Chapter 3. Escape

After impersonating the guard, I freely moved inside the mansion looking at the beauty of the mansion. Even though celestial dragons were the lowest scums, their home was truly magnificent.

Half an hour passed and I was in a big room with others who wore the same armor like me.

"Why did we gather here?" I asked the guard beside me. I didn't know why I came here as one of the guards took me here saying it was important.

"Newbie?" The guard asked.

"Yes. I joined recently." I told a lie.

"We are here because one of the lords is going to descent lower world." the guard said.

"So we are here to protect the lord?" I asked.

"Yes."

I was infuriated by the guard's word. I thought that the celestial dragons think they are gods as even mere guard uses the word 'descent lower world'. But I couldn't do anything now as if I did my plans fail which I couldn't allow to.

"Silence!!!" a domineering voice echoed and every guard stopped gossiping and straightened up.

Some old-looking man came and explained to us what to do and what not to do.

After the explanation ended he led us to the ship that was going to the sea.

I looked at my ticket with appreciation in my eyes. Finally, I was going to escape from this place.

***

Soon after we were on the ship ready to set sail once the celestial dragon arrives.

"Line up." once again the old-looking man shouted with a domineering tone. As the guards including me heard this, we all hurried to line up and welcome the celestial dragon.

The celestial dragon was riding a big slave not walking himself. These filthy acts were making me detest them even more and making me sure one day I will come back and exterminate them all.

The celestial dragon gets on the ship and we set the sail. From what I heard we were going to East Blue which was also known as The Weakest Sea as there weren't any strong individuals there except a few.

I looked at the Mary Geoise and said "Arrivederci and I will be back."

***

A month has passed and we finally arrived at the island we were headed to.

I get to the board and looking at the place where my new journey begins. The island was strangely familiar to me but couldn't remember why.

Suddenly I heard a loud boom sound and smoke came from the sea.

I looked at the smoke curiously and saw a very familiar scene. It was a scene where Sabo got shot by a celestial dragon. After seeing this I realized, I was heading to the Gao Kingdom. Place where the protagonist of One piece, Monkey D. Luffy was raised.

Soon after we set stopped and descended from the big ship.

The King and Queen, as well as nobles from the Gao Kingdom, greeted us with full of faked happiness on their faces.

The celestial dragon went to the kingdom's castle with his slaves and royal guard of the Gao Kingdom, leaving me and others on the ship which was perfect for me.

Soon after the crowd dissipates, I quickly run away from the ship while no one was looking at me with enough food and riches.

I run to the forest which was the best option to hide for now. Since the celestial won't be bothered by a single person's life if I hide here and wait they will eventually leave.

After a week, the ship finally left. As the ship left, I went down to down to the town.
