Ryuya strolled through Mary Geoise, observing his surroundings and morizing key details.
Following the CP0 agent, he arrived at a palace-like building. Inside, he found five elderly n, lounging in various positions, seemingly waiting for him.
The CP0 agent bowed slightly before departing, leaving Ryuya alone.
Ryuya smiled, observing the Gorosei (Five Elders), subtly sensing their auras to gauge their strength.
The bald Gorosei addressed him, "Admiral White Pigeon! You've been making quite a na for yourself lately!" He spoke sharply.
Ryuya remained unfazed, calmly eting his gaze. The bald Gorosei's anger flared.
"You… you wouldn't be…"
Before he could finish, the Gorosei holding the first-generation Kitetsu interrupted with a cough, addressing Ryuya.
"Admiral White Pigeon, the recent peace on the Grand Line is largely due to your efforts, restoring the Navy's prestige.
Therefore, we wish to invite you to join CP0. You would undoubtedly beco its strongest mber."
Ryuya smiled, "Thank you for the offer, but I decline. I don't enjoy wearing masks. I am who I am. My apologies for disappointing you."
His smile widened. He wasn't intimidated by the Gorosei. He was the Navy's sharpest sword; they wouldn't dare touch him.
This attitude would reassure them; imdiate acceptance would have bred suspicion.
Sure enough, seeing his refusal, a hint of relief crossed their eyes.
"Since you dislike masks, we'll assign you a task."
"Oh? What task is that?" Ryuya asked calmly.
The Gorosei holding the Kitetsu said, "Eliminate the forr CP0 agent, the Pleasure Quarter Queen, Stussy."
Ryuya nodded thoughtfully, then waved dismissively.
"Forgive , esteed elders, I've just rembered that I requested leave from the Admiral and am currently on leave. I must depart."
He waved and left.
The Gorosei exchanged glances. The bald Gorosei, clearly short-tempered, slamd his fist on the table, shattering it.
"That White Pigeon dares to treat us with such disdain!"
"Good, it shows he's not perfect; he has pride."
"Perhaps his goal is to beco Admiral?"
"Then even if Akainu is promoted, Ryuya cannot beco Admiral!"
Ryuya disregarded their words. As a ti traveler, he knew the course of history.
Ace's escape from Marineford would be difficult, but Ryuya intended to save him, using this opportunity to beco Admiral and further distancing the Navy from the Gorosei's control.
He aid to completely control the Navy.
Back at his quarters, Ryuya addressed his companions, "Everyone, pack your bags. We're embarking on a four-month voyage!"
The system's voice echoed in his mind:
[Ding! Check-in mission issued: Skypiea. Reward: Ark's Maxim. Ti limit: 15 days.]
"Ti is tight. To enjoy a proper vacation, we need to move quickly," Ryuya said.
Ace, Stella, Makino, and others gathered their belongings and boarded Ryuya's ship, captivating the ordinary soldiers with their beauty.
Ryuya's group remained closed to new recruits.
Aboard his Admiral-class warship, Ryuya snapped his fingers.
One hundred illusions materialized, seamlessly taking control of the ship as it sailed from Marineford.
Ryuya studied the nautical chart.
There were two ways to reach Skypiea: follow the rising currents (extrely dangerous, fraught with Sea Kings), or use Luffy's thod from the original story (risky, all-or-nothing).
Ryuya had other options, such as using his magic to fly the ship.
But as Admiral White Dove, not the Dawn Bird leader, he couldn't use that.
He intended this journey to also serve as training for his companions, so he chose the first, more dangerous thod…
