AN:- THIS CHAPTER IS MY FAVORITE SINCE IT INTRODUCES SOMETHING THAT THE FANFIC IS BASED ON, LEADING UP TO THIS POINT. DO REMEMBER TO GO TO MY YOUTUBE AND SUBSCRIBE TO IT, SINCE IT WILL HELP ME. ANYWAYS, HOPE YOU GUYS LIKE CHAPTER 37.
[PREVIOUSLY ON GAMER PIECE]
"Hahaha!!! Oh MY GOD!! YOUR VOICE WENT HIGH AND WEIRD" Nami starts crackling like crazy- Did she just-
"Uh-uhm, you guys do know I am here right?" I blink, recognising the voice as Aisa. Oh, she was awake. Well, it doesn't really matter.
"LUFFY, RAI, LOOK AT THAT!!" Merry's spirit pops up, pointing towards a Frog doing a crawl stroke in the water. Me and Luffy come to the deck and look on, noticing the frog.
"Wowwwww!!!" Luffy's eyes turn into stars, before he points towards the Frog, ordering us. "FOLLOW!!!" like Luffy and Merry have the brain cell, Merry immediately turns and follows the Swimming Frog. The frog is a giant frog named Yokozuna which has yellow-brown skin and black hair worn in a chonmage. He has numerous scars on his belly, sharp, jagged teeth and is seemingly a facultative biped, used mostly for his sumo stance.
I remember the frog being a friend to Franky and Iceberg, so that means we are reaching Water 7. my eye catches the lighthouse, where the frog stands near it, holding its hand out and readying itself.
"what is it-"
*CHOO-CHO0*
A Train, the Puffing Tom, goes past the ship, hitting the frog. Luffy extends his arms immediately, grabbing onto the Flying Frog and yanking it towards us-
"LUFFY-" Merry screams, knowing that the ship cannot handle having a giant frog like that slamming into it. I jump up, using my new strength to kick the giant frog to the water as Luffy removes his hand from the Frog. Both me and him look at the sinking frog, not sure what to do.
"uh, excuse me!" I called out to the train station, expecting three people to be inside the Station. Merry, who still is in Her Spirit form and Luffy turn to look at the station, also expecting people to come. After a few seconds, three people- well, two people and a rabbit come out of the station to meet with us.
a little girl named Chimney, with green hair in braided pigtails that stands upward, and are puffy at the end, along with sandals and a short white shirt over a striped dress, of orange and red stripes. Her dress is yellow and green.
"Oh, Pirates Ey?" An old woman named Kokoro speaks up, drinking beer with her bottle which she has in her hand. She is perpetually smiling regardless of her actual emotions. Her overweight body shape, along with her strange smile, makes her look like a frog. She resembles more of a dugong in terms of appearance and shape due to her obese physique.
"Yeah, Hello there. we want to cr-" before I could speak, Luffy spoke up.
"Hey Old Women, Do you know a way to get to Enies Lobby?" I turned to him, a little annoyed. This is not something that we should ask about,but it doesn't really matter, as Kokoro is somewhat of an ally to us.
"Oh, Yeah. you guys could go to Enies Lobby by using the Puffing Tom, though Only Official Personnel are allowed to use that." She stops for a second before gulping down some more beer. I noticed a little ribbit standing next to Chimney, with long ears and a cotton-tail. He is mostly light blue with a cream-colored face and front and he constantly has a wide grin on his
face.
The little rabbit's name is Gonbe.
"Oh, I see. By the way, when is Aqua Laguna gonna hit?" Since if i get to know that, i would be able to deduce the timeline we are currently in. Kokoro looks in the waters, before looking back at me and answering.
"it is going to hit today during the night. Can you young fellows give me and my grand- daughter a lift to the Island?" She points towards the Island we are going to, and Luffy nods,
accepting it.
"Yokozuna, you coming?" She screams up, and the next second, the giant Frog, Yokozuna Pops up and lands on the Train station. It looks at luffy before-
"Ribbit-Ribbit!" I blink, not understanding what the hell the frog said, but It seems Luffy
did.
"Oh, I am sorry. you were going to crash into the train-thingy that-" he scratches his hair sheepishly, in an apologetic tone. The Rabbit continues talking.
"Rib-Rib-Rib Bt" Luffy makes an "oh" expression, understanding something. man, Understanding Animals due to Having "Voice of all things" is kinda cool.
"I'm Sorry for disturbing your Training." He nods in respect, apologizing once again. The Rabbit nods, accepting the apology and then nodding to Kokoro, accepting her invitation. "Okay, let's go!" Merry speaks up, showing herself. She has become a lot more confident as days go by, since she can speak to all of the strawhats. The frog, the rabbit, Chimney and Kokoro all show surprise as the ship starts moving, especially Kokoro since she has only heard about this From Tom.
