One Piece System

"How do you know this? How much do you know about me?" Nami asks nervously because she doesn't know how Ken knows everything.

"Do you think I would allow anyone to join our crew and not do background research on that person? Luffy might not care, but I care."

When Ken pointed out about the brand, he used his other hand to hide the tattoo. All this time he hid this tattoo out of fear that others could recognize him and catch him. But it seems like all of that failed in front of Ken.

"If you know so much then why are you here? On this crew? All I see is the Captain idiot? You are very strong. You can even change the weather. Why did you choose this route?" Nami asked angrily. She doesn't expect all her secrets to be revealed in front of Ken. He was still afraid of Arlong because what he did was a traumatic experience since childhood.

Scars that may not heal for a long time.

"You really think our Captain is an idiot? He has more knowledge and experience than he shows. He may be silly but he is my brother. There are other reasons to join his crew but that can be discussed later."

Nami remained silent. All the time he was with this crew, all he felt was happiness and freedom. He was able to sleep soundly for the first time in a long time at sea. He didn't need to look back to look for a traitor.

And Ken is right. Although he declared Luffy an idiot, in his mind he knew that Luffy was not an idiot. He is serious when the situation demands. Only his emotions exploded at the moment he felt vulnerable.

"Arlong was a pirate who came from the Grand Line and he was close friends with one of the Shichibukai, one of the 7 Warlords of the sea." Nami said she was still in fear.

"Arlong was only one of the members of Jinbei's crew. They had fought together once, but when Jinbei joined the system, he had to release Arlong. He doesn't like Jinbei. The pirate group has been disbanded." replied Ken.

"You also know about the Warlord?"

"As I said long before I did my research. Now tell me, you've seen some of our power. Do you think Arlong can fight us?" ask Ken.

"I'm very close to 100 million stomachs. I don't want my village to suffer." Nami said, still insisting.

"He's been in contact with the captain of the naval base. He's gonna use him to take your money and it's never gonna end" Ken said.

Nami remained silent. After a minute he said

"Let me think for tonight. I'll give you an answer tomorrow."

The next day everyone woke up as usual and Luffy went to the restaurant to convince Sanji, but today would not be an ordinary day for Baratie Restaurant. When Gin left, many already frightened chefs thought Kreig would come later. The speculation proved true.

"Please help me. Justjust please. He hasn't eaten anything in the last few days. Justjust please.. We have money. We can pay you." Gin kneeled in pleading.

Krieg himself was half dead and begging. Of course the chefs mocked him because the Krieg Pirates were notorious for their deception and had a very large crew. Now they looked pitiful so of course, the chefs and other patrons had fun after seeing such a large group of pirates kneel down.

But Sanji comes and provides food for Krieg. All the cooks were almost at war with Sanji but he still provided food for Krieg. Customers were horrified by this action and everyone left in the shortest time possible.

Every one. Except the Straw Hat Pirates and two bounty hunters.

Owner Zeff saw all this from upstairs and just shook his head. He and Sanji have been living in hunger and they know very well how torturing it is. He does not stop Sanji but he also feels that Sanji should not be so kind-hearted in this cruel sea.

After the meal, Krieg was back in good shape and he proved exactly as the rumors circulated. He stabs in from behind and declares that he will take over this restaurant and make himself a new crew.

"I'm here for Zeff's Red Foot notebook. It is said that he is the only person who returned unscathed from the Grand Line. I need that Notebook and with it I can travel to the Grand Line... Haha.. " Don Krieg laughed.

Luffy and the others are surprised that Owner Zeff is a legendary pirate who went to the Grand Line. Krieg gave an one-hour ultimatum to make food for the other starving crew.

Of course the chefs didn't have it and they were ready with knives, pitchforks, swords, and every weapon they could get. Only the Straw Hat members enjoyed the show. Usopp shivered at this, but when he saw that his friends were not too affected, he tried hard not to show his fear.

Ken who was enjoying the show turned his head and looked in a certain direction. He can feel it.

That guy is here.

Dracule Mihawk, Hawkeye, one of the Seven Warlords.

"Zoro, do you feel it?" ask Ken.

"Felt? What's.... Uh!!!" Zoro's eyes opened wide as he tried to use his nose to understand what Ken meant. He felt. The person he was waiting for was here.

His destiny is here.
