Page 60: New World? I Hardly Know Him!

"The time is the Great Pirate Era!"

"Countless pirates fight desperately for the One Piece, the great treasure left behind by Gold Roger, the Pirate King."

"Y/n L/n, a young man whose body can transform into a buffalo after eating the Ox Ox Fruit Model Water Buffalo, also takes the sea to become the Pirate King."

"As Y/n and his friends overcome numerous adventures, the World Government is less and less able to ignore their existence."

"The crew, on its way to the New World, will speed along the Grand Line again today!"

The bustling streets of Sabaody were alive with anticipation. The sun was starting to reach its peak, casting golden rays through the towering mangrove roots. The energy in the air was undeniable, a mixture of excitement, laughter, and chatter. It wasn't just another day...it was a special day.

Today was the Soul King's concert. People moved in waves toward the massive Sabaody Dome, where the world-famous musician was set to perform. Posters featuring the skeleton rockstar were plastered on wall shop windows and sold as souvenirs.

Vendors hawked concert merchandise, selling everything from glowing wristbands to ridiculous afro wigs. Amidst the growing crowd, two figures strolled at their own pace, completely unfazed by the concert rush.

Y/n and Inoko, each holding massive sticks of cotton candy, were leisurely making their way toward the dome while casually eating their sweet treats. "Man, you ever think about how insane it is that a skeleton became a rock star?" Y/n mused, pulling off a chunk of his cotton candy and popping it into his mouth.

"Borororo! Insane? I think it's brilliant!" Inoko grinned, twirling her cotton candy in one hand. "Think about it! The dude died and came back to life, and what does he do? He picks up a guitar and becomes a global icon. If that's not a flex, I don't know what is!" she said.

Hearing this, Y/n chuckled. "Fair point. But what if he wasn't a good musician?" he asked, making Inoko gasp, feigning offence. "Blasphemy! If he wasn't good, he wouldn't be the Soul King! You think people are gonna hype up a skeleton who plays offbeat?!" she said before chewing on her fluffy pink cloud of sugar.

"I mean, did you see those crazy fans? That one guy tried to sell his left shoe just to get closer to the stage," she reminded her captain snort. "Tehehahaha! Desperation makes people do weird things," he said.

"But, I don't know. Maybe people just like the aesthetic," added Y/n, shrugging with a smirk, though it was clear he was excited about what the musical skeleton would do. Inoko waved her cotton candy like a sword. "Well, we're about to find out!" she said before taking a big chunk of her cotton candy.

"But Rindo better have gotten us good seats! I swear, if we have to wait in some giant line, I'm going to lose it," she grumbled, already dreading the idea. Y/n grinned, licking some stray sugar from his fingers.
