In the evening, the sun sets in the west, and the dim and soft light shines through the clouds on the hillside.

Green grass covers the entire hillside, which is the highest place in the village.

From the day Fina married to this small island, she had an indissoluble bond with this hillside.

In the past, Fina and Zefa liked to come here because of their quarrels and disagreements. At first, it was because of the beautiful scenery and cleanliness.

Later, Zefa also discovered that Fina liked to come here when she was sulking, so he also chased her over. The two of them sat side by side at the highest point of the hillside, talking about their respective concerns.

The breeze blew over the hillside and blew over their faces, taking away all the bad emotions. Over time, this place became a place for the two to talk and resolve conflicts.

Later, Zefa left and often came back once a year and a half. Every time Fina missed Zefa, she would come here alone and miss every bit of the two of them in the past.

Later, Aizen came. At that time, Aizen had just traveled to this world, and his sense of belonging to this world was not very strong. But in Fina’s eyes, Aizen was still immersed in the sadness and sadness of losing his family. In a sense of loneliness.

Therefore, Fina often brought Aizen here to relax, hoping that the wind here could take away the sadness and loneliness in Aizen’s heart.

In the following days, every evening, after dinner, Fina would come here with Aizen and Rancher.

Fina sat at the highest point of the hillside, looking at the other side of the sea, while Aizen played with Lan Che at the foot of the hillside…

The breeze blew through the grass, carrying pieces of grass, blowing over Aizen’s face, past Zefa’s ears, and onto Fina and Rancher’s tombstones.

Aizen was wearing the clothes Fina bought for him, Zefa’s black suit, and the two of them stood beside Fina and Rancher’s graves.

As Fina and Rancher’s coffins were slowly buried, Aizen’s heart became more and more painful.

In this familiar place, in this place full of beautiful memories, Aizen couldn’t help but shed tears after all.

A big hand stretched out from behind and put it on Aizen’s shoulder.

Aizen didn’t need to look back to know that the owner of the hand was Zefa.

Although Zefa pretended to be calm, his trembling arms betrayed him.

Looking at the photos of Fina and Rancher on the tombstone, Aizen fell into memories again. Fina’s gentle smile appeared in front of Aizen’s eyes, and Rancher’s heartless laughter emerged. Already…

Time passed unknowingly, and as the priest finished his prayer and announced that the funeral had come to an end, Aizen woke up from his memories.

Zefa walked past Aizen, holding a bouquet of withered roses in his hand, which Zefa bought from an island on the Grand Line that was famous for its flowers.

He originally wanted to give Fina a surprise, but in order to prevent the flowers from wilting and withering, he used his moon steps to rush over as soon as he entered the West Sea.

However, I still didn’t catch up after all…

The flower withered after all…

Zefa placed the flowers in front of Fina’s grave and wanted to say something, but when the words came to his lips, he still couldn’t say them.

Zefa always believed that all these were the consequences of his sins. He even wanted to die to apologize for his sins, but the responsibilities and ideals of the navy always weighed on his shoulders…

Perhaps, he has a better way to atone for his sins, that is to die on the battlefield to eliminate pirates…

At this time, Aizen also slowly walked forward, holding the “birthday gift” he had not given in his hand.

Aizen neatly folded the skirt and placed it in a small box. Aizen thought for a long time, and finally decided not to take it away, but to leave it here…

Maybe taking it with you can make you miss him, but staying here can also give comfort to the deceased Aunt Fina… and leave a place of peace of mind for yourself…

Zefa and Aizen stood side by side on the shore.

“Woooo~” The sound of the ship’s whistle came from the distance. Zefa did not bring a phone bug, so his subordinates still drove at the original speed.

The ship docked, and groups of naval soldiers swarmed down, their faces full of joy. Just when everyone was about to line up to enter the village, Zefa stopped them.

Just as the squad leader was about to ask something, Zefa’s adjutant saw something and immediately stopped him: “Follow General Zefa’s order and prepare to return immediately!”

Zefa still didn’t say a word, but after everyone got on the boat, he took Aizen’s hand and walked slowly onto the naval warship.

The ship soon set sail again, and the whistle sounded again, bringing Aizen’s thoughts to the distance.

Looking at the ruins in the distance, Aizen still couldn’t believe what he was seeing.

A few days ago this was a prosperous, harmonious and lively village, but now…

The pirates of the Blood Hand Pirates never spared anyone, not even young children.

When Aizen and Zefa buried the corpses of the villagers, the ruthlessness and cruelty of the Blood Hand Pirates shocked Aizen again. Some villagers could not even piece together a complete corpse…

The sky was getting dark, and Leo, Zefa’s adjutant, came over and wanted to call Aizen to eat.

Aizen followed Leo to the door of a room. Leo gently knocked on the door a few times, then retreated behind Aizen, waiting for a response from inside.

“Come in.” A rich male voice came from the room.

After hearing the response, Aizen was pushed into the room by Leo behind him.

What comes into view is a small wooden table with a small lamp placed on it.

Platefuls of food were placed on the small table, filling the table immediately.

Zefa looked at Aizen and felt a little overwhelmed for a moment. Finally, he could only say dullly: “Let’s eat.”

Aizen was not that embarrassed. After receiving the permission, he quickly found a place to sit down, picked up his chopsticks and started picking up the food.

Seeing Aizen start eating happily, Zefa was no longer embarrassed and nervous at the beginning, picked up the chopsticks and started eating.

Soon, the food was finished by the two of them. At this time, Zefa pressed the button on the desk next to him, and a bell sounded.

Soon an orderly knocked on the door, walked quickly into the house, collected the dishes and table, and packed them up and took them out.

Zefa was silent for a while and said, “You sleep on the bed, and I’ll sleep underneath.”

After saying that, Zefa made a bed on the floor and lay down on it.

Seeing Zefa like this, Aizen couldn’t say anything else and had no choice but to lie down on Zefa’s bed.

Aizen put his hands under the pillow and looked at the ceiling quietly, trying hard to accept and adapt to everything now.

Maybe it was due to the huge emotional ups and downs in the past two days, or maybe he was too tired from fighting, so Aizen fell asleep without realizing it.

Seeing Aizen sleeping deeply, Zefa also breathed a sigh of relief.

Zefa quietly stood up and opened the door, walked out, found his adjutant Leo, explained some things, and then began his daily inspection.

When Zefa returned from inspecting the entire ship, he found that Aizen was still sleeping peacefully. He quietly lay down on the bed and looked at Aizen’s young face. He instantly felt at ease and at ease. Soon he also He fell into a deep sleep.
