Chapter 812 Each of Their Dreams. Luffy's Mysterious Dream…?

Chapter 812 Each of Their Dreams. Luffy's Mysterious Dream...?

_________________

Ace's smile reflected in Roger's eyes, full of longing, as he heard Sabo's dream at that moment.

Immediately afterward, it was Ace's turn to speak about his own dream.

...

..

("I'm going to become a pirate, defeat every last person who stands in my way... And earn the kind of glory that dreams are made of! Only then will my life have meaning!")

("I don't care if the whole world refuses to accept me... They can hate me all they want! I'll become a great pirate and prove I'm better than all of them!")

("I won't run from anyone! I'll never lose! I don't care if they're terrified of me! I'm going to make sure the whole world knows my name!")

...

..

With each word Ace spoke, anticipation, joy, sorrow, and despair filled Roger's heart.

"I see... You've already fulfilled your dream, haven't you, my son?"

Roger took a big sip of sake this time, gazing into Ace's true dream, which didn't mention wanting to become the Pirate King or anything of the sort.

"You wanted to be a pirate, and you became a great one."

"You wanted to defeat every opponent who stood before you, and you did, until your very last breath."

"You sought to earn the glory you dreamed of, and you've done just that."

"The world rejected you, and they surely hated you, but you didn't care, and you became a great pirate, proving your worth to exist in this world despite them."

"You never wanted to run away from anyone... and you never did, though I wish you had my little boy..."

At last, the tears that had been welling up for so long spilled from Roger's eyes, like a dam that had finally broken.

For the first time, the crew of Roger witnessed their captain cry. And not just a tear, but an outpouring of grief.

Roger was the Pirate King! The King of all pirates in the world. But in that moment, he was just a father mourning his son's soul.

Seeing this, Shanks' heart ached, and even Buggy looked pained. Rayleigh and Gaban both sighed deeply, feeling the sorrow from the depths of their hearts.

"I thought your dream would be much bigger than this... But it turns out you didn't want to steal your brother's dream, did you? You really were a kind-hearted child."

Roger wiped his tears as he gazed at Ace's smiling face in the manga.

It seemed he had finally learned how to truly be a father.

"Shishishi...!! All right... Well, then..."

Now that both Sabo and Ace had shared their dreams before the vast ocean, Luffy couldn't just stand idly by.

He stepped forward, almost as if he were embracing the sea.

"I'M GONNA...!!!"

Luffy shouted his bizarre, unusual dream at the top of his lungs. This time, he revealed his true dream, rather than becoming Pirate King, which turned out to be just the stepping stone toward fulfilling his actual ambition.

"Huh??!"

As expected, Luffy's words left Sabo and Ace with shocked expressions.

"Ahahahaha!" Luffy laughed.

"Was I a bad father, Queen...?"

On Urura Island, Kaido was heavily drunk, tears streaming from his eyes as he asked this question.

"You're asking a bad parent, Kaido-san... I also abandoned my child at one point in my life..."

"Tsk... I wasn't a bad father! I wanted to make Yamato strong! She wouldn't be strong if she didn't live a hard life!"

"What made me strong, huh!? Do you think it's because my race has tough bodies? Rubbish!"

"What made me strong was the hardship I went through! My parents abandoned me too! The hard life I lived shaped my strength! But I didn't abandon her! I was nurturing her from afar!"

"Uweeeh! I miss my Yamato... Will Rob give her back to me if I ask?"

Kaido didn't know why, but Sabo's story about his parents had stirred something in him... something that had been buried deep in his heart for a long time.

"Young Lady Yamato has officially become the daughter of the Sky Sword in a trade deal between you and him, Kaido-san... Getting her back from him is only a dream."

This time, King spoke.
