"One Piece" Events:

Marineford:

"Fleet Admiral Kong, Roger, and Golden Lion have made contact in the Edd sea over in the New World!"

The Navy headquarters received urgent official news that two powerful pirate groups had collided, causing great panic.

...

..

"I heard," replied Garp, a young man with black hair and some gray hair during this time period, coming out of the office after hearing the orders.

"Wait, Garp! We're not finished talking," exclaimed Kong.

"You may not be done, but I am," replied Garp.

"Garp, come back here!" Kong was still dissatisfied with Garp's response.

Garp closed the door of the Fleet Admiral's room behind him and left without further ado.

At that moment, a young man approached him, saying, "Garp-san, did you turn down your promotion again? That's so cool of you!" The young man was Kuzan.

"I can do as I please, so I don't need a higher rank," replied Garp.

"Tsuru-chan, let me come along if you're sailing out there."

"Nobody invited you to go, did they?" Tsuru, who looked taller than her future version, scoffed, but her hair was entirely white. "You'll break the ship as soon as you board, so I don't want you with me."

"Don't say that. I'll be the one to take down that damn Roger," Garp said with a smile.

...

..

"Garp! I was entrusted with the Shiki case!" said Sengoku, who was still an admiral when he saw Garp arrive, "Stay out of this!"

"Oh, never mind me. I'll let you take all the credit," replied Garp.

"That's not what I meant!"

"Bwahahahaha!" Garp laughed at Sengoku's awkward response.

"Wow, Admiral Sengoku and Vice-Admiral Garp are both going!" The vice-admirals were delighted to see this spectacle.

"Well, it is Roger after all. Garp-san just can't leave him alone," said Momonga.

...

The New World:

"Captain Roger!"

"Your life comes first, doesn't it?"

"Just this once, we should listen to what the Golden Lion says!" The young Buggy cried out in tears to change his captain's decision, but the young Shanks spoke instead: "Hey, your body won't let you die no matter how many times they cut you, so why do you care?"

"I still have weaknesses, you dumbass!" exclaimed Buggy.

"Oh yeah, Crocus-san! How is the captain's condition? He'd be better off not fighting, right? Please, medically relieve him!" Buggy asked.

"Unfortunately for you, he's in perfect shape!" Crocus replied contemptuously.

"Rayleigh-san!" When Buggy lost hope in Crocus, he turned to Rayleigh but was stopped by Gaban: "Just give it up. We've been together a long time, and we've never been able to stop Roger."

"No way!" exclaimed Buggy.

"Have faith in Tom's ship, the Oro Jackson!" said Rayleigh. "Roger doesn't have much time left."

...

"How many times have we had this discussion, Roger? A lot of things have happened between us, but let's put the past behind us!"

Standing on his ship, heading a huge fleet of ships, the Golden Lion Shiki spoke arrogantly, "We'll use that apocalyptic weapon you've found and my military might!"

"And then, with the perfect plan I've spent so many years developing, we can conquer the entire world at once!"

"Become my right-hand man, Roger!"

"I have no interest in conquering anything, Shiki!" replied Roger.

•———•———•———•———•———•———•

"This is... Flashback! It's Flashback!"

"Why does this sound so familiar? Isn't that the same line I said to Roger before the Larva Archipelagos War?"

Shiki's eyes widened, and his breath tightened at the sight of the scene before him. His huge fleet was besieging Roger's lonely ship amidst the turbulent sea! Would the Navy have intervened here too?

"Isn't this the turbulent Edd Sea?" Shiki wondered aloud.

"Stop yelling, Shiki. That won't change anything, Wororororo!! I heard that you suffered a cruel defeat in the Larva Archipelagos War. Today, we'll see the same results in a different war!" Kaido said, laughing.

"There's no doubt that if the Larva Archipelagos War hadn't happened, we would have seen the Edd War anyway. There's no escaping fate... I wonder what the outcome of this war will be... Will the ship's steering wheel hang on your head here too, Shiki, Wororororo?" Kaido laughed until his eyes teared up.

"You bastard, Kaido! Are you making fun of me? Take a good look at Roger's condition here! He's so sick that he looks like he's about to die! Unlike his status as a Pirate King in the Larva Archipelagos War, he doesn't seem to have any strength to resist! There's no doubt I will win. Just keep going!" Shiki ground his teeth before giving a logical answer.

"I just hope those bastards Garp and Sengoku don't arrive in time and get involved as they did in the Larva Archipelagos War!"

When Shiki remembered the events of the Larva Archipelagos War, he felt a strong hatred rising in his heart that would not be extinguished until the world was destroyed.

This hatred stemmed from the pain he felt during that war.

Shiki believed that he lost badly in the war because Garp and Roger were secretly intensifying their blows against him and his fleet.

"Haha, don't be angry, Shiki. You will take revenge one day," Kaido said.

"Kaido-san... why is Garp refusing to be promoted to Admiral?" King wondered curiously.

"That's just the nature of that man, Alber. Garp has a pirate soul inside the body of a marine hero," Kaido replied.

"Jihahahaha! He just hates the Celestial Dragons and does not want to carry out their orders, but he does not dare to disobey them openly. This man is just a coward. You will find out the truth about him later in the manga!"

Shiki despised Garp so much that he did not want to hear anyone praising him in front of him.

...

Marineford:

Sengoku wore a helpless expression as he said, "Garp... this is bad. This volume started off hot and exposed your refusal to upgrade from the very beginning! The Five Elders, Celestial Dragons, and that Lord in disguise in Marigoa might feel offended... there could be a backlash."

Garp just laughed, "Bwhahahaha!! As if I cared!" He continued munching on the mouth-watering candies he bought at the art store while reading the intriguing first chapter.

He too never expected to see such scenes in the manga.

Wasn't his grandson and his companions heading towards the Sabaody Archipelago?

Why did the manga storyline go back more than two decades without warning?

It wasn't just Garp who was wondering about this; everyone in the world was curious.

Zephyr chimed in, "Obviously, this volume belongs to that Golden Lion, so it will remember its own past. But I didn't expect it to start from the very beginning. That's pretty cool."

"Tsuru-chan looks so beautiful here~ oh, Kong-san also appeared for the first time! Isn't that Saul, Kuzan, Borsalino, and Sakazuki too?" Zephyr sighed, "Why haven't I shown up yet?"

Zephyr was disappointed that he hadn't made his manga debut yet.
