Chapter 134: The Great Pirate Era

The Haiyuan calendar began in September 1498.

Rogue Town Square.

Pirate King's Execution Day.

Tens of thousands of people from all over the world gathered here just to watch this historic moment.

At the dock, a warship carrying important prisoners from the Grand Line docked on the coast.

The people on the streets of the town were driven away by tall soldiers and forced to clear a path leading to the execution platform in the square.

Roger's feet and hands were shackled and shackled.

Coming down the gangway of the warship at the dock.

"Hehe..." He looked up and saw everyone's eyes focused on him, then he smiled.

Start walking towards the Rogue Town Square.

The officers and soldiers escorting him followed closely behind him in shame.

It was like two soldiers escorting a general returning in triumph, and they couldn't help feeling like prisoners.

Walking along the street, all the way to the square, Roger was escorted to the execution platform by two executioners and sat down on the execution platform:

"Okay, let's finish it quickly."

His eyes scanned the people in the square below, and there were many people he knew.

Behind the execution platform, in the stone fortress.

Sengoku, who was in charge of this operation of great significance to the whole world, was looking at the execution platform from a window.

"Roger's death will definitely crush the pirates' morale, Garp." Sengoku said to Garp, who was sitting on a bench in the room with a heavy face.

He looked at Garp. It was such a grand day, representing the victory of the navy and justice.

I actually saw that there was no joy at all on the other person's face.

"Something big happened in the New World. After Ski was rescued by Arthur, he started to fight with John again," said Cap.

There is one thing in my heart that was entrusted by Roger, which is to protect Roger's children from being killed by the navy.

"At this time, nothing is more important than Roger's death. Once the execution is over, we should rush back to maintain order."

Rogue Town Square.

Amidst the huge crowd, Bucky found where Arthur was.

I squeezed through the crowd and came to his side.

“Arthur…Arthur…!”

"Hmm?" Arthur heard the voice and looked down at Bucky who was holding his waist beside him: "What's wrong? Bucky."

"Please... don't let the captain be executed. With your strength, you will definitely be able to rescue him." Buggy said from his heart.

Buggy is not well-received in Roger's pirate group, but that is his childhood home after all.

My feelings towards Roger are closer than those towards my biological parents.

He didn't want Roger to die in front of him.

Arthur thought for a moment and felt that there was no need to save Roger and change the history of pirates.

So, he responded to Buggy: "I...can't stop it, and I don't want to stop it. This is the fate and long-cherished wish he chose."

Bucky pulled at the black robe around Arthur's waist, crying, unwilling to accept this fact.

In the crowd, there was another Shanks who was crying about this and was also unwilling to accept it.

"Hey! Pirate King," a man's voice came from a distance, "Where did you hide the treasure you found?!"

"Is it really the Grand Line? The legendary great secret treasure, the one-of-a-kind great secret treasure!"

Hearing this voice, Arthur stood there and smiled silently.

I was still worried in my heart whether my appearance would change the history of One Piece.

Now it seems that there is no need to worry at all.

That man, he stood up!

"You guy, shut up!" The executioner on the stage hurriedly spoke out to stop him. No one was allowed to ask Roger anything in such an occasion.

"Hahahaha!" Roger laughed out loud after hearing this, as if he had been waiting for this moment: "Do you want my treasure?"

"Don't talk nonsense!" On the stage, the two executioners heard Roger talking and hurriedly pointed their weapons at him, scolding him and stopping him.

"If you want, I can give you everything. Go find it. I put everything there!" Roger said.

The two weapons crossed and penetrated his left and right ribs, completing the execution ahead of schedule.

"Oh——!"

However, his last words before death completely ignited the passion of the people gathered in the square of Rogue Town.

on the square.

After watching the entire execution process, Dorag turned and left.

Bucky grabbed the black robe around Arthur's waist and cried.

"Hmm?" Dorag suddenly turned around and looked at Arthur, who was standing there motionless, his calmness out of place among the cheering crowd.

Thinking that he had cut off all ties with Arthur, Dorag thought it would be better to have less contact with him, so he turned around and left quietly.

Arthur's eyes were fixed on Roger's body, and in his brain, time seemed to stand still.

The man before him who was able to cover the sky with one hand died at the hands of two inconspicuous executioners.

The man who had been chased by the navy into desperate situations many times but always managed to break through despite being injured... just died in front of him.

As a crew member who had been on Roger's pirate group for several years, Arthur could not accept that such a powerful and supreme being would die in this way.

"Hey, Buggy, let's go!" Shanks, with tears on his face, came to Arthur and called Buggy to go to the dock to prepare for evacuation.

"If we don't leave now, Rogue Town has been surrounded by many naval forces and we won't be able to leave."

"Arthur, where are you going next...?" Buggy let go of Arthur and followed Shanks to escape from Rogue Town.

As a member of Roger's pirate group, being hunted down is just the beginning.

"Don't worry about him! He doesn't even consider us as partners..." As he said that, Shanks saw that Arthur's eyes were fixed on Roger's body.

Those eyes, which didn't seem to be without emotion, made his malicious words stop abruptly.

"Once you die...there's nothing left..." Arthur said this, turned his eyes away from Roger's body, and looked coldly at the crowds of people running towards the dock.

With the opening of the Great Pirate Era, the greedy and coveted treasure made them rush to the sea.

Arthur walked out of the island alone, and the most important guy was waiting for him to save.

Sengoku originally thought that this execution would dampen the morale of all pirates.

He didn't expect that Roger would use the last moment of his life to bring the end of the era to a new climax.

"The sea is frozen...?"

"Is he planning to walk from here to other islands alone...?"

At the Rogue Town Pier, Arthur dragged the ice dragon and walked directly towards the turbulent sea.

With every step he took, the sea beneath his feet would be frozen by the ice dragon's blade, paving a path of ice for him.

boom!

Warships on both sides of the ice road fired at him.

Arthur swung his blade at them indifferently, causing the two huge warships to turn into two crystal clear ice sculptures of warships on the sea.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, he walked quietly towards the distant sea like a lonely king.

"Fufufu~, what kind of storm will that monster cause in the new era?!" The young Doflamingo was preparing to evacuate at the dock when he saw two warships on the sea being easily frozen by Arthur.

The boiling blood in his heart made him laugh uncontrollably.

"You left so high-profile, is that my first target?" Mihawk said, looking at Arthur's back while carrying the supreme sword Night on his back.

"A man who suddenly disappeared two years ago and reappeared in such a calm manner, who knows what crazy things he will do." Crocodile stood at the dock, his coat fluttering in the wind behind him, holding a cigar in his mouth and looking at the icy road where Arthur left.

The Great Pirate Era officially begins.
