One Piece: Starting with Sharingan, First Mate Uchiha

The New World, hundreds of nautical miles east of Beehive Island.

The sun had already sunk below the horizon, leaving behind a trail of dark red afterglow on the ever-undulating waves.

The Thousand Sunny unfurled its sails and sailed swiftly with the sea breeze, moving away from the pirate island that had been almost completely destroyed.

The deck, which was usually filled with noise and laughter, was unusually quiet at this moment.

Franky was inspecting the hull, Zoro was resting with his eyes closed against the mast, and Sanji was preparing dinner for the wounded in the galley.

The others also did not return to their rooms, their gazes involuntarily drifting towards the depths of the cabin.

Inside the medical room, Luffy lay quietly on the hospital bed, his chest and arms wrapped in thick bandages, his face still somewhat pale.

After being brought back from Beehive Island by Victor, he had been unconscious for a full day and night.

Chopper sat by the hospital bed, with a stethoscope and several sheets of paper recording heartbeats in front of him.

He would check it again every now and then.

They confirmed that the heart, which had stopped during the battle, was still beating steadily.

Fortunately, the most dangerous time has passed.

While Nika's power severely overtaxed Luffy, it also allowed him to recover at a speed far exceeding that of ordinary people.

If he just rests properly for a day or two, this idiot will be lively and energetic again.

"Really."

Chopper put away his stethoscope, unable to help but mutter a complaint under his breath:

"He had already retreated with everyone else, yet he dared to run back alone."

The final battle on Beehive Island still left Chopper feeling lingering fear.

At that time, Luffy was not only exhausted, but his heartbeat had also stopped.

If that ancient, domineering spirit had not rekindled the drums of liberation, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

Chopper sniffed and reached out to pull the blanket up for Luffy.

Just then, a faint voice suddenly came from the hospital bed.

"Meat……"

Chopper's movements stopped instantly.

He suddenly looked up and saw Luffy's tightly closed eyelids twitch a few times before he opened them a crack with difficulty.

"Meat...I want to eat meat..."

The next second, the entire medical room was filled with Chopper's joyful shouts.

"Luffy is awake!!"

The once quiet Thousand Sunny suddenly seemed to have been hit by a cannonball.

A series of chaotic footsteps echoed from the deck, followed by the medical room door being violently pushed open from the outside.

"Luffy!"

"captain!"

"You bastard, you finally decided to wake up!"

Usopp, Nami, Robin, Brook, and the others squeezed into the room almost simultaneously.

Franky was even stuck in the doorway, forced to bend over and peer inside over the heads of the other people.

Luffy opened his still-drowsy eyes and looked around, then grinned, revealing his usual smile.

"Everyone's here."

This simple sentence made Nami, who was about to berate him, pause slightly.

But thinking about what this guy had done before, the veins on her forehead quickly bulged again, and she raised her hand and punched Luffy on the head.

boom!

"How dare you laugh!"

"Why did they suddenly jump back to Beehive Island when they had already retreated to a safe distance?"

"Do you know how many people on the Sunny are worried about you!"

"it hurts!"

Luffy covered his head, protesting pitifully, "But Viktor is still there."

"You can't just run back without saying anything!"

"If I told you, you definitely wouldn't agree."

"You actually knew I wouldn't agree?!"

Seeing Nami raise her fist again, Luffy immediately shrank further under the covers and then looked to his companion for help.

Usopp promptly turned his head away, pretending not to see.

Sanji stood behind Nami, stating without any principles that Miss Nami was always right.

Just as Luffy was about to take another punch, Victor pushed through the crowd into the medical room and raised his hand to block Nami.

"That's good enough."

"Chopper just woke him up; knocking him out again would just waste medicine."

Nami gave a soft snort before withdrawing her fist.

Luffy's eyes lit up when he saw Viktor: "Viktor! You're alive!"

"I'm so glad I didn't let you down."

"Hehehe, that's good."

Luffy's smile widened, and then, as if finally remembering what happened before he fainted, he quickly asked:

"Where's that guy named Im? And where did the five old men go?"

"They've escaped back to Mary Geoise," Victor replied. "Red, Dragon, and Garp have left too."

"The navy has completed the evacuation. The prisoners and civilians on Beehive Island have been dispersed and taken away by various ships. Those who could be rescued have basically been saved."

Luffy nodded, then asked, "Where's Ace?"

The atmosphere in the room fell silent for a moment.

Victor knew what he really wanted to ask and didn't hide it:

"Ace is alright."

"He and Marco, along with the others, brought Whitebeard back to the Moby Dick."

The last image of Whitebeard standing amidst the ruins flashed through Luffy's mind.

He paused for a moment, then asked in a low voice, "Ace didn't go after Blackbeard, did he?"

"No," Robin answered softly. "He took his old man home."

Upon hearing this answer, Luffy slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

Blackbeard is still alive, and he has taken away Whitebeard's power.

This score will inevitably be settled again on the high seas sooner or later.

The brief silence was quickly broken by a rich aroma.

Sanji carried a pot of special meat porridge into the room. Luffy, who was still a little weak, immediately sat up straight, his eyes fixed on the meat in the pot like a hungry wolf.

