After two days of sailing, the merchant ship arrived directly at the Sabaody Archipelago. The journey was calm and peaceful, and they did not encounter any pirate attacks.

Looking at the island composed of 79 "Yalkiman Mangroves" in front of him, Roy once again marveled at the wonder of the pirate world.

After the cargo handover was completed, he declined the captain's offer to stay.

As the sailors gradually boarded and left the ship, Roy waved to them and shouted:

Goodbye everyone!

After saying that, he turned and walked towards the island.

Island No. 36.

Using the berries given to him by the captain, he bought a handsome suit at a clothing store and then got a trendy haircut from stylist "Tony".

Looking at his handsome face in the mirror, just like the readers', Roy smiled happily.

Eating his takoyaki, Roy walked down the bustling street, his arrogance causing passersby to give him a wide berth.

After all, in Sabaody Archipelago, which is so close to the Marine Headquarters, those who dare to be so arrogant are either Celestial Dragons, nobles, or pirates.

No matter how you look at it, the handsome young man in front of you doesn't seem like a pirate.

Roy walked down the street, his eyes narrowing slightly, a look of interest appearing on his arrogant face.

He then shoved the rest of the takoyaki into his mouth and turned to walk into the alleyway beside him.

In the alley, three thugs were kicking a green-haired boy to the ground.

The man relentlessly struck the fallen boy with his stick and fists, while simultaneously searching his pockets.

"Tezzolo, hand over the money in your hand."

Faced with the barrage of attacks raining down on him, Tesoro curled up, clutching the money tightly to his chest.

"Yo!!"

Hello everyone!!!

Faced with Roy, who had appeared out of nowhere, the thugs quickly stopped what they were doing.

When he turned around and saw that it was a child, he became even more arrogant and waved the wooden stick in his hand.

"Get lost, kid. This is none of your business. Don't go looking for trouble."

"NO, NO, NO"

Roy held up a finger and shook it. A cocky expression appeared on his youthful face.

"I love bullying people the most."

Upon hearing this, the three thugs were stunned for a moment, then flew into a rage.

"You little brat, you dare to play tricks on me? Do you look down on me?"

As they spoke, they all rushed toward Roy.

brush~

Roy dodged the swinging wooden stick to the side, clenched his right fist and swept it horizontally, then raised his leg and delivered a side kick, sending one of the thugs flying.

The remaining thug, seeing Roy quickly dispatch two of his companions, hurriedly stopped his charge.

Looking not far away, he saw a man with a distorted face, unconscious, and two companions beside him, clutching their abdomens and coughing up blood.

The remaining thug, holding a wooden stick, aimed it at Roy, his legs trembling and cold sweat pouring down his face.

"Little...little...brat, we are under the command of Wild Wolf Dokley. If you offend us, Boss Dokley will not let you off the hook."

"oh?"

"Dorkley? I've never heard of him."

As he spoke, Roy stepped forward, a gentle smile on his face.

He slowly lowered his head, leaned close to the ear of the thug who was trembling with nervousness, and whispered, "But if I take care of you here, how will your boss know it was me?"

Upon hearing this, the thug dropped the wooden stick in his hand, disregarding even his companions, and scrambled away from the alley.

"Hahaha...hahaha..."

Watching the thugs escape, Roy clutched his stomach and laughed heartily.

After laughing, he turned to look at Tesoro, who was still lying on the ground staring at him in shock, and squatted down, teasing him with a playful expression:

"Yo~~"

"This isn't future gold..." "Cough cough! Are you alright!"

………….

Tezzolo was born into a very poor family. His father was a gambler and his mother was an alcoholic. Because of the family's poverty, he was ostracized and bullied by others from a young age.

After his father died of illness, Tezzolo fled the family, facing a mother who despised him.

His days of wandering made him deeply realize the importance of money, and from then on he developed a strong desire for money. After losing all his money, all the friends he thought he had left him.

Until he met the girl who would change his life at the slave market.

Tesoro started working desperately to earn money in order to rescue her.

Even today, when the slave trader sends thugs to try and steal the money from his hands...

Roy's appearance gave Tesoro new hope.

Seeing Tesoro staring blankly at him, Roy also felt bored and got up to leave, but then he heard Tesoro's murmur behind him.

"Why are you helping me?"

"What?" Roy turned around in confusion.

"I asked you why you helped me," Tesoro, who had just been rescued from despair, hated his own weakness, unable to even protect the person he wanted to protect most.

"Haha, there's no reason why, it's all just the guidance of fate."

Tesoro looked at the laughing boy before him, a surge of emotion rising within him. "Fate? Was it fate that brought us together?"

"Take me with you!"

Looking at Tesoro, who suddenly had a serious expression on his face.

"oh?"

The future Golden Emperor? He's capable of awakening a Devil Fruit and possesses the business acumen to control 20% of the world's wealth. He's quite a guy!

Thinking of this, Roy looked at the young Tesoro with amusement, then put his hands in his pockets and strolled outside.

"Have you thought it through? Once you're on my ship, getting off won't be so easy."

The voice sounded light and airy, but Tesoro, who was on the ground, was overjoyed and hurriedly got up and ran towards Roy.

on the street,

Tesoro followed Roy.

"Boss, you just said you wanted to board the ship, are you a pirate?"

"No, at least not now."

"Hey boss, where do we go now?"

"Let's check out area 13 first; we might find what we need there," Roy said, stroking his chin thoughtfully.

"Okay, boss, let's go..."

Seeing Roy staring at him with a dangerous look, Tesoro wisely swallowed the rest of his sentence.

Roy never expected that the future Golden Emperor, who speaks with such profound depth, would have been such a chatterbox as a child.

Roy glanced at Tesoro, who seemed hesitant to speak, and waved for him to finish.

"Um, boss, what I meant was that we're heading in the wrong direction if we're trying to get to area 13."

Roy's expression froze, then he snapped angrily, "Then why don't you lead the way?"

Area 13, a lawless zone!!

Xia Qi's Bar with the Bamboo Knocking!

With a cigarette dangling from her mouth, short, curvaceous hair, and an alluring, mature woman's aura, Xia Qi was knocking a pirate to the ground who couldn't pay for his drinks.

After looting the pirate's money, they grabbed him by the collar, opened the door, and threw him out of the bar.

Seeing the pitiful pirate lying at their feet, the two who had just found the place were quite startled.

It's safe to say that no one who made a name for themselves in the Rocks Pirates is a simple character!

Xia Qi, who was sitting on the steps with a cigarette in her mouth, was looking at the two of them.

Roy smiled at Xia Qi, raised his hand, and called out:

"Yo~~"

"Hello, Miss Shaki, the treasure of the Rocks Pirates and the former Empress of Amazon Lily."
