Chapter 26: Ch 26 : Sichibukai
I am a Rich Second Generation in One Piece Ch 26
The next day, Seth woke up, but Robin had already left the room.
Last night they had spent the night together. After Seth said those words to Robin, Robin broke into tears. All these years, she had never been so warm, and it had made her intoxicated.
Looking at the side, Seth could still see the trace of Robin's warmness here, and a smile rose on his face.
[ DING!!! Robin's impression of you had increased a lot. Counterattack points +800.]
' Right.. it is not a dream…'
For some reason, every time Seth thought about Robin's beautiful face, a smile couldn't help but appear in his eyes.
But today, the problem seemed to come and approach Seth.
Not long after he woke up, the door to his room was opened, and Tashigi appeared while looking hurried.
" Seth, it is an emergency! Vice-Admiral Tsuru come and demanded to see you!"
" ???? "
. . . . . . .
In the Holzberg family residence, the Mama and Papa Holzberg were currently chatting with Tsuru.
But the two knew it was only the calm before the storm.
The moment Seth stepped his feet into this room, the real talk would happen.
And right, after Seth appeared alongside Tashigi and Isuka, the atmosphere turned a bit solemn.
" Good day, Vice Admiral Tsuru. May I know what brought you here to our humble residence?"
Seth greeted Tsuru politely before he went to take a seat.
Here, everyone could read the atmosphere as they immediately left the room, leaving only Seth and Vice Admiral Tsuru alone.
At first, Seth's parents felt a bit reluctant. Even though Tsuru was a family friend, today she was here for business, and they were afraid that Seth was not ready. However, after Seth gave the nod, they reluctantly left the room.
Seth surveyed the surrounding with observation haki for a bit, and after making sure that no one was eavesdropping, he turned toward Tsuru.
" Vice-Admiral Tsuru, can we get to the main topic now?"
" Hehe.. no need to be in a hurry, but to be able to master observation haki at such a young age. You really have exceeded my expectation, Seth."
Seth was not surprised. From the beginning, he has no intention of hiding this fact from Tsuru. After all, he didn't believe that with his current capability, he would be able to deceive her.
Tsuru saw Seth was able to keep her calm, and a smile rose on her face.
" Good, to think you have such a composure. I'm sure your parents would be proud of you. But let's get to the main topic. Seth, I am here because I want to offer a deal for you!"
" ??? "
" No need to be confused. Do you think we marine would catch you because you deal with Crocodile? We are not that petty Seth. Rather, we are thankful that you have taken care of that bastard. He used our name and our authority to make the civilians suffer, for that we must offer our gratitude to you!"
Tsuru bowed to Seth. However, this was only the introduction. The real bomb has not been dropped yet, and Seth also knows this. Definitely, Tsuru wouldn't come this far just to thank him.
" But… this also gives us some problem."
Here it is. Seth got a bit tenser.
Last night, he had discussed with Robin what kind of possibilities the Marine would take, and Seth hoped it would be one of the better ones.
Tsuru saw Seth getting tense, and a smile rose on her face.
" Don't worry. We are not going to do anything bad to you. Rather, we will ask you to fill Crocodile's previous role and act as Sichibukai!"
[ DING!!! Vice-Admiral Crane has asked you to fill the role of the Sichibukai for the World Government. Please Make a Choice!]
[ Choice 1: Agree to her proposal, he the dog of the World Government. Reward: Random Devil Fruit.]
[ Choice 2: Reject her proposal politely. Reward: One of the 21 great swords.]
[ Choice 3: Reject her proposal, spit at her face and declare war against the World Government. Reward: Boa Hancock Impression + 50.]
" Sichibukai!??"
Seth was shocked. He had expected this before, but hearing it directly from Tsuru was still shocking. Furthermore, what's with the choice this time. To be honest, except for the third choice, the first and second one seemed to be very good for Seth.
" Yes, Sichibukai. No need to hide it Seth; we all know that you have a pretty strong Devil Fruit, and also the observation Haki. So rather than trying to give you any punishment, wouldn't it be better if you work for us as a Sichibukai? Anyway, I would rather trust you than those pirates."
Tsuru's words were correct. In fact, it was also what Seth and Robin discussed last night. The defeat of Crocodile had emptied a space in the Sichibukai, so rather than trying to recruit a pirate, it would be a lot more reasonable to recruit Seth as a Sichibukai. But the problem was…
" Is it about Firefist Ace? Don't worry. There wouldn't be any problem. Let's not ask how, but we have controlled the world newspaper, and we are able to change the news to our benefit. If you agree to this offer, three days later we will announce in the world newspaper that you, Seth alone had defeated Crocodile and would take his position."
Indeed, Seth had felt there was something wrong these past days. There was no way Morgan would miss such a piece of big news. But now, he somehow was able to guess what was happening.
Tsuru, this cunning old fox had bribed Morgan. She must have told Morgan that if he was able to postpone the news for a bit, she would bring even bigger news to Morgan.
Seth pondered for a while, and after thinking that there should be no disadvantage for him, a smile eventually rose in his face. Anyway, being a Sichibukai didn't mean that he would be the World Government's dog forever, and he could just exit the Sichibukai after he felt he was strong enough.
All the other transmigrators might directly oppose the World Government from the get-go, but Seth was different. He would take things slowly, and after he ensured that his plan was foolproof, would only he make a move.
Just let the system say what it wants. After all, Seth believed that his and his family's safety was more important.
[Ding! The selection is complete! Receive the reward Random Devil Fruit! ]
He smiled at Tsuru and offered a handshake.
" Then, we will be together from now on. Please take care of me!"
" The same goes for you, Seth. Please take care of us!"
