It actually has a French derivation, taken from the word "pièce", or play. In addition to being a pirate, Roger was also in fact a playwright, but not a very good one, the world knew it and even he knew it. However, he wrote one semi-decent to incredible play that he hid away from the world, for fear of further criticism and rejection. He considered it his greatest treasure, and only those willing to brave hell and high water could read it. The only other person to read it was Whitebeard, but Roger swore him to secrecy. The content of the play died with Whitebeard, but not before he confirmed its existence to the world. That's why Sengoku and Garp, One Piece's equivalent to Ebert (RIP) and Roeper were so mad when he announced it, because they didn't want another pos script from Roger going public. And that is why people to this day still seek the great treasure known as One Pièce.
