One Piece: Starting with God Valley, intercepting the Dark-Dark Fruit

"I was just curious about the Black Dragon General's sense of justice!"

Giger walked ahead on his own, falling half a body length behind, and said without turning his head,

"I told you three years ago that might makes right."

Chapter 118 Nicole Olvia

The Red Earl was sent to the sixth level of Impel Down prison, where he would spend the rest of his life, barring any unforeseen circumstances.

Garp was also on that warship, and he was in charge of escorting him. Given the Red Earl's condition, even if he woke up, he wouldn't be able to cause any trouble.

As Gigg watched the warship carrying the Red Earl gradually disappear from sight, a thoughtful expression appeared on his face.

Lucia walked to Gigg's side, gazed at his profile, and said softly,

"Young Master, what are you thinking about?"

Giger collected his thoughts, smiled at Lucia, and said,

【Transfer Station of World-weary Fiction 1 ⑦ ㈨ ⑨ ⒋ ３⒈ June th】

"Thinking about a Devil Fruit."

Ever since he heard about the Red Earl in Mary Geoise, the name of a Devil Fruit has been stuck in Giger's mind.

This fruit was originally meant for Count Red in the future, and considering Count Red's image, it seems as if the fruit was tailor-made for him.

Its name is Bat Fruit, Mythical Zoan, Vampire Form!

Like all Mythical Zoan-type Devil Fruits, the Vampire Fruit not only far surpasses ordinary Zoan-type fruits in terms of physical enhancement, but also possesses a special ability: to achieve eternal youth by absorbing blood. This means that its user never has to worry about their strength being affected by aging.

These two points alone make the Vampire Fruit a top-tier fruit, not to mention its other very useful abilities.

Giger has decided to make this fruit his second Devil Fruit!

He knew the location of the Vampire Fruit; it was in a ruin in Sleepy Town.

To obtain it, one needs someone who can read ancient texts to accompany them. Giger remembers that Red Earl used the "Transformation Leaf" to create Robin and deciphered the secrets of the ruins before successfully obtaining the Vampire Fruit.

Finding Robin wasn't difficult for Gigg; he just needed to go to Ohara.

The problem is that Robin is currently just a little girl of about 3 years old, and no matter how smart she is, she can't understand much.

(Robin is 11 years older than Luffy. Luffy was born in 1503, and it is currently 1495, which is the time of the Battle of Adewol.)

But that's alright. Robin's mother, Olvia, is definitely quite skilled. With her around, deciphering ancient texts is still quite easy.

Thinking of this, Giger said to Lucia,

"Lucia, let the warships return to port. We'll head back to Naval Headquarters first."

Lucia nodded obediently and went to relay Jig's orders.

Upon returning to Marineford, Giger immediately contacted Spandam via Den Den Mushi and gave him a task: to find Nico Olvia.

Spandam naturally did his best to fulfill the tasks assigned by Giger, and since he had already taken up the position of CP9 Commander-in-Chief, intelligence gathering was exactly his area of ​​expertise.

A few days later, he found Olbia's whereabouts and handed him over to Giger.

According to the information, Olbia's expedition fleet is on its way to the Kingdom of Alabasta.

In the general's office, Giger smiled as he looked at the documents in his hand. He guessed that Olbia's purpose in going to Alabasta was simply to decipher the historical texts there.

However, this also proves the validity of the information; at least he didn't make a wasted trip.

Giger tapped his fingers lightly on the table, pondered for a moment, and then used a Den Den Mushi to call Lucia.

"Lucia, prepare the warships; we're going to Alabasta soon."

......

In the first half of the Grand Line, in a certain sea area near Alabasta,

Holding a box, Olbia stood at the bow of the ship, gazing at the land that was getting closer and closer, a hint of excitement appearing in her eyes.

Not long ago, she received news that there were Poneglyphs in Alabasta, and she immediately came here. The thirty-three people traveling with her on the ship were just as excited.

For this group of people, being able to decipher historical texts is a very meaningful thing, as it not only allows them to realize their value as scholars, but also to understand the truth of the world.

