An eerie silence covered the deck of the Knight pirates' ship until it was broken by their princess's voice...

"Oy Leon, what are you talking about?" Eden asked after seeing the helpless look on her Knight's face.

However, it was Yurei that responded with a wicked smile and said "Oh, so you guys didn't get the news about Yuki becoming the new warlord huh… How pathetic"

'Whose fault do you think that is?' Yuki couldn't help but shoot Yurei a weird look… This fucking ghost threw these people on an empty island and still has the nerve to say such a thing…

"New Warlord… Don't tell me…" Eden's face was filled with shock and despair as she stared at Yuki's face on the poster Leon was holding… Now she understood why he wasn't affected by her poison… This man is a monster!

"What! Warlord?" Panic quickly spread among the injured soldiers and despair covered their faces…

However, a white light suddenly flashed and attacked Yuki and Yurei again!

It was Leon who used his unique swordsmanship and quickly yelled "I will hold these two back, escort her highness away at any cost!"

'This guy is strong, and his swordsmanship is quite unique… Interesting, he might be useful' Thought Yuki calmly before he smirked and landed a heartless blow to Leon's face that knocked him to another dimension spiritually while his body fell lifelessly on the deck of the ship…

"LEON!" Eden yelled at the top of her lungs and rushed at Yuki with a vengeful look in her eyes and a dagger in her small hands.

"Your highness no!" Marcus tried to stop her but it was too late as Yuki's smirk widened even further before he sent her to the same dimension as Leon…

"You are cruel…" Yurei couldn't help but say under his breath but Yuki simply shrugged and said "What can I do? My fists believe in gender equality…"

"YOU BASTARD!" Marcus and the others sprung to their feet and rushed at Yuki despite knowing how useless their efforts were going to be, and they got a similar treatment to their leaders…

"Now then, time to set sail" Said Yuki while dusting his hands after beating the crap out of the knight pirates and Yurei couldn't help but wonder 'Why is he staring at me that way? Is he implying that this will be my fate as well if I keep annoying him? This is bad, really bad… He's becoming more and more unhinged, I need help…'

…

After that, Yuki and Yurei set sail toward water seven, it wasn't hard since Yuki acquired log poses from the revolutionaries for important islands, and Yurei would deal with the bad weather that the Grand line was famous for easily with his psychic powers, but it would still take them a few days to reach their destination.

Meanwhile, a few hours later, Leon was the first to come back to earth from his magical trip, and he stood up drowsily while still feeling his head aching from the concussion he received. But the humans in the One Piece world had unhuman regeneration so he will quickly recover... At least that's what Yuki hoped.

"We are alive?" Leon spoke with a bewildered look on his face while staring at his own two hands before he turned to Yuki who was sitting on the bow of the ship that was shaped like a shield, while Yurei stood behind him eerily with a knife in his hand and appeared to be contemplating something but kept hesitating from taking action…

'Is he trying to kill his captain?' Leon wondered, but Yurei suddenly spoke "Oy boss, you know I suck at cooking right, can't we just get something from your storage to eat?"

'Eh, it seems like I misunderstood the situation… or did I?' Leon felt conflicted when he saw the clear killing intent in Yurei's eyes but he decided to ignore the two weirdos and started observing the state of his comrades

'Everyone's alive…' Leon couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief, especially when he noticed that Eden also appeared fine and nothing happened to her, although she had a similar bruise on her cheek similar to his own…

"Nope, stop being lazy and start cooking something that can fill our stomachs, I'm sick of people thinking you're a ghost and getting creeped out by you " Was Yuki's reply to Yurei before he suddenly turned to Leon and said "Oh, you are awake…"

Leon nodded at Yuki before he started approaching him warily while Yurei started walking toward the kitchen while muttering gibberish "£££µ**$*$*$####/XX3X3333"

'Is this some kind of curse?' Wondered Leon before he ignored the creepy Yurei and asked "Why did you keep us alive?"

"Why would I kill you?" Replied Yuki with a bewildered look on his face

"Eh?" Leon was confused and so was Yuki so he end responding with a similar expression "Eh?"

After some awkward silence between the two, Leon resolved himself and asked "Aren't pirates supposed to be evil, aren't you here to plunder our ship, and sell us to slaves?"

"Plundering the ship… That's genuinely a great idea! Want to join my crew?" asked Yuki with an enthusiastic look stunning Leon who took two steps backward and thought 'I knew it, this guy is evil…'

However, Yuki suddenly shrugged and said "Regardless, I'm not interested in your lives, if you don't want to join me, you can leave to wherever you want after we reach water 7"

"Eh? Are you serious?" Leon was perplexed, he never met a pirate like this…

"Ah, I am… anyways, can you do me a favor and go keep an eye on Yurei… I'm afraid he might put something on the food to get back at me and you guys won't be able to handle it…" Spoke Yuki with a genuine smile but Leon suddenly asked solemnly.

