One Piece: World Traveler - Chapter 26

Kuzan expression currently was quite a sight to behold, particularly that gaped mouth and shocked reaction while approaching the ruins of the fallen island.

He had quite the difficulties to made it here as the fall of the island made the whole sea stirring, and if it wasn’t for his ice fruit, he would have been swallowed by the angry waves.

‘What a massive island, just the thought of such island falling above Marineford make me uneasy!’

Kuzan bike speed up, and as he approached the island that seems to be divided in multiple small archipelago, he was amazed again.

He could tell that a sword master prowess was the only explanation to such clean cuts that tuned a large island to a huge number of archipelagos.

He could already feel the aura of a familiar breath, thus he was a little bit relaxed. As long as the boy still alive, it doesn’t really matter if Shiki was there or run away.

Kuzan finally made it to the central archipelago that was once the center of the island, and the moment his eyes felt upon the bloody figure along with the rooster like head in his right hand, he was shocked to the core.

Battles that could affect islands already speak volumes about the level of the power that won’t be any lower than Admiral Class.

The fact that the island was turned to such a state could only explain the prowess of Shiki and his sword mastery, still, the boy still survived? and he even got his head?!

‘That bloodied state and that pale face, it seems his regeneration already neared its limits. Still, what a guy! to actually survive this level of battle and even slay a ‘legend’ Impressive!’ Thought Kuzan inwardly, as he approached Aizen.

Robin and co were also approaching the archipelago with baffled expressions.

They clearly saw the state of the large island before the fight, consequently they were in disbelief, that soon hatched to pure reverence and awe.

The news about the fall of the legend shiki soon made it all around the world, and the perpetrator behind his fall was soon revealed, as Aizen turned from gigolo to a powerhouse to beware of.

Whitebeard Territory.

“Oyaji, that Gigolo actually have some skills!” Said Marco with displeasure. He was one of the people that didn’t like Aizen at all. Why? because that gigolo was someone dėsɨrėd even by female pirates, had his own space in BigNews newspaper.

The picture of his bloodied state, a head in his right hand along with the ruined Island behind made him appear very manly, which destroyed every male ȧssumptions.

The whitebeard whose nurses were also watching the newspaper while shrieking ‘sexy, manly!’ was even more pissed off, but he shrugged it away by a sip of his sake.

“Gurararara! The navy finally got themselves a little monster! To think that even Shiki would fall under his hand, he is more monstrous than those three boys. The question is, can they control him? Gurararara!” Laughed the Whitebeard with a meaningful eyes.

“What do you mean Oyaji?” Asked Marco, although he was pissed with that gigolo, it was only on jealousy level, as long as he doesn’t come in their way, they wouldn’t bother with him.

“Stupid son, Do you know what ‘monster’ stand for?” Asked the Whitebeard.

Marco could only shake his head.

“Talent and geniuses are very much appreciated, no one would stand to ruin it, that will also be more intense when the talent is on your own side, but talent and geniuses could be easily controlled and subjugated.

Monsters are different, They aren’t docile at all, you can only control them slightly, but to subjugate them and put them under control?

Gurarararara, Good luck Sengoku!” Whitebeard continued to sip on his sake, while ignoring the confused Marco.

“What a sword play!” He couldn’t help but show his admiration.

Big Mum Territory.

“Mama Mama, Big News!! Shiki Golden Lion got his ȧss owned by a young marine!” A chess soldier made his way inside the Big mum throne room, while relaying the news.

“Hmm, Aizen boya, I really want to have a child with him” Murmured Big Mom as she read through the newspaper. Her drool could be seen flowing as she touched the picture of Aizen.

Kaido Territory.

“Gut Gut Gut, Aah! Shiki old man, you got old, huhuhuhuhu!” Kaido was crying helplessly as he watched the head of Shiki.

“Kaido sama, nowadays, they call that brat the Immortal, it was said that his level of power isn’t much, but his regeneration is even higher than you-” The lackey was immediately interrupted by a flying spike that sent him flying out of the island.

“Immortal? that kid? It should be better if he stay in his gigolo act, if he dared to appear before me, I’ll show him what a true immortal look like! Huhuhuhuhuhuhu, Shiki Old man, you died in vain!” Kaido continued his sake sipping session.

Dressrosa.

Doflamingo with his tongue hanged out read the newspaper, but he was silent. He didn’t knew why, but something soon is about to change.

He could feel the coming wave.

“The Past Era, Already started to fall apart? Fufufufu, Interesting!”

Amazon Lily.

“Aizen sama looks more manly in this picture!” Said The Empress Boa Hancock as she cut Aizen picture and hang it on the walls of her room.

What was surprising, the way she skillfully move her hands, made it obvious it was not her first time.

Gloriossa, also know as Elder Nyon standing at her side couldn’t really retort, but her internal heart was in turmoil.

‘To think a 15-16 year old kid can have this kind of power, it was really scary!’

Hancock already wanted to find him when she heard about his appointment in East Blue, but Elder Nyon stopped her, and somehow convinced her. It was the same period where Hancock got to discover his BigNews space, and started to gather his pictures.

Kuraigana Island

“Interesting! It won’t be this boring anytime soon!” Muttered Mihawk with a shining eyes. He could tell that it wasn’t one sword master there, rather, the two of them were so.

Marine HQ.

After a grand feast and a promotion like ritual, Aizen was already promoted to the the Vice Admiral level.

The marine soldiers were full of respect and reverence towards him.

For them, it doesn’t matter if the old shiki was crippled or weaker than the past years, what was important was that their young Vice Admiral was able to take him down.

Aizen already suspect it was Sengoku behind the curtains.

Aizen explained to them that he was merely thrashed by shiki, and if it wasn’t for his abnormal regeneration and shiki falling in the trap of underestimating him, along with his magical breakthrough in the last seconds.

Aizen also knew that they sent his blood to Vegapunk, sadly, he couldn’t tell much, and his regeneration was still a mystery until now, gaining him the nickname ‘Immortal’.

Sengoku Office.

“Your next mission will be accompanying the Nefertari family to Marie Geoise” Said Sengoku while avoiding eye contact with Aizen.

Aizen could feel something wrong with him, but he wasn’t bothered.

“What for?” Asked Aizen.

“The Royalty Summit, It seems that the last movement of the revolutionary army started to threat the balance of the world!” Answered Sengoku while giving Aizen a side glance.

He knew that he was approached by the Revolution army more than once, and he hoped that he wasn’t swayed by them.

“Threat? Can I not believe it? come on, those suicidal folks actually started to gain importance from the world government?” Teased Aizen.

Sengoku was somehow relieved hearing this comment.

Aizen left the office, and decided to look for Beto Belly to reveal to him his true mission.

“Sigh, That troublesome kid is getting more and more influential lately!” Sighed Garp from the side.

“Damn you Garp, if it wasn’t for the fact that your merits are very high, I would have execute you!!” Shouted Sengoku.

Well, it’s no wonder. Although Garp seems troubled, his joyful and smug expression wasn’t convincing at all.
