AN:- THIS IS THE START OF VOLUME 2. BTW, MAKING DRAFTS AND MAKING ChapterS ARE COMPLETELY DIFFERENT THINGS. I'LL EXPLAIN IT IN AUTHOR'S NOTE. ANYWAYS, HOPE YOU LIKE Chapter 15.

[PREVIOUSLY ON GAMER PIECE]

"Smoker, Calm down and Return to Base. Sengoku wants to talk to you personally. for now, forget about the Strawhats." This voice, a deep, but calm voice, makes a smoker reminisce about his past a little bit. since this voice belongs to-

"Understood...Zephyr-Sensei."

[THIRD-POV]

[MARINEFORD]

Smoker is pissed off about the entire situation. He is Currently In MarineFord, the Marine Headquarters, where he has been summoned to meet the Fleet Admiral, the boss of the Marines for some odd reason. His Sensei, the one who trained him, Zephyr called him and ordered him to come to base, while abandoning the mission to chase and capture the Strawhats.

Remembering about the strawhats makes Smoker more pissed than before, those bastards escaped from his clutches yet again. While he might admit that staying in Loguetown made him arrogant to believe that no one would run from him, the Strawhat Pirates not only ran from him once, but THREE FREAKING TIMES.

"S-Sir?" his Subordinate, and protégé Tshigi calls him out, making him look at her. He still feels anger when he looks at her injuries. She had many broken bones, and cuts all over her body. While the damage was healed, she now has a scar over her arms, her stomach and even a scar in her forehead. (AN:- Similar to the scar that Coby has Post Timeskip)

"We should go in." Tashigi points to the door leading to the Fleet Admirals room, and Smoker sighs, releasing Smoke out of his mouth. He is smoking, and even being near the big boss is not gonna make him spithis cigar out. HE nods, making Tashigi take a deep breath, calming her nerves, while Smoker puts his hand on the door, pushing it and-

"You are late." Smoker looks up, to see a chair in the high ground, and sitting there, is the big boss of the Marines. Sengoku The Buddha.Sengoku is a tall, fair-skinned, and muscular man with a long, braided goatee and a mustache. He is usually seen alongside his pet goat. His cap covers his hair, which is set in a large afro.He typically wears black-rimmed glasses and a white and gold full Marine admiral uniform that is adorned with medals. The most distinctive features of this uniform are a life-size seagull on top of his cap, and his oversized Marine coat which he wears like a cape. His coat has the kanji for justice, in blue, emblazoned on the back, and has unique colored cuffs, with his being white.

"My Subordinate was quite nervous, so I had to calm her down." Smoker removes his Cigar and lets out a puff of smoke.

Tashigi looks at Smoker in betrayal. How could he? She might be thinking. A sigh erupts from the side of the room, and from the shadows, comes out a person who is wearing a glass. Smoker rolls his eyes, shows off.

The person who came from the shadows is Zephyr. Zephyr or Black Arm" Zephyr is a large, muscular, tan-skinned man, standing around twice the height of a typical man, with short purple hair and a large mechanical right arm connected to the left hip with converted mast rigging. Underneath that mechanical arm is a regular-sized and pitch-black prosthetic arm.he wears baggy trousers tucked into his boots, and a pair of triangular sunglasses.

"Can you stop putting others under the bus?" Zephyr scolds Smoker, showing just how much he knows Smoker. Smoker shrugs, making it seems that he doesn't care, but that's when-

"Bwahahaha, you have one hell of a student Z." A laughter reverberates in the room, making Sengoku and Zephyr annoyed. The voice reveals itself as the Hero Of the Marines, Monkey D Garp.

Garp is a tall, tanned, broad-chested, muscular old man. He has a beard and a scar over his left eye.his eye color is blue, and his hair is gray. Smoker notices something, but before he could think upon it, Sengoku speaks up with a serious voice.

"Now, Captain Smoker, Explain WHY you left your Post in Loguetown. And remember, don't leave any details." Sengoku narrows his eyes, and a pressure surrounds Smoker, making him sweat. Smoker mods, deciding to explain everything.

And he does, Smoker explains everything, from his subordinates informing him about the StrawHats Arriving at Marineford, to The Call from Zephyr, making Him lose the StrawHats. Smoker stares at Zephyr, but it isn't effective since he is staring at his Glasses.

Smoker also explains all the abilities that he figured out that the StrawHats have. From his first fight with Luffy to his recent fight with Roronoa Zoro. Tashigi continues his words by explaining her fight with a monster looking like a deer and then-

"Wait, hold up. You....heard the voice of all things?" Garp asks in surprise, sitting straight and putting his rice crackers to the side. Tashigi gets nervous, and Smoker gets confused. Even he was confused when Tashigi explained her situation, but it might seem that Garp, even Zephyr and Sengoku know what is happening to Tashigi.

