Vol. 04 Ch. 09 – Unexpected

After hearing an explanation of Arthur's plan, Monet did not hesitate to eat the devil fruit. She was very happy because she gained new strength to be able to help Arthur and the others. Monet began to add training to the use of devil fruit in her training menu, with the ability of the Swap-Swap fruit that Monet has the potential to become a great assassin because it can move places without sound. Arthur trained and advised on the use of Swap-Swap fruit like Minato Namikaze the 4th Hokage from the Naruto anime. Because of that, Monet's main weapon is daggers which have been marked by it. With the increasing ability of Monet to use this devil fruit, Arthur can move from one island to another if he intends to have a territorial island in the New World later.

Corazon who made it to the nearest island directly contact Doflamingo regarding his safety. He also did not forget to give information that he got about Arthur to Fleet Admiral Sengoku. Information about the power of his devil fruit, their activities looking for Poneglyphs in North Blue and also Vergo disguised as a marine. But because he had no evidence of Vergo, Sengoku could do little more than ordering some personnel to monitor the movements of new marine members. When getting information from Corazon, who was with the Sengoku in the room were Garp, Tsuru, and Zephyr the Marine members with the highest office after him and he trusted.

Garp: "Bwahahaha ... that child is very interesting."

Sengoku: "Sigh ... Why did he have to choose North Blue when we were about to carry out the transaction? Tsuru, what do you think? "

Tsuru: "From all the information I have gotten about ART pirates, they are more focused on searching Poneglyph and never making a fuss when buying supplies on the islands they come to except when bounty hunters who don't know anything attack them first. "

Zephyr: "So they are dangerous for the World Government but not for the people."

Sengoku: "Will their presence this time influence our plans?"

Tsuru: "As long as there is nothing to interest him there is no problem. But I was more worried about the Vergo that Corazon said. There is no Vergo name in our members' data, so maybe he used a false name. He can be a factor in the failure of our plan. "

Sengoku: "Tsuru, after this I want you to go straight to North Blue with the excuse of going after the ART pirates so Doflamingo doesn't know about our plans. Kong ordered us to focus more on this mission first before going to this Arthur boy. But if you have the chance then bring him to our side. "

Tsuru: "All right." Tsuru calmly answered orders from Sengoku while drinking tea in her glass.

Sengoku: "Garp, don't try going to North Blue." Sengoku turned his gaze towards Garp.

Zephyr: "He has come out."

Sengoku: "Garp!" It's no longer unusual for members of the marine to hear the scream of Fleet Admiral Sengoku because the hero of the marine is acting.

Four months have passed since the meeting of Arthur and Doflamingo, Monet has increasingly become expert in the use of her devil fruit. That way Arthur's plan will have a higher chance of success. He not only wanted to help Law, but he also wanted to make Law feel indebted to him by saving Corazon who was about to die. Arthur also continues to oversee the Barrels pirates who discovered Ope-Ope Fruit and will conduct transactions with the marine and lure Doflamingo next month. But right now Tsuru's warship was sailing after the ART pirates. Arthur, who had been preparing for the last month on the island of Rubeck, where he could see the island of Minion from there, had an uninvited guest.

Tsuru: "Arthur, you better give up and come with me so that I can cleanse the evil in your heart."

Arthur: "Tsuru-Bachan, it's been a long time. Hah, Gion-Nessan, do you want to come with me and become a member of my crew? " Arthur waved his hand towards Tsuru and Gion who were behind her.

Gion: "Oi, Arthur, don't make trouble anymore by playing pirates. Come home now, you can join the marine and I will be happy to be on the same ship with you. "

Arthur: "Tch, it's the same answer since I first met you who always follows Tsuru-Bachan everywhere."

Tsuru: "Nico Robin, aren't you afraid that the people who are beside you now will have the same fate as the Ohara scholars 10 years ago." Tsuru turned her attention to Robin.

Arthur: "Bachan, don't try to disturb my family." Arthur activates his Haoshoku Haki, which makes Tsuru's officer step back, including Gion.

Gion: "Ha ... Haoshoku Haki."

Tsuru: "It seems you have received the inheritance of D in your blood. I have to clean you immediately. "

Arthur: "How many times has Bachan 'wash' me but my decision has never changed? Please try again but don't dare to disturb them. " Arthur stepped forward to approach Tsuru.

Gion: "Are they so important to you that you want to fight the World Government and the Marine?"

Arthur: "Of course." Arthur gave a quick and certain answer.

Tsuru: "Sigh ... come here all of you."

Tsuru sighed and using her devil fruit ability to wash Arthur, Hancock, Robin, Baby-5, and Monet, leaving Sugar as a child. Hancock and the others did not fight because they saw Arthur who was silent when Tsuru approached them, they believed in Arthur's decision. And five clean and shiny clothespins suddenly appeared.

Everyone: "I'm been washed, I've been hung, but it feels refreshing."

Tsuru: "For some reason since the first time you knew the ability of my devil fruit you always asked to be washed. Sigh, don't make a fuss, if not then I will use all my ability to catch you, Arthur. " Tsuru started walking back to the ship leaving her clothesline.

Gion: "Sigh, since the first time we met, he was indeed a strange boy." Gion and the others followed Tsuru and did not ask about the decision he made.

Sugar: "Young master Arthur, Nessan." Sugar found it strange to see people who were washed and hung like clothespins.

* Purupuru Purupuru Gacha *

Marine: "Vice Admiral Tsuru, Barrels pirate headquarters is on fire. Some of us have gone to check it out. " The voice of the report through Den-Den Mushi was heard clearly.

Tsuru: "Idiot, once they find you, our plan will fail. Immediately check the coast, if there is someone suspicious report it immediately. "

The Marine: "Yes!"

* Gacha *

Arthur: "Bachan, immediately dry us!" Arthur immediately shouted after hearing Tsuru's conversation.

Tsuru: "You guys stay here."

Arthur: "Bachan!" Arthur shouted to change Tsuru's decision and the five of them were free from the previous conditions.

Tsuru: "So from the beginning, you were aiming for Doflamingo."

Arthur: "We'll talk later, Monet, to the ship right now." Arthur throws baby Den-Den Mushi and immediately disappears with the power of Monet's devil fruit.
