After Bellamy cuffed me with sea-stone handcuffs, his next step was escaping Fontaine.
I stood at the corner while Bellamy had some conversations with some thugs in the slums.
Looking at their way of talking, I knew the identity of those thugs.
"Wow, I don't know that you have some connections with underworld organizations."
Underworld organizations were organizations that did dirty things like human trafficking, kidnapping, assassination,…
Most of the slaves sold at the auction were all thanks to the underworld organizations.
As a modern citizen, I didn't like enslavement too much.
"Look like thing became interested" I muttered.
"What are you thinking?"
"Just some funny things came up in my mind. It's not important." I replied.
After the adventure with Bellamy, I will arrange for them to work with CP agents. I wondered what kind of expression they make.
I couldn't imagine it but I knew it would be fun.
"Alright. Whatever you are thinking. I need you to be absolutely silent. Are you clear?"
"Okay"
Pulling the hood to hide my face, Bellamy dragged me to the post where the guard would check papers and identity.
"Your name" The guard asked.
"Bellamy" he gave his papers and permission token to the guard.
The guard checked and found no problems with the papers.
"Wait. Who follows you" The guard inspected me with a scrutinizing gaze.
"My sister" Bellamy gave him fake papers and some money hidden in them.
The guard didn't check papers but he checked money.
After counting the money, the amount of it satisfied him and he let Bellamy and me pass the gate easily.
Walking for a while, Bellamy turned and asked me.
"Are you angry that your guard didn't save you? As a lord of Fontaine, you must feel very angry" After saying some words, he turned and laughed out loud.
"Maybe. But that doesn't matter to me now" I replied with a gentle smile. "The charm of money is very seduced. I know that feeling. Besides, I don't ask their loyalty."
"Ha ha ha. You know it then good. That is how the world works. No one can refuse the charm of money. What can you do now? Report to marine and expect them to save you. So scary" he provoked me and threw me onto a small ship.
Unbinding the rope, he immediately drove it away to avoid potential troubles.
"Marine. Nah. The only thing that I can depend on is my strength. In this dangerous world, it is better to have the strength to save yourself. Besides, someone forgets who was beaten like a sandbag before" I said and smiled wryly.
His face was seizure when I reminded his embarrassing defeat.
However, no one saw this so he could endure it and continue driving the ship.
"About the bribing thing, I already have a solution"
"And what is that solution?" Bellamy asked.
"Easy. Just replace them with robots. After all, robots don't need money" I said.
"Robot" Bellamy thought for a quite but he didn't know what this girl was talking about "Never hear before".
"It isn't popularized now but it will in the future. When that day comes, you will know" I replied.
"And that day is when," Bellamy asked.
"When" I smiled mysteriously and answered "After the internet spread around the world"
"Internet" He repeated my word like a robot.
He rolled his eyes and decided to ignore this girl for the rest of the journey.
"May I ask? Where are we going?"
"Dressrosa" Bellamy coldly replied.
"I see. I am very excited to visit that fake paradise"
While I and Bellamy had a journey to Dressrosa, a big fight also happened on the nameless island.
"Ace. The son of the pirate king, Roger. How can you be this weak?" Blackbeard provoked Ace who was injured after a few attacks.
"I am so disappointed. I thought it would be harder to defeat you but I was wrong. You are weaker than my expectation."
"Don't mention that name. My father is Whitebeard and always is Whitebeard" Ace said angrily.
"Don't reject the blood of pirate king running in your veins. Your haki, your talent, and your strength all come from your father. Only your appearance comes from your mother."
"I don't need his blood to stand on the top of the world" Ace denied Blackbeard's statement.
"I don't know you have Tsundere's side. It's a pity that you are not a woman or else, I will conquer you both outside and inside" Blackbeard laughed out loud.
"Oh wait. There is a Devil Fruit that can do that."
Blackbeard showed a very sinister smile. Ace was disgusted by his smile.
Ace gathered his last strength to send this betrayer to the grave.
"For my brother"
"No no no. I have told you many times. It's useless." A black hole appeared on his left hand. It sucked Ace towards it. Ace couldn't elementalize his body to avoid it.
"You should know even light can't escape a black hole. Then what fire can do before a black hole except accepting the fate" Blackbeard said.
Grabbing Ace's neck, he slammed into the ground with all his strength. Ace coughed out blood and passed out.
An easy victory for Blackbeard.
"It's easier than I thought. System. Mission list" Blackbeard cracked his knuckles before looking at his mission list.
"Claim reward," Blackbeard said. A devil fruit appeared on his palm. It was Mera Mera no Mi that Ace ate. Now he had it.
He ate it without hesitation.
"Zehe zehe" he laughed out loud. With this, he wouldn't have to fear the physical attack anymore. The side effect of his Devil Fruit was also erased.
