Marigoa:
In the private flower garden of Imu within the Pangaea Castle, amidst lawns, flowers, and beautiful butterflies, some bees could be seen hovering from one flower to another.
Sitting on a comfortable sofa in the garden was Rob, with a luscious woman sitting across from him.
"So, what do you want to discuss with me... I have to remind you that we are enemies. I came here not because I trust you, but because I am confident in myself," he said.
Imu chuckled. "Haha~ no need to try to clarify what is known."
"I trust that if the Five Elders see me having a drink with their beloved Lord, the expression on their face will be pleasant to see," Rob said sarcastically.
Imu found this amusing. "Wow, Let's see their fun facial expressions then," she said, about to band her fingers when Rob stopped her.
"Hey, are you crazy? I was just kidding," he exclaimed.
"Tsk, that's no fun," Imu pouted momentarily, behaving like a child whose toys were taken away.
"Anyway, I wanted to discuss with you about... how much do you know about me? Do you think that I am the same person as the one who will one day appear in the manga at the head of the Five Elders?" she asked calmly.
Rob's eyes narrowed in confusion.
"At least you have something in common with your version in the manga," he said after deep thought.
"Hmm, and what is it?" Imu asked curiously.
"Eyes," Rob summed up his words in one word.

"One Piece" Events:
—————————
"Hey, Mister... Why is that floating?" Luffy asked curiously, pointing to the island ship.
"Hm? Oh, that, " Shiki paused for a moment before continuing," it's the power of the Float-Float Fruit."
"Whatever I touch, I can levitate it and control it regardless of gravity,"
Shiki touched a dumbbell on the deck saying, " Watch."
"What is it?" Usopp and the rest of the crew approached so that they could clearly see the result of the experiment.
As soon as Shiki raised his hand the dumbbell rose into the air as if there was no gravity to hinder it, or rather its weight was canceled.
The dumbbell fell again after Shiki stopped controlling it and Zoro caught it easily.
"Wow! Mister! Make me float too!"Luffy shouted excitedly.
"Me too! Me too!" Shouted Chopper too.
"Jihahahaha! Too bad. It doesn't work on humans other than myself, or on animals or other living creatures," Shiki explained.
"What? That's no fun." Luffy was annoyed.
"Boo! Boo!" Usopp and Chopper too.
Shiki walked to the mast and sat down before speaking, " In any case, I'm inviting you to my hideout."
"As a token of my appreciation. You'll come, won't you?" asked Shiki.
"Thanks, but no. We have to go to the East Blue," replied Luffy.
"Ehh, Luffy?!" The rest of the crew reacted noisily after hearing this.
"Wh-Wh-What about our adventure?!" asked Usopp.
"We can start over anytime. You can't just sit back and watch your hometown get destroyed, can you?" said Luffy, smiling.
"W-Well..." Usopp stumbled.
"It's decided, then." Sanji took another cigarette.
"Are you serious?" asked Nami, still shocked.
"Y-Yeah... You're right. Good." Usopp felt happy after finally hearing this from his Captain, no doubt he was worried and afraid for the safety of his homeland.
"So! No need for thanks, "Luffy told Shiki.
"I like you even more now!" exclaimed Shiki.
"I see. You guys are from East Blue, huh? You must be worried, then." said Shiki.
"All right. I'll use my powers and take you there." Shiki decided.
"Really?! Thanks, mister! You're a nice guy!" Luffy felt very happy after hearing that.
Using the power of the Golden Lion Shiki, Sunny Go flew up into the sky smoothly behind the island ship.
...
..
"Look! I see something!" exclaimed Chopper after seeing so many islands hanging in the sky.
Merveille and the surrounding islands appeared in a very picturesque scene.
Islands with surrounding seas! Islands with their rivers and forests, each island has a different ecosystem.
"This is incredible!" Luffy shouted in disbelief.
"Are they floating because of your powers?" asked Usopp with amazement.
"Yes. Once I make something float, it keeps on floating," said Shiki.
"Whao! That island is enormous!" Luffy pointed to the huge island in the middle.
"We're here." thought Shiki.
"Well, then..." He walked towards Nami and then his expression changed to a sly one.
