"There are still 30 years to go, it's a long time."
For ordinary people, 30 years is almost half a lifetime, and even for Dimon, who is a demon, it is a long time.
"Speaking of which, can your brewed elixir of immortality truly grant eternal life without any side effects?"
Roger always felt that there was no such thing as a free lunch.
For example, Devil Fruits can turn you into a landlubber if you eat them, so the magical Elixir of Immortality must also have some negative aspects, right?
"Side effects?"
Dimon thought for a moment and smiled, "The undead can only communicate using their real names."
"What do you mean?" Jabba asked curiously.
"Literally, for example, if you and Roger are both immortals now, and you ask Roger what your name is, he can only answer with his real name."
"What kind of side effect is this?"
Jabba was surprised; compared to those who couldn't swim, the side effects of being immortal seemed far too mild.
He also had some doubts about whether Dimon was telling the truth.
So far, those immortals who have drunk the elixir of immortality are active on this sea, and there have been no reports of any problems.
“That’s not necessarily true.” Dimon chuckled twice. “For immortal beings, sometimes being able to speak their real names is a huge burden. Maybe one day you’ll understand.”
Aside from the fact that he can only speak his real name when facing other undead, Dimonte didn't mention another side effect.
He then turned the topic back to the Roger Pirates:
"Roger, you now know the whole truth of history. Have you considered finding a grand stage to usher in a new era?"
"Hmm? Tell me more about it."
A news story that shocked the world.
The World Economic News published a front-page headline announcing that the Roger Pirates had conquered the Grand Line.
Roger revealed this to Morgans on his own initiative, and in short, the news spread around the world at an incredible speed.
[Ghost Roger, the Pirate King, conquered the Grand Line!]
Roger was rightfully crowned with the title of "Pirate King," standing out from the Five Peaks.
Rumor has it that the Roger Pirates found the true final island and obtained an unimaginable treasure.
Wealth, power, fame!
People pursuing their dreams have brought this incident to the forefront of public attention.
Rocks' reign is over; now it's the era of pirates dreaming!
Many older pirates spread this message.
Countless pirates sprang into action, searching for the Roger Pirates.
The navy also took action.
Just one day later, a thick stack of arrest warrants was sent to all parts of the world by Newsbird.
Gol D. Roger, the "Pirate King"
Bounty: 1.765 billion Berries!
Silvers Reilly, the "Pluto"
Bounty: 1.765 billion Berries!
Skpa Jabba the Mountain Swallower
Bounty: 1.765 billion Berries!
Not only the three leaders of the Roger Pirates, but all members had bounties of varying amounts.
Even Tengetsu, who hitched a ride at the last minute, was put on the wanted list.
Bounty: 3000 million Berry
Of course, Shanks and Bucky, those two little brats, are also indispensable.
Bounty: 1 million Berry
Bounty: 1 million Berry
When Damon saw their bounties, he felt a bit like he was looking at Chopper's wanted poster.
Who do you think you are? This is one of the future Four Emperors!
"Mr. Dimon, why am I also wanted?"
Tianyue took his own wanted poster and ran to Dimon to complain.
"Don't worry, once you return to Wano Country, the Navy won't be able to do anything to you. That's my territory."
Dimon offered a word of comfort.
The only thing that surprised him was that his bounty did not increase; the World Government seemed to be intentionally downplaying his presence.
Naval Headquarters, Marineford.
"I think you've all seen the recent news!"
Zefa stood on the podium and slammed Goldo Roger's bounty poster onto the blackboard.
The bounty of 55 billion put a lot of pressure on the many naval cadets present.
"Roger completed his voyage around the Grand Line and was crowned the 'Pirate King' by the world!"
"Rumor has it they've found the One Piece, which will surely inspire even more pirates!"
Everyone here is the future of the Navy.
If a rookie pirate with a bounty exceeding 100 million is hailed as a pirate supernova upon arriving at the Sabaody Archipelago...
So, the people in this classroom are the Navy Supernovas.
It's the future of the navy!
One of the young trainees, who looked to be around eighteen or nineteen, appeared somewhat lazy, resting his chin on his hand as if he were about to doze off at any moment.
