Capítulo 23: Goa Kingdom
Abel entered from the gates of Goa Kingdom. He took a deep breath as he looked around curiously.
' The place where Luffy and Dragon born, Sabo and Ace being raised. System... İf you don't give me anything good I will report you to God Usopp for scaming me.'
'...'
'' Sign in''
'Congrulations host for signing in Goa Kingdom. Calculating the history and importance...Calculation completed: B grade. Armament Haki Manual awarded.'
'Oh... Good stuff! Well done system!'
'...'
'Sigh, I really need to find some people to join me. Look how pitiful I become, talking with system...'
Abel strolled around casually and a store selling newspapers took his attention. He bought one to read casually. He checked the title and realized it was World Economic News, the agency that Big New Morgans leads.
' Frauce Kingdom royalty welcomes the Celestial Dragons. Saint Rooswald and his family will spend a week there.'
'Oh... This celestial dragons are like celebrities, wherever they go it makes the news. This Frauce Kingdom... İsn't it the place I visited with Alvida's crew? So they are coming east blue...'
Abel didn't care much aside from hoping that they won't cross paths. Otherwise he might do something crazy again, risking his life. Abel took a look at other news as well.
'Captain Morgan and his son Helmoppo has been arrested for the crimes of authority abusement when their misdeeds were exposed by a marine undercover nicknamed Ghost.'
Abel was happy that the marine he threatened delivered on his promise. Otherwise he might have to go back to Gecko İslands to beat him up, wasting time.
' Will another emperor arise? Will this era be dominated by 4 emperors!? Rise of the Red Hair Pirates.'
İt was a dramatic article as expected from Big News Morgans. At first mentioning the current situation of new world which was dominated by Kaido,Whitebeard and Big Mom and then mentioning the rise of a new star and introducing the currently very famous pirate group Red Hair Pirates. Big News was implying that Red Hair Shanks will sooner or later take an emperor position, creating a new era dominated by 4 emperors. Big News was spot on since Abel knew that Shanks has become an emperor 4 years before the canon started. Right now it was 6 years before canon, so if Abel didn't mess up the storyline, Shanks would have become an emperor in 2 years securely. Right now it was rather uncertain though.
' Well, good for you best bud! I am still hanging around in east blue, scamming kids.' Abel mocked himself a bit as he threw the newspaper away to focus on his purpose here.
' Farming relationships with Luffy!'
Abel was very confident with this one. Luffy had a naturally friendly and naive personality, even though his emotional iq wasn't low, Abel was confident he could succesfully scam relationships from him as long as he didn't show any ill intent. Abel went inside an old looking bar and immediately asked the owner about the mountains around here and left short afterwards. Abel was helpless, a bandit hideout wouldn't show up in maps he needed to go around and search for it. His only clue was it was located on a mountain close to Gray Terminal.
Abel roamed the mountains for a few hours while collecting rocks and turning them into gold every 30 minutes. ' I am so young and handsome, it would be a pity if I am poor!' Thus Abel abused his ability as he turned a stone into gold every 30 minutes. As for the money Nami left with him, Abel swore that he would not waste it unless he was dying from poorness. Abel didn't think his disciple would give him any gold in the future, and thus... 'This might be the only money Nami gave away willingly in her entire life! İt is priceless.' Abel wiped his imaginary tears as he continued roaming the mountains.
Roughly 2 hours later Abel finally found Ace and Luffy who were hunting crocodiles. 'Normal kids have fun playing hide'n seek while these guys hunt crocodiles...' Abel looked at the scene speechlessly.
'' Who are you!?'' Ace realized someone was watching them and turned around immediately, in his hand was something similar to the weapon Sabo used as a child.
'Ding! Relationship formed with Ace(intermediate character). Current relationship -5(suspicious)'
'What is an intermediate character? is it something between major and minor?'Abel ignored Ace completely and turned to luffy who was looking at him curiously. Abel gave luffy a warm smile and started speaking.
'' Hello! My name is Abel. My dream is to be free and do whatever I like.'' Abel immediately talked about his dream which would interest Luffy as he introduced himself sincerely. First impressions were important. Especially when it came to a person like Luffy who acted with his emotions.
'' Hello. My name is Monkey D. Luffy! The man who will be the pirate king!'' Luffy declared immediately with a blinding smile.
'Ding! Congrulations host for forming a relationship with Luffy(main character). Current relationship +5(interested)'
'' Ah. I'm sure you can achieve it.'' Abel immediately accepted his dream casually with an easygoing smile.' You are the main character after all.'
'Ding! Relationship updated with Luffy(main character). Current relationship +10(Like).'
