238. Ryugu Kingdom

Alexander appeared on the docks at Marineford by noon. It was the Marine Headquarters from where the Fleet Admiral commanded.

He deboarded his ship and headed to the Fleet Admiral's office. Behind him were some Marines carrying the body bag. On his way, he saw the training field and saw the trio working out. They didn't notice him, however.

He entered and saw the other Admirals were there too. Surprisingly he saw Z in Admiral's cloak.

"Hahaha... Z, my boy... You got promoted?" Alexander congratulated him.

Z stiffly just shook his hand and didn't say anything as it was not the right time.

Alexander didn't wait for any of them to speak and sat down on a nice seat. "So, what's the problem?"

"Your killing of Azrail has really made the higher-ups angry. But they can also not ignore the fact that he attacked you with intent to kill. Your salary will get 70% reduction as a punishment for not capturing him and killing him." Kong informed him.

Alexander just shrugged and took out an apple from his bag to eat, "Sure, not like I care about my salary. Did you find out why he did this though?"

*Sigh*

"That fool thought that killing you would earn him a promotion, though I can't deny the fact that he might have gotten it if he was successful. Admiral Universe, I am saying this out of respect for you, the 5 Elders aren't happy with you. They are just tolerating you until they find a solution. Please don't make any more trouble." Kong nearly pleaded. It was really rare for him to act this way. It seemed he really respected him.

"Well, Kong, with how things are, I might just take retirement before they find a way to deal with me. I am as much disappointed in the world government as they say they are in me." He bluntly stated. If this was anyone else they might have faced consequences but who would punish Alexander.

Besides Alexander, Z quietly admired his sensei. Z had trained under Alexander when he was young and since those days Alexander was his role model.

"Why don't you go to the New World, Sensei? There are many pirates who need a fist of justice." Z suggested.

Kong nodded at that. The more Alexander was away from the Marineford and Mariejois, the less likely there was going to be trouble.

"It is decided then, starting next year, you will be stationed at G-5. You are an Admiral so we cannot send you too far from Marineford but you will be keeping an eye on all Pirate activity in the New World." Kong ordered.

"Alright alright, but I have a request," Alexander said.

Kong gestured to him to speak, "I will take my own ship. I will also not tell you how I made it."

Kong simply agreed instantly, why would he fret over a simple ship?

*Knock Knock*

A Vice Admiral entered the room, he was Kong's assistant. He said something in Kong's ears which made him go red.

"Dammit, Universe. I told you to follow that Celestial Dragon. He was attacked in the Ryugu Kingdom by someone. It is your mess, now you must solve it. GO!" Kong screeched.

Alexander rolled his eyes and walked out while muttering, "What's so special about them, let one or two die."

All the people in the room acted like they didn't hear him.

Alexander returned to his ship, "Bald Chad, bubble up the ship. We're going to Fish-man Island. No need to hurry, take your time."

"What if the World Noble died? They would call a buster call at the Ryugu Kingdom." Dobby voiced his concern.

"Hah... Then I will stop that buster call. Anyways, I'll include the Ryugu Kingdom in my Business empire as well. This world's purity is at puny 30%. This means it needs to be changed on a micro level. For this, simply destroying the government is not an option. First, we need to learn why this is the case and honestly I am interested in knowing how these devil fruits came to be." Alexander blabbered.

"Well, we might have to find out how this whole world came to be then. It's just too weird and illogical. I read in a book that you can actually go to the moon here with a balloon and there are also sky islands. Sometimes I feel like leaving you and going on exploring." Dobby excitedly said.

"Hahaha... Don't worry my friend, we will have our adventures soon. Besides, aren't we already on one? We're going to a freaking city ten thousand meters down in the ocean, ruled by mermaids. And we will be traveling there in a ship covered with a bubble. Can it ever get more adventurous than that?" Alexander said.

Blue Fang also walked in, "You are right, sir. Even in my years of space exploration I've never come across a planet like this. Nothing makes sense here."

"Hahaha... Then let's get used to it. No matter what, we gotta live here." Alexander patted both their shoulders.

Soon after the ship was ready, they started going down and navigated towards the opening in the Red Line from where they could enter.

Halfway through he noticed Noodles also following them, "Noodles, go back. I told you to stay at the HQ."

But Noodles seemed to ignore him and happily followed the ship.

Alexander sighed, "Ah, alright... you've already come this far."

The journey to the bottom of the ocean went smoothly. They entered the Fish-man island with relative ease. But Alexander had delayed his arrival by a whole day and he wasn't sure if the world noble was alive now.

...

The Ryugu Kingdom,

Saint Notarin, a Celestial Dragon, wanted to see the Fish-man island and get himself some nice mermaids as slaves after he lost a bid in the Sabaody archipelago's Slave house.

So like any other overly spoiled Celestial Dragon, he demanded to go and get a slave himself.

His plan seemed to have worked until he saw the fiance of King Neptune, Princess Otohime.

Saint Notarin lusted over her and demanded that she be handed over to him. It enraged King Neptune who was a giant 40-foot tall merman. He beat Saint Notarin up.

However, when his anger calmed down he realized what he had done. What calamity he had brought upon his kingdom.

"I will go with him, Neptune. For the safety of our people." Otohime proposed to her soon to be husband.

"Otohime, you know what they will do to you. I can't let this happen... No!" King Neptune denied.

"Then what option do we have? He has already called the Marines. They will send an Admiral now. I can't see so many of us die just because of me." She persuaded him.

Saint Notarin seemed to recover from his unconsciousness and stood up, "Y-You hit me? ME... A CELESTIAL DRAGONS... I WILL DESTROY THIS LAND... I WILL ENSLAVING EVERYONE HERE AND KILL YOU SLOWLY... I WILL CALL A BUSTER CALL UPON YOU..." He enraged.

"I am ready to go with you, Saint Notarin, please forgive my people." Otohime pleaded.

"Oh, no no... Now it's too late. I will have you, even if you don't come with me now. Not just you but everyone you love or care about. I will torture them in front of you. And I will start with that giant first." He pointed at King Neptune.

Suddenly a Fish-man Soldiers came running, "My king, A Marine ship has been spotted entering. It is very big."

Everyone except Saint Notarin and his men went blue in horror.

"Oh... It is probably one of the Admirals. They will show you what it means to mess with the Celestial Dragons." Saint Notarin boasted.

"Please, there must be a way. Please forgive my people, I will do anything you say." Otohime pleaded and prostrated for forgiveness.

Saint Notarin made an ugly perverted face hearing that, "Oh really. Then I have something you can do. I will let you people live if you do that."

"Please tell me."

"I want you to dance for me. Right now." Saint Notarin demanded.

Otohime felt it wasn't much and came forward to dance. But then Saint Notarin added something that broke all her will.

"I want you to dance for me, and the whole kingdom, without clothes."

He showed his ugly sickening smile while saying that. This was the real nature of him, sick and perverted.

"HOW DARE YOU!" Neptune roared in anger.

"STOP!, there is no other way," Otohime shouted at him, there were tears in her eyes. She slowly took down her scarf.

King Neptune's heart shattered seeing his always smiling Otohime. This was the first time she ever shouted at anyone. He couldn't imagine the hopelessness she was feeling. It was surely more than his. But he also felt powerless, he tried to control his anger with clenched teeth and fist. Asking himself, what he should do.
