Chapter's Events:
—————————
"Red Hair!!? The man who led Luffy onto the pirate's path!" Seeing this man, Garp ground his teeth in hatred.
"…!!" Sengoku stared silently.
"It's the Red Hair Pirates!!!"
"He was fighting Kaido, one of the other four emperors, just yesterday! And now he's already here!!?" The Marine soldiers were shocked by this turn of events.
…
"Buggy!!" Shanks threw the straw hat towards the floating Buggy, saying: "Get that to Luffy!!""Hmm!!? Straw hat!!?" Buggy questioned in confusion.
"I have this treasure map I was going to give you…" Seeing Buggy's hesitation, Shanks concocted a lie he knew Buggy would fall for.
"Really!! Wait just a second, I'll get it to him!" And that's exactly what happened.
"Boss! It's been ten years; aren't you going to see Luffy even once?" Suggested Lucky Roo.
"Yeah… I'd sure like to…" Shanks said nostalgically as he recalled giving the hat to Luffy for the first time.
(I'll give you this hat.)
…
"Captain! I know it's rare to see one of the four emperors, but if we don't go, the gate will close!!"
Leaning against the submarine gate, Law seemed to be waiting for something.
"Yeah… wait, something's flying this way!"
Law caught the straw hat Buggy threw at him.
…
(Make sure you return it to me when you've become a great pirate.)
These were the words Shanks told Luffy after giving him the hat ten years ago.
"But… If I saw him now,"
"You would be breaking your promise. Right, Luffy?"
•———•———•———•———•
Meanwhile, everyone was sitting on the edge of their seats, reading the last chapter of the volume.
How did they know it was the last chapter? Well, it seemed like it was the last two pages indeed.
"Who would have thought this man would come after everyone knew he was stuck in a blockade with another emperor, Kaido?"
"Did he finish him that quickly!!?"
"Does this mean that Kaido isn't that impressive?"
"Well, who knows what really happened, the important thing is that Red Hair Shanks is here… Thank goodness Luffy was saved, and he even got his hat back."
"Pfft! Hahaha! Buggy is so stupid he fell for Shanks' lie."
"Well, they are old friends, so it makes sense that he knows how to trick him."
In the art store at Ohara, the atmosphere was a bit happier this time after everyone had cried due to the bitter end of Ace and Whitebeard.
What surprised many was that Shanks had a huge popularity among readers, which multiplied at this moment.
"For this man to come to a massive war like the Summit War and say he wants to end it… What kind of metal is he made of?" Professor Clover wondered.
"No wonder, he was under the command of the Pirate King, he inherited the qualifications of a king from Roger," Vegapunk replied with an excited expression.
"Look at the cowardly expression on Akainu's face… It looks like he swallowed a fly. Isn't Shanks also a pirate? Why did you stop rampaging, you filthy dog?"
Saul mocked, hating Akainu's character ever since the Ohara flashback when he burned the passenger ship with many innocent people on board.
"Yohohoho! Not just him, the three admirals are unable to do anything, look at the miserable movements of Kizaru and Aokiji."
Brook also mocked the inability of both Aokiji and Kizaru to stop the escaping submarine despite their immense abilities.
"The picture is clear now," Homing smiled after seeing Shanks and his crew's straightforward challenge to everyone… Whoever still wants to fight, step forward.
This part of the chapter was his favorite.
And he was not alone, it was the favorite for many.
…
Mihawk's eyes sparkled after seeing a certain scene in the chapter.
"Well, does your counterpart's retreat mean cowardice or that they are acquaintances?"
Doffy's smile seemed annoying to Mihawk.
"Isn't your counterpart also a Shichibukai? Why doesn't he go and fight them then?" Mihawk questioned.
"Well, it seems that fighting any longer is no longer fun… My counterpart has already had enough fun."
Doffy retreated from his mockery.
"Red Hair knows how to talk." Issho smiled, admiring Shanks' eloquence.
