Alubarna, the capital.
"Alas, must she still leave, Princess Vivi?"
Bell the Falcon sighed softly with reluctance.
"What are you so disappointed about, Bell? Haven't we already decided? We must support Princess Vivi's choice to the end, and cheer for Princess Vivi's new adventure!"
Chaka said.
"Bon voyage, Princess Vivi~ Enjoy life to the fullest~"
King Cobra wiped away tears from the corners of his eyes.
"And if you can bring me a grandchild when you return, that would be even better!"
Other cities in Alabasta.
"What does Princess Vivi mean by this?"
"Is Princess Vivi going on a journey?"
"The Princess has already sacrificed too much for this country!"
"Please enjoy your journey to the fullest, Princess Vivi!"
"We will definitely build this country well!"
The citizens, having understood, voiced their support one after another.
"However…"
Many also looked worried.
"The overseas world is too dangerous. Princess Vivi's safety…"
"Hahahaha, no need to worry at all! Haven't we already seen them? Princess Vivi's companions!"
"Exactly, exactly! A few days ago, Princess Vivi brought them to our city. I didn't recognize them at the time, but…"
"They are none other than the Air Force that caused such a stir in the sea a week ago! Captain Roland is even a billion-bounty big shot!"
"Wait a moment… Princess Vivi's friends… the heroes who defeated Crocodile and saved this country…"
"Yes! That must be it! Traveler Rolin and his crew are indeed the great heroes who saved our country!"
"But… why? Why are the heroes who defeated Crocodile being hunted by the Government?!"
"No! We absolutely cannot let our heroes suffer this injustice! Does anyone know a reporter?"
"Me, me, me… I have a reporter friend…"
For a time, Alabasta was filled with fervent excitement, and actions were swiftly taken.
At this very moment.
The coastal cliff of Tamarisk, East Port.
Princess Vivi dropped the Den Den Mushi, removed her princess hair ornament, letting her long dark hair flutter in the wind.
"Karu, straight ahead!"
Princess Vivi sat on her quick-running duck companion, pointing towards the sea ahead, giving the command.
"Quack~"
Karu the quick-running duck was fearless, charging with his fastest leg power, finally leaping off the cliff.
"Kyaaa~ Captain~"
Nami screamed nervously.
"Ah, Thor."
Roland shook his head helplessly.
The next second.
A rift opened in the space beneath Princess Vivi and Karu, and they reappeared, landing steadily on the deck.
"Princess Vivi, you, you, don't do such dangerous things!"
Roland raised his hand and gently poked Princess Vivi's smooth forehead.
"Ouch~"
Princess Vivi covered her forehead, her eyes welling up with tears, and then finally unable to hold back her emotions, she burst into tears, crying out loud.
"Because… because Mr. Roland and everyone left without saying a word, abandoning me! I want to travel with everyone too! Please don't leave me behind…"
Princess Vivi cried sadly, looking pitiful, like an abandoned puppy.
"Oh, there, there, don't cry, don't cry. It's all over now, let's not cry anymore~"
Nami quickly hugged her best friend, comforting her thoroughly.
Finally.
Under the repeated comforting of Nami, Kuina, and Thor, Princess Vivi finally stopped crying and smiled.
Fifteen minutes later.
The "Never Empty Army" left the Saint Ting Island sea area.
Alabasta in the distance was reduced to a small dot.
"What's wrong? Are you already homesick after leaving for such a short while?"
Roland noticed Princess Vivi's gaze and teased her casually.
"No~"
Princess Vivi shook her head, her small lips pursed.
"In the end, I still don't know the identity of that mysterious person. If it weren't for him, I wouldn't have met everyone. If he hadn't provided Crocodile's plan, perhaps now… He is also a hero of our Alabasta! I've always wanted to thank her in person!"
At this point, Princess Vivi couldn't help but sigh.
She was about to leave with Roland; she probably wouldn't have the chance.
Just as Princess Vivi was thinking this,
"Hmm, if you want to thank her, she's already here!"
Roland suddenly spoke.
"Eh?"
Princess Vivi was stunned.
"Oh, look over there, there's a big sister coming on a sea turtle~"
Kuina pointed to the sea nearby, exclaiming.
"Hmm?"
