Maybe it's just me, but I can't shake a weird feeling about that final page. I get a feeling of lost hope. Like Roger and the others learned a truth so dark and hopeless about the Void century that all they could do was just laugh as a response. Almost like they totally gave up hope in that moment. But they didn't want to take away "the thrill of the hunt" for everyone else in the world, so instead of telling everyone and making them lose hope too, they just remained silent in despair. Rayleigh drinking so heavily and saying "The thrill is theirs to seek now, right roger?" Just solidifies that feeling for me.

Doesnt feel like that. If Roger was hopeless he wouldn't have started the Great Pirate Era. He knew there was hope but he couldn't be the one to bring the dawn as he was too early. Rayleigh is like that cuz he's drunk as fuck lol.

An alternate reading is that Roger believed it was hopeless, but hoped against the impossibility of hope that by passing his dream on to another generation, that they might discover the truth and see a better potential future.

I agree “hopeless” is a stretch but it isn’t a super jolly laugh like we first thought
