One Piece: Starting with Sharingan, First Mate Uchiha
Chapter 513 This Time, It's My Turn to Catch Up with You
The sky over Elbaf was just beginning to lighten.
Morning light filters through the layers of branches and leaves of the World Tree, falling on the still somewhat messy middle-level village.
The banquet, which had lasted all night, finally quieted down.
A huge barrel of wine lay overturned beside the long table.
Many giants simply used their weapons as pillows and fell fast asleep.
The World Tree still retains the lingering aromas of roasted meat, ale, and campfire.
The port, however, has already become busy again.
The Red-Haired Pirates are moving supplies and inspecting the sails, cannons, and hull.
The Red Voss sustained some damage in the battle with the Blackbeard Fleet.
However, this did not affect the continued voyage of this group of seasoned pirates.
After learning that the Red-Haired Pirates were about to leave, Luffy practically rushed all the way from the banquet venue to the port.
"Shanks!"
He stretched out his arm and grabbed the gunwale.
His body sprang up instantly and landed on the deck of the Red Fosse.
"Are you really leaving today?"
Shanks leaned against the ship's side.
He was still holding an unfinished wine glass in his hand.
"certainly."
"Teach has left with the last piece of the road sign history text."
"Staying here will only give him more time to prepare."
Luffy asked:
"Are you going to steal his tombstone too?"
Shanks did not deny it.
He turned to look at the sea.
"We have already announced that we will officially compete for the One Piece."
"Luffy".
Shanks looked at him again.
"It started when I left Elbaf."
"The Red-Haired Pirates and the Straw Hat Pirates are rivals."
At the port.
The other members of the Straw Hat crew also arrived one after another.
Zoro leaned against a broken wooden stake.
Sanji lights a cigarette.
Nami, Robin, and Victor stood together.
Usopp hid at the back of the crowd, glancing occasionally in the direction of the Red-Haired Pirates.
Shanks raised his hand and pointed to the straw hat on Luffy's head.
"I won't be bothered by the straw hat you're wearing."
"I'll give you the title of Pirate King."
Luffy was not angry at all.
Instead, he grinned and revealed a bright smile.
"That's right."
"What if you deliberately let me win?"
"That's when I get angry."
Shanks looked at him.
"See you at sea next time."
"We probably won't be sitting together drinking like we did last night."
Luffy didn't hesitate at all.
"Then let's have a fight."
"Whoever wins, moves on."
Shanks paused for a moment, then threw his head back and burst into laughter.
"Hahahaha!"
Ben Beckman exhaled a puff of smoke nearby.
"You two make a war between four emperors sound as simple as fighting over a piece of meat."
Luffy immediately turned his head.
"We can't give up the meat either!"
Shanks nodded seriously.
"That's true."
"That's definitely not possible."
The two captains gave almost identical answers.
The surrounding crew members were momentarily at a loss for words.
Raki Lu silently hugged the fleshy leg in his arms and took a half step back.
Beckman ignored the two captains.
He came to Viktor's side.
"Shanks is serious now."
"Starting today."
"He will no longer stand in the back and observe the so-called new era."
Victor understood what he meant.
In the past, Shanks was more like someone who maintained the balance at sea.
During the Marineford War, he prevented Kaido from going to the Marineford battlefield.
Even after Blackbeard rose to prominence, he remained vigilant about Teach's actions.
Rather than fighting for a specific objective, Shanks seems more concerned about whether the ocean will spiral completely out of control.
But now.
He officially joined the fight for the One Piece.
This means that the already fragile maritime balance will completely collapse.
Victor looked at Shanks and Luffy.
"We weren't prepared to stop either."
Beckman smiled.
"I can tell."
the other side.
Yasopp is inspecting his spear.
He removed the magazine and carefully wiped the barrel.
Usopp came up behind him, but didn't say anything for a long time.
Yasopp noticed footsteps.
She turned around and looked at her son, who had grown into a man.
"I thought you weren't coming."
Usopp looked up.
"I'm just here to confirm."
Are you really planning to run away?
Yasopp smiled.
"It's not about running away."
"A pirate ship must always keep sailing."
Usopp fell silent for a moment.
then.
Yasopp left Syrob for the same reason.
He followed Shanks and headed towards the sea he longed for.
Yasopp did not offer any further explanation for the past.
No amount of reasons can make up for the fact that he was absent from Usopp's entire life.
"Let's meet again next time."
"You can yell for as long as you want."
Usopp immediately said:
"Who wants to specifically chase after you and yell at you!"
He raised his hand and pointed to the jewel.
The sound grew louder and louder.
"Next time we meet."
"I'll make you admit it yourself—"
"I have become a greater sea warrior than you!"
"and!"
"The Straw Hat Pirates' sniper will definitely be stronger than the Red-Haired Pirates' sniper!"
