Angel investor in the One Piece world

In the rain, Damian is saying his final goodbyes to his friends.

"In short, I'm handing my company over to you from now on, my friend."

Damian said with a smile.

The executives of Baroque Works will remain in Alabasta. Besides Barto and his two companions, only Robin will be leaving with Damian.

Although Damian wasn't worried about those guys' loyalty, would they dare to risk offending both Damian and Crocodile by betraying him?

However, loyalty is not a concern; Damian is somewhat worried about their abilities.

Even Mr. 3, who is known for his sharp mind, isn't exactly a genius. It's even harder to say about Mr. 5 and Mr. 4, who are a bit dim-witted.

You also need a good friend to keep an eye on things.

"Also, don't stop your own rehabilitation. Next time we meet, at least make sure you've regained your commanding presence, right?"

Mind your own business.

Crocodile, his good friend, merely sneered, "You think your Haki is that strong?"

This kid's Armament Haki is only at a beginner level; he can't even harden it yet.

"is that so?"

Damian smiled.

The next instant, black and red lightning flashed in his pupils.

"Forehead!!"

Krocdalen was immediately shaken and staggered backward.

Black and red lightning bolts kept leaping out from the surface of his body.

"This! This is!!"

His eyes were filled with disbelief as he looked at Damian. "This level of Conqueror's Haki!!"

This guy having Conqueror's Haki was already surprising enough, but what was most unbelievable was that Damian's Conqueror's Haki was actually this powerful.

It actually managed to inflict physical damage on him! His body was completely paralyzed!

"Mr.1, please keep an eye on their training as well, don't let them slack off. That's all, see you next time."

Damian smiled and soared into the sky, heading towards the Sky Sword hovering in the air.

You must be terrified, my friend.

But when we meet again, Crocodile will probably be completely different, right?

In the original work, it wasn't long after Crocodile went from being imprisoned to shining brightly in the Marineford War. He had already recovered from being beaten up by Luffy's physical skills to being able to easily block a sword strike from Mihawk.

The recovery of such a veteran powerhouse will be quick.

Mr. 1 and his team have already made arrangements.

Mr. 1 and Mr. 2 are the strongest among them. Although Mr. 4 is not very bright, he is very strong physically. All three of them have received the complete Six Styles taught by Damian.

What they need to do next is to continuously practice the six forms and try to master the domineering aura from them.

The other few were no good. Although Mr. 3 had some fancy abilities, his physique wasn't strong enough, and none of them were qualified to learn the Six Styles.

What they need to do is train, constantly making themselves stronger, and then learn the Six Styles.

With that, the matter in Alabasta was considered settled.

Damian landed on the deck of the Sky Sword, where the permanent pointer to Baltimore was already prepared.

"Sail!"

The stern of the large ship spewed out a fierce gust of air once again, propelling it through the air.

on the deck.

"So, brother,"

Barto asked with some curiosity, "Are we going to that so-called mechanical island next?"

"Um."

Damian nodded slightly. "I have two Devil Fruits and want to try to turn them into weapons."

"Are we really going to do that?"

Sanji, who was training nearby, clicked his tongue in amazement. "Brother Damian, isn't this a bit too wasteful?"

"One is a Nature type, the other is an ordinary Zoan type."

Damian looked at Sanji, then at Zoro, and said, "If you want some, you can have it."

"Nature-based?"

Sanji suddenly lost his voice.

Even the most ordinary Devil Fruit sells for 100 million Berries, and the most precious Logia-type fruits are practically priceless!

Now Damian is actually saying he wants to turn a Logia-type Devil Fruit into a weapon?

This goes beyond just being a waste!

"I guess I'll pass. Becoming an ability user means I can't swim anymore!"

Sitting cross-legged on the ship's railing, Zoro intently polishing a sword, a smirk playing on his lips. He held the sword horizontally in front of him, gazing at it with fascination. "Fifty excellent swords, the famous sword Hanazu! I only need one sword!"

He now has three famous swords!

