One Piece: Under the Throne

After half a year of transformation, the Gorud Kingdom in the West Sea has undergone earth-shaking changes. Luo Anthony has also completely integrated the remnants of the John family, becoming the only underground force in the kingdom.

W.M Arms Company has also been thriving due to the official endorsement of the Gorud Kingdom, and its business has even expanded to neighboring countries. It was thought that W.M Company's products were high-end and priced high, so not many people would order them. However, Leo still underestimated the financial resources of the people of the West Sea.

As for Leo and his friends, they also had a fulfilling time, especially Alfu. Now Will and Gloria can also form a fighting force, but Gloria can't forget her big hammer and secretly picked it up when Alfu wasn't paying attention.

Charles has made the most progress. He has a family foundation of kicking skills, and is even more adept at practicing the split kick. Now his close combat ability is second only to his instructor Ah Fu. Even Leo, who is not good at physical skills, can now wield a sword in a decent manner. According to Ah Fu, kendo is something you need to study for a lifetime.

In this joyous atmosphere, time quietly came to the summer of 1498 in the Haiyuan calendar. On the second day after Leo announced that he would embark on his journey again, all his plans were disrupted by a big news that shocked the world.

"Leo, come and see there's big news." Charles shouted hurriedly, waving the newspaper.

"What big news? Have the Celestial Dragons fallen?" Leo said nonchalantly while waving his knife.

Leo took the newspaper from Charles and took a look at it. His jaw almost dropped to the ground. It turned out that it was already this time. Leo's focus on training almost made him forget the biggest event in the One Piece world.

The front page of the newspaper clearly stated, "Pirate King Gold Roger is about to be publicly executed in Rogue Town." A closer look at the content revealed that the execution would be scheduled for one month later.

Leo secretly rejoiced that he had not missed this important historical event. Then Leo picked up the Den Den Mushi and contacted Fisher Tiger, informing him that he could go out to sea to start the Seven Warlords of the Sea plan. He also said that he was going to Rogue Town, and if they could catch up, they could come and meet him.

"Everyone come here, I have something to announce!" Leo quickly called everyone together, and after a brief explanation, he ordered them to set sail for Roge Town in the East China Sea.

……

The Poseidon entered the extreme speed mode directly, the golden trident pierced the wind and waves and sped across the sea. Leo stood at the bow, wishing he could fly to Rogue Town in the next second. Although he still sneered at the profession of pirates, he had to make the world chaotic if he wanted to take revenge on the World Government. The opening of the Age of Exploration was an opportunity, so he had to witness it with his own eyes.

And Leo remembered that many future big names were present at the execution. When he thought about meeting them, Leo suddenly smiled evilly. No matter how famous you are in the sea in the future, I will definitely be the most shining one among you. Facing the biting sea breeze, Leo's second-year fire burned fiercely.

It took only three days for the Poseidon to reach the entrance of the Four Seas to the Grand Line.

There was a small incident when crossing the Upside Down Mountain. Although Ah Fu had a lot of experience, it was his first time to go out of the West Sea. So this trip to the Upside Down Mountain became an unforgettable memory for him. When Ah Fu saw the towering mountain, his instinct was to be determined, but Leo did not give him a chance to back down and tied him directly to the mast.

In this way, Ah Fu completed his first climb over the Upside-Down Mountain in the "Special Seat".

……

"Rogue Town is ahead. Guys, prepare to land."

Everyone: “Oh!”

Ah Fu: ... Ugh

Leo smiled and comforted the housekeeper who was still recovering: "Alright! Your body will get used to this kind of thing after a few times. Just vomit and it will be fine."

Everyone looked at Leo in horror: "Hey, are you a devil?"

Ha! You didn’t show any mercy when you took action. Didn’t you agree to “thank you very much” for Instructor Afu’s care over the past six months?

"Look, Rogue Town is so lively!" Gloria leaned half of her body out of the boat and pointed at the port excitedly.

It seems that the star effect is very scary no matter what era it is, especially when watching the top idols fail. And Roger is the top idol of this era. Is there anything more terrible than the death penalty failure?

At this moment, Rogue Town gave Leo the feeling of a scenic spot during a short holiday in his previous life, where people were crowded together and the composition of the people was also varied. There were nobles who came to watch the fun, and there were also vicious-looking villains. At this point in time, even if the navy could see that you were not a good person, they would not bother to care about you.

Of course, the happiest people would be the merchants in Rogue Town. The execution of the Pirate King directly boosted the economy of Rogue Town. Maybe even Roger himself did not expect that he would give back to his hometown folks in this way. It can be regarded as a disguised return home in glory.

Leo and his crew deliberately found a hotel facing the execution platform. After some friendly communication, some "kind-hearted tourists" finally gave up their rooms, which was really cause for celebration.

After settling down, Leo suggested that they go to the tavern in the town together. He had a perverse fantasy that perhaps some incredible side quest could be triggered in the tavern.

……

"Uncle, give me a dozen shots of rum!" Leo ordered the drinks excitedly as soon as he sat down.

But before he could finish his words, he was punched on the head.

Ah Fu glared at Leo unhappily and said, "Boss, two glasses of rum and three glasses of juice, please."

"mean!"

