30 Chapter 29 (2/2)

”Princess that's not a good idea you don't know what could happen here!” Igaram looked worried for her safety.

”Don't worry Igaram. I need to do something to keep myself from worrying about Alabasta. Plus I will be going with Luffy, and I trust he will protect me.” Vivi told Igaram with a confident smile.

”But princess, this island is dangerous you could get hurt, it would be safe if you stay on the ship.” Igaram tried dissuading her from going with me.

”I am well aware Igaram, but we also need to find a Log Pose that has already recorded the magnetic field here, and I'm not going to let them do all the work for us.” Vivi declared adamantly.

”You are a stubborn one princess, but I respect your decision.” Igaram gave up trying to dissuade her and turned towards me.

”Please keep her safe, without her Alabasta has no future.” He told me with a pleading look.

”Don't worry I will make sure she is safe,” I assured him and patted his shoulder.

”I'm coming with you as well,” Nojiko stated while hugging my arm and I heard Sanji cursing me silently when he saw that.

Since no one else wanted to come with me, I gave a few orders to the rest of the crew.

”Zoro, we are running low on food, can you go and hunt some big dinosaur for us?” I asked him.

”With pleasure.” Zoro grinned at me and hopped off the ship.

”Johnny, Yosaku time to see how much you have improved. If you don't bring something as big as Zoro, I can guarantee you will be the first to learn Observation Haki.” I told them with a menacing smile, which made them tremble. Scrambling they jumped off the ship as well.

”Wait for me I will come with you,” Mikita said, before going with them.

”Nami, I want you to guard the ship and make sure no one boards it. Also if you see any giants, know that they mean us no harm.” She looked puzzled but promised to be on the lookout. I trust no one will be able to sneak up on her, considering she can sense the air movement around her. I will also make a few clones to guard them in secret.

Aisha decided to stay with Nami and help protect the Going Merry. Ever since accepting her as my second woman, they have become even closer. Not only do they sleep together, but at night they ask me to sleep with them, and there is no way I can refuse to both of them.

”Xander, I know you are not part of the crew, but can you please keep them safe, while I explore the island?” I trust in his strength considering he is a Logia user. We sparred a few more times the past two days, and I was improving by leaps and bounds while fighting him. Xander also started to develop strategies to deal with opponents who are way superior to him in speed.

”You took me with you and didn't ask for anything in return. That's the least I could do for you.” He politely told me with a smile.

Xander is always very polite when speaking with someone from the crew, which makes me believe he is from a noble family. He got along with us quite well in the past couple days and especially hit it off with Ussop. They tend to lock themselves in the workshop room, crafting various items together.

”I'm here too as well!” Sanji said with his arms crossed and foot tapping the floor.

”Shishishi, I know, but you can't turn yourself into a giant Ironman or wrap the Going Merry with iron, protecting it in the process.” Sanji grumped and threw my lunchbox at me without saying anything.

Vivi jumped on Carue and got ready to explore the island, while Nojiko grabbed my hand and whispered in my ear.

”If you create a clone to guard Vivi, we could spend some time with just the two of us. You can't make me wait too long, and I'm tired of listening to my sister and Aisha moaning. You have no idea, how much I want you and what I want to do to you.” Hearing her, I started heating up, but I managed to control myself.

”Let's go and see what Little Garden has in store for us. We also have to try and find a Log Pose from someone that has been here before us.” I stated, pretending not to hear Nojiko. Before we started our adventure, I created three clones and secretly left them around the Going Merry. They will watch over the crew, in case something unexpected happens. Otherwise, they will not interfere. They created three more clones, which were sent to explore the island and hopefully find an undamaged Log Pose.
