Sabaody Archipelago Auction House.

The auction house was a complete mess. Following the Celestial Dragon attack, all the customers who had attended the auction had long since fled. The venue was now filled only with guards sprawled across the floor, the Celestial Dragon Charlos and his family, this generation's Supernovas—the Straw Hat Pirates, Eustass Kid's group, Trafalgar Law—and an old man with glasses accompanied by a hulking Giant Tribe member.

Rayleigh himself did not seem particularly bothered. He adjusted his glasses, sensed through Observation Haki that the Marines had already surrounded the area outside, and spoke to the youngsters present.

"Everyone, this old man will be taking the back door and leaving first. As for those people out front, I'll leave them to you young ones. Good luck!"

With that, Rayleigh left through the rear of the auction house without looking back. Only as he turned did his gaze linger briefly on Straw Hat Kid, especially on that straw hat.

The remaining Supernovas all watched him go. He was a living legend, and everyone present was deeply shaken.

"Let's go!"

After watching Rayleigh leave, the Kid Pirates were the first to head for the auction house entrance.

They were followed by the Surgeon of Death, Trafalgar Law, and the Straw Hat Pirates, creating that iconic scene: the three captains of the new era joining forces against the enemy, crushing the Marines surrounding them before going their separate ways.

The other Supernovas, meanwhile, were fleeing frantically. Several Shichibukai, Bartholomew Kuma, had appeared on the island at some unknown point and were attacking them.
