One Piece: World Conquest Begins with Creating a Little Empress

Roger's actions startled the soldiers outside the door, who all took a half-step back.

"Heh, you're going to be executed, right? Let's go!"

Roger, watching the soldiers who had retreated in fear of his imposing presence, still grinned broadly.

"Damn it! A mere pirate dares to play tricks on us..."

The soldiers were somewhat enraged by Roger's words.

Roger's frankness stood in stark contrast to their fear...

This gave them a deep sense of humiliation!

They are clearly the officers and soldiers of the World Government, they are the ones who are righteous, yet they are afraid of an evil thief. Wouldn't that make them a laughingstock?

Even though this thief was the most skilled of all the thieves in the world...

But the officers and soldiers were afraid of the thieves, which was itself a rebellious act against the Heavenly Gang, and they could no longer tolerate it.

Fortunately, this guy is about to be executed...

No matter how rampant evil may be, justice will always prevail.

"Crackling crackling..."

Once the soldiers realized this, they opened the iron gates holding Roger and then roughly yanked him out of the prison. Perhaps only in this way could they salvage their pitiful sense of pride.

Then, they escorted Roger, whose hands and feet were all bound by thick chains, toward the makeshift execution platform outside, making a series of ear-piercing sounds as the chains scraped against the bluestone floor...

The road from the prison to the execution platform wasn't far...

Before long, Roger was escorted to the execution platform by two soldiers.

The moment Roger appeared on the execution platform, the crowd below erupted in cheers.

"Roger! Kneel down!"

The two soldiers stood on either side of Roger on the execution platform, forcefully pressing him down onto it with a muffled 'thud'.

"Hahaha……"

However, to everyone's surprise...

Roger was about to die, about to be executed, yet there was no fear in his eyes, only righteous indignation!

Roger knelt on the execution platform, laughing loudly. This composure in the face of death, yet still able to laugh, deeply moved all the heroes and warriors below.

"Die! You damned Roger!"

"Justice will prevail! The Navy will prevail!"

"Damn pirates..."

"Roger, do you know how many people in this world lose their families and lives every day because of pirates? You, the most evil pirate king in history, just die already!"

However, besides the heroes who were awestruck by Roger, there was also a group of ordinary people who hated Roger, who actually knew nothing about Roger...

Their anger stemmed from the fact that all they knew about Roger, the Pirate King, came from the World Government's smear campaign.

"a ha ha ha……"

Roger continued to laugh and ignored him.

"The execution begins!"

The time was almost up...

The current Admiral Sengoku, who had been standing guard below the stage, nodded slightly to the executioner on the stage, indicating that Roger could be executed.

"Click~"

As the words of the Warring States fell...

The two executioners began to manipulate their bayonets according to the execution procedure.

"Roger! You know him, right?!"

"As the Pirate King, you must know this, right?"

"The legendary treasure! ONE PIECE!"

However, just as Roger was about to be executed, a member of the public who was witnessing Roger's execution suddenly went berserk and roared at Roger on the stage.

"Haha~"

As the man finished speaking, Roger, who had been smiling, suddenly had a glint in his eyes, and his smile widened.

"No! Execution! Execute him quickly..."

Sengoku, standing below the execution platform, seemed to have thought of something. Cold sweat poured from his forehead as he roared at the two executioners on the platform.

"Want my treasure? If you want it, I can give it all to you! Go find it! I've put all the world's treasure there, Ralph..."

Before Roger could finish speaking, the cold bayonet fell, and bright red blood immediately stained the entire execution platform. Roger, who had been laughing, suddenly lost his life and collapsed to the ground.

"Did we make it?!"

Below the execution platform, Sengoku, who was preventing the Roger Pirates from causing trouble, had cold sweat on his forehead. He turned around and stared intently at the crowd who had witnessed Roger's execution.

"Oh!!"

However, the next second, a deafening roar suddenly rang out!

Shouts echoed in Sengoku's ears: "It exists! The legendary One Piece exists! Pirate King Roger himself said that he left everything there, on the final island, Laugh Tale!!"

As these sounds rang out, one ship after another, hoisting the skull and crossbones pirate flag, set sail for the unknown seas...

Just like Gol D. Roger, who set off from Loguetown back then!

"You despicable Roger! Even in death, you want to keep the world from ever finding peace and tranquility?! You evil bastard..."

Sengoku, trembling as he looked at the crowd swept up in a frenzy by Roger's words, berated Roger before roaring at the navy men around him, "What are you all standing there for? Stop them from setting sail! And did you see those reporters from the World Economic Herald? Stop them! Absolutely do not allow them to publish Roger's words as a selling point for their newspaper! Otherwise, the world will descend into chaos..."

"Yes, sir! Great General of the Warring States!"

As soon as the Warring States period ended, the group of naval soldiers immediately got to work.

As for Garp, who came with Sengoku, he was laughing heartily at the moment.

"Garp! We're standing at a critical juncture in this era of upheaval. One wrong move and the entire era could spiral out of control! How can you still be laughing like this..."

Sengoku roared at Garp.

"I think we've all been played by that old bastard Roger!"

"He knew he wasn't going to survive, so he deliberately let us catch him."

"It was all to use the opportunity of public execution to usher in an era of turmoil."

Upon hearing this, Garp replied to Sengoku.

"You bastard! You know that, and you're still laughing?"

Upon hearing this, Zhan Guo's eye twitched slightly.

"Don't worry! As long as I'm here, this era won't descend into chaos!"

"Don't forget, our navy also has a host of forces in the new era!"

Garp stood with his arms crossed, completely unfazed by Roger's dying words. He knew that Zeff's naval training camp had produced many talented individuals over the years: Sakazuki, Borsalino, and Kuzan—monsters among monsters! Their futures were comparable to, or even surpassed, his and Sengoku's! A new era demands new power; the old will inevitably be eliminated…

"Damn it, these are two different things..."

In response, Zhan Guo grumbled and began his work.

Unfortunately, Sengoku was too late. Roger's words had already been recorded on the World Economic Herald's video recorder, printed in countless urgent printouts, and carried by seagulls flying all over the world...

The times have gone completely mad! They just can't stop...

"Damn it!"

Beneath the execution platform, in the misty drizzle, Shanks and Bucky, both only 15 years old and destined to become Emperors of the Sea, huddled together, wiping away tears and shouting things like, "Captain Roger! Captain Roger, how could you die?!"

After a moment, Shanks looked at Buggy and extended an invitation: "Buggy, come with me! Let's form our own pirate crew together. I'll be the captain, and you'll be my first mate and navigator!"

"Don't be ridiculous! Who wants to be your partner?!"

"Hey, Shanks! From today onwards, we're rivals..."

"ONE PIECE! I don't want to just give it to you, you bastard..."

Upon hearing this, Bucky glanced at Shanks' sincere face, let out a cold snort, then put his hands in his pockets and walked away dejectedly in the drizzle.

Although Bucky and Shanks grew up together, as time went by, Bucky found that the gap between them was widening...

He can no longer keep up with Shanks!

Leave before Shanks completely gets rid of him!

It's better than being unable to keep up with Shanks and becoming despairing, or even becoming a burden to Shanks and preventing him from making further progress...

Shanks is a monster!!

Even though Bucky hates Shanks from the bottom of his heart!

But if we're talking about who in this world can truly inherit Captain Roger's will, then that person is definitely Shanks, at least that's what Buggy thinks...

"It failed? What a pity..."
