Origin of the drug

-Kyuka Island

On the top floor of a building, Rocky was on the brink of collapse due to the pressure from the Agents and the drug.

*Knock*

*Knock*

¿?: "Good afternoon!"

Rocky: 'Who is it? Did those damn guys come back so soon?' He walked towards the door.

Rocky: "Yes, who the hell is it? And why are you bothering me now?"

¿?: "Room service, sir".

Rocky: "Room service? It's still too early."

The next moment, the door was kicked in, sending it crashing into his desk and knocking him down.

Dazed, Rocky looked up to see a peculiar young man entering through the door.

Johan: "Goodness... you're quite ugly. And the worst part is that you're short, Bahahah."

Rocky: "Who do you think you are barging in like this? Guards, come quickly!"

A few seconds passed, and the dwarf's expression turned to fear, while I had a smile on my face.

Johan: "Don't worry about them; they're peacefully asleep. But enough useless chatter. Tell me, dwarf, how did someone as worthless as you end up in such a big business that even involves the World Government?"

Rocky: "What are you talking about? World Government? I have no idea what you're talking about."

Johan: "Maybe this will jog your memory." The next moment, I pulled out a small transparent bag containing what looked like tiny grains... obviously, this was the drug they were transporting.

Rocky: "What! Where did you get that, you bastard? What did you do to Andrew?"

Johan: "Oh, are you talking about the lizard? Well... He's probably been eaten by a Sea King by now. Look, I brought you a gift, Bahahaha."

I tossed a bag onto the desk for Rocky to open. When he saw the contents, he couldn't help but vomit for 5 minutes. What was inside the bag was Andrew's head.

Rocky: "Andrew... No..., you damn bastard!" The dwarf began to shed tears; perhaps the pirate meant more to him than just being associates.

*Crack*

Without wasting time, I delivered a knee to his face, breaking his nose.

Johan: "Stop making a scene; I want you to tell me how you found the herb and the refining process." To intimidate him further, I sat in an armchair with my right leg crossed over the left and placed my pistol on the table.

*Sniff*

*Sniff*

Crying and with a minor nosebleed, Rocky began to speak.

Rocky: "Alright... I'm going to die at the hands of Cipher Pol anyway."

-One hour later

Johan: "Pfffhahahahaha. I can't believe how lucky you are, dwarf... Thanks for cooperating, Rocky. Goodbye for now."

Before leaving through the door, I raised my gun and aimed it at Rocky's head.

Bang

-In a restaurant on the island

So that's how it is... The stupid Rocky, sailing with his younger brother Andrew, stumbled upon a prehistoric island a year ago when they entered the Grand Line. It was called 'Little Garden.' In the future, 22 years from now, the Straw Hat Pirates will arrive on that island and encounter the giants Dorry and Brogy.

Being a lost island in time, they found various exotic plants and accidentally created a rather potent drug, which they quickly began to trade in Paradise. Afterward, they attracted the attention of the supreme entities of the World Government.

As such, the Celestial Dragons have the highest authority in the world, and after ordering the search for a way to torture their 'Pets,' they naturally acquired the drug through Cipher Pol.

Rocky and Andrew recruited people for the refinement of the drug and had it done on another island, as 'Little Garden' not only had enormous beasts but also 2 giants.

From that moment on, they began to traffic in small quantities to various kingdoms, kings, rulers, and even the World Government. However, their production was not very profitable, as they could only obtain 5 tons in 6 months.

Johan: "This is a great opportunity; I must become the trafficker at all costs. If I can get permission or help from the World Government, my profits will be much greater, and I can progress faster..."

Walking through the city, I stopped for a moment at a clothing store.

Johan: "Of course, what kind of person would I be if I didn't stand out?"

Upon leaving the store, I acquired an elegant black Homburg hat that matched my trench coat.

In the evening, after walking for a few minutes and turning into a rather dark alley, I was ambushed by 2 figures, one in front and one behind.

¿?: "Well, well, we have someone of high class here." A female voice came from the person in front of me.

¿?: "Shishishi, it's our lucky day it seems." Both figures lunged at me and attempted to stab me with their knives.

*Crack*

*Crack*

When the blades struck my body, they shattered instantly.

Johan: "It's rude to treat visitors like this... did you know that?"

Not a second later, I delivered a strong kick to the female figure's skull.

Crack

Due to the commotion, the other person didn't react in time, and I broke their neck with a strike to the throat. Both fell dead with a dry sound.

As I was about to leave, a smaller figure peeked out from the alley.

Child: "What have you done!... they were my parents." The child approached his mother's body, trying to wake her up, to no avail.

Child: "Monster, how could you!"

Bending down, I got to the child's eye level.

Johan: "Do you want them back?" I asked lightly with a smile.

*Tear*

*Tear*

Child: "Yes, please do it!" Crying, the child pleaded with me.

Johan: "Alright, as you wish." I took out my pistol and...

*Bang*
