One Piece: My Crew is from Other World-Chapter 33: Arriving at Loguetown

According to the schedule they had agreed on earlier, Roelki should have finished purchasing supplies by now.

Of course, Smoker had already been tossed back to the Navy ship by Najenda.

Carrying a Navy officer like that was a liability—it would only attract trouble.

Lu Yu had no plans to kill any of the Navy, either. If they started down that road, there'd be no turning back—the Navy would see them as full-blown enemies.

And that was something he wanted to avoid for now.

Meanwhile, back on the Navy ship, Gion watched as Lu Yu's terrifying warship finally disappeared from view. Her strength gave out, and she collapsed onto the deck.

"Vice Admiral Gion!"

"Are you alright?!"

"Were you injured in the fight?!"

A group of officers quickly surrounded her, their faces filled with worry.

"I'm fine," she said weakly. "Return to Logue Town."

She stood up with effort, issued her command, and walked alone back to her quarters.

[You're just standing behind the biggest power, calling it justice...

You turn a blind eye to the crimes of the nobles. Talk about justice to civilians, and call it crime when pirates do the same things?]

Lu Yu's words echoed in Gion's mind like a curse.

Her belief in justice—shaped since childhood under the guidance of Vice Admiral Tsuru—had begun to crack. She had always known about the ugly side of the world. She'd seen glimpses. But this time... she felt it.

The justice they fought for had holes—gaping flaws that couldn't be fixed.

The sins of the World Government... the corruption of the Celestial Dragons...

The Navy had no jurisdiction over any of it.

So, what was justice?

Was it the justice of the nobles? The privileged?

Or was it the justice of the common people, those who suffered under the very same laws?

The word "Justice" emblazoned on the back of her cloak now felt like a cruel joke—a mockery of everything she believed in.

"Purururu "

Her Den Den Mushi rang.

"...Sister Tsuru?"

Gion took a deep breath, steadying her emotions before answering the call.

"Gion, were you defeated?" came Tsuru's voice, calm but concerned.

"...Yes."

"There was no way I could've won. The Dragon Hunter Pirates... they're incredibly strong."

Gion didn't try to sugarcoat it.

A loss was a loss.

Even though Lu Yu had spared her, the truth was undeniable—she had been outmatched.

"...Did something else happen?"

Tsuru immediately picked up on the strange tone in Gion's voice.

She knew Gion well. Despite her usual bluntness, Gion was proud—unyielding. Raised under Tsuru's care, she had a strong spirit and a clear sense of right and wrong.

But now, she sounded... shaken.

The Gion she knew wouldn't just admit defeat so easily. Something must've happened out there—something more than just a lost battle.

Meanwhile, on the other side...

Lu Yu and his crew had finally arrived at Loguetown.

The starting point of dreams—the place where the Pirate King, Gol D. Roger, had been executed.

To any pirate with ambition, this town was legendary. A place to visit. A place to reflect.

"Pirate King Roger was executed here?" Najenda asked, staring at the town with wide eyes. "The guy who found the One Piece and kicked off the whole damn Age of Pirates?"

She looked both impressed and curious.

"Well, if we're gonna be a real force, maybe we should start recruiting some crew members," Chrollo said casually, scanning the streets. "My second squad's just me right now."

"Yeah, you've got a point," Najenda added. "If we want to form a super crew, it can't just be the main combat team."

"We also need territory," she continued, tapping her chin in thought. "We can't just float around forever. Everyone from the Four Emperors to the Warlords has land they operate from."

Kuina nodded. "Exactly. Having a base may make us a target... but it's necessary."

"Ababa ababa..."

"Ababa ababa..."

Akame and Mario were off to the side, mumbling nonsense—they clearly had no clue what to contribute to this kind of discussion.

Lu Yu chuckled. "Alright, let's hold off on the territory thing for now. Ideally, we'll get two bases—one in the Grand Line, one in the New World."

"As for recruiting squad members, that's up to you guys," he continued, shrugging. "You're the captains of your squads. Pick your people."

He wasn't about to micromanage—this wasn't that kind of crew. Just like Whitebeard left it to his captains, Lu Yu trusted them to build their own teams.

"Sounds good to me," Chrollo said. "This town's the last stop before pirates enter the Grand Line. Should be a ton of strong guys hanging around."

Without another word, he vanished into the crowd.

Najenda waved and followed suit—time to find potential recruits for her squad.

Mario also walked off, asking Lu Yu for a bit of cash to buy tools and repair gear.

In the end, only Lu Yu, Akame, and Kuina were left.

"Well, let's go check out the execution platform," Lu Yu said, stretching lazily. "Then we'll grab a bite and wait for the others."

Being the captain had its perks—delegation was a beautiful thing.

They made their way through the streets until they reached the tall execution platform towering above Logue Town.

"This is where Roger died," Lu Yu said, glancing up. "The end of one Pirate King..."

"...And the start of something much bigger."

The energy of the place was palpable. A strange atmosphere hung in the air—part reverence, part excitement, part dread.

As Lu Yu stood there, taking it all in, a sudden sensation brushed past him.

He narrowed his eyes.

Someone was watching.

He reached out with his Observation Haki and instantly locked on to a small, unassuming shop just across the square.

An old man sat inside, seemingly harmless...

But that strange pressure he'd just felt—it came from him.

Lu Yu's eyes sharpened.

'There's someone powerful hidden in there...'