"y-yes sir!" Tashigi Yelps a reply due to her nervousness. Garp looks at Zephyr and Sengoku, all of them come to a single answer.

"so, you learned Observation Haki This early on huh? Interesting. Continue." Smoker's eyes widen, finally understanding what Tashigi's newly awakened power is. Tashigi is confused but still continues on with her explanation. Smoker starts thinking to himself.

At first, he didn't understand what tashigi was talking about, since she was talking gibberish like she was hearing things, but now that the most powerful marines have said what this is, Smoker understands. Smoker knows what Observation Haki is, even if he personally doesn't have it. the fact that HIS protégé has unlocked it makes him proud of her, but from his knowledge, there is one question that is bothering him-

"wait. you are saying that- you were not able to 'sense' this Rai person when he 'disappeared' or his weapons 'disappeared'?" Smoker notes that this is the same question he had in mind, but when Tashigi nods, all the three start discussing amongst themselves in low whispers-

"is there a person out there that can disappear from observation haki-"

"it must be a devil fruit power, but the Suki-Suki No Mi is in the hands of Gecko Moria-"

"must be some other devil fruit. but for it to not be in the Encyclopedia-"

"maybe it was a fruit which was never discovered by the World Gover-"

Similarly, the three Superiors continue whispering, after a minute, they look back at Tashigi and Smoker, making Tashigi squirm under their serious gaze and Smoker to be surprised that even Garp, the supposed easy- going of the trio, is serious.

"Chief Petty Officer Tashigi, I want you to explain every single detail you know about this Rai Person." Smoker raises his eyebrow, since the tone that Sengoku is using is serious. After thinking about it, it would make sense. While Tashigi explains all she knows about Rai, Smoker goes back to thinking.

From what he has heard till now, it would make sense WHY Sengoku would want as much information as possible. Haki is a power that allows someone to use their Willpower to either attack, subdue or receive incoming attacks. Haki is a power that the World Government is reliant on since it is one of the most effective ways to deal with Devil fruit users across the world. the fact that there might be a person in the world that is somehow resistant to this power, then it is a cause for concern.

Smoker continues from Tashigi, explaining how Rai helped Roronoa Zoro to develop a technique to counteract his smoke abilities. He is still pissed off about that. even though he didn't know that he had a weakness like that.

"So, HE is Smart enough to rile an officer up-" Tashigi goes red with embarrassment when Sengoku speaks up. and even anger at Rai. even Smoker is angry at Rai for the words he said to Tashigi. THAT DAMN SEXIST-

"- he can figure out weaknesses of devil fruits that had no weaknesses till now-" Smoker is annoyed that this matter is brought up by Zephyr. His weakness being brought up is pissing off smokers even more.

"- AND has an ability that allows him to bypass the senses of an Observation Haki User, even though she might be terrible at using it." Garp finishes up for Sengoku. Tashigi winces, and Smoker is pissed off for real this time. why the hell is Monkey D Garp pissing on-

Wait. Monkey D-

"The Strawhat is your relative?" Smoker is surprised that it comes out of his mouth. he looks at Garp who snapped his head towards him, causing Smoker to sweat at the pressure being extruded from Garp-

"Garp, Calm down. we don't wanna knock these poor fletchlings out." Sengoku speaks up, causing Garp to turn towards him and....pout?

"how the hell did he-"

"your name you idiot. you and your grandson have the same name if you forgot. obviously people will figure out you are related to them." Senoku narrows his eyes at Garp, causing Garp to throw his hands in the air in frustration.

"I told That brat to join the Marines-"

"YOU COULDN'T CONTROL YOUR GODDAMN GRANDSON YOU IDIOT. BECAUSE OF YOUR STUPIDNESS, A FUCKING WARLORD IS DOWN." Sengoku gets up in rage, causing Garp to stay still while his friend releases his anger. Zephyr cleans his ears while looking elsewhere, not even wanting to be a part of this.

Smoker sweat drops, at the 180* Attitude change from Garp. But he Swallows his spit, calming himself from the outburst from what he thinks is Conqueror's Haki. he looks towards Tashigi to see her shaking, almost losing consciousness. Smoker puts her hand on her shoulder, making her look at him, and calming herself eventually.

"Okay, thanks for the important information that you guys have given, you may leave now." Sengoku mods, and then looks to both his friends, expecting Tashigi and Smoker to leave the room. while Tashigi immediately turns to run away from the room, Smoker has one question that he wants to ask.

"why did Strawhat Luffy's bounty not get updated?" he narrows his eyes, thinking about how corrupt the Marines are that they will not update a bounty on a dangerous person JUST because of his relationship to the Hero Of the Marine-

"Well, we would have if SOMEONE had picked up the Transponder Snail when We Called two weeks ago but-" Smoker's face becomes red from embarrassment, but Sengoku still had more facts to spew.

