Chapitre 7: Chapter 7
—Third Person—
–Year 1522: February 28–
–Grand line : Kyuka island–
Sidestepping another volley of bullets, boogers, and even spits from the bomb human Gem, currently known as Mr. 5, Alvida slowly walked up to him.
She smirked as he tried punching her. As always, the attack just slipped past her body. Seeing his shocked face, she decided to divulge some information to him.
"No attacks will work on me; they just slip past my body. I ate the Sube Sube no Mi, you see." she said, punching him in the stomach, folding him in half as he was sent flying before he could react.
Waiting for him to wake up, she sighed and glanced at the mini Den Den Mushi as it rang.
"Puru puru puru..."
Taking the call, she was about to speak, but before she could say anything, the mini Den Den Mushi erupted in frantic shouting, "Marines!" "Vice admiral!"
"What!" A shocked expression crossed her face as the Den Den Mushi went offline. It was Knox and Rambo who had called her.
'A Vice Admiral? Would they even leave the ship alone if they saw it? What am I even thinking? Of course, they would sink it,' she thought as she looked at the downed Mr. 5.
"Shit." Running up to him and grabbing him by the collar, she sensed Kuro returning with an unconscious Miss Valentine's Day.
Seeing the captain's panicked face, he looked at her questioningly as she quickly explained the situation.
The two of them ran off with the Baroque Works agents in their hands.
'What shitty timing for the navy to appear. Wait a minute! These guys must have a Log Pose to Alabasta. Yes! We could use that,' she thought as she looked at Mr. 5 and shook him awake.
"Huh?" Seeing the confused expression on the now awake man, she glared at him.
"Point us towards your ship and get us off this island immediately," she demanded, placing him on the ground. He shook under her gaze, nodding before he began to run.
Following Mr. 5, they reached a shore which was empty except for a small ship. Climbing aboard, they quickly set sail, leaving the island behind them.
Halfway across the island...
"Speak, Tsuru. I want to hear that you have her in seastone cuffs by now."
The voice was that of Fleet Admiral Sengoku. The old woman holding the Den Den Mushi sighed.
"She left before I could make contact with her. Also, she has some loyal crewmates," she informed Sengoku, her eyes on the sinking ship a distance away from the island.
"Sengoku, I advise you to just destroy her before she becomes a bigger problem," Tsuru said seriously, her gaze following the direction where she sensed the small ship leaving.
"Her presence, it's truly one of a kind." Her words left Sengoku uncomfortable as he sighed.
"Leave the island and come back, Vice Admiral Tsuru." With that final piece, the Den Den Mushi disconnected.
'What is with that monstrous presence of hers,' Tsuru thought with a grim look on her face. 'It was as if it was warning me, as if I would die if I even thought about harming her.'
'I just hope Sengoku deals with this girl before she grows any stronger,' she thought before walking toward her warship.
–Alvida POV–
Why is a Vice Admiral after me? What the hell did I even do to warrant such high-ranking authority figures taking action against me?
I thought as we sailed to Alabasta, with Gem and Mikita agreeing to become part of my crew. I have a total of four people in my crew right now.
I'm currently looking at the faintly visible black coating on my fingers.
Yes, I somehow unlocked my Armament Haki while running away from that Vice Admiral. I'm sure that person could have destroyed me along with my entire crew.
But for some reason, that person didn't do that; they just took some low-level grunts from my crew and left me to escape. Why? I don't know, but I'll capitalize on this situation and get stronger using the buffer time that the Vice Admiral gave me.
I'm determined never to have to run away again. If I keep running away, my chances of awakening Conqueror's Haki would end up abysmal.
After all, one needs immense willpower to awaken Conqueror's Haki, as far as I know from the explanation in the anime. Perhaps being from a different world would increase my chances? I don't know, and I don't want to leave anything to chance.
I could sense that I could coat my arm with Haki, but I can't seem to do it. Perhaps I lack familiarity with Armament Haki.
As for my Observation Haki, it was pretty basic as well. I could sense the entire ship with my basic Observation Haki; if I tried, I could perhaps sense even a hundred meters around us.
Whatever, let's just forget everything and train until we reach Alabasta. I need to achieve a stronger mastery of Observation and Armament Haki if I am to fight and convince Crocodile to join my crew.
And just like that, three days passed, with me and the crew training and taking breaks only for eating and other daily necessities.
—Third Person—
–Year 1522: March 2–
—Grandline: Alabasta – Nonohana—
Alvida looked at her crewmates and sighed. "I guess nobody is perfect." The reason for her disappointment was that none of her crewmates had unlocked Armament Haki, and Gem and Mikita couldn't unlock Observation Haki either.
They landed in Nonohana early today, just as the sun was barely rising. The ship they used belonged to Baroque Works, so as soon as they landed, they destroyed it and began to walk through the town of Nonohana.
Walking through the crowded and thriving bazaar, they could see a multitude of ships docking and leaving, unloading and loading goods. It was truly a vibrant port town, and they were in disguise to avoid alerting the warlord Crocodile.
"Gem, Mikita, lead us to your boss's place. I'm going to kick his ass and make him join our crew," Alvida said loudly to her new crewmates with a smile.
As expected, they were shocked to hear such a thing from her. They had only known her for three days and had seen what kind of person she was, but to think she would try to fight Mr. 0 like she knew who he was was unexpected.
"No one in Baroque Works knows who Mr. 0 is, and we don't know where he resides," Gem said with a straight face, letting out a sigh. He might have just joined someone with a few screws loose.
"Mr. 5—no, Gem is right. No one knows who Mr. 0 is, Alvida-sama," Mikita added in confirmation.
'Hm, I guessed that. Crocodile in the show was anonymous until Straw Hat destroyed his plans.' She looked at Gem and Mikita and nodded.
For some reason, Mikita had started to call her "sama," as if she were some kind of princess.
As they walked, they heard a distinct sound of someone shouting.
"FOOOOOD!!" A loud voice echoed throughout the street as someone crashed into the restaurant in front of them, taking its door with them.
'That's Luffy! That means Ace is here too!' Alvida thought, excited to see Ace. She hoped to befriend him if possible, as he seemed like a chill dude to her, and his fate was tragic.
"Come on, let's check it out!" she exclaimed with a smile as she ran off to the restaurant, leaving her three crewmates wondering what had her so excited.

Make sure to read the author's note, some reviews would be great to motivate me to write more you know.
L’AVIS DES CRÉATEURS 
Vedora_Tempest
Vedora_Tempest Hey!! Hey!!
Just hear me out before you start complaining! I know it might seem too fast for her to unlock two types of Haki in under a month of being transmigrated into the world of One Piece.
But there is a reason for that; some people might have already guessed this from the chapter, as I've left enough clues.
Also, please review the story so that it can reach more readers.
Author out, peace...
