262. Amber Lead

"Haha, good job, Alfred. This will surely help me." Alexander praised him while assessing the entire fleet of 300 metal warships, 50 submarines, and 150 frigates.

"Do you even have enough people to man these ships?" Alfred asked.

"No, not yet. For now, I will take help from Unsullieds and Seraphs. Alright, take care then. I'll go and check up on a few places."

Alexander and Dobby appeared in Ohara. "Derishishishi... GRANDPA!"

He heard a cute childish voice calling him. He looked towards it and sure enough, it was little Robin. He went ahead and ruffled her hair, "What are you doing sitting here? playing with Saul?"

"I'm bored. They still didn't allow me to join them and study." She complained.

"Oh, why is that?" He asked.

She looked down and pouted, "Because I'm small."

Alexander laughed and put her on his shoulders, "Who said that? Our Robin may be small, but she is very strong. Let's go, I'll tell them to take you in."

"Really? Yayyy" she happily threw her arms in the air.

"How is everything on the island, Saul?" Alexander asked the giant good man.

"Everything is okay, boss. No Marine ship came here since the last time." He reported.

"Good, do you want to join my Golden Justice Army? You will become the commander of this island." Alexander proposed.

Saul was, after all, a vice admiral. You don't reach that rank with just raw power, you also need a brain.

"I don't have anywhere else to go or to do, so I will, boss." He accepted.

Alexander laughed and told him about his job, "Haha, good. I will be placing 5 warships and lots of artillery on the island shores. A small base of 100 Soldiers will be made here. You will command all of it."

After that, he took Robin to the library. "Oy, Clover. Why did you leave her out of research? She already knows everything and the world government has also put a bounty on everyone on this island so what's the point now? I also promised her that I'll let her study."

"Ah, but her mother is the one who denied it. She said Robin isn't ready yet," Clover told him.

"Come on, she can't decide that. After all that Robin has been through, I think she deserves it. Can you imagine what her life would have been like if I hadn't come and she was the lone survivor? I order you to take her in or I will not help you collect the Poneglyphs. I will take Robin with me and teach her everything myself." He threatened them with something they understood.

"Ah... Please don't get angry, Mister Universe. We will let her join us. Come, Robin, I will show you my research." Clover called her.

Robin excitedly heard everything from Alexander's shoulders and after finally getting the permission she was on cloud nine. She quickly jumped down and ran to Clover but then, she stopped and came back to Alexander.

"Grandpa, I want to tell you something." She said.

Alexander sat down and let her come to his ear. Robin slowly came to his side and kissed his cheek. "Thank you, Grandpa."

She blushed and ran away. Alexander loudly laughed at her cute behavior. He loved seeing her smile from her heart. He couldn't imagine the life she had lived till now.

~There must be millions of kids like her in the world. I guess it's time to eradicate world hunger.~ he thought.

After that, he returned back to Foosha Village. "GRANDPAAAAA"

"ACE-CHAN, YOUR FOOD..."

Ace had started walking and talking by now and he walked very fast. He made Rouge go through hellish exercise every day.

Ace saw Alexander and came to him for the piggyback ride. Something he always gets.

"Haha, teasing your mother ha?" He picked him up.

Rouge soon came with a plate filled with baby food. "Ah, You all have spoiled him too much. He doesn't listen to me at all."

"Don't forget Rouge. Ace has the blood of you and Roger. Can you imagine the son of Roger being a calm boy?" Alexander asked.

She sighed and shook her head, "You always have answers. Help me make him eat this."

"Wait, why not make him some flavored baby food? Ace-chan, what do you like eating the most?" He asked.

"Cho-co-co-tate..." He chirped happily.

Alexander then gave Rouge chocolate-flavored baby food. Ace enjoyed that a lot.

"Old man, you are becoming famous these days." Roger entered with an Economic news newspaper. He showed it to Alexander.

"Haha, they are calling me Demon of Pirates, such hypocrisy. I think I should start putting bounties on them too." He commented looking at the newspaper.

"Hahaha... Wait, are you serious? Putting bounties on them?" Roger asked in disbelief.

"Yeah, I have a lot of money so it's better used than left lying around. Anyways, I'll go to my place now."

Alexander had his own small castle there where his big family lived. He entered and as usual was greeted with cute giggles from the girls. He found Olivia first. "Oli, you need to start working. I want to provide food to the whole world for a while. Until I can make them self reliant."

"Ah, I've already started working on that. Your Kindheart shops will soon become distributors of cheap food for the poor." She informed.

Alexander then looked around for all the dwellers of the castle, "Hey, where are Hats and Douglas?"

"Ah, Grandpa. Kitty said he wanted to see the city so he went there with uncle Douglas and Berry... I hope he's okay." Gina told him, it seems she had a soft spot for her fluffy friend.

~Yeah, I hope the city is fine.~ he thought.

...

Flevance, a country in the North Blue.

Flevance was said to be straight out of a snowy country in a fairy tale, as the earth, trees, and grass were all pure white, and the beauty was so stunning that it left visitors wondering whether the island was real or not.

A special and rare kind of ore, Amber Lead, was discovered underneath the kingdom and was determined to be the source of Flevance's marvelous white nature.

With the discovery of amber lead, a variety of goods such as utensils, paint, sweets, makeup, and weapons were made out of the ore. People from all over the world bought those high-quality goods, leading to the kingdom's eventual rise to affluence.

However, a hundred years ago when the industry came to be, the World Government and the country's royal family discovered that amber lead was poisonous, but chose not to inform the country of its harmful nature to gain profit from the industry.

As part of the adverse effects, each succeeding generation that came to be had a shorter lifespan than their predecessors. By the time the world discovered the toxicity of amber lead, it was too late to save the heavily poisoned country.

While the royal family selfishly escaped with the assistance of the World Government, abandoning their people in the process. The people were left alone to die.

Alexander just found out about this thing from his Kindheart Mall in that country. The news was going to be in the next day's paper too. But Alexander decided to act fast before something bad happens. After all, the country was abandoned by its ruling monarch.

"What are we going to do boss?" Dobby asked.

"Hahaha, get 10 warships, and let's go and claim the abandoned country. It is a free real estate." Alexander laughingly announced.

"Yes, Boss. I'll also have the medical experts in Seraphs and Unsullieds ranks to come along."

...

When all this was happening, a certain Fishman ex-slave who ran out of Mary Geoise some time ago returned to the same place by climbing the Red Line with sheer physical strength. He had only one thought in mind which kept him climbing the seven thousand meters high wall, that was to free others from the same fate as his own.

He went to free the Fishmen mainly but the teachings of Queen Otohime and the words of that certain old man in his childhood made him free everyone without prejudice.

Among them were many children too. They all ran for their lives as fast as they could. It was chaotic.

The world government tried to stop them but the Fish-man had also started fires in many buildings for diversion.

Now, it was yet to be seen how Alexander will react when the news would reach him.

...

A few days later,

In the Human Auction houses in Sabaody archipelago, a certain old man magically appeared out of thin air.

He himself looked confused about his whereabouts.

"Goddammit, I didn't sign up for this," he complained.
