Ascension Or Journey From World To World

The Holy Land Mary Geoise. Pangaea Castle.

A lone guard walked toward the meeting hall of the <Gorosei>. He walked quickly and did not look around. It was surprising that other guards and castle workers passing by did not pay attention to him.

The guard went to the double doors leading directly to the forbidden part of the castle, in which the <Gorosei> held their meetings.

[Now I need to find the treasury and hope that Toki Toki fruit will be there.] Standing in front of the double doors, Ray thought.

He used Observation Haki, trying to find hidden places. Invisible vibrations diverged in all directions and came back. It was like echolocation. Observation Haki does not give the opportunity to "see" in the usual sense. We can say that in this case, the user of Observation Haki sees as a Daredevil from Marvel.

[Found.]

The empty space was under the floor in the middle of the room. As the saying goes: "If you want to hide something, then hide it in a conspicuous place."

[There is nobody in the room. They probably think that there is no fool who would dare steal from the <World Government>.]

 <Shadow Step>

Ray was swallowed by shadows and he appeared in a dark, large room. He instantly used Conqueror's Haki. Ray did it just in case, in addition to Den Den Mushi, there are other animals that can notice uninvited guests and warn the whole Pangaea Castle. And it was not in vain, there were owls almost under the ceiling, these owls perfectly see in the dark and are capable of emitting a startlingly loud cry.

Ray looked around. There were only two c.h.e.s.ts in the room.

"And is that all? Somehow very poor ..." Ray said.

He went to the c.h.e.s.ts and checked them with the help of the Observation Haki. Everything was alright.

Ray opened the first c.h.e.s.t and saw a fruit covered in spiral patterns. This fruit was turquoise in color and looked like a normal mango. Ray extracted from his spatial storage <Devil Fruit Encyclopedia>. He found this book in the tower of Pangaea Castle.

Opening a book, he began to leaf through it. Ray recognized many fruits. There were more than 100 different devil fruits in this book. Leafing through almost to the very end, he found a page on which a turquoise mango was depicted.

"Toki Toki no mi ... so she's really is dead. Honestly, I always thought that she went to the future and survived. If Toki was alive, then Oden would also be alive. Kaido could not kill him, that's not in his style. He breaks down his enemies and forces them to join his team. Do not forget that Oden knew the secret of <Laugh Tale> and could read <Poneglyphs>. Kaido would never have killed such a valuable source of information. Perhaps ... during the execution, Oden was replaced by that old woman owning the powers of Mane Mane no mi fruit. Oden himself was sent to prison on Onigashima. He could have been killed by CP-0 agents, they couldn't let such a person live, and even more so they couldn't let Kaido learn all Oden's secrets. That sounds very plausible ... "Ray reasoned, looking at the fruit.

{<Great Sage> if I use <Predator> on this fruit, can I slow down time by a large coefficient?} Ray asked.

<Great Sage>: {I confirm that after consuming the fruit you can slow down time by 25 times. This is the maximum. To slow down time, even more, you need to become God in the law of time. Or one of your wives should become the Goddess of Time.}

"It looks like this universe wants me to go to Wano as soon as possible," Ray said.

He raised his eyes to the ceiling and looked as though through it.

"Am I right? The universe," he added.

*Sigh*

With a sigh, Ray began to open the second c.h.e.s.t. In this c.h.e.s.t was another devil fruit. It looked like a pineapple in shape. The color was blue. Ray recognized this fruit, its image was at the end of the book. According to the records, no one has owned this fruit since the <Void Century>. But why is such an important fruit here?

[There were only two devil fruits in this room, at first I thought that <Gorosei> and Im did not want to store all the eggs in one basket. But ... this fruit ... with this fruit you can become one of the most powerful people in this world. Do they really have more powerful devil fruits? No, It is Impossible. If there is a fruit stronger than this, then it is now in the tomb under the Pangaea Castle...]

Ray watched this pineapple carefully.

[If information about this fruit becomes available to the whole world, it will cause chaos. Did Doflamingo talk about this "Artifact"?  No. Doflamingo does not think so narrowly.

