Trinity: Omniverse Traveling Cat 133 The Last Stop Before The Next Great Adventure

"I wanted to see if we could found a cook here, but the situation had changed, with Smoker gone, we have a small window during the time the HQ send reinforcement to hold his position after those lost, Lougue town is now practically devoid of marine, and more importantly, of any force able to stop us, so now, the direction the island. As of last stop before Grand Line, they must have some weapon coated in Kairoseki. It will be our only chance to make on hand on them.

##################################

Departing without giving the restaurant a slight glance, they sail to the island. During the time they would need to rejoin it, Alex looks through the loot he had gathered. Other than a few tons of wood, steel and iron, the food supply was welcomed. Going through the fruit, he stops when he sees a white, light grey, pear with black, wide swirls.

'Don't tell me...'

-Yup, Smoker fruit alright, must have sp.a.w.ned back during your fight with Kreig crew.-

Nodding at Cs words, he forms a second wooden box, putting the fruit inside with a tag on it bearing: 'Moku-Moku no Mi; Logia.', on it. Crating a larger crate, he put it on the first of the three drawers. Looking through his storage, he rapidly found Luffy previous fruit in a similar box. Taking it, he put it in the three drawers, before closing it and leaving the crate in his room, with a rune lock on it.

-What you gonna do with the five other, now that you are a wanted man?-

'I was thinking on cashing in the bounty, but now that we will raid the base, I do not need for them.'

-What about the clown?-

'While Shank will know that I defeat it, we had left no single witness alive. With killing him now and taking care of the body, the marine will still think that he is alive.'

##################################

While he was spoking with CS, he had made his way in the hold, before standing in front of the prison-crate. As they were gagged, blinded and their hearing suppressed, none a single of the five know that someone was here. Drawing his knives, he stabs each of them in the throat.

##################################

The travel had asked them three other days, and only thank the engine did they rejoin it so early.

Taking a pair of the binoculars left in the steering room for this particular usage, he takes a glance on the slowly drawing harbour. Other than fisherman boats and shipping ships, not a trace of Pirates of Marines ships where seen.

"Seems that they don't what to let the news know until they had sent a force to the island."

"No sign of Marines ships, then Captain?" Asked Tashigi behind the wheel.

"Not for now, no. But it will be easier."

An hour later, their ships dock without problem as they still didn't hoist their pirate flag. On the deck, the five were reunited.

"Alright, each of you knows what to do." Said him by taking wads of Berrys from his storage, before giving them each five. "Here are five million each. Nami, I want you to turn the town library and shop, by all books and navigating material you need, be sure to grab at least two Log pose, it better to have some in stock." Looking at her, he sees her nod back. " Nojiko, you are on supply duty, take everything that you will need." Say him then, turning to her, before making the cart appear for her to move more freely." Kuina, you are in charge of transmission duty, by using all type of Denden mushi you think we will need. Be sure to at least partially conceal your appearance. I don't want marines to take you for Tashigi. Speaking of it, Tasighi and I will go for the base. Once you have everything, return here and put it away, I will leave a little more of cash here in case it wasn't enough. If there some left, use it for anything taking your fancy."

##################################

As they all separate, the ex-marine lead him to her previous base. Due to the 'provisory' absence of Smoker, most of the marines were outperforming patrol to dissuade the potential pirates in town to make any wave by showing a strong military presence. Due to this, they were barely unrestrained when they arrive. While he would have taken down the entire base like had done each time, it wasn't the moment to be spotted.

"That way." Say Tashigi, leading him through the corridors of the main construction in the base, they arrive at a partially concealed staircase leading underground. "Only the officers are made aware of this staircase, it leads to the high-security jails and vault of the base."

Nodding at her, they descend. Pa.s.sing the empty jails, they soon found a vault similar to the one found on Nezumi base, but larger. Putting a hand on the wall on the side of the vault door, he trans.m.u.tes the entire vault, creating a s.p.a.ce, and isolating it from the rest of the structure. At the same moment, his hand came in contact with the vault' door, absorbing it in his storage while think beam of wood was left behind to support the weight of the structure above.

Done, they made their way back, before turning to another, smaller, construct linked to the main building. Unlike the vault, the door was only locked with a thick padlock. A quick trans.m.u.tation later, the two enter the marines' base' weapon supply.

Taking in the rack of swords, Metalic bô, spears, crates of gunpowder and bullets, he turns to the left weapon, nets. Just by the look, he could tell that not all were the same, while they were a vast number of 'normal' one, around fifty or so, he sees ten bulkier on the side, with round pieces of metal on the crossing knots.

