XX-level Hokage

The Navy stole the "treasure" from Beehive Island, and the Celestial Dragons decided to use it as a prize to start a hunting competition. The Rocks Pirates learned that the "treasure" would appear in God Valley, so they planned to go and seize it.

The Knights of God, the Navy, the Roger Pirates, and the Rocks Pirates. A chaotic battle ensued.

At God Valley, Garp and Roger unexpectedly meet. Due to the strength of the Rocks Pirates, the two decide to temporarily join forces to deal with Rocks. In the end, the Rocks Pirates are defeated, Garp is hailed as a "Marine Hero", the Roger Pirates get their revenge, and the Rocks Pirates fall apart.

The God Valley Incident ended, but its effects continue to this day. Roger becoming the Pirate King.

Six years ago, Roger, at the age of 49, unexpectedly learned that he had contracted an incurable disease and decided to embark on his final voyage on the Grand Line with his crew. When passing the lighthouse at Reverse Mountain, he invited Crocus to serve as the ship's doctor to ensure that his body could successfully complete the journey.

In the same year, Roger refused Shiki's request to join forces and rule the world. Enraged by the rejection, Shiki was furious, and a fierce battle ensued between the two pirate crews.

The battle is known as the Battle of Att Volt.

The Roger Pirates, who were originally at their wits' end, were saved by a sudden storm, while most of Shiki's pirate fleet was sunk to the bottom of the sea. It was a great victory and an important step forward for Roger to become the Pirate King.

Four years ago, Roger was 51 years old. The Roger Pirates encountered the Whitebeard Pirates and fought fiercely for three days without a clear winner.

In order to learn the true history, Roger poached members from the Whitebeard Pirates, even kneeling down to beg them. Later, Kozuki Oden joined the Roger Pirates.

Roger resumed his voyage and, upon arriving at Skypiea, used his ability to hear the "Voice of All Things" to sense and find the Golden Bell. Roger remarked that the "voice" within the stone was powerful and asked Kozuki Oden if it contained a powerful "force." Kozuki Oden replied that it contained a weapon called Poseidon.

Roger had Miyuki Kozuki carve a message on the steps of the Golden Bell that led the history of Skypiea to Laugh Tale.

After returning to the Blue Sea, the Roger Pirates headed to Fish-Man Island to seek the truth about Poseidon. Upon arriving at the island, they found Neptune guarding the gate with his soldiers. Neptune explained that the mermaid fortune teller Shirley had recently prophesied that "the gate to Fish-Man Island will be destroyed," so he was there to guard it. However, shortly after Roger and Neptune entered Fish-Man Island, the gate was destroyed by the Sea Kings.

After Roger met Shirley, Shirley told everyone that the reason the sea kings were causing such a ruckus was because they were waiting for the birth of the mermaid princess.

Three years ago, Roger was 52 years old. He arrived at Laugh Tale, and the Roger Pirates dominated the Grand Line, earning him the title of Pirate King. That same year, the Roger Pirates disbanded, with Roger being the first to leave the ship; the whereabouts of his remaining members remain unknown.

Two years ago, Roger said his last words to Rayleigh, "I will not die," and then ran to surrender to the Navy.

While imprisoned, Shiki the Golden Lion learned that Roger had been captured by the Navy. He single-handedly stormed Marineford, determined to see Roger and stop him.

According to Sengoku and Garp, Roger has become the Pirate King and surrendered himself to be executed in Loguetown in the East Blue.

Upon learning these words, Shiki the Golden Lion became even more enraged and fought against Sengoku and Garp. He was eventually defeated and imprisoned in the Great Prison, thus bringing the Golden Lion to an end.

In the same year, Roger was publicly executed in Loguetown, his birthplace in the East Blue. However, his last words before his execution sent people flocking to the sea, leading to a fierce competition among pirates vying for "One Piece" and establishing the "Great Pirate Era."

“What a legendary life. Thank you for your explanation. I have some things to attend to, but I'll come back later.” Mashiro said with a smile. “Also, I'm entrusting these three children to you.” Mashiro turned to Shakky and said.

“Of course.” Xia Qi looked at Mashiro with some surprise and replied. Then Mashiro left with Amatsuki Toki.

Mashiro and Toki left, and Shakky walked behind the bar, filled Rayleigh's glass, and said, "You actually said so much today, that really surprised me."

In Shakky's memory, Rayleigh had always been rather taciturn, and his attitude towards people, while not exactly cold, was certainly not as easy to talk to as it was today.

Taking the drink Shakky offered, Rayleigh asked, "What kind of person do you think she is?" "A very strange person, unfathomable," Shakky replied.

“She’s strong, incredibly strong. Even Whitebeard never gave me that feeling,” Rayleigh said, taking a sip of his drink.

Chapter Eighty-Four: You…

"Even you can't beat me?" Xia Qi asked.

Rayleigh nodded first, then shook his head slightly and said, "I don't know."

