One Piece: Lord of Disaster.

Chapter 201 The Roger Pirates Disband! A Turbulent World

As the world was awestruck by Roger's feat, at the edge of the New World, on this chaotic sea, a large ship suddenly broke through the water.

"Hahaha! I'm rich! I'm rich!"

Bucky lay on the deck with a blissful expression, or rather, on the thick layer of gold and silver jewelry piled on the deck.

Not only the top deck, but all the storage areas in the ship's cabins were now filled with treasures. In addition, everyone on board was adorned with various gold and jewel decorations, making each person dazzling.

This is precisely why the ship's waterline has reached a worrying level.

"With so much treasure, you couldn't possibly spend it all in a lifetime!"

Bucky chuckled. At only nine years old, Bucky didn't have any grand ambitions. Since Shanks was going to inherit the captain's position anyway, all he wanted was the treasure!
And this time, they returned with a full load!
"indeed,"

Not to mention him, even the usually precocious Shanks was a little excited at this moment, "We'll never be short of money again!"

"However, even with so much treasure, it is only the tip of the iceberg on Laugh Tale."

Jabba sighed with some emotion, "After all, that's the result of countless years of accumulation."

"I didn't originally intend to take any of these with me."

Roger sat leaning against the ship's railing, holding his daughter. "We've come at the wrong time. The people Joy Boy is waiting for aren't us, so these treasures should stay here."

“But that kid Roya said he doesn’t care about all that, he just wants me to take as much as I can, and he wants the rest.”

So, you feel you can't let yourself be taken advantage of, right?

Rayleigh found it somewhat amusing and pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses.

"Hey! Did they leave all the remaining treasure to that guy Roya?"

Bucky, who had been lost in his reverie, suddenly looked up, his face filled with disbelief. "Captain! Why did you let that guy off so easily?!"

The treasures they possess are nothing compared to the treasures on Laugh Tale.

Did they all go to Roya?

"Idiot, isn't enough money enough?"

Roger laughed and said, "This treasure is enough for all of us to live comfortably for the rest of our lives. What's the point of having more? Besides, we can't take any more with us. The ship is only so big."

"but--"

Pakistani was somewhat speechless.

Even if you can't spend it all, it's nice to just look at it!

Ultimately, who would complain about having too much treasure?
"Hahaha! In short, I won't have to worry about money anymore!"

Roger laughed.

All the pirates on the deck joined in the laughter.

Ultimately, who wouldn't be interested in treasure?

Only Rayleigh and Jabba exchanged a glance.

Roger, are you already planning for everyone's future?
That's the time.

"quack!"

Two bird calls came from the sky.

A small, white bird folded its wings and swooped down, dropping a newspaper as it flew over the deck of the large ship.

Jabba raised his hand and caught the newspaper without hesitation.

Then, he glanced at the newspaper, and his expression completely changed.

"Hey! Roger! Now, you seem to be called the Pirate King!"

"Eh?"

The people laughing on the deck were instantly stunned.

Then, everyone crowded in front of the newspaper, eager to see what was inside.

"What does 'One Piece King' mean? Does it mean the king of pirates?"

"We've found Laugh Tale, and the captain is undoubtedly a king who reigns supreme over all pirates!"

"How come these newspapers are so well-informed?"

"Don't make any noise!"

Annoyed by the crowd, Jabba leaped up and landed lightly on the top of the cabin. "Listen to me read it to you!"

"Cough cough!"

He cleared his throat dramatically. "Breaking news! The birth of the Pirate King! That's the title, hmm, a bit cliché."

"Let's not comment now, Mr. Jabba!"

One of the pirates urged anxiously.

"Don't rush, it's starting now,"

Jabba's lips curled into a smile, his tone slightly flippant, "The legendary final island truly exists, and that One Piece is real too! Gol D. Roger led the Roger Pirates on an unprecedented circumnavigation of the world! They reached the true end of the Grand Line, conquering the greatest sea route in the world!"

On the deck, everyone wore proud, radiant smiles.

Even Bucky and Shanks, who hadn't contributed much, proudly stood tall.

Jabba read the contents of the newspaper with a smile. No one spoke; everyone listened with smiles.

This is their story, and now it seems to be deeply etched into the history of this world.

"...Never before in the history of piracy has anyone accomplished such a feat! Without a doubt, Roger has obtained everything in the world! He is the undisputed King of Pirates, the Pirate King!"

Jabba closed the newspaper with a hint of lingering enjoyment. "One Piece...tsk, that was great!"

"One Piece!"

The pirates were already cheering.

"Captain! You're the Pirate King now!"

