King Arthur, Apprentice of Roger’s Company Chapter 042

Loguetown!

The Town of Beginnings and Ends.

Of course!

This is how it will be known in the future. Right now, Loguetown is just a not-so-famous town. However, because it’s the last stop in the East Blue before entering the Grand Line, it’s relatively developed overall. There’s no doubt about that.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh~~~

Whoosh whoosh whoosh~~~

As the ship gradually docked, Arthur and Rayleigh both leaped off. Anyway, they didn’t have anything to prepare. Oh! It’s worth mentioning that Arthur’s harvest in the Sabaody Archipelago was enormous. Not to mention the gold and silver treasures, he alone acquired a terrifying number of 50 Devil Fruits.

Now, he has 55 in his possession.

Unbelievable!

To be able to acquire such a terrifying amount, one can only say! This is the Celestial Dragons! Apart from the Celestial Dragons, no one else could possibly achieve this. Thinking about it carefully, it’s not surprising.

Celestial Dragons!

For them, everything is within reach. They aren’t interested in subordinates. They constantly talk about CP 0, and if there’s a slight problem, an Admiral is dispatched. Do they need to cultivate their own power?

If they wanted to cultivate it, would the Five Elders truly allow it?

Therefore!

The Celestial Dragons collected a lot of Devil Fruits. For them, Devil Fruits are basically equivalent to collectibles.

In addition!

Arthur also prepared a Devil Fruit for Hancock. Perhaps it was fate! That Mero Mero no Mi was actually among them, and it was one of the very few that he didn’t directly devour to become energy, but rather mixed in with the other gold and silver treasures.

One can only say!

This is fate!

“Vice-Captain Rayleigh!”

“Arthur kid!”

“Hmm?!”

Hearing the shouts, Arthur and Rayleigh looked towards the distance. Taro, whose clothes had “TARO” on them, and Doringo, who had wing-like decorations appearing on his back during battle, walked over boldly.

“Taro!”

“Doringo!”

Rayleigh smiled and greeted them, “Long time no see, you two. How have you been these past three months?”

“Hahahaha~~~”

“Pretty good!”

“Yeah!”

Both of them looked bold and radiant, showing that they had a lot of fun during these past three months. After all, everyone was a pirate, and what do pirates generally do when they’re resting?

Gambling!

Red-light district!

Gambling, prostitution, and drugs!

Anyway, none of those were missing! This wasn’t strange. For pirates, that’s their personality. And almost all, or rather, all pirates, live by putting their lives on the line!

Under such circumstances, what do you think the daily lives of pirates are like? Why can’t pirates save money? In fact! This kind of life has already told everyone, this is what a pirate is!

Taro and Doringo, as expected, lived like this for the past three months.

Of course!

This is how other people live. Although they are companions, it’s better not to meddle in each other’s private lives.

Secondly!

With their arrival, soon, others also arrived one by one. Soon! As night fell, everyone gathered in a small bar. The bar wasn’t big, but it was very quiet.

“Only Roger hasn’t arrived yet, right?”

Jabba looked around and asked.

Rayleigh took a sip of beer and nodded, “Indeed, only Roger is left. Let’s wait a bit longer! Knowing Roger’s personality, something must have delayed him. Otherwise, when it comes to gathering, Roger is faster than anyone.”

“Hmm?!”

Barrett, who was beside them, looked at Arthur and said seriously, “Arthur, you’ve gotten stronger in these past three months!”

Arthur took a sip of wine and nodded, “Of course I have to get stronger, Barrett, you’ve also gotten stronger.”

“Ah!”

“Are you two monsters?”

“Sigh!”

Shanks and Buggy couldn’t help but complain. Both of them could be said to have made rapid progress. In these three months, they had trained incredibly hard with Captain Roger, but what happened! The two of them progressed even faster. Are you monsters?

Arthur and Barrett just smiled without saying anything.

Creak!

And just as everyone was discussing, Roger pushed open the bar door with big strides and walked in. Looking at everyone in the bar, he grinned and said, “Everyone’s here, right?”

“Everyone!”

“I have something to announce!”

“Hmm?!”

Hearing Roger’s words, everyone was stunned and looked at Roger in unison, not understanding what this was all about.

To be honest!

Everyone found it very strange that they were given a vacation this time! They had never seen a pirate crew take a vacation before!

However!

This was Captain Roger’s order, so they could only obey. Now that they heard Roger was going to announce something, everyone felt even stranger. Was there something wrong? Or was it some other situation?

However…

Arthur, Rayleigh, and Jabba, who knew about this matter, remained calm. Although the three of them knew these things, they couldn’t say much, and there was no way to say much. Listening quietly, perhaps that was the best outcome for everyone.

“Hahahaha~~~”

Roger watched everyone quietly looking at him, a grin spreading across his face. He couldn’t help but burst into laughter. He casually found a chair and sat down, looking bold and completely unconcerned. He said, “My body has reached its limit!”

“A terminal illness!”

“If nothing unexpected happens, I only have a few years left to live. So…”

“Before my name runs out, I want to embark on my final voyage!”
