Standing behind Bob were 4 people. The female lion mink Luna who was still trying to get her body to adapt to the cold weather. She trained with John for a while, so she was adapt at using daggers and swords.

Next was longleged man, Hassan. Hassan was able to use a dagger well. His sister, Sasha like to fight with her body. She wanted to strengthen her legs and her fist to become deadly weapons.

Lastly, there was Tiffany. Tiffany wasn't human, but she was a stranger creature. Bob knew that she was an elf, but here in the One Piece world they called her kind longear. They were beautiful creatures, but due to them not having any outstanding traits they weren't sold for a high price. Tiffany was true to her elven nature and wielded a bow.

In front of Bob was Dalton, who was wielding his spade, which was a large polearm with an over sized blade.

They were standing outside in the middle of the town.

"Dalton, this is Luna, Hassan, Sasha and Tiffany. They will be under your care for the time being, remember to work them hard."

Bob quickly introduced his team to Dalton.

"I am Dalton, former Royal Guard."

Dalton used a powerful voice to introduce himself.

Luna and the others stood tall, and while Dalton couldn't see their faces due to the demon like mask they were wearing, he could tell they weren't really 'human'.

Dalton pointed at Luna.

"We'll go in order, you're up first."

Luna stepped forward and drew her blade.

Bob was thinking about observing the match, but he changed his mind.

He needed to do other things first, such as buying a building to set up his base. He also wanted to meet Kureha and Tony Tony Chopper. Meeting the two of them were minor things he wanted to accomplish and there was no real reason why he needed to meet with them.

However, meeting the cute little reindeer had its perks.

Bob met with a hunter in town, he heard from Dalton that this owned two buildings. One was used as a storehouse for all his tools, but since he was retiring soon he wouldn't need it anymore.

Bob knocked on the door and an older man in his mid fifties answered. He was shorter than Bob, but the air he was giving off was different. Bob could tell, something was strange about this man.

"Hello, Dalton said you had two buildings, I was wondering if you were willing to sell me one."

The man looked Bob up and down.

"What's with the mask."

"Just how I am."

"I'm not selling the property."

Bob sighed and was about to ask the man if he knew anyone else with a building they wanted to get rid of.

"However, you can do me a favor."

"What's that?"

"I'm getting old, but i've yet to complete my grand hunt. I've always wanted to hunt down a white stag. I've seen it once with my own eyes! I must kill the beast!"

The man said.

"And, what do you want me to do?"

"Like I said, i'm getting old. Bones don't move like they used to. You complete the hunt for me, and you can have the building free of charge."

Bob was interested.

"Where can I find this white stag?"

The man started to rub his chin trying to remember. Bob figured the old age was getting to him, as it took him five minutes to come up with a reply.

"Last I seen, it was by the polar bear den however that was two years ago."

Bob sighed. Two years ago? That thing could be dead by now.

Just as Bob was about to give up, the older man opened his eyes wide at the recollection of some information.

"However, it usually hangs out somewhere in Drum Rockies. That place is empty now that Wapol is gone, so guess its more peaceful over there."

Bob had some slight thoughts of just abandoning this man and his grand hunt, but he had nothing else to do at the moment. Besides, the building was free. Who didn't enjoy free things?

"Drum Rockies huh? I'll check it out."

The man nodded his head.

He watched as Bob walked away, but it felt like he was forgetting to mention something. If he forgot it, it must not have been important.

Bob started walking to the Drum Rockies, he wasn't sure how far it was, but he wouldn't get lost. It was impossible to get lost going there, since the drum shaped mountains were so large you could see them from miles away.

Bob heard growling, lots of growling. He looked and saw polar bears coming out from the forest. Usually they would never be in a pack, but for some reason they were today. They looked at Bob as if he was some delicious snack.

Bob stopped his movement.

"Let's test my strength."

Bob didn't wait for the polar bears to come to him, instead he went straight towards them.

Bob limited himself to not use his skills, he couldn't always rely on them due to their cooldown times. Once he got those two items, he wouldn't need to worry about his cooldown on the skills. He'd be able to use them easily.

It was hard for Bob to deal with the large pack of polar bears, but he succeeded.

Bob clenched his fist together as he started wondering about something.

[You've started to carve your path in the world, daring to try something new, something unheard of. You're a proud member of the Faceless faction, and aren't afraid to show it. However, you aren't done yet, let the world take notice of your strength. You're a pirate hunter, but you've taken up the mantle of a pirate for appearances sake. Take it one step further, and join the marines to advance your rank.]

[Join Shichibukai - Upon completion your character grade will increase to SS, and your strength will grow. A new character slot will be unlocked when your rank increases.]

Bob read the message and grew a bit curious.

This was the first time since he left Dawn island that the system gave him a message. He had the main storyline quest, but as for his faction they never gave him anything. The faction seemed very hands off, giving Bob a lot of freedom.

However, it seems that the faction was also tied to his character grade, which was currently S tier. He thought he was maxed out, but it seems that was not the case.

As for a new character slot, Bob could imagine what it meant. Just like when he chose Kayle to be his champion, the system was giving him a chance to pick one more.

Bob started thinking of things, if that really was the case. Wouldn't that mean he'd obtain more skills?

Bob started to rethink his build.

The vast majority of ideas was causing him to lose his mind. So many builds, so many paths he could choose from. Bob couldn't wait!
