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

While speaking, his gaze remained fixed on the giant soldiers being salvaged below.

Are you concerned about those giants?

Dragon also noticed this: "They are not thieves; I just investigated."

"It seems... they came from Elbaf."

"They knew the value of these documents, and the captain was a strange man whose entire body was wrapped in bandages."

"That's what he said..."

Dragon mimicked the giant captain's tone: "I will absolutely not allow the property that Ohara protected with its life to disappear into history."

"Fortunately, your World Government noticed this but didn't take any action..."

"No, you've got it wrong, I didn't!"

·· 0 flowers requested ··· ····

Vegapunk, who now works for the World Government, immediately denied this.

Dorrag ignored his denial and merely glanced at him.

"To be honest, I was stunned when I heard the news. I never thought you would become a lackey of the World Government."

"Even our Self-Defense Forces couldn't persuade you to come..."

"What stupid thing are you talking about?"

Vegapunk immediately waved his hand to interrupt, saying, "With my intelligence and skills, what could I possibly accomplish in your impoverished army?"

"I know~"

Dorrag sighed, "You're still so blunt."

It's clear that not only Vegapunk, but Dragon also cares deeply about funding.

........ .. .......

No matter what world you're in, money isn't everything, but you can't do anything without it!

"The World Government is an enormous organization, especially within the Navy. There are many people who can understand me..."

Vegapunk, instead, comforted Dragon: "Don't lose sight of your goals, Dragon!!"

"I know……"

Dragon's gaze deepened: "But this incident has truly moved me..."

At O'Hara's grave, the two old friends simply sat down on the ground and talked about the world.

These scholars, who are powerless to even kill a chicken, simply hold differing opinions on unreasonable laws and seek to uncover the truth of the world and discover the real history.

They were utterly crushed and annihilated by ruthless violence.

Guns can trample on the fruits of human wisdom, but they cannot destroy the justice and perseverance that exist in the hearts of everyone on this vast ocean.

"I want to build an army that can fight!!"

Dorrag's voice was firm and resounding.

