The Great Voyage: The Props Master on the Straw Hat Ship

On the other side, at the outer sea of ​​Wano Country.

"Hahaha, we're finally setting sail!!"

Luffy's joyful laughter echoed across the sea in the New World.

"This adventure trip was really interesting!!"

He sat at the bow of the Sonny Merry, still somewhat reluctant to leave.

"In any case, being able to safely land on the island and then safely evacuate is already a very difficult thing."

Nami looked at the Log Pole in her hand and let out a soft sigh of relief.

Fortunately, Luffy didn't have the wild idea of ​​doing something high up when he came down.

Fortunately, with the [Airplane-shaped All-Purpose Control Stick] that Link brought out, the group arrived safely and smoothly at the sea level below.

"Next, we'll set off for the final treasure, ONE PIECE!!"

Luffy lay down on the lawn, unable to stop smiling.

"This is great! My dream can finally come true!"

He chuckled, "Ace's dream is almost realized, and Sabo is already working on his dream."

Having seen the vast world, I want to write it all down in a book and pass it on to future generations!

This is Saab's dream.

"The three of us once made a vow together~"

Luffy looked up at the azure sky, a smile involuntarily creeping onto his lips.

"We all need to pursue our own dreams, even if it's only after I become the Pirate King!"

"Eh?!"

Everyone else was taken aback upon hearing this.

"Luffy, isn't your dream to become the Pirate King?"

Usopp, out of sheer curiosity, asked directly.

Not only him, but everyone else looked over with great curiosity.

Because of Luffy, who keeps saying he wants to become the Pirate King, people always feel that finding the One Piece and becoming the Pirate King is his dream.

But judging from his tone... it seems there's more to the story?!

"I guess this counts as one too~"

Under the curious gazes of his many companions, Luffy grinned and said, "But my real dream is to..."

Full of youthful vigor, the youngest of the Four Emperors on the high seas slowly spoke, clearly stating his most simple and idealistic dream, which he had set out since childhood.

Under the vast sea and sky, on my own ship, facing my most trusted and precious companions in this crew~

He laid bare all his true thoughts.

"Hahaha!!!"

Finally, he burst into laughter.

"Huh?!" Zoro couldn't help but raise his head.

"Huh? What did you just say?!"

Jinbe, who was at the helm, seemed not to have heard clearly, or perhaps he doubted that he had misheard.

"Eh……"

Nami's pupils gradually dilated.

"Yohohohoho!!"

Brook burst into laughter, tears streaming down his face.

"That's so much fun, Luffy-san!!!"

"Hey Hey hey……"

Usopp stared at Luffy in disbelief and said, "Seriously? What are you thinking?!"

"Aww!!"

Franky burst into tears again, tears streaming down his face like they were free: "That's great, that's fantastic!!"

"Hey, Chopper~"

Sanji's lips gradually curled into a wide grin, and he couldn't help but burst into laughter: "Give him a checkup on his brain!!"

"..."

Robin stared at Luffy in astonishment, speechless.

"Wow!!!"

Chopper's eyes shone with endless light, like tiny stars covering his pupils.

"Whoo~"

Even Link, who had been leaning against the mast, let out a soft sigh of relief:

"This really is~~~"

A slight smile curved his lips: "What an incredible dream!!"

"What do you think?!"

Link turned his head and looked at Aokiji, who was silently drinking coffee.

~~~~~~~~~

[Thank you so much to the generous user 'Once Upon a Time There Was a Eunuch' for all the generous donations you've given me! I'm speechless with gratitude!!]

760 said the same thing Captain Roger did back then!! New reports and news!!

“Ah la la~”

A burst of icy air froze the coffee in his hand into ice.

Although Aokiji didn't say anything, you could tell from his action of freezing the coffee...

He wasn't as calm as he appeared on the surface.

"I really am..."

Aokiji looked at Luffy and murmured to himself:

"I've got an amazing captain on board!!"

Luffy's spontaneous revelation of his childhood dream completely stunned all his crewmates present.

Even Usopp, who always loves to boast and exaggerate, stared wide-eyed at Luffy in front of him in disbelief.

"I'm telling you, how could you possibly do something like that?!"

Even he found it incredible; he'd never even considered such a thing while bragging!

"One Piece is fine, but this one is just too outrageous!!"

"Ah?!"

Luffy blinked, then immediately sat up.

"I haven't told you about this before, but you don't need to react this strongly, do you?!"

"...The point isn't whether or not it was said, is it?!"

Usopp retorted, "Because that's simply impossible!!"

"is it?"

Luffy, on the other hand, was counting on his fingers, starting to argue:

"Besides you guys, I've only told Sabo, Ace, and Shanks about my dream before..."

"So how did they react?"

Robin rested his chin on his hand and asked with a smile.

"He... he was just smiling the whole time~"

Luffy put his hands behind his head again, grinned, and said foolishly:

"Shanks even shed tears back then!!"

At this point, Luffy seemed to recall something, and the smile on his face gradually became sunny and relaxed.

Her entire posture was completely relaxed. "This is mine... 々～ ..."

He smiled slowly and said, "The dream has come to an end!!"

"Wow ha ha ha ha!!!"

Jinbe, who had been listening intently and steering the ship, could no longer hold back at this moment:

"Ever since I boarded this ship..."

He was laughing loudly there, laughing so hard that snot and tears were flying out of his nose:

"Nothing is ever easy!!"

"Looks like I've been assigned a rather difficult captain!"

Not only Jinbe, but Chopper, who also reacted and became excited, had golden light flashing in his eyes:

"This is great, Luffy!!"

He too was in tears, loudly echoing, "This dream is absolutely amazing!!"

Nami also sat down to one side, looking at Luffy with a rare hint of doting in her eyes:

"That's very much in line with your style!"

"Oh, in that case..."

Franky sobbed, his voice broken but firm: "I have to become the Pirate King!!"

"So we need to get to our destination as soon as possible!!"

He was full of fighting spirit and couldn't wait to help Luffy realize his dream.

Zoro, a smile playing on his lips, lay down on the ground and closed his eyes to sleep.

Sanji, with a cigarette still dangling from his lips, simply turned around and walked towards the kitchen behind him.

He was going to provide this future Pirate King, and his crew, with a truly exquisite and perfect lunch!

"..."

Aokiji watched this scene silently, then picked up the cup of coffee that had long since gone cold.

Put it in your mouth and drink it all in one gulp!

Link looked at Luffy, who had great ambitions, and then gently raised his head.

[First Mate Raleigh, I met a really interesting kid in the East Blue!!]

That little guy said the same thing as Captain Roger back in the day!!

After two years of training, as Rayleigh bid farewell to Luffy, he couldn't help but recall every moment of their two-year journey.

More often, it was when the Red-Haired Pirates returned to the New World and passed through the Sabaody Archipelago.

The arrival of Shanks, the former member of Roger's Pirates who was also the captain but had lost an arm, and the words Rayleigh spoke.

[He said the same thing as Captain Roger back then]~

I initially thought it was about both of them becoming the Pirate King, but now it seems that Roger and Luffy both share the same dream.

It must be said that the foreshadowing of Luffy's true dream had already been deeply buried long ago.

"If nothing unexpected happens, the island we're heading to next should be [Aegokod], which translates to [Egg Tip], and is Vegapunk's future island."

"Hmm, but I'm not sure if the direction the pointer is pointing is correct. I'll check it again later..."

Thinking of this, Link looked at the small black dot in the sky that was slowly approaching them.
