Chapter 57

"I think it's best if we leave this place now." said Sabo

"Yeah, the World Government will definitely send more people after us." said Deuce

I smiled.

"Hehehe, It seems like I didn't tell you guys what our next destination is."

"Oh no, I don't like that look." said Ace

I used Haki to look if anyone was in the vicinity, but I couldn't sense anyone.

(An: Btw, he can also sense Den Den Mushi's. They are living creatures, after all.)

"We will be going to Enies Lobby."

"What is Enies Lobby?" asked Urouge

"Enies Lobby, also known as the Judicial Island, is a government-controlled stronghold where they judge criminals. Enies Lobby is located on an island referred to as both the "afternoon island" and the "never-night island". It is one of the World Government's three major strongholds." said Robin

"You're so smart. Just like Robin said, this is one of the three major bases of the World Government. The other two are Marine Headquarters and Impel Down."

"Why the hell do you want to go there!?" asked Zala

I looked at Brogy and Dorry.

"We will be picking up their two old friends."

"Finally! I can't wait to see those two again." said Dorry

"I wonder if they've become any stronger." said Brogy

"But wouldn't it be difficult to get them out of there?" asked Ace

"No, not at all. We could get them out of there in a second with Roberts Devil Fruit."

"Sigh. Thank god." said Mikita

"But we won't stop by just rescuing those two. We will also burn that place to the ground."

Everyone had shocked looks on their faces.

"Why did I have to join this suicidal maniac! Please god save me!" screamed Deuce

"Why the hell do you want to go so far!?" asked Ace

"Sigh. Calm down. I have two reasons for wanting to destroy that place. First, I hate the World Government and want to make it clear to them that I'm not some rookie pushover. And second, I found out that that is the headquarters of the bastards that tried to kidnap Robin. Their boss should be there."

"I see. You should have said so earlier. Let's go and f*ck them up right now!" screamed Mikita

I smiled.

'It seems like everyone wants to have a piece of them after their crewmate got hurt. It's good to know that everyone here cares about each other.'

"Guys, there is no reason to go so far for me."

"Huh? What do you mean? We are all friends here, and as friends, we have to have each other's backs." said Sabo

"And we know that you wouldn't hesitate to do the same for us." said Ace

A tear fell out of her eye.

"You guys."

"Alright, there is no need to get so emotional. We will be leaving in 1 hour, so get ready."

"Why so soon?" asked Mikita

"I don't want to give them enough time to send someone stronger after us. Oh yeah. Sabo, what happened to those two guys?"

"Sigh. Laffitte is a psychopath. I've never heard someone scream as hard as those two. But they ended up telling us nothing because Laffitte accidentally cut off their tongues."

"Sigh. Knowing Laffitte, it wasn't accidental. He just wanted to see them suffer. Well, nevermind. I will see you guys on the ship in one hour then."

They nodded.

*WOOSH*

I disappeared.

'I need to finish my business here quickly.'

I used my Haki to find the person I was looking for.

'Found her.'

*WOOSH*

A little bit later, I appeared in front of someone running in the alleyways.

"It's you!" she screamed

*BAM*

I kicked her against a building.

"Where are you trying to escape to, Kalifa?"

"Argh! What do you want with me?"

"You know why I am here. Did you really think that you could escape after your teammates failed?"

"I... I don't know what you're talking about."

*BAM*

I stomped on her head and started grinding it to the ground.

"Stop lying."

"Wait! Please spare me. I'll do anything for you. I… I'll even satisfy you at night.."

I started grinding her head harder on the pavement.

"Do you really think that you're good enough to catch my eye? How delusional."

"Argh!"

She suddenly took out a whip filled with spikes and tried to bind my neck, but I grabbed it with my Haki.

"What a pathetic attempt."

I took the whip from her and took my foot off her face.

"Soru!"

She tried to run away, but I caught her neck with the whip.

"AAHH!"

Blood started oozing from her neck.

"Goodbye."

I enveloped the whip with Haki and pulled it back towards me.

*THUD*

Her head fell beside her body, and a fountain of blood started spraying out of her body.

'Why do I always end up beheading people lately?'

I threw the whip, her head, and her body into the water.

'Well, that is that. Now let's go and get what I wanted the most from this place.'

*WOOSH*

I disappeared.

I sneaked into the place where Franky hid Pluton's blueprints. After a little bit of searching, I found it, but some alarms went off. So I quickly read through it to see if it was the real deal and then hid it in my jacket and disappeared.

(An: I don't quite remember where he hid it, and I couldn't find anything about it online, so let's just go with this.)

I appeared at dock one once again. I walked in, and everyone was even more shocked to see me than before.

"What!? How are you still alive!?" asked Paulie with a surprised face

"Huh? Did you really expect that one Vice-Admiral could kill me or something?"

He had stars in his eyes.

"You're so cool!"

Iceberg and the other guys walked towards us.

"Yeah, yeah, I know. So, are you coming with me or are you gonna stay here? We are leaving right now."

"I've thought about it, and I really want to join you guys, but I have a lot of debt. So I can't leave right now."

I looked at Iceburg.

"Is he always so stupid?"

"Sigh. Don't worry. When it comes to being a shipwright, He is one of the best.

"What do you mean, stupid!?"

Everyone facepalmed.

"Sigh. Why did you have to be such an idiot. Alright, let me explain, so even someone with one brain cell like you can understand. We are pirates, and pirates don't need to care about rules."

"Oh, I get it now. If I become a pirate, I don't have to ever worry about debt again."

"Finally. So are you coming or not?"

He looked at the rest, and they smiled and nodded at him.

He then looked at me and smiled.

"Thank you for letting me on board, Captain!"

"I'm happy to have you. Now say your goodbye's and pack your stuff. I want you to be on the ship in 30 minutes. Not a second later. Understood?"

"Yes, sir!"

"Good. See you then and goodbye, you guys."

"Goodbye. Please come to us when you need another ship." said Iceburg

I nodded and disappeared.

I put my hand in my jacket to check if the blueprint is still there.

'This world is making things too easy for me. Wait! Could it be that I have the almighty plot armor!?'

"Uh, sorry to burst your bubble Ken, but you have none of that. If you die, I'll just create a new main character and continue the story with him or her." said Author-Sama

'Wait, really! I got my hopes up for nothing. Wait, how can you read my thoughts!? Who even are you? I can't sense or see you at all.'

"..."

'Don't turn quite on me now, you bastard!'

[Author-Sama left the chat]

----------------------------------------------------------------

[How touching. The crew cares a lot about each other.]

(Don't worry guys, I won't hurt the families that are residing in Enies Lobby. This won't be a buster call attack.)
