After returning to Athena, Arthur found Ikaros was gone. He knew that Makino often met with Ikaros and chatted a lot because Ikaros kept asking curiously. Ikaros, who was created with the power of Arthur's devil fruit, does not have any memory or knowledge. She only knew that she was born from a part of Arthur's soul using [Soul Art].
Arthur: "I knew you would be here." Arthur discovers Ikaros is helping Makino in serving her bar visitors.
Makino: "Oh, Arthur, welcome. How are Luffy and the others? "
Ikaros: "Welcome, father." Ikaros who saw Arthur entering the bar immediately ran towards him leaving customers who wanted to order food.
Arthur: "Oh, Ikaros, I hope you don't bother Makino. Regarding Luffy and the others, they are fine. But I want to know, how much did you pay Ikaros to work here, Makino? " Arthur sat on the barstool after stroking Ikaros's hair.
Makino: "Instead of just waiting on the boat and reading endless books, it's better to move her body. And when the customers were busy she decided to help me. " Makino put a glass of drink in front of Arthur.
Arthur: "I came here to say goodbye, I will leave before Tenryuubito comes to this island."
Makino: "Eh, you want to go? Can't you stay a bit longer? " Makino was a little surprised by Arthur who wanted to leave.
Major: "From the beginning, I told you to leave this island immediately, cough ... but you better leave Ikaros to stay here." The Major who sat at one of the tables suddenly spoke.
Villager: "That's right, don't let Ikaros-Chan go." Many villagers want Ikaros to stay.
Arthur: "Hoh ... it seems like there are a lot of your fans here, Ikaros."
Ikaros: "Are you jealous, father? Is this what a says that a father does not want to let go of his daughter? Or, do you want to have a relationship called 'Incest' with me? "
Ikaros's question made Arthur want to squirt his drink from his mouth but managed to swallow it. But not the customers who heard Ikaros's question, they all fell after spewing food and drink from their mouths. Makino only shook her head because she knew the character of Ikaros after a few weeks close to her. The major immediately ran towards Arthur giving an unending lecture to Arthur's ears. But finally, Arthur was able to escape the anger of the villager with Ikaros who took him flying back to Athena.
Robin: "Arthur, finally you are back. What is wrong with you?" Robin saw Arthur who looked unusual and a little tired.
Arthur: "Next time if you want to give a book to Ikaros, you have to tell me what that book is."
Robin: "Fufufu, I don't understand what you mean. Ikaros, we will continue our study later. " Robin laughed with another intent.
Ikaros: "Yes, I understand."
Hancock: "Arthur, come in now, the others are waiting for you." Hancock shouted from inside the ship.
ASL found Arthur and the others had left after they woke up, even the house and the obstacle course disappeared without a trace. They can only go through the days as usual and go to Gray Terminal, where they meet with Neguri and the story goes not much different from the story in Anime. It's just the one who caught and taken hostage by the Bluejam Pirates to lure Sabo is just Luffy, because Ace managed to fight back. But in the end, Sabo decided to come back with his father for the safety of his two brothers. The day before the Gray Terminal arson incident, Arthur gathered all of his crew members.
Hancock: "So what exactly have you been waiting for? You don't want to deal with Tenryuubito but you are waiting for him to come to this island. " Not only Hancock wanted to know, but everyone also wanted to know what Arthur wanted.
Arthur: "I'm waiting for the day of Sabo's death."
All: "Ha !?" That one sentence shocked everyone.
Ikaros: "Do you want me to find a flower bouquet for Sabo?" Ikaros's question made them take a deep sigh and calm down.
Robin: "So what's your plan, Arthur?"
Arthur: "Monet, what is the maximum distance you can jump without having to rest?" The power of Monet's devil fruit is very much needed for Arthur's plan because Law's ability is still not strong enough now.
Monet: "I can jump 20 km if forced, but if you want me to jump several times in a row, then my limit is 3 km."
Arthur: "That's far from enough, so here's my plan ..." Arthur immediately explained his plan to them.
Right on the day of the Gray Terminal burning incident, Arthur went to the Kingdom of Goa to meet someone. Although the residents of the Goa kingdom knew about the Gray Terminal burning plan, they still carried out their daily activities as usual. And that night was very bright with a blazing fire, Arthur walked into an alley to find Sabo and the person he wanted to meet. Sabo who wanted to pass out but managed to see Arthur immediately said something.
Sabo: "Sensei ... it is the royal families and nobles who set this fire ... the city is worse than the Gray Terminal ... the residents are more rotten ... If I stay here I will never be free. I am very ashamed to have been born as a nobleman. " Sabo passed out right after that.
Arthur: "Did you hear that, Monkey D Dragon?" Arthur caught Sabo and asked without looking away.
Dragon: "I didn't expect to see you here, do you also have the same feeling because you left your World Noble title too, Tenryuubito, Amenome Arthur?"
Arthur: "You can say it like that, so what do you want? Did you just walk around visiting your hometown? "
Dragon: "Besides my name, it seems like you also know that I was born in this kingdom. I didn't expect that they would finally make a child say something like this, Goa Kingdom. However, I still don't have the strength to revolutionize this country. And you, what do you want? "
Arthur: "I just want to go around the world and see its contents, but I might also be able to complete the ambitions of my ancestors to improve the existing World Government and World Nobility system." Arthur answered while covering Sabo's wound with the bandages he was carrying.
Dragon: "Then, come with me, I also want to meet with Nico Robin who is in your crew." Dragon held out his hand to invite Arthur to join him.
Arthur: "This isn't the time yet, but if you need my help, you can contact me." Arthur put Sabo after finishing the treatment and threw the Den-Den Mushi at Dragon.
Dragon: "It seems like you know this child, don't you want to bring him with you?"
Arthur: "It's not the right time either, this kid is stronger than you think. While you are here you should also meet your child, maybe even Luffy doesn't know what dad is. See you next time. "
Arthur walked away leaving Sabo and Dragon, but Dragon also went straight to his friends who were waiting on the ship to save the citizens who were trapped by fire in the Gray Terminal. In the end, the wheel of destiny continues to spin, but this time it is unknown where this destiny will move. The day of Tenryuubito's arrival has come, Athena and Art Pirates, who had not sailed for a long time, moved towards the open sea.
