One Piece: Gambling to The Top

After getting a call about cooperation from Mister 1, Josh and Mikita took their boat, which was quite big, and they moved to the meeting island.

One would always wonder how can the Baroque Works members move easily within the Grand Line, which is a place where it's so easy to lose your way. ​​

It wasn't a problem.

Josh has many Eternal Poses, which would always guide to one island, and move to all of the bases in this part.

Also, there are some maps, which merchants, marines, and some smart pirates, uses.

Josh, soon arrived at a small island, which happened to be next to one of the Baroque Works' islands.

Josh, who is now Mr. 7, walked around with his partner, Ms Valentine, who was having her umbrella open to avoid the sun rays.

They reached soon a cafe shop, which was occupied completely.

"You have arrived."

Josh heard the voice.

When he turned, he saw the previous Mister 5, who had tested him.

He had his hair in the pattern of 3.

"Let me guess, you are Mr. 3 now."

Josh said, seeing the man having a different hairstyle with another number.

Mr.3 nodded. "Yes, Mister Seven."

"And who is this little girl."

Josh turned to see the smallest women he had ever seen — in this world.

She was around 145 cm tall, had reddish-brown hair, which was tied in pigtails braids above her Head

"I'm not a little girl... I'm an adult, you're a little man for someone from Grand Line…" She said, pointing a brush toward Josh, half closing his eyes.

"Easy girl. I'm taller than your partner" Josh raised both his hands and looked down to the girl who was a head shorter than him.

He was holding his urge to chuckle.

Mikita shot the little girl a glare and showed all of her teeth with one vicious smile.

It could scare the little woman a bit.

"Ms Golden-week, please, don't act aggressively. We are within the same organisation. Mr.7, sit down and order something until Mr. 1 arrive."

Josh sat down, grabbed a coffee, and started sipping.

Ms Golden-week extended her tongue toward him, but seeing that he was ignoring her, she just sighed and kept silent.

She took a piece of paper and started drawing with her brush.

Time passed, Mr. 3 opened a chat with Josh.

"You promoted quickly. You are using your head, as it seems." Said Mr 3.

"You too." Josh looked at him.

"I think Boss knows that brain is more than muscle," replied Mr. 3. He had been there when Josh had been tested. Josh had an average strength, and barely a fighting experience. However, he managed to use his head and emerged as a winner in the end.

Mikita, on the other hand, had been strong from the start thanks to her Devil Fruit, so it wasn't amazing that she promoted quickly.

"He does, for sure," Josh commented and then took a sip from the coffee.

The door of the cafe shop was opened.

Turning, Josh saw two people.

One of them was a tanned man with a shaved head.

He had a bulky muscled body and he was tall, around 210 cm tall. His muscles were apparent through the opened black shirt he was wearing, other than that, he was having lousy sweat pants, and traditional shoes.

Josh knew him immediately. Mr. 1.

Besides him was also a tall woman. She was round 187 cm without heels. Her body was hourglass shape, and her chest was big. Her waist was slim as well, and her walking way seemed to be sexy, as it focuses on showing her curves.

The clothes had a BDSM theme, black pants and black bras, matching her curly black hair and green eyes.

'Is this like, Manga version.' Josh thought about a different detail.

This woman should have blue hair in the Anime.

Yet here, her hair was black.

Still, she was tall and has huge boobs.

It was easy to say that it wasn't an Anime version, since they change hair colours. Also, even if her waist was thin, it was in logical size here.

"Ara Ara, I see that everyone is here. Don't blame us for being late."

She gave a teasing wink as she took a seat and sat.

Mr.1 sat down as well.

"So, when are we going to move." Said Mister Three.

Mr One looked at him. He took a deep breath, before saying. "Listen, to make myself clear, first, I don't really need your help."

"We know your strength, but you still asked for our help." Mr Three replied, showing that Mr One can't be as bossy.

"You are right. I will deal with the captain while my partner with the Vice. You can make a strategy, and the others would fight. It would let us rest sooner. I want to finish the annoying mission as soon as possible."

Josh, who was sitting at the sides, relaxed his lips and raised his eyebrows.

"Ara~ Ara~. Aren't you the boy who was Mr.9 almost a month ago?" Doublefinger said as Josh caught her attention with his mocking expression toward Mr.1.

"Mm… I got lucky. Thanks for giving me that mission, though." Josh said.

"Work hard little boy. Who knows if you can get better chances in the future." She said as she winked, catching Josh's eyes to her thick lips.

