AN:- ACTIONS HAVE CONCEQUENCES, AND THAT IS WHAT WE WILL BE LEARNING IN THIS Chapter. ANYWAYS, HOPE YOU GUYS LIKE Chapter 46.
[PREVIOUSLY ON GAR PIECE]
"Yes, Boss. She said that he hasn't been available for the past six months."
So, he might be out there gambling just like in canon, leading to him getting sold off as a slave to clear his debt.
Silver Rayleigh, here we co, bringing you your future student.
"HEY GUYS, LOOK!!!" Franky screams for our attention, making all of us look towards where he is pointing. It has been two days since we left the Turtle Island, and I had been using the dungeon to fast-travel to reach the one place of our next crewmate—
Thriller Bark—
or Florian Triangle, I guess.
All of our eyes widen as we see what he is pointing at, as the weather goes from sunny to windy and rainy real quick. The waters also get sent up in the air like a rocket, but it starts swirling before turning its trajectory towards the nearest thing—
us.
"INCOMING!!!" I scream, trying to hold onto the handles to balance myself. Franky and Luffy hold onto each mast, and Robin goes inside the lounge so as not to get swept up. rry tries to ride the current, but she is too weak to do it.
This pisses her off imnsely.
"CO ON, STUPID BODY!!!" She screams, trying her hardest to stay on track, but another geyser slams into rry, sending her crashing into YET another geyser, which slams her back into place. I realize she can't handle any more of this, as I can see her H.P. going down drastically.
"KAHAHA!!!" I leave my hold on rry as I fire a Kahaha onto an upcoming geyser, making Franky and Luffy leave the mast to help . Robin cos out as well, helping in protecting rry. Luffy fires a Hito-Hito no—Rubber Cannon, as Franky uses Weapons Left, obliterating two more geysers.
Robin generates over 20 hands from her power, creating a windmill-type technique that spins, hitting the geysers and dispersing them. With all of us combining our attacks to destroy the geysers one by one, rry is safeguarded, allowing her to guide us out of the geysers. It takes an entire hour to do so, though.
"GUYSSSSS!!!!" As we destroy another water geyser, Luffy screams happily, pointing towards a clear sky. And that's when we all see it, all of our eyes widening.
For different reasons, of course.
For Luffy, it is rembering his promise to Laboon and his intention to circle the world to reach Laugh Tale. For Franky, he feels nostalgic about his ti from South Blue and reaching Water 7 through Reverse Mountain. For Robin, she rembers getting hunted down by the World Governnt, causing her to travel to the Grand Line from West Blue. For rry, she is finally happy to bring the crew to the halfway point in their journey. She completed her first task; now, she wants to fight together and travel with all of us.
For , though, it is dread.
'Why the hell am I seeing the Red Line?' I panic, as this is completely unexpected. This is not in my plan at all. My Gar's Mind calms down, but this troubles , like the Red Line is reflecting back at the consequences of all the actions I have made since joining the Straw Hat crew.
The plan was simple when I first made it. Go to Thriller Bark, get Brook, get Shusui (defeating Gecko Moria was optional), get to Sabaody and buy/steal Adam wood, send Franky into the dungeon with it so he can craft the best ship he has ever built, cross the Red Line and enter the New World, get the crew, cross the Red Line once again and enter Marineford, saving Ace and getting the fuck out of there.
We couldn't even properly follow the first step of the plan. We couldn't get Brook, one of the OG crew mbers of the Straw Hat crew, and it is all my fault.
"Hey, everything alright?" Robin notices my scrunched-up face, which I wear when I am thinking of sothing—sothing hard. I turn to her, trying to give an answer. If I didn't have Gar's Mind, I would have genuinely panicked right now.
"Kinda. I expected us to go into the Florian Triangle, not arrive at the Red Line this fast." I just cannot think as to WHY we changed routes. From what I know, the Florian Triangle is in between Sabaody, so we HAVE to cross it to reach Sabaody. But now, why didn't we—
"Well, we left from Enies Lobby, so that is why we missed the Florian Triangle. If we left from Water 7, then we might have gone straight through the Florian Triangle." I blink owlishly, making everyone surprised. Luffy is the most surprised, though, judging by his expression.
"You didn't know that?" He sounds like he knows about the path, which makes annoyed. I shake my head, genuinely indicating that I didn't know about this. Robin chuckles, amused at this.
"So there is sothing you don't personally know, huh? That's interesting."
It is as if Luffy got an infinite at buffet—his grin widens across his cheeks, jumping onto rry's head and looking ahead in an excitent I haven't seen in him before—
Wait, I have seen it. I saw it in the ani and manga, when Luffy went up Reverse Mountain. When he went to Skypiea. When he arrived at Sabaody Archipelago. When he arrived in Fish-Man Island. Whenever he visited an island he didn't know about, he would have the grin he is wearing right now.