"-But NOOO! That Someone had to be Mr "I Smoke, So I Am So Cool"! GET OUT!" Sengoku screams, causing Smoker to turn and run out of the room, embarrassed while Garp laughs hysterically.

"So Zephyr, you wanna take the case-" THe door closes before Smoker could hear more, and he sighs, releasing that he MIGHT have instigated things beyond his comparison. and that it MIGHT be his fault in the first place-

"Oi, What the hell are you looking at?" He glares at Tashigi, who is shaking, mostly due to laughter.

"YOU-"

[FIRST POV]

[GOING MERRY]

"how did you know about my dream?" Now that We are far away from danger, Zoro approaches me while I am lying down on the deck, my hands behind my back. I look confused, so he explains.

"The Promise I made, only I and My Master know it. How did you know?" Zoro has a serious tone. While I can guess that he wouldn't point swords at me IF I don't tell him a possible answer, any favor I had with Zoro might be lost since he won't be able to trust me. while he might not care about me knowing other's secret-

His secret is something very important to him. as important as his Wado Ichimonji. I know I have to give him a satisfactory answer, so I start thinking. my Gamer's mind, combined with My High INT, WIS and my perk, i start formulating a reason.

PERK - GENIUS TRAIT

DESCRIPTION:-

This Perk allows the user to understand and process information at a tremendous rate.This perks makes the user highly analytical and makes the brain go faster during rapid thinking.It Boosts INT by 50% and gives a special effect of Super Speed thinking, allowing for faster brain processing during analytical thinking.

This skill allows a 50% increase in my INT stat permanently, while also giving me Super Speed thinking when I am thinking deeply about something, like right now. I try to think of something and my eyes go to the sword on his hilt, the Wado Ichimonji-

"Oi, Answer me." Zoro snaps me out of my thoughts, and I realize that I haven't answered him for the past five seconds, but looking at Wado Ichimonji, I get an idea.

"What do you know about Wado Ichimonji?" Zoro looks Confused, so i tell him that i will start from the beginning, gathering my random story line, while also remembering a crucial detail about Zoro's past.

his relation to Kuina being more than a promise.

"Wado Ichimonji is one of the 21 Great Grade Swords, and was forged by a blacksmith named Shimotsuki Kouzaburou. the father of Shimotsuki Koushirou." Zoro'

Zoro's eyes widen when he hears his Master's name. but this also makes me remember one thing. Zoro's bloodline being related to them.

"My master?" He looks surprised, but then a look of realization comes upon him.

"that old geezer was the one who created this sword?" Zoro picks up Wado Ichimonji and looks at in surprise. I don't know who this 'geezer' is. I completely forgot that Zoro met Shimotsuki Kouzaburou when he was little.

"Due to Wado being one of the 21 Great Grade swords, I kept tabs on it just in case, but who knew it would fall on YOUR hands. like, the irony." Zoro looks at me in confusion, and while I know Zoro won't care about this knowledge anyways, it is good to tell him.

"After you became a pirate hunter in east blue, I looked into your past to figure you out, and to my suprise, you were trained under Shimotsuki Koushirou, especially you being related to him in blood." Zoro looks at me in surprise yet again, and I nod.

"related?" i sigh, acting like this is annoying, but getting even a second of time to formulate my words to continue my bullshit-

Well, this is the truth, but you get my point.

"You are related to Shimotsuki Ryuma. The God Of The Blade." Zoro looks confused, and I sigh loudly this time, annoying Zoro.

"Sword God Ryuma, is from Wano Country and he is hailed as the strongest swordsman in the void century. you are a direct descendant Of THAT Ryuma. your parents illegally immigrated from Wano Country years ago and founded the Shimotsuki Village." Zoro is still surprised, I mean, this is big information if you think about it.

Zoro is interested in something else though-

"How does this relate to my Promise?" He looks impatient, and I almost smile, since this Zoro is the same as I know, a person who doesn't give a shit about backstories and all.

"Well, since I was a child, I was in the information treading business, I joined a group whose entire life revolves around information. and they collected all information about the sword god Ryuma and his descendants. even Kuina, the daughter of your master. and I can guess you can understand what happens next." Zoro looks at me with Disgust, and it is reasonable too, at least if this bullshit were real that is.

"You are a creepy weirdo." He shakes his head when I shrug at his accusation. there is no point in denying it if i wanna continue my bullshitting backstory. and now that i remember-

While I upgraded some skills during my week of training, it is still not much, but it is satisfactory. The feeling of growing stronger, and having the ability to confirm that you ARE going stronger is one of the biggest thrills of my life. While I might not be much of a fighter, just seeing these stats rise up while I get new skills, it makes me addicted to grow stronger.

Maybe, the Gamer's mind influences my thought process into an addictive Leveling Up Player.

