A year has passed in the blink of an eye, and on an uninhabited island in the New World, two young men are fighting, and these two are Natsu and Shanks.

Now Natsu is fifteen years old, although he is still young, but the life on the island for more than a year has brought him great changes, wheat-colored skin, restrained muscles, his face is full of heroism, and there is a different kind of aura from the top and bottom of his body, which is the breath of a strong man.

The two duel, Shanks with a Western sword, Natsu with fists. Shanks followed Roger's example and began to learn to use swordsmanship, which he practiced hard for a year, and now has a slight success. Natsu has been working his domineering and physical fitness, and now his weight has reached twenty tons, and when he takes it off, it is a humanoid cannonball. Although he didn't fully master the demi-beast, he mastered a shortcut, partial human-beast, which allowed him to turn one hand or one foot into a dragon form.

The weekly duel between the two began, and the swords and fists collided violently, and the speed was so dazzling that Shanks was eventually inferior, and was punched in the stomach by Natsu.

"It hurts, it hurts," Shanks squatted on the ground clutching his stomach.

"Save it, this punch is useless, what does it hurt. Counting this time, I'm 56-0, Shanks, you still need to work hard. Natsu walked over to Shanks and patted him on the shoulder.

"Bastard Natsu, I'll be able to beat you in the future. Shanks said hatefully.

"Hahaha, I'll wait. "

......

Returning to his lodgings, Natsu was about to start exercising when a communication pigeon flew in front of him, and Natsu took down a newspaper and gave it a couple of Baileys. Natsu was holding the newspaper and was about to open it, when Shanks and Bucky hurriedly appeared in front of Natsu and said incoherently, "Ro... Ralph Drew... One Piece ..."

"Slow down, are you trying to say that Captain Roger has returned from Ralph Drew and has become One Piece. "

Bucky and Shanks nodded hurriedly.

Natsu, who was half a beat slow, suddenly realized something, "What! Captain Roger is back?".

Natsu hurriedly opened the newspaper, and the headline He Ran wrote a headline "One Piece Gordo Roger" Although the name was changed to Gordo Roger, the person in the photo was undoubtedly their Captain Roger. Natsu threw away the newspaper and cried with joy, "Let's go back!".

"Yes!" both Bucky and Shanks burst into tears.

The three of them returned to Crolo Island in a small boat, and not only them, but also many crew members who had traveled far away also came back one after another, and everyone's faces were filled with joy and pride.

"Captain Roger has finally become the King of the Pirates!".

"Although I didn't go to Ralph Drew together, I have no regrets about Captain Roger's safe return. "

......

On the third day, everyone came to the beach, and Roger should be there today. Everyone tirelessly guarded until the sun set, and the familiar pirate flag finally appeared in front of everyone's eyes, and a pirate ship slowly sailed towards them, it was the Orow Jackson. Roger stood side by side with the others on the edge of the boat, waving at them.

Everyone, including Natsu, cried, tears of joy.

As soon as the ship landed, everyone rushed up like wild horses on the loose, and gave a big hug to their friends on board. The three of Natsu pounced directly on Roger, "Captain Roger, you're finally back, woo woo woo..."

"Natsu, Shanks, you're getting a lot stronger, you're getting stronger. "

"Captain Roger, and me?".

"Uh... Bucky also gained a lot of weight. "

“......"

After a reunion of more than a year, the Roger Pirates held a grand banquet, which lasted for three consecutive days. But there was a feast in the world, and after the banquet, Roger announced a news that was unacceptable to everyone, and the Roger Pirates were disbanded.

Everyone was very excited and couldn't understand, especially Natsu, who had waited so long for the day of reunion, but they didn't expect it to be so short.

Roger said with emotion: "I can no longer lead you on the voyage, the future road needs to be walked by yourself, I hope you will be smooth sailing on the road of the new century." It's time for me to rest, like this Orow Jackson. "

The originally joyful atmosphere instantly turned sad, and everyone knew in their hearts that Roger had fulfilled his last dream and it was time to rest.

Bucky yelled, "Captain, I don't want to leave you, leave the Roger Pirates!".

Roger burst into tears as he laughed, "Hahaha, Bucky, isn't your dream of endless treasures, it's time to work hard to make it happen." "

The crew couldn't hold back their emotions any longer, and Wow Wow burst into tears, Natsu and Shanks hugged their heads and cried, and even Reilly left tears.

After the banquet, everyone was drunk, everyone had never been so drunk as today, and they had never been so sad as they were today.

A few more days passed, and the crew of the Roger Pirates left one after another, everyone planned to return to their hometown to live a quiet life, and the Natsu trio were no exception, they all planned to go home to see, and then start a new adventure again, after all, all three were still young, and the fire in their hearts was still burning.

The three Natsu returned to their cabin to pack their belongings. Although more than a year has passed, the place is still very clean, and Roger must have helped to clean it often. The clothes in the closet are still there, and the wanted warrant under Natsu's pillow is still there. Looking at this place full of memories and laughter, the three of them became sad again.

Natsu remembered one thing as he pushed open the closet, took apart the wooden planks on the wall, and pulled out a dusty box and a dusty katana from inside.

Bucky exclaimed, "It's hiding here, no wonder I haven't found it for so long." "

"Hahaha, I guessed that you guy was not honest and deliberately hid so secretly, didn't you expect it?"

"Damn, bastard Natsu is leaving, so why don't you give it to me as a souvenir. Bucky rushed up to grab it.

Natsu kicked him away with a decisive kick, "This is my prize, don't think about it." There's my first wanted warrant here, so take it as a souvenir. "

Shanks asked as he packed his things, "Do you have any plans for the future?"

Natsu replied, "I want to go back to the village and then form my own pirate group and start a new adventure." "

Bucky doesn't particularly care if he is a pirate, he is only interested in treasure. Shanks, like Natsu, wants to continue to be a pirate and repeat the path that Roger has taken before.

The next day, there was a merchant ship bound for Maryjoy, and with a permit, Natsu could follow it home. Although he didn't want to leave so early, Natsu didn't want to miss the opportunity.

"Captain Roger, Mr. Reilly, I am leaving to-day, and I have come to bid you farewell. Natsu said to the two of them, carrying a large baggage.

Reilly nodded, "Natsu, have a nice trip." "

Roger took out his musket and gave it to Natsu, "Natsu, a gift for you, didn't you always want my musket?".

"Thanks, that's cool. Natsu took the musket and played with it.

Roger sighed: "Natsu, my path has been completed, now it's your turn." "

Natsu retracted his smile and bowed deeply to Roger, "Thank you for taking care of you for all this time, goodbye, Captain Roger." "

"Goodbye, Natsu. "