Why didn't I see that grin before? Why—
...Because of , huh?
Because of , Luffy didn't get to experience the wonders of exploring a new island, the excitent of finding sothing interesting. I... made it boring. Just like I accidentally made all of us skip Brook. Just like all of us got split up because I was in this crew.
All because I joined this crew, I broke it, added so tape in it (Bon Clay, Aisa, Wyper), and now it's barely hanging on.
"...Hey, you okay?" Robin asks , making look at her. The fact that she knows sothing is wrong with even though I don't show emotions—it is impressive. I smile at her, trying to assure her.
"Yeah, I am... nostalgic, you could say." Robin nods, understanding. From this short conversation, I gave her the idea that I don't quite like my previous "ho" in Sabaody. She walks towards the edge, looking at the Red Line approaching, as Franky, rry, and Luffy look with her, leaving all alone in my thoughts.
I... just gotta say sothing out.
"Murphy's Law—No, the Third Law of Motion is a Bitch." I Whisper as I walk towards them, standing next to them and watching the Red Line approaching. I use Parallel Brain skill to think of all the ways I can redy the situation, at least sowhat.
"For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. For joining the crew, all of us beco stronger than in canon, but we are in more trouble than ever. Also, considering adding new mbers and the possibility of losing mbers."
I try so hard not to sigh, I really do, but—
"Hey guys, let's eat sothing. I'm hungry."
Luffy jumps from rry's head to the deck, walking into the kitchen. All of us follow him, also a little hungry. I stop holding the sigh, finally sighing. Robin looks at in amusent, thinking that I am a little frustrated at Luffy wanting to eat this soon.
As all of us walk in, I continue thinking about what to do.
"WOAHHHH!!!!"
Luffy screams in delight, seeing bubbles floating upwards. He jumps into one, going inside of the bubble without popping it, flying upwards with it. All of us look at Luffy with a smile, including our new friends—
An octopus Fish-Man with eight appendages (six arms and two legs) and an octopus-like face, having pink skin and grey hair styled into spikes. The person has suction cups on his six arms, along with a tattoo in the shape of a sun on his forehead.
A young kissing gourami rmaid with green hair, dark purple eyes, and prominent lips. She wears a yellow and pink t-shirt that exposes her stomach, and she has an orange clam-shaped backpack along with a pink tail with light fins, her dorsal fin being white.
An orange starfish that appears to be stitched along his outline. His face is in the middle of his body. He wears a hat.
Hatchan, Camie, and Pappag.
We t Camie and Pappag while killing a Sea Rabbit, both of them sohow ending up inside of the Sea Rabbit. To thank us, both of them took us to Hatchan, who was surprised at eting Luffy. After rembering who Hatchan was, Luffy almost punched him, but I stopped him.
I explained the situation to Nami, who gave consent for us to hang out with Hatchan. While she still hasn't forgiven him, Nami knows that I already have a plan in motion, and she cannot be stingy and ruin it.
Hatchan brought us here, thinking that we are going to Fish-Man Island, which we didn't see the need to correct yet. He brought us to Sabaody Archipelago, where we are currently going to rent so Bikes of Bubble.
"Hustle Muscle Mangroves are what make this archipelago. From the ground, bubbles co out, and due to how dense the mangroves are, the bubbles sustain themselves even if soone touches them," Hatchan explains to the people who have no idea how the archipelago works.
"But, after reaching a certain point, it bursts like normal." I speak up right as all of us see Luffy's bubble explode, forcing him to fall back to the ground with a thud. Camie and Pappag freak out, thinking Luffy died, but he pops his head out from the ground, grinning like a lunatic.
"Man, your ho is aweso, Rai!! What other things exist on this island?" Luffy jumps toward like a little kid wanting a toy, making smile. Hatchan, Camie, and Pappag all look at in surprise.
"You are from here?" Camie asks. I nod at Camie's question, returning to answer Luffy's question. I open my Window, searching for the information to give to Luffy about Sabaody Archipelago.
Yeah, I can search now.
I can use Google after absorbing my phone and assimilating it into my System. I can access all of Google, including the dark web. (Yes, I have checked.) I also binge-watched all the news, mangas (including One Piece Chapters), and ani (ESPECIALLY Solo Leveling).
I can even contact soone, but the biggest problem is that all the numbers I have in my system are the numbers of the Transponder Snails. I even tried calling my number back in my world, but it didn't even connect, further proving to that I have no way of going ho.
