Chapter 68
It was the third day on Dressrosa and also the day that we will be leaving. Of course…
Issho: The Gods have spoken. It is time!
Dad just rolled a 6 on his dice, which means he's going to go and get the Straw Hats and Law.
A few days ago dad and Sakazuki had a fight like usual and he threatened dad that he wouldn't allow him to step in on a Marine Base until he brings him their heads. I was right next to him while they were arguing so I stepped in. It went kind of like this.
Me: Dad, why don't you join Safe Haven? You'll be able to do as you wish then! As a neutral nation, we can do as we wish. Heck, Society is the court between conflict between nations.
Issho: Now that is a tempting offer… what do you think Sakazuki, should I join my daughter?
Sakazuki: Che! Fine, I take back my threat. Just bring me Straw Hat and Luffy's head!
Me: Sakazuki, are you an idiot? I thought you can at least keep a cool head on topics like this. Why, you need me to bring back Kuzan to cool off that hot head of yours?
Sakazuki: *grunt* What do you want to say?
Me: First, Straw Hat and Law are a hero to this nation. The people already lost a lot of their trust in the World Government after what happened here. You really want to Marines to kill their benefactor?
Sakazuki: They're pirates
Me: And heroes. Secondly, Dad's going to be busy transferring Doflamingo to Impel Down. You can't have anyone else do that job. You do realize that it's very likely that Kaido or one of his underlings will try and intercept.
Sakazuki: Of course… that's why your dad's going to catch them right now!
Me: I'll ignore you just like how you ignored my first point. Moving on, the Straw Hats are moving into the second half of the New World. Territories controlled by the Yonko. By our mutual agreement, the only group that can sail to their lands without an official issuing is Safe Haven. Which means that you are by International Agreement not allowed to send my dad to chase Straw Hat Luffy. Unless you want to break that and see what we have in store for those who break the agreement. If you're going to send dad, either ask for permission from them or officially declare a state of war against Big Mom or Kaido. Then we won't interfere.
Sakazuki: … gah! I shouldn't have signed that piece of shit!
Me: If you didn't sign it, the World Government wouldn't have a seat at the committee. Anyway, I'll chase away the Pirates then. Can't have the Marines look like the bad guys can we?
Sakazuki: You'll do that?
Me: Yup, just give them a couple of days to rest. But I still need the Marines to round them up to the Eastern Harbor. If you don't want anyone getting hurt, tell them to remove the soldiers from there as well.
Sakazuki: You do whatever you need to Issho.
Me: Great! See u around Fleet Admiral.
…
…
Me: Want some Soba?
Back to the present
Sengoku and Tsuru were with us here, both very carefree in my opinion.
Me: Dad, please order all the Marines to corner the Pirates to the East harbor. I can do the job of scaring them away.
I then tapped into broadcast system and started talking again, this time specifically to the Pirates.
Me: Hello everyone, this is Kara Fujitora. I have a message to the Straw Hat Pirates, Law, and others who have participated in the war against the Doquixote family. First, we want to thank you for your efforts and support against the tyrannical king; however, you have stayed on this island for 3 days already illegally. It is now time for Dressrosa to rebuild. Please leave the island in the next 30 minutes or we will take action. Thank you.
I heard the Marines start to move and round up the Pirates and get them to leave the island. I guess I should do what dad did last time.
Me: Dad, I'll do the lifting, you do the dropping.
With that, I activated my 1st fruit and the float float fruit and lifted the remains of the war with Doflamingo.
Soon, the very light from the sun was blocked out from the debris and remains of the war, high up in the sky.
Me: Listen up Pirates, I plan to weaponize this debris if you don't leave in the next 30 minutes. Your time begins now
The effect was immediate. Not needing to be repeated twice, the Pirates left Dressrosa without any conflict. Well only skirmish would be when the other filler Pirate crew came from the side and tried to get the escaping Straw Hat crew and his newly formed armada but dad took quick work of that by simply dropping the things I put up for him.
Me: Well, it looks like our work is done. We've got work to do back at Safe Haven, so I think is goodbye dad. It was nice to meet you again as well Sengokgu and Tsuru
Sengoku and Tsuru just smiled. But man, Sengoku really got a lot older in just 2 years. The stress from the Paramount war must have really aged him a lot.
A couple hours later, we were on the Requiem on our way to West Blue to take something nobody used…but also worth trillions without anyone knowing…even our own crew except sis.
