A week later, Dobby returned with two new people. They were an addition to the village.
But just the day after, the newspaper arrived with big news.
[Headline - DOBBY THE DREAD DESTROYS RED PORT]
It turned out, to stop people from pursuing him, he destroyed the port just below the red line. So, the world government did what they do best. They increased their bounties. Now Dobby had 8 Billion and Alexander had 15 Billion Bounty on their heads.
Alexander put down his newspaper while he sat at the beach. In front of him, all the children were happily playing in the water.
"Ahaha, Noodles, come here, we will brush you" Rina and Gali lead the children on their mission to give a good cleaning to Noodles.
All of a sudden, a man walked up to him, he was one of the soldiers in his army. "Boss, these are the wanted posters. Please approve them before we release them out."
Alexander looked into them. The highest bounty he had added was of the five Elders. Each had 10 billion berries. But he added that the bounty could also be paid in gold.
Big Mom, Whitebeard, and Shanks were awarded 5 billion Berries on their heads. All of their commanders/children had 2 billion each.
Then there were all the members of CP0 and CP9, each having a five hundred million bounty with their Chiefs having nine hundred million.
Then there were small bounties. A total of three thousand men and women had a five hundred thousand to a million bounty. They all were slave traders and their punishment was death so their poster had 'Only Dead' words.
"Yeah, these are right. Spread them around the world." He ordered.
His Golden Justice Army didn't have any headquarters so the world government could never do anything against him, this also let Alexander have better control over the sea. If anyone completes the bounty then they could go to any personnel of his army and ask for bounty.
"GOMU GOMU NO..."
Out of nowhere, Alexander heard the sound and turned around. He saw Luffy doing something with his rubber arms and trying to projectile himself onto the back of Noodles. But one of his hands slipped and he came straight at Alexander like a bullet.
Alexander caught him with one hand. "Be careful, kid."
"Haha, I don't fear anything. I'm going to be the pirate king someday." Luffy proudly announced, he had been saying that since the day he heard the story of Roger the Pirate King. Not knowing that just a few feet away from him the real Pirate king was sleeping on the recliner.
"Kid, by the time you grow up, the seas would not have pirates. Besides, pirates kill and rob people. Are you aiming to become that?" Alexander asked.
"No, I will become a good Pirates." Luffy immediately answered.
Alexander just let him go. By now he had understood that arguing with Luffy was pointless. The kid was more stubborn than anyone he had ever seen.
...
Just like that, a few years passed. In those years, Alexander's Bounty increased to 20 Billion. This was because he infiltrated the Marineford like it was a walk in the park and stole away all the devil fruit the Marine had collected or bought. This was a huge setback for the World Government and angered a lot of Celestial Dragons because now they could not have fun by force-feeding their servents the devil fruits. The Celestial Dragons had stopped buying Slaves now due to fear and now paid people to work. But behind the scenes, they still treated people like slaves.
Alexander went back to the island and started giving his trusted people the fruits. He honestly didn't know why an amazing thing like devil fruit wasn't used for doing good.
He gave fruits like grow-grow fruit to Lami. She liked growing flowers so he gave her the fruit that could influence plants.
Then there was Earth-Earth fruit that Sabo ate. It gave him the ability to manipulate or become Earth. A fruit named Op-Op fruit was very useful for doctors so Law ate it because his dream was to become a doctor. Many more fruits were lying with him. More fruits than the people who could eat them.
Currently, Alexander was on his way back from Ohara. Little Robin had now grown to her teens. She wanted to set sail to outside and have her adventure. So he brought her along, deciding to train her first.
"Robin sweety, no not like this. You first concentrate and imagine and then punch." Alexander showed her how to use armament haki
"But grandpa, this is so hard to do, I'd rather go and read books" She cutely said.
"Patience my child, and do you want to make the same mistake as your mother? If you don't get stronger then not only your life will be in danger but your future friends' too." His words did magic and she seriously started practicing. Her memory of burning Ohara was still alive.
*BELLS*
"Boss, there's a pirate ship standing still nearby. What are the orders?" A sailor informed.
"Who are the pirates?" Alexander asked.
"They are sun pirates. Their captain, Fisher Tiger, has a two hundred and thirty million bounty on his head." The sailor answered.
