ken was now enjoying red wine with a fine meat dish inside the reception room of a cruise ship . it has been five days since he encountered the young marine in goa kingdom . as for why he was enjoying instead of training inside the forest ? well he had no choice but to leave the dawn island .
ken had underestimated the methods of world government . it looks like they must have seen him as a great threat so after a day of not finding a clue about his true identity , they placed a bounty on his head . the bounty on kaito kid's head was 50,000,000 berri . this was the highest bounty in this east blue sea .
of course ken wasn't bothered or concerned about the bounty but he was annoyed as the marines had started bothering people of foosha village unexpectedly. their purpose was of course searching for the trail of kaito kid but this was completely out of Ken's expectations. one had to know that foosha village was the hometown of marine hero garp . so Ken hadn't expected that marines would brazenly investigate there so fast .
ken was left with no choice but to show the marines that he had left the goa kingdom . the best way to do this was stealing at another island . fortunately there were many islands in east blue so ken just chose to ride a cruise ship which was traveling to an island called stone island .
this island produced colorful stones so was famous for many crafting stuff . ken had chosen this island as the next target because there were many merchant house branches there and even a huge auction house that wasn't inferior to the one on goa kingdom .
as for why ken didnt chose to travel there straight using void ? simple , because ken doesn't want to tell the world government the extent of his powers yet . it would take 6 days to travel till stone island from dawn island so ken chose the cruise ship and took a ride after introducing himself as a bounty hunter .
fortunately the captain of this large ship was recruiting bounty hunters and strong men for security as the sea was turbulent. this world had many more islands comparing to the anime so of course pirate groups were huge in numbers too . so ken effortlessly joined them on the journey only till stone island .
as for training? it was no problem for ken as he could just train inside his room on the ship . now ken was constantly maintaining 8x normal gravity while during training it increased to 10 x normal .
suddenly the ship started shaking and the party was ruined .
- captain ! blue crook pirates are attacking our ship !
- what ? immediately contact the marine base! dont worry guests , we will be fine as there is a marine base near and we have recruited many strong men for your security!
just when this drama was happening ken had already left the party room and arrived at the ship deck . he saw a pirate ship which was a huge galleon ship with a jolly roger mark on .
