Who Told You I'd Only Lived on This Island for Over a Decade?

"You bastard!"

A dazzling light flashed, and cracks in the air rushed towards us. The Airquake pierced through, and in the illusory world, like a reflection in Kyoka Suigetsu, Huayue looked up at the sky and sighed.

"Seriously, how many times have I told you? If I don't want to, no matter how many times you use your Devil Fruit powers, you won't be able to touch a single hair on my head. It's just drawing blood, why are you getting so worked up?"

Seemingly realizing that his efforts were futile, the Whitebeard snorted coldly and turned to look.

After confirming that there were no problems with her real family and brothers, she plopped down on the ground and glared at him fiercely.

"You've been missing for almost twelve years, and we haven't heard a single rumor about you. Yet here you are, hiding on this remote island. What's your purpose?"

Not far away, Roger twitched his beard, his smile widening, and picked up a bottle of red wine as he walked toward the two men.

"Speaking of which, it's been quite a while since we last met. What exactly happened in the God Valley after that? I heard the entire God Valley was reduced to dust. Could it have been your doing?"

"It's nothing. After you left, the Five Elders came by themselves, and I chased them away."

"Even after losing, he refused to admit defeat and shouted out a strange name. Then, the entire God Valley was destroyed by some mysterious special weapon. I haven't figured out the origin of that weapon yet, but it may be related to the Poneglyph."

After casually uttering these words, the members of both pirate crews were dumbfounded, and their expressions towards Uchiha Huayue completely changed to those of looking at a monster.

"Wait... did I hear something wrong? The Five Elders, the Five Elders were chased away by him?!"

"Isn't this a bit too exaggerated? This is the great Rocks who killed Rocks and slaughtered tens of thousands of Celestial Dragons in God Valley, the Ocean Kindred, Uchiha Huayue. What an amazing spirit."

"Marco, what's the story behind the massacre of tens of thousands of Celestial Dragons? Could this great pirate be a legendary villain?!"

Under Whitebeard's command, a burly man dressed as a samurai, with two long swords at his waist, asked incredulously, his pupils dilating.

"That was written on that guy's bounty poster. Only Pops and Roger know whether it's true or not, after all, the Whitebeard Pirates hadn't been formed yet..."

Upon hearing this, the burly man rushed over, and Marco quickly reached out to stop him, but he had already reached the three of them.

"You pirate sir, Marco said you slaughtered tens of thousands of innocent lives. Is that true or false? Please answer me!"

Huayue turned her head away, a strange smile appearing on her lips.

The bizarre and inexplicable appearance, with facial features that change wildly with a variety of expressions, gives the impression of low intelligence.

"Massacre? What are you talking about? When did I massacre tens of thousands of innocent people? Weren't they my enemies?"

"Oden! Calm down. What happened back then was very complicated and cannot be explained simply by saying that innocent people were massacred."

Whitebeard quickly spoke up, realizing that this guy in front of him was not as easy to talk to as the others, and that a slight misstep could bring trouble.

"Oden? A unique name. If you're really interested, I can tell you that I haven't killed anyone in God Valley except for Rocks."

At this point, Huayue gave a sinister smile, and her next words sent a chill down everyone's spine.

"I was merely using those people's corpses as fertilizer to nourish the potted plants I carefully tended. If you have any complaints, feel free to speak up..."

Upon hearing this, members of both pirate crews frowned deeply, and Buggy's legs trembled so badly that he almost collapsed to the ground.

"Using a corpse... as fertilizer is going too far. The person is already dead, why..."

"Yes, since they're already dead, why not squeeze more out of them?"

With a gleaming blue in his eyes, he exchanged a glance with the person beside him who looked just like Tang Shi'er, and the sight that greeted him made Uchiha Huayue's lips curl into a smile.

"Hmm? Wano Country, there are islands like this in this world, somewhat similar to the Ninja World. You were cooking oden while others were cremating remains, weren't you!"

"What right do you have to condemn my actions? Aren't you all just following the principle of exploiting my value, or even attending someone else's funeral?"

In an instant, the members of the Whitebeard Pirates all looked towards Kozuki Oden, and even Kozuki Toki, who was following behind him, couldn't help but glance at him.

"Wait a minute, Oden was seeing off an old friend, that's why..."

"But I turned them into fertilizer so that they could be buried properly. Otherwise, if they were caught in the aftermath of the battle and their remains were lost, how pitiful that would be! You can't be a cat and apply double standards!"

For a moment, the Nekomamushi stood there, stunned, unsure how to answer this question that had stumped his brain.

"The weapon that destroyed the entire God Valley, could it be Ancient Weapon?"

Roger murmured to himself, his gaze fixed on Huayue in front of him.

"Hey, Uchiha Huayue, haven't you gotten bored staying on this island for twelve years? Why don't you come with us to explore the true end of the world and find the last island?"

At that moment, the Roger Pirates were petrified, but Roger revealed a strange smile.

"Hey, Roger! What's this about the last island?"

Whitebeard was curious. Although he knew the direction of the last island, he didn't know what was on that island.

"Actually, we reached the last island, Lodestar Island, several years ago. After arriving at that island, the Log Pose completely stopped working, so I concluded that there should be one last island..."

After recounting his speculations and the Road Poneglyph, Roger turned his gaze to Kozuki Oden.

"You can read the Poneglyph, right? That means you can uncover the secrets hidden in the Road Poneglyph and find that legendary Great Treasure."

"Please, Newgate, let him sail with me to the last island, please!"

The Whitebeard's mouth twitched, his expression twisted, and he became extremely distraught.

"Hey, Oden is my brother, and I consider all the crew members on the ship as family. You want me to give up my family to you, Roger?"

"What does it matter? I think Roger is very sincere. What's wrong with putting it off for a while? The key is his own attitude."

Huayue, who was watching the commotion from the sidelines, laughed heartily, while Roger turned around with a serious expression.

"Uchiha Huayue, I am serious about your invitation. The mysterious weapon you mentioned that destroyed God Valley may be Ancient Weapon buried in history."

"Why would someone like you stay on this island for over a decade? Don't you want to witness the greatest secret of this world?"

Upon hearing this, Huayue's lips curled into a smile.

"Who told you that I've just been living aimlessly on this island for over a decade?"
