It is quite funny

The story started quite normally, with a kid suffering due to lack of sleep and working his job. It was the story of a regular boy trying to make ends meet. But then, things took a turn for the worse. One day, as he was heading back home, he passed by a girl. Somehow, without even looking back properly, from his peripheral vision, he noticed that a tractor was heading towards the girl, about to hit her.

Just on instinct, he jumped to save the girl. And thus, he died while 'saving' her. Little did he know, he didn't save the girl at all. The tractor was going to stop anyway, and he died not because he was hit by the tractor, but because of the shock.

How did the guy know that he died? Well, it was simple. It was told by the goddess who handled his afterlife, and the goddess was the character that Jinbe had gotten himself.

"Eh, so there is life after death?" Vivi asked.

"Seems like it. Isn't Brook a living example?" Nami said.

"Oye, bastard Brook, did you meet a beautiful woman after you died?" Sanji was pissed and shouted.

"Eh! Me? Really?" Brook was trying very hard to remember, but he couldn't recall any goddess. Meanwhile, the boy asked for the most ridiculous thing ever. He asked for the company of the goddess herself in the new world.

The story in question was Konosuba, and the character Jinbe got was Aqua. Yeah, the water goddess Aqua. Ken didn't know if he should laugh or pat Jinbe on the back for getting quite a good character. Because at the end of the day, Aqua was a goddess, and she was quite powerful. The story went on, and for the first time, everyone had a good time and laughed, and Jinbe got to live his life.

It was really hilarious.

Jinbe came out with a huge smile on his face, and everyone went in to give him a hug. The Straw Hats really liked Jinbe.

"Jinbe, now you have more control over water and can call on the biblical floods to destroy cities if required," Ken joked.

"Hahhahah. I always felt a bit weak outside water, but now I won't have to," Jinbe laughed. While they talked, the ship was slowly ascending from the depths of the ocean to the surface. It was quite a long journey, and it would take some time to reach the surface.

Meanwhile, as they traveled, Jinbe tried out his control over water and he was delighted to see that he could manipulate water in more intricate ways than ever before. But as they were surfacing, Vivi and Franky came forward with the new findings they had gathered.

"What is it?" Ken asked, as he could tell that Franky and Vivi wanted to say something.

"Well... It's like this... You know that we now monitor the navy channels. Right?" Franky asked.

"Yes. What of it?" Ken asked. The second character of Franky was Tony Stark himself, and thus, with the new character, he had actually progressed a lot, and Merry now had an AI system installed, with the server placed near the Motherbox.

This greatly assisted the ship, and Jinbe just had to ensure everything went as smoothly as possible.

"There is distinct chat on the radio that G5 is trying to catch us." Vivi said. 

"So?" Ken asked. G5 was a special division of navy and was mostly responsible for the New World. For the moment Smoker and Tashigi was supposed to be here since he had obsession with Luffy. Now that Ken thought about it, Vergo was also supposed to be with G5. 

It would be fun meeting him. 

"Well Smoker is with G5 and we heard talking about keeping an eye for us." Franky said. 

"Yes. But I still don't see the problem. He is just another navy doing what the navy should do." Ken replied. 

"That is what should be but there is another chatter in the log that somebody very high up the rank is waiting for you in one of the ships." Vivi said. 

"Really now. Then we should be more excited." Ken said. Both Franky and Vivi just shook their head. They approached Ken hoping that he would not be like the Captain but this guy spoke exactly like the Captain. Ken could see their thought process and said. 

"It will be fine. We are strong enough. Didn't you all train well."

Ken didn't really care as he himself knew how much each one had progressed. Maybe they weren't ready to face Kaido but dealing with other things could be easily done. After about a day of journey underwater, they were finally at the surface of the sea and suffice to say they were flabbergasted seeing the weather at the entrance. 

It was a hailstorm but the hails were of the size of their ships. Nami came in and rotated her hands and this led to the hails turn into water droplets and make it seem like it was normal rain. But of course the hails didn't stop and it went on. 

Nami got agitated and in the next moment her eyes shone in white light and the weather itself started to change one she entered the Avatar form. In order to have a proper impact air sphere started to form around her and she flew up while still being in Avatar mode. 

She called upon fire and water at the same moment and hit the clouds with the right amount of temperature which made a huge pressure difference and thus making the clouds vanish. 

"Wow.. Sugee-na. Our navigator is." Luffy was really impressed and clapped his hands. 

"Nami-swan in her warrior form. So beautiful." 

"I hope no lightning falls on her." Robin said. 

"Stop with the negativity already." Everyone shouted at her. 

"She had progressed a lot and is about to end her character. I wonder what she will get." Ken thought but he was really impressed how far she had made with the character.
