The fall of the Big Mom Pirates stirred no significant waves across the seas.
Compared to the destruction of the World Government, the annihilation of even a Yonko crew by Ryujiro did not evoke the same level of emotional upheaval.
With the World Government's collapse, the Revolutionary Army rose to prominence. Dragon and the Navy actively collaborated to maintain stability across the seas.
As for the previous Shichibukai, except for Mihawk and Hancock, the others were either dead or imprisoned in Impel Down.
The Revolutionary Army's Kuma, having been turned into a human weapon, was no longer considered a human and hence, no actions were taken against him.
In the New World, on a certain island.
Whitebeard and his sons were holding a banquet on the island.
Whitebeard laughed heartily, "To think that the World Government, which had lasted for eight hundred years, was destroyed by your hand. I never expected it!"
Reflecting on it, Whitebeard felt as though this event had happened just yesterday.
Ryujiro smiled lightly and drank from his cup.
"The old order was bound to be eliminated sooner or later. With Celestial Dragons like those parasites in existence, it's clear that this government was diseased."
"Whitebeard, this island is a good place for your retirement, isn't it?"
Whitebeard refilled his cup, some of the liquor spilling over. "Gurararara, I didn't know how many such islands I had before."
"You little brat, you're clearly exploiting me."
Ryujiro glanced at Whitebeard. "Those islands are not your personal property."
"Hmph."
Whitebeard spat out a curse but said no more, focusing on his drink.
At this moment, Marco, with concern, said, "Pops, you shouldn't drink so much. Your body can't handle it."
"Ugh~"
Whitebeard let out a groan, somewhat unhappy. "Marco, are you going to deprive me of this small pleasure too?"
"Without liquor, what's the difference from being dead?"
Marco hesitated, sighing helplessly.
Ryujiro looked at Whitebeard and suddenly a green aura enveloped him.
This was a medical ninjutsu modified by Ryujiro.
It no longer required physical contact for treatment. Whitebeard's injuries were due to chronic ailments and the frequent use of his Devil Fruit abilities.
Normal doctors could not treat these ailments as they had affected his very essence, making treatment nearly impossible.
"Pops!"
Marco looked at Whitebeard in horror.
Whitebeard felt as if a warm current flowed through his body, making him feel significantly lighter.
Moreover, the scars on his body began to disappear, and the previously aching areas gradually lost their pain.
"You brat!"
Whitebeard knew this miraculous change was undoubtedly due to Ryujiro.
Ryujiro stood up and looked at Whitebeard. "Consider this as a small help."
With that, Ryujiro stepped into the void and vanished.
"Gurarara! Such an unsentimental brat!"
Soon after, news of the disbandment of the Red-Haired Pirates and the Whitebeard Pirates spread across the seas.
This news was somewhat surprising. It was originally thought that these two Yonko crews would meet the same fate as the Big Mom Pirates.
No one expected that the two Yonko crews would end in such a manner.
---
Meanwhile, on the Sabaody Archipelago, Luffy and his crew arrived later than in the original story, but the crew was still as it was before.
Robin, Chopper and Franky had all joined them.
"Oh!!"
"So many bubbles!"
"What's this?"
"It looks delicious."
Luffy, on arriving at the Sabaody Archipelago, was like a curious child. At this moment, a figure appeared not far from Luffy's group.
As the street vendors saw the figure, everyone respectfully called out, "Lord Ryujiro!"
Ryujiro?!
Luffy and his crew stared wide-eyed at the figure.
It was indeed Ryujiro!
Gulp!
Compared to before, Sanji and Zoro felt immense pressure from Ryujiro.
This was the terrifying figure who had destroyed the World Government and reshaped the world order.
Rumor had it that Ryujiro had also wiped out numerous pirate crews recently, leaving only a few scattered pirate crews across the seas.
And those remaining crews were now operating cautiously.
Ryujiro was here; he wasn't planning to deal with them, was he?
"Ryujiro! It really is you!"
"I considered you a friend, yet you attacked us last time!"
Luffy shouted angrily.
Ryujiro glanced at Luffy and spoke slowly, as if not addressing him directly.
"Enough. Stop hiding. Did you think you could deceive me?"
Suddenly, a figure flew in from nowhere.
"Luffy!"
"Did you forget what I told you!"
Bang!
A punch landed heavily on Luffy's head, causing several large bumps to appear.
"Ahhh! It hurts! It hurts!"
Luffy rolled on the ground, clutching his head in pain.
"Luffy!"
Sanji and Zoro shouted in shock.
It was clear that the newcomer was not friendly. This was likely the greatest difficulty they had faced since setting out to sea.
"Luffy."
Luffy shivered at the hoarse voice.
This voice... could it be!
Luffy looked up sharply, and upon seeing the stern expression on Garp's face, he jumped up in fear.
"Grandpa!"
Huh?!
Robin, Nami, and the others were stunned. What did Luffy just say? His grandpa was a Marine Vice Admiral!
Luffy's grandpa was indeed a Marine! And a Vice Admiral!
"Marine Hero Garp. Luffy is actually Garp's grandson."
Robin murmured in shock.
"Robin, you know who Luffy's grandpa is?"
"Yeah."
When Robin told Nami and the others about Garp's identity, everyone stared at Luffy in disbelief.
Luffy's grandpa had fought against the Pirate King!
His grandpa was a Marine, and his grandson had become a pirate. What was going on?
"Grandpa."
Luffy's fear of Garp was ingrained in his bones.
"Luffy, I told you that if you became a pirate, I would personally catch you and bring you back."
"This time, I won't let you go!"
Although Luffy's character would never give up easily, after being severely beaten by Garp, even Nami and the others were taken away.
However, they were not sent to prison but were instead given a chance to understand the current situation on the seas.
Luffy and his crew still had opportunities to set sail, but they could no longer do so as pirates.
Pirates would never truly disappear. The seas needed their presence. Where there is light, there is also darkness.
Justice and evil are interdependent.
