Kapitel 23: World Government Attention

¶¶¶

"Huh, this is really the most interesting thing I have seen in all my years."

In a dimly lit hall, an old man with the scar on the left side of his face, a hat over gray braids, and a walking stick. Threw the third volume of One Piece manga next to the first and second volumes he had previously finished.

The quality of these folders was inferior to the original because they were printed on plain paper by den den mushi fax type, other than the original folders made with the ability of a devil fruit.

"To think that there is someone in this world who wastes their time drawing nonsense and selling it to people is really interesting."

Another old man spoke with obvious disdain, his figure was slim and tall and he had a long white beard.

"At least he deserves some praise for drawing that bastard Roger being executed by our Navy, one day it will be done and justice will prevail."

This time the man who talks is a man who looks younger than the old men has blond hair and a short beard and wears a formal suit with a tie.

"Didn't you notice that these comic books contain real places? It seems that the author of this story is not just an amateur... But well, what is really interesting is knowing what kind of devil fruit this man by the name of Rudes D. Rob is using..."

A bald man with large patches of birthmarks on his forehead and a large white mustache was browsing the Encyclopedia of Devil Fruits intently, it seemed as if he was searching for some kind of Devil Fruit that could create buildings out of thin air.

"The cursed D clan again, this Rob can't be without a past, we have to get his info first before doing anything about him… I feel something is wrong about this guy and what he's doing…"

The last one among the group of five is the oldest in age. He's bald, he wears white glasses. He also carries a samurai sword with him. He is the only one of the five who doesn't wear a black suit or tie, and the only one without facial hair.

He also seems to be the only one of the five who takes the manga's issue seriously.

These people were the world rulers and the pinnacles of all existences in this world, the Heads of the World Government, the Five Elders!

Yesterday they received an urgent report from the head of CP5 Spandine about the mystery store selling comic books under the title One Piece, and today they received three copies of the books released so far from the story, under the titles, "Romance Dawn", "Orange Town" and "Arc Village Syrup".

It was such an unprecedented thing for them, even the five elders found this man's story interesting, but they still hated him promoting piracy ideas so well without any right to do so.

If this man really continues to decorate the image of a pirate like this they will punish him well, they are not unreasonable, they also admire the new and interesting kind of art that this man has created, but he should draw the ideas they want him to paint or it is better for him to stop.

After a lengthy discussion regarding this matter, the five elders agreed to find out the man's origin first before making any kind of decision about him, they called the navy and ordered them to search for the record of this man who is a relic of the cursed clan and send it to them as soon as possible.

Rob was already expecting it, so he wasn't nervous or worried at all, well since they already found out, he has no worries now, he can do whatever he wants and go to hell the World Government!

...

On this day, Rob moved among the three shop from Ohara to Baterilla and from Baterilla to Flevance constantly, because today is a very special day.

Today was the desired day for One Piece fans!

The third volume of the series, under the title, Arc Village Syrup, was released as well as a secondary arc before this main arc.

The secondary arc was the story of the box man Gaimon, which the crew encounters on a deserted island inhabited by strange animals. This strange man had been trapped in the box for 20 years due to his greed for treasures, in the end with Luffy's help it was found that this man's treasure boxes above the mountain were empty but Luffy didn't tell him this devastating truth.

The box man Gaimon became the title of misfortune for One Piece fans in the Three islands, his luck was so bad that they became less greedy for treasures just because of him, even pirates and villains who read One Piece were saddened by Gaimon's story.

The main arc is where the fourth member of the Straw Hat Pirates, the god Usopp, joins.

Leader of the eight million pirates, the terrifying and future pirates emperor!

The mere fact of him being the son of Yasopp as a member of Shanks' crew was great enough for followers to accept Usopp in their hearts as a respected member of the Straw Hat Pirates.

At the moment of his appearance, he caused a great wave of laughter on the Three Islands, his cheerful and energetic personality was a great factor that made the colors of the comic story more vivid.

In this arc, the crew also got their own ship, Going Merry, the ship that will make these fans' heartache in the future.

Also in this arc, the Straw Hat crew defeated the second pirates' crew after the Clown Buggy pirates, the Black Cat pirates crew, and their Captain Kuro.

Followers especially liked the cute girl Kaya, she was so beautiful and gentle that they would want to protect her, and they also wished for her to join the crew as a doctor, but the author, unfortunately, broke the fans' wish.