On the way, we warned Dragon that his base at Baltigo was leaked by a stray Vivre Card which he thanks us for. In the end, it wasn't needed since they relocated the headquarters to the hidden island of Mycan and used the old place as nothing more than a hideout or an extra storage. In order to prepare a trap for anyone who would dare try, he decided to make the entirety of the place into a death trap. Blackbeard obviously isn't going to like what he hears when news reaches him.
The Reverie was coming up soon and while we were 'invited' up to the Holy City (we always were as a neutral nation), since we were not part of the World Government, we wouldn't be able to make any calls or decisions there. Which was logical, what, did they think we'll go up there and just ordering Kings and Queens around the World to do as I say? Absurd…but that does sound pretty fun.
Something that would be different from Canon would be that Fishman Island would not be sending their people up to the Reverie. As per obvious reasons, they are an Independent Nation and not one that is protected by the Marines. While I am honestly a little worried for them, they'll probably ask us to help and we will if the justification for the war is unjust.
Sarah: At this speed we'll arrive in the hour. But what's so special about here that makes you use your Devil Fruit to this extent?
Me: Private Business, but also very important. Make sure you are always above the clouds, alright? Make sure you are not seen.
I was using my Devil Fruit to make it seem as if we were falling Sideways…towards our destination. Not only that, but I removed air resistance as it was hindering our speed. As a result, the speed at which we were going was nothing short of ridiculous. Imagine falling for a couple hundred kilometers straight without any sort of resistance…
We arrived earlier than Sarah's expectations and we placed ourselves directly above the location. We waited for night to fall before Sis and I descended.
In the middle of the Kano Country was a field of Ice covered Mountains. Under which was treasure stolen, pillaged, robbed from nations all over the World by none other than Don Chinjao. The reason the treasure was even still here was because the Ice was incredibly hard and nobody but Don in his prime with his Drill shaped head could break the Ice and open it.
Me: Sis, it's right under us.
Diana: I know, I can see it was well.
Our logic was…why would you need a drill head to open the ice, when you can just break the entire thing? Of course, there are only a few people in the world which can do that easily but… sis was definitely one of them.
Diana: GEKISHIN!
As a trembling white sphere covered her right hand, she took that and punched the Ice underneath, which immediately gave way to the Earth Shaking power. The Ice strained for a moment before crumbling down, unable to hold its form.
Of course, this action would draw attention so this time I used my skill.
Me: *Lightning Speed*
I became Lightning and shot millions of voltage into the pile of metals of all kinds before me. The moment my electricity conducted, It was sent into my inventory.
As expected, most of Don's treasure was gold, silver, or the sorts. By the very next second, trillions of Beri's worth of treasure was secured in my Inventory.
Before the guards even had a chance to come and check what had happened, sis and I were already back up on the ship.
As we started to head back towards Safe Haven, I had the chance to look into my inventory and just marveled at simply how much there was.
Me: Sis…the amount we have here has got to be at least a sizable portion of the World's Gold. We can turn Safe Haven into a financial superpower as well! Finally.
Safe Haven was rich, not to even begin on 'Society' but unfortunately, just like almost every nation in One Piece, it had a major weakness… Beri. Beri is a currency issued by the World Government and managed by their bank. By using that currency in Safe Haven, which is supposed to be a neutral county would be like Switzerland using Deutch Marks (German currency at the time) during World War 2. The influence the World Government would have on our people if they banned trade, set sanctions, or anything would be disastrous. In order to prevent this, we needed to create our own currency…but it needed to be a strong one. One that wouldn't shake or be easily manipulated by the movement of Beri. Unstable currency is worse than having to rely on another currency…but having our own strong one would create a financial standing ground of our own.
To create a strong currency, the government needs someone of worth to back it up. As we can't simply one day declare it and be done with it. That was why we chose to take Chin Jao's treasure. With this, we can finally create a National Bank instead of ones that are issued and work with the World Government. Who knows? Maybe we'll create something like the traditional Swiss Bank here as well?
*ring* *ring*
Diana: Hello?
Minister: Hello, is this Miss Diana?
Diana: What's going on? Is it an emergency?
Direct lines for us weren't meant to be called for light topics. Only a few people have them, and that's including those at the highest echelons of the World Government.
Minister: The Embassy of the Big Mom Pirates and Germa 66 have officially requested a meeting.
Diana: *sigh* Shit's going to go down and I can feel it already…
