One Piece: Gambling to The Top

Josh and the others were transferred on a boat while being blindfolded.

Although they couldn't see where they are going, they could at least talk. ​​

"Sir, excuse me." One of them decided to ask.

"Yes." Said the current Mr. 5.

"I know that you are blindfolding us for privacy." He said. "However, since this is Grand Line, isn't it stupid. No one can navigate directions."

"Yes. It's a test to see if there is a stupid person to question orders."

Mister Five, with no mercy, took the blindfold and kicked the guy back to the sea.

Josh lowered his head as he was sitting. What he had seen now was the first lesson he had learnt as an intern.

'Never show your boss how stupid he is. He can turn your internship into a hell.'

Josh remained silent, but, then, he heard someone next to him.

"This is exciting. I'm finding a job." Mikita was saying that.

Josh noticed that and didn't say any word. Although she is hot, he didn't know how to talk to possibly crazy girls.

"Hey, you, why are you here?"

Josh felt her kicking on his foot as she asked.

"Me?" he said.

"Yes." She nodded.

"Money, I guess," Josh answered honestly. That was his short term goal. The long ones are more ambitious, are more secret.

"What about you?" he decided to ask since he wanted to learn more about her character.

"I want to become Miss Chocolate and make my chocolate." She said openly, talking about her dream.

"Goof for you. I'll buy your product, If we made it alive, one day." Said Josh as he thought about some words that wouldn't make the atmosphere turn awkward.

"Kyahahaha. You're cute." She laughed, pushing her smooth thigh against his.

It wasn't intentional, as it seems. But it didn't stop Josh from getting aroused.

"You too." Josh just nodded and lifted his head.

"By the way, what's your name."

"Josh. You?"

"Mikita." She nodded.

"Nice name."

"I know." She chuckled.

Mikita then became silent and the trip went in peace.

-x-X-x-

With the ten people who succeeded in the first selection moving, they reached into one middle-sized island under the lead of Baroque works.

The blindfold was taken off them, and they were standing in line.

Mister Five wasn't here. Instead, there was someone else. A man, a bulky one, wearing military clothes, was standing and talking, with his hands behind his back.

"Welcome. Now, you are official members of our organisation. Through the missions and contributions, you can rise in the ranks. Please, take to mind that you are going to risk your lives. Anything like betrayal would be punished by death. You are no agents, just followers. Do as you are told, and you will learn."

The man started explaining their roles and their life from now on.

They are going to be officers in Baroque Works.

They'll take their orders from high ranks who are called agents. They are known by their numbers or aliases name.

Josh nodded. Mikita seemed to be excited, while others were cautious as they looked behind the muscled man.

There were guys and girls running around.

"These ones are trainees, not selected by fighting."

As it seems, they aren't official members. Josh stared at them, and, surprisingly, he saw a person he hadn't expected to see here.

There was a beautiful curvy woman running, her blue hair that was tied in horsetail floating. Her chest was average size, and she was about 169 cm tall.

Even though it's a real-life version, she still looked like an Instagram curvy model.

Her skin was quite pale. Her big brown eyes didn't show any hit of being tired as she kept running forward. She was keeping her breath stable as her blue floating hair was dancing.

'Vivi.'

Princess Vivi is training here to join the Baroque Works.

She, as it seems, is here to spy and find the relationship between the organisation the rebel that is aiming to destroy her country.

Of course, her identity is secret, and the Baroque Works don't know about it yet.

However, she seems to be barely starting.

Somehow, this made Josh know how far he is from canon.

Vivi, who was running, suddenly noticed the guy who was looking at her.

It wasn't unusual.

As a beautiful princess with flawless skin, she has many eyes on her.

However, the man who was staring at her seemed to give her a familiar look, like he knows from somewhere.

Quickly, she turned her face, breaking eye contact, fearing that he may recognise her somewhere.

"Focus. stop staring."

Josh suddenly felt pain in his ribs. Turning, he saw Mikita patting her blonde hair. He was surprised, she was quite strong physically.

"Whatever." He said as continued hearing the rest.

As it seems now, they would stay in this place, taking direct orders.

