"Here we are. This is Alabasta. One of the allies of the World Government." I looked at a huge area of desert from afar.
I could see a pale golden color while the submarine slowly emerged to the surface.
"Hmph. I see. Isn't this city belonged to one of the most dangerous sites to visit now?" Yamato read the newspaper.
"Correct."
"Before going to Alabasta, you said we should look for Nefertari Vivi, the princess of the Alabasta Kingdom. What made you change your decision?"
"Vivi is a daughter of the king Nefertari Cobra. Her father is one of the kindest kings in this world at the moment. I admit. He is the best king that I have seen so far. As long as Vivi is on our side, the crisis will be easy to solve. To put it simply, I want to approach the situation with the easiest solution. Without her, The problem is harder to deal with since people don't trust strangers easily" I explained meticulously and easily to understand.
"Besides, I long for a fighting. I haven't fought anyone since I left Wano."
"But the newspaper says Nefertari Cobra is the cause of making the country fall into crisis war."
"What's written on paper? Don't believe it so fast. Let me tell you one reason why I am willing to help King Nefertari Cobra. For free" I looked around to check for any suspicious spots.
After checking for a while, I was sure that no CP was near.
"King Nefertari Cobra knows a little bit about Void Century. I want to make him feel that he is in heavy debt so he can easily tell me what the previous king had told him."
"Void century. What makes you obsessed with the time when no record was written?"
"Many things." I opened my arms widely. "Yamato. Have you ever wondered what is laid beyond the sky?"
"Beyond the sky. Hmm. Let's me see." Yamato closed her eyes and laid her hands on her jaw.
"Nothing is there. Maybe a sun."
"He he he. Wrong." I replied and explained why Yamato was wrong "There is a civilization out there. I have gone to that place and I see it. There is even a space pirate. We will go out and explore when we are strong enough."
What I said wasn't without evidence.
In the Skypiea arc, when Enel was defeated by Luffy and got launched to the moon with his ship.
At first, I thought Enel would be dead since there was no oxygen in space.
However, he survived.
This proves that the air on the moon is breathable.
How can it be possible?
The answers should be laid in the story, fairy tale, or in the Void century. Some were real stories. But those stories were simplified after each generation with their view and perspective. Making it hard to trace the past with story alone.
For example, whoever eats Devil Fruit will be hated by the ocean and that person will never be able to swim. This is common knowledge in this world. If something opposes nature then science is one of the candidates.
I suspected human science at that time reached the apex. If there were civilization with high technology existed before then the origin of the Devil Fruit was born as a result of science.
There were 3 natural types of Devil Fruit. Zoan, Logia and Paramecia.
Recently, there appeared another type of Devil Fruit. I called it Lab. Like its name, the Lab Devil Fruit is created by science. I was currently researching this new type of Devil Fruit with all my efforts.
"Quick question, Yamato. Can you live on the moon?"
"The moon. Let me see. If you say there is another civilization out there then it's possible." Yamato answered.
"You are correct. We can live on the moon. This is another tale for another day." I confirmed her answer.
Making a moon environment from a dead planet to a habitat place was a big feat.
Not many universes can do that.
"Okay. That is our far far far topic. We will discuss this later. Let's focus on what is before our eyes first." I redirected the topic back.
"Where are we? Right. If we can't find Vivi ourselves then let her approach us instead."
"But how? I don't know what her personality likes so how can we make her come to us."
"Don't make things complicated. Things are simpler than you thought. Let me ask you. When you see a wounded cat. What will you do?" I opened a map planning a route.
"I will help it."
"There are many kinds of people with many different answers. However, the most common answer is to ignore it or take care of it. As a caring princess, she will come back for her citizen at all costs."
"I see."
"I have already decided. Alabasta will be under my jurisdiction from now on." my leg stepped on the handrail of the submarine.
"Since it is under my jurisdiction, Marines aren't allowed to stay since they are a hindrance." I pointed at the Marine station.
"It's time to send our message to the Marines."
"If they don't care about Alabasta anymore, Alabasta will be mine from now on. Full speed." the submarine moved at high speed approaching the Marine station.
A marine who was patrolling saw an approaching submarine. The monocular was taken out.
Through it, he could see a famous pirate in the East Blue area approaching the Marine base.
