At this point, what even was the “Roger Era”?
Post Rocks, like Roger wasn’t the strongest man on the sea, That was Harald
Roger wasn’t the most famous pirate on the sea since no one seems to know that he took down Rocks with Garp (remember those theories that Big mom and Kaido witnessed Roger’s power and that’s why they wank him, nope, didn’t happen)
Immediately after Rocks we are being told that Roger was in competition with Whitebeard Big mom and Kaido for territories
Roger had already reached Lodestar island one year before God valley and no one cared. It didn’t change shit. Roger just spent several years after that seemingly unremarkably until he COMPLETELY LUCKED OUT on finding Oden on Whitebeard’s crew and begging Whitebeard for him. And that’s what got him the one piece.
Is this it? The great “Roger Era”?
