One Piece: The Power System

Chapter 49 - The Final Treasure!

Nami stood and watched as Rein went through the c.h.e.s.t, she was to short to join him and couldn't fly to get up. He looked at the Crystal ball and put it into his storage to check later. Rein also saw two small stones, one was red while the other was yellow. The c.h.e.s.t was pretty big but it didn't have much in it, he spotted a Burgundy carpet with gold design going through it.

"This c.h.e.s.t it big but it doesn't have much to offer besides the Orb, the carpet, and these two colorful stone." Rein shrugged, he didn't care much, he felt like he had gained a lot from this place already.

"Huh? Colorful stones? Let me see them!" Nami grew restless after hearing about some stones. Rein grabbed the stone and tossed them to her and she caught them.

"Yes, these are what I need!" Nami had always carried that staff on her back which Rein never bother to ask about. She took the staff off her back and insert them into their respective colors on the staff.

The staff flashed Red and Yellow once the insertion was complete.

"Let's give it a try!"

"Wait, hold up, you can do that some other time, don't do whatever you're going to do now!" Rein hurriedly and spoke, he had a bad feeling about what she was trying to do. Nami halted and chuckled, she was feeling excited to try this new staff.

With that, he simply tossed the strange carpet into his storage without looking at it anymore. He was going to properly investigate these items once they were back on the ship. "Hmm, that carpet, can you bring it back out, I want to see it." Nami took an interest in the carpet Rein stored away.

"Uh, sure!" He took it back out and handed it to Nami to inspect. She unrolled it and blew it out into the air to get rid of dust if there was any. Nami scratched her head and laid the carpet on the ground and sat on it.

Suddenly, the carpet began to float into the air with Nami on it!

"What the...." Rein scrunched his face.

"It a flying Carpet!" Nami had read fairytales about this but wasn't sure, she thought it wouldn't work, she was expecting to look very stupid for what she was doing. Nami was so surprised that her ridiculous theory was right!

Rein had a dumbfounded smile on his face that seemed stiff, he had seen some crazy things in one-piece world, but a flying carpet? "It's one piece, I don't think it isn't possible, who knows what the one piece really is?" Nami seemed to be able to control it, she was surprisingly not scared like he was expecting.

"Hehe, hop on, we can use this to fly around instead, it's more convenient!" Rein hoped on, and thought, what could be next, Genies in lamps!?

Nami flew the Carpet like she had done it all her life, she seemed to understand how to move the carpet like her body. Rein wouldn't ask if no one volunteered to tell, so he didn't ask like he usually never did.

"This carpet is amazing!" Nami said excitedly, she was a year younger than what she was in the series, so she was liberated from Arlong a bit early, thus she was a bit more cheerful.

Her hair was blowing into the wind with how fast she was moving the carpet. Rein had grown used to these types of movements because he could fly, so he didn't feel sick or scared of heights like he used to be.

Time passed and they continued to fly around in this closed-off place. This place was big but had its limit, it also had a fake sky which may have been painted on, who knows for sure? Rein and Nami had even passed Erica and Nojiko a few times but still found nothing.

Nojiko appeared to have wanted to say something but Nami kept flying carpet without stopping to see what she wanted. Anger could visibly be seen on Nojiko face from this, at least Rein could see it. Rein wanted to laugh but held back, what if she saw him doing that, then she would think he was in on it.

"Is there anything else in this place? Haven't we checked everywhere only to find nothing else!" Nami felt like there had to be more to it than just some trees, a block of Ancient text on it, and a treasure c.h.e.s.t. Rein couldn't agree more, his mission was still ongoing so there had to be more here.

This time when they passed by, they saw Nojiko waving her hands to get their attention. Nami planned to pass her again but he told her land down there to see what she wanted. Nami pouted because she felt like Nojiko might take her new flying carpet, she already had a cool cat.

Once they landed, Nojiko glared at Nami who was whistling and looking away!

Bonk!

Nojiko fisted Nami over the head!

"Ouch! What was that for?" Nami rubbed her head with tears in her eyes.

"You clearly saw me earlier but you ignored me!" Nojiko then looked at Rein.