He said: "Law, you can't imagine what power you own. You don't even understand the whole power of the fruit of Ope Ope no mi. Especially this ability ... with which you can move a person's soul from one body to another. With this power and my knowledge, I could become the ruler of this world! " I can conclude that he spoke about Im or about what is stored in the tomb under the Pangaea Castle. The room in which the straw hat lay was partially covered with ice. The hat was lying on a stone coffin ... the conclusion suggests itself.] Ray reasoned.

He and Renner thought about all the information about the One Piece world for a very long time and searched for the thinnest threads.

Ray put the fruit into his spatial storage and began to look at the floor.

"Interesting. Can I get to the tomb with teleportation? I remember what the room in which the straw hat lay looked ..." Ray said.

At this moment, he received information from his ravens. Fisher Tiger made it to the top of the Red Line. There is no more time.

[No, going to the dungeons of Pangaea Castle is an incredibly stupid idea. It is likely that Im's chambers are there. I am not ready to face such an enemy. <Gorosei> should not be weaker than Yonko, and Im should be stronger than <Gorosei> several times.] Ray thought.

Ray waved his hand and the air began to turn into two devil fruits, mango, and pineapple.

He took these fruits and returned them to the c.h.e.s.ts.

[Until no one touches these fake devil fruits, they will keep their shape.] Ray smiled.

"I don't feel the "Voice" of <Road Poneglyph>, then it is not here. Is it really in the <God Valley> and is guarded by Shanks ... but Shanks has not yet become Yonko. He only became Yonko after he brainwashed Luffy. I can ask Rayleigh for coordinates, "Ray muttered.

"Now I can go visit the "Gods". These space pigs must have different devil fruits," Ray smiled viciously.

*Flash*

Ray disappeared in a flash of flame.

After 5 minutes, a bald old man with glasses appeared in the room. He was dressed in a white kimono, in his hands was a katana.

"Strange. I swear I felt spatial vibrations," said the bald old man.

He went to the c.h.e.s.ts and checked them.

"The devil fruits are in place ... very strange, am I really getting old. These idiots have been looking for the fruit of Nenrei Nenrei no mi for too long. The Sorbet Kingdom ... we can accuse King Kuma of conspiring with the <Revolutionaries> and attack this kingdom. At this time, agents of CP-0 will find the one who ate this fruit and capture this person," said the old man and disappeared from his place.

______

The Domain of the Gods.

Ray appeared on the roof of one of the mansions. It was not even a mansion, it was a huge palace.

He used Observation Haki and began looking for the "voices" of devil fruits. Ray found them in almost every palace.

"Fisher Tiger has already set fire to one of the palaces. I don't have time to pick up these devil fruits," Ray said.

{<Great Sage>, in order for these devil fruits to grow on <Nordrassil>, do I need to touch them myself?} Ray asked.

<Great Sage>: {No. You can use <Bloody Beasts>.}

<Bloody Bats>

Under the feet of Ray appeared a pool of blood from which red bats began to crawl out. All of these bats are made from Ray's blood. This was one of the spells created by the Shalltear.

*Wing-beat*

Flapping their wings, all the bats flew to the sides. In total, Ray felt 16 devil fruits.

"The escape !"

"Slaves escaped!"

"Fire! The Domain of the Gods is burning!"

Ray began to hear screams. Guards ran across the territory and tried to put out the fire. Ray felt the approach of strong auras. All of these auras ran towards Fisher Tiger and other fishman.

"Cipher Pol?"  whispered Ray.

"Ohhh, I know this guy. It's Gildo Tesoro," Ray said, looking at the running thin man.

"Really a miserable guy. Tenryuubito bought his lover. She should already be dead. The slaves whom Tenryuubito bought in person never live longer than a few months. Crazy bastards. They call themselves "Gods", but in reality, they are just clumps of all kinds of sins. Enjoy life, this century will be, the century of the <Fall of the Gods>," Ray said coldly.

He began to release Conqueror's Haki. However, this Haki was filled with an aura of dominance, a dragon aura.

