One Piece: I Weave the Pirate Codex with My Zanpakuto

Newgate did not immediately agree, but instead took the time to think it over.

"No, not for now. Don't let anyone else know about that place except you and Olvia."

"If supplies are needed, I will personally make a trip to Miracle Island and transport them there using my ship."

"You're quite impolite."

Ross laughed and punched Whitebeard, but at his current height, the punch only reached his kidneys.

“No problem. I will tell Ace and Buster that the Whitebeard Pirates can go and get what they need at any time.”

The white-bearded man walked ahead, with a slight upturn at the corner of his mouth beneath his white beard.

He cherishes this kind of friendship that requires no explanation or calculation, where his friends know when and what he needs.

He didn't ask for reasons or demand money, because Ross knew he had no money.

Beli is an extremely rare item in the Whitebeard Pirates.

"I'm leaving, Ross. It might really be years before we meet again."

"Don't die! It's okay if you get locked up in Impel Down, I'll come and save you."

Before leaving, Newgate glanced sideways at Ross.

"You're strong enough to fight Garp now, but until you get stronger, it's best to avoid him."

"Don't even think about defeating that monster Garp anytime soon. He's a monster that even I have to think twice before I meet."

"Alright, alright, stop nagging and hurry up and go on your adventure. You're just like your grandma back home."

Ross picked at his ear and walked away nonchalantly to the other side.

"It's time for me to head to the next stop."

On the Hana Hanafuda Lizard, Ross, who was taking a nap on a deck chair, examined the new markings on his Zanpakuto.

After fighting Garp for three days and three nights, it was entirely expected that Kenpachi Zaraki's mark would be upgraded to Diamond.

On the contrary, it's meat shizuku.

During the three days and two nights of fighting, Ross did not simply use the Wild Sun technique against the enemy.

Garp's relentless offensive was not only characterized by power, but his speed was also a major reason why Rose was having a headache.

Ye Shai is the main attacker, and Rou Shizuku is the main defender.

It was just that 1% difference that was giving Rose a headache.

"Boss, where are we going now?"

With the pirate ship acting as his proxy, Ross was happy to take a break.

“Go against the flow of traffic towards the park and try to find traces of Zou. The historical text of the road signs I need is located there.”

"Understood, my men, lizards... no!"

Hana Hanafuda leaped onto a high place and roared:

"The Ross Pirates are setting sail!!"

……

Winter at the end of the year, 1485 in the Haiyuan calendar.

Heavy snowflakes drifted down, and the sea surface was covered with many shimmering, diamond-shaped ice blocks.

"Phew, this year's new world is unusually cold."

Hanahata, standing at the bow of the ship, scanned the area haphazardly with his binoculars, trying to spot the giant elephant Ross was looking for.

"Boss, we've been wandering around this area for over two months, and we haven't seen that Zou giant elephant at all!"

On the deck not far away, Ross was doing weight training with Barrett.

"If we can't find it, that's fine. I'll figure out a way later to get your ship to sail to the waters north of Dressrosa, and then head to Fishman Island from the area near the calm zone."

North of Dressrosa?

Hana Hanazha put down her binoculars, a thoughtful look flashing in her eyes.

That sea area...

He remembered that there weren't many kingdoms in that sea area; apart from the isolated Longhand tribe's kingdom, there didn't seem to be any other noteworthy kingdoms.

"Change course, let's go to Dressrosa for supplies first!"

"learn!"

The navigator retrieved the permanent log pointer from Dressrosa and instructed the helmsman to change course.

"Lizard, full speed ahead!"

……

October of the 1486th year of the Haiyuan calendar —

The Lizard departed from the port of Dressrosa and sailed towards the northern seas where the pointer of the new world record could not be pointed.

Rose did not linger long in the fiery country of Dressrosa.

He remembered the matter of the dwarfs, but since he didn't have a good excuse to contact them, he might as well put it aside for now.

The Murlocs and Road Poneglyphs are of paramount importance.

Especially the latter.

Ross remembered that in the original story, after the Roger Pirates obtained Oden, they took away the red Road Poneglyph from Fishman Island.

He didn't intend to bother taking it with him, but he had to make a copy of its contents.