"Luffy, what are we supposed to do with that Ship?" Usopp raises a question that has been bugging him since the start. He points towards Bon Clay's ship, and the people in the ship start panicking, Bon Clay interrupts them by Speaking directly to luffy.

"Those are my people-YO. I am not gonna abandon them."He puts his foot in this matter, and all of us can see what he wants. He wants his ship and his people to come with us. but Nami raises an objection.

"But, having two ships would slow us down If Marines attack us. we would have to drag that Ship with us when we are getting fired- No Offense." She looks at the sad faces of the BOn Clay squad and back-pedales in criticizing them.

Bon Clay nods, understanding, but he still does not want to abandon his mates.

"what should we do then?" Luffy raises a question, normally, he should be answering it, but then-

Everyone looks at me? I raise my eyebrow, but shrug.

It seems that everyone here trusts me enough to let me make the plan. I look over to the other ship, counting all the members in it, and a total of 12 Humans and 50+ Dugongs. I-

Huh, this might work.

"Well, I MIGHT have an idea. CHOPPER!" I scream for Chopper to come out, and he comes out from the lounge and wobbles to me. I point him at the dugongs, and he understands what I want from him. I turn to look at Luffy and propose my idea.

"These guys could come under us as a GrandFleet." Everybody looks at me in confusion, except Robin, who has a surprised look on her face. knowing nobody here understands what i am saying, i explain.

"A Fleet is a subordinate of us, the main crew. They sail under OUR Flag, meaning whatever they do, they are under OUR protection. These fleets are mostly used as scouting regiments or backups if our Crew gets into a fight with other crews in the sea." Luffy looks like he is contemplating, while the others nod their head in understanding. The Dugongs start speaking something, and Chopper translates it to us.

"We are okay with it." all of the Dugongs give a thumbs up, but Luffy unsurprisingly denies this.

"No. I don't want to be a pirate that forces other people to come under them. this GrandFleet Nonsense feels too restricting." I expected this, so I looked at the other ship, looking at them and indicating to them to give an answer.

"It's your choice. you guys could come UNDER our flag, or you guys can do your own thing. you guys decide- and No Bon, No Influencing them." I look at Bon CLay, who is trying to secretly make him agree. She scratches his head in embarrassment, and we all look upon the Other ship.

the Dugongs already said yes, and to reaffirm it, they nod their head again, while the humans talk among themselves for a couple of minute until-

"yeah, we are okay coming UNDER your flag. we just wanna stay connected with Bon Clay-sama." a dude, whose name is Wiggi Wiggi (don't ask me why) speaks up, being the representative.

I look at Luffy and shrug, and he looks at me, and shrugs.

"Okay then." immediately, the second ship screams in joy, excited at the prospect of being under the Strawhat Crew.but, someone steps up to start talking.

"Now now, calm your horses my people. you might not know how to move around these waters without a leader guiding you, DO NOT WORRY. Captain Usopp-sama will-"

"Oi, here you go-" I toss Wiggi Wiggi a spare Transporter Snail, since he came front and spoke on behalf of all the members of the ship, i decided to make him the leader of this Fleet.

"my number is in there, i will contact you if anything comes up. until then, you guys can act as my Information network." I smile at the awed look that the Fleet members are giving me, while I ignore Usopp's flabbergasted look. I basically simented myself as the superior that commands the grand fleet.

"Oi, what are you doing?" I look back at Usopp's pissed off face. i know he isn't truly pissed off but putting an act, and i shrug, leading him to continue speaking.

"don't you know that i have more than 8000 Men under me-"

"WOW!" Chopper is awed at what USopp is teeling, causing Usopp to swell in pride, while i start walking towards the lounge to pick up paints to create the flag, while passing Usopp, i pat him on the shoulder.

"Sure Sure, If You WILL have 8000 Men under you, then I Am GOD." I smirk at his face, realizing that he has been caught, and continue to go inside.

After this, I bring out the paint and drop it to Usopp, which causes him to stare at me, this time genuinely pissed off, but I start talking to the Fleet Leader Wiggi and instructing him on what to do. and what I expect him to do. Usopp sighs in defeat, understanding that he cannot push me around with his lies like he can with Chopper and Luffy. He grabs the paint and starts his artist work.

Eventually, with all the instructions given and painting done, the Fleet leaves, making Bon Clay Cry, waving goodbye to them with a handkerchief. WIth that done, I walk towards Usopp.

"What?" He is annoyed at me it seems. but I grin at him, deciding to make an offer that he cannot refuse.

"I Would like to consult you on some items I wanted to create. I want your help." Usopp immediately turns serious when mentioning items, and he nods, walking towards the Lounge to tinker with stuff.

i walk behind him, with my goal being only one thing-

Grind My Engineer Skill So Much that I Am able to create an Internet. Data science comes later on.
