The Supernovas Watch the Summit War. (Part 2)

West Blue, Gyangu Island:

This island, once known as the Bandit Island, was the last refuge for the remnants of the famous Capone Mafia from the past, which ruled the five families in the North Seas. However, that is now a thing of the past.

The North Blue, as the home to the Lord of Hunters, the greatest man alive, the author of the manga One Piece and the ruler of half the world, Rhodes D. Rob, undoubtedly would be the focus of the hunters's efforts to clean it up.

No longer could the Mafia, mercenaries, or pirates cause any waves here.

Including the current leader of the Capone family, Capone Gang Bege, "Sigh~ I have no hope of restoring the family's glory."

"Comrades, why don't we become traders or farmers? Let's rebuild the Capone family with a good reputation."

In one of the quiet bars on Gyangu Island, Capone Bege and those with him were reading the manga through the leaked chapters from the nearest island's art store, Kano Country.

"That's a great idea, Captain... at least we'll get more challenges in life."

"Although a life of leisure suits me, I can't bear it any longer than this."

"I agree too, Captain. Let's do something."

"Me too - oh! Your counterpart appeared again in the manga, Captain!"

"Really!?"

Hearing that, Capone Bege accelerated his reading pace of the manga. When he saw his counterpart again, he felt extreme excitement.

"This is fantastic, it seems my counterpart trusts in Whitebeard's reputation~"

"Well, well, at least my counterpart doesn't suffer from the limitation of his criminal activities like me..."

"But becoming a pirate in the era of hunters isn't a good idea; once I declare that, I'll find myself accompanying my father in the central prison."

…

"Is it time to descend into the vast Blue Sea?"

Tens of kilometers above the sea level, on the Sky Island of Birka, the famous priest Urouge felt that the world below was calling him more than ever.

"The God does not wish for your departure. Becoming a pirate will bring a bad reputation to our homeland."

"Also, you're not strong enough to stand against the system below. The world there is divided into two worlds; it's impossible to stand even against the World Government, let alone the hunters association."

The person speaking with Urouge was the God of Birka himself, who had met Rob personally several times.

"Hehe~ do you think I live according to your wishes, or do you think you're a real god?"

"If I want to do something, no one can change my mind except me-"

Before Urouge finished his words, a certain scene in the manga caught his attention.

"Fufufu~ interesting, this is my second appearance in the manga."

"It seems everything is fine for my counterpart~"

"If that's the case for him, what's stopping me from descending into the Blue Sea?"

…

Yellow Stone Island:

Inside a small house away from the noise of the art store, Little Basil Hawkins was somewhat excited since the beginning of the Summit War in the manga.

In his hand, he held the new volume 'Summit War' that his older sister bought from the art store this morning.

Since being recognized as Little Hawkins, it had become difficult for him to attend places where many people gathered, so he preferred solitude recently.

"What happened after the siege of Whitebeard and Luffy in the steel walls?"

His older sister, Archa-san, spoke, curious at this moment.

"Even Whitebeard couldn't destroy this steel wall; it must contain Kairoseki... There's only one gap left for them to enter the gulf, where Oars fell before." Hawkins said calmly.

"Oh~ I guess the Marines have put a lot of protection on that gap, right?"

"That's natural... Oh, I forgot to tell you, my counterpart appeared again."

"Really!"

Quickly, his older sister left everything in her hands and took the manga volume from him.

She scanned through the pages one by one until she reached the scene where Basil Hawkins appeared again.

"Hmm, he seem to be in good health... Thank goodness, it seems Admiral Kizaru has given up chasing him."

"That's true..."

"Hmm, it seems your counterpart has succeeded in calculating the survival rate of Whitebeard's pirates from the Summit War. What do you think?"

"Total loss." Little Hawkins said, looking at one of his cards, leaving Archa somewhat speechless.

…

South Blue, Sorbet Kingdom:

"I know why she's crying..."

Little Bonney spoke with a sad expression.

"I know that too." Kuma nodded before gently patting his little princess's head.

"We know the reason too." Ivankov added gently.

Of course, they knew why Bonney was crying in the manga; after all, how could she not cry when she saw her father turned into a complete metal piece without consciousness.

Add to that the dozens of cold robots cloned from him, each of which could see her father in them.

How could she not cry after seeing all that? It confirmed her father's death and perhaps she went out to sea to search for him in the first place.

"It's okay, everything will be alright, my dear."

With a lovely smile on his face, Kuma comforted his crying daughter, just like her counterpart in the manga.

…

North Blue, Flevance Country:

In this country that changed a lot in the manga era, the inhabitants who took the Amber Lead vaccine and officially healed from the disease they suffered through the ages were enjoying a new era dominated by the One Piece manga.

This was a story narrated to them by the first human hunter, Rob, at present, just like a story that happened in the past narrated by the first human pirate at that time, Joy Boy.

Whether in the past or the future, One Piece still maintained its essence as a story; only the protagonist differed across generations.

But both stories weren't just about the protagonists; sometimes, side characters could play an important role, just like Trafalgar D. Water Law.

"Do you think our son will go to the new world directly?"

In the presidential palace, Mary, holding a newborn between her arms with unprecedented tenderness, asked.

"Maybe yeah, maybe not... Who knows."

"But I have a feeling we'll see him in Marineford one way or another; he might provide great help to Luffy..."

Saying that, Chris looked at his son, who hadn't even completed his first month yet.

This was Trafalgar D. Water Law, who was just born.
