On Sphinx Island,
Rob asked in a low voice, "How did he escape?"
"He broke Kairouseki's handcuffs in an unknown way and used a wine barrel to hide and fled into the turbulent sea. I don't know if it was courage or foolishness, but he managed to escape from my hands already... Pathetic, isn't it?" Whitebeard replied calmly while drinking the wonderful wine from the art store.
"So, it's been three weeks since he ran away, and you hasn't heard anything about, right?" Rob asked.
"Yes, the sixth and seventh division are looking for him madly at the moment, but to no avail. I don't know if he's alive or dead, but I don't really care. What can a small disabled son do?" Whitebeard replied.
"He's still alive, he has a strong destiny... Anyway, there's no need to worry. He can't do anything but run away like a dog from now on," Rob smiled before he said.
"Anyway... I haven't thanked you yet for setting up an art store here in my hometown... Doing so honestly means a lot to me. You helped my sons in their last war, who were able to successfully return the body of Oars. You also helped me to meet my biological son and my wife, who I thought had died a long time ago... What you have done for me in this short time is very significant. You have my word, I will help you in your war against the world government if you need me," Whitebeard said gratefully.
Rob smiled after hearing that. No doubt getting the promise of such a great pirate like Whitebeard, who does not favor fighting more than protecting his children, was a great thing to hear. But does Rob really need help from Whitebeard at this point? He just helped him not to refuse to participate in the "Games world" when he needed it... After all, Rob urgently needs Whitebeard to share.
"It's okay, even if you don't want to enter into conflict with the government right now, you will want to when Marineford arc comes..." Rob smiled when he saw the confusion appear on Whitebeard's face.
"Marineford arc—?" Whitebeard wanted to make an inquiry about this upcoming arc, but he heard his foolish crew members start singing again.
On the side, Marco, Oden, Izou, Jozu, and others were all singing merrily with a small child who looked like a small version of Whitebeard.
And the one who was singing and laughing very happily, too, was Edward Weevil. "Yohohoho, Yohohoho! Binksu no sake wo, todokeni yuku yo!"
The attention of Whitebeard, who looked at this, was caught by a satisfied smile on his face.
Although he found out that the child has a mild mental illness, Rob reassured him that he could be treated.
As his child's situation is called the mild level of autism, it will only get more severe if it is not treated properly. That's what his mother, Stussy, was failing terribly.
After hearing Rob's explanation, Whitebeard felt very relieved.
Who in the world would want to see their child with a mental problem?
"Your little child seems to enjoy music... Well, be sure to use the task and reward system in his treatment. Only when he finishes a task correctly can you then give in to his requests. Do not give in to him unless he does what you ordered him... The manga of One Piece will also play a big role in treating his low cognitive level. He is still a child anyway," Rob spoke like an expert, and he wasn't a stranger to the situations that existed in abundance in his previous world.
He quickly recognized that Weevil was autistic.
"I would be happy if you could take care of my son for a few years until he recovers... Can you help me, Rob-sama?" Weevil's mother, Stussy, finally spoke up.
Stussy only wanted to treat her child so that he could return to being a normal child.
Whitebeard looked at Stussy, who was almost kneeling down at her feet to beg Rob.
His expression looked solid, and his emotions were complicated.
"Stussy... I'll kill Du Feld for sure, and I'll also treat our child too. After all, I'm Whitebeard!" he exclaimed.
"I don't care about Du Feld... But I want my child to heal as soon as possible, and the only way to do that is to leave him with Rob-sama," Stussy replied.
Since she found out that her little sister (her clone) was Rob's wife, she felt that Rob was like a son-in-law to her, and he would not refuse her request if she made it.
"Well, don't worry, I'll help you. But, from today on, you will be legally Stussy's older sister, and the secret of her being a clone should be buried with you," Rob said while looking at Whitebeard, too.
Whitebeard understood what Rob meant and said, "I'll keep the secret."
Rob nodded before grabbing the young Stussy's other hand. "It's time to go home. I need to updated the new volume of Solo Leveling," he said.
...
Three days later, on Thriller Bark island:
"Finally! It's been a whole month since the last volume," exclaimed Moria.
"I can't wait to see the army of shadows again! Kishishishishi! Cough! Cough-! These hot chips are killing me!" Moria coughed violently after eating a handful of spicy chips.
"Captain, what's so special about this Manhwa? I haven't read it yet," asked a curious young man, addressing Absalom.
Moria gave Absalom a strange look, as if he were looking at a madman. "What the hell... How come you haven't read Solo Leveling yet? Are you even human?"
"Please forgive me, Captain. I'll buy all the available volumes right away," replied Absalom, eagerly taking the million Berry that Moria offered him.
"Go on, and don't bother me anymore," grumbled Moria, as Absalom dashed off to the shelves to buy Solo Leveling.
Moria watched Absalom with disdain, but soon regained his good mood as he eagerly opened the new volume.

"Solo Leveling " Events:
—————————
Jin-Woo was released from the job change quest dungeon early the following morning, returned to his apartment and quickly fell asleep. However, he was abruptly awakened by the ringing of the phone.
"Hello?" Jin-Woo answered.
His little sister's annoyed voice came from the other end, "Huh?! Are you still sleeping?"
"Yeah, I'm a bit tired," Jin-Woo replied.
"Check the time!" Jin-Ah shouted.
"What time is it?" Jin-Woo asked.
"2 o'clock!" Jin-Ah responded.
"What?" Jin-Woo exclaimed.
"Do you remember that you have to come to school today?" Jin-Ah reminded him.
"When do I have to be there?" Jin-Woo asked.
"5 o'clock!" Jin-Ah informed him.
...
..
Upon arriving at the school, Jin-Woo's little sister was confused when she saw his changed appearance, "Are you really Sung Jin-Woo?"
Jin-Woo wondered curiously, "What, is it strange?"
His little sister replied, "Wow... So people can change this much..."
"I'm meeting my sister's teacher, do you want me to come in a tracksuit and slippers?" Jin-Woo joked.
As he entered the school, Jin-Woo caught the attention of the young female students with his handsome appearance.
They whispered to each other, "Wow, who's that?" and "He's so handsome!"
They quickly realized that Jin-Woo was Jin-ah's brother, and began to gossip, "Isn't that Jin-Ah with him? Looks like he's her brother."
Jin-Ah teased, "Wow, you are pretty popular."
"That's right. You don't have a girlfriend, do you? What were you doing last night that kept you out so late? Should I introduce you to a cute student?"
As a punishment, Jin-Woo playfully pulled her cheek and said, Don't make fun of me."
"U...URK! I'M VERY SORRY."
•———•———•———•———•———•———•———•
"..."
"Why did this turn into a slice of life? Where's the shadow army? I want to see them!"
Despite trying to maintain his patience, Moria felt annoyed that there hadn't been a single fight in the first chapter.
"Is this volume called the Red Gate Arc? What is this red gate? Is that means he's going to get into the Demon's Tower again, right?"
Moria felt a surge of excitement at the thought.
"Damn it, keep going! I'll endure these boring scenes..."
"Ah, it's good to be handsome! Only Jin-Woo can compete with me in terms of handsomeness! Kishishishi!"
"Ah... suddenly I want a cute little sister like Sung Jin-Ah..."
"Oh... this child is Han Song-I... What a marvel!"
Unknowingly, Moria found himself enjoying the slice of life scenes.
He wasn't the only one, as everyone reading Solo Leveling at that moment felt the same.
"Oh! Hwang Dong-Su has arrived. No, trouble has arrived!"
Moria was worried about Jin-Woo's safety at this moment.
