Las Camp, February 1505

After 2 months of travelling around the west Blue sea i am now resting in a hotel in town. I decided to go back to Gand line and visit the other places.

As for my Cheat cough* System Points, it has reach 5.7 m S.P. Finishing my meal i asked Robin who was sitting before me, "Did you get the information, when can we leave?".

Robin replied, "Yes, the ship will arrive tomorrow at noon, we can intercept them near Loka village if we leave at noon."

I look at her and said, "Are you ready for this?" , i want to make sure she is mentally prepared to carry out the task.

She replied, "Not really, but i will try to finish my task" i nod my head at her and looking deeply at her i continued,

"Robin, it's not that i want to force you to see this kind of things but, we are soon going to the Grand Line so you need to prepare yourself to see death. Besides you should not walk out of you fears. Remember i will always protect you".

Yes, before i leave West Blue i am going to intercept the WG ship tomorrow. It is to loot the ship as well as to help Robin walk out of her fear for the WG.

Staying with me for a year, she has started to walk out of her fear but i walk to give her the final push before reaching the Grand Line as i still see her shudder a bit when she saw marines.

After finishing my meal i head towards my room and called up the system. Opening the shop i decided to spend 1.6 m S.P to install artillery and missiles in my boat. Don't ask how, it is the system doing its job.

The task of Robin will be to destroy the WG boat in her own way. So i decided to present her the weapon to do it, which she didn't know yet.

Next day, after breakfast we leave the town and head toward Loka village. stopping our boat near the village, we wait for the ship to arrive in stealth mode.

After waiting for 3 hours the WG ship arrived near our boat, leaving my boat i fly toward their ship. Landing in their deck i said, "Oi you finally arrive, i have grown bored of waiting you know" and started to enter their ship.

The confused marines and agents on the ship wakes up and points their swords and guns at me. Ignoring them i enter the ship after knocking them out with haki.

After taking care of the agents i continued to loot the ship. With my work is done, i proceeded to tie everyone on board with a rope and destroy the denden mudhi and other recordings.

Flying back to my boat, i look at Robin and said, "Robin you can start your work, it's time"

With a reluctant expression she look at me and said, "Edward how am i going to destroy the ship. we don't have a canon so Should i go and burn their ship".

I look out a device from my inventory and giving it to her i replied, "Here i got a birthday present for you, Happy birthday". Seeing her surprised expression i seriously look at her and said, "I am not like someone who don't even ask for my birthday, i think you awe me another kiss. I remeber that its already the 4th one you awe me" and tease her.

After i am satisfied teasing her i continued, "Remember the missile i told you about, just point this device at the ship and press the red button" and teach her the way to handle the device.

Robin took the device and before she starts i told her "Yara yara wait for a bit lets get somewhere further, we don't want to get wet" and pulls the boat further away.

Seeing the ship getting further away i asked the system to lock on the ship. As Robin pulls the trigger a missiles flies somewhere from our boat and after a second Boommmmm

The noise is seriously loud, i scream to the system to sail away at full speed. Seeing the cloud rising on the place of explosion the thing work really well.

I got a notification that i have 99 missiles remaining. Ignoring the notification i look at Robin who still has a lost expression. Ruffling her hair i asked, "How do you feel, Do you like the missile?"

Getting a nod from her i begins to laugh, "The thing is awesome right hahaa so do you like my birthday present. If someone tries to harm you for your bounty just fire at them whether they are marines, pirates or WG" and i continued to laugh.

Getting a peck on cheek, i look down and saw Robin hugging me and softly says "Thank you Edward" with a small geniune smile on her face with some tears in her eyes.

I wipe away her tears and hug her and said, "yeah you are more cute when you smile, you should smile more." and pet her on the head thingking 'It will be more awesome if she grows up. I need to feed her more, it is still an airport"

Before it gets awkward, I separated her from me saying, "It's noon so should we eat your Birthday Cake now, your handsome brother spends the whole night preparing it for you" and brought out a big cake and we proceeded to enjoy the day.

Waking up the next morning, we slowly travelled toward Reverse mountain. Eating breakfast i asked, "So, are you excited to enter the Grand line"

Robin replied, "It's good if i can travel with you" with her cheeks red.

I continued to tease, "Oh if you don't want others to steal me away you should grow up soon or you will not be able to protect me from some strong women. They said there is a female emperor who like to force others to marry her or her daughters".

Looking at her reaction i continued, "If i marry an emperor than will i also be an emperor or maybe a king" with a thoughtful expression.

This earned me a pinch from the loli who said, "Idiot, you will never be a king" with a small snort and a frown.

