The Dream Crew returned to their villa.
When Robin saw Boa Hancock, her face froze for a mont. *Why is this troubleso woman here now?*
She glanced at Nami.
Nami shrugged helplessly, making it clear that she really couldn't stop her.
Luckily, she had been smart enough to make an agreent with Hancock in advance.
Boa Hancock remained calm. She knew it would be hard to fit into this group, but it didn't matter—she understood what she brought to the table.
Ignoring everyone's reactions, she simply sat down on the side.
"Robin! Reina! We're back!" Leah burst in excitedly.
"You're finally back." Seeing her crewmates return safely, Robin finally felt relieved.
Reina didn't fully understand the situation, but she was happy to see her brother and sisters return. However... why was there suddenly a beautiful new big sister here?
She looked at Boa Hancock, her long rabbit ears twitching slightly.
"Don't worry, Robin. We just went to watch an incredible battle. And in Marine Headquarters, a place like that... for soone like , who specializes in large-scale attacks, Sengoku wouldn't dare to make a move against us," Ryuen said casually.
"That may be true, but when I saw Sengoku about to act during the broadcast, Reina and I were really worried," Robin admitted, still feeling uneasy.
"Heh..."
"He didn't dare to make a move because he knew I actually *would*," Ryuen said with a cold smirk.
"But Ryuen, what about Kuma? Is Vegapunk really the only way to restore his mind?" Nami asked with a frown.
"Yeah. If we want to bring Kuma back, we have to find Vegapunk and get him to restore Kuma's consciousness. Otherwise, we'll just be traveling around with a lifeless body," Ryuen replied with a nod.
"The seas are in complete chaos now. If Roger's death started the Great Pirate Era, then Whitebeard's death has made it even more out of control," Robin said, a trace of worry in her eyes.
"That has nothing to do with us. Let them fight it out. Whitebeard's final words will only provoke the World Governnt even more," Ryuen said indifferently, as if none of this concerned him.
"I'll get the Dream Ship coated tomorrow," Hog volunteered.
"Sounds good. We've stayed in Sabaody Archipelago long enough. Camie, you'll be going ho soon. Excited?" Ryuen turned to Camie, who had been silent.
"Yes, yes! Thank you so much!" Camie's voice trembled with emotion, her eyes full of gratitude.
~~~~~~
While the Dream Crew was discussing their journey to Fishman Island, far across the sea, the three ASL brothers were also about to go their separate ways.
One was the chief of staff of the Revolutionary Army, one was a division commander of the Whitebeard Pirates, and the other was the captain of his own pirate crew.
With such different paths, staying together was never an option.
"Ace, take care. And don't overthink things—Whitebeard wants you all to live on," Sabo said, patting Ace on the shoulder.
"I got it, Sabo. Luffy... see you guys," Ace said with a tired smile.
"Ace, I'll be in the New World soon. Wait for !" Luffy promised, his expression serious and determined.
Ace nodded firmly.
Then, he left Paradise with the Whitebeard Pirates and their allied fleets, with the Red-Haired Pirates choosing to travel alongside them.
After watching Ace and his crew leave, Ivankov's group also decided to depart.
As for the others—like the Supernovas who had escaped, along with Crocodile, Jinbe, and the rest—they had already left.
But Sabo went back to Sabaody Archipelago with the Straw Hat Crew instead of leaving with Ivankov.
His reason was simple—he needed to figure out what happened to Kuma. And right now, Kuma was in the hands of the Dream Crew.
"Luffy, after everything that's happened, I'm sure you now understand the importance of Haki. I suggest you learn it first before heading to the New World," Rayleigh said, looking at Luffy before glancing at the rest of the Straw Hat Crew.
"Haki, huh..." Luffy murmured, a spark of determination in his eyes.
"No need, Rayleigh. I'll master Haki sooner or later. Everyone else is heading to the New World—I can't fall behind!" Luffy said with firm resolve.
And by "everyone else," he was, of course, referring to his fellow Supernovas—Kid, Law, and the others.
Luffy's words fired up the Straw Hat Crew. Their eyes shone with excitent and confidence for the future.
They knew they weren't any weaker than the others. They believed they could carve out their own legend in the New World.
Zoro remained calm, as if he was already used to this.
He had only one goal in his heart—to beco the world's greatest swordsman. No matter what obstacles he faced, he would never back down.
Kuro, Usopp, Sanji, Chopper, Franky, and Brook all smiled with confidence. They believed that as long as they worked together, they could achieve their dreams.
Rayleigh looked at the energetic and determined Straw Hat Pirates, feeling a sense of satisfaction.
He saw in Luffy the sa courage and determination to move forward that reminded him of his old friend, Roger.
"I understand. Then go for it, young ones," Rayleigh said with a smile, his eyes filled with encouragent.
With Rayleigh's words, the Straw Hat Pirates continued toward Sabaody Archipelago, ready to sail into the unknown New World and start a new adventure.
~~~~~~~
By the ti the Straw Hat Pirates' ship docked at Sabaody Archipelago, it was already nightti. After gathering information about the Dream Exploration Team's location, Sabo headed straight to their villa.
"Ryuen, thank you for helping with Ace's situation!" Sabo said seriously.
This ti, he truly felt grateful to Ryuen. If Ryuen hadn't told Shakky that he was part of the Revolutionary Army, Luffy wouldn't have been able to contact him.
At that ti, not only would he have failed to rember Ace and Luffy, but he would have also missed the chance to join the mission to save Ace.
That's why he was so thankful to Ryuen.
"It was nothing. But I'm guessing you also ca because of Kuma, right? He has completely lost consciousness now. If you want to restore his mind, the best option is to find Vegapunk and get him to undo the process," Ryuen said honestly.
"As expected..."
"So Kuma has really been living without freedom all these years..." Sabo muttered in a low voice.
"Hmmm..."
"Yeah, it's been rough for him," Ryuen agreed.
"Once again, thank you, Ryuen. Kuma is an important mber of the Revolutionary Army. We really appreciate you lending him a hand!" Sabo said gratefully.
After getting the information he needed, Sabo left the Dream Team's villa.