"is that-"
"Yeah, our Ship is a Klabautermann." I have a grin on my face, while Kokoro nods in acknowledgement, knowing that a ship could only form a spirit if it is loved unconditionally. though, she looks around, and notices just how unstable the ship is becoming.
"Are you both the only members of this ship?" Chimney, ever the curious one, asks us bluntly. Luffy turns to her, his expression showing confidence.
"They have been captured and are going to Impel down, so we need to catch a train from the island to go to some other island which is connected to that Impel down to save them." Chimney's and Kokoro's eyes widened in shock, they did NOT expect this.
"You guys are going to Impel down?" Chimney's eyes start sparkling, excited to hear how we are going to do that. She is crazy in the head, which is backed up by what she does in canon, but who am I to tell that about someone?
I am literally planning a prison break.
"Yeah, me and Rai are going to save all our friends." Luffy shows a confident grin towards Chimney, making her excited along with her pet Rabbit. Though, Kokoro looks a little
concerned.
"You guys are going to have a Prison Break with this ship?" She looks around, but Merry pops up next to her, angrily pointing her finger towards the old woman.
"Hey, you talking about me?" Merry tries to intimidate the grown ass women, but it backfires
as Kokoro blanky stares at Merry, gulping her beer.
"Yes." Merry's shoulders go down, dejected at the opinion that she cannot take us for the
Prison Break. I decided to step up, trying to elevate her mood.
"Well, we are thinking of upgrading her, you personally know a Shipwright that could
remodel Merry into the best ship?" Merry grins, excited remembering that she is going to be
upgraded to become a much better ship for her friends.
"Hmm, yeah. I know one, the other might NOT do it, so I will personally ask Iceberg about
you guys since You guys are bringing me back to the island." Luffy turns around, asking who
Iceberg is.
After Kokoro tells him who Iceberg is, Luffy becomes Excited, wanting to Invite Iceberg to become the Shipwright of the crew. While that is going on, I think about how to get Adam wood. First, I need to make a deal with Franky, before Throwing Luffy at him.
Luffy will drag his ass into the crew, and if he still gets kidnapped like in canon, me and Luffy could save him, getting a favour-
"WOAHHHH!!" Both Merry and Luffy scream in excitement, looking at the island we have reached. Even my eyes widen, a grin across my face.
Water 7 is beautiful, not the most beautiful since Sky Island exists, but Beautiful enough. The
large waterfall in the highest point in the island, with many houses and canals connected with it, gives the Island a much more beautiful touch.
"Welcome to Water 7!" Chimney excitedly introduces the island to us, while Kokoro points towards a Canal leading to Dock 1, telling us that it is where Iceberg would be. Merry turns on
her own, going inside the canal and-
"YEAHHHH!!" Merry, Luffy and even Chimney throw their hands high in the air as Water drags them upwards, similar to Reverse Mountain but with less intensity. As we reach the Dock, we notice People moving about, but not in a calm way.
"Did you hear that-"
"Who could have-" "Could it be The Franky Fam-"
"No, even they have been kil-"
Commotion is going on, and something tells me that something is wrong around here. I tell Merry to stop, and then ask the locals what is going on. They look at me, before explaining in
worry.
"Iceberg has been killed, assassinated." My eyes widen, before my brain calms down. Killed? How? Wasn't there only supposed to be-
"What happened?" Kokoro asks in worry, and the pedestrian explains what had happened. Somehow, Iceberg was killed by a bullet wound to the chest, with no idea on who the killer
was.
"We should go to-"
"Franky!" I exclaim after realising something. I jump down, Luffy coming along with me while Grabbing Kokoro, chimney and The rabbit before jumping after me.
I land on the ground, touching Merry and putting her in my Inventory before dashing with my full speed towards the shore. Luffy doesn't question, running behind me while still holding onto the three. Kokoro wants to ask what is happening, but the speed with which Luffy is going is making her stomach churn.
I pull out the Map we got From Kokoro, something she gives to every person that comes to Water 7. I try to locate the place where Franky's house should be, but there isn't any indication of it in that. If I had it in my Own Map, I could have-
'oh yeah, I could do that.' I grab onto the Map, deciding to Use my New skill. After activating
it, my Mana comes out, surrounding The Map like a Bubble before Compressing into my
palm, as-
THE TARGET HAS BEEN DEVOURED-
THE DEVOURED TARGET IS INTERACTING WITH THE SYSTEM-
ERROR!!n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
ERROR!!