"Luffy, Grove 34 has Sabaody Park, you can go there. I will get in touch with so... contacts and get back to you. Until then, you guys can do whatever." With that, I start walking towards the trees that lead to the lawless areas.
"Oh, and Franky, catch." I throw a Transponder Snail towards Franky. Franky knows what this snail is for, so he nods, grinning. I made Franky talk to the Grand Fleet stationed in Sabaody so he can contact them and procure all the wood he personally needs. I already gave him enough money (500 million) to buy all the Adam Wood he wants.
I even gave him specific adjustnts that we need for our new ship, making Franky go from horrified to absolutely excited. Honestly, even he didn't think about so of the adjustnts. Plus, his inventor side is acting up whenever we talk about the specifications of the new ship.
"Hey, Rai." rry calls , making turn to her. She hugs , making look confused.
"Thank you." She whispers silently, making smile as I hug her back.
rry has weirdly evolved by absorbing life from monsters in my dungeon. She has sohow gained the ability to transform into a ship and back into her Klabautermann form. Whenever she is in her ship form, she can show up as a spirit, but when she is in her Klabautermann form, she is as alive as any other person in this world.
She leaves my grasp, excited about finally enjoying her life as a human being—at least, as human as she can be. She, Luffy, Robin, Hatchan, Camie, and Pappag all leave for Sabaody Park, while Franky leaves to go to the one-digit Groves, getting in touch with the Grand Fleet mbers.
I finally sigh, all alone. I start walking aimlessly, really not having a destination to go to. I take step by step, looking at the supposed "Map" of this world, finally understanding where I went wrong. I assud that our destination would always be the sa, as there would be nothing to change it. Even though the majority of our crew was captured, Luffy and I still reached Water 7 like our crew was supposed to, reinforcing my assumption.
Now, I am going to completely make sure I calculate all the variables, including sohow stranding on a random island. I open Google, searching for the perfect way to get to G-5. There is one way, and that is to go through Fish-Man Island, which is how everyone is thinking of going.
But, I don't want to go through that way. I know that Luffy won't like the fact we will go exploring Fish-Man Island without the crew, so there are two ways to get to G-5 Base. One is through Mariejois, like Kuma went. Or, we can go through the authorized way like good Samaritans.
Hmm, what should I do? I look up, noticing that I am nearing a restaurant. According to Google, we are in Grove 22. I decide to go in and eat sothing, but I notice that Google specifically ntions Bonney eating in this sa restaurant. I stop, activating Observation Haki as I scan the area, both inside of the restaurant and outside of the restaurant.
I sense a couple of people inside, but my focus is on a presence standing right outside the restaurant, looking into it. I realize who this is imdiately, as the presence notices before disappearing.
"Kuma," I whisper, rembering all the suffering he went through—no, is going through to keep his daughter safe. I assimilate my map with my Observation Haki, sensing the entire island in one fell swoop. I feel strong people, especially two people who are as strong as currently, but weaker than Luffy, and by a lot.
"I will et—no, I HAVE to et you at least once." It is important for to make sure Kuma is safe and happy, as he at least deserves it. I scratch my chin, thinking of what to do, so I continue walking, leaving the restaurant alone as I walk once more.
As I walk, I notice people staring at in horror, fascination, greed, and there are also people looking down at . I ignore them, as I walk into Grove 21, noticing a commotion happening sowhere.
I walk towards it, because why not? As I walk, I notice three people standing in a face-off-ish situation. One is a huge man with wings on his back, the other is a man wearing a fully covered helt with blond hair, and a domino mask dude with an 'X'-shaped scar on his chin. All of them stop what they are doing as they look at , and imdiately get on guard.
I ignore them, as I look towards the only person of interest sitting on the side. A slim young man with tan skin and a very tall stature. He wears a northern-style fur hat, which is white and has a spotted pattern along the bottom and the bill. He has very short dark hair, a majority of which is obscured by his hat, save for his sideburns and a small goatee.
He has many tribal-style tattoos on his arms; on both of his hands are letters spelled as D E A T H tattooed in black on each of the back of his fingers.
Law smirks, making smirk too. His eyes widen, and I nod at him, acknowledging his existence. His smile widens, but soone from the people standing finally speaks, Urouge.
"Well, well, well, we have a very special guest here." His grin widens when I look towards him, and I chuckle. I raise my hand, waving at a non-existent fanbase who are cheering on. Urouge figures out what I am doing and chuckles, along with Law.
"Thanks for the fabulous introduction, Urouge, how you doing?" As if we have been friends for ages, I walk towards him with an easy-going grin on my face. While Urouge gets even more on guard, his grin doesn't disappear, as he laughs.
