Briar in TottoLand

Soon as we exited through the door we reappeared inside the All World Goods in TottoLand.

Though this one was a mix between a large superstore and now an Amusement park as well as after setting up shops across the world before I left last time I had left I had gotten the ability to upgrade my stores to Lvl. 2.

At level 2 the amount of items increased along with devil fruits to purchase as well as editing the store to fit the preferences of the people where it's located.

And for the TottoLand store with the sucess of the MegaArcade I decided to add on an entire amusement park inside the store as it expanded to be about a super mall in size similar to the Mall of American back in my world.

"Oh? Welcome back young master." Archer says as he turns back to see me return to this world as he gives me a nod.

"Archer, how have things been?" I say though Briar shoots off to go play and have fun on her own.

"Good, all is good, everywhere in the world is enjoying the stores and loves our products…. However we have gotten the attention of several celestial dragons who have come to the store in Shabody."

"Oh? And how did that turn out?" I said before I sat beside him at the counter as it was probably interesting.

"Oh well Most actually didn't start anything and we're heavily interested in getting Homunculuses as servants, slaves or even bodyguards, though one particular female Celestial Dragon that surprisingly didn't look like a pig as all the rest wanted me as her personal butler." He said with an amused voice.

"Oho? And I could tell it didn't work, but what was the after math then?"

"Well with the upgrade to the store there weapons didn't work and when several Vice Admirals showed up to take me by force they soon realized that there Devil Fruits and Haki had no effect whatsoever while in the store as I easily dealt with them with ease, no one died but a few broken arms and legs kept them down, but to make things not escalate I made a deal with the Female Celestial Dragon and showed her the creation of a copy of myself in Homunculus form, of course not as powerful as the original but had my skills nonetheless, skills I had when I was human that is and not a heroic spirit of course, though it was my younger self in my late twenties but to say it all ended in satisfaction for everyone involved at least." He said before putting the cup he had Ben wiping down away before reaching in his vest.

"Although I did get a bounty for injuring several Vice Admirals after all." He said as he put it down on the counter and pushed it to me.

Archer 'The Barkeep'

Wanted Dead or Alive

200,000,000

*******

(N) As this is still Rogers era 200 million is actually a lot for the time compared to much further in the future around Luffy's time.

"The Barkeep? They really suck at coming up with titles don't they?" I say shaking my head as I see this, though I see a familiar set of long Pink hair approaching us with her signature laugh.

"MaMa MaMa! Hifumi! It's good to see you around again, one of my subordinates mentioned you returned so I had to stop on by!" She said all happy like as she sat down at the counter with us.

"Oh? I didn't realize you got a bounty Archer! What did you do to get one this big right off the bat?" LinLin said as she looked at the Bounty Poster, it's a bit difficult to get news in the New World Currently and most news that finally shows up is usually a few weeks old compared to the four seas and the Paradise side of the Grandline, mainly do to the heavy weather conditions and strong magnetic interference making it hard for News Coo's to arrive on islands in the New World.

Though Knowing Morgan's he will figure something out soon enough as it's cutting in his profit margins with him not getting into the market that is the New World.

"Oh I just had a issue with a Celestial Dragon who wanted me as her personal butler, and since I denied her she got the marines involved, but they decided to want to fight inside the store and let's just say it didn't end well for them, but I compromised and gave her a homunculus version of my younger self which she loved and she willingly paid for before leaving, but since I hurt those little marines precious pride I got a bounty as a result." He said with a sigh as he shook his head which got a laugh out of her.

"MaMa MaMa! That's hilarious! But it's good you showed those Hypocrites what for!" She said before taking the Bourbon handed her and downing it in one gulp.

"Puuaah! Heh, so how long are you staying this time Hifumi?" She said with an eager look on her face which made me just scratch my head.

"Well really I was just stopping by as my friend from the moon wanted to come down to the world and have fun as she was bored back up there." I said as I kept up the lie about the moon, though it's not completely untrue as there are space pirates and actual people living up on this worlds moons after all as per Enel's cover story in the One Piece Manga.

"Oh I see…." She said with a genuine sad look on her face as there isn't really anything going on until next year for her birthday party as well as him being too busy to go to her tea parties after all.

"Yeah I might not be back for another year or two, a bunch of things came up on the moon, and if I wasn't bugged by her I probably wouldn't have come back because of everything happening, but I was hoping you'd take care of her for me? And mind you she's not weak in fact she's extremely strong and easily could rip a person apart with her hands alone, but she hasn't really learned Haki yet so that's a bit of a downside but her claws can still make someone covered in armament haki bleed but it's only at the level of flesh wounds after all." I go onto explain and it is true as I tested it out and her claws can cut through the skin of people covered in Armament Haki but can't get any deeper to hit anything vital so she couldn't kill Haki users but only give them flesh wounds at most.

"Hmmm…. We'll she could be a good addition to my crew, if your fine with that, that is?" She thought it over and nodded and with her around she would hear more about the Moon and Hifumi's life up there through her.

But fortunately Briar knows what she can say and what she shouldn't say, but LinLin will still hear about things about the Moon, I'll make sure that Briar calls Earth the Moon instead of Earth with Archers help.

"That's fine, and thank you LinLin for taking care of her while she's here, but I need to head on back so I'll see you around." I say as I get up and start to leave.

"Wait Hifumi! I got one more thing to talk about!" She called out which made me stop and turn around.

"Yes?"

"Well…. Are you interested in marrying one of my daughters?" She asked with a big smile on her face.

"…."

"…. Pfft!" Archer tried to hold back his laugh but couldn't.

My eye twitched while hearing that, "LinLin isn't your eldest Daughter only 14?" I remember her eldest daughter is the second oldest behind Perospero who is 15 now.

"No no not Campote, besides she doesn't have plans on getting married, said so herself, I was thinking about my 3rd Daughter Amande, though she is only 12 right now I can tell she will get her beauty from me, minus her neck being a 'bit' longer than a normal , but she has mentioned to me that when she grows up she wants to Marry Big Brother Hifumi, and who am I to deny her?" She said with a Smirk as Archer was turned away as he was stifling his laughter while cleaning a glass cup.

'…. Is it because I gave her iconic big hat and that I found her long neck to be cute that one time?…. Although her adult self is my type of women after all but still….'

"That's a bit too early, how about we talk about this when she's older okay? Like when she's 17 or 18 so let's come back to this in a few years alright?" I say while not confirming or denying that I'll marry Amande or not.

'I should probably get married or be at least engaged to Mikan first before I think about that…'

But hearing me not say no made her smile as she laughed, "MaMa MaMa! I see! That's fine then! We can talk about this when shes a bit older, but I kept you around long enough so I'll see you around Hifumi, I'll go see what your friend is up to now." She said before waving and leaving me alone.

I just shook my head as I began to leave, "Take care of yourself Archer."

"You too young master." He said with a chuckle while I just shook my head as I walked through the door leading me back home.

Now someone mentioned this but would you guys actually be interested in the Side Stories that are going on with Fortunate Son as he helps people from many other animes/mangas who genuinely need help while not around Hifumi?

I would also think about making Briars Adventures in One Piece as well, mind you both of these wouldn't happen too often but they would be sprinkled here and there between any major world missions that is though I plan on having Briar come with him into the next world as she wouldn't stand out like a sore thumb there even if she had her normal looks that weren't modified by Hifumi.

But that's it, oh and I'm at work as the posting of this and because of the bad weather it has been especially dead here so I might upload another chapter later, no promises though.
