Pirate: My Piltover technology is far ahead!

Epilogue 1 of Chapter 454:

In the hospital on Firefly Island, the gauze was peeled off layer by layer, revealing a scarred eye socket in Luo's sight.

The windows on all sides were blocked by thick curtains, and only a faint light entered the room.

"Mr. Yixiao, how are you feeling now?"

"It's been a long time since I've had this feeling, Dr. Luo. You look quite different from what I imagined."

The arrival of the reform era brought about many changes in the world, and some turmoil was inevitable. The remaining pirates and some royal powers, having suffered losses, ultimately chose to fight to the death.

However, these people did not cause too much trouble. The World Government, which did not hold back, quickly completed the purge by stationing high-end military forces at Reverse Mountain and Sabaody Archipelago.

After the first to stick their neck out were silenced, the rest of the people quieted down, and in the new era, different people made different choices.

Yixiao also prepared to see the world anew. If he couldn't witness the arrival of the new world, it would be a regret for him.

The techniques for both artificial eye replacement and repair surgery are now mature, and after Yixiao's inner transformation, the process is not complicated.

"Has King Oran not returned yet? I still want to see our King's true face. Although I have seen him in the illusion, there is ultimately a difference between reality and illusion."

"No, Minister Brand said it's a long journey, probably longer than any before."

"That's a real shame. Now that things have settled down, I'm going on vacation to see what this new world is like."

"Have you decided where to go for our first stop? Fishman Island is a popular tourist destination lately. Since the new era began, the Sabaody Archipelago has been under the administration of the Dragon Palace, and it's quite popular now."

"Not yet. That place sounds nice. Let's take a look at this island before we set off. I haven't seen it with my own eyes since I came here."

Starting from Firefly Island, Yixiao began his new journey, and he was not the only one embarking on a new journey on this vast sea.

Compared to the World Government era, the best-preserved things are Impel Down and the Navy.

Pirates on the high seas don't just vanish into thin air. The navy still plays an important role in maintaining order. Nowadays, the cross on the navy flag has been removed, leaving only the seagull, a symbol of peace.

The word "Justice" on the overcoat was also covered up. This was the result of discussions after the reorganization of the new navy. In the past, they had failed to live up to the word "Justice." Before they could truly regain justice, these two words needed to be covered up.

Compared to the old era, a new group has emerged on the high seas – adventurers.

Unlike the World Government's one-size-fits-all approach, under the new order, turbulent pirates and simple adventurers have been separated, and a few pirates have been given a chance to start anew and continue to explore the unknown on the mysterious sea.

The Sunny Merry also appeared in the waters off Totland.

The moment Laugh Tale was destroyed, Roger's actions could never be replicated.

Unless these people possess the ability to travel through time, it is impossible for them to return to that island. Upon hearing this news, Luffy did not fall into a negative state; after a moment of silence, he smiled again.

It's just an island. If it's gone, it's gone. Islands may disappear, but dreams won't. Our adventure isn't over yet, is it?
