Gol D. Roger, Whitebeard, and Shiki have joined the chat.
Gol D. Roger: Ah, it's been a while since I've felt this kind of energy. To think we'd gather in a place like this, far from the seas…
Whitebeard: Gurararara! Seems like we've all got some stories left to tell. Even after all these years, the sea still calls to me.
Shiki: Heh, who would've thought we'd end up in the same chat? This is almost nostalgic, Roger. Remember the chaos we caused back in the day?
Roger: Of course, Shiki. Your Golden Lion fleet was quite the spectacle, but it never could stop me, could it?
Whitebeard: Gurarara! You two always were reckless, throwing yourselves into battles with no regard for your lives. But we all made our mark on history, didn't we?
Shiki: Reckless? Maybe. But you can't say it wasn't fun! The sea belongs to those who take risks, Whitebeard. You of all people know that.
Roger: It's true. What's the point of sailing if you're not chasing after the impossible?
Whitebeard: And you, Roger, had the audacity to actually find it… the One Piece.
Shiki: Tch, don't remind me. If I'd just managed to stop you back then, the world would be a lot different now.
Roger: But you didn't, and look where we are. The world is still spinning, still full of pirates chasing dreams just like we did. My time came and went, but the next generation is carrying on the will of the sea.
Whitebeard: Ace… He was something special. If only the world had seen him for what he truly was.
Roger: He was your son as much as he was mine, Whitebeard. He carried the spirit of adventure, just like I did.
Shiki: Kids these days… They don't know what it means to dominate the seas. No respect for the old ways.
Whitebeard: Gurararara! You're just upset because none of them are as flashy as you, Shiki.
Shiki: Maybe. But the New World isn't the same anymore. I hear stories about these young upstarts like Luffy, Law, and Kid. They've got spirit, but they don't understand the legacy they're stepping into.
Roger: They're making their own legacies, just like we did. Luffy, especially. I've heard about his adventures. He reminds me of myself when I was younger, chasing after something greater than himself.
Whitebeard: Hmm. That boy's got fire in him, that's for sure. But the seas are harsher now, more dangerous.
Shiki: Hmph. The seas haven't changed. It's the pirates who've gotten soft. Back in our day, we fought because we wanted to. Not for titles or bounties, but for the thrill of it all.
Roger: And that's why we were called legends, Shiki. We fought for freedom, for adventure. The sea was our true home.
Whitebeard: But now, these young pirates carry the weight of our legacies, whether they know it or not.
Shiki: Bah, legacies. Let them build their own. But they'll never top the chaos we caused, Roger. The world was in flames when we were in our prime.
Roger: It's their time now. The sea is vast, and the horizon is endless. Let them find their own paths, their own One Piece.
Whitebeard: Gurarara! As long as there are pirates, there will always be someone chasing after that dream. Let's see if they've got the guts to go all the way.
Roger: Who knows? Maybe one day, one of them will stand where I stood.
Shiki: If they can survive long enough, that is.
Whitebeard: And when they do… the world will never be the same again.