Someone approached Eurythia and said,

"Olbia, we have already contacted the royal family of Alabasta, and someone will be at the port to let us through shortly."

Olbia nodded and said,

"Okay, did they ask us what we were there for?"

“They asked, and I told them we were scholars from Ohara who wanted to come to Alabasta for an investigation, and they welcomed us.”

O'Hara is very famous in the world, and before the incident, people had great respect for O'Hara's scholars.

Olbia brushed a strand of white hair from her forehead, looked down at the box in her arms, a look of sadness in her eyes, and whispered,

"You must be very happy too, right? We'll be able to see the Poneglyphs soon!"

The box contained the ashes of Olbia's husband, who had passed away more than a year ago.

Like Olbia, he had a fervent pursuit of understanding the so-called truth of the world, and this was what he was talking about before he died. Now that they were about to reach Alabasta, Olbia took "him" out again.

Those around him looked sorrowful upon hearing this and silently mourned.

The deck fell silent, but just then, a slightly teasing voice rang out.

"The Poneglyphs? I think I've heard something incredible."

Everyone was startled and jumped in fright. Olbia reacted the fastest, quickly drawing her pistol and searching for the speaker. However, there was no one else on the deck except her companions. Just then, the voice rang out again.

"Don't bother looking, I'm up here."

Everyone looked up abruptly and saw a young man sitting on the mast of the ship.

He was resting his chin on his hand, looking at the group of scholars below with a mocking expression.

The sea breeze blew, and the young man's cloak fluttered in the wind. Under the sunlight, the word "Justice" on the cloak stood out.

However, upon seeing the word "justice," which is meant to give people a sense of security, the group of scholars did not feel at all at all. Instead, they were instantly terrified, their hands and feet turning cold, and some of them even began to tremble.

Olbia pressed her lips together, raised the gun in her hand, pointed it at the young man above, and said coldly,

"who are you!?"

The young man tilted his head, and to everyone's astonishment, he jumped directly off the nearly thirty-meter-high mast, landing steadily as if he had only jumped down a step.

Everyone, including Olbia, looked horrified. They weren't shocked by the young man's behavior, because it was nothing compared to the epaulets on his coat.

They were both scholars, so they naturally recognized the meaning behind the patterns on the black epaulettes.

That's... a Marine Admiral!

Chapter 119 Deterrence

The black general's epaulettes, combined with his youthful appearance, told Olbia that she already knew the identity of the young man in front of her.

Her expression was grave, and she said in a deep voice.

"You are Admiral Black Dragon."

Upon hearing this, everyone on the ship froze in place, as if they had been petrified.

Giger, with his hands in his pockets, chuckled.

"Looks like I'm pretty famous."

After receiving confirmation, Olbia let his hand fall limply, and the gun in his hand clattered to the ground.

As a scholar with a wealth of knowledge, how could she not know what the title of Admiral represents? Standing before them was the Navy's highest combat power. To ordinary people, his strength was so great that even describing him as monstrous would be an understatement.

Because every admiral is capable of destroying a country single-handedly!

Even if everyone on the ship fired their guns at the same time, let alone just one gun, they probably wouldn't be able to hurt Giger in the slightest.

Olbia suppressed her fear and forced a smile.

"General Heilong's deeds have long been known throughout the sea, and your photo has been published in newspapers several times, so we naturally recognize you."

"Oh? I see..."

Giger feigned a look of realization and walked towards the group opposite him.

However, with each step he took, Olbia and the others subconsciously took a step back. Giger tilted his head, and the next second, he instantly appeared in front of Olbia.

Olbia had never seen such speed before. She was so frightened that she took two steps back. Perhaps because of her guilt and fear, she slipped and fell backward.

hum!

Giger emitted a gravitational pull that dragged Olbia back, and with a snap, Olbia's face was pressed directly against Giger's chest.

However, the urn she had been holding in one arm fell to the ground, scattering grayish-white ashes everywhere.

As luck would have it, a sea breeze blew by and carried all the ashes away, and they disappeared completely in no time.

"..."

After a brief silence, Olbia let out a heart-wrenching scream.