They can accomplish missions. If they do a good job, they may be promoted to be real agents.

Now, their job is to work with the others to form a group that hunt pirates.

-x-X-x-

'Finally, a real gym, and real food.'

Since there were no pirate ships passing by this island now, Josh and the others were free to do what they like in their free time, until there is a mission for them.

He went to near dumbbells, which were quite big, and started working out with them. Each weighed around 200 kilos. And they were heavy to lift, each with one arm.

Currently, he was in the gym of this division of Baroque Works.

In front of him, there was real training equipment. Big dumbbells and all other weighs. It was way better than the water boxes he used to train.

Not to mention, there is real notorious meat here.

After working out for a half-hour, Josh was looking for a towel, as sweat covered his forehead.

Josh thought of using this time, to probably, develop some techniques. After all, this body of his is way stronger than his previous one. He should at least try to recreate Shave from the show.

"Want a one."

He looked around, Mikita was there, extending a towel toward him.

Although she was portrayed as a little crazy girl when it comes to fighting, she looked normal right now. A stunning normal girl.

Mikita was wearing two pieces of cloth, gym clothes, which showed a part of her delicate body. Talking to her was harder than the girl he had seen in the test.

"Thanks, chocolate." Since her dream to be Miss Chocolate, Josh said.

Josh took the towel and rubbed his forehead.

"Funny name, Berry." She chuckled.

"Berry?" Josh lifted his head and stared at her.

"Well, you called me Chocolate after hearing that I want to be Ms Chocolate. So, I called you Berry, since you want Berries." Mikita raised her eyebrows and crossed her arms.

Josh just chuckled. "I said I need money, not I want to be Mr Money."

"Hahaha. I know. Relax. I'm just teasing you because you are young and funny." Mikita slapped his back as she said that.

Somehow, that hurt, but he smiled as if it were nothing, but amusement.

"Funny?"

"You know. Yesterday, when you choked her with a banana. It was the funniest thing I have ever seen."

Josh raised an eyebrow. It seems she is interested in him.

"Thanks then." He said as he sat down next to another weights equipment.

"So, are you training with these?" She said, looking down at the gym equipment.

"Well, I handle what I can handle," Josh said.

"Can you handle a woman like me?" She said, teasingly.

Though, it was a double-edged question.

"Can you handle a man like me?" Josh wished that he could bit his tongue.

From all the women he could say that to, and he chose the one who can manipulate her weight.

"You're pretty confident, I like that."

She let her face near to his. Josh paused for a brief, looking at the stunning facial features, from the green eyes to flawless skin, and full lips, Josh was quite taken to have a kiss.

'Damn you, Oda. Did you have to do fan service with each girl that appears in the show?'

Josh thought as he made a gentle smile, showing that he is not afraid of her devil fruit, which was wrong since it can squash him like the 4 meters tall man he had seen.

"Hm…" Mikita, seeing that he wasn't taking himself back, put a finger on his lip. Josh looked at that finger, before her eyes. The situation was arousing him a bit.

"If you can handle a ton then, I will see. Now, continue the workout. There is more for you to cross" She said in a very calm seductive tone.

"How about we bet on that. Two tons."

"Make it four, big boy."

Her finger danced from his lip to his chest. When he looked at her finger, she flicked it up on his nose, and then laughed slightly.

She then stood up when Josh held his nose. Mikita gave him her back, letting him see her ass. It was big, and the hourglass shape made sure that it was noticeable.

Josh just stared in appreciation.

"It was fun talking with you." She stretched herself and turned, saying. "I heard that there is a mission soon for us, next week. I thought you may want to prepare yourself. We may be on the same boat. And I don't want someone to hold me back. So, don't pretend to be dead."

"Sure, I may be able to handle you after that," Josh said. As he noticed that she isn't reserved when it comes to speaking, he felt she was quite open to flirting.

"Kyahahaha. We will see." Laughing, she picked up her clothes and went to hit the bath.

Josh lied down and stayed here, before going to the bath — the males'.

When he turned the water, he opened the system.

Since there is a mission for him, probably, the next week, he may use now to see his reward from the previous mission.