A piece of chalk was thrown from Zefa's hand, hitting the man squarely on the forehead.
"Kuzan, are you listening?"
"Oh dear, I'm sorry, Zephyr-sensei."
Kuzan touched his forehead, then sat up straight, and suddenly raised his hand again: "I have a question."
"What do you want to say?" Zephyr said irritably.
This new naval recruit joined this year, but he immediately showed potential that surpassed countless others. Zephyr took a liking to him and accepted him as his disciple.
"Zeff, aren't you immortal? The future of the Navy doesn't depend on us, does it? You're an admiral, it's up to you."
Upon hearing this, Zephyr's face darkened, and he walked step by step in front of Kuzan, punching him hard on the head.
"I'm an instructor now!"
A burst of laughter came from the surrounding area.
"What's so funny?" a young navy officer wearing a baseball cap scoffed.
This person's name is Sakazuki.
There was also a person sitting there calmly, but if you looked closely, you would find that he was lost in thought.
Borsalino sighed silently. "Isn't get out of class over yet?"
The two were classmates, having joined the Navy two years prior, and both distinguished themselves with outstanding achievements.
Chapter 64 The Kuja Pirates Arrive
Wano Country, outside the Great Waterfall.
The Roger Pirates immediately sent Dimon and Toki back.
"That's enough, I can fly back."
Dimon bid farewell to Roger and the others, but they were all somewhat reluctant to part.
"Why don't you just join our pirate crew? What's the point of being a general?" Jabba urged.
"Yeah, Damon, Shanks and Bucky will be talking about you all the time."
"Who wants to talk about him? You should just leave, Dimon!"
Bucky gave a haughty snort.
Dimon smiled and patted Bucky's head. Bucky was quite cute when he was little.
"My study illuminates the lives of millions of people in Wano Country. How can I just abandon them?"
Reilly: "..."
You, a traitor who stole a country, aren't you ashamed to say such a thing?!
"Why don't you invite us up for a seat?" Roger suggested.
"Forget it, you twenty or thirty people think you can just freeload off me for six months?"
Dimon rolled his eyes, reached out and put his arm around Tianyue Shi's waist, then conjured a pair of jet-black wings and took flight in the blink of an eye.
"Farewell, Roger Pirates."
Leaving behind a sentence, Dimon carried Tianyue and left without looking back.
As he left, Roger and the others simply waved silently.
Bucky was feeling down. Ever since Damon joined the crew, besides Shanks, he was the only one who could really hang out with him.
It feels like I've lost a playmate.
Roger chuckled and patted Bucky on the shoulder. "We'll be back, Bucky."
“Really, Captain?” Bucky’s eyes lit up.
"When have I ever lied to you?"
Roger smiled; his next task was to search for more Devil Fruits.
However, the journey ahead will also be a formidable challenge.
The title of Pirate King will not only attract pirates, but the Navy will also be more focused on him than ever before.
Even a powerful crew like the Rocks Pirates eventually met their end, and as their captain, Roger also felt considerable pressure.
"Let's go, time to set sail!"
Wano Country, Kuri Beach.
Dimon returned with the Heavenly Moon and descended upon the sand.
"Is this Wano Country? It's not quite what I imagined."
Amatsuki looked around curiously; according to her parents, Wano Country wasn't like this.
However, that was more than 800 years ago. With the passage of time, nothing remains unchanged.
"Shall we go for a walk? Wano Country now has six major regions, with Flower Capital being the royal capital. We can start from Kuri, travel throughout Wano Country, and finally head to Flower Capital."
Since there's nothing else to do, Dimon doesn't recommend picking up girls along the way.
Tianyue was a little shy.
She could sense that Dimon seemed to have a bit of a crush on her, but no one had ever pursued her before, so she didn't know what to do.
This voyage was an unforgettable experience for her, and she developed some feelings for Dimon.
“Okay, where should we go now?” Tianyue Shi thought for a moment and then smiled brightly.
"In short, let's first go to Kuri, then Nozomi, then Suzuko, Hakumai, Udon, and finally from Udon to Hanato."
They quickly planned out a route and traveled together.
Girls in this era are much easier to get along with than women from before the time travel; they don't cause as much trouble.
