3 3 Shells Town

As we set sail once more I thought of telling Luffy about system but with Coby there I am hesitant. I mean I really shouldn't be but I am still worried he will tell others especially Garp. Then I suddenly thought who the hell cares if Garp knows or not.

"Luffy I want to tell you a big secret of mine but Coby you need to promise to not tell anyone else."

"A secret?" Luffy tilts his head

"A secret I um I-i promise not to tell" Coby said

"Good if you tell anyone else I'll hunt you down and punish you" I say with a face full of seriousness causing Coby to sweat nervously "Ok to make things simple for Luffy I woke up today and got memories of my past life. Also I awoke a mystery system that gives me things like powers and stuff like this" I hold out my hand as black lightning began to move along my fingers

"So cool!" Luffy says with sparkles in his eyes as he looks at the lightning on my fingers. Thank God my brother is really simple.

"But that's impossible! It's probably another devil fruit ability right? Right?!" Coby panics so I bop him on the head

"There are a lot of impossible things on this planet. Like Islands floating in the sky, people with unimaginable powers, gold that makes people immortal, people who can hop in the sky, and many more things. If you are going to be a great marine you need to step onto a bigger stage than just the East Blue. Out there on the seas where the impossible becomes reality."

"S-sorry" he said looking down.

"So any questions?"

"Can this mystery thingy give you food?" of course that's luffy's question

"I believe so but it is random so I might not get any food from it"

"I have a question. Um did thins system give you the ability to become invisible?" Coby said thinking about how I just appeared on the Alvida's ship

"Nope but it gave me an item to make me invisible." I said before pulling out my invisibility cloak and put it on to demonstrate

"How did you pull that out of the air!?"

"I got an inventory with the system. It's like a personal sub space that doesn't exist in this world but is always available to me to put things in or take them out not including living things like people or animals."

"So it's a mystery space" Maybe Luffy is a bit too simple. Got to make him smarter somehow.

"That does sound complicated Alex" What?! Even Coby didn't understand that simple explanation?

"Whatever" I put the cloak back "Other than that I also got a… Mystery farm" I said with a sigh feeling my IQ decreasing just by saying it. "So we will never run out of food. Just need to get some fruits, vegetables, and some animals to put in it."

"Food!"

"That's amazing Alex!"

"So on the next island we go to I will go buy some seeds and some livestock"

"How much money did you make on your journey anyway brother?" Asked Luffy

"About 23 million berries"

"Wow that much just from bounty hunting?"

"Well not just bounty hunting I also worked as a merchant selling the stuff I took from bandits and pirates plus trading between Islands. I got at least a fourth of that money by selling things."

"So you were a bounty hunter/ merchant that is now a pirate?"

"Yep I promised luffy that I would be his deputy captain and also his 1st division commander."

"First division commander?"

"On the second half of the Grand Line the best pirates have fleets divided into separate divisions. So I will be the 1st division of the Straw Hat Pirates meaning I need to pick up some people for my own crew. Though for now we will be with Luffy until I get my own ship" Probably from Water 7 or the Gacha if it gives me one.

"Oh…"

With that we sat in silence so I decided to look through the loot I got. Let's see… Various regular swords sabers and pistols. Books of memories from the pirates I defeated, I put those in the trash as I don't need memories from cannon fodder. I also didn't get any techniques or attacks from them since they are cannon fodder who only know how to gang up on those weaker than themselves.

Also all the food we didn't take in bags. Yep after Coby left the storeroom to load up our dinghy I took all the rest of supplies and treasures leaving none for the pirates. I also tied all the pirates up real good so it is up to luck if they survive or not. I'm not really that merciful after having my disorders erased and being in a dog eat dog world like this one I can't afford to show too much mercy especially with blood thirsty pirates. Who knows what this crew did after Luffy and Coby left in the series. Obviously they wouldn't disband.

Should I be concerned about my lack of guilt for doing this? I just chalk it up to another gift from God that will allow me to survive in this world and other worlds. After all ruthlessness is mercy upon ourselves. Though because of that thought I am now singing the song in my head.

"What are you humming over there Alex?" I snap out of my thoughts and look at Luffy who asked the question.

"Just a song Luffy"

"Oh oh can you sing us a song?"

"Sure Luffy hm... ok clap and stomp your feet like this" I demonstrate and they follow along. I then began to sing Bones by Sail North

Luffy and Coby claps loudly "Wow I didn't know you could sing so good!" said Luffy

"That was a good song Alex"

-Time skip 2 days-

Finally! Shells Town! Other than the first few hours the rest of the trip was in mainly silence so I would practice my magic which caused excitement among my two companions for a while but after awhile it went silent again. I increased may magic points by three times the amount just from experimenting til I ran out of mana then meditating, yes I unlocked that skill. I could just use Mana Restoring potions I got from the Skyrim draw but I figured I would save them for later.

I also practiced my ID skills and found out if I am on a boat I will still be on the boat both in the ID and when I escape it. So I have no worries about it being lost at sea when using it. Though I probably need to be on dry land after I unlocked the Zombie ID

"Alright Luffy I'll be going shopping and you can do whatever you want for the next few hours"

"Sure thing Alex." with that finished I do indeed go shopping for the next few hours though I had to haggle for the livestock, and feed, and ended up with two pairs each of chickens, goats, cows, and pigs. When I got out of sight I put them and all the seeds into my farm. The farm automatically started to take care of everything and I feed the animals. Soon I won't even need to feed them by hand since once the crops grow the farm will use those instead.

As I returned to town I heard a commotion from the marine base "Ah that must be Luffy" I quickly head to the base just to see Luffy taking care of Axe Hand Morgan which brought cheers from the marines. "Looks like I missed all the fun" I said to Luffy with a smile

"Oh hey Alex! This is our new crew member Roronoa Zoro!" He said gesturing to the green haired swordsman

"Nice to meet you Zoro"

"Likewise" he said before passing out from hunger and dehydration.

"Well that is one way to meet someone. Let's get him some food and drinks Luffy" Luffy nods putting zoro on his shoulder before running to a restaurant in town with me following his trail.

Two hours later we are all feed, the food was also free as the owner gave us it free for beating Morgan.

"Excuse me." said a marine with more marines behind him. "Are you Pirates"

Without missing a beat Luffy said "Yup!" to which I facepalm

"Then we must ask you to leave but thanks to your help we will not report you to the higher ups" Me Zoro and Luffy get up to leave "wait is this one with you" he points to Coby

Before Luffy can speak "No, we forced him to paddle for us to get here" the marines began to grumble about scum pirates but we merely leave.

As we begin to leave on the dinghy Coby comes to the shore line. "Thank you for everything Alex, Luffy!" he said before saluting us. Then behind him a group of Marines do the same. Heh marines saluting pirates. What a crazy world this is.