Luffy's smile became bigger immediately as he laughed happily.
'' Brother, I like you! Who are you by the way?'' Luffy asked with a silly smile.
'' Ah... I was just roaming east blue. I heard that my best bud Shanks likes visiting this place time to time so I came to take a look casually.'' Abel lied casually.
'' YOU KNOW SHANKS! THAT'S GREAT. I KNOW SHANKS TOO! He gave me his straw hat to return to him in the future!'' Luffy was excited immediately.
'' Ah... You know Shanks too!? What a coincidence! Then, sit! Today I will tell you about my grand adventures with my buddy Shanks!'' Abel acted surprised first and then acted like a wise elder lecturing his younglings as he started bullshiting about his adventures with Shanks.
Luffy's eyes turned bright immediately as he sat as well, listening to his every word. Meanwhile Ace's face was dark and there was a deep frown on his face. 'He is at most a few years older than us. How can he know about Shanks, let alone going on adventures with him?'
Ace didn't buy Abel's nonsense and was even more suspicious of him but when he saw Luffy's happy face his heart softened. 'Whatever, as long as he is happy. I will just beat him up if he does something suspicious.' Ace who was already 16 years old didn't have any match in Gao Kingdom. He already became the strongest existence here and was only staying here to look after his brother for a while. According to the canon he would leave in 1 year when he turned 17. Thus Ace mistakenly assumed that he could beat Abel just the same and didn't care about him as long as he didn't show any ill intent. Abel also didn't care about Ace at all. The conversation between Luffy and Abel was harmonious as Abel boasted constantly while Luffy believed it and became amazed.
'' WOW! That's awesome. Shanks and you really beat a 1000 meter sea king!?'' Luffy was amazed. He knew Shanks was strong but he didn't have any concept of top powerhouses in this world yet since he was still a child so he was amazed easily.
'' Of course! With my assistance it was a piece of cake! And then there is the time we-''
'' These are obviously lies! How can a 1000 meter sea king exist? Nonsense.'' Ace interjected annoyed by Abel's boasting.
'' Hmph! What do you know!? Did you ever left this island?'' Abel asked mockingly. Ace's face turned red immediately. Abel gave Ace a disdainful look. 'Brat, I am trying to farm relationships with the main character. Stand the f*ck aside!'
'' No, but...''
'' There are no buts! There are many things you are unaware, don't interrupt me anymore! Let me lecture you properly! Anyways after we slew that sea king we met a monster named LinLin. She is a creature that can suck the soul out of her opponents! İt is said that she even kills her own family when she gets annoyed. But of course the brave man we are, me and my best bud Shanks has gone to her hiding place and...'' Abel continued relaxedly. He was very good at spewing bullshit so he wouldn't get interrupted by Ace easily. Hours passed by as evening arrived. Abel and Luffy conversed while Ace made a snarky comment time to time interrupting Abel. Abel ignored Ace and continued speaking with Luffy. After hours of speaking Abel finally checked his notifications.
'Ding! Relationship updated with Luffy(main character). Current relationship +30(admiration).'
'Ding! Relationship updated with Ace(intermediate character). Current relationship -25(extremely annoyed)'
After Abel boasted and bullshitted for a long time he decided to conclude his speech since the evening already came.
'' Well, anyway. being a pirate is very fun actually, you get to have fun gain friends and kick ass. I'm sure you will also be a great pirate in the future just like Shanks and me as long as you pay attention to my lecture-.'' Abel concluded.
'' Cough.'' Abel heard someone cough and was very annoyed. 'Who is this shithead interrupting me.' But the voice continued before Abel could turn around.
'' You are still talking about being pirates!? And who is this guy corrupting my grandkids!'' A furious voice came behind them. Ace and Abel's face turned pale immediately as their whole body trembled.
'Ah... No,no,no! I can't be this unlucky, right...?'
'G-Gramps!'
Luffy didn't hear the voice and was oblivious as he clinged to Abel's arm.
'' Abel! Why did you stop talking about pirates!? Tell me more!'' Luffy demanded childishly. Abel tembled in terror before running away decisively. 'Ghost Steps'
'' LUFFY RUN!'' Ace also didn't hesitate and ran away after Abel before warning Luffy. Luffy was confused before his face turned pale a split second later as he jumped away and started running while screaming. His move was very wise since the spot he was a second ago was blasted away by a fist from Garp.
'' AHH! GRANDPA!''
'' STOP RUNNİNG BRATS! NO ONE CAN SAVE YOU 3 FROM MY BEATİNG TODAY!''
