I couldn't keep carrying both of them around, so I used the mont Nami was asleep to instantly teleport to the rchant's Island and briefly explained Zala to the forr Baroque Works mbers before leaving her with them. At that mont, Marianne asked .
"Um, are more Baroque Works mbers coming?"
"Not right now, but more will co later. To be honest, there are a lot of people who would betray us and a lot of inhuman ones, so I plan to watch them a bit longer."
I wanted to bring Mr. 2 Bon Kurei and a reford Mr. 3 Gal Dino. But not now. I didn't know how the story would change.
"First, take good care of Zala once she wakes up after treatnt."
"Yes, boss."
I teleported back to Alabasta. Thankfully, Nami hadn't woken up. Since I used to lift my body slightly off the ground and move like I was flying, Nami felt no impact at all.[Telekinesis]
Next I went to Zoro. Zoro and Mr. 1 Daz Bones were both lying on the ground bleeding after their fight ended. I approached Zoro, used Heal to stop the bleeding, and wrapped bandages to treat him. Then Sanji ca running into view.
"Taejin hyung!"
"You co here too. I'll treat your wounds."
"No, I'm not badly hurt. I can still move."
Looking at Sanji with, I saw a few broken bones and bruises all over. This guy must have taken a serious beating from Bon Kurei. I grabbed Sanji right away, set his bones, and used a bit of Heal.[Vision]
Crack!
"Ack!"
"Endure it."
Because Sanji shouted, Nami, who was sleeping on my back, woke up too.
"Huh, Sanji."
"Nami-swan~ Ack!"
"Endure it!"
With the treatnt finished, Zoro also got up.
"Tch... Did the rchant treat ?"
"Yeah. Don't overdo it yet. I just stopped the bleeding."
Sanji rolled his arm a little and said.
"Amazing. The pain dropped a ton."
"You idiot! Don't roll your arm. I just put the bones back in place."
Typical of Luffy's crew — they were all reckless.
In the distance, Chopper and a mummy-like Usopp were riding a cal toward us. Chopper waved when he saw us.
"Waaay~~~ Sanji, Zoro, Nami, and unknown human~"
Chopper didn't know my na yet. When they arrived, I checked Usopp's condition. He was the most serious. A skull fracture... It wouldn't be strange if he died from a brain hemorrhage right now. But he was still talking, so this was One Piece — you couldn't approach it scientifically. Since this was different from the original, I used so Heal on Usopp's fracture in case of aftereffects.
Chopper got off the cal and looked over the areas I treated.
"Wow~ You're good at treating humans. Did you study dicine?"
"Yeah, and my na is Taejin. Rember it."
"Got it."
"And I'm charging treatnt fees."
As soon as money was ntioned, Nami, who was on my back, suddenly started acting cute.
"Aing~ Taejin oppa, why are you like this."
"That doesn't work on . Little kid."
"Tch!"
I set Nami down and said.
"This is as far as I help. Good luck."
"Thanks."
"Yeah, I'll co collect the treatnt fee later if I get the chance."
When money ca up again, Nami got angry and said.
"Taejin, you're rich — be a little generous!"
"Should I add 20% interest per month for you, Nami?"
"Oppa, I love you~"
Nami was an easy one without her realizing it.
I moved to Arbana for now. The rebel army and the kingdom's army were in the middle of fighting, and on the wall, Crocodile was holding Vivi by the neck, trying to drop her off the wall.
'Luffy will fly in coolly and catch Vivi, right?'
I waited to see that, but Luffy didn't co.
'Huh... He should be coming, right?'
Thinking about it, Luffy got here fast in the original because Pell turned into his [Bird-Bird Fruit Model Falcon] form and flew him to Arbana. But because I intervened, Luffy had no connection with Pell. Which ant Luffy was still running toward Arbana.
Crocodile dropped Vivi off the wall.
"This is screwed!"
I teleported in a hurry, caught Vivi, and landed safely.
"You're the rchant King!"
"Hah... This got ssed up..."
"What do you an by ssed up?"