"Amazing!" Rosinante's eyes sparkled like stars, it seemed like he had found another idol besides his teacher.
Shanks was indeed such an impressive character.
"Why are they all so scared? This man hasn't shown any skills yet…"
Enel was puzzled by this scene, feeling like everyone wanted to stop the battle as soon as this red-haired man arrived.
"Well, these are the benefits of great power," Issho explained.
…
"I see that… Your counterpart escaped from my counterpart, didn't he?"
"Worororo! What a coward!"
On Urura Island in the New World, all the Beast Pirates could hear Kaido's loud laughter.
"What's up with this man and his crew? Why did they arrive so quickly?"
"The amazing thing is that they say he stopped my counterpart from reaching Marineford and then came after that…"
"Do you believe this nonsense, King?"
"I mean, I could understand if the person who did that was the Sky Sword Rob… but who could this man called Red Hair be to stop me?"
"It seems he has great respect from Fleet Admiral Sengoku, Kaido-san," King said.
…
•———•———•———•———•
"You lied about the treasure map!? Why, you…!!" Buggy exploded in anger after realizing he was deceived.
"Yup. Long time no see, Buggy." Shanks responded with a welcoming smile.
"What do you mean by that!!? Did you forget I've got a bone to pick with you, Shanks!!? How dare you use me!!?" Just like their younger selves, the familiarity was evident between them, surprising the prisoners Buggy had freed.
"Did you see that?"
"I saw…"
"He's talking back to one of the four emperors, the Red Hair!!" The prisoners were crying tears of joy.
(Captain Buggy…!!)
(We'll follow you… For our entire lives!!!)
…
(But wait… If I stick with these guys, I'll be able to get out of here safely, right!!?) Buggy seemed wiser than expected.
"Red Hair!!!" Marco called out.
"Marco, quickly withdraw your men and don't retaliate," Shanks suggested, not noticing Vista and Yassop staring at each other in clear annoyance.
…
"Hawkeye!! Where are you going!!?" Mihawk sheathed his sword and began to leave the battlefield, catching the attention of the Marines.
"I agreed to fight with Whitebeard, but Red Hair wasn't in the agreement," he said coldly.

Hunters Island:
"What do you think?"
Ben Beckman looked at Yassop and asked with a smile.
"Amazing for sure… It seems our counterparts as pirates are enjoying their time." Yassop replied.
"Do you see that?"
"What?"
"Look here… This scene is almost unclear."
Yassop squinted towards the scene Beckman pointed at.
In the scene where Marco and Shanks met, right behind Marco, Vista and his counterpart Yassop were glaring at each other in annoyance.
The colored scene in this manga was clearer than the regular version.
"Well, it's obvious that there would be conflicts between different crews, right?"
"Vista is strong, but in front of my counterpart, he could only die if he wanted to."
Yassop scoffed.
…
Far from the New World, in the South Blue at Baterilla:
"Hahaha! Buggy was easily deceived by my counterpart."
Shanks burst into laughter after seeing the scene of him tricking Buggy.
"You scoundrel! Even after growing older and gaining some fame, you are still as shameless as ever! Anyway, I will always owe you a treasure map!" Buggy exploded in anger.
"Didn't Luffy give your counterpart Captain John's treasure map in Impel Down? Why is your counterpart so greedy?"
"Hah! I don't care about such things anymore! Now I am greedy for power! Believe me, I'll kick your ass someday."
"Stop it."
"Ouch!"
Both Buggy and Shanks received a painful punch to the head from Roger, making them instinctively stop fighting.
"This last chapter is very important, let's analyze it calmly, guys." Roger smiled.
"What do you think of these events?" Roger asked, looking at his crew.
"It seems that the spirit of our crew has manifested in the Red Hair Pirates." Rayleigh smiled.
"Shanks is doing a good job protecting the world order, isn't he?" Gaban added, smiling.
"Wahahaha! As expected of our wonderful trainees."
