Chapter 20: Embarkation

Location: Random Island in the New World

"A sloop sailed in the territory of the New World. I didn't expect to be talking about it just now, but now I've run into it directly. Is it luck or coincidence?"

Roger, who was standing at the bow, looked at the sloop passing by and raised the corners of his mouth.

That's right, Varen and the Roger Pirates are about to meet here.

"I didn't expect to meet the Roger Pirates here. It's really interesting. Shall I board?" Seeing the Roger Pirates approaching, Varen couldn't help but smile wryly.

But luckily, it's the Roger Pirates!

The Roger Pirates have no affiliated pirates, and they do not occupy any territory. Although Varen killed many pirates in the New World, it is certain that he did not mess with the Roger Pirates.

But!

All these judgments are based on impressions, and this is a real world!

Besides, in Varen's memory, Roger seemed to have conquered a country directly because of someone's insulting words.

A pirate is a pirate after all, and no one can predict what will happen.

"Hey! Is that the guy who's been making waves in the New World lately?"

At this time, a young member of the Roger Pirates also ran to the front, excited to see the approaching sloop.

"Don't get too excited, an intern like you will die in an instant. Shanks!" Seeing Shanks walk out, Rayleigh also walked to his side, lest Shanks have an accident later.

Although he is only a trainee crew member, everyone has seen Shanks' talent, and Rayleigh naturally does not want Shanks to die prematurely.

At this time, Jabba, another combat member on Roger's ship, also came over and said with a smile, "Don't worry, the other party is not a fool. How could he take the initiative to provoke our Roger Pirates?"

"Indeed, but what to do is up to Roger!"

I don't know who said that suddenly in the crowd, and then everyone turned their attention to Roger.

As their crew members, they just need to follow the captain's arrangement. If Roger wants to fight, then they fight. If Roger wants to talk to each other, then they invite each other to board the ship. If they don't see it, then they just pass by like this.

"Hahaha! I really want to say hello to this guy too! Let's go and meet him!" Seeing that everyone was looking over, Roger laughed a few times and replied heartily.

For Roger, the most important thing for him is his brother, just like Whitebeard's most important thing is his son. As long as this is not touched, they will not show too much malice towards others.

"If that's the case, let's go straight up!" Rayleigh didn't say much, and after hearing Roger's order, he directly let people control the boat to go up to Varen's sloop.

"Does it mean to invite to board the boat?" Seeing the other party's actions, Varen also knew what it meant.

Seeing Roger getting closer and closer to his side on the bow, Varen didn't panic at all. Since the other party invited them to board the ship, it meant that there was no danger.

And he also took the time to glance at the people on Roger's ship. I have to say that the number of people in Roger's pirate group is really pitiful. There are probably less than a hundred people on a medium-sized pirate ship.

But almost everyone aboard exuded a very extraordinary aura, at least they were guys with a bounty of more than 50 million. Of course, those intern crew members are naturally not counted.

Even the weakest crew member has a bounty of more than 50 million. One can imagine how strong the Roger Pirates are. Although the bounty of 50 million seems a little small, it is also a dominant pirate group in the first half of the Grand Line. captain.

Even in the New World, they are also the core cadres of some big pirates, but on Roger's ship, such people are actually the lowest level of trash.

The combat members of the Roger Pirates are basically monsters with a strength of over 200 million, and the core cadres have a level of 300 to 400 million.

Boom!

The two ships were directly next to each other.

Varen didn't think too much, and jumped directly onto the ship of the Roger Pirates.

"A ship elf?"

Varen pushed his glasses back, glanced at an unnoticed part of the boat, and smiled meaningfully.

As soon as he boarded the ship, Varen felt the existence of the ship spirit on the ship. After all, he is a Shinigami, and it is very easy to see this little guy with a spirit body.

"Oh? Did that guy notice it too?" Seeing the direction Varen was looking in, Roger's eyes suddenly lit up.

Roger, who has the ability to listen to the voice of all things, naturally knows that there are ship spirits on board.

Originally, he thought that he was the only one who knew about this matter, but Varen found the ship spirit just after boarding the ship, which made Roger even more curious about Varen's identity.

Especially seeing that Varen is an approachable, gentle and perfect young man, Roger couldn't help but subconsciously develop a good impression of him.

But this is normal. Aizen could be the captain of the Soul Society and remain undiscovered for hundreds of years. It would be really strange for Roger to find out that something was wrong.

While Roger was looking at Varen, Varen was also looking at the man in front of him who started everything—One Piece Roger!

No way, this person's reputation is too loud.

This man who started an era with his life is no exaggeration to say that he is the pioneer of the future.

He is also the goal pursued by all pirates and a symbol of the pirate world.

It is very difficult for one person to be able to achieve this level, sacrificing oneself to achieve an era.

At least, Varen wouldn't do that kind of thing and couldn't possibly do it.
