《One Piece: The Elder Twin》Chapter 13: Heading off to Fish-man Island!
Advertisement
Well, according to the map which Aokiji so kindly allowed me to look at, we had already passed Mariejois, we just took a detour because I was hungry. Now that we’ve headed back on track, I can finally see fish-man for my own eyes!
Although, in the midst of my excitement I caught something on the desk within the cabin. I guess it’s no surprise he has a bunch of papers about the Ohara incident, he was the one who let Nico Robin escape and in a few years he’ll find her with the straw hats. Then again, I only know what the anime and manga have told me, it would be interesting to get his own perspective, so I headed out of the cabin and yet again was he sitting on a chair and reading the news!
“Hey, lazy-butt, tell me about this.” I demanded, he diverted his gaze towards me and put his paper down.
“Oh, you found the documents on the Ohara incident, I should have put them away.” He stood up and made his way towards me, since he shows very little emotion I’m unsure if he’s worried I found it. “You read it, so you should know all about it.”
“Who's the demon child?” I questioned. Since Aokiji let her escape he should know who she is.
“It’s a girl who escaped the incident and is wanted because of her desire to bring destruction upon the world.” He explained, taking the documents from me, he wasn’t very open about it, but then again no one would be very open to talking about treachery.
“No details...?” He went back into the cabin and placed the documents on his desk.
“There’s nothing more you need to know.” He came back out and looked off into the distance, patting me on the back afterwards. “We’re here, so prepare to board the ship.”
“I’m pretty sure it’s prepare to dock, then leave the ship, then restock, then board the other ship.” I explained to him, he shook his head.

“No, the world noble wants to leave instantly, so we board their ship and we head down to fish-man island.” Aokiji clarifies. I know they’re some pompous twats, but I was thinking it was just exaggerated. I didn’t think such arrogant people existed.
“That really sucks, I kind of wanted to see what it would look like...” I grumbled, Aokiji then tapped me on the shoulder and in his hands he held a golden staff.
“The so-called weapon you asked for, here it is.” He handed it to me, I was elated from his words! I had decided on the weapons I was to use, it’s a staff made of gold! I know, it’s identical to Enel’s, but in consideration I don’t think there was any better metal for me to use. Gold is the third most conductive element and with the added corrosion resistance, I think it’s pretty good as well! I did slightly confuse Aokiji when I asked for a golden staff, but he still got it nevertheless.
I took it with haste, staring at it like a child in a toy store. I admit that at this point I don’t think I’ll be able to use it to its full power, since I’m fairly average in using my devil fruit, but it’s useful still!
“I thought you were against me hitting the Celestial Dragon.” I jokingly say.
“I am not endorsing it.” He clarifies, although he did that back at Cocoyashi Village.
“You gave me a weapon right before we meet them, if you’re not endorsing it then what on Earth are you doing?” I suppose in the end I still have a desire to hit one of the world nobles, but I don’ think I’ll be prepared for anything that comes afterwards.
“Enough joking, we’re here.” Aokiji declared, his voice cold and cut. We did arrive, although it was somewhat annoying that we were merely just below where the actual place was. In the distance was a towering building, luxurious at that, it was hard to believe that this place existed in such a world. A lot of fog did cover what I could see.

The ship docked and we headed off, although I wanted to explore the port I was instantly directed by Aokiji to another ship aside ours. It was coated, a preparation for those who intended to head underwater, although that was the most obvious give-away, there was also the world-government flag. Aokiji led me onto the ship, or dragged more likely, and there I finally met a world noble! Oh, excuse me, I mean unbearable prick.
“Oh, Admiral, you’ve finally arrived, I’ve been waiting for so long... and who is this?” Mjosgard, the world noble who would shipwreck in fish-man island. Although things start out rough, he eventually ends up getting a document which was nicknamed the hope of fish-man island.
“This is my apprentice, she will also be apart of the expedition.” Aokiji explained, although the prick only had a look of disdain. I am helping him and he’s only irritated by it? No gratefulness? What a dick.
“Let’s hope she won’t be much of a problem.” He remarked, only to walk away.
“What an unbearable assh-” Aokiji put his hand over my mouth before I could finish what I was saying, he shook his head.
“You must learn that if you are to be a marine then you must do things such as this.” Aokiji explained. Even if he’s an arrogant twit, I guess Aokiji does have a point. After all, I’ve done something similar haven’t I? I allowed Belle-Mere to die and for Nami to become a slave to Arlong essentially. I suppose I somewhat make a good marine in that case... “something wrong? You’ve become silent for once.”
“I’m trying to resist hitting the guy.” Aokiji raised his hand to signal the crew on-board the ship to set sail, he made his way to the front of the ship and I followed after him.
“Something tells me that it will be a lot harder when we reach fish-man island.” Well, he’s not wrong. I know that he’s going to treat all the fish-men like rubbish, although now that Aokiji is here, the situation may play out a little different.
“What about the Shichibukai, have any thoughts on him?” I’m quite uncertain about where Aokiji stands in terms of the Shichibukai, he was happy for Crocodile’s defeat that’s for sure. However, he stayed silent when I asked him... for the fiftieth time. “Come on, do you hate him that much that you can’t express it in a way without being angry?”
“For your training, you improved a lot, but you appear to have only developed three ways to use your devil fruit.” Aokiji blatantly changes the topic, I suppose the Shichibukai aren’t something he’s fond of, or he’s still treating me like a child...
“I created a bunch more, but I didn’t use them. There’s one which can change climates on a severe level, another which is immeasurably powerful! Although the latter I can’t use yet... requires a hell of a lot more to do.” I complied with the topic change and even explained some new techniques I had to Aokiji, although I didn’t mention one. I decided that I had to implement something similar to a gear, otherwise I’d be too weak as I am now. It’s sort of like Gear Second, although it doesn’t really involve my blood-vessels in any way...
“I see...” Aokiji didn’t really appear interested, I guess the topic was just his scapegoat, or I still haven’t mastered guessing his expressions.
“This... is going to be a long trip.” I groaned.

8 241Transcendence?
Author's Comment: I was asked about reading my work on other sites. The answer is simple: Currently I am not active in any other networks than royalroadl.com. Only here, I correct mistakes and errors. If you read it anywhere else and have to pay for it, or have to deal with an annoying amount of advertisement, You Are Being Betrayed. You would do good if you make other people in that network aware of it. This is a free project of mine for the purpose of having fun. And if people try to make money with it you shouldn't bother visiting their website. The only one whom I actually allowed to have my work on his website is Armaell who invested the time to compile them into pdf. (http://armaell-library.net/author/andur) ——————————————————————————————— Reading Order of the Multiverse-Books ——————————————————————————————— Transcendence? is a novel about reincarnation, love, hate and war. And everything else that's included. It follows the main characters, as they climb to the top of their society. And lose their humanity in the process to become something beyond human. It's settled in the same universe as Until death?. It can be seen as a prequel. But I plan for it to be a stand alone book. Nobody has to read Until death? in order to enjoy Transcendence?. There will be cool chapters, sad chapters, romantic chapters and funny chapters. Of course there will be boring chapters too. I believe that some explanation is necessary in every novel. Though I hope that there will be more funny chapters. How a chapter turns out always depends on my mood.