Seeing her expression i stop teasing and continued to let her eat the milk and chicken with the excuse of 'Children growing up should eat more to be strong'.

Around noon we reach the Reverse mountain and after crossing it i arrive at the Twin cape for the second time. Seeing Laboon i told Robin about the history of Laboon and we continued to proceed and enters the Grand Line.

Reaching the Paradise sea, i command the ship to head to kyuka island also known as Holiday island. Slowly sailing towards our destination i started to think about my next move.

Seems like Buggy has reach his treasure island, must be the work of fate or author cough*. He already establish his base there.

After contemplating a bit i decided to travel around the the first half of Grand line 'Paradise' for now and developed myself. Looking at my 4.1 m S.P i decided to search for treasures and developed myself.

Looking at holiday island from the boat, it looks like it is built according to some resort island from my old world. Checking in the hotel, we head toward our room and rest.

Entering my room i check my S.P and decided to spent 2.3 m S.P to increase my Arm Haki to Grandmaster/ Advance Level. Since i am now in 'Paradise' there is a chance of meeting a Marine Admiral or some strong pirates.

Looking at my total S.P which have gone down to 1.8 m S.P. i decide to get used to my new Arm Haki while staying in the island before taking other actions.

Having breakfast the next morning, i check the newspaper. Our acts of destroying the WG ship is not shown in the news.

After breakfast i went to my room and called up the system. I search around and bought the contact number of various news agency like Mizu Mizu newspaper, Blueberry times and newly created World Economy Newspaper.

I send the various photos of WG agents tied up in a robe, burning WG ship with added some informating to the news agency.

I also send a video i recorded during the process to WENP headed by morgans with a note saying that i am intersted in an alliance for publishing news and sponsorship.

I decided to support Morgan in his early days with bellies as i know from anime that he is the type of guy to publish news content without fear of the world government.

Since i want to laze around, i decided to make the world more lively through morgans by giving him news content Nah i just want to make my Grandson Buggy more famous and up him to the position of shichibukai.

The next day the news publish the attack on WG ship along with details from the video. It cause a bit of commotion among some pirates and marines, but it did not have much impact as the newspaper is still small and only reach a small portion of people.

I Spend the next few days training and getting use to my Advanced Arm Haki while training and strolling around the island with Robin.

After a week i recieved a call on my denden mushi, answering the call i replied, "Hello Mr. Morgans, so you finally decide to call me after a week?".

"Are you the one who sent me the news, Who am i speaking with?" came the reply from the othe side.

I replied, "Name is Edward, i am the one who sent you the video and I hope you like the content. So are you calling me to speak about business."

Morgan replied, "Yes i will like to ask about the co-operation you talk about. What wil i get out of you and what do you want from it".

I replied "Straight to the point, i like that. I will give you exclusive news content and sponsor your newspaper for 800m bellies, as for what i want that's simple i want the world to know the real news, so i want a portion of column on your newspaper".

Morgain said from the other side, "Oh is that so, anything else you would like from me?" maybe it is not believable for someone to donate money just for the reason i gave.

So i replied, "There is nothing else, i just want your news to publish the news that i send, but i would like to sponsor 1 guy for the next shichibukai position through your news".

After speaking for sometime we decide on how to deliver the money and other things and end the call.

After speaking to Morgan i decided to send a new mission and check up on Buggy to make sure he is up for the task.

----Buggy PoV---

Sitting in his office Buggy was talking to his commanders about the treasures recieved during the months. His pirate fleet has increased to more than 400 regular pirate crew and 1000 workers with 8 commanders.

After arriving in the Grand line he set his base in one of the island and named it Buggy's treasure island. After setting up his base he proceeded to recruits new pirates and expend his influence by trading in various arms and raiding towns and merchant ship.

His new business of slavery brought more income than other jobs. He has saved up large amount of bellies, as for Devil Fruit he is not so lucky in finding one.

During his meeting he recieved a long lost notification system in his mission.

(The mission should be recorded to be completed.)

Seeing the mission he was stuned. He really want to kill whoever issues this mission. Looking at mission 2 and 3 he knows hecould finish as he is now confident with his large crew. But looking at mission 1 he is not so confident as seeing the reward, he is sure it will be much harder than mission 2.

Looking at his crew members he told them to collect information on pirates crew exceeding 50 m bellies and search for information on an island named Guanhua.

He proceeded to exchange all available bellies to 90,000 S.P and buys a serum from the shop to increase his strength.

Feeling the new strength coursing through his body, he feels more confident. He believes he can now fight against a Vice-Admiral.

Looking at his lackey he said, "Search for the nearest marine warship around here. Gather all crew members we are going to hunt pirates."
