One Piece: With Sign-in System Chapter 228: Return to Dressrosa; Rebecca’s Excitement

Five days later.

Following the guidance of the Vivre Card, Ron and his crew arrived at an unexpected location—

Dressrosa.

Each mber of the group wore a fox mask, collected by Ron from various nations, as they strolled through the bustling streets of the city.

"This is Dressrosa, the so-called 'Land of Love and Passion'?"

Nami was stunned by the vibrant and lively atmosphere surrounding her.

After Ron and Zephyr had destroyed the Donquixote Family, King Riku had reclaid his throne. In just two years, he had managed to heal the wounds that had plagued this nation for over a decade. With the royal family and citizens united in their efforts, Dressrosa had beco more prosperous and harmonious than ever. A renewed sense of confidence was visible on the faces of the people.

Conis suddenly gasped, covering her mouth in shock as she pointed toward the center of the square.

"T-That... isn't that a statue of Captain?!"

The crew turned their heads in unison.

Standing before them was a towering stone monunt, several dozen ters high. The sculpture depicted a young man with his eyes closed, a long sword in hand.

It was an exact replica of Ron from two years ago.

Right beside it stood another grand statue—an elderly man, chiseled with unwavering determination.

"Master's Statue!"

Enzo's eyes glead with excitent.

"Captain, you're so amazing!"

Carrot clung to Ron's arm, rubbing her cheek against it affectionately, occasionally even playfully nibbling at him.

"It must be because you killed Doflamingo and brought down the Donquixote Family," Robin mused, tapping her chin. "To this nation, both you and the forr Admiral Zephyr are nothing short of saviors."

Ron scratched his cheek, feeling slightly embarrassed. "Saviors? That's a bit of an exaggeration..."

Just then—

A couple walked past them, engaged in a lively discussion.

"Did you hear? Traveler Ron has declared war against the World Governnt! He said he's going to eradicate all the Celestial Dragons!"

"For real? That's incredible! He is amazing!"

"Absolutely!"

Nami and Bonney exchanged startled glances.

As they continued through the city, they heard more and more people discussing Ron's alliance with Kaido and their impending war against the World Governnt.

The most shocking part?

Almost everyone was speaking in his favor.

Drunken n in taverns openly praised the Traveler, cheering and toasting to the 'Demon King.' Even the crowd joined in, their voices filled with admiration.

From patrolling guards to rchants in their stalls, from couples wandering the streets to children playing by the roadside—

The entire kingdom, from top to bottom, seed to revere the legendary Traveler, a figure they had never even t in person.

It was unimaginable—especially in a world ruled by the World Governnt.

"Looks like the Captain has an unbelievably high reputation in this country," Conis said, clasping her hands behind her back, her mood uplifted by the discovery.

Robin nodded. "Indeed."

Nami smirked mischievously as she glanced at Ron. "What do you think would happen if we told them their revered Traveler is standing right here?"

Bonney folded her arms, grinning. "No doubt, absolute chaos."

Ron sighed helplessly. "We're only here to find Zephyr, so let's try not to cause too much trouble, okay?"

Hearing his resigned tone, the girls burst into laughter.

Inside the royal palace of Dressrosa—

Tap. Tap. Tap.

The sharp sound of hurried footsteps echoed across the stone floor of the grand hall.

The heavy wooden doors to a chamber swung open.

"Grandfather!"

King Riku turned his head, his gentle gaze falling on the young woman rushing toward him. Dressed in a flowing pale-yellow gown, her long pink hair swayed as she lifted the hem of her dress, her expression filled with urgency.

"Rebecca? What's the matter?"

Rebecca stopped before him, her chest rising and falling with excitent.

"Grandfather, is it true? Is the Traveler here?"

Her voice was filled with anticipation.

King Riku smiled warmly and nodded. "It's true. Kyros has already gone to et him. Do you want to go as well?"

Rebecca's eyes lit up with excitent.

"Of course!"

By the ti she arrived at Green Bit, the secluded island north of Dressrosa, her heart was pounding.

From a distance, she could already see a tall, lean figure standing beside Zephyr and Kyros.

The mont she laid eyes on him, that silhouette overlapped perfectly with the image in her mory—the black-clad young man who had changed the fate of her holand.

A surge of emotion welled up inside her.

Just as she instinctively moved forward—

A firm hand blocked her path.

"Princess, I'm sorry. You can't go any closer."

Rebecca looked up, startled, to see Binz, his Justice coat billowing slightly in the wind.

"Binz..."

She gave him a pleading look, her large eyes filled with anticipation.

Binz stiffened and quickly looked away, stubbornly crossing his arms. "I-It's really not possible! Master Zephyr and Ron are discussing sothing incredibly important right now."

Rebecca's excitent dimd slightly, disappointnt flickering across her face.

But before she could protest—

A gentle hand rested on her shoulder.

Startled, she turned around.

Her eyes widened in delight.

"Ain!"

Standing before her, wearing the Neo Marine Coat, was Ain—her sea-blue curls cascading over her shoulders, a pistol and a sword strapped elegantly at her waist.

Ain smiled.

"Zephyr-sensei, Ron, and Kyros really are discussing a crucial matter right now. This isn't the ti to disturb them. Co, I'll introduce you to soone you've always wanted to et."

Rebecca blinked in confusion.

"Soone I've wanted to et?"

Ain chuckled.

"Haven't you always wanted to et the Calamity from the Skies?"

At just 14 years old, Rebecca's expression instantly shifted.

Her eyes went wide with astonishnt—

And then, pure excitent.

...

anwhile, on Ron's Side—

"Declaring war against the World Governnt..."

Zephyr's deep voice carried weight as he looked Ron straight in the eye.

"That's no small matter, kid. Have you really thought this through?"

The forr admiral's expression was grim.

"The World Governnt holds dominion over the seas. It controls the laws of over 170 allied nations. If this isn't handled properly, the entire world will be plunged into chaos."

His eyes narrowed.

"Before I even consider helping you, I need to understand—what exactly is your plan?"

Sitting in a wheelchair beside him, Kyros remained silent, his sharp gaze locked onto Ron.

The savior of Dressrosa—

Now bearing the title of Demon King—

Was about to wage war that would shake the world to its very core.