"This is nutritious porridge prepared for the wounded; you are not allowed to swallow the whole pot."

Sanji warned with a dark expression, "Eat slowly, or I'll have Chopper sew your mouth shut."

"Don't worry, I'll eat slowly!"

Luffy snatched the spoon and, in less than ten seconds, poured the entire pot of meat porridge into his stomach.

Chopper stared at the empty pot, veins throbbing on his forehead: "Is this what you call eating slowly?!"

A long-absent burst of laughter erupted from the medical room.

The heavy atmosphere that had enveloped the Thousand Sunny finally dissipated somewhat as Luffy awoke.

……

An hour later.

At Luffy's insistence, Chopper reluctantly allowed him to leave his sickbed for a while.

The group regrouped in the restaurant of the Thousand Sunny.

Luffy was wearing a coat and had a meat bone in his mouth. Apart from his pale face, he looked much the same as usual.

Nami sat at the front of the long table, with several sea charts in front of her.

Robin then took out four waterproof black rolls from his pocket and placed them in the center of the table.

After the roll was opened, four dark red rubbings were slowly unfolded.

The sounds inside the restaurant gradually faded away.

Even Luffy, Usopp, and Chopper, who are usually the noisiest, couldn't help but hold their breath and look at the red rubbings with ancient script.

Zou, Whole Cake Island, Wano Country, and the last piece we just got from Beehive Island.

Robin explained to everyone, "I completed the rubbing during the evacuation."

"Although the stone tablet has fallen into the ruins of the island, its contents have been completely preserved."

Franky crossed his arms and grinned smugly, "Absolutely no detail was missed; this is a super perfect imprint!"

"In other words..."

Usopp swallowed hard, his voice unconsciously softening.

"Have we collected all four legendary historical texts?"

"That's right."

Robin gave an affirmative answer.

After a brief silence, Chopper and Luffy jumped up at the same time.

"Very good!!"

Luffy even forgot he was still injured, stepping onto a chair with one foot, his eyes shining with excitement:

"Then we can go to Laugh Tale now!"

"Sit down!"

Nami pressed him back into his seat, then pointed to the ancient characters on the four rubbings: "It's not that simple."

"Robin needs to finish the translation first, and then determine the four coordinates."

"What's more troublesome is that these stone tablets are from eight hundred years ago, when the islands, ocean currents, and even sea levels may have been completely different from what they are now."

Robin placed the ancient world map she had brought from Elbaf beside her and said with a smile:

"The data left by Dr. Cloba can help us reconstruct ancient geography."

"But the person who was truly responsible for finding that island was Nami."

All eyes immediately fell on the navigator.

Nami stared intently at the four crimson puzzle pieces on the table, pieces bought with countless lives, her gaze more serious than ever before.

From the moment she boarded that simple little boat in the East Blue, she heard Luffy talk about his dream of becoming the Pirate King countless times.

They didn't even have real pirate ships back then.

But now, all the clues to the end of the world are laid out before her.

Give me some time.

Nami raised her head, a confident smile playing on her lips:

"As long as that island still exists in this world, I will definitely find it."

Luffy, Usopp, and Chopper immediately cheered.

Sanji lit a cigarette, and Zoro rested his hand on the hilt of his sword, a smile also appearing on his lips.

Brooke gently pressed down on the brim of her hat:

"After being dead for so many years, I was so excited to actually see the legendary final island with my own eyes that my heart was about to jump out of my chest."

"Even though I don't have a heart anymore, yohohohoho!"

"This isn't funny at all!"

Usopp instinctively made a sarcastic remark, then touched the Elbaf amulet at his waist and straightened his chest.

"It's just the final island, and as a brave warrior of the sea, I'm already prepared!"

"The closer you get to the finish line, the stronger the enemies will become," Victor warned.

"The World Government will never allow us to reach Laugh Tale smoothly."

"Then let's send them all flying."

Luffy didn't hesitate at all.

He stood up, using the table for support, and put his straw hat back on his head.

The sea breeze from outside the window blew into the restaurant, ruffling the still pale but smiling face under the brim of the hat.

"Next stop, Laugh Tale!"

"I will find ONE PIECE and become the Pirate King!"

The familiar announcement echoed within the Thousand Sunny.

Viktor leaned against the window and watched this scene unfold.

Many years ago, the boy hiding in the wine barrel also said the same thing in the same tone.

Now, the last four puzzle pieces have all been collected.

They were truly only one leg of their journey away from that seemingly unattainable goal.

Just as everyone was immersed in excitement, Nami suddenly let out a soft "Eh".

She marked the preliminary confirmed shapes from the four rubbings on the nautical chart, then stared at one of the locations, her brows furrowing slightly.

"Wait a moment."

Luffy turned his head: "What's wrong?"

Nami picked up the ancient sea chart brought out by Elbaf and compared it repeatedly with the current New World sea chart.

A moment later, she pointed to the center of the nautical chart, to the dark sea area without any island markings.

"These four coordinates..."

"There's one, but it doesn't seem to be on the sea surface right now..."
