Chapter 396 Gol D. Roger

"Uncle, you just said you had something to tell me later." Luffy looked at Rayleigh and asked.

Rayleigh looked at Luffy meaningfully, which made Luffy stunned.

"thorn"

A flash of lightning passed by, and Liu Yuting appeared in front of Xia Qi's extortion pub.

"Hey, Wang Hao's mother, you're back." Luffy said.

"Well, I'm really tired after fighting with Rayleigh." Liu Yuting looked at Rayleigh and said.

"The fact that you are here safe and sound means I have lost." Rayleigh said, "The Thunder Fruit, the Thunder Queen."

"Hey, how old are you? You don't have any idea." Liu Yuting said, "But it's really powerful. Fortunately, I'm fast enough."

"Swish"

Wang Hao's figure flashed and appeared at the door, holding two knives in his hands.

One is the original Yesai, and the other is the Zanpakutō, Hyorinmaru, which is the reward given by the witness system after defeating Rayleigh.

As for the copy rewards, I just gave some money.

"You won too?" Reilly asked Wang Hao in surprise.

"Of course I can't beat him. The advanced three-color domineering aura can still restrain my various abilities." Wang Hao said.

"Then why are you here?" Rayleigh was confused.

"I have bug-like skills. Even though I can't beat an old man like you, it doesn't mean I can't win. I can do it with a harem technique." Wang Hao said as a matter of course, "It's just that I wasted some time practicing with you."

"The art of harem..." Long Aotian and the others were numb. The art of harem and reverse harem could basically restrain most people. It was estimated that only someone like Xiao Feng would not be restrained.

"Wang Hao, let me see your knife." Zoro approached Wang Hao and said.

"No." Wang Hao tilted his head and walked towards the tavern.

"You bastard..." Zoro gritted his teeth as he looked at Wang Hao's back.

Several people entered the tavern and Raleigh told everyone his identity.

"What? Been on One Piece's ship?" Luffy shouted.

"Ah, I used to be the deputy captain, Silverbaz Rayleigh, please give me your guidance." Rayleigh poured a glass of wine and said.

"First Captain?" everyone exclaimed.

"Xiao Ba, didn't you tell them?" Xia Qi asked.

"They just want a coating." Xiao Ba said.

"Didn't you notice?" Robin asked.

"I'm very familiar with this name." Usopp said, pointing at Rayleigh with tears in his eyes.

"It's written in the book I read." Nami said with tears in her eyes and covering her mouth.

"Indeed, everyone has heard of this name." Sanji said.

"Gol D. Roger, it seems like there was such a person in the past, but it also seems like there wasn't." Brook said while eating.

"Why does a big shot like you know that octopus?" asked Zoro while looking at Nosawa and Hyorinmaru.

"Xiao Ba saved me when I was shipwrecked more than 20 years ago," said Rayleigh.

"He was his savior," Xia Qi said, "even though he was just a child at the time."

"We had a good relationship until he joined the Sun Pirates," Rayleigh said.

"Is that Arlong?" Luffy said as he looked for food in the refrigerator.

"But Gol D. Roger was executed 22 years ago." Sanji lit a cigarette and said, "As a vice-captain, you were not beheaded? The Pirate King should be captured by the navy soon."

Rayleigh didn't say anything, and everyone looked at him waiting for an answer.

"He wasn't caught." Rayleigh said suddenly, "Roger turned himself in."

"Huh?" Everyone looked surprised.

"Conquer announced that he had captured him just to show off his ability," Rayleigh explained.

"Why did the Pirate King surrender himself?" Nami asked.

"Because our journey has come to an end," Reilly said. "About four years before the public execution, Roger was diagnosed with an incurable disease. Facing a disease that no one could cure, even Roger was in great pain."

"At that time, there was a man named Colex at Twin Capes. He was also a lighthouse keeper and the most skilled doctor. Only he could alleviate Roger's pain."

"We begged him to join us as ship one on our final voyage, and Roger held out for three more years, conquering the Great Passage that had been thought impossible."

"Doctor Colex?" Brooke called out. "From Twin Capes. I miss him so much."

"Didn't that uncle stay in Gemini Cape for 50 years?" Usopp said, "So he was a crew member of the Pirate King."

"So, he did say he was a ship's doctor for a few years," Nami said, "Does that mean he was a pirate for those three years?"

"You met him? That means he's doing well." Rayleigh said, "It seems that Krokus agreed to join us because there is a pirate group he is looking for."

"Brook, didn't he go out to sea just to find you?" Usopp said.

"Dr. Colex, you've gone to such lengths for us," Brooke said.

"Although he has only been a crew member for three years, he is undoubtedly our companion." Rayleigh said, "Now that I am old, I really want to see him again."

"Wang Hao!" Everyone looked at Wang Hao.

"No, it's too dangerous here." Wang Hao said, "I can't summon Lab, and I'm not sure whether Colax is in Lab's body. It's also unknown whether I can summon them both. We can't let them take risks just because you just want to meet."

"That's right." Sanji put out his cigarette, "And then? What happens after we conquer the Grand Line?"

"After that, Roger began to be called the Pirate King by the world. He was not the Pirate King from the beginning." Rayleigh said, "For a dying person, the title is meaningless."

"But Roger is still very happy. He likes to be glorious no matter what he does, whether it's a banquet or a battle. He has made plans for the future even if there is no future for him. He seems to be enjoying it."

"Soon after, the captain gave an order and the Roger Pirates quietly disbanded. The crew members disappeared one after another. I have no idea where the companions who fought so hard at that time are now and what they are doing."

"A year after the disbandment, Roger turned himself in and was arrested. The place where he was born, the town of Roger in the East China Sea, announced a public execution."

"I heard that the outstanding young people who gathered in the square that day are still dominating the sea. The whole world is watching the execution of the Pirate King."

“But I didn’t go…”

"The last thing he said was, 'I'm not dying, man.'"

"The World Conquest and the Navy would be shocked. The public execution was carried out to intimidate other pirates, but because of his words before the execution, it opened the prelude to the Great Pirate Era."

"My treasure? Take it all if you want it. Go and find it. I left everything there."

"In the few seconds of life before his death, he set the world on fire."

"I never laughed as hard as I did that night, nor did I suffer as much as I did that night, nor did I drink as much as I did that night. Our captain's life was truly wonderful."

"It was from that time that the outsiders triggered the first main mission." Liu Yuting said, "Several major camps were divided, and the outsiders began to have choices from cattle and horses."

Luffy began to tremble with excitement after hearing this.

"It felt like I was listening to a very exciting story," Nami said, "but hearing it from the person involved was like something completely different."

"So, the current pirate era was completely started by Roger?" Usopp asked.

"I can't answer you on this point yet." Rayleigh said, "Roger is dead. Only those who live in this era can create this era."

"That day in the square, someone did receive something from Roger. Shanks, whom you are all familiar with, was one of them."

"Uncle, do you know Shanks?" Luffy asked.

"Don't you know the pirate named Buggy from the East China Sea?" Rayleigh asked back.

“Bucky?!” As soon as Buggy was mentioned, everyone showed an expression of disgust on their faces.

"Those two men were trainees on our ship before," Rayleigh said.

"What? Has Shanks been on One Piece's ship before?" Luffy shouted.