Buggy was so excited his body was trembling. He turned around and rushed over, hugging Roger tightly. "Hahahaha, what Seven Lords? They're nothing compared to the King of the Pirates!"

A monarch who rules over a sea area is indeed powerful, but compared to a king who reigns supreme over all pirates, he is utterly insignificant!

"Ok!"

Shanks nodded happily.

"but,"

Rayleigh crossed his arms, looked at Roger, and asked with a smile, "Did that kid Roya spread this news?"

"Ah."

Roger nodded slightly. "Who else could it be but him?"

"What's that guy thinking now?"

Jabba was puzzled. "He helped us make a name for ourselves, and even deliberately concealed his existence. That's not like that kid at all."

That kid Roya is arrogant and domineering. He carved out a territory in the New World, destroyed the Marine Headquarters, and publicly executed the Fleet Admiral. These are things that no normal person could do.

"Perhaps it's about wanting to obtain the treasure without taking any risks."

Reilly said.

"risk?"

Crocus was somewhat surprised. "What risks?"

"Now that you mention it, I understand. Now the whole world knows that we have obtained the legendary treasure."

Jabba flipped the newspaper over in annoyance, revealing the gleaming golden pictures to everyone. "I can send as many hyenas as they want, they'll come running."

"so……"

Crocus understood. Cold sweat beaded on his forehead and back, and his entire body stiffened. "Now, is the whole world focused on us?"

"Not to mention the whole world, but at least all the ambitious people should be getting restless."

Rayleigh sighed.

"How despicable that bastard Roya is!!"

Bucky finally understood what the adults were talking about, and immediately screamed in a cold sweat, "If that's the case, won't we be targeted by a bunch of dangerous guys?!"

"captain!"

Shanks looked at Roger with some anxiety, "Aren't we going to do something?"

We can't let that guy Roya get all the benefits, can we?

He was about to receive the greatest treasure, but he remained unharmed and quietly amassed a fortune.

The Roger Pirates obtained a pitifully small amount of treasure, yet they are now being watched by the entire world!

"This is what I discussed with Roya, so let's leave it at that."

Roger said that.

If Roya were to spread the word about everything on the final island, then Joy Boy's preparations would be in vain.

Im might start cleaning up the world again.

By then, things will have progressed to a point of no return.

This world may never have another chance to change.

"captain?"

Shanks was puzzled.

What exactly did they discuss with Roya that made the captain accept these conditions?

"in addition,"

Roger paused, his smile fading slightly. "I have something else to announce."

"Roger..."

Rayleigh's expression changed slightly.

"The Roger Pirates are hereby disbanded."

Roger said that.

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone on the deck froze in shock.

Even Jabba gritted his teeth.

then.

"Captain! What are you saying?!"

"How can we just disband like this? Captain, you must be joking, right!"

"That's right! The captain must be joking!" Forced smiles appeared on everyone's faces, but they still instinctively wanted to deny reality.

"I was serious."

Roger smiled and said, "The final island and the One Piece have been found, the goal has been achieved, and the timing was wrong, so there's nothing more we can do."

"Now the world's governments and ambitious people all over the world are watching us, and it would be too risky to continue sailing."

"Besides, I don't have much time left to live, and I want to spend my last moments with Olvia and Robin."

"Therefore, the Roger Pirates are hereby disbanded. This is the captain's order."

"..."

A sudden silence fell over the deck.

Captain, he's serious.

No matter how carefree and playful you are normally, everyone must obey the captain's orders when they are officially given; this is an ironclad rule for sailing on the high seas.

They had no choice but to accept this fact.

But children are different.

"Captain!! No way! Where am I supposed to go if the pirate crew disbands?!"

Bucky lunged forward and hugged Roger's leg. When he looked up, his cheeks were already blurred with tears.
"Without the captain, without everyone's words, I...I..."

"captain……"

Shanks was also moved to tears. No matter how mature he became, he was still a nine-year-old child.

Roger's pirate crew was the home he grew up in, but now that home is falling apart!
"You two,"

Roger patted their heads. "From now on, you'll follow Rayleigh."

They are both too young and not yet capable of standing on their own.

"Is everything alright, partner?"

Roger looked at Rayleigh, his tone suddenly becoming somewhat strange, "It shouldn't disturb your and Shakky's retirement time together, right?"

Rayleigh shook his head helplessly. "Okay."

"Now, let's begin the final voyage,"

Roger laughed and said, "Our ship will carry us to the very end, taking us all back to where we belong."

"...Yes, Captain..."

The many pirates on the ship were now sobbing uncontrollably.

This pirate crew is really about to end.

Later.

In a room on the large ship.

Only the three of them, Gold, Silver, and Bronze, gathered here.

"...This is the plan that Roya suggested."

