One Piece: My Crew is from Other World-Chapter 103: Soul Search, Raftel’s Information!

Chapter 103: Soul Search, Raftel's Information!

After hearing Ryuunosuke's words, everyone stood up and turned their attention to Whitebeard.

Whitebeard looked back at Ryuunosuke and said firmly, "From now on, the business of the Dragon Hunter Pirates is the business of the Whitebeard Pirates."

Then, as if remembering something, he turned to a man nearby.

"By the way," Whitebeard asked, pointing at Dave with a puzzled expression, "why'd you capture this guy?"

Given the Dragon Hunter Pirates' usual ruthlessness—and the way they'd fought just now—it was surprising Dave was still alive.

Ryuunosuke chuckled. "He's just a tool. I want to know why a Celestial Dragon is targeting me."

"Celestial Dragon!?" someone exclaimed.

"What do you mean targeted by a Celestial Dragon?"

"Those bastards should've been dealt with ages ago."

"Hell, let's just storm Mary Geoise!"

...

The room exploded with chaotic suggestions, each more outrageous than the last.

One even shouted, "Let's ride on the Five Elders head and take a dump!"

It was clear—these guys weren't known for their subtlety.

Whitebeard raised a hand to quiet the room. "If they're really with the Celestial Dragons, getting intel won't be easy."

He let the silence hang for a beat before continuing.

"Mary Geoise isn't some place you just stroll into. If it were that easy, the Celestial Dragons wouldn't still be ruling the world."

Ryuunosuke nodded. "Relax. I've got my own way. I don't need him to talk."

He turned and shouted, "Jigokudo!"

A moment later, Xiang Jing sprinted over from the deck of the Extremely Evil Warship and dropped to one knee.

"Captain!"

Ryuunosuke pointed at Dave. "I want everything he knows."

Jigokudo immediately approached Dave.

"You with the Dragon Hunter Pirates?" Dave snarled. "Kill me if you dare! I serve the Celestial Dragons. If you even think—"

Smack!

Jigokudo's hand lashed out, cutting him off mid-sentence. A crack rang out as Dave staggered from the blow.

The energy of Hell began to flow.

"Hell Road: Judgment."

"Hell Road: Soul Search."

Without hesitation, Jigokudo summoned the King of Hell Statue. Placing one massive hand over Dave's head, Jigokudo extracted a glowing, translucent soul from his body.

The King of Hell Statue opened its mouth, and Jigokudo tossed the soul into its jaws.

Moments later, all of Dave's memories and knowledge flowed into Jigokudo mind.

"Captain," Jigokudo reported, "he's the captain of Valrona Saint's personal pirate crew. All the enemies we fought earlier had been transformed by Vegapunk's bloodline factor into special combat units."

"We still don't know the exact method of transformation, but their mission was to capture the Dragon Hunter Pirates."

"As for Dave, he wanted to kill Whitebeard and become one of the new Four Emperors. He believed that by doing so, he'd gain the Celestial Dragons' trust and receive their full support."

Jigokudo gave a short bow before returning to the ship.

Ryuunosuke stood quietly, processing everything.

Valrona Saint. Among the Celestial Dragons, males were titled Saints, females Palaces.

So, Valrona was a male Celestial Dragon. And judging from when they departed from the Sabaody Archipelago, this Valrona Saint might still be there.

Unfortunately, that was all the useful information they had.

It sounded like a lot—but in practice, it wasn't much to go on.

Suddenly—

Thud!

Whitebeard's huge hand clapped Ryuunosuke's back.

"Enough thinking! The banquet's ready. Come have a drink with me!"

With that, Whitebeard downed a bottle of Life Essence.

A glowing aura of life burst forth, engulfing his towering body. Despite the intensity, Whitebeard absorbed it effortlessly—his aging body still holding strong under its power.

Ryuunosuke smiled and stood up.

"Uncle Whitebeard, do you know anything about Raftel? Can you tell me what kind of place it is?"

He couldn't hide his anticipation. Ever since Erwin mentioned it, Ryuunosuke had been eager to uncover the mystery of Raftel.

If the Dragon Hunter Pirates were the ones to find it, their name would be etched into history.

Sure, some powerful crews already knew of them—but compared to the Pirate King?

It wasn't even close.

"Raftel, huh?" Whitebeard murmured, stroking his beard.

"Roger told me a few things back in the day."

He paused, then added, "The One Piece—yeah, it's real. But Roger didn't create those treasures."

"They were already on Raftel, long before he got there."

Ryuunosuke frowned. "The treasure was already there?"

Whitebeard chuckled. "In the end, it's not that important."

"To me, my family matters more than any treasure."

Then, with a nostalgic sigh, he recounted Roger's words.

There was no map. No eternal pose.

But there was one important clue—

Raftel wasn't in the Grand Line or the New World.

Ryuunosuke was stunned. "What? But all the clues Roger left... the Road Poneglyphs... they're all in the Grand Line and the New World!"

"So we thought," Whitebeard said, "but those clues may just be to send pirates searching across the seas. The real Raftel is hidden."

"Even the World Government hasn't found it after all these years."

That revelation left Ryuunosuke deep in thought.

But soon, the atmosphere changed.

The banquet began.

Yahiko didn't attend. He and Jigokudo had already left—after all, the identity of the Third Division had to remain secret. This kind of event wasn't the right place for them.

The celebration lasted three days.

Afterward, the Whitebeard Pirates and the Dragon Hunter Pirates went their separate ways.

Of course, Ace remained with Ryuunosuke.

The official reason was to find Blackbeard.

But everyone knew the truth.

Ace wanted to be by Ryuunosuke's side.

And the blue-white flames burning from his body... said more than words ever could.

"Pops," Marco said quietly as he walked up beside Whitebeard, "this Dragon Hunter Pirate..."

Whitebeard smiled with pride in his eyes.

"He's the real deal."

"One day... he'll stand at the top of the world."

Looking at the horizon, Whitebeard knew deep down:

His era was ending.

And a new one was just beginning.
