Vol. 02 Ch. 01 - New era

Previously...

Arthur: "You'd better come down from the roof and join us for tea, maybe a few bottles of alcohol can also accompany you."

Rayleigh: "Actually I want to refuse, but if there is a free drink, of course, I will not refuse."

…

Arthur: " Why are there no screams that a new era is starting?" But after waiting for a while, Arthur still didn't hear anyone screaming to make him stand and step to the edge of the veranda.

Arthur: "HEY! PIRATE KING! What did you do with all your treasure? It's somewhere on the Grand Line, isn't it? You have it, didn't you? The greatest treasure in the world? Your one special treasure, ONE PIECE !?"

Roger: "HAHAHAHAHA … My treasure? If you want it, I will let you have it. Go look for it, I left all of it at that place!" The executioners were impatient and pierced Roger's body.

…

Rayleigh: "Thank you."

Arthur: "Why do you thank me, vice-captain of the 'Roger' pirate group, the "Dark King" Silvers Rayleigh?"

------- ^_^ -------

Olvia: "What do you mean by ONE PIECE?"

Arthur: "Like I said, a special treasure. If you want to know then you should go look for it on the Laughtale island. "

Rayleigh: "Not many people know about Laughtale, it seems like you know a lot. Coupled with the Haki you have learned, what do you want tenryuubito boys? "

Arthur: "Hey, my name is Phantasm D Arthur, and I want to be free to explore and find out about everything there is in this world with my wives."

Rayleigh: "You are a strange Tenryuubito, but thank you for giving Roger the chance to give his inheritance."

Arthur: "You're welcome, but I did it because it was necessary to start the great age of pirates."

Olvia: "The will inherited, the destiny of the age, the dreams of the people, as long as people continue to pursue the meaning of freedom, these things will never stop."

Maria: " Rayleigh boy, have you ever heard of Alpha after that incident?"

Rayleigh: "Maria, nice to meet you again. But sorry, I don't know of his whereabouts and no one has ever heard of Captain Alpha again after he disappeared. "

Maria: "Alpha, that person. Ah ... make people feeling upset. Olvia, let's go shopping, I want to change my mood. "

Olvia: "Uh ... I don't think there a shop which opens already..."

Maria did not care what Olvia said, she immediately pulled Olvia out. Olvia also knew that Maria's mood was indeed not good after discussing Alpha. Rayleigh let out a laugh when he saw that Maria had not changed after all this time.

Rayleigh: "Hahaha, now it's just us. So do you know what is the result of your question earlier? "

Arthur: "Of course I can imagine it, but I think the more people who want to go on an adventure in the seas the more interesting it will be."

Rayleigh: "You know that the ocean will be more chaotic after this, right?"

Arthur: "That will still happen as Olvia said, as long as people continue to pursue the meaning of freedom then the chaos will not end."

Rayleigh: "So what can I do to thank you for this drink? And I want to know where did you get this drink because I never drink alcohol like this? "

Arthur: "Oh, that's my recipe. But sorry, I didn't bring much and that's all I can give. "

Rayleigh: "Come on, I know you still have a few bottles in your room."

Arthur: "I want to give it to someone. If you want I can give the recipe. "

Rayleigh: "Who the hell is that lucky man?"

Arthur: "You will know later. But what will you do after this? "

Rayleigh: "I don't know, maybe I'll open a bar with my wife."

Arthur: "If you have not yet determined its location, you should open the bar in the Sabaody Archipelago, a place where all the pirates gather on the way to the new world."

Rayleigh: "Good idea, thanks. You certainly didn't realize that you had awakened your Haoshoku Haki, right? "

Arthur: "Eh ...?"

Rayleigh: "When you say One Piece, your Haki is pushed out even if only for a moment. So you should start training your Haoshoku Haki so you can use it whenever you want. "

Arthur: "Sebas, do you feel it too?"

Sebas: "Yes, young master Arthur. I felt it for a moment and was very weak, so I thought it was just me who misunderstood, I'm sorry. I failed as a servant of young master Arthur. "

Arthur: "Don't be too uptight, what is destined to be mine, it will still be mine finally."

Rayleigh: "Your Busoshoku and Kenbunshoku that's even though still at the elementary level, it is already very good for someone at your age. I will wait for the news telling your journey when you going sailing. "

Arthur: "Are you leaving now?"

Rayleigh: "Yes, I have to give Roger a proper burial?"

Arthur: "If I may, I also want to come. I will bring a few bottles of alcohol for him. "

Rayleigh: "Oh, of course, he will be very happy."

Rayleigh stood up and dragged Arthur in the direction he felt Arthur's alcohol bottle. Arthur was very curious about where Roger's grave was because Eiichiro Oda never mentioned it in the One Piece anime. Sebas left Rayleigh because he did not feel bad intentions from Rayleigh to Arthur.

Rayleigh: "But there was something odd about your attitude, hmm ... what was that?" Rayleigh asked after taking a few bottles of alcohol from a wooden box in Arthur's room.

Arthur: "I know that Roger gave himself and his life will not long again." Arthur felt no need to hide it from Rayleigh because sooner or later Rayleigh would realize it from Arthur's expression and attitude.

Rayleigh: "Ah ... there it is! I don't feel the slightest sympathy from you. Normal people will surely give the slightest sympathy if you see someone died even to an enemy. How did you know that? " Rayleigh stopped when he wanted to reopen Arthur's door.

Arthur: "Let's just say I can know the past and future even if only a little. If you're curious about my intentions, maybe my intentions are the same as most of the owners of the name D. To find the meaning of freedom."

Rayleigh: "Never mind, I don't care. Anyway, I'm retired, let's hurry to the marine base to get Roger's body. "

Arthur: "But I also wanted to invite someone who I wanted to meet."

Rayleigh: "Hoo ... he must be very lucky to have gotten a lot of your bottles of alcohol. Where is he?"

Arthur: "Are there only alcohol in your head? I don't know where he is, I don't know exactly where he is but we will meet him. "

Rayleigh didn't bother because he thought Arthur had a vivre card from the person he wanted to meet. After they left the hotel where Arthur was staying, the streets seemed to be not too crowd and the residents returned to their usual activities. Rayleigh and Arthur arrived at the marine office in Lougetown and were welcomed by a marine's admiral. He wore a black suit and a marine's 'justice' jacket, with afro hair and round glasses. Arthur immediately recognized him even though he still didn't have his trademark beard and hat.
