Chapter 21: [21]Summon Spirit Of The Underworld!
"Look at this Ren, this is our Jolly roger from now!" Nojiko, who returned home, approached Ren and gave him a black cloth with Jolly Roger painted on it, which consisted of a skull and two Kalashnikovs crossed with it.
[Ding! Congratulations host, for finishing the main mission:"Create a Pirate Crew" and obtaining "Primary Armament Haki cake."]
"Un, well done, Nojiko. I didn't know you were so good at sewing." Ren gently patted her head and played with her blue hair.
He finished this mission right after Nojiko sewed the pirate flag. He was naturally happy because his power would go to another level. After he obtained Armament Haki, he would be able to fight Logia users.
"Hehehe~well, I always needed to sew Nami's clothes in the past when she came home...you know..." she smiled and she was happy for his compliment.
"Don't worry Nojiko, from today onwards I will protect you and Nami."
Ren looked at her seriously and said, Nojiko was naturally happy, she felt safe when she was with him.
The next moment, she stood in front of him and brought her face closer to him, Ren did the
same.
*Tcho~!*
After a short kiss, their lips parted, then Ren took out something from the Infinity Space and handed it to Nojiko who was still touching her lips with her hand.
"What is this, Ren?" She wondered and then looked at the scroll that Ren had given her, there was the word "Sniping" written on it in clear handwriting.
"This is something that will make you stronger, Nojiko." Ren told her how to consume the scroll and then she applied what Ren told her.
The next moment a message appeared on the system interface.
-[Crewmember Nojiko would like to use the "Sniper Talent" scroll, does the host agree to this?]
-[Yes/No.]
Ren was a little surprised by this sudden notification, he thought that the system items could be consumed directly but it seemed like they needed his approval first?
"That's good, at least I won't be afraid of my enemy using it, assuming I will be robbed in the future."
He mentally chose 'yes' and then in the next moment the scroll that was in Nojiko's hand magically disappeared and much information started entering her mind.
After a while of being stunned and adjusting to the new knowledge, Nojiko smiled excitedly and looked at Ren and said, "Ne-Ren, I want a nice gun like the one you have. I feel like I can use weapons easily now!"
"Well, this is because of the scroll I gave you. It's called the 'Sniper Talent' scroll, and immediately after consuming it, you will have knowledge of many weapons and how to use them, reload them, etc... Of course, training is still important."Nôv(el)B\\jnn
Time passed while Ren and Nojiko were talking about different weapons and how to use them. Nami arrived home as well. She was visiting Bell-mere's grave and her eyes looked red from crying.
"Welcome home, Nami."
"Hey Nami."
They welcomed her, knowing that she was probably crying outside in front of Bell-mere's grave.
But unfortunately, Ren couldn't do anything for Nami and Nojiko in this case.
After all, he doesn't have any skill to revive the dead or anything like that currently, maybe in the future the system might give it to him, but now? Forget it.
[Ding! Congratulations host, for completing the hidden mission: "have your First Bounty" and obtaining the skill "Summon Underworld Spirit"!]
Ren: "..."
Let's go back in time, exactly an hour ago.
In a place far from East blue, specifically on the Grand Line.
The Grand Line is divided into two parts, "Paradise" and "New World," and when pirates try to enter the New World, They only take the route to Fish-Men Island, which is located 10,000 meter below sea's surface.
Why?
This is because of Marineford.
The Marineford was the Marine headquarters, this is the place of the strongest Marines and the most powerful elites of the marines in the world.
This place, which is constantly protected by the three admirals and the fleet admiral, is an impenetrable fortress that no pirate can penetrate.
This is what it looks like but....it has been destroyed partially several times.
But this doesn't diminish the power of the marineford, this name still terrifies pirates wherever they are!
And now inside the Marineford, especially in the Fleet Admiral's office.
A tall, fair-skinned, and muscular man with a long, braided goatee and a mustache sat. He wears black-rimmed glasses and a white and gold full Marine admiral uniform that is adorned with medals. The most distinctive features of this uniform are a life-size seagull on top of his cap, and his oversized Marine coat which he wears like a cape. His coat has the' kanji' for justice in blue emblazoned on the back, and has unique colored cuffs, with his being white.
This was the fleet Admiral of marines, and the most influential person in the marie, Sengoku.
He wasn't alone in his office. There was an old woman with white hair and wrinkled skin sitting on the office sofa with a thoughtful look on her face. This was the Great Staff Officer,
Tsuru.
"Fuck!"
Sengoku shouted angrily, he was currently in a really bad mood after he obtained dangerous information from one of the branches of the East Blue marines.
He has been informed that the captain of the 16th Branch in the East Blue Captain Nezumi has been captured by a pirate.
Although such things didn't always happen, they did happen from time to time when the leader of a marine branch was killed or captured.
Sengoku was surprised why this matter was reported directly to him and not dealt with by his
subordinates?
But as the Den Den Mushi continued to speak, his facial expressions became uglier.
"Remnants of the Sun Pirates? Arlong Pirates?
