Short Summary
After gaining the title of Pirate King, Gol D. Roger decided to disband his crew. Roger was the first to leave and the rest of the crew returned Kozuki Oden to Wano Country.
Oden reunited with his family and retainers. The retainers then told Oden about Kurozumi Orochi becoming shogun and how he had been oppressing the citizens with the aid of Kaido. After hearing about how his family was threatened, Oden charged to the Flower Capital and confronted Orochi.
Long Summary
After returning from Laugh Tale, Shanks and Buggy are reunited with the rest of Roger Pirates. Shanks asked something about Roger's final voyage, but he cried after Roger's answer. Roger and co. then learned that the world is on a stir after the birth of the Pirate King, "Gold Roger". Roger is annoyed that the World Government is hiding his true name, Gol D. Roger, but considering what they learned in Laugh Tale, he understands the reason of this conspiracy. The world referred that everything that Roger gained as the "One Piece".
Some time after that, Roger gathered all of his crewmates to tell them his gratitudes and stated that he is disbanding the Roger Pirates. A flashback during the crew's travel to Fishman Island is shown, where both Roger and Oden heard a discussion between two Sea Kings about the birth of their queen who will be born 10 years from now and will need another 15 years to grow. Roger asked Sharley about the birth of Mermaid Princess and learned that she will be born in 10 years. Roger predicts that someone will be born and surpasses them, as they're too early at finding the One Piece. He said to Rayleigh that his child will find One Piece but the first mate refuted that Roger doesn't have a kid. Roger orders the crew to sail to someplace where the Marines aren't waiting, saying he will be the first one to leave the Oro Jackson.
Roger intends to meet Edward Newgate for the last time before he dies and asks Oden about Izo. Oden said that Izo is already very comfortable on Whitebeard's ship, and ask Roger to pass on a message to Izo; taking care of Whitebeard for him. After reaching an island, Roger said something to Rayleigh and then he finally stepped off the ship with a bundle of medicine from Crocus, as his disease is on its final stages. The crew bid him farewell in a waterfall of tears despite Oden claiming in his journals that not a single tear was shed.
Their next destination is Wano, to drop off Oden. Oden said that he will open the borders of his country before the day that Joy Boy appears. The crews bid their farewell to Oden, again with a rain of tears despite Oden claimed that they parted with a smile.
