A Name Cannot Be Sewn Back onto a Child

"Then let's not open it yet."

Lin Qi marked the narrow coffin as a target for rescue but did not issue an order to open it.

Ace looked at the red thread wrapped around the coffin.

My name is in it too.

"There is only one word for Si."

"That's mine too."

Mo'er moved the seventh line of Paper Thread next to the projection of the White Ship.

"The person who coughed removed this character back then to make it impossible to complete the receiving records."

Why are you clinging to him now?

"He put all the fragments of his name into the narrow coffin."

What will happen if I take it out?

"Ask him first."

Lingering Voice tapped the edge of the hospital bed three times, then one time with a short tap.

The narrow coffin responded twice.

He said it couldn't be taken.

"Only ask me."

The Lingering Voice, then the knocking resumed.

This time, it was replied to four times.

He said your name is already complete and doesn't need this part.

Ace reached for the beaded necklace.

"Those are just words in the record?"

Robin checked the two names.

"The Ace you are using now comes from the official records left by Rouge; the Ace in the narrow coffin belongs to the forced acceptance form from twenty-two years ago."

"The same character, used in two ways."

"Right."

"Destroy it."

Mo'er immediately said, "We can't burn it directly; the red thread is connected to fragments of other children's names."

"Then let's take it apart."

"The person inside the narrow coffin needs to cooperate."

Ace opened the hull.

Can you hear me?

There was no coughing.

Lingering Voice explained, "He only hears the knocking."

Ace tapped on the deck.

The Whitebeard Pirates' ship is too far from the Calm Belt; these two events won't reach the White Ship.

The Little Patch attached the Paper Thread to the Den Den Mushi.

"You can now."

Ace struck again.

One long.

Two short.

Mo'er asked, "What are you banging on?"

"My name belongs to me."

This phrase was not present in the old transit code.

Let him guess.

A few coughs came from inside the narrow coffin.

After a moment, a red thread came loose from the bottom of the White Ship and traveled along the communication Paper Thread to Ace.

The word "Si" didn't come close to his body, it only stopped next to the phone.

A question appeared on the paper.

Do you want to receive it?

"Not accepted."

The red line should be moved back half an inch.

"I won't stay with you either."

The red line did not move further.

"This record is what they used to sew Rouge's body back together for me. It's kept as evidence, and no one is allowed to add any names to it."

Lin Qi recorded his original words.

The Throne immediately gave a notification.

[Incomplete names cannot be saved independently]

Ace asked, "Who made that rule?"

[The name must belong to an entity]

"Then it belongs to the Evidence Page."

[The Evidence Page lacks legal personality]

"That's perfect, it shouldn't be looking for anyone else anyway."

Robin opened a Blank page that only listed the purpose and source of the item.

"The word "S" is registered as a fragment of a forged receipt and does not form part of Ace's name or form part of any child's identity."

The Throne refused to be moved.

This action will result in the mother's remains having no recipient.

Garp said, "She never had anyone to accept."

[The deceased's estate must be inherited by their relatives]

Who made that decision?

[World Government Corpse Management Law]

Akainu retrieved the legal provisions.

The original text states that unclaimed bodies can be temporarily held by local authorities, but must not be received by relatives.

Turn to the revised version of the Sengoku text.

"A special bloodline clause was added twenty-two years ago, which only applies to Roger's associates."

Who signed it?

"Directly Subordinate Seal of the Five Elders."

"Then bring out the person who signed it and make them responsible."

The Throne Page was blank for a moment.

Garp pushed the Navy Seat Seal to Akainu.

"Ask."

Lin Qi wrote down the title.

[Should the fragments of the name that were removed be returned to the person in charge, continue to be kept in the coffin, or be converted into separate evidence of falsifying receipt records?]

The first three items appeared quickly.

[A: Return Ace, complete the body retrieval]

[B: Return Rouge, mending the mother-son relationship]

[C: Remain in the narrow coffin to maintain Experimental Mother stability]

Lin Qi added the last item.

[D: Proceed to the separate Evidence Page. Adding any victim's name is prohibited. The investigation into the responsible Executor for the related remains and experiments continues.]

