1 Chapter 1 Monster Of The Weakest Sea

The towering execution platform in Logue Town.

As the execution knife penetrated Roger's body, the square fell into a brief silence, and then burst into cheers.

Some people cheered because the evil "Pirate King" was finally executed, but more people cheered because of his last words before his death.

"Do you want my treasure? If you want it, I can give it all to you. Go find it! I put all the treasure there!"

Cheers erupted in the square.

On the wall outside the square, nine-year-old Dylan was riding on the wall and scanning the field.

"Redhead" Shanks, "Heavenly Demon" Doflamingo, "Hawkeye" Mihawk, "Sand Crocodile" Crocodile, Revolutionary Dragon, Buggy, Moria.

Some were expressionless, some were smiling gloomily, and some were wailing.

Dylan stretched out his hand to catch the raindrops falling from the sky, looking at the strong men who would become world-famous in the near future.

"The era of great pirates has begun..."

.....

Half a month later, on the unknown island of East Blue.

"Kid, this is the Marine branch, what are you doing here?" A bearded Marine stopped a thin figure.

"I want to join the Marines."

"Join the Marines? The Marines aren't a place to play house. Where is your family? Go back quickly."

Dylan shook his head. "I don't have a family."

The Marine at the door was stunned for a moment, seeming to understand something in this era.

Killing, looting, war, oppression - everywhere.

Looking at the somewhat silent young man in front of him, whose clothes were shabby but not dirty, the guarding Marine nodded and said, "Wait here for a moment."

When he walked out of the base again, he was followed by a tall Marine.

"May I have your name?"

"Dylan."

"Why do you want to become a Marine?"

Dylan thought for a moment. Maybe it was because after he was a transmigrator, he found that his new body had nothing else to rely on except good physical fitness.

After witnessing Roger's execution in Logue Town, Dylan selected this regular and inconspicuous Marine Base from the map.

As for why not stay in Logue town? There will be a lot of trouble there in the future so it's not a good choice.

And in addition to East Blue, people from all over the world and even the Grand Line often go to Logue town to pay homage to Roger's "place of beginning and end."

Joining the Marines means you can get systematic training, and as long as you have talent, you can get enough resources. Even if you can't awaken Conqueror's Haki, you can still greatly improve your combat effectiveness with "Marine Six Styles."

"For peace."

Dylan said with certainty, looking at the Marine flag flying in the center of the base.

"Peace..."

Following Dylan's gaze, the Marine also saw the flag. It was that flag that shocked and protected the sea.

"Register him as a handyman. He can participate in basic training and be responsible for some chores."

"Yes!"

After saying that, the tall Marine turned around and went in. The Marine who was at the door waved to Dylan.

"Follow me, kid, we will be companions from now on, hahaha."

......

Sea Circle Calendar 1512.

"Major, this department has summoned us to report that the tracks of the 'Red Hair Pirates' have been found in East Blue."

"Shanks?"

Dylan subconsciously reached for the knife next to him. Is he coming to East Blue?

Redhead, why did he come to East Blue?

To see Buggy? Going to Logue Town for nostalgia? As one of the future Four Emperors, it is impossible for Red Hair not to know that Goa Kingdom is Garp's hometown.

Then why did he go to Windmill Town? What is he Looking for? He probably doesn't have strength to face Garp the moment.

Or... Go to Shimotsuki Village?

"What does the base commander suggest?"

"Just report the trajectory, no head-on conflict required!"

"I understand. Inform the base commander that I will be away for a few days."

"Yes!"

After leaving the base, Dylan had already changed into regular clothes.

His long white hair was scattered casually on his shoulders. His height of 2.2 meter(7+ feet) made his figure look even taller and slender. There was a hint of coldness on his handsome face.

The black scabbard was casually inserted at his waist. Dylan gripped the knife's handle in one hand and put his other hand in his trouser pocket as he boarded the ship to the Kingdom of Goa.

...

The sea area near the Goa Kingdom.

A small boat floats on the sea.

In the distance is a similarly small pirate ship.

The flag on the ship is a skull with a scar on its left eye.

"Boss, there's someone in front of us, it seems he's coming for us," Yasopp said, picking up the telescope to get a better look. "There is only one person, no flag, no Marine uniform, and carrying a sword."

"Oh? Are you a swordsman?" The red-haired man walked from the cabin to the deck wrapped in bloody gauze, looking in the direction Yasopp was observing.

As if feeling his gaze, the people on the boat raised their heads at the same time.

"There doesn't seem to be any goodwill, Shanks. Shall I go?" Benn Beckman, who was smoking a cigarette at the side, asked.

"Wait a minute," Shanks raised his right hand. "Let's take a look."

As the two ships approached, Shanks stood on the side of the ship and looked at the boat floating beside him. "It seems like you are waiting for me?"

Dylan raised his head without touching the knife lying sideways. "Yes."

"Come up and chat? Or should I jump down?"

Dylan picked up the long knife and appeared on the deck of the red-haired pirate ship in a flash.

"Bring the wine,"Shanks waved his hand to stop the crew members who were about to make a move.

"This is a fine wine from my hometown. It tastes different from East Blue's. Do you want to try it?"

After a large bowl of strong liquor went down his throat, Shanks asked with a smile, "How was it?"

Dylan nodded without comment.

Upon seeing this, Shanks put down the big bowl in his hand and his expression became serious. "So... why are you waiting for me here? Marine."

Hearing the word "Marine," the others' expressions instantly became tense again. Yasopp even raised his gun slightly but was suppressed by Benn Beckman's hand.

Ignoring other people's little moves, Dylan looked Shanks directly in the eyes and asked, "Why do people like you come to East Blue? Isn't the New World not enough for you?"

"It's just traveling around the world. This is normal for pirates, isn't it?" Shanks replied with a smile, but his expression was not relaxed.

Dylan continued to gaze at Shanks, showing disbelief in his expression.

Shanks looked at him and then laughed. "Sorry, as for the deeper reasons, I can't tell you for the time being."

After hearing the red-hair's answer, Dylan stood up and looked around. "Don't stay in East Blue for too long."

After speaking, Dylan jumped off the side of the ship.

As the boat traveled a distance, Shanks seemed to remember something and stood on the side of the boat, calling out to Dylan, "What about you? Why are you in East Blue again?"

Dylan did not look back and raised his hand with his back to Shanks. "Like you, I won't stay here for too long."

After Dylan's boat disappeared from sight, Shanks was still looking at the sea in a daze.

"Shanks..."

"Ah...I'm fine. He's such an interesting guy." Turning around, Shanks grinned at the crew. "I didn't expect that there are so many interesting people in East Blue. Is it really the hometown of the captain?"

"East Blue?" Yasopp, who was also from East Blue, laughed. "East Blue is called the 'weakest sea'."

Before anyone else could react, Shanks looked stunned, and Benn Beckman's hand holding the cigarette froze in the air.

Lucky roo asked while munching on the bones, "What's going on? You two?"

Shanks smiled bitterly and said nothing. Benn Beckman took a heavy drag on his cigarette and said, "In the past, we all thought that the reason why East Blue was weak was due to route problems and Garp. Now it seems..."

"Phew!"

After exhaling a thick puff of smoke, Benn Beckman continued, "In addition to Garp, East Blue also hides an amazing guy."