"Hahaha, isn't he the one who freed the slaves of Mary Geoise. That man deserves a drink. Anchor the ship here." Then he looked back at the concentration of Robin.
"Robin, wanna come with me?" He asked.
Robin opened her eyes in a second and jumped on his back without even asking. She was always up for an adventure.
"Hahaha, alright let's go."
...
The Sun Pirates was a group solely made of ex fishermen slaves or just normal fishermen. They loathed humans because no matter how much they tried to act good, humans always differentiated against them.
Currently, on the deck of the ship, a scene was going on. A small human girl, just 11 years old, was thrown out of the captain's cabin.
Fisher Tiger came out with furrowed brows. "It is okay to cry! Don't think we're like those Celestial dragons."
Then he proceeded to throw his gun into the sea. The girl was shocked by the scene. The gun was deeply implanted in her mind as it was used to scare her every day in the past.
Fisher Tiger looked back at his men, "WE WON'T KILL ANYBODY!"
This was enough to make the little girl understand that she was not a slave anymore and that no one would kill her if she cried. And that was exactly what she did, she cried as loud as possible, releasing all the pent up emotions from all those years of torture.
"CAPTAIN, A STEEL WARSHIP!" one of them shouted.
But that was exactly when Alexander appeared on their deck, "Haha, nothing to worry about. I'm not gonna hurt you. How are you, kid? Remember me?"
Fisher Tiger looked at Alexander with respect. Fisher Tiger didn't remember many humans in his life who were unbiased against his kind, but Alexander was the only human that he did remember. He now respected him even more as he was fighting the world government directly.
"We finally meet again, Old man. Thank you for the chocolates that day, drop your swords everyone, he's a friend," Fisher Tiger ordered his crew, showing an extremely rare smile.
"Haha, it's Grandpa or just old man for you, and now is not the time for chocolates, it's time for drin..." Alexander suddenly stopped speaking as he noticed a girl crying loudly.
Alexander thought she must be spooked by the Fish-men because that was a common occurrence due to human ignorance and the lack of teaching. He went to her and tried to comfort her.
"Hey, little one. Why are you crying?..." He warmly asked.
But for some reason, she got even more scared after seeing him and ran to Fisher Tiger and hid behind his legs.
Alexander scratched his beard seeing that unusual scene, "What happened to her, Tiger?"
*Sigh*
Fisher Tiger started to tell him the story, "Her name is Koala, she's 11 years old. She was abducted at a very small age and was sold as a slave to Celestial Dragons, god knows what harm they brought to her small mind. She became so mentally stressed that she stopped crying and only smiled no matter what, in fear of getting killed by their guns if she cried.
"She probably ran away from Mary Geoise 3 years ago when I burned that place down. She was trapped on an island with some other slaves for 3 years and they gave her to us to get her back to her home. I just made her realize that she is safe now." Fisher Tiger explained to him, he was getting emotional too.
Alexander just sat down on the floor with his legs crossed and his shoulders slanted down. ~I should've done something earlier. At least about this slavery.~
He looked back up at Koala with a sad face, imagining what mental trauma, sad and hopeless days she went through, he thought that if she escaped 3 years ago when she was just 8, then at what age was she abducted and made a slave? A child of her age should have spent her time with her family, living innocent days filled with love and fun.
~Poor child, her childhood was stolen from her by those good for nothing garbage.~ He cursed.
"It's okay, child. I'm not like those bad people. I am in fact their biggest enemy and death, soon. Come, see these beautiful flowers." He warmly called her to him.
Koala finally showed an expression a child should have on her face, she slowly but carefully walked to him and took the colorful flowers.
"Robin, please play with her for a while, until I come back." He instructed.
"Where are you going, Grandpa?" Robin inquiry.
Alexander kept on looking at little Koala smiling at the flowers with a sad face, surprising to even himself, a tiny tears rolled down his cheek from under his sunglasses that covered his eyes, "They took her childhood, now they will pay the price. A mistake has been made, 1 out of 5 fingers needs to be cut."
He just said that and flew away. Not many people understood the meaning behind his words but Robin, Fisher Tiger, and Jinbe did. They understood what five fingers he was talking about.