It was at that very moment that the prototype of the subsequent revolutionary army was formed, leading to the incredibly large revolutionary army group we see today!

~~~~~~~~~

【Thank you so much to the generous donor 'Once Upon a Time There Was a Eunuch' for the incredible generosity last night!! I am truly grateful!!】

Saul, still alive! Gentle Aokiji!! You're a good person too.

"Don't you hate war?"

"I asked casually."

"Just you wait and see, Vegapunk, I'm going to... change this world!!!"

"Dr. Clover's death, and the will of Ohara, will not be in vain!!"

At that moment, on the ruins of Ohara, the flame of freedom was ignited.

Over the next decade or so, Dragon, together with Emporio Ivankov, the "Queen of the Transvestites," and Bartholomew Kuma, the "Tyrant," built the Revolutionary Army that could shake the world!

"~~~"

Recalling those many past events, even Dorrag couldn't help but feel a surge of emotions.

And not only him, but also in the research room of Egg Point Island, inside Egokhod.

"August 27th!" "Luffy's dad is way too hot-blooded, isn't he?!"

Usopp, Franky, and the others were all astonished after hearing [Shakyamuni's] story.

For them, what happened back then was truly legendary on the high seas.

"Did you just say Elbaf?!"

Usopp seemed very excited.

"I never imagined that Dragon would have such a relationship with Dr. Clover."

"And Kuma, wasn't he with Luffy's dad from the very beginning of the Revolutionary Army?!"

"So, they, along with Ivankov, were all founding members of the revolutionary army..."

The crowd gasped and discussed, while [Shakyamuni] continued speaking to himself:

"In order to continue to investigate the truth, and also to prevent the World Government from finding the documents of Ohara, I later secretly went to the land of giants, Elbaf, myself."

"That mysterious bandaged giant has carefully hidden all the books in the library and is personally guarding them."

"I was right there, and I read through all the documents."

In other words...

[Shakyamuni] extended a finger and gently tapped his head:

"The interpretation of O'Hara, the secrets of the world, I have kept them all in my mind."

"And we are still conducting research."

He had barely finished speaking when Robin, who was already unable to stop crying, filled his eyes with tears and choked out:

"That giant captain's name is Sauro, right?"

"He kept his identity a secret and told no one else to mention it..."

A single word is worth a thousand words; this saying says it all.

"And also~~~"

[Shakya] slowly turned around and looked at Aokiji, who stood there with his hands in his pockets, saying nothing:

“I think one of you here should be more aware of his identity and this situation.”

"..."

Aokiji tilted his head slightly, without saying anything more.

"Giants have a lifespan of nearly three hundred years and immense vitality..."

Link casually chimed in, "A mere freeze would at most cause them serious injury."

"Furthermore, if you really want to kill someone by freezing them, all you need to do is freeze them, then smash the ice block. That's a clean and efficient way to eliminate your opponent..."

He smiled and looked at Aokiji: "You agree, right, Kuzan?"

"Ara la la~~~"

Aokiji slowly exhaled a breath of cold air and turned his head away.

This guy never killed Saul back in Ohara.

As Link said, there are many ways to kill an opponent with ice, and freezing is just the weakest move!

Moreover, twenty years ago, Aokiji was still a passionate young man.

He could even pave a path for a little girl like Robin, whom he didn't know at all, and let her go. So how could he possibly kill his former best friend?!

That man, in the end, hid his passionate and tender side and bore it all alone.

This belongs to Aokiji; it's exceptionally gentle.

"Thank you, Dr. Vegapunk. This really is the last message."

Robin wiped away her tears and then laughed happily.

Then, she turned to look at Aokiji: "Thank you too, Aokiji..."

Qing Pheasant: "..."

He turned his head away again.

"No wonder I didn't object at all when you wanted to board the ship, even with the Saulo incident in the background..."

Robin burst into laughter through her tears: "Now I understand, it's because, subconsciously, I believed that you would never kill Saul."

“Back then, you even let a little girl like me go, let alone Saulo.”

"You're a good person too, Aokiji."

Having been friend-zoned, Aokiji's eyes twitched uncontrollably; he had finally lost his composure.

Rather than complaining and being angry, he felt quite uncomfortable with this kind of gratitude.

"Yo yo, gentle admiral!!"

"Haha, you really are incredibly kind!!"

Usopp and Franky, having pretty much figured things out, immediately started joking and laughing.

However~~~

"Ah la la."

As the chill emanating from Aokiji surged, frost immediately formed around the two of them, causing them to shiver and shut their mouths.

"Thank you again, Dr. Vegapunk, for making the battle for Ohara worthwhile!"

Robin wiped away her tears and thanked him sincerely once again.

"I want to master all knowledge; it is the nature of all scholars..."

[Saṃghāṭa 3.4] Instead, he shook his head and did not take it to heart.

"Come with me~"

After saying that, he turned around and walked forward: "I have something to show you."

"Let's go~"

The group exchanged a brief glance and followed without a second thought.

It seems that they can also gain more from this place.

Meanwhile, in the waste disposal site below.

Luffy, the idiotic and goofy captain of the Straw Hat Pirates, is beginning to explore the abandoned ancient giant.

~~~~~~~~~

[Thank you so much to the generous donor 'Once Upon a Time There Was a Eunuch' for the incredible generosity last night!! I'm truly grateful!!]

819 The real Vegapunk has appeared!! Another life-saving moment!!!

"Hey, I can't find the cockpit entrance, Chopper!!"

Luffy searched around for a while, thinking, "Could it be the kind that moves on its own?!"

"How about we try shouting it out?"

Chopper also tried and offered this suggestion.

"Start! Robot start!!"

Luffy immediately cupped his hands into a megaphone shape and actually shouted, "And what was the order again?!"

"No, he should have a name. Shouldn't he only move when his name is called?"

"Get moving, with the help of machines!!"