"Oh my god." he immediately pressed the button to alert the base.
A Horn howled the whole base.
"Pirate attacks. Pirate attacks."
The soldiers immediately gathered at the port with their weapons in their hands.
They could see a person who was standing on the ocean.
Only after observing more carefully, they realized Yamato was standing on the submarine.
When they saw Yamato, they wanted to run away with their weapons left behind them.
They all had heard of Yamato's feats.
"Where is our Vice Admiral." A voice rang out in demand of the superior's existence.
"He was dead. A new Vice Admiral didn't come yet. We must stall time. Waiting for our reinforcement." A Captain said.
"Draw your weapon. Stable your spirit," he shouted out.
When reaching close enough, Yamato jumped off the submarine and dove into the front line with many muzzles pointing at her.
"You scum of the sea" the Captain charged at Yamato with a sword.
Yamato unsheathed. The next second, Yamato was standing behind him.
"Feeling the cold of hell." Yamato sheathed her sword. A cold wind brushed Captain's body before a slash of ice formed on his body.
"Captain is defeated in one move. We stand no chance." A scary marine shouted out loud making other marine's spirit depleted.
They chose to throw their gun and run for their precious life.
Other Marines chose to fight back.
"Take down her"
A barrage of bullets flew towards Yamato. With one sweep, Yamato created a wind wall that was strong enough to stop bullets.
Using the smoke created by gunpowder, Yamato flew to the sky.
"Earth shattering" A huge white slash appeared plummeting to the ground.
"Oh my god."
The Marine base was divided and was slowly sunk.
"I have done with my job, Yamato."
"That's great. It's my turn." I received Yamato's response and surveyed the area.
I drew a magic circle using my vision.
"From now on, Alabasta is under my jurisdiction." Many huge water pillars slowly raised and founded into a wall surrounding Alabasta.
"No Marines. No CPs. No World Government. And no pirate." I cast a powerful curse that was strong enough to last for 1000 years.
"Who dares to enter by force will be punished by the wrath of mother of nature." I dripped my blood into the ocean. My blood became one with the ocean.
"With this, Alabasta is officially under my control."
At Marine Headquarters.
"Urgency. Move out of my way" A Marine approached to inform his superior.
He opened the door of Sengoku's workroom hurriedly.
"What's wrong?" Sengoku asked. The dark circles were formed under his eyes.
"Pardon, Fleet Admiral. Our base in Alabasta's kingdom was destroyed by Yamato. We also received a strange report that our Marines fleet got attacked by water spikes while they were on their way to assist Marine station at Alabasta."
"Water Spikes. Is this some kind of attack from the Fishman tribe?"
"No, Sir. This wasn't a work of the Fishman tribe."
"You can go now. I will deal with it very soon" Sengoku waved to him to indicate that he could leave now. Sengoku was too tired to solve the problem. He needed some proper rest to back his prime.
World Noble, Marines got attacked by a mysterious person. Again.
He thought that guy would take some time to hide. Unexpectedly, he attacked right at the moment when Marines were on high alert.
Many navies were struggling with their stomach after eating the poisonous food. Not only food, but water was also poisonous.
Somehow, the trace was perfectly erased without any clues. He had to rack his brain to find the culprit with little clue.
An unprecedented beast was lurking around the Marines' base.
The Marine was in the weakest state in the entire history thanks to the culprit named X. He had 2 choices.
He had to solve it now or retire.
"Yes, Sir." the marine left the room.
"One of the World Government's founders gets attacked. I must dispatch someone to solve it as soon as possible." Imagining the scene where he was scolded by Five Elders again, he couldn't bear it.
Sengoku looked at the picture on the table. The picture was Yamato attacking marines at Alabasta.
It reminded him of the past when Akainu insisted on giving her a high bounty.
He didn't know why Akainu was energetic on this person.
But to survive Akainu's attack, that person must be strong.
His trembling hands from working too much slowly reached out for the Den Den Mushi on the table.
He dialed a certain candidate for the Admiral seat.
"Aramaki. I may need you to help me with something if you have some time"
"Sure. What is that?" A snail replied.
"One of the World Government's founders got attacked by a pirate recently. I need you to come to eliminate or capture if necessary."
"Okay. Give me the address and I will come."
