I dropped the Mother and Child to East Blue, Cocoyasi City. Nojiko was doing great by the time I haven't seen her. She created more companies and give work opportunity to more orphans. After the Black Wing spread through to Grand Line all the export business' also started to spread Grand Line. The first was Nojiko's tangerines juices.
Cocoyashi City becomes one of the biggest cities and center of the marketing in the East Blue. I was visiting from time to time and I still surprise each time I come back to this old Village. The old Sheriff Genzo now became the mayor of the city. I talked with Nojiko and she said she was worried about her sister. Nojiko knew I had a Bounty Hunter Guild, thus she never mentioned me about Nami before. Probably she read the news about war and got worried.
"Don't worry about to War. Even the result affect the World on a minor scale, your sister will be fine. Wherever she is." I tried to comfort her and pat her back while hugging her.
"Thank you. Your words reassure me." said, hugging me back. I would like to stay but I had to move. The war was about to begin, and Luffy was about to leave the biggest prison in the world, Impel Down.
A few days ago, I was warned by the seal I left on Luffy before we were sent to separate places. I knew he was going to be in trouble, thus I marked him before Kuma separated us all. And a few days ago, his heart rate slowed so much, I thought he died. I was about to jump to Luffy, Crow told me to wait little longer, this was a great moment in Original Series, makes Luffy immune almost all poisons. Also at this point in the prison, Luffy would recruit all the people wanted to escape from Prison and make a great contribution to his side of the war.
Some of the figures were totally useless, but some were key to escape of the Ace and Luffy. I was shocked when I first hear that, Ace actually escaped with the help of Luffy, but in the end, he turned back, because he couldn't get over the insult to Whitebeard, ending with his death. Why would he do such a stupid thing? How come a few words can hurt the strongest man in the world?
This time things ought to be different. Even if Garp stays out of the War, I will be there and I intend to save Anne for Luffy. Even if the Whitebeard side lost, I will just fly away with Luffy and Anne. I made my plans since I learned there would be a big war. This war will be my shining spot. I am not all selfish, of course, I want to help Luffy. Luffy is different from other pirates. He doesn't do it for fame or money or killing people. He doesn't even kill his enemies.
But I am not sent to this world to make Luffy Pirate King, and as he said to the Rayleigh when Usopp asked about One Piece. "I don't want to know where the treasure is! I don't even want to hear if there is a treasure or not! Nobody knows anything about it, yet everyone set sail to seas to find it. If Rayleigh were to tell us where is One Piece, I will quit being pirate! If we are going to have a boring adventure, I won't have it at all."
This speech made so much thing more clear to me. Even if I wanted to help Luffy to find the One Piece easily he wouldn't want it. What Luffy wants is the adventure he has when he searches for the One Piece, not the One Piece itself. After when Rayleigh asked him: "Can you do it? Can you beat everyone stands in your way? And conquer all seas?"
Luffy just smiled brightly and said: "I don't want to conquer anything. I just think Pirate King is the has the most freedom in these seas." This is how Luffy thinks, and for this very reason even if he says to me one day, I will start a war against to all world, all I will think, how did World make a mistake to force Luffy to take action and I will support him. Because I know, he would never hurt somebody without reason. On purpose, anyway.
Still, I have my own Quest and to clear it more easily, I have to act selfishly from time to time. I have to get stronger in this World, and I have to return to Naruto World. I have a rematch with Akatsuki and I am sure, Sasuna is waiting for me. It has already been a few years since I come here, and it should be only a few months in Naruto World, I hope she is doing okay.
It was about the time. I flashed few times and reached one of the Island near the Tarai Current. Tarai Current was, artificially made current connect three most important location of the World Government. When a ship gets in the Tarai Current, there are only three points she could arrive.
The first is Enies Lobby, the court where all criminals trialed and send to the Impel Down with one exception. The exception was an old enemy of Luffy, hypnotist Jango. He joined to Marine. Later Enies Lobby crashed by Luffy and rest of his crew because they kidnapped Robin. Big mistake! Cp-9 was tough but luckily Luffy was able to beat those bastards, or I was going to kill them all. When all finished I was about to kill Spandam but Robin let him live, so, it wasn't up to me to take his life.
The second was Impel Down. Just today, there was a great prison break started with Luffy and the rest of the prisoners he and Bunny gathered on their way to exit. There were great names in those crowd. From this day forth, Impel Down would lose its unbreakable title. They may able to hide first prison break but the second one is much bigger. This time, all world will know what Luffy made.
The World Government hides the fact about Luffy, all the time. When he beat the Crocodile and saved the Alabasta, they gave the credit to Smoker. I know from Crow, Smoker refused this shameful act but still, he had no power. And when the Enies Lobby crushed by Luffy, all the papers wrote it as if it was Buster Call destroyed the Island. Yes, the Buster Call did happen but the one made all ruckus was Luffy. In many other examples too, Luffy's deeds were buried.
The third destination is Marineford. Headquarter of Marines. Where the execution of Anne would take a place, and where the war will start. It was almost destroyed in the original series, I wonder if it will destroy this time.
To reach this three location from Tarai Current, one has to pass the Gates of Justice. There are barriers prevent anyone pass to this three location. Only from the Gate of Justice, these places are reachable. If the Gates of Justice did not open, the ship would sail in the current and could never leave.
But, there are other ways to reach these locations. To reach Enies Lobby for example one can take the train going through seas. Same goes for other locations except for Impel Down, build in the Calm Belt. It is a very dangerous sea, nigh impossible to sail.
I flashed to seal, closest to the Trial Current. If what Crow gathered is true, either Luffy left the Impel Down already or he was about to leave. It was time for me to go to him.
When I flashed seal on Luffy, I was on the ship with lots of prisoners. Their clothes were giving them away. There were some Okama like Queen as well. One of them was eye-catching particularly. He had the blue curly afro and big head, so much bigger than his body. What is this World creator smoking?
After I flashed, most of the strong ones get in alarm immediately but when Luffy saw me he smiled and said: "Madara! How come you are here?"
"I heard about Anne and I decided to join the fun. Sorry, I wanted to come earlier but I got stuck where Kuma sent me?"
"As long as you are fine, it is all right." and he started to introduce people to me. He passed the old enemies, like Bunny and Crocodile. Jinbei was Fishman wanted to join Luffy to fight alongside with him. From what I learned Crow, Jinbei was always thankful to Whitebeard, because Whitebeard took Fishman Island under his flag, and reduced Fishman and mermaid slavery almost ninety percent.
Ivankov was Revolutionary Commander, prisoned long ago. He wasn't eager to break free but when he learned Luffy is the son of Monkey D. Dragon, aka Revolutionary Leader, Also known, World's Most Wanted he decided to escape alongside Luffy to aid him...
