Chapter 18: Strengthening the Crew 2
On the deck of Errege.
Narmi is seen sitting there with his eyes closed. Apparently, he is probing on how far his range of perception reached while waiting for Nami and Henry.
'Hmm, with my perception only, I can reach about 300 meters radius from me as the centre. With the help of Observation Haki, that range can reach for about 3km radius.'
That was the results on probing on his range of perception. ' Hmm, contending with high bounty pirates or Admiral right now was not a good of an idea, as my crew are still weak. For right now, we need to spend some times in a place to start their training to become stronger.'
After some consideration, he thought that he will ask Nami the best suitable place for training that they can use and won't take long to reach there. After all, she is a navigator. She must know something.
Narmi then woke up from his position and look into the direction of entrance of the port. He saw that Nami and Henry are coming to the ship with Henry carrying his tools for the cooking on his back while Nami carrying a handfuls of shopping bags. ' This little girl Nami ahh, really made a reckless spending.'
After they had arrived, he ordered them to started to undocking from the port and departed from the Loguetown's port. After their departure, a Marine informant can be seen reporting about his departure from the Loguetown.

Marine HQ, Fleet Admiral Sengoku Office.
Sengoku right now are on the call on Den Den Mushi, while in front of him, a broad-chested old man with a scar over his left eye were digging his nose looking unperturbed with their situations.
He is the Marine Hero, Monkey D. Garp. After receiving the report, Sengoku slammed the Den Den Mushi on the desk when he saw Garp with that nonchalant attitude of his.
"Garp! Why are you looking so nonchalant like that huh?! Did you know that a powerful rookie had appeared at East Blue?! Take this seriously Garp!"
"Sengoku, that kid is just a one of the many pirates in the sea. If everytime a powerful rookie appeared, and we flustered with their appearance, doesn't that make us Marines look weak?" Garp replied with indifference.
Sengoku sighed when he heard the logical argument of Garp, but still he can't rest his unease with Narmi was roaming the sea.
" What do you suggest me do Garp? That kid if we left him grow enough, undeniably a new emperor figure will be born. With that powerful ability that can extract devil fruit from its user, really is a dangerous situations to us Marines."
"This is my idea. Send another 2 Vice Admiral figure to the G-2 base that was under Comil's jurisdiction. This way even if that kid is strong, we can surround and cornered him with 3 of them."
Sengoku contemplated a bit on Garp's idea and made the decision to follow his idea as he believed that what Garp said is logical. He then called for his secretary into the office and ordered.
" Pass down the orders for Dalmatian and Onigumo. Said to them they need to went to G-2 bases to assist Comil in capturing Narmi Amsi."
" Roger, Fleet Admiral. I'm going to pass the orders please excuse me." " Alright. Go now"
Apparently, what Sengoku didn't know is that this order will cause an event to unfold. This event is what the world will know in the future as 'Tragedy of G-2 Base's Annihilation'.

Somewhere in East Blue.
"Captain, where are we headed?"Nami asked her captain who are doing nothing at the front of the ship.
Narmi first thought to ask her the questions but suddenly remembered a suitable place for training and replied "We will head towards the Grand Line. Can you navigate there?"
"Of course. This is Nami whom you are saying with Captain. Where do we headed at there?" Nami asked with anticipation.
"Little Garden." Narmi replied with an evil smirk in his face. Robin and Henry paled when they heard about their destination, while Nami just affirmed her captain's order energetically, oblivious to what that place is.
" Captain, why are we heading there? Aren't there many places which we can go?" Robin asked him.
"We are going to start our training there. As of now, you guys are weak. I need to train you guys so that you guys can be stronger, strong enough until no one will dare to mess with you guys. Strong enough until when you said Grand King, they will kneel before you. Don't worry, I will protect you guys there. That is my duty as a captain."
Robin and Henry look relieved with his statement. They then went on to continue onto their work. But before they went away, Narmi approached Henry and asked him a question.
" Henry, what type of devil fruit you think are strong? And if you were to be given one will you take it?"
"Hmm... According to what I heard from my father, a Logia-type Devil Fruit is the strongest. Personally, I thought so too and if I were to be given one, i will take it. Well if I were to be given one, I hope it was a fire one so that I can used it both in combat and cooking."
Hearing his answers, Narmi grinned and quickly turned his head away to avoid Henry and asked the system.
" System, what is the price of Mera Mera No Mi?" He whispered.
[ Mera Mera no Mi is a Logia-Type Devil Fruit. It was priced at 50000 points. In fact all Logia-Type is priced at 50000 points. Zoan-Type priced at 30000 points while Paramecia-Type priced at 10000 points. ]
" Can I use the reward to get Mera Mera no Mi for my crewmates?"
[ Sorry, host but the reward can only be used on host. If you want to buy for your crewmates you need to use the Shop ]
"It's okay then. For now, buy me Mera Mera no Mi and a Potion of Dispel Curse. Thank you System"
[ Mera Mera no Mi and Potion of Dispel Curse had been bought. Please take it from the Inventory ]
Narmi then turned back to Henry that had his face full of confusion when his captain went silence after he asked the question.
Narmi then handed him Mera Mera no Mi and the Potion while saying " This Devil Fruit is a Logia-Type and much coincidentally a Fire one. Eat it and then chug this potion down."
Henry's face full of joy when he heard his captain gave him a devil fruit and a fire one at. He followed what his captain said and bite the devil fruit only to feel a disgusting taste. He tried to puke it but the Devil fruit had fully absorbed into his body.
He felt the power that welled up inside his body but notice like there is a shackle that bound it. When he turned towards his captain, he saw Narmi is grinning towards him.
"You felt like there is a shackle right? That shackle is the curse of Devil Fruit. You can't swim in the sea and if you are get caught with Seastone, you are a dead meat. Now chug the potion"
Henry finally understood when his captain explained about it. Although he felt weird when his captain ask him to chug the potion, he just followed his order. Then, he felt and indescribable refreshness like how his body used to be before eating the Devil Fruit. He noticed the shackle that bound him down also gone.
"That potion can dispel the curse of Devil Fruit so don't worry. Right now you are invulnerable towards the weakness of Devil Fruit."
Henry is not an idiot, oblivious to the world. He knows that the potion that he just chugged down is a rare potion that the world try to find, or maybe create to cover the Devil Fruit's weakness. If this was know, they will become a target of the pirates and Marines.
But, Narmi just gave him one just like that. Not only he gave a devil fruit but he gave the potion also. This shows to how Narmi trust him really much. He vowed in his heart to follow Narmi even until the last of his life. He bowed gratefully to Narmi.
Narmi just grinned seeing his actions and dismissed him so that he can went back to his work. Robin who watched this from the side, float a knowing gentle smile towards him.
Narmi, the one who received the smile, again had his heart charmed with her smiles and quickly went away to his room to avoid from Robin to notice his face blushing in embarassment.
For now, destination set for Little Garden. Onwards, Errege.