Yasopp did not laugh as loudly as usual.
He was just looking intently at Usopp.
"I'll be waiting."
Usopp had prepared many strong words.
But after hearing that reply, I suddenly didn't know what to say.
Yasopp raised his fist.
Usopp stared at the fist for a while.
In the end, she raised her hand and gently touched his hand.
Usopp turned to leave.
Suddenly Jesus called to him.
"Usopp."
Usopp stopped in his tracks.
But he didn't turn back.
"You've done a fantastic job."
Yasopp watched his retreating figure.
A smile appeared on his face.
"I……"
I'm so proud of you.
Usopp paused noticeably for a moment.
Then he deliberately sped up.
"You don't need to tell me that!"
The voice was loud, but no one turned around.
The other side of the port.
Saul handed the compiled copy of the information to Robin.
It includes ancient maps, ocean current records, and some of Dr. Clover's research notes.
All the originals remain in Elbaf.
The library administrator worked through the night to create a copy so that Robin could continue his research.
Sauro looked down at her.
"The books here."
"I will protect it."
Robin simply smiled and nodded.
She stepped forward and hugged Sauro.
"Wait until I get back from Laugh Tale."
"I will bring back the answers that the professor and his team couldn't find."
"To reveal the truth of the world and history..."
"Bring it back and keep it here."
Robin looked up, a gentle smile playing on her lips.
"At that time."
"Please continue to protect them."
Tears immediately welled up in Sauro's eyes.
He tried to lift his head to keep the tears from falling.
"Then I'll wait for you here."
"I will wait no matter how long it takes."
"Robin."
Viktor stood to the side, not interrupting their farewell.
After Saul released Robin, he looked at him.
"Victor, Robin is in your hands now."
Victor shook his head.
"We'll come back together."
Saul paused for a moment, then burst into laughter.
"right."
"You'll all come back together!"
Loki and Halding arrived at the port at this time.
Shanks visited Elbaf many times.
He also knows some things about Loki and Harald's past.
He did not comfort Loki with a sympathetic tone.
He just leaned against the ship's railing and laughed:
"You've finally decided to come out from underground."
Loki gave a cold laugh.
"If you don't come out now..."
"Your relatives are going to empty Elbaf."
Shanks rubbed his nose helplessly.
"Shamrock's affairs have nothing to do with me."
Loki looked up at the Red Fosse.
"Let the World Government people land in Elbaf next time."
"I'll shoot down your ship too."
Shanks laughed:
"Then you'd better rebuild Elbaf first."
"What if we end up failing to take down the ship?"
"First, you destroy a village yourself."
Loki's face darkened, but Hajrudin couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Shanks picked up his glass.
Loki also took a glass of wine from the side.
The two wine glasses gently clinked together.
The misunderstandings and wars of the past are hereby temporarily put to rest.
All members of the Red-Haired Pirates boarded the ship one after another.
Giants guarded the raising of the harbor gates.
The Red Fows slowly departed from the dock.
Luffy stood at the very front of the port.
He raised his hand and pressed down on the straw hat.
many years ago.
At the dock in Windmill Village.
He cried as he watched Shanks leave.
All he could do was shout an oath at the receding ship.
Someday.
He will form a pirate crew even stronger than the Red-Haired Pirates.
They will find a better partner than Shanks.
He will become the Pirate King.
now.
His companions stood behind him.
Zoro, Nami, Usopp, Sanji, Chopper, Robin, Franky, Brook.
And there's Victor, who has stood shoulder to shoulder with him all this time.
The Thousand Sunny was also docked not far away.
He already owns his own boat.
One's own flag.
One's own partner.
And the route to the Pirate King's throne.
So this time.
Luffy didn't cry.
They didn't chase after the boat.
He just grinned and raised his hand, waving it forcefully.
"Shanks!"
"Don't lose to others!"
Shanks stood at the stern of the Red Fox.
The sea breeze blew through her red hair and black cape.
"This sentence."
"I should be the one telling you."
"Luffy".
The Red Voss gradually sailed out of the port of Elbaf.
Shanks took one last look at the straw hat.
"I'll be waiting for you up ahead."
Luffy pressed down hard on his straw hat.
"Don't get too cocky!"
"I'll surpass you soon!"
Two pirate flags unfurled simultaneously in the sea breeze.
Shanks did not look back.
Luffy, however, remained standing at the dock.
Until the Red Fosse completely disappeared below the horizon.
This time.
It's no longer Shanks leaving young Luffy behind.
Instead, they are two pirate captains, each heading towards their own destination.
Luffy turned around.
The straw hat pressed down on his black hair.
Her smile was just as it had been many years ago.
"Let's go."
"This time—"
"It's my turn to catch up with him."