"No, it's nothing."
Looking around, the rebel army and the kingdom's army were fighting brutally, blood splattering everywhere. Seeing that, Vivi shed tears and begged .
"rchant King, please stop this fight. You can do it, can't you!"
"..."
I was seriously troubled about what to do. From the mont I saved Vivi, the Alabasta arc's story was already wrecked. But if I just solved everything myself now, then what about Luffy...
While I was worrying, Vivi said urgently.
"I'll do anything I can for you, so please..."
I was montarily flustered by Vivi's desperate plea. She seed so desperate she was trying anything to stop this situation.
'Wait, hold on! 'Im' will want Vivi once he sees her face, because she looks like the old 'Nefertari D. Lily Queen'. Maybe it's better for Vivi if I hide her face and take her to the rchant's Island...'
"Fine! Then work as my secretary on the rchant's Island. That's the condition."
"Understood. I'll do it."
I held Vivi and landed in the center of the battlefield, then released [Conqueror's Haki]. Then the rebels and kingdom soldiers began collapsing. Of course, I adjusted it so Vivi wasn't affected.
"Guh!"
Thud! Thud! Thud!
"What..."
Vivi looked at the collapsing kingdom soldiers and rebels and tried to say sothing to , but I spoke first, anticipating it.
"Don't worry, their lives aren't in danger. They're just knocked out for a bit."
[Conqueror's Haki] has a range, so I couldn't take down everyone. At that overwhelming sight, even the people outside the range stopped fighting and stared at . I shouted loudly from the center.
"I am the rchant King, Taejin! Rebels, return now! If you don't, I'll kill you all!!"
I created an enormous Fla Emperor in the air. Normally you make a sea of fire around the area and compress the flas, but with [Fla Manipulation],, and the [Rumble-Rumble Fruit], I could compress it sufficiently even in midair. Because of that, it looked like the sun had descended close to the ground.[Telekinesis]
"Uwaaaa..."
"That's impossible!"
"My god..."
Fire abilities were definitely effective for things like this. Just then, a gunshot rang out and a bullet flew toward .
Bang!
I imdiately caught the bullet and flicked it back at the shooter with my finger.
Ping!
Thud!
Thud!
The guy who died was probably a Baroque Works agent.
"It's a monster!"
"A bullet..."
Seeing that, people backed away in fear and started fleeing one by one.
"Get out of here right now! If you don't want to die!"
Riding the montum, I slowly moved the Fla Emperor in the air toward the rebel army and pressured them more. Then the rebels were busy running away.
"Uwaaa, run away!!"
I gave them plenty of ti to escape and then threw the Fla Emperor, turning the desert into a sea of fire. If I did this, they probably wouldn't co back for a while out of fear.
Whoooosh!
"Oh~ It burns well."
Seeing that, Vivi said to .
"Are you even human?"
"I am. And wait, it's not over yet."
I turned around and said to the kingdom's soldiers.
"From now on, capture anyone with a Baroque Works tattoo on their arm! Those guys spread false rumors and caused this."
Murmur murmur
Hearing that, the kingdom's soldiers looked at each other and checked their arms. A few guys suddenly pulled out guns and weapons and started threatening those around them.
"Don't co near!"
I imdiately took iron balls from my inventory and threw them precisely at their heads.
Thud! Thwack! Thud! Thud!
"Ugh!" "Guh!" "Ack!" "Guh!"
"Look at the arms of those who just died! That tattoo is the Baroque Works tattoo. Check each other's arms right now and capture the remaining Baroque Works stragglers!"
The kingdom's soldiers finally started actively checking each other's arms.
"It's that guy, get him!"
"Uwaack! I was just following orders!"
A few more were caught like that and the kingdom's soldiers tied them up. anwhile, Luffy was seen running from a distance. Vivi pointed at Luffy with a bright face.
"Look over there. It's Luffy!"
Luffy was breathing heavily as he ran toward us.
"Huff huff huff huff! Hyung, when did you get here. Huff huff huff! I feel like I left first..."