After resolving the Fishman Island issue, only the Road Poneglyphs of Wano Country and Zou remain.

When you're one short of three, the last piece is actually the easiest.

He just needs to wait for the Roger Pirates to find the last piece of the Poneglyph, and then exchange it for the Road Poneglyph of Wano Country.

As for One Piece~

With Olvia's help, Ross suddenly had some...mischievous ideas.

For example, secretly carving "Ross was here" on the land of Laugh Tale.

……

Another month of sailing.

"Boss, are you sure it's okay to drive in this direction?"

The Lizard cruised along the edge of the calm sea.

A few dozen nautical miles to the right lies the doldrums leading to the North Sea. Hana Kazatsu frowned, glancing frequently at the recording pointer in her hand.

The permanent pointer in his hand pointed to the Red Isle of Adventure beneath the Red Line.

That was a special island near Thor's Isle, and also the first stop on the way to the New World.

"This place is very close to the doldrums. If we deviate even slightly, this ship may be stuck in that sea forever."

Ross stood at the bow, his gaze sweeping over the surroundings.

There was nothing but a vast expanse of water.

He wasn't really sure about the location of Punk Hazard Island.

All he remembered was that the Great Hammer Chapter, which Lox was looking for, was on that island, the Giants Chapter frozen by Iron Lightning.

Before traveling through time, when Ross saw the comic book featuring Ironhide's first appearance, he suddenly remembered the plot of the Straw Hat crew landing on Punk Hazard.

Those giants frozen in ice might not have been frozen by the previous Ice-Ice Fruit.

Instead, it was frozen by Tereki, who ate the Zoan-type Squirrel Fruit, Mythical Zoan type Ratatosk form.

He remembered Loki saying something in the original comics—

Only Iron Thunder can unfreeze those frozen by it.

If we follow this line of reasoning, Ross is no longer surprised that Rocks valued the Devil Fruit stored in Elbaf.

The other party may not only be interested in Nighold, but also in Ironlight, who consumed that mythical beast.

The Great Hammer Chapter was unsealed, reviving the strongest giant chapter from hundreds of years ago and helping him ascend to the throne of King of the World!

Ross gently stroked his stubble with one hand, lost in thought.

Several hundred years ago, something likely happened that left the Giant King at a loss, and in desperation, he used the power of Iron Thunder to seal the Great Hammer Chapter.

This is all to leave a chance for people in the future.

Iron Ray's existence is extremely special, and even Lox could only deal with it with caution.

In addition to collecting Road Poneglyphs, he also needs to personally verify the authenticity of the Great Hammer Chapter on this journey.

Once the memories are confirmed to be true, the subsequent plans will need to be adjusted slightly in order to make contact with the giants.

"Boss Ross, I see the island! It's right in front of us!!!"

Suddenly, shouts from pirates echoed from the highest watchtower.

"That island looked very desolate, with huge trees and such, it didn't look like anyone had ever lived there."

Ross pulled himself together, took the binoculars from Hana Hanafuda, and looked ahead.

"Full speed ahead, that island might be the place I'm looking for."

"Understood."

Hana Hanafuda raised her hand and gestured.

The Lizard suddenly became lively.

With all the sails unfurled, the pirates descended below deck and began rowing with all their might.

The shouts of "One, two, one, two" echoed in my ears.

'What's on that island?' / 'Ross, is there anything you need on that island?'

The questions from Locke and Hana Hanafuda rang out simultaneously.

"It's not clear yet. Let's get to the island first, if I'm not mistaken..."

As the island's outline gradually enlarged in his field of vision, Ross's lips curled up slightly, his eyes revealing anticipation.

"The ancient warbands may soon return to the sea."

Chapter 57 The Abandoned Punk Hazard, Traces of the Great Hammer Chapter!

Several days later, the Lizard docked in a bay in the shadows behind Punk Hazard.

Ross disembarked with Olvia and Barrett, accompanied only by Hana Hanafuda, who was equally curious.

"It's amazing that this place isn't on the save pointer."

Hana Hanafuda holds the new permanent record pointer in her left hand and the ordinary three-dial New World pointer in her right.