Ace, who had no seat, simply said to the offline channel, "I choose D."

The Navy Seat subsequently confirmed this.

The Revolutionary Army Seat.

When Makino chose option D, Blank asked from the island, "What about Rouge's remains?"

"Keep searching."

"Who should we give it to if we find it?"

Ace answered her.

"First, confirm what her wishes were left behind."

"What if there isn't one?"

"They didn't even give it to me to Receipt."

She is your mother.

"Therefore, I cannot decide where her remains should go."

The Blank hand was removed from the wooden piece on the abdomen.

"Then where is the coffin inside my body?"

"We'll confirm whether it's part of the remains once you agree to the examination."

I disagree.

"Then we won't investigate."

Will you keep waiting?

"Meeting."

The Civilian Witness Seats were sealed.

The Medical Seat seconded the motion.

Buggy looked at option D.

Who keeps the independent Evidence Page?

Nami said, "Each of the five factions should keep a copy."

What about the shipping costs?

"If you mention it again, I'll give your seat to someone else."

"I'm doing this to prevent the evidence from being lost during transport."

"Put first."

The fifth vote passed.

The red line with the word "S" left the narrow coffin and fell into the independent evidence page.

It did not send reinforcements to Ace.

He didn't return to the Straw Hat either.

In coffin number 1968, the Receipt for Ace to pick up his mother began to peel off from the last word.

Si.

Ai.

Wait.

The entire sentence was erased word by word.

The markings Lingering Voice the chest used to compare Ace's birth record also went out.

Little Patch asked on the scroll, "Does it still hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt anymore."

You're not like him anymore.

Lingering Voice looked down at his palm.

I didn't even know what he looked like.

Ace leaned back against the ship's side.

It's best not to resemble that.

Luffy asked, "Ace, are you unhappy?"

Why should I be happy?

He doesn't need to replace you anymore.

Ace looked at the Lingering Voice page of the medical record.

"That's to be expected."

The Whitebeard picked up the wine jug.

"Now that the expected task has been accomplished, I can have a drink too."

"Pops, the doctor told you to drink less."

Marco isn't on this route.

He can hear.

Marco reached out and took the flask from the side.

After Zhai Coffin lost the word "Si", the red lines of the rest of his name began to loosen.

It has a complete surname.

There are names that are only half-written.

Many more are reduced to a single, unrecognizable stroke.

Robin checks the quantity.

"A total of 3,472 segments, exceeding the record of the children on the ship."

"The same child may have been separated multiple times."

Mo'er reached out and touched the Paper Thread.

A Hui pushed his hand away.

"You want to go in again?"

"I only look at the outer layer."

"The outer layer will also take away memories."

Lingering Voice tapped twice on the bed of the Kuja.

The narrow coffin returned to the same rhythm.

He told us to move the names first.

Where to move?

He said there was already a receiving point outside.

Nami immediately rejected it.

"The receiving point is reserved for the mother's consciousness; fragments of her name cannot be mixed in."

Dragon said, "The Revolutionary Army can establish a new independent evidence database."

Akainu continued, "The Navy Archives can also be partitioned, but it must be ensured that the original documents are not modified within the organization."

Sengoku looked at him.

"So you finally understand the importance of defending the navy itself."

"These documents have been processed by agencies directly under the World Government; no one can tacitly accept their credibility."

Boa Hancock asked for Lingering Voice.

"Would the person in the narrow coffin be willing to hand over their name?"

The Lingering Voice was played for a long time.

The replies were intermittent, with coughs interspersed between each paragraph.

He said, "You can pay."

What are the conditions?

"Let the mother on the boat leave first."

Nami glanced at the timer.

"Five and a half hours remain; 963 people have not yet been evacuated."

Zixuan asked, "Can he wake them up?"

"Able."

Why didn't you call it before?

Lingering Voice tapping.

The person in the narrow coffin replied after a long time.

"After waking them, they will remember the child's name."

Isn't this a good thing?

"His name is still tied to him."

Mo'er looked at the more than three thousand red lines.