Smirking, he absorbs all of them, before taking the cuffs as well, knowing that they should have some made with it too. Thinking for a while, he says.

"Take me to his office, they may have some interesting information in."

Nodding, they once again enter the building, dodging the odd patrol in the corridors, before entering in Smoker office. Rather than losing his time to search it, he takes everything, leaving the room bare, before they escape through the window, climbing on the base roof, before jumping on the nearest roof and vanish.

##################################

Having zero interest in the town, Alex made his way back to the ship, after leaving Tashigi with the same amount of money that the girl for her.

Taking the vault out of his storage on the deck, he trans.m.u.tes the door into ingots, before looking inside it. As he was thinking, the vault was containing a large amount of money. The wads were arranged neatly in crates, while some of them contain golden coins. With a rapid calculus through his storage, he counts 2,500,000B in coins of 500B. Seeing the small amount he trans.m.u.tes it into a gold ingot, rising they value.

Storing the crate directly, he was surprised to see some doc.u.ment in the vault, as well as a small wooden chest. Opening it, he found a Devil Fruit.

'CS?'

-On It! ... And done! Sub-Sube no Mi. The fruit that the whale would have found in another timeline. For all we know, the only other Devil Fruit in this sea, after Ace had found his MerMera on Sixis.-

Storing it with the Gomu-Gomu, he takes out his built forge, taking out different ingots of metal, diamonds from Arlong park, the nets and cuffs of the base.

Putting the ingots in the crucible in the appropriate proportion, he reduces to dust the diamonds, adding it to the mix.

Separating the cuffs and nets from they kairoseki, he put into the crucible, and start to slowly breathe fire on it. Bringing the temperature higher, the metals start to melt like b.u.t.ter, turning into a viscous substance, before turning bright yellow and into a more liquid state. Taking a trans.m.u.ted diamond rod, he stirs the mixture slowly, making sure that all the element were perfectly mixed, he trans.m.u.tes the different casting from baked clay.

Taking the tongs, he tightly grips the crucible containing the ten kilos of bubbling molten metal, pouring it into the casting of his knife. Returning the crucible on the forge before breathing on another flame to keep the temperature high enough, he flash-plunge the cast into the water tank below, lowering the temperature of the blunt shape.

Taking the form out of it, he starts to pound on the metallic shape. With a periodical blast of flame, another knife rapidly takes form, before being plunged into the oil to fix his final shape. After sharpening and inscribing the previous runes, he soon replicates the process four other times.

Done with his knives, he re-creates two of Nami three-part staff, before creating two katanas. The rest of the metal was trans.m.u.ted into an ingot after cooled down.

##################################

'Time for an experiment.'

Descending to the cells, he takes off the box hiding Baggy face, and drain the water. Drawing his fives knives, he mercilessly hacks at the sleeping and clown, removing all four limbs and nose. Waken from the sudden excursing pain, He didn't have time to yell before being slashed by the two katanas. Rapidly losing his blood from the cuts, his head was finally smashed open by the staff.

Nodding at the working weapons, he turns the body into parts, cleaning the cell by storing them with the rest.

##################################

While the duo was plundering the marine base, Nami was strolling the streets, looking for her target. Smirking at the gaze she receives from male and female alike, she scowls when she catches three particular men. They had been following her since she exits the dock and separated from her sister and Kuina.

Wanting to be done with, she turns to the first back street she crosses.

'As expected.' Sighing when she feels them follow, she hears.

"You're in the territory of the Bartolomeo club, their a fee to pay f you don't want to be..." Before the man could finish his third-rate villain line, he let an agonising scream when a pointed h.e.l.l came to slam into his manhood.

With eyes rolling in the back of their orbits, he lost consciousness from the sheer pain he was felling, slamming limply on the ground. The two on his say whiten why reflexively hold their bits, feeling fantom pains with just the sight.

"The only one allowed to retrieve anything from me his hubby, then again, he always made sure to leave my purse full of liquid."

Laughing lightly at her salacious comment, she made the two other stooges rejoin their buddy as they understand what she was saying.

The three unconscious, she loots then, founding few hundreds thousand Berrys in a backpack, of the one that had spoked, he was wearing.

"Thank for the contribution!" say her while kissing a 5,000B note.

Returning to the alley, she found the shop she was aiming for, after enquering for the locals.

