One Piece: These Marines Have a Conscience, but Not Much

Author: Have you ever heard of Axe Emperor Monka doing sit-ups?

Bystander: Gasp, never heard of it.

Author: Have you ever heard that the commander of the Revolutionary Army and several daughters of the Four Emperors teamed up to suppress an admiral?

Bystander: Gasp, never heard of it.

Author: Have you ever heard that Nami has athlete's foot?

Bystander: Gasp, never heard of it.

Author: Then I bet you haven't heard that the Empress has a black face either...

The bystander frantically shakes their head...

Author: So you really haven't heard anything!

One day.

Kikuchi Asuka received a mission to capture pirates.

As he stood aboard a pirate ship, having beaten the captain half to death, he suddenly heard the captain say, "A man's dreams never end."

Kikuchi Asuka: "You're right. So what's your dream?"

Lying on the deck, the pirate captain let out a wicked laugh.

"My dream is to find Roger's One Piece, yohohohoho..."

After hearing this, Kikuchi Asuka nodded and said softly,

"I get it. I can't help you find the One Piece, but I can bring you one step closer to it."

With that, Kikuchi Asuka gently tapped the deck. In an instant, the pirate ship left the water and flew off in an unknown direction.

Two days later.

In the waters of Totto Land in the New World.

A ship from the East Blue crashed into Big Mom's castle.
