Chapter 34: Roger's Ship Doctor, Erwin!
"Kuina, take Akame shopping."
Lu Yu handed her a small box. "Here's 30 million Berries. Buy whatever you like."
Since Kuina was a native of this world, she understood the local customs and shops far better than Akame did. Letting her take the lead made perfect sense.
"Shopping?" Akame tilted her head, confused. "You mean... purchasing supplies?"
She looked at Lu Yu blankly, her tone slow and uncertain. For someone like her, the idea of shopping was alien. That sort of task had always fallen to others—Maine, Leone, or the rest.
"Nope," Kuina chuckled. "Shopping is when us girls go out to buy stuff we want, not just the stuff we need."
She leaned down slightly, grinning. "You're adorable, Akame. Let's go pick out some cute clothes or something, yeah?"
Without waiting for a response, Kuina grabbed her hand and led her away.
Kuina still carried the weight of her past, but ever since she'd joined the Dragon Hunter Pirates, something in her had shifted. This crew was different. They weren't just chasing power or chaos—they were building something real. And if they stayed on this path, maybe... just maybe, she could complete those things she once thought impossible.
Her heart felt a little lighter these days.
Once the two girls were out of sight, Lu Yu turned and walked into a nearby shop on his own.
"Welcome, young man. What are you looking for?" an old man greeted him politely as he stepped through the door.
It was a cozy little store, filled with antiques and hand-crafted trinkets. Honestly, a lot of it looked pretty high-quality.
Lu Yu glanced around, then met the man's gaze.
"Old sir, I want to know about Raftel," he said, taking a seat on one of the chairs near the wall. "How much do you think information like that would be worth?"
His tone was casual, but his eyes were sharp.
Lu Yu had a feeling this old man wasn't just some harmless shopkeeper. This store? Definitely a front. As for the guy's real role... well, Lu Yu wasn't sure yet. He only knew that men like this—leftovers from the previous era—often had a lot more going on than they let on.
Just like Rayleigh, who worked as a boatman on the Sabaody Archipelago. When he was broke, he'd go auction himself off to nobles, then kill whoever bought him, take their money, and go drinking.
Why did he do it? Who knew. Maybe just to watch how the world changed—how Roger's so-called Age of Pirates would play out.
The old man waved a hand. "Raftel? You're joking, kid. I'm just a shopkeeper. I might know a few things about Loguetown if you're interested, but Raftel? That's beyond me."
His voice was calm, steady, and a little too practiced.
Lu Yu smirked. "Oh? But... you just said Raftel isn't in Loguetown. How would you know that if you didn't know where it is?"
The old man froze for a split second.
"Hahaha..."
He laughed heartily, shaking his head.
"I didn't expect a sharp young man like you to catch that slip. Alright then. You said you wanted to know about Raftel?"
The calm aura around him shifted in an instant. The frail old man was gone—replaced by someone alert, strong, and brimming with presence.
Lu Yu watched, impressed. If he hadn't been paying close attention, he wouldn't have believed a person could shift their demeanor that quickly.
"The world's greatest treasure... the one Roger found at the end of the Grand Line—One Piece," Lu Yu said casually. "I'm guessing you were on that ship. You followed Roger to that final island."
No point hiding it now. Lu Yu had already figured it out.
"Haha... You're an interesting kid," the man chuckled. "How'd you know I was part of Roger's crew? From a hunch to full certainty—that's not a leap most can make."
Lu Yu leaned back and smiled. "You started probing me with your aura the moment I walked in. That wasn't a test on my part—I genuinely wanted to know about Raftel. But you gave yourself away. From that moment, I was sure."
He tapped the side of his head. "I've got... let's just say, a very solid knowledge base."
The man stared at him, then laughed again.
"Not bad. You remind me of Roger in his prime. No, maybe you've even surpassed him..."
He looked up thoughtfully. "I wonder how pissed he'd be if he heard me say that."
Then he turned back to Lu Yu and smiled.
"Name's Jero D. Erwin. I was the ship's doctor aboard the Pirate King's ship."
Lu Yu blinked. "Ship's doctor?!"
That wasn't what he expected.
If this guy had treated Roger, then his medical skills had to be insane—top-tier, even in a world full of monsters. Maybe... just maybe, he knew why Roger had been terminally ill. That man who conquered the seas had eventually turned himself in—not for fear, but for the sake of his unborn child.
"Yeah," Erwin nodded. "I was the first one to spot something wrong with Roger's health. It happened right after we left Raftel."
That raised even more questions for Lu Yu. In the original story, the ship doctor was supposed to be Crocus—the same old man who now looked after Laboon, the whale at Twin Capes.
Could there have been two doctors on the ship?
"Did you work with Crocus?" Lu Yu asked carefully.
"Yeah. That guy was good at holding Roger's condition in check for a while," Erwin admitted. "But Raftel... that place was the cause of it all."

He looked at Lu Yu seriously. "So, kid, want to hear the whole story?"
Honestly, Erwin had made up his mind the moment Lu Yu stepped into the store. The Pirate King had jump-started the Age of Pirates, but that didn't mean the old crew had to vanish into the shadows. They could still do something.
After all, Roger didn't just want to flip off the World Government—he wanted to leave behind hope.
Lu Yu straightened up. His expression grew serious.
"I'd love to hear it."
He was all ears now. Whatever secrets this man had—about Raftel, about Roger, about the world's greatest treasure—he wanted them.
This was the beginning.
Erwin's gaze drifted to the past.
"Well then... let me take you back. To the day we first set sail in search of the mysterious island—Raftel."
