On Angel Island's beach, the sun was just right, and the breeze was gentle. Beneath a pavilion—
"This is so nice. No Marines will come after us here."
Nami lounged lazily on a cotton-white sofa. "This cloud sofa is so comfortable. Skypiea really does have technology for processing clouds."
"I heard they also have Dial Energy, using strange shells to do all sorts of unbelievable things."
Reiner lay lazily on another sofa, with a bottle of red wine and two wineglasses on the stone table beside him.
He had paid an eight-hundred-thousand-Beli entrance fee just to enjoy some leisurely time here. After all, this was Skypiea. Since he was already here, he might as well enjoy it.
"Cheers."
"Cheers."
Watching the cheerful group on the beach, Reiner felt rather like an older brother taking his younger siblings out.
He could understand Whitebeard now. Despite having titles like the strongest man alive and the man closest to the throne, all he thought about every day was how to take care of his sons.
Though one of them had turned out to be an ungrateful bastard, still—
Even someone like Blackbeard had thought that if he never found the Dark-Dark Fruit, he could just spend the rest of his life aboard Whitebeard's ship. That showed how good the atmosphere on that ship must have been.
He swirled his wineglass and took a sip, then set it down and closed his eyes to rest. With the gentle sea breeze brushing over him and the soft white cloud sofa beneath him, Reiner gradually grew sleepy.
"Hey, Reiner! Nami!"
Luffy came running over with a grin, brimming with excitement. "Let's go visit Conis's house!"
"Conis?" Reiner sat up and switched out his sunglasses.
"Yeah, yeah! We just met her, and she's a good person!"
