"One Piece" Events:
[[Sabaody Archipelago, Grove 1]]
[[Human Auction House]]
All kinds of people, from the commoners to the nobles and even the pirates, were entering the human auction house at this moment.
From the back entrance, Peterman left, very satisfied after successfully kidnapping the mermaid.
"All right, you take care of selling her, okay!?" said Peterman.
"A piece like that, I won't even have to try to get a high price!! Come by later to collect your cut!! Good work, Paterman!"
...
The person in charge of the auction hurried to kneel upon the arrival of the Celestial Dragons.
"... Oh my!! Saint Rosward!! And Princess Sharlia!! Welcome!!"
"I'm afraid I must ask you to put aside your rank and stand with the commoners," he continued, with a trembling voice.
"It matters not, I have no intention of bidding."
"Thank you very much, this way to the VIP seats!!"
"Brother Charlos is certainly late..." Princess Sharlia turned around to search for her brother, but she didn't see him anywhere.
"It's because he rides a lame human, if you're going to ride something, at least make it a Fish-Man. They're 10 times as strong as a human," her father, Rosward, replied disdainfully.
Marigoa, Domain of Gods:
Amidst the group of Celestial Dragons, there was one particular individual who stood out. However, he didn't stand out due to any special qualities or reasons.
The reason he stood out was that both the Celestial Dragons and their guards, as well as the slaves and even the Holy Knights, were all focused on him.
This Celestial Dragon had wide eyes and a sweaty face as he looked at a manga page.
"Is that... me?!"
This Celestial Dragon was in his thirties, with an upward-curled hairstyle, a curly black mustache, and a fluffy gray beard.
Like other World Nobles, he wore a thick white suit with medal-like knobs, but inside the art store, he didn't have a bubble over his head. It wasn't just him; none of the World Nobles had bubbles over their heads here.
This World Noble was named Saint Rosward.
The reason for his shock was obvious. He appeared in the manga, being the first Celestial Dragon to see himself in such a way. The girl next to him appeared to be his unborn daughter.
"...And Charlos she's talking about... he's my newborn son!!!"
Saint Rosward was taken aback, swallowing his saliva in shock. He never expected to appear in the manga like this.
Suddenly, he raised his head and met the sharp glances of the other Celestial Dragons.
"What?" he asked in confusion.
"So, you are the father of those insignificant Tramps in the manga, Rosward? No wonder then..."
"If the reason appears, the wonder is amazed!"
"Damn you! That snotty kid who shot Zoro turned out to be your son Charlos!"
"The little bitch next to you is the first Celestial Dragon to appear. Turns out she's your daughter too!"
"Rosward! How will you explain this? Don't tell us you're going to buy Caimie in the manga! If you do that, your days in Marigoa won't be great, you know."
"The fans among us Celestial Dragons will exceed the limit!"
The world noble burst into curses directed at Rosward and his children. If it weren't for the art store restricting violence, they would have already attacked him and torn him apart.
Saint Rosward sweated even more after witnessing the backlash from his comrades in power.
"Calm down, guys... it's just events in the manga, as you can see. None of this has happened or will happen anytime soon..."
"There's no need for this... I'll make sure my children receive a good upbringing, okay? Stop cursing me, oi?!"
"I won't rest until this guy named Peterman is torn apart, fried in oil, and slowly adjusted to death..."
"Damn you, Rosward! And your children! And Peterman! And the bastard who organizes the auction! And all those damn guests at the auction!"
Well, it seemed that the Celestial Dragons were genuinely furious. They were so enraged that they didn't even listen to what Rosward had to say.
...
"Tsk, call me the Five Elders..."
Upon hearing their supreme commander's command, one of the God's Knights hastily activated the den den mushi.
"These fools no longer have a role in the grand scheme of things. Why not get rid of them?"
Immediately after the line connected, Garling made a bold statement. No, it was undoubtedly a bombshell.
"What nonsense are you telling me, Garling-yo?"
The dissatisfied voice of one of the Gorosei came from the other side.
...
Back in the Samba Kingdom in the South Blue, Eustass Rodd was still in shock after discovering a new character in the manga who shared his family name.
Eustass Rodd was a simple fisherman who had spent a significant amount of time working in the field to provide for his small family, consisting of his wife.
In his wildest dreams, he never imagined that he would see a character in the manga who seemed to be his heir... an heir with a notorious reputation.
The kind-hearted man glanced at his wife's swollen belly, feeling uncertain about how to react or what to do. He wanted nothing to do with an evil pirate who would take the lives of countless innocents in order to gain notoriety at sea.
"Why do you have such a troubled expression, dear?" Assia, a beautiful woman with long red hair, looked at her husband with concern in her eyes.
"Oh, it's nothing... don't worry too much. It's just that this man with the same name as mine has appeared again..."
"Oh? Does our son also make an appearance at the slave auction?"
"...'Tenryuubito'...!! 'Slaves' and 'Human Shops'..."
Standing at the entrance of the guest theater in the auction house, Kidd calmly uttered three words.
(Wah...!! That's... Captain Kidd, from the South Blue!!) Of course, many recognized him.
"Compared to the self-righteous nobles, the scum of the world seems surprisingly humane," said Kidd.
"They fail to understand that the world is in this state because despicable individuals like them control it."
"We have our dark side, but we also have our cute side, right, Killer?" Kidd asked with a mocking smile.
"No mistake," replied Killer.
"If someone interesting shows up, let's buy them, hahaha..."
"Boss Kidd, that's..."
"Hm? There's a familiar face..."
"The North Blue's 200 Million Bounty."
"Trafalgar Law... I've heard some pretty bad rumors about you."
Law turned around and extended his middle finger: ""
"...Your manners are lacking as well..."
"Wow, this kid... he's made some profound statements."
Assia said, "Do you think what Shakky said about him is true? Maybe our son wasn't the crazed killer they portrayed him to be."
Eustass Rodd gazed at his wife's concerned expression and replied with a smile, "Why do you have such unwavering belief that this boy is our son?"
"Perhaps it won't turn out that way... no one really knows."
"But I have this feeling, along with a certain voice..."
"What voice? Anyway, this Trafalgar Law is something else. The way he confronted Kidd is simply outrageous..."
"Bft... hahaha!"
...
At the art store on Flevance in the North Blue, this time.
The sense of closeness returned once again for the Trafalgar couple after witnessing the scene where Trafalgar Law appeared in the manga.
"He's in the human auction house too... What on earth is he doing in such a place?" Mary wondered with anxiety.
"He's a pirate... What do you expect from a pirate? They are free to go wherever they please if they possess enough strength," calmly responded Chriss.
"With a bounty as high as 200 Million, it's no surprise he can venture into such territories," added Chriss.
"What does this red-haired scoundrel mean by saying my son lacks manners-?" Mary's words halted abruptly as she witnessed an unbelievable scene.
Her adorable son had just made an obscene gesture towards the red-haired scoundrel, and to her astonishment, he even slapped her in the face!
"Mary, don't cry. It's not your fault... He's a pirate, you know... That doesn't necessarily make him entirely bad, considering he's a pirate..."