MAP IS UPDATING-
MAP HAS BEEN UPDATED
I Jump towards the Roof of a house near me, before launching myself in the air with the
highest jump, before Kicking the air, using Geppo while opening My Map, locating the House.
I know Luffy is right behind me as I hear Chimney screaming, so I speed up to reach our destination. I notice the Frog jumping at Buildings, keeping up with us. In a minute, we reach
our destination.
We all see a destroyed Building, with Bodies Riddled around. Some giant humans, to Normal
humans, We even see two girls wearing bikinis. All on the ground-
Dead.
"These are Franky's Fam-" Kokoro cannot believe what is even happening right now, but it
seems my guess is true.
Without Robin in Water 7, CP9 doesn't have to Delay OR frame The killing Of Iceberg. Franky
is kidnapped due to him having the Blueprint of Pluton, something he wouldn't give up.
"Oi Old aunty, we need The Rocketman. Get that ready, Luffy, keep them company. I will make
sure if Iceberg is really killed." If Iceberg is killed, then who will help upgrade Merry? We need Both the disciples of Tom to help upgrade Merry.
"Wh-what? What is happening? How do you know about the Rocketman? How-" damnit women, you really think this is the right time to ask these questions? -
"I am an information trader, CP9 killed Iceberg and kidnapped Franky since Franky has the
blueprints of Pluton. They are going to Enies Lobby, and we Need the RocketMan to chase
after them. Now, please get it ready." I jump up in the air, not in the mood to explain more than needed.
My entire plan was ruined. I didn't expect that they would assassinate Iceberg before Aqua
Laguna. The plan was for me to exchange the Gold we had, stop Iceberg from Getting Killed by
making Luffy fight all of the CP9, while I go to Franky and bring him to steal all the Adam wood he bought in canon by using my Timeless Dungeon-
But I completely forgot about CP9 delaying Their mission due to wanting to get a hold of Robin. Since they don't need to do that, they don't need to delay the mission. Now, I need to make sure Iceberg is still Alive, if he isn't, then....
I reached Dock 1, the Galley-La Company headquarters. I hold my hand in front of my face,
and like my Favourite Character, Ichigo Kurosaki, I Swiped downwards, a Mask forming on my face while I had in my inventory. On the way, I use Mana Rope to grab onto a Mask I found
on
the streets below, since I don't want my face plastered all across the island for attempting to kidnap the dead body of Iceberg.
I use Observation Haki, feeling 10+ presences inside the building. But I don't know which one
is the Iceberg, so I just disappear, going into my Dungeon and bursting into The Building, Arriving at the place where people seem to have been the most.
I come out of my dungeon, noticing that I have arrived in some kind of bedroom. I notice a
body lying on the bed, and decide to grab onto it-
"WHO ARE YOU-" A Blond haired Person with goggles on the top of the head, and with a cigar in his mouth. His denim jacket has a flame detail, many of his cigars strapped to it-
I disappear with the body, making Paulie shocked, and angry. He orders the Galle-la Members
to find the person whom he presumes as the Assonation.
I am still in the Room, but in a different dimension. I look at the body that I disappeared with,
noticing a tall middle aged man with Blue hair and similarly colored lips. This is Iceberg. I grab onto his wrist, trying to feel the pulse-
....the iceberg is dead. I look at the wound that was inflicted on him, and easily notice Shigan
being used to puncture his heart. Meaning, someone from CP9, either Lucci or Kaku, killed
him.
I scratch my head, not liking what I am about to do. But, i NEED his skill in building a Ship,
so-
"I am sorry." I put my hand in his Chest, before activating the skill that I used before. My Mana comes out of my body, surrounding the dead body of Iceberg like a Bubble before Compressing and going back into My palm-
THE TARGET HAS BEEN DEVOURED
SKILLS DETECTED, ABSORBING AND ADDING TO THE GAMER'S SKILLS.
STATS HAVE BEEN BROKEN AND ABSORBED BY THE GAMER. +1 STR, +2 VIT, +1 DEX, +10 INT,
+12 WIS
THE SKILL HAS DETECTED MEMORIES, WOULD THE USER LIKE YO ABSORB THE MEMORY? I refuse, not wanting to absorb and see the last Moments of Iceberg. I jump out of the window, using Geppo to fly a little far before coming out of the Dungeon before Tracing Luffy
with the Party Window.
"Oiiii-" Chimney waves at me on the ground, pointing towards the city's garbage dump. I
land near him, and she walks ahead inside it, where she shows me the thing we are going to
travel with-
Rocketman.
"Yo Rai, this thing is awesome!!" Luffy moves around the containers, popping his head out
and greetings me. Kokoro comes out of the engine Room, noticing me and walking towards
me.
