When I woke up and went to the Sea Forest then started thinking about how I train. Then I asked the system.

"System, Do you have any weight that I can wear?" The system replied "No, I do not sell weight in the Store, but I have an exclusive item in the Store called Gravity Bracelet that can be useful to your training. You can manipulate the gravity of your choice. Can only affect the wearer of the Bracelet." then followed. "New Task: Do 500 Push-ups 500 Sit-ups 500 Squats 50KM Run. Reward: Gravity Bracelet."

Due to the requirement of the task. I just can't help but cursed the system for its demand. I just calmed down and did what the system asked for as it was reasonable due to the reward.

After doing that. The system rang. "Task Completed. Reward: Gravity Bracelet." I took the Gravity Bracelet, the bracelet looks like an armband and has numbers on it. I then wore it and test it. Changing the number to two. Currently, I am twice as heavy due to gravity. Satisfied with the item, I changed the gravity to default. And then went back to Mermaid Cove.

While I was going to my room Camie greeted me. "Cero-chin, Good Morning" and tilts her head and asked. "Where have been so early?"

I replied. "I was training at the Sea Forest," Camie asked me again. "Why are you training, you are already strong enough."

"It is because a lot of people are stronger than me. So trained to become like them." I simply said then walked straight to my room. Camie just pouts and then think that Cero was right.

I went to my room, took a shower, changed my clothes then went to the Mermaid Cafe.

Hours have passed after working in the Cafe. I took a short break. Listening to the customer until they started talking about an interesting subject.

"Hey, did you hear that Whitebeard will be preparing to invade at the Marineford someday. Just because to save his son. I heard that Fire-fist Ace will be executed at Marineford and now he is on route to Marineford." A fish-man said.

"I think the marines are now on high alert due to the upcoming war." One fish-man said.

"I wonder after this war will be the end or start of the new age of pirates." the fish-man said.

As Cero heard the conversation of the Fish-man, Just clenched his fist and thought about the Paramount War. Even he knows what will happen there due to watching One Piece before transporting.

The war was a momentous war that took place on the island of Marine between the Whitebeard Pirates and their allies, led by one of the four emperors, Edward "Whitebeard" Newgate and the entirety of Marine HQ' forces, including the Shichibukai, over the execution of the Whitebeard Pirates' second division commander, Portgas D. Ace.

The clash resulted in the Whitebeard Pirates' failure to save Ace and the death of their captain, Whitebeard, along with many other comrades. Despite the conflict being an overwhelming victory for the Marines, the aftermath of the battle showed an increase of pirate activities worldwide due to Whitebeard's final words that confirmed the existence of One Piece. The conflict also led to multiple major power shifts in the world.

After Cero thought back on the war. Cero's short break ended and then started to cater to the customers. Few minutes passed nothing troublesome happened until a customer complains.

"You! Go back where you came from! I want a fish-man to serve me, not a human." a fuming fish-man said.

"Sorry customer, but if you want a fish-man to serve you. It is better to go to other places." I calmly said back.

"WHAT DID YOU SAY, YOU LITTLE PUNK!" the fish-man said as he raised his fist to hit me. I dodged his fist and when he tried to hit me again. I grabbed his fist. I then closed my eyes, activated Sharingan, then stares at him and slowly said at him.

"My kind and respectable customer. Would you not hit this weak and fragile waiter unless you don't want corpses fully intact." after I said that. The Fish-man started to shake heavily seeing my eyes. Wanting to escape my grasp. I let him go then he ran out as fast that he could. The people inside the cafe started to sweat after witnessing what happened but what sticks on their mind was that the eyes of the waiter. The customers have unconsciously agreed that never get on his bad side.

Cero was glad that Camie was not here to this but at the dormitory. He did not Camie to have a bad impression on him.

He then apologizes to the customers and their response was just nodding without looking at me. And thus a name was born called "Red-eyed Waiter" as people in Fish-man island started spreading rumors about the red-eyed waiter in Mermaid Cafe. It is because of the rumor that the sales of the cafe increased as more people entered the cafe to see the person behind the rumors. Fish-man inside the cafe started to behave after the incident.

Madam Shyarly pat my shoulders and said while smiling. "It is because you a lot of customers are coming here see the "Red-eyed Waiter". When will show you red-eyes Cero?" I just replied "As long there a people wanting to create trouble here then they can see it first hand." shrugged my shoulder then went back to work.

Madam Shyarly just stared at me while smoking, not knowing what she is thinking.

Due to the rumors. Camie and the mermaids in Mermaid Cove started to bombarded with questions on what happened at the time. I just vaguely said that I asked the leave quietly and not mentioning about Sharingan.

The rumors even reached to the Ryugu Palace. At the palace, a person was sitting on a throne. "King Neptune I have heard a rumor named "Red-eyed Waiter" in Mermaid Cafe. Would you like to investigate it, My King." Minister of the Right said. "I heard that person is not a fish-man but a human, he is also certainly powerful but why would he work as a waiter." Minster of the Left said. The person sitting on the throne was King Neptune. King Neptune is a giant-sized and muscular coelacanth merman. He has a red nose, small eyes, and long thick orange curly hair (despite his age of seventy) and beard. Both his chest and arms are covered with hair. He is bare-chested and has matching black tattoos on both arms, which looks like a spiral with wavy protrusion designs around it.

"He does not have any ill intention here, so it will be alright to leave him. Let Fukaboshi observe him-jamon." King Neptune said. Fukaboshi replied. "Yes, Father" bowed then leave to go to Mermaid Cafe.

At the Fishman District, a group of shadow can be seen. A shadow that was sitting spoke." Who is the "Red-Eyed Waiter" and why is he working at the Mermaid Cafe?" one of the shadows replied "From what we heard from the fish-men. The "Red-Eyed Waiter" is a human that was hired by Madam Shyarly."

"Hired by Madam Shyarly huh... If she was not the half-sister of Arlong, I would just knock on the door take that waiter from her." the person sitting said then followed. "Just find him outside Mermaid Cove and Mermaid Cafe then capture him with force. It is no problem when Madam Shyarly doesn't know what happened to him. Hammond get him for me." he then grins wickedly and muttered. "A new slave is arriving."
