57 Trapped!

There are always things corner us. Be it problems we continually forced behind the back of our head, or a ticket we forget to pay. And when do time comes, it will corner us terribly, we will regret it with every cell in our body.

Me? This time, I have physically cornered.

Let's go back a few days ago.

I wanted to finish this cursed Quest as soon as possible because I was about to go berserk. Then I could jump to the next World, where at least I could try to forget my embarrassment, but to do that, I had to play smart. Templars Leader wasn't selected because he was oldest, but he was strongest. And not just with his psychical body, but his Haki and fruit power too.

Lucky for me, Templars weren't the real champions. They were merely cleaning squad, send to this world to help Champion before she comes. But, Leader was still something. He had one Duke Item, as far as I know, allow him to smite. Also, he has a Devil Fruit giving the power of genociding tribe lived in New World for ages. Most probably a Logia. Expecting him to use two kinds of Haki would not be absurd.

I was gathering information about this guy for ages. Still, I don't have complete information about him. All I know, he ate a powerful Devil Fruit, and he is Aquilo's father. But he was the leader before he came to this world. It only proves, he was strong even without Devil Fruit.

I lost my surprise attack after I took down their Holy Land. I waited for a week to start my operation because they will be waiting for me anyway. The reason I haven't attack for another week, because I relied on Jon too much lately. And I had to recharge his weekly time.

After a week, I went to the fight with Leader. This question bugged me since I came to the New World. Why was Templar Leader live outside of the Holy Land? To my surprise, the Templar Leader had a great friendship with World Nobles, and he was their guest. I should see that coming because Isi told me Templar had a connection with World Nobles. And could there be a better middleman than their Leader himself?

The thing I didn't know was, Templar Leader was a great schemer. To be able to trick new Fleet Admiral Akainu and three admirals to fight against me, was a great move. But this wasn't all! Lets first see how he deceived the admirals.

To use the excuse, Madara is a Ninja and can change his appearance, and Templars have inside information Madara will attack Mary Geoise to free all the slaves.

Mary Geoise was a gigantic palace, where all World Nobles and their slaves lived. Also is the capital of the World Government and the higher military authority Five Elders also live here.

Even if the Fleet Admirals didn't believe it, World Nobles had to power to force them to protect all Mary Geoise and no balls to stand on their feet. Thus three admirals set up the human shield with over ten vice admirals. But this wasn't a problem for me, because I could flash away, anytime I wanted.

Templars Leader was different from others. He chose as a Leader because he was strong, schemer and he knew lots of technique the others didn't. One of them was my bane, and every time pushed me to my corner, yet to this date, I never bother to learn the counter this very technique that forced me to despair all the time. Not that I didn't want to learn, but I couldn't. Even if there is a technique can unseal the area, it would take a lot of time and preparations, as it took to apply it in the first place.

I have sealed inside of a membrane again. I couldn't flash away as soon as I flashed in. I am trapped.

I could stand my ground, even after I come because I could transform into any shape. Just with this ability, as long as I was careful, I could live until I die, in this shit hole. The thing I did first when I noticed I couldn't flash away was the hide my identity. I found a single World Noble and killed him directly. I didn't hesitate first I already made an oath that I will kill anyone calls themselves, God. Second, the only way to put a human into the warehouse was to kill him first. Multidimensional spaces worked this way.

I killed a World Noble and took her appearance. I chose a woman because, in all worlds and all timelines, women have the freedom to don't permit the body search. Also, they can decide to stay away or be cranky because they have special conditions. What I am trying to say, women can have more freedom. It is probably boobs. They create wonders.

I spend one and half day without blowing my cover, yet the manhunt was still going on. Templar Leader was leading Vice Admirals while Admirals waiting for news. One of the new admirals, Fujitora a blind swordsman looked at me, for too long but eventually, he turned around and left. Crow told me, he was very good at Observation Haki, so, assuming he discovered my identity wasn't wrong.

One day, I approached him and told him that I wanted to speak with him privately. When we were alone inside the room, I asked him: "What do you know about Templars, infiltrated everywhere. Even inside the World Government?"

"Nothing." he honestly answered.

I started to tell him, the story about the Templars, without giving details about World Travel and Lords. I gave the notes I acquired from Aquilo, and I said I wasn't Madara but Templar Leader manipulated everyone about it. I was thinking I was off the hook, Fujitora surprised me with a question.

"If you are not Madara how can you change your appearance?" He is right. This is one of the Madara's signature moves.

"Madara is not the only Ninja out there. I am also a Ninja and want to put an end to this evil. You are free to believe me or attack me." I said without stepping back.

"Why do you tell me? I am an Admiral, stationed here to kill you." he also said honestly.

"I know you are dreaming about canceling Shichibukai system. You hate pirates, doesn't matter what. You are an honest man, and with your Observation Haki, you can easily see if I am lying or not." I used my ace in the hole. Fujitora always hated Shichibukai system. I don't know the details but, if there is an admiral would help me, it is Fujitora.

Fujitora gave the order to Vice Admirals to search the area away from Templar Leader. I could deal with him now, without worrying about Admirals. But even with the Marine support away, I can't kill him so easily. I have to find a way to deal with him more quickly.
