CHAPTER 10

After Alex returned to the city he again extended his Observation Haki to see if Luffy and the others had already left the cube and he was surprised to notice that not only Luffy and his crew had not left the cube, but Smoker, Tashigi, Buggy, and Alvida hadn't come out either.

Alex was confused. Although Buggy and Alvida were small characters, Luffy, Zoro, Sanji, and Smoker were powerful characters, so he didn't understand how they hadn't solved a white cube yet.

Out of nowhere Alex hit his forehead and laughed to himself remembering that they were still in Loguetown, that is, in this world Luffy and the others are still very weak, but Alex thought Luffy's strength was a reference to the last chapters that he saw and that is why the original confusion was created.

Remembering that, Alex didn't worry and began to explore the city while he waited, as he had decided to board the ship with the straw hats to go to the Grand Line.

However, when he was spending his leisure time in a tavern, the screen in the sky burst into flames, and the messages that appeared shocked the world, especially the navy and world government.

[Shanks completed a red cube. Receive the reward of Kazuma Kuwabara's Spirit Sword technique]

[Whitebeard completed a red cube. Receive the reward of a bottle of water of life]

[Kaido completed a red cube. Receive the Clash Royale Skeleton King Maso Bounty]

[Big Mom completed a red cube. Receive the Clash Royale Giant Summoning Card reward. Single use]

[Blackbeard completed a red cube. Receive the reward of a Haki Card from the Advanced Conqueror]

[Dracule Mihawk completed a red cube. Receive the reward of technique 10,000 flying swords]

[Silver Rayleigh completed a red cube. Receive the reward of 20 years of youth]

[Monkey D. Dragon completed a red cube. He receives the summoning card reward from the hero Spartacus. Single use]

The 8 red cubes that had been reported had been obtained by pirates and the revolutionary army, which was not good news for the navy and the world government who had not found a cube of red level or higher yet.

Apart from those 8 cubes, only Alex's cube was missing, but for the navy, Alex was a criminal because he had helped Whitebeard before, so he was already on the list of enemies, although he didn't know it.

Damn, why did all the red cubes fall into the hands of pirates? (Sengoku)

Those bastards are too lucky. Have none of us found one? (Garp)

To date, only 3 purple cubes have been found by some vice admirals. (Tsuru)

While the high officials of the navy complained to each other about not getting high-level cubes, everyone was trying to guess what the rewards obtained from the red cubes did.

Some were techniques, others were items and cards, but no one knew what specific use they had. Alex was a bit more informed, but still, he didn't know everything. He knew what the Spirit Sword technique Shanks received was, though he didn't know how it worked in this world without spirit energy, and he didn't know what the technique Mihawk received.

He also knew what the maso Kaido gained and sensed what the Big Mom and Dragon cards could do, but he had no idea what it was the water of life that Whitebeard received.

Alex was a bit upset because when he received the Advanced Armament Haki card from the golden casket, the god of rewards informed everyone including a small description of the reward, but he didn't this time, so despite knowing what the others won, it was not known what it was for.

After his little internal tantrum, Alex thought a bit about the rewards the others got. He knew that the god of rewards would give abilities and items from anime, manga, movies, games, and similar, but it seemed like he hadn't seen the anime, manga, game, or movie where those abilities and items came from.

After thinking that for a moment, he put it aside, as it was time to investigate his own reward. Alex found a secluded spot and pulled out the metal cube he'd received from his inventory.

After touching it, Alex disappeared and reappeared in what looked like a basement, albeit quite spacious. Alex recognized it immediately, it was the basement of Tony Stark's house in the movie, where he designed his famous armor.

Alex wasted no time checking out the place. He soon understood all that he could do here. This lab had all the tools to create Ironman-level technology, this included Jarvis as the operator of this machinery.

However, there were no materials or weapons made in this place, not even the Ironman armor. Alex understood that this was because his score on the cube was A and not S, but he didn't get depressed because the laboratory was more than enough.

Although Alex was not a genius like Tony Stark, he had learned some knowledge about technology from the system. Also, the lab had Jarvis and thanks to the system Alex had some saved weapon blueprints and even materials to make them, so he just had to let Jarvis do the work for him.

Without delay, he produced the plans for the Vibranium suit and the materials. He let Jarvis scan everything and within 5 minutes Jarvis's voice was heard throughout the lab.

Scanned plan, identified material, completed technical details, calculating... Complete data. The suit will be finished in 5 hours. (Jarvis)

Alex was immediately happy, as this suit was practically a copy of Marvel's black panther, only Alex wasn't going to wear it the way black panther did. Alex would wear it under his clothes as a second layer of protection under his Haki.

He was clear that despite the great defensive qualities of the Vibranium suit, against the crazy powers of this world, its qualities were insufficient, in fact, Alex believed that the Germa 66 suits could be more resistant than the suit he was creating.

At least that was what Alex believed, he didn't know if it was true. What he was sure of was that this suit together with his Armament Haki was one of the best defenses he could have.

Seeing that the manufacture of the suit would last 5 hours, Alex left the laboratory and kept the cube in his inventory, since it was not necessary to be in the laboratory for it to work, that's why it was "Portable".

Alex returned to the city to wait for Luffy and the others to get out of the cube, before boarding their ship and traveling to the Grand Line. Unexpectedly, Luffy and the others did not come out of the cube until the next day, which surprised Alex, because although it is true that they are still weak, he did not think that it would take a full day to clear a white cube.

Instead, Smoker had gotten out faster. Alex waited for the events of Loguetown to take place to make his move, but he was surprised to see that things didn't go according to plan.

It turns out that the fact that Buggy entered the same cube as Smoker made him to focus on Buggy, so Luffy and his crew were able to navigate the streets of Loguetown without worry, even Dragon didn't show up.