"Hahahaha!!! Well, my friend, I am doing very good. How about you? Heard you guys have been leaking state official secrets." This sentence makes laugh, as I stop in front of him. He really has no idea how good it feels when soone puts it like that.
"I am a supporter of the public, so I gotta do what I gotta do." I raise my hand for a dab, making Urouge's eyes widen, but his smile widens even more, as he swings his arm towards mine, similarly to doing it as well.
*CLAP*
A majestic clap resounds over the entire area, making us both smile even wider. We both remove our hands, before I turn towards the remaining two Supernovas.
Oh yeah, I might be in the category of Supernova, as I DID leak the state secrets, so they gonna up the bounty for . If I predict correctly, I might be around 200 million bounty at maximum.
"Anyways, it was good eting you guys. May we et again." I nod towards the remaining two, walking like I own the place as all three Supernovas look at my back, still on guard for a fight. As I continue walking, I notice I am going back to the restaurant. I decide to et the 'daughter' as well as the 'mafia' dude, making sure I get just how strong every Supernova is.
I did use Observe on the four back there, but all that showed was ???, as I was low-leveled compared to them. That ans they are in the Lv. 100s–Lv. 150s range in my humble opinion.
"Huh?" I raise my eyebrows, noticing the current situation. A fatass man is looking at in confusion. I see a bubble surrounding his face, as snot cos out of his nose—
I scrunch up my face in disgust, and it seems that was the wrong move, as the person raises his gun—
'Oh wait, he is a Celestial Dragon, the sa one that got his face manga panel-ed by Luffy, before getting fucked up once again by the Tontattas.' As I rember Saint Charlos, he shoots my face—
*BANG*
My head snaps back, as I stand there limply, my hands in my pant pockets. Silence reigns in the area, before I pull my head back upwards and spit the bullet to the ground. I always wanted to do that.
"Hey, you." Charlos calls out to , making look at him. He points his gun again and fires at once again—
*BANG*
This ti though, I use my hand to catch the bullet. I open my palm, showing the bullet held between my fingers. The guards that are always accompanying the Celestial Dragons raise their weapons, making drop the bullet.
"What are you doing, commoner?" Charlos is really unpredictable, as while he is asking questions, he shoots once again—
*BANG*
*BANG*
*BANG*
Not once, but three tis. All I do is turn my head slightly, pulling back my arms a little bit above, and turning to the side just enough as all bullets whiz by . It looked like all shots missed, but they were all dodged—and so people noticed it. Two people, in fact.
But I imdiately fall on my back, spraying ketchup sauce all over myself to make it look like I'm bleeding. The guards know it, the people in the street know it, the Supernovas know it—
But that stupid fatass doesn't.
He smiles, cheering for his "kill" as he walks towards and kicks in the face. The punch was so weak that it literally didn't even reduce my HP by 1. After celebrating a little bit, he leaves the area. The guards co up to , but I disappear, appearing behind them like nothing happened as I start walking randomly.
I feel eyes on , so I turn and give them a peace sign before walking away.
As I walk through Grove 20, I notice wanted posters all attached to buildings and trees. I turn around, bringing both my arms up as I fire Mana Blasts toward the edges of the trees—more than 20 people fall to the ground, hurt.
I don't even care to get the EXP from them, so I leave these bounty hunters just like that. As I walk, I notice fresh bounties hanging on so walls, so I walk towards them.
As I read them, my eyes widen in shock before I start laughing—
MONKEY D. "STRAW HAT" LUFFY
1.2 BILLION BERRIES
"CYBORG" FRANKY
198 MILLION BERRIES
NICO "DEMON CHILD" ROBIN
700 MILLION BERRIES
As I see mine, my laughter increases even more—
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA~"
RAI "WILDCARD" ADAM
1 BILLION BERRIES
THE END
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
AN:- WITH THE ENTRY OF THE WILDCARD HAVING A BOUNTY JUMP FROM 33 MILLION BERRIES TO 1 BILLION BERRIES, HOW WILL THIS STORY CHANGE? I FELT IT APPROPRIATE THAT THE MC HAS A BILLION BERRIES SINCE IMU HAS SO KNOWLEDGE ABOUT HIM. PLUS, LUFFY KINDA DECLARED TO THE WORLD THAT HE HAS EATEN THE HITO HITO NO MI, MODEL: NIKA, THE SA DEVIL FRUIT THE GOVERNNT HAS BEEN HUNTING FOR 800 YEARS, SO HIS BOUNTY IS ALSO JUSTIFIED, SA AS ROBIN'S DUE TO HER ABILITY TO READ PONEGLYPHS.
ANYWAYS, HOPE YOU GUYS LIKED THIS Chapter.
