One Piece: Gambling to The Top

Chapter 202 - 202



Chapter 202 – 202

Josh got near to the silver rock, which was written in some ancient language. It didn't matter what was in. The Poneglyph is expensive. The World Government and many rich pirates and barons would pay a lot of money to have it. Josh thought about a way to satisfy everyone. 

After he had defeated Akainu and opened one of the mystery boxes, he had won an interesting item. 

Josh had always thought about what use it has. 

But now, he could think of few. 

[Creation paper (Legend)]

(Turn anything drawn into reality (Can't include living being)]

How about he draw the Poneglyph, make a few copies, and sell them to anyone who is interested. 

"Josh-San, you look excited to see it." Shirahoshi was curious as she spans and looked at Josh's face. "What's so special about it?" 

Josh turned to the giant innocent pretty princess. He smiled and said. "I've got a girl who loves reading these."

"You have a girl? That's…" Shirahoshi said. Her tone changed all of the sudden and her breathing rate increased. 

Josh took a deep breath and said. "I have, lemme count. 7 girls… I hope I didn't forget anyone." 

"A harem…That's… That's great." Shirahoshi didn't know what to say and forced a smile. She just met this nice human, who was talking about the outsides. But somehow, hearing about other girls annoyed her. Shirahoshi doesn't know much about relationships. But like a child, she will be bothered if the popular kid you want to play with is playing with other kids. 

"Why are you crying?" Josh asked, but the princess kept smiling. 

"Because I am happy for you," Shirahoshi said. She turned to her father and said. "I want to swim around." 

"Sure." The king turned to Whitebeard and rubbed his hands together, saying. "Sorry for making you go through all of those troubles, and thank you for protecting my land. And you, thank you for giving my daughter the freedom back." 

"Nothing worth mentioning," Josh said, turning to the Poneglyph, ignoring the gazes at him. "Can you send this to my room? Robin will love to play with it." 

"You surely are not a greedy man." Neptune smiled. "For someone called Gambler, I thought you would use this to gamble and make money." 

Hearing the words that were describing him, Josh wondered if someone else was standing next to him. 

"Josh," Shirahoshi called him. 

Josh lifted his head and stared at her face as her pink cheeks were slowly turning red. 

She bowed down and said. "Thank you!"

The taste of the humiliation was stronger to Hody Jones than the salty taste of the water. The shark fishman was with a few of his followers who hate the human race and despise them. 

"We must make him pay." Said a Fishman near Jones. 

"That bastard," Jones growled. "He said he'll give me a chance if I can get back with a stronger army. I'll make him eat his words with regret." He clenched his fists. Not only did the lowly creature look down at him, but he dared to treat him as an object to avoid helping his girlfriend to choose clothes. 

"Sir, are you sure. He's the Gambler. He alone had defeated the Buster Call." 

"Tsk. Don't believe everything the media says." Jones replied. "They say humans are better, they dare to enslave us, yet they can't breathe underwater, and we are born 10 times stronger. " 

The fishmen around him clenched their fists. They were swimming to the hideout of one of the famous scums of fishmen island. 

A few minutes later, they arrived at the hideout, meeting another group of pirates. 

On their lead, there was a fishman covered in a bubble and moving his legs to swim. It's funny that a fishman can't swim because he is a Devil Fruit user. 

"Hody Jones. You bastard. What are you doing here." Called the Fishman. He was wearing classy clothes, with a hat on the top of his head. 

"Vander," Jones smirked, showing his shark teeth. 

Vander was a very sly pirate. Despite being locked in a bubble, this fishman is so dangerous. His ability, Mark Mark, allows him to lock anyone with a touch from one of his hands. Once the target is locked, they can't escape any projectile Vander send. Too bad that one of his hands are locked on the princess Vander wants to marry. But his other hand is still available. 

"What's with this smile. You look troubled." Vander chuckled. 

"Ah… You know, some troubled lowly creature…" Jones then proceeded to tell Vander about what happened when Josh came. 

Jones had been in the middle of his plan to provoke a fight between Josh and the Whitebeard crew while Jones sneak to the palace and steal the treasure that makes him stronger. And to guarantee that, they had planned to make Josh do damage, which will bring the royal guards, and at the end, Whitebeard will come down, and a fight will be provoked. 

Alas, one of his crew, the busty blond, hadn't even given the chance for them to cause public damage, and all of his men ended up on the ground, like fried fishes. 

"Hahahah!" Vander laughed so hard. "Damn, you are thinking so hard. Why don't you just convince Neptune of giving me his daughter, and we'll get into the palace." 

"Geez." Jones shook his head and let a sigh. "You still didn't lose hope. You better start using your other hand instead of wasting it on the princess." 

"Hey," Vander walked to the corner and lifted a giant axe. "Shirahoshi is the prettiest woman. And marrying her would make me fulfil my ancestors' dream." 

Vander looked at the surface of the water, and he yelled. "Shirahoshi! Accept my gift." 

He threw the axe high. Usually, the axe would spin and go to the princess. Alas, it was pulled down. Vander cocked his eyebrows. "Hold on." He was so confused that he didn't understand what was happening. The axe fell next to him, and the bubble popped out. 

Numbness took over his body, and he fell on his body. 

"Did you choose the wrong target?" Jones walked and stood over Vander. 

Vander moved his eyes, unable to move his body. "Impossible, Shirahoshi! Neptune, You will pay the price." 

Jones smirked and extended his hand. "You can throw anything at any target, right." 

"Yes." 

Jones let his mouth closer to his ear and whispered. "Make them pay for taking your Waifu from you." 

"No! Let's demand my Waifu back," Vander said. "If they don't, I'll destroy their island." 

"You should have done that a long time ago." 

"I… I thought." Vander had few tears. "I thought that she would appreciate my gifts, my love, and eventually, I thought she will give her heart to me." 

Jones was almost disgusted. "You know, that makes you creep, not a lover." 

"But if you are handsome, or a girl, doing that will not make you a creep." 

"Are you handsome?" Jones asked. 

"Fuck. I'm a creep." Vander said coldly. "I think I should've taken the easier way years ago."
