Ch. 1The Rocks Era: A First Taste of a Pirate Paradise
After learning that the Rocks Pirates were attacking God Valley and Roger might join them, Garp ended his vacation and set out with Bogard. A week earlier on Hachinosu, Shane had awakened in the body of a rookie pirate, used the Demon Compass to gain strength, and killed veteran pirate Doron, establishing himself among the Rocks Pirates.
- Kong warned Garp that the Rocks Pirates were heading to God Valley, and Garp ordered Bogard to move out after hearing Roger was also on the way.
- After the Rocks Pirates returned to Hachinosu, Shane awakened on Rocky Port and learned that the Demon Compass could offer choices at fate singularities.
- Shane chose to absorb the original Shane's memories and skills, greatly increasing his physical ability, memory, and combat strength.
- When Doron ordered Shane to move bodies and then attacked him, Shane refused, gained Finger Pistol, and killed Doron with the technique.
- Shane stepped over Doron's body as the other rookie pirates carried it away, while the Rocks Pirates celebrated their return to Hachinosu.
