As Zara walked forward, she saw another water bomb flying towards her, and without a second thought, she lifted her sword and sliced it cleanly in half. The bomb was cut just in time, causing a torrent of water to erupt and douse the area of the ship.

Zara then made her way up to where the Sunny's head was, taking in the view of the open sea. She could feel the wind blowing through her hair and the sun warming her skin. Despite the danger she had just faced, Zara felt a sense of peace and calm.

Although she knew that was the case, she still felt like she needed to make sure that what she heard was true.

"Dafydd Vega!" She yelled as loudly as she could, her voice echoing across the ship.

"Is it true?! Is it all true?!" Zara shouted, her voice full of desperation and anger. "Is it true that you were going to kill me on my 18th birthday?! Is it true that going on those adventures was all a part of it?! Is my whole existence a lie as well?!"

She was shaking with rage as she yelled out her questions. "If so, then I quit being part of a Marine officer! I refuse to be part of an organization that would do something like this!" She declared, her voice full of determination.

With a quick motion, she took her Marine hat from her pocket and threw it into the air. She raised her sword and with one swift motion, sliced it in the air and into the sea. The hat was quickly swept away by the waves and disappeared into the depths of the sea.

Zara watched it go with a heavy heart, knowing that she could never turn back now. She had made her choice and was determined to take control of her own destiny.

She waited for the boss' reaction with bated breath and anticipation. When she saw the look of shock and anger on his face, she knew that all she had said was true.

Zara felt like everything she had done up until that point had been in vain. She was filled with a mix of emotions - anger, sadness, confusion - all of which were compounded by the fact that her entire life had been a lie.

All of the memories she had created with her friends, all the adventures she had gone on, were nothing but a part of a cold and calculated plan.

She took off her right glove and faced it towards the Marine ships. At the sight of this, all of the Marine soldiers screamed in terror, knowing that they were about to face a powerful force that they could not control.

Zara raised her hand towards the ships and uttered a few words.

She then yelled "Locker!" and suddenly all of the screams stopped. Everyone aboard the Marine ships was dead, except for one man - the boss.

He was trembling with fear as he watched Zara's every move. He knew that she had the power to end his life and he was powerless to stop her. Zara slowly lowered her hand and the boss fell to his knees in defeat, knowing that his fate was sealed.

The Marine ships stopped moving as if in surrender, with no one left to control them. The boss stood there in horror, knowing that his life was in Zara's hands.

She looked at him with a softness in her eyes and said, "Even though you don't think of me as your daughter, I still think of you as my father."

She felt a wave of exhaustion wash over her as the seawater she had accidentally swallowed earlier began to take its toll. She quickly covered her hand back with the glove, determined to stay on her feet, and to finish what she had started.

She felt a wave of peace and contentment wash over her as she thought of Luffy and the crew. She was happy that she could finally be free of the lies and the deceit. She was thankful for the courage that Luffy had given her and for the truth that he had helped her discover.