Roger said, "I didn't say anything earlier because I was afraid everyone would be too sad."

"So Roger,"

Jabba reached out and grabbed Roger's shoulder. This man, who always seemed somewhat frivolous, was now trembling, his eyes glistening with tears.

"You've decided to do this?"

"Ah."

Roger nodded. "Just as Roya said, since we're not going to live much longer anyway, let's do what Joy Boy did and give this world one last push."

"..."

Jabba was speechless.

What can I say?

The man has made up his mind; all we need to do is support him silently.

"But there's one more thing,"

Roger said seriously, "Roya! That brat is too dangerous!"

"He possesses talent that surpasses everyone else; the heights he can reach are probably comparable to those of Joy Boy and Im! And now, he has also learned the secrets of the ancient weapons!"

"Fishman Island is his ally, and Wano Country has long been under his and Kaido's control!"

"If it weren't for his behavior, I would even think he was Joy Boy of this era, after all, he had a Lunarian by his side, and even the giants had become his allies!!"

Jabba and Rayleigh both nodded in deep agreement.

Is it a pity? Roya grew up in the Rocks Pirates.

"If I can't defeat him in the duel a year from now!"

Roger looked at his two most trusted partners.

“We will keep an eye on him.”

Reilly said.

"I was planning to retire to the Kingdom of Giants, but that kid ruined my dream, so I won't let him off so easily!"

Jabba was filled with righteous indignation.

"That's good."

Roger finally broke into a bright smile.

"But Roger,"

Rayleigh looked at Roger seriously, "Are you prepared to tell Olvia?"

"..."

Roger fell silent.

What to say?

However, regardless of the circumstances, the Roger Pirates, who had just conquered the Grand Line, were now heading towards their end.

Rewind a little while, and Roya is soaring through the sky, flapping his wings.

He huffed and puffed as he hurried toward Egghead Island.

Just as I was feeling a bit bored, a phone call came in.

"Roya, it's me!"

"Aunt Lingling?"

"Enough talk, let's get to the channel!"

Come again?

Roya was somewhat helpless, but he still slowly dialed the Den Den Mushi and entered the corresponding channel.

"Everyone's here, so I won't waste any more words. Let's begin the hunt for Roger once more!"

Just know.

Roya shook his head.

"I agree!"

In the last operation, Wang Zhi, who not only didn't participate but also secretly sabotaged things, was the first to excitedly respond, "Haha, this time, we have a reason to take action!"

"Hahaha! I get it, I get it! The legendary One Piece actually exists, and Roger even got his hands on it! Of course we have to snatch it from him!"

Silver Axe laughed loudly and said, "Count me in!"

"me too."

Captain John chimed in, “Who wouldn’t be tempted by a treasure of that scale? Roger, we’re probably going to be the target of all the ambitious people in the world this time. In that case, we certainly can’t fall behind.”

Charlotte Linlin snorted coldly, "Are you three bastards being so proactive this time? Are my previous requests really so insignificant compared to the One Piece?"

"What are you saying, Lingling? Your request is important, of course, but this treasure is just too much!"

"That's right!"

The channel was filled with laughter and cheerful chatter.

"Alright, these three bastards have agreed. What about the other three bastards, Kaido, Shiki, and Roya? What do you say?"

"I'm in! One Piece? I don't acknowledge that!"

"Mommy, Mommy! Very good! Kaido, that's the spirit I had for you! It wasn't a waste to give you that Devil Fruit back then! And Shiki, don't you want revenge?!"

"I don't care. Find Roger and then let me know."

"Mom, Mom! I understand. Roger is still in your care. And lastly, Roya, what about you?"

Luo Ya sighed helplessly, "Everyone else has joined, so of course I won't make an exception."

"Great! Mom, Mom! This time, let's snatch everything back from Roger's hands!!"

Ugh, what a hassle, I have to give Roger and the others directions again.

Fortunately, I had Roger's contact information.

Incidentally, this might also be an opportunity.

Of course, they weren't the only ones searching for Roger at this time.

In Mary Geoise.

Several groups of people in white suits hurriedly walked out of Pangaea City. The World Government's intelligence agencies began to operate at full capacity, determined to find the Roger Pirates.

At the new Naval Headquarters.

"All intelligence personnel, mobilize!!"

The newly appointed Fleet Admiral roared, "We must find the Roger Pirates as quickly as possible!"

"Furthermore, the scale of the massive conscription needs to be expanded even further! This era has begun to go berserk!"

But more often than not,

"I want to set sail too! I want to find the Roger Pirates!"

"All that treasure is mine! Roger, you just wait!"

"To the Grand Line! To the New World! To find the Roger Pirates!"

The whole world began to stir.
