One Piece: Gambling to The Top

The submarine of Josh was moving down the sea, making its way. Josh had gained himself enough time to move and think. Now, after killing Akainu, he bet that he had pissed off the whole navy and the World Government. Not to mention that he had killed Doflamingo.

A smirk was drawn on his face as he put a leg above another, turning his head to stare at the sea. Few giant sea fishes and monsters were passing by his submarine. It was a beautiful sight.

'Now I think about it, what had been my goal at the beginning.' Josh was thinking about where he wanted to lead his life from this point. 'Yes, gain as much as power as I can and live a king's life… I guess I have enough power and money to start… Also, I'm quite curious about my bounty.'

"Joshy…. Drink this."

"Lemon drink."

Josh stared at the cup that Mikita handed. He took a sip and flinched gently.

Mikita took a seat on his lap and asked. "So, what we'll be doing?"

"Can't you figure out?" Josh raised his eyebrow.

Mikita smiled. "Obviously, fuck up those bastards of the World Government."

"Yeah, yeah." Josh let a sigh. "Since you are all-powerful now. Wanna do something that really pisses the world government."

"What shall that be?" Mikita looked at Josh and saw his lips start twitching. Josh's smile can be tricky. Sometimes, it can mean teasing, some times it's just to provoke someone. Josh's genuine smile is when his lips twitch because he is trying to hold himself.

"Fucking up the economy of the whole world," Josh said. With powerful girls with powerful awakened Devil Fruits, imagine what may happen if they attacked all of the banks, and stripped them off the money. Josh would surely gain big.

Robin's ears twitched as she walked in. "I'm interested. So, how are we going to start."

"Of course, you girls shall attack a bank each. Mikita, you can lift everything using your fruit, right. Same for you…" Josh leaned backwards and opened his hand.

"Don't tell me that you are planning to sit around and let us do all of the work." Robin couched and said.

"To be honest with you. I'm quite busy." Josh said. "As you can see, I have gained a unique physical body, and I need to find some Devil Fruit that suits me. Also, some users for these Devil Fruits."

Josh got two Devil Fruits in his hand. One of them belonged to Akainu. The other one was a creation from the system. It turns the eater into a Sea King. By the way, Josh can create another Devil Fruit if he wanted.

It would surely help him if he ever wanted to make a fruit that suits him.

However, think about it. Josh already has very good fruit. He doesn't need to find another good fruit. Instead, he needs to find something that supports him. Some Devil Fruit that increases his abilities. Something unique.

If you are a ninja, you don't aim for a great shield.

"We can ask Hancock," Mikita said. "Or you know. Just ask Vivi or what was that other Blondie's name…"

"Stussy."

"You remember her very well." Mikita filled her cheeks with air. Josh just grabbed her cheek and smiled.

"Daddy. What are we going to do now." Marianne asked as she walked by.

"For now, we'll be heading to Amazon Lily," Josh said. "After that, I'll contact my friend, get ourselves enough boost. You attack the banks, and then, we shall move to the New World."

"New World?" Mikita and a few other girls seemed to be clueless.

Hancock turned her head and said. "It's the place where only the strongest pirates live. It's under the control of the 4 Yonkos, and everyone there is strong, super strong."

"And why would you go to such a place," Mikita said.

"I'll have my own land, have our place, and live happily there. The World Government wouldn't bother us anymore."

Josh stretched his arms up and stood up, walking by Kalifa. "Make me some tea." He handed her the lemon cup.

Kalifa nodded slightly and took the cup, before walking away.

Josh stared across the window and asked. "How long will it take us to reach Amazon Lily."

"About 4 hours." Melissa, who was driving, said.

Josh shook his head, sat down, and closed his eyes.

Better use this time to see the future and pick up the items he needed.

Josh decided that this time, he will focus on specific legend rank items.

First, he needed to get the Golden Orbs, the item that had him resurrected. Same for the talisman that can teleport him — he doubted he would get it since he barely sees the future beyond the range of 600-700 Draw Points. This time he will go beyond that. Other than that, Josh decided to take everything that increase his speed, power, Haki, and a few items for the girls. After all, he has 18.000 Draw Points.

Wondering how much it will take to get another ?????? Rank item, Josh decided to see the future. 18.000 points isn't enough, it seems.

Josh started seeing the future. Ever since his battle with the admirals, his Observation Haki got way stronger.

3 times stronger.

Josh wondered what it would be like if there was some Devil Fruit that only increases speed, power, and other things. Just the concept of increasing…

'More More fruit, I see.'

Josh put the idea aside, and saw the future, again and again, aiming for Golden Orbs.

After finishing, Josh decided to ask Robin for information about the prisoners that escaped Impel Down.

They have to pay the price for their freedom, after all.
