" I think the time of my end is soon"

Exaggerated garp said, wiping his face with both hands. Garp didn't think that the woman that he treat as a daughter, will have a child.. Because damn she was quite a moody person when, he meet her,, but even if she was a Pirate.. Laura was once a normal civilian that Garp took a liking.

When she was, still working as a Chef in a simple restaurant.. In east blue, Garp thought that he had nothing to worry about the kind hearted but, shameless and hotheaded woman,,, he always worry about what would happen to Laura,,if he left her alone in the east blue.. Will she be alright?,,, what will happen if she accidently provoke a noble because of her personality.

Everything was going great and safe then, but Garp meet Roger and saw his daughter figure, on the same ship as The soon to be Pirate King, Garp knowing this almost had a heart attack,,,but didn't stop the woman or protested to the woman.. Well he did try to convince her to think it through, before fully becoming a real member of Roger Crew.

And even if Garp knew it might put her in danger, because he didn't want to lose a child, as he like what almost happened to his son Dragon.. He let her go , respected her decision,,because he knew she was in great hand.. Especially in Rogers Crew,,their all very strong, and even if Roger isn't with her..

He can always rely on Rayleigh to protect her...
And if he ever did protest, he knew Laura will disobey his words, if it means following her dreams..and he won't be able to stop her..

But all the times  he was with Laura, never once did he see anyone approaching her and asking for hand.. Well there are some that flirt with her when she was serving the foods, but he always threatenend them to stay away from his daughter figure.. So Laura never got to answer anyone.

But Its still doesn't makes sense with her having a child that is four years old already did she sneak it on Rogers Ship ... It would have make sense if it was her daughter Jade, because what if she fell in one of Rogers Crew members, and did it. Then he'll have no suspicion.

Buuutt where did she get the child. Garp had so many questions but he knew he didn't have time as Rogers Execution is about to take place.

He will have to ask the child later.
Garp regains conscious and Talked to the two.

Sigh" Never mind that I will uncover those questions of mine later. "
The two were surprised by garp action but, understand why his trying to speed up the conversation.

Garp turned to Roger,and continue their conversation, It was the same as the anime, they botha argue abit but, one sentence change half of the conversation. And that sentence came from Roger.

" I'll leave my child in both of ur care"

This sentence confused Garp " both of us? "
He asked, was he also referring to the kid

"U mean, ki here will also take care of ur child "

"yep"

Roger grinned, before continuing
" she'll take care of my child for 5 years, before entrusting him to u. Well my original plan was for u to raise and keep my child safe but, kiddo here decided to volunteer. "

"and you gave her permission? "
Raise a brow

"yep!"

Garp signed at roger action, but thought of it for a moment.
" then u aren't here to  save this, idiot? "
Garp turned to me while pointing at roger.
"No" I said shaking my head, "although it is tempting to save him and get him out of this, place, so that I can cause the government some stress. but I  can't because it's too troublesome "

' oh my~ ,that sounds like a Nara. I'm becoming more like shikamaru,  well its true though '

Both Garp and Roger's eyes widen by my statement. They blinked before Roger burst out of laughter, Garp on the other hand sighed thinking 'why would a child like her have those kind of thoughts' following by a laugh of amusement.

The two were having fun at my actions. I had already guess that, it amuse them.

"alright enough of that, shall we finish our discussion " roger said after calming down.

Time skip:

As the King of the Pirates  walked through the crowd of people, heading to the plaza in Louge Town. His smile intact with his face, Gol D. Roger the man who reached and lead a pirate crew to the last island.

This was the day where the execution of the most wanted criminal in the world. On a certain roof of a building in louge town. Facing the front plaza of execution. A small figure standing looking at the flat form of the execution, wearing a black hood that cover its head to toes. Golden vines shined as the sun light hits.

The small figures Golden dull eyes, look at the man who sat on the execution flat form, with sadness, acceptance, understanding look.

Gol D. Roger, sat on the flat form ,Looked at the crowd with a smile his face. He glanced at Garp who was watching, making eye contact. He nodded towards him. While Garp sighed, the two old men, turned their attention to the small figure ,standing on the roof. Emotions swarm the two old men's heart.

One felt sadness, the other felt satisfied. ' Even though I have nothing more to worry, I  can't help but feel jealous of Garp. He'll probably meet Laura nee-chan and here I am not  being able to even say my goodbye. Too bad I  won't be seeing that kiddo, turning the world up side down, while hiding behind the public view. I'll miss all the fun out.' Roger chuckled at the thought

"HEY!  Pirate King, where did u hide all the treasure u found?! "

"You got it,  didn't you?!
That legendary treasure!
That great Treasure!
The ONE PIECE!!"

A wide grin was now place in Roger's lips. As he laughed
'And now, this is the day of where the Legendary Pirate Era Began'

"My Treasure?
If you want it, you can have it! "

"FIND IT! "

"I left everything this world has to offer there"

And as the scene in the anime happening in front of the small figure. Gol D. Roger was pierced by two blade ,passing through his body. The small figure winced as it happened, the whole crowd screamed, in happiness because the threat is gone.

It was chaotic, some felt loss, some felt happy, the others felt mixed emotions. Greed, amusement, relief, sadness.

Different kind of emotions wave through the crowd, as some groups of pirate run through the crowd to leave louge town. So the they can find the hidden treasure of the king of the pirate.

Thousand of ships, have set sail to start their journey. The civilians were left at the island.

Fule of blood were spread on the flat form.

The small figure stand on the roof for a long time, staring at the execution, where the pirate king died. The sound of the wind was so peaceful, the u won't even think that there was an execution. A drop of tear fell from the small figure,

They looked at the sky, closed their eyes ,and muttered
" Farewell ,Pirate King ...noh Roger-san"
Their lips gave a good bye smile. They then turned and left. After saying " Now let the great pirate era begin"

Unbeknownst to them, a certain man was watching them. From below, he have been staring at the smalk figure since The pirate king glanced at them. His sword that shaped like a cross hanging on his back, and his eyes that resembles
a hawk.
