Chapter 2 – Open the path for the New Generation
"Roger. . . . " the man call out Roger " What's this all about YOU BRAT!!??"
"Bwahahahahahahaahahahaha " Roger just laugh at the man when he heard this question before finishing his sentence "Don't be so serious . . . . Oyaji"

"Sigh" the man sigh to himself, took of his mask and pull down his hood. As the hood was pull down, a beautiful silky long black hair fall down with it covering the man back. His feminine but handsome face was also revealed to the two of them, the only thing that make his face a little more 'manly' is a subtle beard that was on his face.
"*whistle* If I don't know any better I will thing that you are just a girl with a mustache old man Bwahahaha. Since when did you learn to keep it?" Roger said as whistle, making fun of the man in front of him and it was successful enough to make a vein pop out of the man forehead.
*thud*
Earning him a hit on the head from the man
"Ow ow, what the hell old man? How can you do that to a sick person like me?" Roger rub his head where the man hit him.
"Shut up Roger, even if you are jealous of my handsome face there no use making fun of it. It will only make you look more hideous" The man retort at him
"Tch, Atleast I have a wife" Roger mumble to himself, but unlucky for him it is not low enough as the clearly hear him. earning another beating of his life.

All the way through Garp was just there sitting not far away from them steali- *cough* borrowing the gourd the man pulled out and enjoy what in side of it while enjoying the ridiculous scene of 'The pirate king was beaten by an unknown man'.
*BAAM*
"THAT IS MY DRINK YOU STUPID MONKEY!!" The man suddenly appear infront of Garp and smash him to the floor and grab to gourd from his hand.
After the whole fiasco was over they all sit in silent enjoying the drink, the only sound was heard is the sipping noise and Garp eating his rice cracker that he pull out of his ass -I mean- jacket.
". . . I've only been away for 10 years Roger, what the hell are thinking in your head to surrender yourself like this. Are you so eager to die?" Roger want to said something but was cut of " Don't give me bullshit like 'The hero marine capture me to be executed' you know better than me, even if lose your arm and leg each, you can still kill this Monkey" The man said while pointing to his side at cracker eating man making him choke
"Aww you're making me blush old man Bwahahaha-guh"
"What the F*ck Roger, are you holding back on me all this time? Where did 'you and I have nearly killed each other countless time and even fight together sometime' go? You!!!" Garp grab Rojer shirt and shake him hard, while imitating Rojer style of speech when he said those word.
"Oy oy, calm down Garp don't listen to this stupid old man" Roger retort back and the duo continue their bicker until finally the both of them calm down.
"Sigh, can I know why do you want to this Roger"
"I'm already at my last breath old man" Roger said as he look down at his hand that was as pale as paper.
" That's why I'm here Roger, though this thing can't fully cure you it can stop your body from continue to worsing" The man said as he show Roger a chunk of gold " This is called pure gold, It's quite a hassle to find this thing because the island itself was shallow by a 'giant fish' we can continue to diagnose you illness once I brought you to the father daughter that I save in the fish. Apperantly the daughter also has the same illness as you." The man continue, and the atmosphere is now more serious.
Everyone was silent, when Roger lift his head and stare at the man with an ear to ear grin
"Bwahahahaha, old man. I already told you back then that you didn't need to do these thing" Rojer said as his eye turning slightly red " If I want to live longer I will follow Crocus advise and take his medicine, after all he's still my trusted doctor on the ship. But I don't, it's not that I don't want to live longer than now. I want to, I want to see my son grow up, I want to be with my wife, my crew. But I don't, do you want to know why old man?"
The man was silent as listen and didn't answer. So Rojer continue
"It's because of what I see on 'that' place, the last island, the end of grandline. I was to early for all of this and the 'person' to do so hasn't been born yet. We all are to early for this. . . . . . .
The future ahead of this world is bleak if everyone in this world is ignorant on what is happening behind the scene. No screw that, My SON FUTURE is bleak if everyone is ignorant of it. Old man, there will be a war in the future. A War that I predict to be far, far bigger than the one you once told me about that will change the landscape of this world.
And I can't take part in any of that with my weak body. The least I can do is to open a path for the new generation that has my will by setting a GOAL for them to achieve." Rojer said as he stare straight into the man eye
By this time, Garp already stop eating and focusing on the talk.
". . . . . And what about the future of 'My son' Rojer, Don't you think it's unfair to me? You did all this for you're the future of your son, but what about 'My son'? The brat that I pick up and raise to become an amazing person, and now I have to watch him die even before me?" the man said with his head down, hair cover his face and cigar in his mouth
" . . . Sooner or later you will have to watch 'Your son' die eventually old man. Your youth is a blessing as it the same as a curse, you have live long enough to understand what I mean by that. " As Rojer said this his grin slowly come back
"Soo I think it's better to see 'Your son' dying as a man that was worship by many rather than on the dead bed right? Bwahahahahahahaha, at least it was befitting for great man like you to witness his son honorable death" Rojer grin become the larger as he said this.
The man was just silent the whole time Rojer spoke, Garp is in state of shock from what he just hear this entire time.
The then put back on his hood and slowly stand up and making his way out of the room leaving the bottle of gourd behind.
"Bring this to the stage" the throw the white mask that he's wearing at rojer "The day of your passing, is the day that I'm done hiding on the public eyes. My title as the Shadow King will follow you to your afterlife, it's the least I can do for you."
Rojer grab the Mask in his hand and clench it tightly. A single tear start falling from his eye, he then did a dogeza despite the dirty floor.
"Thank you for everything Oldman
Thank you for all your teaching
Thank you for all the care you put on me
Thank you for making me this strong
Thank you for making me accomplish my dream
And. . . . . . .
THANK YOU FOR GIVING ME THE FAMILY THAT I NEVER HAD…..
POPS." 'you're the greatest father that I ever had' he said the word at the end silently
The man step pause for a moment before continue walking
" Shut up brat, I'm still 'The Worst father'" the man mutter to himself
Rojer is still in his position until the man disappear from their sight, only then did get up and sit normally still holding the white mask in his hand
"Roger. . . . Who is that man?"
". . . . Amagami D. Yuuto, the world 'worst' father"

Level one, impel down
Standing outside the gate glancing at the sea, the man known as Yuuto just stand there enjoying the breeze and smell of ocean.
Suddenly a yellow flash is fast approaching Yuuto in the speed of light. But he is still standing there as if not caring at all, with a swing of his staff like he is swatting a flies. The yellow flash was smash by it.
*bang*
On the crash site you can see a man with a funny face and a broken nose a sunglass lying there unconscious with a foam on his mouth.
"Sigh. . . . That bastard of a child. The future my ass, you only want a cool dead. Just admit it"
