Chapter 108
[Ken P.O.V
1 week later]
I'm holding a stack of wanted papers. The whole world already knows about what we did to Impel Down. I started reading through them.
(An: The number between the brackets is the old bounty.)
[Brogy the Red Ogre 300 (200) million berry bounty Dead or Alive]
[Dorry the Blue Ogre 300 (200) million berry bounty Dead or Alive]
[Oimo 150 (75) million berry bounty Dead or Alive]
[Kashii 150 (75) million berry bounty Dead or Alive]
They didn't do much, but just them being giants is enough to raise their bounties. But it also seems like they're taking us way more seriously.
[Urouge 100 (50) million berry bounty Dead or Alive]
[Perona 90 million berry bounty Dead or Alive]
It seems like Moria has told them a couple of things about Perona. She hasn't shown any of her abilities in battle. So they shouldn't give her such a high bounty.
[Doha Ittanka II 300 million berry bounty Dead or Alive]
[Dobby Ibadonbo 270 million berry bounty Dead or Alive]
[Catarina Devon 400 million berry bounty Dead or Alive]
[Sanjuan Wolf 350 million berry bounty Dead or Alive]
[Shiryu 310 million berry bounty Dead or Alive]
This is to be expected from Level 6 prisoners. I would even argue that they're too low. But that doesn't matter for now.
[Brook 130 (33) million berry bounty Dead or Alive]
[Paulie 70 (25) million berry bounty Dead or Alive]
[Van Augur 125 (25) million berry bounty Dead or Alive]
Even though they haven't done that much, their bounties have risen a fair amount. Now, I'm really curious about my bounty.
[Nico Robin 170 (111) million berry bounty Dead or Alive]
[Kage Robert 400 (250) million berry bounty Dead or Alive]
I smiled. It seems like they have finally caught onto how useful his fruit is. And the danger he brings with it.
[Demon Sheriff Laffitte 369 (169) million berry bounty Dead or Alive]
And Laffitte is not left out. But why does he always have 69 in his bounty?
[Masked Deuce 330 (150) million berry bounty Dead or Alive]
[Inferno Fist Ace 500 (270) million berry bounty Dead or Alive]
[Sabo 550 (220) million berry bounty Dead or Alive]
It is good to see that their bounties have been increased by a lot. Sabo has surpassed Ace, and now he has Dead or Alive, instead of only Alive. It seems like they don't care about him being a noble anymore. Now let's see what my bounty is.
[Azure Ken 810 (600) million berry bounty Dead or Alive]
(An: Just as a reminder, bounties aren't calculated only by strength.)
I smiled.
'This is only the beginning.'
[Dadan P.O.V.]
We were all eating when Woop Slap and Makino came storming in.
"What the hell are you two doing!? Can't you see that we're eating!"
They didn't say anything and showed us three wanted papers.
"WHAT!?"
All of our jaws hit the floor.
"Hahaha, it seems like I have to work much harder!" said Luffy
"Are you sure those are real? That bounty means that they're already bigshots."
"They came with the newspaper, so there is no way they can be fake." said Makino
"Tsk, those bastards. They're making me so proud."
I started crying without realizing it, and everyone also started crying for some reason.
[Kureha P.O.V.]
I'm busy making some medicine when Chopper came running in.
"Doctor, look!"
He showed me the bounties of the Azure Pirates.
'So that brat wasn't all talk. Tsk. Screw him. Because of him, I'm stuck teaching idiots that he wants to have join his crew. Why the hell would he even need a medic team. 1 is enough.'
"Doctor? Aren't you happy?"
"Of course not! Now I can't slack off, or he'll come for my head! Now get out before I kick you out."
"AAHH!"
He ran out, screaming.
'But I guess I do owe him for all that he did. Just by having his flag up, there has been no pirate on this island ever since.'
"Sigh."
'I guess I'll go and teach those idiots more seriously now. At least not all of them are helpless.'
[Nefertari Cobra P.O.V.]
I'm sitting in the throne room together with Vivi, and we're looking at the bounty posters of the Azure Pirates.
"They're really amazing. I knew they were strong, but this is beyond strong." said Vivi
'I'm glad that I sent over the other 500 million. I don't want to imagine what he would have done to me if I didn't.'
"They sure are. It was a good choice to trust them."
"But what do you think the Marines will do? They might send someone strong after him." asked Vivi
"They already tried that."
"Huh?"
"They sent all the Admirals, all the strongest Vice-Admirals plus 20 warships, but they were already gone. No one could even find a trace of them. This is a secret, so don't go talking too much."
"Wow! They sure are awesome."
"That's something even Gol D. Roger couldn't do easily. But enough about this. Let's go and have diner."
"Yes, father."
[Neptune P.O.V.]
I'm looking at a stack of bounty papers.
'This guy may actually be able to do it. Becoming a Yonko. I'm glad that I befriended such a person. But I can't have any of my kids see this. Shirahoshi will cry because she misses them, and the other three will want to fight them.'
"Dad, what is that." asked Shirahoshi
"AAH! It's nothing!"
I quickly hid it away. She pouted.
"Not fair."
"Huh, what is this?" asked Fukaboshi
I looked at my sons, who were holding the stack of bounty posters.
'How did they get that!?'
"It's those bastards!" x3
They threw the stack of bounties on the floor and started stamping on it.
"Ken!" screamed Shirahoshi
She started crying.
"He hasn't even called me once!"
Shirahoshi is crying, and my sons are cursing at the Azure Pirates.
'Oh no, this was the worst possible outcome!'
[Shanks P.O.V.]
"810 million, huh. I definitely didn't have that much at his age."
"Hahaha, at this rate, he'll surpass you." said Yasopp
"But he'll surpass you first!"
"I don't care about my bounty! And at the end of the day, I won't be fighting him."
"Are you saying that I'll lose!?"
"He'll just throw you a barrel of sake, and you'll admit defeat."
"I do like sake."
"See, I bet you think it's a good plan."
"Stop it, Yasopp. There is no need to state the obvious." said Beckman
"Even you! How dare you betray me like that!"
"Hahaha, sorry, Captain."
"But to be honest, they're a threat. I wonder if we'll have to fight them to the death when they challenge us." said Yasopp
"That won't happen. We're friends, after all. It would be more like a spar than a real fight. I just hope that we can have a feast afterward." said Lucky Roux
"Hahaha, let's forget about the possibility of them becoming our enemy and have a celebration for them!"
"YEAH!!!"
