Chapter 1 - Chapter 1 The Sword of Damocles

On a sunny afternoon, the summer sun was like a big fireball, as if it was going to burn everything in the world.

In such weather, everyone became lazy and had no motivation.

However, in such an environment, on a small island in the sea, there was a group of people, with red faces falling to the ground, looking drunk, obviously drunk a lot of wine.

Looking at the skeletons of beasts everywhere, it means that they may have held a grand banquet.

At this time, a young boy with a big red nose opened his eyes in a daze.

  "Well, what is that?"

He saw something in the sky. Just when he thought he was hallucinating because he drank too much, he found that the thing in the sky became clearer and clearer. He rubbed his eyes quickly, and sure enough, the thing was still there.

"Captain of the boat, boat, boat, look up in the sky."

This discovery immediately made his mind clear, and he shouted loudly.

With this shout, the rest of the people also slowly woke up.

  "Hey, Buggy, what are you yelling for?"

That's right, the little guy who was yelling just now was an intern from Roger's pirate group, and the person who just finished a banquet on this island was a member of Roger's pirate group.

  "No, Captain, look up in the sky."

"Huh?" Hearing Buggy's panicked shout again, Roger raised his head and squinted his eyes.

  "What is that, a sword?"

Seeing the object in the sky, Roger thought in his heart, and the others began to talk about it, because the object hanging in the sky was too conspicuous.

"Is it Shiki?" Roger whispered, because in his impression, only the Golden Lion's Floating Fruit could do this.

"Well, it should be him, I can't think of anyone else who has this ability, but where did he get such a big sword from?"

The person who said this was a yellow-haired man wearing glasses, he was Pluto Silvers Rayleigh.

At this time, the eyes of the two people were a little solemn, because the Golden Lion was not a simple character, even they had to deal with it seriously.

At this moment, a burst of white light suddenly appeared on the giant sword, and then something separated from the giant sword and fell from the sky.

Seeing this, Rayleigh held his hand on the hilt of the sword. As long as there was something wrong, he would immediately fly out a slash.

"Don't act rashly, Rayleigh, this should not be the Golden Lion."

Hearing Roger's words, Rayleigh's hand loosened the hilt slightly, but from his current movements, it can be seen that he can still draw the sword in an instant.

  "It seems to be a person."

As the white light got closer and closer to the land, the people on the island slowly saw the things in the white light.

  "Yes, there is indeed a person in it."

This sentence came from Roger's mouth.

Then the other people on the island relaxed. How strong can only one person be? They, the Roger Pirates, are not afraid at all.

Even if the Whitebeard Pirates appeared in front of them at this time, they can now be calm.

As for the nervous performance just now, it was completely because something beyond their cognition appeared, so it was inevitable that they would be a little nervous.

But now that they know it is a person, there is nothing to be afraid of.

"He won't fall and die, will he?" At this time, the big red nose Buggy started to speak again. Although he was a timid person, he was fearless in the Roger Pirates.

"Who knows, but even if he fell and died, it has nothing to do with us?"

A red-haired boy next to Buggy spoke up. He was another trainee in the Roger Pirates, Shanks.

At this time, he didn't have the three scars on his face, and he didn't look so domineering.

When the white light landed, there was no "sensational" sound of heavy objects falling to the ground as everyone imagined, but it landed on the ground in a very stable posture.   

After the white light faded, a boy who looked about 17 or 18 years old appeared in front of everyone, and the huge sword in the sky also disappeared, as if it had never appeared.

At this time, the boy lying on the ground became the focus of everyone.

"It seems that the sword should be made by this kid."

"Hey, Buggy, see if you can wake him up and ask him what's going on."

  "Yes, Captain."

After receiving the task issued by the captain, Buggy picked up a bucket of unfinished wine from his side and poured it on the head of the white-haired boy.

However, the boy seemed to be dead and had no reaction at all.

"Report to the captain, he should be dead."

"Get out." Hearing this, the deputy captain Rayleigh scolded Buggy.

His observation color sensed clearly that the white-haired boy's heart beat very steadily.

"He should just fainted. Buggy, Shanks, I'll leave him to you two to watch over. Tell me when he wakes up."

  "Yes, Captain."

Then the Roger Pirates went about their business. Some continued to lie down and rest, while others continued to drink after they had just woken up.

After all, they had escaped from the hands of the hero Garp again, so they should have a good rest and celebrate.

"Hey, Buggy, you watch here first, I'll go have a drink."

"Shanks, forget it. If you want to drink, it's me, Uncle Buggy, who should drink. You're the one who should watch here."

"Well, go ahead. I'll watch here and drink after you finish drinking."

Hearing what Shanks said, Buggy was obviously stunned for a moment. When did Shanks become so easy to talk to?

"Okay, Shanks, then Uncle Buggy will go have a drink."

As Buggy turned to leave, Shanks punched him in the face.

"Report to the deputy captain, Buggy is absent from duty, I tried to persuade him and he punched me."

Just when Buggy was about to go out for a drink happily, he suddenly heard such a sentence. Turning around, he saw a red and swollen mark on Shanks' face.

Seeing Shanks's appearance, Buggy knew that he was played.

"Deputy captain, listen to my explanation. I didn't. Shanks made it like this." Buggy explained in a panic.

"So you mean he beat himself up like this." Rayleigh heard Buggy's explanation and said.

  "Yes, that's it."

"Then do you think Shanks is stupid? He beat himself up."

Hearing Rayleigh's words, the smile on Shanks' face suddenly froze. Am I stupid? Beating myself up is pretty stupid, but it's nothing to be stupid for a while for the sake of wine.

"But it was really Shanks who beat himself up."

"Okay, Buggy, you don't have to say anything. You did your job to guard him. As for Shanks, you should do what you should do."

"Yes, deputy captain." Hearing this, Shanks happily went out for a drink.

"Shanks, you are shameless, you are a scoundrel, you have no shame."

Seeing Shanks' happy back, Buggy shouted angrily.

Then he turned his eyes to the white-haired boy, "It's all your fault. Now I can't drink."

  Then he kicked him lightly.