Hearing the bell on the door, the dozing middle-aged man at the counter straighten.

"Welcome to Logue town premium Grand Line shop! We have a large selection of navigation wears for all type of clients!" Greet him a little more enthusiastic than necessary.

"You do receive a lot of clients, is it?" Ask Nami dryly at the man exuberance, making him deflate a little.

"Ever since that d.a.m.n marine captain his catching all pirate coming here. While I'm grateful they look over for our safety, they are killing our commerce."

"I imagine." Say her compa.s.sionately, before looking at the shop items. Spotting some curious gla.s.s bubble containing compa.s.s needle inside, she came nearer, soon rejoin by the man.

"Our last supply of Log Pose, not that the thing had been edited since the last century at least. An indispensable tool for anyone wishing to sail on the Grand Line."

Looking at them, she could see that some were pointing toward a certain direction while the other was lazily spinning on themselves. The other difference was also the price range. The static one were displayed from 150,000 to 400,000 and any range in between, while the spinning one were only at 100,000.

"Why do some move and others don't?" Asked her.

"The static one is Eternal pose. A set log poses that will always point toward the set island, no matter what. the spinning one is Log pose. They are cheaper because they are blank."

,

Nodding at the explanation, she remembers Alex word, telling her that they would only need Log pose, once he had studied them he would be able to create the eternal pose.

"Alright, I will take..." She was about to say three before she spots a bow at the foot of the shelve. "What about the one in the box?"

Hear her, he sighed." Their defective product, the gla.s.s is either cracked of the instrument is damaged, it happens something, during their routing. The last batch particularly, I have nearly only that. I was about to throw them."

"How about selling them to me for 100,000B, and I will take three Log pose?"

He looks at her surprised. "Why would you want damaged goods?"

"Hubby like to study things, if it broken goods, he won't fear to damage them entirely."

"If your sure, you can have them freely, they were about to be wasted anyway." Say him shrugging, as all his good were warranted, and he had already received the money back for them after an expert of the manufacturer had pa.s.sed.

"Thank you!" Say her with a large smile. Leaving the man take them to the counter, she browses the aisles of books, taking all on the other blues as well as cartography supplies for her maps. Adding her items to the three log pose, he gives him the final sum.

"That will be a total of 785,560B."

Any other time she would have haggled, but she did receive ten free Log pose, so she pays without a word, before taking the crate he had generously given, while he sends her off with a large smile on his face, happy that the transaction of the day would give him some breathing room.

##################################

Having taken a few hours to crafts the weapons, he wasn't surprised to see the girls already there when he climbed up.

Other than the supplies they would need, he could see some wooden crates in the cart, and Tashigi holding few blades with her, happily.

"Alright, does anyone had found all they need?"

"Yep," start Nami, rolling the 'p', happily." The town didn't have more than three shops selling the log pose. Since they have difficulty selling them since Smoker was here, capturing all pirates, I was able to have ten more for the three I had brought, this way, each of us would be able to have one, just in case." Say the orangette, while giving each to them a gla.s.s bubble mounted on a wooden bracelet, containing a compa.s.s needle. "The others are broken, but I'm sure it won't hinder you."

Nodding at Nami, he trans.m.u.tes two with cracked gla.s.s, returning them to their pristine form, and gif one to Nami, taking the other for him and storing the others for later.

"Other than the ones we had taken from the marines, the store didn't have more, we will need to enter the Grand Line for them." Say Kuina while shaking her head when he looks at her.

"I was able to take them from a store I know!" Say Tashigi while showing them the blades she has. "That stingy old man didn't recognize me and tried to scam me for Shigure, so I knocked him out and taken his best weapons!"

Alex was still marvelling at the change in Tashigi, it was not she had completely changed, just as if a repressed part was slowly emerging. From her somewhat childish action, it must have been a repressed childhood that she was receiving by now being free of nearly any constraint. Looking at the blade, he recognizes the Sandai Kisetsu and Yubishiri along with three others he didn't know.

##################################

After everyone helped to store any supplies and start to sail toward Grand Line, he calls them back on the deck.

"I have some present for everyone." He takes the weapon, giving them to the four. Unlike the previous clear white-blue metal, those had a darker shine to them, from the kairoseki. "They are made with the same metal than my knives, mixed with kairoseki, so while being even more st.u.r.dy, they greatly work on Devil Fruit user. I gifted you a generic bô for you two because I still working on your weapon, Kitten, and Nojiko, we still don't know what you will prefer, so it has to do for now."
