After the "friendly sparring" with Garp and the "polite greetings" with Newgate, the Oro Jackson finally enjoyed a few days of genuine peaceful sailing.
The aftershocks of the battle with Whitebeard continued to ripple through the Oro Jackson for several days. The crew members, especially newcomers like Erio, still had their eyes gleaming ...

The reason was simple—compared to the earlier Slaking, Kangaskhan was incredibly well-known among Pokémon. Due to its distinctive appearance, it...
2025-08-22 16:24:47 +0000 UTC View PostThe worst part was that it was still under the control effect of "Encore," meaning it would continue to use "Bulk Up" next turn.
And the turn after that, Slaking would recover and use "Hyper Beam" to strike first, taking away all of Bewear's remaining HP!
Most critically, Cynthia discovered in the Gym battle that Gym Leaders seemed t...
2025-08-22 16:14:04 +0000 UTC View PostIt took Cynthia quite a while to recover from the shock of encountering Leftovers again and refocus her thoughts on this battle.
With Leftovers triggering, Slaking's HP bar, which hadn't dropped much to begin with, was restored once more.
How the heck was she supposed to deal with this?
You have to understand, Leftovers' activa...

Small probability events are called small probability events precisely because their likelihood of occurring is indeed extremely low.
Take the Tangled Feet ability's trigger rate—it's only 25%. And this time, the Linoone that had fallen into a confused state wasn't affected by...
2025-08-21 14:30:29 +0000 UTC View PostTo be honest, the scene before her eyes really startled Cynthia.
Although it was just for an instant, watching Linoone's body surge with red light and the notification "Attack rose to 18,000 points," her heart truly couldn't calm down.
The reason was simple - based on her understanding of this move, like many other moves before, it w...

A bonfire was lit, its warm glow illuminating every excited face. Having just experienced a heart-pounding battle, the crew showed no signs of fatigue—instead, their spirits were at an all...

With Roger's commanding shout, the massive anchor was hoisted up, and the brand-new sails unfurled with a satisfying "whoosh" in the sea breeze.
The Oro Jackson—this golden vessel born from dreams and masterful craftsmanship—silently glided out of the dock under the watchful eyes of all Water 7.
She moved wit...

Water 7's mornings always awakened to this rhythmic hammering.
Since Tom's shipyard took on that earth-shaking order, it had become the liveliest place in the entire city.
The ding-dong of hammers, the screech of saws, the rough work songs of shipwrights, mixed with the scent of sea breeze and wood shavin...

The result was that the other half of the island had been completely sunk by the aftershocks of their battle, becoming a handful of dust on the Grand Line's seabed.
The instigators—Garp and Roger—collapsed on the beach like two exhausted bulls, panting heavily i...

The Oro Jackson rested quietly in the bay while crew members worked in small groups, hauling barrel after barrel of fresh water aboard.

At this moment, a unique "strength contest" was underway.

Roger's eyes sparkled brighter than gold itself, as if he could already see the ship carrying his dreams cutting through wind and waves. Rayleigh and Gaban wore equally yearning expressions.

2025-08-20 02:44:28 +0000 UTC View PostAfter the "friendly" encounter with Garp ended, the Roger Pirates returned to their usual boisterous routine.
But as the crew continued to grow, a practical problem gradually surfaced and became increasingly serious.

2025-08-20 02:39:35 +0000 UTC View PostAt dawn, Kyle struggled to sit up on the beach; everything in his vision doubled.
On the beach, two energy-overloaded monsters had already begun their morning training.
"Ora ora ora ora!"
"Muda muda muda muda!"
Roger swung his sword while Gaban wielded his axes, engaged in a meaningless but incredibly intense clash.
As it turns out, pirates are creatures whose recovery ability is directly proportional to their destructive urges, while their reasons for celebrating are inversely proportional to their moral standards.
One second, it was a life-or-death battlefield; the next, it had transformed into a buddy-buddy drinking session.
On the beach, a m...