"What do you mean by "we can't handle it?""

"Oh? You are quite slow, aren't you? I asked that lazy bastard to make enough food for when the bunch of you wake up, and he's been trying to kill me for it ever since hahahahahaha"

Leon didn't laugh at all and simply lowered his head slightly and said "Thank you" Before he turned around and started waking up his soldiers and the princess to tell them about their current situation…

…

Meanwhile, Yuki turned his attention to the sea and started thinking 'What a weird knight… Now then, who should I summon first… I guess I will have to consult with Maou-'

However, just as Yuki thought of this, a voice suddenly whispered in his head "Oy Yuki, something has come up here…"

'This is literally speaking of the devil…' Yuki felt chills when he heard Maou's voice but he still asked "What happened?"

"It's something related to that Ghoul Rize… Her Boyfriend Kaneki came begging us to help him and Emilia has already rushed out… Do you have any idea about what's happening?" Maou asked curiously, although Yuki couldn't help but narrow his eyes as he felt time going still

'This guy… Is he doubting that I know the future or something? He's clearly not giving me the full story on purpose... It seems like he didn't completely buy my lie about the prophecy back then huh?' After analyzing the situation, Yuki was about to reply but a notification suddenly appeared in front of him

[Quest: Ghoul's Conspiracy]

[Quest Description: Rize Kamishiro is an illegitimate descendant of the Washuu clan, this clan of ghouls are the main enforcers that keep other ghouls under control… And now, someone that holds a grudge against her stole her Kakuhou for a special experiment. With no one to turn to, Kaneki who was attacked beside her and was only alive thanks to her came asking for help from the only person that could save her... You]

[Quest Task: Save Rize Kamishiro from her attackers before she completely loses both her body and sanity. Time limit: 2 days]

[Quest Reward: 4 Item upgrade points]

[Quest Note: How poor is the fate of this girl, to have only you to ask for your help]

'Tsk It seems like I have a debt to repay huh?' Yuki thought coldly as he recalled how Rize helped Mashiro and the others when they were attacked by demons.

"Oy Yuki, can you hear me?" Asked Maou after noticing Yuki's silence and the latter eventually replied and said "I will be there soon, the situation might turn out to be far more complicated than we think…'

After saying this, He jumped from the bow of the ship and landed in front of the princess Eden that was talking to Leon while staring at him

"I will be leaving for a while, follow Yurei's commands during my absence"

"Where are you going?" Eden asked in surprise, but Yuki simply shrugged and said "Some place far away, I should be back in 2 days"

Then he directly disappeared causing a laugh to echo from the kitchen "HAHAHA finally, that bastard is gone, I can relax for a while…"

…

Meanwhile, back in the main world, Yuki suddenly appeared in Maou's room, and he noticed that Ashiya and Hanzo were also there, and sleeping on a sofa was none other than Kaneki…and Yuki saw that his left eye was covered…

'It seems like they transferred her Kakuhou to him huh... poor kid' Thought Yuki silently before he turned to Maou and asked "Where did Emilia go?"

"I don't know, she's searching for any traces of that woman all over Tokyo… Shizue is helping her as well" Maou spoke calmly while the other two devils remained silent and Yuki instantly knew that something was up so he asked them "Why didn't you go help them?"

At the mention of this, Ashiya coughed slightly before he said "Ahum, well, missing out on work isn't something we can easily do, plus the danger of this task and the further complications it might cause to our lives…it's a hard decision to make"

'These fuckers… Don't tell me, they are waiting here just because they want to get paid?' Yuki's face turned dark and he started eyeing them coldly before he said "Ashiya you lazy fuck, you do nothing and stay all day at home, what kind of work can't you miss?"

"AH! That's hurtful! I'm protecting the base at all times, how can you call it as doing nothing…" Replied Ashiya with a pained look that made Yuki retch in disgust before he face palmed and said

"And here I was going to invite you guys to that fun other world I'm currently conquering for free… guess I misjudged you…"

"Fun?" Hanzo's ears suddenly perked up

"Free?" Ashiya's eyes lit up slightly

"Conquer?" Maou's seriousness was turned instantly into excitement

'Easy catch' Thought Yuki with a smirk before he said "Yup, it's fine, I will go search for Rize on my own" Before he stood up, but Ashiya directly jumped at him and dragged him back down and started giving him a shoulder massage while Maou held his hands together like a goblin and said softly "Ah Yuki, we missed you, let's go save that poor girl"

'These devils never change' thought Yuki to himself before he started making a plan with them…