"Before you come of age, just listen to Dad...the adults and drink the orange juice obediently." Perhaps because they have been in contact for a long time, even Ah Fu began to play the joke unconsciously.

The drinkers were talking about the execution of the Pirate King. Some were praising the navy hero Garp, some were worried that the Pirate King's crew would come to rescue them, and some even thought that the Pirate King was a fake and a conspiracy by Roger.

As everyone was discussing more and more, no one noticed that a red-haired boy wearing a straw hat quietly walked out of the tavern. Only Leo glanced at him casually, with a gleam of light in his eyes.

As for the red-haired boy, his steps seemed to pause for a moment when he walked out the door, and then he disappeared into the crowd.

After watching Shanks leave, Leo chuckled, "Ha! Sharp guy!"

Leo has a feeling that he will meet Shanks again soon, and he really hopes to bully the young sea emperor.

At this time, the boss sighed and attracted the attention of several people in front of the bar. Charles asked curiously: "Boss, why are you sighing when the pub business is so good?"

"Roger used to come here to drink all the time, but I didn't expect that after so many years, he would die here. It's quite a pity."

Ah Fu didn't quite understand what his boss said: "Isn't it a good thing that the Pirate King was executed?"

The boss smiled bitterly and replied, "To us, Roger is still the bragging kid he was back then."

Suddenly he changed the subject: "Besides, he is the Pirate King, a big shot from our Rogue Town."

Seeing the bar owner's excited look, Leo took the opportunity to buy him a glass of rum and asked him to continue telling everyone the story of One Piece.

As the owner told the story vividly, everyone was attracted by Roger's story when he was young, and before they knew it, it was dark. The tavern owner was obviously a little drunk, and he sang Binx's wine while clapping the bar.

"Yo-ho-ho, yo-ho-ho, bring Binx's wine to your side, like the sea breeze riding the waves as it pleases, the sunset is also noisy on the other side of the sea, the birds' singing draws circles in the sky, goodbye to the harbor silk town, let's sing a song of sailing, the golden waves and silver waves also turn into splashing water, we leave only because of the ocean..."

The atmosphere in the pub reached its climax, and everyone sang loudly together. No matter who you are, everyone is equal at this moment.

Charles was the first to pass out at the bar because he couldn't hold his liquor. Seeing that it was getting late, Leo stood up to say goodbye to his boss when he was suddenly grabbed by the arm.

The tavern owner whispered mysteriously in Leo's ear: "Do you want to know what Roger said before he went out to sea? That guy actually said he wanted to subvert the world. Hahaha, he is really a boastful kid."

The boss's words made Leo stunned, and then he smiled and replied: "No, he did it, didn't he."

The next day, Charles did not wake up until noon. As they stayed up too late last night, everyone went back to the Poseidon to rest. The hungover chef just walked out of the cabin and felt like vomiting again when he was blown by the sea breeze.

Ah Fu patted him on the back and mocked him, "You can't drink just this little. Why don't you drink beer next time?"

Please give me back the mature and steady Mr. Alfred. How come he completely let himself go after changing his name? Leo looked at Alfred's back in some distress. How come someone changed so much after joining the team? Leo began to worry about the future of mobile life.

Suddenly a call interrupted Leo's thoughts. It turned out that Fisher Tiger had brought Jinbei and Arlong to Rogue Town and was waving to them at the dock.

The three were quickly invited on board. After not seeing each other for two years, everyone's friendship was still the same. After hugging each other, Leo announced a banquet to celebrate the arrival of Tiger and the other two.

Charles' hangover was cured instantly when he mentioned the party. He set up a grill and planned to have a BBQ on the deck. But when he saw Mr. Tiger take out the wine produced in Fishman Island and wanted to get drunk with everyone, he was so scared that he almost hid under the table. The party on the deck continued until the evening in a joyful atmosphere.

Leo and Tiger leaned on the railing and enjoyed the sea breeze.

"Brother Tiger, after this execution, the ocean will go haywire. This is the chance for Fishman Island to rise."

"Great, in the past two years I have trained a group of young men with good fighting ability, and I can finally start planning."

"Yes, the first step is to build a reputation and strive for a place as a Shichibukai."

Leo looked at Tiger with burning eyes and continued, "There will be many new pirates who want to rush into the New World. At this time, a pirate group composed entirely of fishmen will appear under the guise of robbing new pirates. I think it's a good idea to give the World Government the illusion that you are the gatekeepers of the New World! Don't be afraid of killing, this is the stage for you to show your strength. Then, if you let the Ryugu Kingdom endorse you, you will have a great chance of becoming a Shichibukai."

"But then the fishmen will become the enemy of all pirates."

"If we don't do this, Fishman will be no different from Perry in the eyes of the pirates. Just do it. The World Government also hopes for this result. First of all, you can't intercept all pirates, and secondly, not all pirates want to go to the New World. If you are really worried, you can raise the slogan of protecting Fishman Island and resolutely resisting the capture of Fishman to clear your name."

After some discussion, Tiger approved of Leo's plan and said he would implement it immediately after returning.

In the next few days, everyone experienced the enthusiasm of Rogue Town like tourists, but as the execution time of the Pirate King approached, the atmosphere on the island gradually became solemn, and many future masters of the sea also arrived one after another to witness the advent of a new era together.