_______

World Government Commander-in-Chief Kong's office.

"What is it? Why am I feeling so weird?" said the muscular man sitting at the big table.

_______

"How interesting. I feel that in this century there will be people who want to challenge me. Fools. No one can defeat God. I will not be defeated, as my grandfather was defeated."

"Sister, we need to run toward Red Port," screamed a girl with orange hair.

She looked about 13 years old.

"If we can't get to Red Port, then let's jump from the Red Line. Maybe we can fall into the water," said a girl with a big head and green hair.

"We can be saved. We will not return to this place," answered a young woman with long, black hair.

These were the three Boa sisters:

Thirteen-year-old Boa Marigold.

Fifteen-year-old Boa Sandersonia.

And sixteen-year-old Boa Hanc.o.c.k.

They were wearing ragged, dirty clothes that look most like ordinary rags.

Their faces were covered in mud.

*Boom*

Something fell right in front of the sisters, because of a blow to the ground a cloud of dust appeared.

Hanc.o.c.k stepped forward and pushed her sisters behind.

A figure dressed in a white suit came out of a cloud of dust. The figure was clearly masculine, there was a mask on his face.

"Go back or die," the masked man said.

"Never! We will never return to this hell," the younger sister shouted.

"You made your choice," the man said.

<Soru>

The man seemed to have disappeared from his place and appeared right in front of Hanc.o.c.k.

<Shigan>

*Whoosh*

His finger cut through the air like a bullet and went straight into Hanc.o.c.k's heart.

Just before the blow, Hanc.o.c.k miraculously dodged. At the right moment, she unlocked the Observation Haki.

"Your death is inevitable," the masked man said coldly.

"Mari, Sonia! Run, I'll hold him back," Hanc.o.c.k shouted.

Marigold tried to answer something, but Sandersonia grabbed her and ran toward Red Port. There were tears in her eyes, she didn't want to leave Hanc.o.c.k, but she needed to save Mari.

"A futile attempt," said the man.

<Soru>

Destroying the ground beneath his feet, the masked man quickly ran after Marigold and Sandersonia.

"Die," the man said.

He aimed his fists straight at the sisters.

"Nooo!" Hanc.o.c.k shouted.

An uncontrolled wave of the Conqueror's Haki spread from her.

But the masked man was much stronger and was not affected by the influence of the Conqueror's Haki.

Hanc.o.c.k ran toward the sisters.

<Rokuogan>

Like a whisper of death, the words of a masked man sounded.

"NO!" Hanc.o.c.k screamed with tears in her eyes.

A wave of compressed air appeared from the man's fists, it was heading straight for the sisters.

Marigold and Sandersonia closed their eyes, the only thing they said was, "Sister, I love you."

"Mari, Sonia. No. No. No. No.", falling to her knees, Hanc.o.c.k began to cry.

"There are a lot of people whom I remember. Isn't she loli Koala? She has such big eyes," said Ray, sitting on the roof.

30 minutes had already passed and all his bats copied the abilities of the devil fruits. There was nothing special. Among all the devil fruits, there were 10 Paramecias, 5 Zoans, and 1 Logia. The logia ... it was the logia of sugar ...

Ray made sure that as many slaves as possible escaped. If the guards tried to grab someone, Ray used the Conqueror's Haki and saved the slaves. At one point, he saw three girls. He did not recognize Hanc.o.c.k and Marigold, but he recognized the large-headed Sandersonia.

"Hanc.o.c.k, she was just starting to become a woman, she wasn't as beautiful as she was in her m.a.t.u.r.e years. She was lucky if Fisher Tiger hadn't freed slaves, she would have become a s.e.x toy. How old is she now ... hmm, she should be 16-17. Yes, another year or two and her beauty would bloom," looking at Hanc.o.c.k, Ray said.

"Hm," he felt a strong aura approaching the sisters.

The owner of the aura was Cipher Pol agent. He landed in front of the sisters and attacked Hanc.o.c.k.

