"One Piece" Events:
—————————
One week earlier,
Sunny Go sailed smoothly on the calm sea after leaving the Devil's Sea.
"What's happening in the East Blue?" asked Luffy.
Nami, who was reading a newspaper, replied, "Danger! Mystery of towns suddenly disintegrating... In East Blue, towns are being destroyed overnight, one after another."
"Our islands seem to be unaffected for now, but who knows when that will change?" Nami wondered anxiously before giving the newspaper to Luffy.
After hearing that, Chopper explained to Brook, who was smoking a cigarette, "Luffy, Zoro, Nami, and Usopp are from the East Blue."
"I see," replied Brook.
Chopper then turned to Sanji and asked, "Oh, you too, Sanji, right?"
"Well, I was born in the North Blue and raised in the East Blue," replied Sanji.
Back to Usopp and Luffy, who were reading the contents of the newspaper, Usopp exclaimed, "What is this? A meteorite?"
Suddenly the sky over Sunny Go darkened, catching the attention of all the crew members.
The Golden Lion flying ship "Island Ship," which had just returned from destroying some islands in the East Blue and threw some ships at Marineford.
"What is that?!" exclaimed the crew members.
"An island?!" Nami was shocked.
"How is that island flying?!" shouted Luffy.
"It has sails," said Robin.
"Is it a ship?" wondered Franky.

In Kokoyashi Town, East Blue, inside the art store:
"Captain Zeff, what do you think caused the destruction of several islands in East Blue?" Patty asked with concern.
"Well, who else but Golden Lion Shiki could be behind this? Is there another enemy involved in this arc?" Zeff replied.
"That's what I also thought, but could there be someone else?" Carne chimed in. "After all, the Golden Lion is currently with Luffy and his crew in the Grand Line, which is very far from here."
"As if navigation is a difficult matter for someone like the Golden Lion who can fly and make ships and islands fly," Zeff remarked, feeling that his crew's intelligence had declined since they left the piracy business and became cooks.
"The Golden Lion could be responsible for this, but we can't rule out the possibility of other enemies," Zeff continued.
...
..
"The future looks bleak, first the Arlong Pirates caused chaos on this island, and now this situation... could it be the Golden Lion?" Genzo, the current mayor of the town, expressed his concern.
"That's just a rumor, who would dare to follow such a dubious plot after it has been exposed to everyone? Even the greatest pirates wouldn't be able to," Nako, the town doctor, said while sipping Sake.
"Uncle Nako is right, the current world system has changed significantly, it's impossible to be influenced by the events in the manga," one of Genzo's friends added.
"At this point, the events in the manga have become mere entertainment, Haha," another person laughed.
"Most importantly, when can we see Nami and Nojiko grow up before our eyes? I look forward to protecting them from all danger!" A young man's eyes lit up with an obvious case of imaginary Weifu adoration.
"Stop dreaming, both Nami and Nojiko will grow up in Ohara with their mother, Bell-mère," Genzo said with a hint of heartbreak.
...
Syrup Town:
"Seriously? Why the hell is East Blue being targeted? What's going on here?" Yasopp shouted in disbelief. He, like Luffy and his companions, felt uncomfortable. After all, he was the son of this place, and he wouldn't let anyone hurt it.
"Let me guess, that madman, the Golden Lion Shiki is planning to destroy the East Blue because it's the place where Roger was executed. It's obviously a fucking tsundere," Beckman commented, his eyes shining with a sparkle of wisdom.
"Huh? Wasn't it the World Government that chose to execute Roger in the East Blue? What did the innocent residents of East Blue get into this?" Yasopp wondered with hatred.
"Undoubtedly, the Golden Lion in the manga suffers from severe brain damage. He disappeared for 20 years to plan, then he chose the East Blue as the starting target in order to try his weapon 'mutated animals' and then buried the East Blue with Roger," Beckman continued smoking his cigarette while talking.
"I wonder what the expression on his face will be like after he realizes that he will become the number one hated in East Blue, even though he hasn't done anything yet. Hahaha!" Benn Beckman laughed when he noticed the tweets on the [East Blue Regional Forum] were almost endless, and they all had a common title (hashtag): #Damn_you_golden_chicken_Shiki!
"Hahahaha! He will definitely be angry. Maybe this will be a practical reason for him to attack the East Blue," Yasopp laughed when he saw the hashtag outburst in the Regional Forum, which has already begun to extend to the Global Forum.
"Dear Yasopp, I need some help here. There are a lot of clients today, and we can't do all the work," Banshina's voice suddenly came.
Yasopp immediately stood up. "Hey, hey, I'll definitely help!"
...
Foosha Town:
"It's a bit concerning," said Father Mercar.
"I agree," Mother Kamila replied anxiously, "It leaves a bitter feeling in my heart to see such a tragic fate for our East Blue in the manga."
"But staying inside the art store always makes me feel safe and reassured," she continued.
"Hmm?" Father Mercar asked his daughter, Makino, who was attempting to enter the owner's personal area in the art store.
"Makino..." He asked, "Are you going to Ohara again?"
Makino, who was only four years old and considered the little sister of the owner, was the only one allowed to enter that area for no other reason.
"Yes, dad! I miss Robin-chan~" she replied excitedly.
...
Flying Island Merveille:
"Oh... Wow! This is how I met the Straw Hats in the manga. Jihaha! What a majestic entrance," Shiki exclaimed with laughter, feeling excited by the scene.
"Just wait until you see my debut. I trust it will be the most amazing debut ever in this manga, Wororororo!" Laughed Kaido confidently, believing that his appearance in the manga would be the best.
He was looking forward to seeing a world where he is considered the strongest.
"... A world where the Sky Sword Rob exists only as a ghost, Wororororo!" Kaido voiced his thoughts out loud this time.
"Kaido, are you saying that you're cooler than me in the manga? Well, try getting into Impel Down and escaping from it," challenged Shiki.
"Seriously? Before the manga era, when I was bored, I used to go to the Marineford to eat their food and drink their wine before leaving casually. I let them execute me in various ways, but they couldn't. Do you know why?" boasted Kaido.
"Enough, okay, stop. You're great. Sigh... today is my day, man, so respect my feelings," said Shiki in a low spirit.
