Chapter's Events:
—————————
"The son of Dragon…!?"
The Marines were bewildered upon hearing that.
…
"Whaaaaa!!?"
Both Buggy and Galdino opened their mouths in shock.
…
Helmeppo and Koby felt resigned after hearing a truth they already knew.
"He went and said it…!!"
"Luffy-san…!!"
…
"!!!"
Moria was shocked the moment he heard it; he hadn't expected that the little pirate he wanted to kill was the son of such a big shot.
…
"At this point, it is hardly surprising."
Mihawk made a short comment expressing his lack of surprise at anything related to Luffy.
…
Hancock put her hand on her cheek in a tender gesture while thinking:
(You could be the son of demons for all I care I still…)
…
As for Bartholomew Kuma, he remained silent without any notable reaction.
…
"I see… so that's how he got Ivankov on his side!! It makes sense now!"
Doflamingo laughed wickedly after finally unraveling this confusion.
…
"Dragon's son… I see…"
Even Jimbei was surprised after hearing that.
…
"This explains what happened at Loguetown…"
Smoker recalled that fateful day when Dragon stood like a ghost behind him, preventing him from capturing the Straw Hat.
…
"Calling HQ… Calling HQ!!"
"Reporting from the Sabaody Archipelago!!"
Journalists in Sabaody rushed to get a scoop on this massive news.
"Dragon… As in the Dragon"
"We have huge news!!! The whole world has to hear this!!"
…
"I care not… there is no longer any need to hide it."
"Luffy has already gained such power and infamy that such labels may as well mean nothing…!!"
Garp completely ignored the matter, appearing truly unconcerned about the horrifying truth revealed about his grandson.
…
"HAAAHHHH!!!"
Meanwhile, Luffy was battling the giant who had attacked him, dodging his massive blows repeatedly.
"Gomu Gomu~"
Luffy's huge hand in Gear Third form began spinning at a frightening speed.
"Gigant Rifle!!!"
The giant felt dizzy as he was struck by a giant fist the size of his body, sending him flying and crashing into Marineford's walls.
"YEEEEAHHHH~"
The pirates cheered loudly for Luffy.
…
"A~~~CE~~~~!!!"
"I DON'T CARE WHAT YOU SAY!!! I'M GOING TO SAVE YOU EVEN IF IT KILLS ME!!!"
"Marco… Don't you dare let that boy die…"
Whitebeard ordered with a smile.
"Roger that." Marco nodded.
•———•———•———•———•
Luffy's scream silenced the crowd of readers; they had just discovered how determined Luffy truly was to save Ace, even if it meant his death!
Seeing Ace freeze upon hearing that, and witnessing Whitebeard's smile as he openly protected Luffy, made the readers erupt in unprecedented excitement!
…
In the kingdom of Roshwan, the shock and excitement could be heard from most readers at that moment.
Among the readers was a young man wearing glasses and a hat with the number three on it—yes, it was the younger version of Mister 3 Galdino once again.
Galdino adjusted his glasses and focused on the face of Mister 3, who stood behind Buggy. "Is Buggy better than me? Why is he always showcased before me... That's not fair!"
His voice was so loud that it caught attention once again, almost as if Galdino had completely forgotten the last time he drew attention to himself, almost getting abducted by World Government agents had it not been for a Store Goddess intervention.
…
"Why is my counterpart so shocked like this? Does Dragon really have this much fame in the manga world?"
Not far from Roshwan, on Baterilla Island, Buggy adjusted his posture and turned his back in surprise after hearing his counterpart's exaggerated reaction upon learning about Dragon and the truth that he was Luffy's biological father.
"Haha~ You can imagine the impact of a man who desires revolution against the World Government... This is worse than what Roger did."
Rayleigh laughed at Buggy's naivety before explaining to him why Dragon had such an impact.
"The Revolutionary Army has already appeared in the world now, and they have become extremely powerful by adding Garp to their ranks, haven't they? Why does the World Government still ignore them?"
Shanks asked curiously.
"That's because they have enough headaches already; in this world, there are things scarier than the Pirate King and the Revolutionary Leader... There's the Sky Sword." said Rayleigh.
Hearing that, Shakky smiled silently.
…
"These cowards are hiding again, hahaha..."
"Garp's training for them went down the drain! Hahahaha!!!"
"You're right, hahahaha!!"
In the East Blue, specifically in the Yotsuba Sea region on Rellia Island, both Kony and Morgan laughed heartily at their cowardly sons while exchanging proud looks.
…
In the Central Prison on Hunters Island:
Moria remained calm this time to avoid getting kicked again by the Golden Lion.
'Damn you, Jimbei! Damn you, Straw Hat! Damn you, Dragon!'
"Oh, and lest I forget... Damn you, Shiki- ah..."
Moria forgot to silently contemplate the last of his thoughts, blurting it out loud, wanting to rectify the situation but found the Golden Lion's leg already embracing his face again.
Boom! He was sent kissing the wall once more.
…
Ohara:
Mihawk looked at his manga counterpart with interest. "It seems my counterpart is no longer surprised about Straw Hat."
"Hawkeye was the one who saw Luffy at the beginning of his journey and knew about his dream to become Pirate King, so he knows more about him than anyone present, which is why it's hard for him to be surprised now."
"Especially since someone like Luffy is unlikely to have a small background," added Issho with a smile.
"You're right..."
…
"What's she thinking, this foolish girl...!!"
Hancock blushed as she read her manga counterpart's thoughts after learning who Luffy's father was.
Seeing this reaction left Rob speechless.
'Don't tell me it's already... But this child boy even been born yet! Damn it!"
"Hahaha!" Seeing Rob's dismal expression, Olivia couldn't keep a straight face and burst out laughing.
"Hahahaha!!"
After that, Bell-mère, Glora, Otohime, Sora, and Toki also laughed without caring about Rob's dejected expressions.
It was amusing to see Rob with the low spirit facing the reality that one of his daughters' hearts had already been stolen.
And the thief was a manga character!
