AND THAT'S THE LAST CHAPTER FOR YOU! I might actually cry. It's been so long since I started this fanfiction and I can't believe it's FINALLY DONE! I keep feeling like it's not the end and that I have to keep writing, but everything has to end.

I've had so much fun writing this fanfiction and even though I know that my writing is not the best and can't even be compared to professional writers but I hope that you have all enjoyed reading this story (if you do, please share it to more fellow One Piece fans because it helps). I can't believe how many readers I have gathered by writing this fanfiction, it's definitely my most popular fanfiction yet and I just really love the supportive community I've experienced.

Some parts of the story you may not agree with, or maybe divert from the actual story of One Piece but do consider the fact that I might have written chapters before learning about the truth of it from One Piece. Sorry, bear with it. (I think the Yamato one is a controversial topic but I just chose to add her in because it would make the story more interesting. SPOILER ALERT: But I think with the new chapters that have come out it seems very likely that she is joining. Unless she's already in it...)

I cannot believe I have come this far with such a long fanfiction. It was meant to be a short story... two or three chapters at the most. Then it just turned into this epic plot that I just had to write down somewhere. Luffy's death was a vast emotional peak in the story that I was so excited to write because I felt like people might not have expected it? Anyway, I'm so sorry if I disappointed you with that, but I that was my goal :) SPOILER ALERT: Also, I realise with Luffy's new awakening, Gear 5, it does seem impossible that he could die at the hands of normal humans, but let's just say it's plot armour. Yes.

Once again, thank you all for reading this entire 68-chapter book (69 if you include the Author's Note). I know that I may have wasted your time, but I really do hope that you had fun reading my work and were satisfied with the ending. Please post a comment if you really liked the story or if you've been following the story since the beginning when I first posted Chapter One in September/October 2021! I think. I love you readers and just THANK YOU SO MUCH! 3

Yours Truly,
Hannah