"It's unbelievable that there are people like this. Judging from her age, she's only in her teens," Xia Qi exclaimed.

"Those Celestial Dragons practically control the resources of the entire world. It's not a big deal if a few strong ones appear. Remember back in God Valley? There were several very strong Celestial Dragons on the island," Rayleigh said calmly.

“She’s really unfathomable.” Shakky lit a cigarette, took a light drag, and exhaled, instantly creating a cloud of smoke. “If I could, I’d really like to spar with her,” Rayleigh said with a smile.

The next day. Morning.

Mashiro lay asleep in bed. Tenzuki called her several times, but Mashiro showed no sign of getting up. Finally, at ten o'clock in the morning, Mashiro got out of bed.

Entering the bathroom and looking at herself in the mirror, Mashiro muttered to herself, "It's just laziness, but it won't last much longer, will it?"

After washing up, she went to the living room, where breakfast was placed on the table. This was bought by Tenzuki. After eating breakfast, Mashiro went to the study.

Since Mashiro and Toki had taken a lot of Berries with them when they left Mary Geoise, they were not short of money. The temporary house they rented was also very luxurious. In the study, Toki was reading a book attentively, as she rarely had the opportunity to read.

"Ryoma arrived under the setting sun, where a swordsman had been waiting for a long time. The two looked at each other and smiled. A moment later, the swordsman fell to the ground. Ryoma once again maintained his position as the world's greatest swordsman, unmatched by anyone..." When Tenzuki saw this, she frowned slightly. She didn't recognize the words that followed.

“Borrow Yue,” Mashiro’s voice came from behind Shiro.

"It can be interpreted as no one being able to replace him," Qi Bai said with a light laugh.

Guan Yueshi nodded, her ears turning slightly red, seemingly embarrassed because Zhenbai had noticed some unfamiliar characters.

"This book is very interesting; it tells the story of Ryoma in a novel-like format," Amatsuki Toki said with a smile.

"Is it interesting? I haven't read this book yet. Can you tell me about it?" Mashiro chuckled, picked up Amatsuki, and then sat down in a chair, letting Amatsuki sit on her lap.

Amatsuki was about the same height as Mashiro, and even a little taller when wearing wooden clogs, but she sat on Mashiro's lap without any awkwardness. "The book mainly introduces some stories about Ryoma."

Ryuma was a great swordsman during the "Golden Country" period of Wano Country, a legendary dragon-slaying samurai who never suffered a defeat in his life and was revered as the God of Swords by later generations.

He was already invincible throughout Wano Country at a very young age. One of the most classic stories is about Ryuma.

The gist of the story is that Ryuma arrives in a small town in Wano Country. The town is frequently attacked by dragons, so the villagers regularly offer money to a samurai in exchange for his help in quelling the dragon attacks.

Through an unexpected turn of events, Ryoma discovers that the so-called dragon attack is merely a scheme by the samurai to swindle money. He exposes the samurai, but unexpectedly, the samurai and his group possess a method to summon a giant dragon.

Finally, the dragon arrived, and the village was in imminent danger. Amidst the residents' fear and the samurai's triumph, Ryuma drew his sword and severed the dragon's head in one fell swoop. Ryuma stopped countless pirates and world nobles from approaching, letting the whole world know that Wano Country has a samurai, a figure of many legends, who had once slain...

The giant dragon is one of them.

After Ryuma's death, he was revered as the God of Swords by Wano Country and enshrined in a shrine along with the famous sword 'Shusui'.

This is the general content of the book. "Tengetsu Toki began, introducing it, 'Slicing a dragon in two with a single strike? That's really cool.' Mashiro chuckled lightly."

"Mashiro actually reads this kind of book?" Amatsuki asked curiously. In her opinion, Mashiro was always very busy and didn't even have time to read books, let alone novels like this.

You probably won't see this book anytime soon, but I can tell you the general plot. This book mainly tells the story of a samurai living in a samurai country in a ninja world.

The story has two main characters: one is called the Lone Warrior, and the other is called Funanosuke.

Because of a war, the land of samurai was invaded by ninjas, and the family of the destitute samurai and Funanosuke all died as a result.

Thus, the lonely samurai and Funanosuke embarked on two completely different paths. Mashiro spoke softly, her voice gentle, with a hint of melancholy. As Mashiro spoke, Toki Amatsuki shed tears.

As someone who lived in Wano Country and had believed in samurai since childhood, her understanding of the book's content was far deeper than that of a novice like Mashiro. "So, Toki, which character in this book do you like the most?" Mashiro asked softly after finishing her story.

"Both the Lone Samurai and Funanosuke are excellent samurai, but if I had to choose, I would prefer the Lone Samurai. He fought against fate all the time, even abandoning his property and his wife. He lived his whole life in battle, but in the end, he did not have a good end."

Just like many of the stories my parents told me about samurai when I was a child.

