The warship sailed steadily on the vast sea, the sea breeze blowing, and the sails were raised high under the blue sky and white clouds.
On the deck, compared to when they came, the scene now had a strange color - a skeleton in a navy uniform was strolling on the deck.
And Jin An also gained a 'little brother' - Moonlight Moria.
Everything seemed to be advancing according to his plan.
Jin An stood at the bow of the ship, gently holding the railing with both hands, his eyes fixed on the boundless ocean in the distance.
His expression was as calm as water, but his heart was surging.
He had been fighting in this sea for many years, and now, with the joint efforts of Bundy World and the Navy, the four seas were gradually getting rid of their former disordered state.
Although there was still much work to be done, it was much better than in the past.
He recalled the path he had traveled, the storms and life-and-death battles that had made him even more determined.
However, challenges still lay ahead, and he knew that there were still many enemies to face and many unsolved mysteries waiting for him to uncover.
Just then, Brook's voice interrupted his thoughts.
The skeleton musician asked curiously:
"Admiral Jin An, where are we going next?"
Jin An's fingers tapped lightly on the railing, making rhythmic sounds.
He tilted his head slightly, a trace of contemplation flashed in his eyes, and then he smiled indifferently, as if he had already made up his mind.
"Let's go to Reverse Mountain first, and then go to the West Sea from there."
As he spoke, he looked at the distant horizon.
Hearing the name "Reverse Mountain", Brook's soul fire burned even brighter.
His bone hand trembled slightly, his eyes filled with uncontrollable excitement.
"Reverse Mountain..."
He murmured, as if recalling something.
That place was the starting point for him and his companions to reach the Grand Line, and it was also the place where he separated from Laboon.
Now, he was finally going to set foot on that land again, everything seemed to be back to the starting point, but this time, he was no longer alone.
Jin An noticed Brook's emotional fluctuations, glanced at him, and the corner of his mouth raised slightly.
"Brook, your dream has not yet been realized, there is still a long way to go."
Brook nodded, although he no longer had a physical body, he felt a force surging within him that he had never felt before.
Jin An's words were like a fire burning in his heart, dispelling the confusion and hesitation he once had, and allowing him to regain his direction forward.
"That's right, I still have many unfinished things."
Brook said firmly, his voice revealing an unshakable determination.
Jin An smiled, patted Brook on the shoulder, as if conveying a tacit understanding and trust.
This skeleton musician seemed weak on the surface, but he had an extremely tenacious will in his heart.
And this was exactly what Jin An appreciated, he needed such a partner to face the challenges of the future together.
As the warship continued to sail, the sea breeze blew against the clothes of the two, and their figures appeared particularly firm and lonely in the sunlight.
Reverse Mountain gradually appeared in their sight, and the towering mountains seemed to herald the beginning of a new adventure.
Brook looked at the approaching Reverse Mountain, his heart full of anticipation and excitement.
He knew that his life would be changed again, and this time, he would not miss any opportunity.
Jin An still maintained his composure and calmness.
He knew that the road ahead was full of unknown dangers and challenges, but he was not afraid, because he was already prepared.
And in his plan, this trip to the West Sea would be an important step for him to move towards his ultimate goal.
"Let's move forward together, Brook, our adventure has just begun."
Jin An said in a low voice, with a hint of excitement that was not easily noticed.
Brook nodded and followed behind Jin An, ready to meet the upcoming adventures and challenges.
Their ship continued to move forward on the sea, and the distant Reverse Mountain, illuminated by the sun, exuded a mysterious and solemn atmosphere, as if waiting for their arrival.
......
Just as they approached Reverse Mountain, a whale song that seemed to come from the depths of the sky suddenly resounded through the clouds.
The sound was low and powerful, as if shaking every molecule in the air, and it reached the ears of every navy on the warship.
Before the sound fell, huge waves were set off on the sea, one wave higher than the other, and the warship rose and swayed between the waves, as if it could be swallowed by the huge waves at any time.
Jin An, who was standing at the bow of the ship, felt this powerful vibration.
He gripped the railing tightly with both hands, trying to steady his body from being shaken by the huge waves.
The sea breeze howled past, messing up his hair, but his eyes were still calm, staring at the gradually appearing Reverse Mountain.
"This is because of the impact..."
Jin An murmured in a low voice, the sound was light, but it clearly reached his ears.
He understood in his heart that Laboon, the tenacious whale, was still tirelessly hitting Reverse Mountain.
The huge sound and waves were exactly this loyal creature looking for its companions, and Brook's existence made him feel deeply.
To be honest, it was his first time passing through here.
Although he had experienced countless storms on the sea, this place was full of mystery that he had never seen before.
Reverse Mountain, the huge barrier standing at the end of the ocean, was like an insurmountable barrier, appearing particularly majestic and incredible in front of him.
Brook stood behind Jin An, and also felt the shocking whale song.
His soul fire jumped violently in his eyes, as if he was deeply touched by something.
He knew that this voice came from his old friend, Laboon, the partner they once promised to return to.
Brook's hands clenched the violin involuntarily, and strong emotions surged in his heart.
Jin An's eyes changed slightly, he noticed Brook's emotional fluctuations, and glanced at him.
Beneath Brook's seemingly calm appearance, there were countless unspoken feelings and memories hidden.
The whale's persistence and loyalty were like a brand in Brook's heart, constantly reminding him of his past promises.
"Brook, we're almost there."
Jin An said softly, his tone revealing a hint of gentleness.
Brook nodded slowly, the excitement in his heart almost made him unable to control himself.
He had been waiting for too long, and today, he could finally see that familiar figure again.
The warship continued to move forward between the waves, and Jin An's eyes never left the front.
For him, the journey in front of him was not just to explore the unknown, but also to fulfill the obsession in his heart.
Reverse Mountain and Laboon were just a part of his long journey, but they were an indispensable part.
"Prepare to approach Reverse Mountain."
Jin An suddenly spoke and ordered the officers next to him.
His voice was firm and powerful, as if it penetrated the layers of thick fog and reached the ears of every navy.
The soldiers on the warship quickly took action, adjusted their course, and prepared to deal with the upcoming docking process.
Although they didn't know what would happen next, from Jin An's expression, they could feel the special nature of this mission.
The huge whale song sounded again, as if responding to Jin An's determination.
The waves on the sea became more and more intense, as if telling the mystery and danger of this sea area.
However, Jin An's heart was still as firm as a rock, he knew that no matter how many unknown challenges there were ahead, he was ready to face them.
"Let's go, Brook. Laboon is waiting for you."