Ray watched very carefully. If the sisters cannot escape, he will kill Agent Cipher Pol.

He saw how Sandersonia grabbed Marigold and ran toward Red Port.

Ray saw the future ... the sisters will die.

Agent Cipher Pol used <Soru> and tried to kill the sisters.

"I don't think so," Ray smiled and disappeared from his seat.

_______

<Rokuogan>

Ray raised his hand and blocked the blow.

"Who are you," Agent Cipher Pol asked.

Ray didn't answer. His index finger began to be covered by the Armament Haki.

Agent Cipher Pol felt threatened and tried to escape, but Ray waved his finger.

*Swish*

A red blade of compressed air burst straight from the finger.

The blade flew towards Agent Cipher Pol and cut his throat.

The masked man fell to his knees and grabbed his throat.

He tried to say something, but all his sounds were like gurgling.

Ray turned toward the sisters. They looked at Ray, their eyes wide open.

Sandersonia stood in front of Marigold, defending her.

"No need to be afraid, I won't hurt you," Ray said.

Sandersonia wanted to answer, but Hanc.o.c.k appeared next to them. She hugged the sisters and began to cry.

Ray did not bother them. Over the past four years, they have experienced a lot. They were enslaved as children and now they have finally become free. Trying to get out of this hell, they met an enemy whom they are not able to defeat. They were given hope and immediately taken away ...

"Thanks"

Ray was too thoughtful and ignored.

"Thanks"

"Ah? Exactly. Is everything all right? Are you not injured?" Ray heard Hanc.o.c.k's voice and answered her.

"Nnn, that's all right. Thanks for saving my sisters," Hanc.o.c.k bowed.

Marigold and Sandersonia repeated the actions of their sister.

Ray smiled: "I just happened to be there. No need to thank."

Hanc.o.c.k shook her head: "If not for you, this man would have killed my sisters."

Hanc.o.c.k spoke the word "man" with disgust and hatred.

"Do you hate men? Well, no wonder, years will pass and your scars will heal," Ray said.

 "I do not hate you. You are our savior," Hanc.o.c.k shook her head.

"My name is Hanc.o.c.k, and these are my younger sisters: Sandersonia and Marigold," she introduced herself.

"My name is Ray Natunus, you can call me Ray," he answered.

"Do you want me to help you escape from here?" asked Ray.

The girls' eyes lit up and they began to nod.

"Take my hand," Ray said, holding out his hand.

Hanc.o.c.k took Ray's hand and squeezed it gently. Marigold and Sandersonia grabbed his other hand.

*Flash*

They disappeared in a flash of flame.

________

Sabaody Archipelago. <Shakky's Rip-off Bar>.

"Rayleigh, do you think he's okay?" Shakky asked anxiously.

"Hahaha, you felt his strength, of course, he is fine," Rayleigh laughed.

But he hid his concern, he was worried about Ray. They have known each other for a little longer than 10 days, but Rayleigh began to consider Ray his close friend. The same goes for Shakky.

"Maybe we should check it out?" Shakky asked.

Rayleigh wanted to answer, but a flame appeared in the middle of the room.

"What is it!? Is it magic? Is it magic!?" screamed Marigold.

"Hahaha, you're right. This is real magic," Ray answered.

"Wow, magic!"  stars appeared in Marigold's eyes.

Sandersonia had a similar expression.

Hanc.o.c.k behaved a little strangely.

"Hey, I'm back," Ray waved his hand toward Rayleigh and Shakky.

"Shakky, can you help them?" Ray asked.

Shakky nodded and led the girls to another room.

Ray went to the bar and sat next to Rayleigh.

"Did you find what you were looking for?" Rayleigh asked.

Ray nodded and showed two fruits.

"This ... she's dead ... then it's true," Rayleigh said.

There was sadness in his eyes. He knew Oden and Toki very well.

"I will pass this fruit to her daughter," Ray said.

"Hiyori is alive?" Rayleigh asked in surprise.

Ray nodded, he said that Toki was able to save her daughter and son.

After that, Ray began to talk about what happened in Mary Geoise.
