The Final Curtain

Even in Mary Geoise, one could clearly see the dazzling light that suddenly burst forth from the very distant sky.

The light coalesced into a river, stretching from one side of the sky to the other, displaying its most exquisite splendor to everyone.

Have we got the results yet?

Yes, there is a result.

In the vast and boundless galaxy, two enormous monsters slowly moved forward.

Sirius his sword, ready to launch another attack at any moment.

But soon he realized that it might not be necessary.

In the starry sky ahead, numerous fragments floated, and among these fragments, a similarly broken creature floated.

"Tsk, how pathetic."

Sirius clicked his tongue. "Black, come out."

In a flash of lightning, a dazzling bolt of lightning shot out from Sirius's body and then formed a large ship in the starry sky beside him.

"Phew—that feels so good, I felt like my body was being electrocuted just now."

Sirius breathed a sigh of relief.

"Captain, I've been trying my best to control the electricity!" Black shouted.

"I'll remember your contribution."

Sirius gave a perfunctory reply, and his body began to shrink, transforming from a monster tens of thousands of meters tall back into an ordinary human.

"It's over already?"

Yamato had already jumped down from Uranus's head, and after a long struggle to fly through the air, she finally arrived beside Sirius. She said with a grin, "It's finally over!"

"Yes, it's finally over."

Sirius drifted forward a short distance, calmly observing the figure in front of him.

"Does Imu-sama have any thoughts to share?"

Imu-sama floated in the starry sky ahead.

However, it was completely different from its previous appearance; its body had become quite broken and its original beauty was no longer recognizable.

"What a sorry state we've ended up like this. We were just a little careless and we've fallen to this point."

Imu could still speak, but she was completely unable to move. The surface of her body had been utterly destroyed, and the internal mechanical structure was also severely damaged.

"Where did you even slightly lose focus!"

Yamato snorted, "A loss is a loss, why make excuses?"

"Indeed," Imu said, not annoyed, but nodding with difficulty. "A loss is a loss, and saying anything more will only make things look worse."

"Black Wolf,"

She said, "You've won. This world is yours now."

"The world? Who cares about that?" Sirius laughed.

"That's right, kid. You're probably looking forward to continuing your adventures in the stars, aren't you?"

Imu's voice tinged with amusement, "Just like that Joy Boy, he always thinks what I consider important is worthless."

"You and he are the same kind of people, but I am different. Whether you admit it or not, that's the fact. Losing to you is not unacceptable to me. After all, even without you, this day would probably have come sooner or later."

Sirius raised an eyebrow. "So that's what you actually think?"

It's unbelievable! Shouldn't this person be arrogant and think that no one can defeat her?

"Nothing lasts forever, and I don't think I'm anything special."

Imu's voice was very calm, showing no sign of being moved by her current appearance. "Come on, Black Wolf, let me see if heaven really exists in this world?"

"You're dreaming of going to heaven, huh?"

Sirius's lips twitched, and he raised the black greatsword high in his hand.

"In that case, you might be able to run into old friends and tell them your stories."

Sirius laughed heartily, and his greatsword, wreathed in black energy, fell like a thunderbolt.

The jet-black Sword Wave swept across the starry sky, spreading far and wide.

"It's over?"

Yamato blinked.

"It's over."

Sirius nodded.

"It's finally over!"

Yamato cheered and jumped into Sirius's arms, hugging his neck and rubbing her head against his face. "Yay! Sirius, we can get married now!"

Oh, right.

She had promised Teacher Kaido that she would marry Yamato after the final battle.

"I really can't do anything with you. Since that's what you want, then let's get married," Sirius sighed, saying helplessly.

"What?! Sirius, are you so unwilling? This is too much, absolutely too much! I don't want to marry you!!"

"Don't poke me, don't poke me! Your horns are hard, you idiot!"

Sirius, stung by Yamato's angry horn, quickly said, "Alright, alright, I understand, I understand!"

He took a deep breath, then cupped Yamato's face in his hands. "Yamato, will you marry me?"

Yamato's face beamed with a smile as bright as a flower, her eyes crinkling at the corners. "Mmm!"

The two embraced under the starry sky, their laughter carrying far and wide.

"This is really—"

On the deck of the Sirius, Black shook his head helplessly. "Captain, flirting is fine anytime. Let's go back and report the results to them first. Everyone's waiting for us."

"Awooo!"

The Uranus, whose size had also shrunk, nodded repeatedly with an air of seriousness.

The battle is over, and it's definitely time to go back and share the joy of victory with my friends.

In Mary Geoise, the fighting has gradually subsided.

After the Commander-in-Chief Kong announced a ceasefire, the naval forces gradually ceased fighting.

There was no other way but to keep fighting. The three Admiral were defeated one after another, and the Fleet Admiral was also beaten to the point of being in critical condition by Kaido. CP0's Strongest Shield was defeated by Dragon.

There is no hope of victory; forcing a fight will only result in total annihilation.

The only ones still wanting to fight—those last trump cards of the government who had undergone the immortality surgery—were all killed by Kaido, Drag, Shanks, and the others, who were now free to fight.

The fighting here has completely ceased.

So everyone began to wait anxiously.

Who will return from the sky?

What can be confirmed is that the side that returned was the one that won the war.

"How ridiculous!"

From the crowd, Vice Admiral Tsuru sighed, "We actually planned to wipe out both sides in one fell swoop?"

But this is the result.

It's truly astonishing.

"They're here! They're here!!"

Suddenly, someone exclaimed.

Everyone's attention was focused.

Black dots appeared in the sky; something was coming.

The members of the Sirius Pirates were now all smiling, and the Black accessories they always carried informed them of the final result of the battle.

In the sky, the large ship and the dragon descended rapidly, soon arriving above Mary Geoise.

Before this, cheers had already transformed the entire ruined Mary Geoise into a joyous Paradise.

"We won!!"

"It's Mr. Sirius!!"

"He defeated Imu!! He won!!"

"It's our victory!!"

Cheers, jubilation, and tears streaming down their faces without restraint.

Sirius, holding Yamato's hand, walked to the bow of the Sirius. Looking down at the jubilant scene below, a smile played on his lips, and he said loudly, "It seems a bit late, but I'll say it anyway."

"We won."

"Oooooo!!"

Cheers resounded through the sky.
