

At this time, there weren't many people on the island; mainly construction workers and journalists, with the fewest being marines. Presumably, the naval high command believed the island had been destroyed and there was no need to guard it anymore.

Their appearance caused a riot.

The marines were unsettled. Although frightened, they gritted their teeth and came forward. It was their duty!

News reporters rushed over, and some even dared to interview them in person, treating them like celebrities.

Fanxin and Ren Fang remained calm. These people posed no threat, and they couldn't be bothered to argue with them. They let them take pictures as they pleased.

Luffy first circled the entire island, then threw a bouquet of flowers into the sea. This was a water festival, a way for him to commemorate his brother's death.

He then walked around in front of the reporters. He showed one of his arms, on which was written a string of letters and numbers, "3D2Y".

The number and letter at the beginning have been crossed out.

It means, not three days, but two years.

When Luffy parted ways with the crew, he said that they would reunite on Sabaody Archipelago three days later. However, so much time has passed that it's unlikely they'll make it back in time.

Therefore, he changed the timeframe to two years.

This is the best option, because two years is plenty of time. Everyone doesn't need to rush; they can focus on their training and improve their strength.

After wandering around for more than half an hour, everyone left.

However, the news media were in an uproar because this was major news! The simultaneous attack of Fanxin, Straw Hat Luffy, and Dark King Rayleigh was no small matter; it would shock the world.

They immediately relayed the message back to headquarters, which then began printing newspapers and sending them around the world.

Not only did everyone else know, but Luffy's crew members scattered around the world also found out.

After they understood what it meant, they were no longer in such a hurry. They all stayed where they were and began to cultivate, making themselves stronger.

A few days later, Fanxin sent Luffy and Dark King Rayleigh back to Amazon Lily.

"Luffy, from now on you must train diligently under Dark King Rayleigh, understand? If you don't train hard, you won't have the right to cry when your comrades die, because that will be because you didn't work hard enough. If you train diligently, that situation will never happen," Fanxin said.

He was warning Luffy that only through hard work could he avoid certain tragedies. If he didn't train hard, the tragedies would repeat themselves, and he would repeat the same mistakes.

"I understand," Luffy nodded and said.

"Very well, I'll come find you in two years. By then, I'll return your ship to you. If you haven't mastered Haki by then, I'll destroy your pirate ship without hesitation, understand? That's our agreement," Fanxin said.

He's forcing Luffy to work harder. That way, Luffy will give it his all.

"Okay, thank you." Luffy nodded and said.

"Uncle Rayleigh, Luffy is in your hands now," Fanxin said.

Dark King Rayleigh nodded slightly, indicating that there was no problem.

Then, Fanxin stopped talking and immediately took Ren Fang away from the Amazon Lily, heading into the distance.

He took out a small boat from the Diamond Space, and then he and Ren Fang sat on the boat, leisurely enjoying wine and tea.

Meanwhile, the robot Xiao Ning was controlling the direction from the side.

"Master, where are we going now?" the robot Xiao Ning asked.

"Let's see what's on the nearest island and head straight there!" Fanxin said.

He's mainly focused on gaining experience now, so he doesn't have a clear goal. If he encounters a skilled opponent, he'll take on the challenge; that's all.

"There's only one island closest to us, and that's Iron Forest Island," said the robot Xiao Ning.

"Oh, what kind of place is that? Why does it have such a strange name?" Fanxin asked curiously.

"Iron Forest Island, as the name suggests, is where all the forests are incredibly hard, just like iron," Xiao Ning said. "There are many hard things there, Master. Your children have food to eat."

Fanxin's Diamond Beast all like to eat hard things. Now that there are hard things on Iron Forest Island, Fanxin can easily buy some and feed them to the Diamond Beast.

"Hmm, you've said a lot, alright! Alright, let's go there then!" Fanxin Xin nodded slightly and said.

He hasn't been looking for good food for Diamond Beast for a while now. If there's any available, he'll naturally go there.

"Alright, you can do as you please. I'm setting sail." Xiao Ning nodded, then steered the boat straight towards Iron Forest Island.

Ren Fang and Fanxin sat there leisurely. Ren Fang, bored, simply lay down in Fanxin's arms and fell asleep.

Fanxin let Ren Fang lie there without disturbing her.

And so the ship sailed on for a long time. Several days later, they finally arrived at Iron Forest Island.

"Let's go sightseeing first!" Ren Fang said.

"Okay, let's go sightseeing." Fanxin didn't object. He hardly had time to spend with Ren Fang anymore. Especially during the year he was in seclusion, he hardly saw Ren Fang at all. He felt very guilty.

So he decided to take this time to make up for it. Anyway, he wasn't in a hurry, and there was no need to rush things.

"Thank you, honey," Ren Fang said with a smile.

"Hehe, you're already calling me 'husband' before we've even had the wedding ceremony!" Fanxin teased.

"Hmph, isn't that just a matter of time?" Ren Fang said with a smile.

"Of course." Fanxin nodded. He was a responsible person, and now that he had already agreed to Ren Fang's request, he naturally wouldn't be half-hearted. Afterwards, he, Ren Fang, and Xiao Ning went ashore.

After putting the boat away, Fanxin and the other two headed towards the center of Iron Forest Island. They looked around, thoroughly enjoying themselves.

"There's something delicious over there. I want to go eat," Ren Fang said.

"Alright, let's go!" Fanxin Xin chuckled and pulled Ren Fang along.

Upon arriving at their destination, the three sat down, ordered a lot of delicious food, and then ate there attentively.

As Fanxin ate, he looked around and suddenly saw many people wearing iron chains, like prisoners, placed by the roadside.

"Hey, waiter, what's wrong with those people? Why are they locked up?" Fanxin asked curiously.

"Sigh, they didn't do anything wrong, they just offended some powerful people. So, they were arrested and locked up there." A waiter whispered, "You'd better not offend any of the powerful people here, or you'll get arrested and locked up there too."

The powerful and influential here wield immense power, controlling life and death, and no one dares to say a word. Those who live here must tread carefully.

"So domineering?" Fanxin said.

"Isn't that right? But nobody dares to say anything. Everyone knows the truth, but who dares to rebel? Those who rebel will die," the waiter said.

"Okay, I understand. You can go about your business now!" Fanxin nodded, tossed a few gold coins to the waiter, and let him leave.

The waiter nodded slightly, took the gold coins, and went elsewhere.

"Fanxin, are you going to make a move?" Ren Fang asked. Fanxin couldn't stand this kind of thing the most, and she felt that Fanxin was probably going to make a move.

"Of course, as I said, I won't say anything if I don't see it. However, if I see something injustice, I will definitely intervene." Fanxin nodded and said, "Let's finish eating first, and after we pay the bill, we'll go and give them some food."

Those people were locked up there, ignored and ignored. They were parched and emaciated, clearly having been locked up for a long time. If they were left like that, they would surely die.

"Okay." Ren Fang nodded, then got up and bought a lot of food from the shop, all of which were for those people.

Ren Fang put the food in a bag and packed it up. Then, she returned to the table and ate with Fanxin.

After finishing their meal, Ren Fang paid the bill. Then, the three of them headed towards the roadside.

When they reached the roadside, Ren Fang opened the package, took out food, and began to feed them.

"Don't worry about us, hurry up and leave, otherwise you'll be targeted." A middle-aged man with a full beard said immediately when he saw Ren Fang bringing him food.
