After the entire crew had eaten, they boarded their new ship. Everyone now had a room of their own and headed off to occupy it.
As they sailed, no one knew what their next destination would be, but still no one slackened their training.
And so a month passed.
Laffitte: Captain, island in sight.
Augur: It looks like a small island, I don't think there's anything worthwhile there.
Katahara: Laffitte, tell me how it's going in Skypiea.
Laffitte: Amahiro is improving his fruit control and is improving his skill, as for the army according to what he said they are all following the strictest regime, and about 10% already mastered 3 rokushiki skills, 40% already mastered 2 rokushiki skills, and a total of 50% already mastered 1 skill, he also told me that there is a prodigy who can learn mantra and mastered 4 rokushiki.
Katahara was surprised when she heard that there was someone with such a talent.
Katahara: Tell the representatives to take a close look at that guy, what is the status of the ships we ordered.
Laffitte: Chief Shandia said that the normal ships did not have any problem, the gunboats had several problems but they have solved all of them and they have their first gunboat working, as for the balloon ships they did not have any problem either.
Katahara is amazed by the work of the sky people.
Katahara: Tell him to have 850 men ready for their first battle, I want them to deploy on the balloon ships and that prodigy will be among those men.
Laffitte understood that a great battle was approaching and he could not help his macabre smile and his bloodlust was evident.
Laffitte: As you order captain.
Katahara: Also tell him to prepare a place for some scientists.
Laffitte: Of course captain.
A short time later the warship arrived at the island, all the inhabitants were astonished they had never seen anything like this.
Katahara: Dabi looks for supplies, Laffitte finds information about the place, I hate to have no idea where I am, the rest of us will wait here.
Dabi simply jumped off the ship, while Laffitte left swinging her staff.
Hours passed and some guards approached the boat along with the one who seemed to be in charge.
Wetton: But look what a magnificent ship.
Flip: That's right father, a ship of that magnitude obviously has to pay the highest tax.
Then all the guards along with those two men boarded the ship.
Wetton: I am Mayor Wetton, the ruler of this place.
Flip: The tax for docking something of this magnitude on this island is extremely high and if you can't pay it we can receive this ship as payment, sounds fair to me.
Katahara just looked at them, and then looked at Drust.
Katahara: It seems that this island has stupid laws, but it has an even more stupid ruler, why don't you do yourselves a favor and leave before we hang your bodies in the sails of my ship.
Listening to katahara, everyone was extremely angry.
Flip: Arrest all these people and then check what treasures are in this place.
That moment everyone pointed their guns at Katahara's gang.
Lake: PADREEEEEEE..... WAITAAAAA
At that moment all the guards stopped.
Flip: Son don't interfere in this.
Lake: Listen, these people are not people to provoke, they are the black crow pirates, they have Bloody Crow as their captain with a bounty of 482million.
Hearing what his grandson said he realized he had made a mistake.
Katahara then started walking in Wetton's direction, hitting the guards so fast that he didn't even seem to move.
Katahara: Shit now I know where I am, hahahahaha, who would have thought we would get here, that saves me the trouble of sending someone here.
Seeing his men die at Katahara's hands, Wetton was frightened, so he swung his axe in Katahara's direction.
*BAM!
Augur had fired and put a hole in Mayor Wetton's hand.
Katahara then grabbed Weeton by the neck.
Katahara: I'm no saint let alone a liberator, I don't give a shit what you do on this island, but the moment you boarded my ship without my permission, you sealed your fate.
Then he snapped Wetton's neck.
*CRUSH*
Then he turned to look at Flip.
*BAM*
Katahara: You must be the grandson of this fool, I won't kill you just bring the scientist Henzo.
Then Lake just nodded and ran off.
Robin decided to go to town in search of books with Drust.
A short time later Laffitte returned.
Laffitte: Captain, I already have all the information about the island, it seems that it is frequently visited by the navy, and it has a former pirate who is now mayor.
Katahara: Laffitte, a scientist is coming soon, I need you to make sure he is loyal.
Laffitte: Sure captain, it won't be much effort, I just need to get to know him....
Katahara: They are already here.
Lake: Mr. Katahara... Here you have the scientist Henzo, as you requested.
Katahara: Good... You can go.
Then Lake left together with all the men he brought.
Katahara: Mr. Henzo, it's an honor to meet you.
Henzo has an old appearance with slanted eyes, a big mustache covering his mouth. His face is also quite wrinkled. He wears a purple shirt with pink spots. Over it he wears a long white coat with two pockets.
Henzo: Que.... What... That's what he needs from me.
Katahara: Calm down Mr. Henzo, I didn't bring you here to hurt you, you see I am a man who appreciates bright and talented minds. ....
Henzo: Do you want me to make something for you or...
Katahara: Why don't I introduce you to my comrade, Demon Sherif Laffitte, he will tell you what to do.
Laffitte: Nice to meet you Mr. Henzo, it will be a pleasure to have a chat with you.
After saying that Laffitte took Henzo to the second deck to the dining room more specifically.
Robin: Captain... Are you torturing Mr. Henzo?
Katahara: I look at Robin for a few moments.
Katahara: No... Just Laffitte will explain to him what his new job is from now on.
So the hours passed and it started to get dark, Laffitte and Henzo went up on deck.
Laffitte: Captain all ready, right Mr. Henzo.
Henzo: Mr. Katahara, just tell me what you need from me and I will give my life to achieve it.
Katahara: Relax for now you will stay in the quarters on the second deck and rest, it will be some time before you start working....
They were on that island for 2 days, before leaving.
While they were sailing, Katahara decided to subdue his sword.
At the moment that he salco his sword it began to vibrate violently, but katahara decided to use armor haki on the sword, but it began to absorb all the haki that Katahara used, then he decided to throw cuts to the sea, after few cuts the sword stopped vibrating.
It was then that Katahara realized that he was able to subdue the sword.
Katahara: Not for nothing are you one of the 12 supreme swords, even more so being the first demon slayer and the first Madite sword.
At that moment Augue came down from the guard post.
Van Augur: Captain, he cut the mast of a ship, it looks like a navy ship, but it is modified.
Katahara: Maybe some pirates stole it from some base. ..... Laffitte take us to that ship.
