Chapter - 5 [ Plot Manipulation! ]
"How did you know about them, Ash?"
Hearing Orna, Ash smiled and said,
"There is nothing that I don't know of. I know the history, present and future of this world."
Orna was shocked by this. But she didn't distrusted him like before. If he said he can do that, then that must be true.
Ash then commanded in his mind.
'Use Plot Manipulation and make sure Nami doesn't meet with Luffy and instead being caught by Hina. Later, she will be forced to talk about her village which has similar story to what I told Hina. Hearing this, she will ask Nami if her village is Cocoyashi village. And if so Hina will go to rescue her together with Smoker. Later, they will fight Aarlong and his pirates and win. But instead of catching them, Aarlong and his group who are weakened will be killed by Nami and the villagers. After rescuing the village, Hina tells Nami about me, but not my name. She just tells Nami that a man riding a mysterious ship gave her the information about rat of Navy, and she was just went to Cocoyashi village to capture him. But on the way, they also found about Aarlong and decided to stop them.'
'For truth, it will be mere coincidence that Hina was able to hear about the information and got approval from headquarters of Navy.'
[ Successful! The plot at which Nami will meet Luffy is changed. After stealing the map and treasure from Buggy the Clown, Nami escaped via a small boat. And now she's captured by Hina on her way to Cocoyashi village. ]
Hearing Julene's words, Ash smiled and nodded. Although he doesn't want to make her his, he just wanted to see if she will change. If her attitude is worthy, he will definitely make her his, even if he has to make her fall in love with him. If she is not upto his expectations, he will check and see if Luffy get another navigator and if not, he will manipulate plot once more and let her join Luffy.
'Ah well, but we still have time before going to Cocoyashi village. And Luffy will be going to Syrup Village. There he will recruit Usopp. After that, they will get going merry. Next will be Baratie, the moving sea resturant where Sanji will join the straw hats. So, instead of going to rescue Nami and the villagers, Luffy and his team will be going to Cocoyashi village normally. But unlike the original, Nami and the villagers won't probably welcome them because of their identities as pirates, even if they are good ones. Though they probably will learn about her capabilities as a navigator, she will refuse to go with them.'
[ That's correct, Master. Despite being not using your powers to see through the future, you guessed everything perfectly even if you knew about the plots from your previous life. ]
'It's just a guess. For now, let's go to our destination.'
"Where is our next Destination Lene?"
As he allowed her to control the Ship, Ash already explained to Orna about Julene. Of course not being his system AI, but a helper AI of the ship. So, she wasn't startled when he suddenly said that.
In a sweet womanly voice which is her true voice, Julene said,
« Our next destination is an island called Chefs Heaven. As the name States, it is a paradise of chefs from all over the world even grand line and new world. They use this island to buy rare ingredients and even buy slaves to groom them into capable chefs for their stores or buisness. There are auctions which is known to the famous people of the world. »
"I see... Such an island wasn't known in the original. May be this is fine. After all everything will be a surprise. Let's go to this island, Lene."
« Understood. »
Thus his ship continued to move towards the Chef's Heaven.

While Ash was enjoying his journey, a orange haired girl was crying fake tears at the pink haired beauty who captured her easily.
"P-Please let me go! I didn't do anything wrong?"
The pink haired beauty, Hina rolled her eyes at the orange haired girl.
"Hina caught you with evidence! You tried to steal. And from who? One of the navy cadet! And you are acting innocent?"
The orange haired girl was one of the main heroines of One Piece, Nami.
"I-I'm not acting!"
Hina wasn't moved by her attitude. Her intuition told her that this girl was lying to her.
"Tell me the truth and I'll think about not taking you to prison. And I have buisness in Cocoyashi village after this drama! So talk!"
Hearing the familiar name of the village, Nami flinched and asked,
"W-Why are you going to Cocoyashi village!?"
Hearing her outbreak, Hina was suspicious. Then she remembered Ash's words. A girl who was forced to be a pirate.
'Could it be her?'
"Are you a member of Cocoyashi? Perhaps you know about Aarlong pirates?"
Hearing another familiar name, this time Nami's face darkened. This made Hina understand that it must be this girl who she was searching for.
"Well, whatever. I'm going to Cocoyashi to capture Aarlong and his pirate group."
Hearing this, Nami's eyes widened in shock. Of course only she knew about the terrifying strength of fishmen compared to humans.
But she didn't know Hina wasn't a normal human but also a devil fruit user. Besides together with her, there was a man wearing navy uniform and using two cigarettes. It was smoker!
"Hina-sama, we will reach Cocoyashi in three hours! What is your orders?"
Hina nodded and looked towards her partner,
"Smoker, I'll leave Aarlong and his gangs to you. As for the navy, you can leave them to me."
Smoker nodded and a girl who wore glasses near him, Tashigi also had a determined expression. This time, Nami who was too shocked to talk suddenly asked,
"W-Wait?! You are going to fight that madman..!? Are you an idiot..?! Fishmen are stronger than humans!"
But Hina was indifferent to her words. She said,
"As I thought. You are indeed from Cocoyashi. And if I'm correct, then you must be the girl who was forced to join them, right?"
Nami was shocked. How did this woman know about her?
She warily looked at Hina and asked,
"Who are you? Why do you know that?"
She knows that she can't hide it from this woman. Not because she can't act, but she was a navy. And if she knows this means she found it after knowing about the navy trash in Cocoyashi.
"I got some information from a certain man. He told me that the navy has some rats in it. And one of the examples he told me is about your village. So, I'm going to capture the unnecessary rats in navy and also bring Aarlong down."
Nami was suspicious. Who is this man who told this woman about her village. And not only that, if what her guess is true then that man must be the one who also told this woman about her past.
"Who is that?"
"He is a handsome young man riding a mysterious ship. That's all I can say."
Nami was in deep thoughts. If they can defeat Aarlong and his gang, Nami will be of course happy. But, if they can't, then won't her presence with them will incur Aarlong's wrath on the village?
"Hey, when you fight him, don't let them see me! If they see me, they will kill the entire village after you lose!"
Hina nodded and said,
"So be it. But don't worry about our loss. After all even if I can't defeat him on my own, with smoker here, it is made sure."
Nami could only nod.
