34 Pincroft Isle

After the tournament, top 20 people brought to the Pincroft Isle. In this 20 people, there were, Durwin, his sister, Caribou, Bow Master. After the tournament, 20 people had to line up to take challenges. In case of badly matches people might not get in first 20, they decided to let top 20 take challenges. Weak, Lucky guy in group A, lost to Durwin's Sister, Lillie, thus lost his chance.

After everything done, we were given day to prepare. I made my preparations in Btala Island. I made a clone and left him there, so, I could also carry on my initial plans, hunting pirates. As for my original body, still looking like Minato, I went to docks to take Templars Ship.

As my original body was on the ship going to the Pincroft Isle, my clone went to the Marine Base to take Wanted Posters. There were at least 100 of them. I checked each of them and eliminate two who had gone to grand line. Eustass Kid and Bonney. I stroll the island and made my way to docks to see if there is any pirate ship. When I reached the Docks, there was ship with a black flag. On weirdly smiling skull there were two ugly sideburns. I recognized it immediately, this was Caribou's pirate ship. This was a good start.

After I learned that, Caribou was one of the Second Generation Supernova, I went around and ask if nobody knows about them. But to my surprise even the agent from World Government knew about it, simply don't care. After I took bounty posters, I saw Caribou and his brother on posters. Caribou had 60 Million of bounty, while his brother Coribou had 50 Million. They were both cruel and bloodthirsty, enjoy the killing and all other wicked acts.

I hide in the alley and made a clone and destroy it immediately, to let my original body to know what I discovered.

On the Ship

I was sitting on the deck, watching seagulls to fly over the sea, and dive to eat fishes. Durwin and his sister come to my side and leaned on rails as well. I could see they were trying to be friend with me, but they were shy. I took the initiative and said "Hello. I'm Minato Namikaze." stretch out my hand to shake theirs.

"I'm Durwin Fane, this is my sister Lillie Fane. Nice to meet you. You are really strong." said Durwin, pointing his sister.

"I'm not as good as you with the sword, I just had a chance to come upon other techniques." I said with honesty. I was better than Lily with the sword, but Durwin was way better than me.

"You are being modest. Your Sword Ki is so strong, and the thing you made with fire. I can't believe you even won against a logia user." said Lily, finally talked.

"I thought it might work." I didn't know what to say. If Crow didn't tell me, Caribou was Swamp Man, I would never guess it. Durwin spoke next "I teach my sister our Sword Technique. You can join us if you like. I don't know if we will have time on the Isle, but if we do, I don't mind spar with you."

"I would be glad to learn from you." as I said that, I jolted with information i received. I excused myself and went to the toilet and made a new clone, while flashed to other one in the Btala Island.

Btala Island

After I reached my clone, I disperse him too. I instructed my clone to let me know before the fight. My clone could fight but in case of taking damage he might disperse, so, I decided to fight with my real body all the time. I walked to the ship slowly and send a sealed paper through a window on the side. As soon as the paper went through the window, I flashed inside. There were two people cleaning, I knock them out with one hit each. I climb to the deck where pirates were sitting. I looked at the fat man. Had weird green hair, as if chameleon was sitting top of his head. He had a long sleeved shirt like his brother. There were dozen other men too.

I took out sealed kunai and throw it to pirate sitting next to Coribou. Kunai pierced his neck and I flashed instantly and made hand seals to create genjutsu to put them sleep. Only Coribou was awake. He had a shovel in his hand and attacked me with his full force. I dodge with a sidestep and punched him in the gut. But his fat blocked all the damage. I draw Very Good Sword and insert my lightning Chakra. Lighting Chakra makes sword sharp and makes target paralyzed. I swing my sword and he blocked with his shovel. He electrified instantly and lost his grip. My sword cut through shovel and his shoulder altogether.

Now I cut both brothers shoulder. I actually felt good. I bind them with ropes and Coribou with chains while creating another clone to send him to the Marine Base to fetch some soldiers. This was easier than I thought. After Marine Commander arrived looked at me with surprise, and invite me to Base. I checked him with Glasses of Confucius after I made sure he had no Templar sign I went to Base. In the base, I also used glasses to check everybody. As Kubo said, Templars were everywhere. I noticed at least 2 dozen Marine, were Templars.

I went to the Rear Admirals room with Commander. Rear Admiral's room was vintage looking room, had a french window looking straight to the ocean. The day was clear and the reverse mountain could be seen. Ships were coming and going. There was a room full of bookshelves filled with myriad books. Behind dark, wood table sitting middle-aged man with a mustache. He stood up and greeted me as soon as I walked in. I checked him and all room, they were clean. I could work with this guy.

After tea ordered, we started to talk business. His nameplate was on the table "Adelfo Stanton"

"Hitomi, I heard you from Vice Admiral Morton. I was told, there was a talented Bounty Hunter in East Blue and he would go to North Blue next. But you are here now. Both seem impossible to me, but as far as I concern you and your guild are worth supporting." said with a smile.

"Rear Admiral Stanton. I thank you for your support. I planned to go to North Blue but I decided otherwise for some reasons. I have my means to travel in this world, but they are the secret way of my family, I ask for your forgiveness. I plan to start my business here too, as soon as possible. As I did in East Blue, will open a branch of Black Wing. I hope to work with you too." I said in my manner. Those who don't act nice, I will be worst. Those who are nice, I will be the nicest man.

"By all means. As much as its shame to admit. We can't handle seas by ourselves. Pirates creating ruckus under our nose. That is why we put the bounty on their heads. We need bounty hunters."

"Then, I won't stand on ceremony. I'm here to collect the Coribou's Bounty. I wanted to catch Caribou too but, World Government agents took him away." I wanted to ask Rear Admiral if he knew this.

His eyes flashed and hand made a fist "Yes, they did. I don't know what to say, but we got an order from headquarters, so there wasn't anything I could do about it." said with hidden rage.

"Anyway, this is check for 100 million. 50 million for Coribou, the other 50 is for ship and rest of the crew. Keep up the good work."

I took the check and went to buy a house in the dock. Time to create a branch in South Blue.
