Near Dressrosa, on Green Bit Island:

After an art store was established here, many people who prefer the picturesque nature of this place come here via the bridge connecting Dressrosa and Green Bit to read manga in the art store located within the forest, rather than in Dressrosa itself.

This led to increased interaction between humans and the small creatures present here - the Dwarves.

The famous legends heard in Dressrosa about fairies who steal things now make sense...

Now, everyone knows that Green Bit is the home of the Dwarves, who, like other races, were under the protection of the Hunters Guild.

Due to this, they were able to coexist peacefully and without any problems. The Dwarves were truly simple beings, yet they could discern between good and bad. They opened up to humans without feeling threatened. This was a distant dream that had finally come true.

In their eyes, all human beings belonged to the race from which the legendary hero Noland came, as well as the legendary store owner Rob. That is why they still hold respect for humans, even if there are evil individuals among them who wish to harm the Dwarves.

Just like the people who created the slave list and set a starting price of 700,000 beri for their race at the auction.

The humans stared in amazement at the enraged Dwarves... or rather, they were supposed to be Dwarves, but inside the art store, they weren't.

The art store granted them the ability to grow to the size of humans through the "compatibility feature," which allows creatures of any size to become closer to origin.

Their furry tails and pointed noses gave them a cute appearance when they were human-sized, but beneath this cuteness lay tremendous power and burning rage... Only Rob knew that if these Dwarves were to permanently become human-sized, their strength would multiply tenfold. After all, they were twice as strong as an ordinary human even in their small form.

"Our race has been enslaved for centuries... it is ingrained in our genes, and we cannot forget it... Humans have committed countless atrocities against us."

At that moment, a man with a furry tail, a wagging nose, and a black beard spoke. He wore a royal crown. He was Gancho, the Tonta-Chief, the king of the Tontatta kingdom.

"..." His wife, Princess Sherry of the tribe, was also upset and saddened by the slave list.

Their sadness stemmed not from what would happen now or in the future but from what had transpired in the past because of this list. How many members of their tribe had been hunted down, enslaved, and auctioned off due to this list... Their number was uncountable!

That is why the Dwarves were filled with anger towards the World Government, who were the masters in the world of manga, but no longer in reality.

Princess Scarlett stood beside Sherry and began to console her.

"No one can enslave you anymore. Big brother Rob promised me that he would avenge everyone who has been wronged in the past in this world... Princess Sherry, you must trust me," Scarlett said sincerely.

"I trust you, Princess... The legendary store owner never lies! He is a symbol of our tribe and our superhero, just like Noland-sama!"

He had promised them that one day he would fulfill their dream... their dream of becoming human-sized and experiencing the world as humans do.

And he had already made it a reality for them.

...

New World, Mokomo Dukedom:

The members of the Minks tribe were filled with shock as they looked at the manga page displaying the price set for individuals of their race, starting at 700,000 beri. The same applied to Dwarves, Longarms, Longlegs, and Snakesnecks.

As they grasped the gravity of the situation, expressions resembling those of predatory beasts emerged on their faces. At that moment, if a human who intended to capture any member of their race appeared before them, they would tear into their flesh in furious retaliation.

"700,000 beri? How dare they regard us as mere commodities? Are we to be treated like vegetables or minerals?"

"Damn those humans! Howl~!"

"Enough! Rob-dono is human, too!"

"Damn the World Government and the Celestial Dragons! They are the ones behind this!"

"And the Navy... What purpose do they serve if they turn a blind eye to such atrocities!?"

Even the Mink children who had formed a bond with Rob were outraged by the revelations of their world's ugliness presented in the manga.

The One Piece manga served as a mirror to the world, offering them an invaluable wealth of experiences.

Gold and diamonds could never compare in value.

...

Elbaf Island:

"Really... What?!"

"Seriously? Ha!"

"Gegyagyagya!!"

"Gababababa!"

"Shishishishishi!"

"Digagagagaga!"

"Bojajajajajajaja!"

...

..

Each of the Giants burst into laughter upon seeing the price assigned to individuals of their race.

"Look, the price for male giants is 50,000,000 beri... Oh, this calls for pride, Gababababa!"

"Huh? Why is the price for females lower than ours, only 10,000,000 beri... Do they underestimate the strength of women in our tribe?"

"Look at our Gerd, she can easily crush some male giants, and Lily can devour the entire food supply of a kingdom in one meal. This price needs to be adjusted, Gegyagyagya!"

Rob gazed at the Giants who were laughing and mocking the slave list, feeling astonished.

"..." He was completely speechless.

This was not the reaction he had anticipated at all.

"Everyone should be outraged, guys... why are you mocking such a serious issue..."

Rob refrained from voicing his thoughts aloud.

Nevertheless, the strangely composed Prince Loki captured Rob's attention.

Beneath the smiling face and calm demeanor, he sensed an overwhelming anger.

Undoubtedly, when this giant appears in the manga, his presence will be nothing short of shocking.

...

Fish-Man Island:

Undoubtedly, the Fish-Men were the most affected by the slave trade depicted in the manga.

Their prices, along with those of the Giants, were the highest.

Anger and sadness overwhelmed most Fish-Men and Mermaids.

"Even humans... They don't show pity even for their own kind, so how can we expect them to feel pity for us, who they view as mere fish?"

"... Cunning little fish - Jamon."

King Neptune sighed as he read the auction chapters. What else could he do but sigh?

This unfortunate fate had plagued them for many years.

Otherwise, the childhood dream of the Fish-Men would have extended beyond playing in Sabaody Park.