This guy had clearly burned a lot of stamina running here. I gave him water first and let him rest a bit while we talked.
"Luffy, Crocodile is holding King Cobra right now."
Vivi added too.
"And he seems to have hidden a powerful bomb sowhere. He said he'd blow up the plaza."
"Then let's split up. Luffy, where do you want to go."
"I'll go catch Crocodile."
"Then I'll take the bomb."
"Good!"
As Luffy tried to run toward the castle again, I grabbed him and said.
"I'll throw you to the castle. That'll be faster."
"Is that possible?"
"Yeah."
I took a log from my inventory.
"Grab on."
Luffy climbed onto the log and held on tight. I imdiately picked up the log and aid at the top of the wall.
"I'm throwing! Ready?"
"Ooh! Throw it!"
"Hup!"
I used a javelin-throwing stance and controlled my strength to throw the log over the wall.
Whoosh!
"Uwaaaaa~"
Luffy flew toward the wall while shouting. Vivi watched that and was impressed.
"Wow~ This is possible..."
After watching that and confirming he flew well, I said to Vivi again.
"Get on my back. If we leave you here, you could get hit by Baroque Works stragglers. Can't let my future secretary die."
"Yes."
When Vivi got on my back, I took out a large cloth again and secured her tightly to my shoulders and waist. Then I moved toward the clock tower, being careful not to jostle Vivi.
"Found you. Princess!"
Bang!
"Gyaack!"
Baroque Works stragglers attacked on the way, but I hadn't used the [Energy Bomb] ability in a while, so I threw mana-charged cards and killed them as soon as they appeared.
'Since coming to One Piece, I've really killed a lot of people.'
In the MCU or Konosuba, it felt less like murder because they were monsters and aliens, but in One Piece I was definitely killing a lot of people. The world itself was like that, so it couldn't be helped. But that didn't an my mind was breaking or my personality was changing or anything.
When we arrived under the clock tower, I said to Vivi.
"It's gonna shake a bit now, so hold on tight."
"Yes, yes!"
I supported Vivi's butt with one hand and jumped, climbing the clock tower.
"Kyaaaack!"
"If you scream like that, the enemies will notice."
"Eep!"
Vivi hurriedly tried to cover her mouth, but it was already too late — bullets started flying from the top of the clock tower.
Bang bang bang!
Looking up, Mr. 7 and Miss Father's Day were shooting from the top floor of the clock tower where the giant clock was. I used to bend the bullets' trajectories and made them all miss, then arrived at the top floor of the clock tower.[Telekinesis]
"How is this possible? I definitely shot properly."
Without even looking, I grabbed both of their necks and threw them outside the clock tower.
"Uwaaaaack!" "Kyaaaaack!"
Vivi looked at the cannon installed in the clock tower and said.
"This must be it."
I looked around the cannon too, and the fuse hadn't been lit yet, so there was still ti. But I heard a tir ticking inside the cannon.
Tick tick tick...
Hearing that, Vivi said with a panicked expression.
"This, no way! It seems like a ti bomb. We need to look inside the cannon."
We moved to the front of the cannon and looked inside. Then inside the cannon, a black ball-shaped ti bomb was visible, and it had a tir and a handle attached very kindly.
"Hahaha, they even put a handle on it — is this Oda-sensei's kindness for plot convenience? It's made perfectly for soone to grab and fly off to self-destruct."
"Is now the ti to laugh? And who is Oda-sensei?"
"Whoa! You can't say that na carelessly."
I went into the cannon, grabbed the kind handle, and pulled the ti bomb out. Seeing there was about a minute left, I imdiately put it in my inventory. In the original, it was a bomb with pretty good destructive power and a one-minute tir, so there would definitely be a ti to use it.
"Huh! Where did the ti bomb go?"
"I sent it far away, so don't worry now."
"Is, is that so?"
Vivi had seen so many unbelievable things today that she just accepted it.
"Now that the bomb's dealt with, we just have to hope Luffy's crew does well."
"I'm sure they will. I believe in Luffy."