"Is he?" She asks a simple question, but I can feel her emotions behind it. I will never tell her that I devoured Iceberg, someone she considers like her son, but-
"He.. is dead. Killed by CP9, who are in Enies Lobby, they even sent an extractor to take care of the body, but I took care of him. Iceberg's body is in a safe place." Without wincing or feeling remorse, I tell a small lie. But, it's not like anyone can fact check it as I already threw away the mask when coming to this place.
She nods, wiping her tears before looking back at me and asking me something else. "Will you guys...save Franky?" She tries to make a request, but Luffy speaks up, coming out of
the train.
"Sure!" Luffy nods confidently, making Kokoro breathe a sigh of relief. A small rumble is
heard, as Yokozuna comes to the place from the direction that I and Chimney come from. He looks resolute, and Kokoro nods at him.
"I will bring you guys there, though Rocketman needs some fixing-"
"I'll do it!" I go inside the Train, before transporting it and myself into my Timeless Dungeon, where I start to fix it. Thanks to the skills I got from Iceberg. It takes me an hour to
fix the Rocketman enough for it to run properly, so I come out of the Dungeon with it and come out, giving a thumbs up to Kokoro.
She looks Confused, but then shrugs, before turning to Chimney and her pet while Yokozuna
jumps to the cargo, sitting on it as it is coming with us. Kokoro tells them to leave, since from now on, it is a difficult journey.
Kokoro goes inside the engine room, while I look at Chimney, pointing my thumb towards the Train Chambers, telling her to keep quiet for a couple of minutes. She grins happily before going inside, along with Her pet and Luffy. I turn to Yokozuna, telling it to watchout for the
kids, while the Frog nods resolutely.
"Both of you grab on tightly, the Ride is going to be Rough!" I hear her voice, so I climb onto
the top of the top of the engine, using Mana to stick onto the Train like I am using Chakra
control, while Grabbing onto the Steam Releaser.
Kokoro releases the whistle, before starting the engine and making the Rocketman gear up.
The train moves, before picking speed almost immediately and rushing towards the exit
where-
"WOOOO HOOOO!!" Luffy, who somehow climbed to where I am, starts waving his hands out in joy as we free fall to the ocean below. We crash land on it, and that is when I Suck the entire
train along with its inhabitants into my Timeless Dungeons, letting us ride and waste time in
it.
We don't have time to waste in the real world, and traveling to Enies Lobby would be wasting time. Nobody notices anything, so I leave Luffy on top of the Train while climbing down and going inside the chambers.
"Grandma Kokoro, how long would it take for us to reach Enies Lobby?" I ask her, trying to calculate the exact time I need to bring all of us out of the dungeon so we could crash land on Enies Lobby. She counts with her fingers, before Showing 5 at me. "It will take 3 hours, faster than Puffing Tom would take for us to reach there. Though, We
might have to look for the Aqua Laguna, but we should miss it as we departed much earlier than the waters were supposed to be dangerous." I nod, deciding to keep a timer for 3 hours,
counting backwards from 10,800 seconds- Why the hell am I even doing that? I literally have a phone that I don't even use. I take out my
phone, opening my Timer app and setting the timer for 3 hours.
I look at my phone, something I haven't seen for the entire time I have been in this world. I
really hope that I could use it, as I could refresh my memory about the story of this world,
since it is coming to bite my ass.
I tried to create an Internet so I could use My phone, but it is absolutely useless. I don't even know where to start, Internet coding, radio frequencies, and so much more. It took Humanity 1000+ years to even discover the Internet, and I am trying to make it advanced enough to
connect with my phone.
Damnit, it is hard-
.....wait a second. Should I devour it? I can devour a map, and from what the skill description
said, I can Devour 'ANYTHING'. should I? I could use it when I make the internet, especially
with Vegapunk's help. I try to think about this but-
....fuck it, we ballin. The phone has been absolutely useless, so there is no point for it to be
preserved anymore. It could at least be used to get some kind of skill. With my mind made, i manipulate my Mana to surround it like a Bubble and-
"Gluttonous Break."
My mobile Phone gets compressed and then gets absorbed into my body-
GLUTTONOUS BREAK - ACTIVE - LVMAX

THE SYSTEM IS UPDATING TO INTEGRATING WITH THE TARGET'S SKILL
I Blink, not at all expecting this. Just what is happening- SYSTEM UPDATED! THE SYSTEM HAS GAINED NEW FEATURES.
ONE OF THE SYSTEM FEATURES IS THE ABILITY TO LIVE-STREAM-
my brain calms down from the shock I just endured. What the fuck?- Live-Streaming?
THE END
AN:- WELL, FROM THIS POINT ON, THIS ARE ABOUT TO GET ABSOLUTELY WILD IN THIS STORY.