"He isn't little." Mikita glared at Doublefinger. But as the latter put her hand on her face and glared back, Mikita turned her face.

"Mind telling me where you find him big?" Doublefinger leaned forward until her face was closer to Mikita.

"Ahem." Josh faked a cough. "We have a mission, remember."

He and the other agents stood up and left, followed by their female partners.

-x-X-x-

"Around you."

Josh heard Mikita's warning, as she was flying in the sky with her umbrella.

Josh's body turned into a blur, before hr appeared behind the pirate, squatting, and giving him an inside kick that sent him flying away. Josh then used his agility to flip and punch another guy flying.

Although they were bigger and had thicker muscles, Josh could fight easily. All this is thanks to Mister 3 strategy. He had made his partner, Ms Goldenweek uses her art to make the pirates feel low. As it seems, Goldenweek paints are like hypnosis, they can make others affected by them, and pirates were feeling low esteem now.

Meanwhile, a big bunch of them was covered in hard wax, barely able to move. Josh, with his speed and strength now, had a good time punching even those who didn't get caught by the wax.

On the other hand, he wasn't the most eye-catching one.

If one looked around, Ms Double Finger was having an easier time.

She was just walking loosely after stabbing the vice-captain to death. When a bunch of pirates approached her, many spikes grew out of her body, which was sharp enough to pierce rocks easily, let alone some pirates with flesh and bones.

Heck, they died with ease.

She then continued walking, looking for survivors.

'How could Nami win against her in the first place.' Josh thought as he looked at Double Finger, and her huge ass swaying for a brief.

She surely deserves the title of the second strongest woman in Baroque Work, though she can defeat the first one easily.

"Josh, if you want to look at something, look here, my ass is better from this angle."

Josh just smirked when he heard Mikita, lifting his head and seeing her panties through her yellow dress. She just smiled back. "Don't worry, I prefer yours."

"Kyahahaha." Mikita flew and fell on someone, crushing their bones with ease.

Josh, since he finished fighting, swept a sweat drop from his forehead and looked at Mr One, who was crossing his arms and looking at the pirates' boss, waiting for him to make a move.

Sneering, the pirate captain dashed toward Mr. 1, his fingers were made of steel, sharp one.

Mr. 1 opened his eyes, and then, he extended his hands forward. The captain waved his claws, which just produced a metal clash sound upon meeting with Mr. 1 body.

As the pirate showed his shock, Mr One's hands, fingers to be more exact, turned into silver blades.

"Useless. Mr. 1 body, any part, can turn into a blade. He has eaten Dice Dice. Which means, the sound of slicing." Ms Double Finger explained.

By the time her words ended, Mr One waved his hand, and deep wounds appeared on the chest of the captain, before he fell on his feet, looking at Mr One with wide-opened eyes.

"cool." Josh crossed his arms.

"By the way," Mr. 3 came to the scene.

"Yes,"

"You grew up strong too fast."

"Depending on the speed you consider regular."

"Mr 3. Don't you know that young boys grow faster? Isn't that right, Mr.7- Chan." Doublefinger entered the chat since she had time for that.

"I think girls grow faster." Josh, upon hearing her remark, turned his head and lifted his head to meet her eyes. "Maybe not..." He then felt something wrong and was about to turn his head again.

"Don't look at me." Ms Goldenweek was looking at the ground.

"Hahaha…" Doublefinger came and patted Golden week on her head, teasing her for being short.

"Kyahaha… someone is shy." Mikita also couldn't help but laugh.

Josh just shrugged his shoulders when Goldenweek glanced at him.

Soon, they started collecting those who have bounty from the ground.

Meanwhile, Josh had a sore feeling when he saw Mr. 1 lifting boxes full of gold, as he was making his way to the ship. Such amount. Ah… if he only had known about this group before the Baroque Works do, he would have stolen the gold. But it doesn't worth trying to get it now, since Mr One is loyal to Crocodile, and Josh doesn't think that he strong enough to fight him, yet.

This made Josh think that he needs more time, before going for the final mission. As they were about to depart after the mission, Mr. 3 suggested.

"By the way, how about a small drink, before departing for our bases."

"Sounds cool for me," Josh said.

"Mmm… I like drinking. Only vodka, though," Mikita approved.

"Do whatever you like." Mr. 1 crossed his arms.

"No one tells me I shouldn't drink." Goldenweek looked at Josh, who was ignoring her.

"Fine, I like drinking, but not too much. Boss can get angry." Ms Doublefinger said, stretching her arms and moaning as she saw refreshed after waking up, not as she had just killed some guys and all.