"This is Merveille! A perfect island for adventures like yourselves! Enjoy it to your heart's content!" exclaimed Shiki.
The crew reacted when it was too late, Shiki picked up Nami and sent everyone flying, as they dispersed on different islands.
"The navigator is mine!" Shouted Shiki.
"Nami!!" Luffy tried to stretch but under the control of Shiki, Sunny Go fell on them.
"Luffy! Guys!" Nami screamed at the sight of the scene of her Nakama falling into the unknown.
"Jihahahaha! jihahahahaha!"
Only the sound of Shiki's laughter echoed at this moment.
--This was Shiki's first victory over straw hats.--

Ohara:
"Wow, the Fuwa-Fuwa no Mi is such an amazing Devil Fruit!" exclaimed one reader in awe.
"What's wrong with this Devil Fruit? Why is it so overpowered? This is insane!" exclaimed another reader, nearly popping their eyeballs out of their sockets.
"How amazing would it be if I could eat this Devil Fruit and freely soar through the sky, and move anything with just a touch! I'd practically be a Sky God!" gushed another reader, lost in a daydream.
...
"Heh, these weaklings think they'll become as powerful as the Golden Lion just by eating his Devil Fruit," sneered Doflamingo.
The thing Doflamingo despised the most was stupidity, and he always held disdain for those he deemed unintelligent, as he believed it directly led to weakness.
In Doflamingo's opinion, Luffy was not stupid at all.
...
Flying Island Merveille:
"Huh? Seriously?" Kaido was puzzled.
"Did he just call you a nice guy?"
"Wororororo! A nice guy, Wororororo!" Kaido laughed until his eyes teared up.
"Jihahahahaha! He didn't lie. I really treated them kindly. I offered them a free adventure on my territory. Isn't this the work of a nice guy like me?" Shiki laughed as he spoke.
He really liked the way he tricked the Straw Hats.
"Anyway, my Devil Fruit is the best Devil Fruit that has appeared in the manga so far. Is there a rival?" Jihahaha!" Shiki announced arrogantly.
...
..
"The strange thing is, do they not know about the Golden Lion? This is not possible. After all, 20 years of disappearance cannot erase the prestige of the name of a great pirate." This time King spoke, who always reads manga from the perspective of someone who reads for understanding, so he can't be seen laughing.
"Oh, it can be said that Luffy may not know, but what about Robin? Someone like her, I don't think is unfamiliar with the name of the Golden Lion," King continued explaining.
Suddenly the sound of annoying footsteps came from the side, and Dr. Indigo entered the hall.
"What are you trying to say, Dr. Indigo? Are you trying to merge with your character in the manga?" Shiki wondered after seeing his subordinate speaking in sign language using the annoying sound of his shoes.
"Oh, I understand. Mom finally arrived!" exclaimed Shiki.
"Obviously, I'm saying that your trick with Straw Hats was perfect!" Dr. Indigo slapped Shiki in a scene similar to their characters in the manga.
"Tsk, are these the symptoms of clotted brain hemorrhage in your head due to a steering wheel? Pathetic," Kaido felt pity for his ally who had begun to develop dementia.
"Jihaha! It's just a reenactment of the events of the manga. Don't be boring, Kaido," Shiki laughed.
"Anyway, I want to see what the situation is in the East Blue. Was the experiment successful? We will see what will happen next. In the end, we will decide how we will change the experiment towards a more successful factor," said Shiki.
Kaido smiled after finally hearing something serious.
That's why he decided to ally with this man. He can plan almost anything.
...
Syrup Town:
"How will they survive this?" Banshina asked, enjoying reading the events of the manga.
She had just finished quilting the storyline, which included a flashback of Shiki's encounter with the Straw Hats.
"They're going to kick the Golden Lion's ass, isn't that obvious?" Yasopp said as he hurriedly carried two trays of drinks to serve customers.
"I don't see any way they can make it work. If it really happens, it would be completely illogical," Beck replied. Like Yasopp, he was also holding a lot of drinks.
Banshina laughed and said, "This view deserves to remain immortal," as she filmed both of them using her phone's camera.