Several senior executives of Baroque Works followed Damian, but Baroque Works has not been disbanded, and the mid-level executives are still serving Crocodile.

The Flower Island that Damian just obtained was taken from Mr. 11, an executive at Baroque Works. In the original work, it was obtained by Tashigi.

"I'll pass."

Sanji shook his head repeatedly.

He was just there to help, and he didn't do much. Moreover, Brother Damian taught him the Six Styles of such precious physical techniques. How could he dare to ask for more?

"So, it's better to make it into a weapon."

Damian chuckled softly.

He paused for a moment, then said, "By the way, come with me. We'll be training in a different place from now on."

Then, turning her head to look at the woman who had been sitting quietly on the other side of the ship's railing, flipping through a book, she said, "Robin, come along too."

Unlike Nami, who relies mainly on props, Robin is still considered a combatant.

"Um."

The woman calmly closed the book and nodded gently.

Damian led the four of them to the gravity training room.

"what?"

Barto was quite surprised. "There's a room like this on the ship?"

It's not like he's never been on this ship before; he's never seen it before.

"This room is special; exercising here is twice as effective."

Damian tilted his head back. "Let's start with three times gravity, so they can experience it."

A ray of light emanated from the crystal pillar in the center of the ceiling.

then.

"Forehead!"

Robin suddenly staggered and almost fell to the ground.

This is--

She looked at Damian in disbelief.

"You've gotten heavier!"

Zoro exclaimed in surprise, "What's going on?"

"I feel a little unwell!"

Sanji clutched his chest, "I feel a lot of pressure inside!"

"Big brother! What is this?!"

Bartolomeo asked in equal surprise.

Three times the gravity did not have much of an effect on them.

After all, they are more than three times stronger than ordinary people.

"It's gravity!"

Robin said gravely, "The gravity in this room has changed!"

"Gravity?"

Sanji simply couldn't believe it.

He was the most cultured among them after Robin, so he naturally knew the significance of manipulating gravity.

"Within this room, gravity can be freely adjusted between one and five times."

Damian smiled and said, "It should be quite suitable for cultivation."

"Fantastic!"

Zoro's lips curled into a smile.

He really enjoys training his muscles, but he's worried that regular weightlifting isn't keeping up with the physical demands of his training!

Thus, the otherwise tedious voyage was filled with spiritual practice.

Damian and Barto practiced Armament Haki, striving to reach the Hardened state as soon as possible.

Sanji is training in the Six Styles in hopes of awakening his Haki as soon as possible.

Zoro and Robin learn the Six Powers with the goal of mastering them as quickly as possible.

Amidst peaceful cultivation, the Azure Sword soared through the sky.

A day later, the large ship flew above a sea of ​​clouds.

The sea of ​​clouds is vast and boundless, truly like an ocean!

The scene was so extraordinary that even those who were engrossed in their cultivation couldn't help but go up to the deck and look down.

"An ocean of clouds?"

Sanji clicked his tongue in amazement, "The Grand Line is truly amazing everywhere."

"Hey! Look! Isn't that an island?"

Barto suddenly pointed in a certain direction below.

When everyone looked over, they saw a white island on the white ocean.

What surprised them even more was...

"Is anyone there?"

Zoro exclaimed in surprise.

Although the Sky Sword was flying very fast, everyone had excellent eyesight and immediately spotted the figures moving around on the island below.

"Could this be the legendary Sky Island?"

Even Robin couldn't help but show a look of surprise.

She had only ever read about the legend of the Sky Island in books.

"Sky Island?" x3.

Barto and the other two all gaped open.

Damian chuckled softly.

What a coincidence!

Is it right on the road to Baltimore?

In that case, wouldn't we just happen to run into the Sky Island God?

Soon after, in the center of this sea of ​​clouds—a white sea ten thousand meters above the surface—on an island made of mud and forest, there was a shrine built on a giant vine.

"Um?"

The god, who was dozing, opened his eyes.

"What's coming?"