"I didn't see anything, she must have ignored you but I wouldn't ignore my great friend!" Rein said in a hurry.

"He's right, we didn't see you!" Nami followed up and said.

"Yawn, they're lying, they both saw you but you were mainly ignored by Nami! Checheche!" The Cheshire Cat suddenly spoke and ratted them out!

At that moment, it was deadly silent, only the wind could be heard. Rein looked at the cat who was peeking at him. "Don't be mad great captain, I just don't want my master to not be fooled, you know?"

The Cat defended itself.

"Sigh, forget it! My cat buddy here discovered a cave nearby. Erica is already exploring it, she told me to get your attention so you guys can join us." With that, she led them to the cave and the Cheshire cat was able to sense.

They were eventually at the cave and walked into it. Nami asked Nojiko if she could borrow her cat sometime, she clearly wanted it for treasure hunting.

"No Way!" Nojiko said right away.

"Checheche!" The cat only laughed seeing Nami's desperate face.

"Come on, just a little!" Nami put her hands together in a praying manner and asked.

"Maybe, we'll have to see," Nojiko said.

"Yes!"

Suddenly, they came into a big cave room, there they saw Erica looking at something that was on a table in the cave. "Oh, you guys finally came after you ignored us when we were calling you so much!"

Erica said after seeing the two.

"Nami was just enjoying herself so much that she couldn't land the carpet." Rein blamed Nami and said.

"Damnit, Rein, you were enjoying yourself too!" Nami looked at Rein and said.

"Well, it's over, what did you find?" Rein changed the subject and said.

"This, take a look at it. I've never seen anything like this before" Rein looked at the large table and saw what appeared to be a toy city in a glass. There was actual water surround the city within the glass display, it looked so real!

[Explore the Mysteries Of Myriad Island!] [Completed!]

[Handing out Rewards!]

⭑ Congratulations Rein, you've received: 15 Skill Points

⭑ Congratulations Rein, you've received: 50,000 System Points

⭑ Congratulations Rein, you've received: System Update Version 1

"Say what now!?" Rein was surprised to see the notification, he had completed the mission! Just what was this city in a glass for it to complete his mission?

Rein looked around a saw several flags hanging up with a chimera on them with the letters MK on them. The Kingdom seemed to view the Chimera as some sort of special symbol.

Rein walked over to the City in the glass display and picked it up, it required to hands to pick up or you would end up dropping it or breaking it on one side due to the uneven weight on one side.

"System, scan this item for me, tell me what it is." Rein said in his head.

[Scanning....]

"Yes, it's actually scanning it!"

[Ding! Myriad Kingdom In a display! Ancient Artifact!]

"What!? Can you tell me more?" Rein was shocked, was this a kingdom from long ago that had been stored?

[Would you like to update the system? y/n]

"Yes, please update it!" The system seemed to require an update to gain more info. Suddenly, he heard another notification.

[Update! 4%]

[The previous owner of this Artifact has died, would you like to become the owner?]

"Gasp! Yes!" Rein answered without thinking.

[Ding! Newly registered owner, Rein!]

Owner: Monkey D. Rein

Inhabitant Count: None

"Can I put people in the display to live in?" If this was really the case then he truly found a treasure like no other! Not only that, but he could find people, then he could put them in here to stay until he made his Island in the New world!

Rein smiled and put the display in his storage for later. Everyone just watched him, Rein had been standing there smiling and making all types of faces. "Are you alright, you aren't going crazy on us, are you?" Nami suddenly said.

"Nope! It's just that we found something good!" Everyone wanted to ask more but they'll do that once they were back on the sea. Rein looked over and saw a little treasure c.h.e.s.t in a dark corner, it was very hard to notice in this cave with barely any light.

He casually walked over to the dark corner to get the c.h.e.s.t. Rein picked it up and found that the c.h.e.s.t wasn't locked. So, like most people, he opened it to check it out. Erica and company walked over with torches in their hands.

Once he opened it, it revealed a Devil Fruit that looked like a pineapple with blue, red and yellow over it. Rein scanned the fruit and found that it was the Cat-Cat Fruit, Model: Chimera, it was a myth Type.