"As long as the mother remembers the name, the fragment will return to the corresponding child along the kinship record, and the receiving chain will be restored."

A Sha asked from the Revolutionary Army's medical record, "Can't we just not want the child's name, only our own?"

"I can't control it when I wake up."

Nan Zhi said, "When I woke up, the first thing I thought of was my daughter's shoes, and only then did I think of myself."

Zixuan question Blank.

"Could you tell them not to look for the child yet?"

The Blank hand remained pressed against the hull of the boat.

"I can say that they might not be able to hear you."

"Then let's go one by one."

"There's not enough time."

"It's better than waking us both up."

The Lingering Voice suddenly tapped three times.

The Echo from the narrow coffin changed, continuously traveling towards the upper level of the White Ship.

In the first sip of the slumbering Black Cup, the woman did not ask about the child.

She said a name first.

My Haruka.

The second cup was then opened.

My name is Seiya.

More and more sounds rose from under the ship.

They all gave their own names.

None of them mentioned children.

Vegapunk examines the narrow coffin.

"He's using the fragments of his name that he's preserved to awaken the name's original owner."

Will the receiver link be restored?

"Not for now; he's only returning the portion that belongs to his mother."

The number of transfers has begun to rise.

Eight hundred and twenty-one.

Nine hundred and five.

One thousand and seventy.

The Blank medical records on the Kuja medical ship were filled up page by page, and the naval hospital and the Revolutionary Army liaison station also received new independent records.

The Whitebeard territory's reception point was crowded with people who could write.

Buggy's men on the delivery ship ran back and forth carrying cardboard boxes.

"Captain, seat number 167 is full, but three more people are coming."

"Add three more tables."

Nami only approved 167.

"Can rescue slots be blocked? Accept the case first, then let her complete the paperwork later."

Upon hearing this, Nami added ten temporary positions to the list.

Buggy immediately said, "I'll provide 177 receiving points; the credit will be recalculated."

"Shut up and memorize the name."

When only two hundred people remained in the last batch of sleeping coffins, the coughing inside the narrow coffins grew more and more frequent.

Lingering Voice and tap to inquire.

No reply.

Little Patch extends a red thread from the spool.

"Let me hear it."

Mo'er held the spool down.

"Don't connect directly; he might delegate maintenance responsibilities to you."

"I won't take responsibility, I'll only listen to one sentence."

He's a master at hiding things in a single sentence.

A Hui looked at Mo'er.

Are you talking about him, or about yourself?

Mo'er did not answer.

The red thread marking the name on the outside of the narrow coffin had loosened considerably.

The number of people transferred from the ship exceeded 1,700.

Only the last sixty-two Black Cups remained unawakened.

The Lingering Voice and struck again.

This time, the narrow coffin finally made a comeback.

What did he say?

"The names are almost all moved."

"Then what?"

Lingering Voice your ear close to the edge of the bed and wait until the second tapping is finished.

"He told us to sail the White Ship back to the spot where it sank twenty-two years ago."

Nami was moved to the old flight path.

What's there now?

The person inside the narrow coffin stopped knocking.

However, a narrow crack appeared on its own at the bottom of the boat.

No seawater rushed in.

Below the gap, a rusty section of the ship's mast was visible, with the World Government's transfer flag from twenty-two years ago still hanging on it.

An incomplete Handoff Record was written on the back of the flag.

[The Object Awaiting Destruction has already left the ship]

[Actual number of people remaining on board: two]

Mo'er stared at the second line.

"After the ship sank, the Custodian told me that I was the only one left on board."

A Hui asked, "Who is the other one?"

The coughing inside the narrow coffin stopped.

From the very bottom of the White Ship came a knocking sound that was completely different from the previous one.

The sound came from even below the narrow coffin.

One long.

Three short.

Mo'er used the edge of the table to help him stand up.

"This is the Old Crew Distress Code."

What does that mean?

The person in the coffin is not the last.

Below the rusty mast, a hand gripped the hull of the White Ship.

The date of his change of fortune from twenty-two years ago is engraved on his wrist.

There was also a line of words next to it that had been soaked by seawater.

Please bring Lin Qi back to the Handoff Point.