They were all heroes, all had tragic experiences, all did great things, but all met tragic ends. "Tian Yueshi wiped away her tears and said with a sigh.

As expected, most people like the lonely samurai. Because of his romance, his romanticism, and therefore, his appeal.

“My favorite character in this book is Funanosuke, because he’s the only one who thought of making a change,” Mashiro said softly.

"Change?" Amatsuki asked, somewhat puzzled. In her opinion, Mashiro should prefer this kind of strong and resolute hero.

“That’s right, it’s about change. The land of samurai was invaded by ninjas, and the lonely samurai and Funanosuke’s family all died as a result. But the lonely samurai was always filled with fear and hatred, while Funanosuke chose to combine samurai skills with ninjutsu,” Mashiro said.

"But in the end, he couldn't change anything; the samurai nation still perished," said Kanzuki.

“He has changed a lot. He has preserved the samurai legacy among the ninjas, which is remarkable,” Mashiro said, stroking Toki’s hair.

Lacking ambition, dwelling on the past, abandoning his wife and children—how could such a person learn the highest level of samurai martial arts? However, his personality is certainly likable to people your age. "Mashiro continued to explain.

Chapter 85: Afternoon

"Is Mashiro quite old?" Amatsuki Toki stopped dwelling on the novel topic and asked curiously instead. "If we're talking about age, she should be a little younger than you," Mashiro replied.

"But Mashiro, you always give me a very mature feeling, how should I put it, very reliable," Toki said with a smile. "By the way, Toki, come and comb my hair," Mashiro suddenly said.

"Okay, as long as Mashiro doesn't mind my bad hair." Amatsuki Toki happily jumped off Mashiro's lap and said with a smile.

Then, Toki quietly walked behind Mashiro, picked up the comb Mashiro handed him, and began to gently comb her hair. "Your hair is so beautiful," Toki remarked, stroking Mashiro's hair.

Mashiro closed her eyes slightly, her mind wandering to various things—things she had already done, things she hadn't done, and things she would do.

Tsuki gently combed Shiro's hair, the smooth strands making a soft sizzling sound as they touched the wooden comb. "Want to go for a walk later?" Tsuki asked softly after tying Shiro's hair up.

These past few days, Amatsuki Toki has been traveling around with Mashiro. Since they can't freely leave Mary Geoise, she hasn't had a chance to properly see the sights of any place.

“No problem, I know some fun places.” Mashiro said with a smile. “Great!” Toki laughed and hugged Mashiro tightly from behind.

"However, taking you out to play comes at a price..." Seeing Tenzuki's excited expression, Mashiro changed the subject. "Price? What do I need to do?" Tenzuki nuzzled Mashiro's face and asked curiously.

Mashiro turned around, reached out and tugged at Tenzuki's clothes, then put one arm around her waist.

Amatsuki understood what Mashiro meant, and her face instantly turned red, but she did not resist. Instead, she showed a hint of anticipation.

Soon, Tenzuki's clothes were scattered around the desk. Mashiro stroked Tenzuki's face, and their lips met.

When the moon shines...

Mashiro hugged her again.

, . . After . . . . . . . Looking at her.

"So white...~~" Amatsuki said in a deep, coquettish tone.

"Then..." Mashiro bit her earlobe. Afternoon.

Mashiro took Amaterasu Toki for a stroll.

Suddenly, Mashiro spotted a ramen shop and stopped in her tracks.

"Would you like some ramen? I haven't had it in ages, and I suddenly feel like trying it," Mashiro asked softly as she looked at Amatsuki.

Looking at the unremarkable little shop in front of her, Tenzuki couldn't help but feel curious and nodded slightly. She had never eaten ramen before. Then, Mashiro led Tenzuki inside, and they each ordered a bowl of ramen.

The chewy noodles, infused with broth, filled my mouth upon first bite. "It's really delicious," Amatsuki said softly.

Mashiro smiled, said nothing, and quietly watched Tenzuki eat ramen.

Seemingly a little embarrassed by Mashiro's gaze, Amatsuki Toki asked, "Aren't you going to eat?"

"Well, it's not really to my taste, but of course, if you feed me, I wouldn't mind eating a little more." Saying this, Mashiro opened her mouth and let out a soft "Ah~"

Without hesitation, Tenzuki picked up some ramen noodles with her chopsticks, blew on them, and put them into Mashiro's mouth. "The taste is indeed strange," Mashiro said.

In her opinion, the seafood flavor of the ramen was too strong, and the noodles weren't very chewy.

Mashiro's tongue touched Kaiko, causing Toki's face to flush slightly. After finishing their ramen, Mashiro took Toki to the Soap Bubble Park.

Soap Bubble Park has various amusement facilities, including bubble go-karts, a bubble carousel, and a bubble Ferris wheel.

There were also many vendors holding various activities, such as bubble balloon popping, bubble levitation challenges, and bubble blowing contests.

This was not only Amatsuki's first experience, but also Mashiro's first. One afternoon.