"I guess I should have seen this coming, but I'm not a fan of the Chimera." Honestly, he didn't like the Chimera looks, well, he didn't like the goat on its back. Thus, he decided to sell the fruit without much thought. The Fruit sold for 1.5 Million system points, so he gained a lot from the sale.

Everyone was silent, they thought he stored whatever was in the c.h.e.s.t, they didn't see what was in it.

"Okay, let's get out of here! We have nothing left to do on this island." Rein was satisfied with this hunt and was ready to leave this Island. He had a total of 2,289,150 System Points, this made him feel even better.

"Okay, we can count our earning on the ship, hehe! By the way, where are we heading next?" Nami asked.

"LogueTown!"

An hour later or so, they arrived near the exit. There were several cut down trees in the area as dirt clouds were in the air. This was apparently from their fall when they were cut down by Vindicate and Kuina.

Once everyone arrived, they shocked and scared from what they were seeing. They saw a huge Jack O' Lantern with a scythe in its hands cutting down trees. However, its appearance was different from Vindicate's appearance back in the forest. The thing looked much more sinister and creepy, it had black smog around it leaking everywhere.

"I-is it Vindicate?" Nojiko tried to calm down looking to very eerie creature.

"No!" Rein plainly said.

"WHAT!? Then who is it?" Nami back away in fear, she had her fair share of creepy things on this Island.

"It was Vindicate who summoned it, he is also controlling it to do his bidding for him." He knew this wasn't Vindicate but something he created, this ability was similar to Basil Hawkins ability to control a Giant Scarecrow. However, it didn't have the drawbacks like Basil's straw-straw fruit, that if you were to take damage, the summoner or the one who formed it would suffer damage in the place it was wounded.

Basil used others to take damage instead of himself so he was able to avoid it most of the time. However, Vindicate's power was a Mythical Zoan so he wouldn't take damage if his summoned or formed creature got hurt.

"That thing is so creepy, maybe we should make a rule that he can't summon or form that thing, ever!" Nojiko and Nami both agreed when Nojiko suggested it, but how could Rein agree to that?

Rein and company walked over and Kuina and Vindicate were sparring, Kuina was using a sword and Vindcate was using a Scythe he formed. Rein's mouth twitched seeing the two fighting instead of cutting trees. Once they saw Rein they stopped their spar and came over.

"Nice, you're back, we collected some tree and enough wood, I think!" Vindicate said with a smile.

Then the Giant Jack O' Lantern stopped and flew over towards them.

"Ah!"

"No! Don't call it over!"

Nojiko and Nami were horrified, definitely Nami!

"Don't worry, he won't attack you." Vindicate said, "Oh, did you guys find anything good out there?"

"Yeah, we found a good amount of things, we can leave now!" Rein didn't bother to ask them anything, the job of cutting down trees was done. Erica was already on the case and started putting the tree into her storage ring, it was almost at its limit and this was a mid-grade ring!

"The door locked itself but we found a platform that'll teleport us out of here for good!" Kuina sheathed her sword and spoke.

"Oh, where will it teleport us to?" Rein asked.

"There is a map on the Platform so we can choose where to teleport to on the island," Kuina confirmed.

"Phew, convenient right, now we won't have to do all that walking!" Vindicate was happy when they discover this place, they found it when his Iron Maiden was cutting down trees.

"Can you get rid of this thing now, I think it's staring at me!" Nami was feeling paranoid with this thing hovering around them.

"I think it wants to play with you, how about it?" Vindicate grinned and called the creature closer! He knew about her experience in the trial and knew she was slightly traumatized by those monsters.

"AHH! Don't go too far Vindicate!!" Nami hollered.

Moments later, they were at the platform ready to take leave.

"Set it near the shore, so we can just get on our ship and book it!" Rein wanted to leave as soon as possible, he didn't want to run into some more conflictive people like that Cloud and Baron guy again.

"Alright, setting it near the shores in the desert area we came from!" Nami targeted the desert on the map and pushed the button.

Suddenly, the space twisted and everyone on the platform warped away!
