    The navy ship finally left Dressrosa, while Garp stood behind it, wiping his eyes with a handkerchief.

    "My great-grandchildren... my beautiful great-grandchildren... How can Grandpa leave the future of the navy like this?!" He cried alone while his crew looked lost.

    "Can you stop being such a crybaby?!" Sengoku appeared beside him, slapping him on the head.

    "How can I not cry...?!" Garp shouted at him. "And you, you bastard... You better not go after them like you did with Roger''s son, otherwise, you''ll face the fist of a very angry great-grandfather!" Garp exclaimed angrily at Sengoku.

    "I''m no longer the fleet admiral, you damn fool!" Sengoku complained with a grimace before getting serious with Garp. "Even so, if they became criminals when they grow up, I would certainly execute them," Sengoku said with a serious tone.

    "What did you say, you bastard?!" Garp began releasing his Conqueror''s Haki.

    "First, listen to me, you damn fool!" Sengoku exclaimed. "Do you think the government is going to let them grow up? Their father is destroying all the balance in the world! There will be all kinds of operations to make sure your great-grandchildren don''t live on to pass your grandson''s bloodline to other generations, especially given your family''s history. When the news of Monkey D. Luffy having children with other figures predominantly known for their strength shocks the world, the World Government will act." Sengoku stated the obvious while Garp, despite being furious, understood this reasoning very well.

    "Those bastards... I won''t let that happen, Sengoku... They are just children. Even if I become a fugitive from the government, I won''t allow it! I swear!" Garp said each word through clenched teeth.

    "That''s what I feared. I don''t know if this could be a good or a bad thing, but it''s no longer in my hands. Anyway, your grandson just took a marine admiral hostage; let''s just hope the government finds sacrificing Fujitora more advantageous than trying to eliminate your great-grandchildren... otherwise, they won''t be able to do anything," Sengoku replied.

    "Whatever... I''m going to the cabin; I''m in a bad mood now," Garp muttered as he began to move through the ship, heading inside.

    "Vice-Admiral Garp..." Helmeppo murmured, watching Garp close the door.

    Coby stood next to him, also watching, while his gaze turned back to Dressrosa and all the other islands around the kingdom, slowly drifting away as the ship continued sailing. He couldn''t help but think about how strong Luffy had become; he was a step beyond an admiral. After all, he could see the look of fear in Kizaru''s eyes and even his caution with the other crew members. It was no wonder Luffy had beaten Green Bull and captured two other figures like Sengoku and Fujitora.

    ''Even if I achieve my dream of becoming an admiral... can I stop him?'' This was the question in Coby''s mind as he stared at the island.

    The memory of almost two years ago, when he still worked for Alvida while she was overweight, doing all kinds of tasks nobody else wanted and without a choice, obeying her demands.

    Until Luffy showed up and managed to defeat Alvida and her entire crew in a unique way. In the end, Coby left the ship with Luffy, and they went to Shelltown. Thinking about this, Coby couldn''t help but smile.

    Flashback

    "Ouch! Why did you hit me?!" A young pink-haired boy murmured, looking at the man in front of him with fear, trembling as he thought this would be his end with this terrible and ruthless pirate. After all, this was Coby''s first impression of Luffy.

    "Because you talk too much! And I feel like doing it since you cry like a coward every time you open your mouth," Luffy said directly.

    "Coward...??" Coby couldn''t help but murmur as he thought about his life since he left to fish and was captured by Alvida two years ago. "I guess you''re right. In the end, I''m just a weakling at the mercy of others'' wills..." Coby lamented, while Luffy sighed seeing this.

    "Coby, tell me, do you have a dream?" Luffy asked.

    "I have one... But I don''t know if I''m worthy..." he said without much confidence.

    "You''re already starting off wrong," Luffy said, gaining a curious look from Koby, then continued, "You don''t have faith in your dream, so you''ll never achieve it," Luffy concluded simply.

    "Faith in my... achieving it?" Koby murmured as they were in the middle of the ocean, now without any ships in sight.

    "Look, Koby, if Alvida''s dream is to be the most beautiful woman in East Blue, then it''ll happen if she has unwavering faith in it! You might be surprised by her the next time you see her," Luffy spoke seriously, and before Koby could say something like ''that''s impossible,'' he continued,

    Luffy arranged another banquet, announcing that he would begin meeting the guests who had arrived in Dressrosa exclusively to speak with him. Meanwhile, he placed the animals captured on Mihawk''s island in a laboratory for his scientists to start working on them, turning them into the most powerful living weapon among the islands.

    Luffy didn''t attend the banquet; instead, he had to attend to one girl at a time, as he had to make up for his absence. Baccarat, Viola, Lola, and all the wives who wanted his attention.

    By the end of the banquet, he appeared to celebrate with his companions in the middle of the city, while he was with Uta and Mikita, both pregnant, the mothers of his children, and his five children.

    The next day, he finally had to start executing his pre-war plans, strengthening his position in the New World, increasing his fleet, reinforcing his projects, and conducting training for all members who would participate in the battle in Wano.

    Luffy stayed up until dawn before heading to his room, and even though Black Pearl was already on the island, it wouldn''t fit all the women who would sleep with him that night, so the castle was his choice.

    When the sun rose the next day, shocking news began circulating worldwide, with Luffy once again being a central point, whether for his agreement with the World Government or for his children being mentioned for the first time.

    Raccoon Here:

    I decided to work on Coby after all, since the navy needs development or at least the future Sword. I believe that, naturally, Coby will possess the Conqueror''s Haki, so I didn''t find it bad to already awaken it here. Coby needs to become even stronger than what has been shown.
