The group chatted and laughed as they headed outside...
On the deck.
"I see it! I finally see it! That's Loguetown! Hahaha..."
"The Pirate King's hometown! Here I come..."
"Faster, faster! Sail straight into the Grand Line!"
"Are you kidding? We finally made it to Loguetown. Of course we're going ashore! What's the rush?"
"Enough talk! Come on, jump up and dance, all of you! Hahaha!"
Hearing the crew cheering and shouting below, Burgess couldn't help roaring along with them.
"We've finally reached the last stop! Wehahaha!"
Doc Q leaned back in his chair and said with a strange smile, "Since we're heading into the Grand Line, why not make a scene?"
"We could just poison everyone in Loguetown. Hehe."
Gin worked on his Haki, pumping his fists with a cool expression. "Once we land, I'm going to look around and pay my respects to Pirate King Roger's hometown."
Luo looked at Hawkins, as aloof as ever. "Let's go to the Execution Platform later and see where Roger died."
"Roger ushered in the Great Pirate Era. His hometown is worth a proper look."
Hawkins nodded and answered in a low voice.
Kuro adjusted his glasses out of habit and said calmly, "Loguetown is famous. There must be plenty of pirates here."
"There's bound to be promising newcomers among them. If I'm right, we'll have new members aboard when we leave."
Lafitte twirled his cane and smiled politely. "A sound analysis. I doubt you're wrong."
"Given the chance, pirates from all Four Seas stop here before entering the Grand Line."
"So there must be plenty of newcomers around."
(The picture above is of Alvida. I won't introduce her and pad the word count. Someone new will join in Loguetown—can you guess who? He uses a sword, and yes, he's a man.