He now had 10 devil fruits inside him but as a selfish person, he wanted more.
He wanted Devil Fruits that belonged to the top of the top.
The only way to have those fruits fast was the battle between Marine and Whitebeard.
As a traveler from another world, he understood the plot very well.
"Van Augur. Come down here." Blackbeard roared his crew name.
"Yeah. I am here."
"Great. Let's teleport to Marine HQ to have some bargain with Sengoku"
"Can I ask why?"
"Because" Blackbeard took out a sea-stone handcuff and cuffed Ace with it "I want the world more interesting"
Looking at Blackbeard's expression, Van Augur wouldn't delve into this matter deeper. He didn't know what Blackbeard was planning but he didn't care about it.
He immediately teleported to Marine HQ.
Looking at the Marine HQ standing magnificently in front of his eyes, he couldn't contain his excitement.
Seeing Blackbeard's existence, a navy quickly rang the bell to alarm the HQ.
In very short, a team of marines confronted Blackbeard.
"Is this okay?"
"Zehe zehe. That's fine for me." It was fine for him. It's okay If Augur dies here since he didn't care about his life.
In a few minutes, he and Van Augur were surrounded by marines.
"Ready. On my mark." A commodore raised his hand. When his hand descended, a word rang out from his mouth "Fire".
*Bang bang bang*
A consecutive thunderous roar rang out.
A rain of bullets flew toward Blackbeard and Van Augur.
Seeing this, Blackbeard's mouth raised into a smirk.
"That's not enough to stop me" A black hole appeared on his hands sucking all the bullets.
Not only the bullets were sucked, but navies were also pulled towards him.
"Allow me to give it back"
A hole appeared on their head. From it, the bullets flew and hit them.
Many marines were dead and injured after Blackbeard's cunning attack.
"Do you want to try again?" Blackbeard provoked Marine. A very sinister aura exuded from him.
Many marines stepped backward while maintaining formation.
"What's that noise" A voice of the old man rang out.
"Sengoku and Garp"
Seeing both legendary marines, the hope was ignited again.
"We are under attack by pirates"
"Pirates. In this place" Sengoku stared at Blackbeard and looked at his fallen fellows.
Sengoku strangely calmed outside.
As soon as his eyes clashed Blackbeard's eyes.
Part of him said that Blackbeard must be eliminated here and now.
"What's your business for coming here?" Sengoku asked while rolling up his sleeves. He was ready to fight at any time.
"Business. Zehe zehe. I have an interesting business that you can't refuse" Opening the black hole, Ace fell from it.
"Listening here. Old man. This is Ace, the second captain of Whitebeard Pirate. And I want to exchange him for a slot in the Warlord system. This business. Is it enough to entertain you?"
"This matter" Sengoku looked at Ace first before shifting his gaze at Blackbeard. "can do."
"Then do it right now. At this place" Stepping on Ace, Blackbeard demanded Sengoku to immediately promote him.
Sengoku ordered his subordinates to fetch him a contract.
"Here, Sir."
Taking the contract from his hands, Sengoku gave it to Blackbeard.
Blackbeard signed it without hesitation.
As soon as he signed it, a notification rang out in his head.
"Happy cooperation. We are done here. Let's go."
Van Augur nodded his head. Both of them disappeared leaving Ace behind.
"Teleport" Sengoku muttered. If they had this ability then he couldn't do anything to them.
After seeing their disappearance, Sengoku immediately arranged a ship to escort Ace to Impel Down.
Of course, he didn't forget to warn all the witnesses to keep this matter a secret.
Garp could only look at his grandson in powerlessness. He knew this day would come but he didn't expect this day to come so soon.
"Blackbeard. What are you." Sengoku said before leaving the scene. While leaving, there was only a deep frown on Sengoku's face.
Many things happened today. And now, this happened. The future would be very chaotic. He must go back and be prepared.
On the ocean, there was a big ship with 3 heads flag hanging on the top of the ship.
"Lovely home. I miss you very much" Blackbeard and Van Augur were standing on the ship.
Placing his hands on the railing, he commanded his subordinates.
"Full speed to Pirate Island. We have many businesses there."
Van Augur nodded then left.
Blackbeard also retreated to his room.
Entering his room, a freaking smile bloomed on his face.
"I didn't expect this would be easy. System. Claim reward."
[Observation Haki: Master]
"Good reward. With this, I don't have to be afraid of backstabbing"
Resting his back on the chair, he looked at the ceiling.
"I don't know if there will be an afterlife after being hit by a car. Since I come here as Blackbeard, I must enjoy to my heart's content."
Gradually, his eye's sight started to darken. He fell into sleep without knowing.