Nezumi was covering up for Arlong? Damn it!"
"Calm, Sengoku, we must handle this matter carefully." Tsuru looked at him and tried to ease
his angry mood.
"You're right..." Sengoku returned to his seat and sat down, then sighed and finally said to Tsuru next to him: "We must definitely cover up this news in order to preserve the Marine
face!"
Sengoku had to make sure that this matter wouldn't spread to East Blue or worse become known around the world, dealing a blow to the Marines' reputation as "soldiers of justice."
If citizens knew that an island had been controlled by pirates for many years, all thanks to the corruption of the Marines, wouldn't they lose confidence in the Marines?
That's why Sengoku made the East Blue issue a priority and followed all developments.
"Yes indeed, the impact of the spread of such news will be terrifying, especially since we are at a crucial stage in our plans to defeat the Whitebeard Pirates. We cannot allow any variable to affect us, or our efforts over the past years will be in vain."
Unlike the angry Sengoku, Tsuru was analyzing the case and looking at the "big pic". Some might say this is an exaggeration, but only she and Sengoku knew that people's trust in the Marines was too important.
While the two were still discussing how to handle the case, the Den Den Mushi suddenly rang
at the desk.
Sengoku quickly pointed out the line and picked up the line: "What's wrong? I'm in an
important meeting now-"
"Mr. Fleet Admiral! This is related to the incident in East Blue."
After Sengoku heard this, he hurriedly answered the marine:
"Speak up, are there any new developments?" Sengoku asked quickly.
Tsuru was also listening carefully.
"Sir...Actually, the matter is..." The marine started talking about the execution of Nezumi and the rest of Arlong Pirates, and how Ren did it. All this information was obtained by spies from other villages who heard about the huge celebration. Which is being held on the conomi Islands, and they obtained the corresponding information verbally from other people who were present at the time, and thus this news reached the people in the marine branch, and the Marineford was informed as quickly as possible.
The Marines in the Marine Branch were cooperating with sengoku and the headquarter, the blame Nezumi that he was the cause of the corruption and that they were forced to follow his orders or something like that.
Of course, all of these were just lies to save their lives, and they didn't know that their fate had already been decided by Sengoku, who would later execute them all.
Putting that aside, Sengoku and Tsuru who were listening to the Marine through the Den Den
Mushi had serious expressions.
They knew that most pirates were cruel people and cold-blooded killers, but these strange and cruel execution methods had never been heard of before!
After the marine finished the report and hung up, Sengoku quickly spoke to Tsuru next to him and said in a serious tone: "This pirate, Ren...he is dangerous."
"Indeed, even though his strength is not something special in the Grand Line,especially in
the New World, when he managed to defeat the Arlong Pirates who are the remnants of the Sun Pirates alone, he must be very strong for the marines of the East Blue, there is only one person can stop it ther, it's Smoker.."
Tsuru shared her thoughts with Sengoku, but this time she was wrong. Ren was already too
strong to worry about chasing Smoker after he obtained the Armament Haki Scroll that he had
not yet used.
"If based on his strength and the brutal methods he used on Nezumi, even executing him publicly to give us a slap in the face...this will be his Bounty!"
Sengoku wrote some information about Ren in his notebook and contacted the 16th marine Branch in East Blue to ask them for a pic of Ren, which was quickly sent via fax. "That's a fair enough reward for this person now." Tsuru looked at the number Sengoku
wrote and said.
"Tomorrow a section of the newspaper will be dedicated to Ren. We have to mention
everything he did but avoid talking about the corruption of the Marines. All we have to do is
say that he captured Marine Branch Captain Nezumi for no reason and brutally executed him!" Sengoku said in a serious tone.
"I understand." Tsuru replied and left the Fleet Admiral's office. Sengoku remained alone in his office. Then he took the Den Den Mushi again and entered a
number. The line quickly connected.
"Smoker, I have a mission for you."
Back to the present time.
At the sisters' house, Ren stood there in amazement staring at the letter he had just received.
-[Summoning Spirit of the Underworld: A skill that enables the user to summon the dead by storing the soul of the dead person in inanimate matter (rings, necklaces...). This skill transfers the soul from the Underworld to the real world, but the transferred soul cannot remain in the world only for 5 minutes and must be stored in inanimate matter until a way is found to fully revive the soul. The stored soul is still able to speak while inside the inanimate
matter naturally.]
"This...this is amazing!" In contrast to his usually calm mood, this time Ren shouted
excitedly, after all he could summon the spirit of a dead person from the underworld or
something like that so as to get a reward from the system for fully reviving the person, doesn't that mean Bell-mere can be revived?
"Ren? What happened?" Nojiko asked curiously when she saw Ren looking unusually excited.
She had only seen her boyfriend like this when they were doing "sport", so she was naturally
curious.
Nami also looked at Ren with warmth and love, her eyes tired from crying, waiting for him to
speak.
"Nami, Nojiko, you may not believe what I'm saying but I have a way to revive Bell-mere!"
Nami: "..." Nojiko: "..."
