OP GTTT: Chapter 53
🕑 Added 2021-08-24 23:34:19 +0000 UTCMoving out of the casino after kicking all of the guests inside out, Josh was holding a huge bag of money... which didn't really contain money in it, since the money was stored in his system.
Currently, he was moving to the seaport.
Robin, Mikita, Marianne were with him.
Looking back at the casino, Josh felt it was a pity that he doesn’t even have time to sell it and turn it into money.
had his investment lasted any longer, he would have collected at least a couple of billion Berries in a year.
Currently, Josh, although he has 400 million berries with him, he has 300 million already turned into the system. The other hundred million is saved for the expenses.
That should change once they meet Gem and the others. Josh got into the ship, which happened to be a mid-sized commercial ship, with many internal poses he had bought and normal internal logs (special compasses).
Josh is now going to the sea to be free. However, he didn’t intend to lift the pirate flag, since it would draw unwanted attention.
On their way to the ship, Josh suddenly stopped as he extended his hand toward his group.
“Josh, what’s going on,” Marianne asked, only for Josh to grab her from her collar and lift her up. The moment he did, a silhouette passed by his spot.
“Never thought you are this dirty.”
Josh said, moving his eyes around.
Josh's speed, compared to his strength, is more. Because of the agility pills he had gotten in the past, he is faster than the agents and could clearly see their moves. The same can’t be said for the others. Robin crossed her arms and looked around in worry.
In front of them, four figures flashed.
Tall guy, tall woman, which happened to be blondies whom Josh met. Next to them, there were a short blue-haired man and a short raven-haired woman.
The tall blond girl took a step forward, two daggers in her hand.
“We meet again, Agent 7. For the crimes you have committed under Crocodile, you have the choice of death or being arrested. Resisting would cause death.” She said with a very cold smirk.
Making eye contact with her for three seconds, Josh extended his hand in the air toward her.
Everyone thought that he was asking for the people to stop. However, from thin air, a black katana appeared.
“Stay behind me. Cp 11 aren’t Cp 10 for a reason.”
he believed that he should be enough to deal with them, depending on the results of his training and the boosts he got in the last two months.
If Josh had fought Baroque Works as he is now, he would have defeated them way easier.
Josh squatted down, his hand on the grip of the sword as he stared forward.
“You dare, commoner.” One of the agents, who was a short man, said as he squatted down and vanished in thin air, appearing behind Josh.
Josh frowned. “Who taught you to say your first words."
The short man then declared. “Finger Gun,” as he stabbed with his finger toward Josh’s back.
Josh, however, turned into an afterimage, making the agent feel confused as a voice came behind him.
“Appearing behind is a very old trick. Also, don't declare the name of your attack until you're done. Keep this lesson to your next life."
Before the agent could reply, he noticed a cold blade, covered in red, getting out of his chest.
Josh pulled his black sword back as he kicked the short man down.
Things happened too fast, and the agents were staring at Josh.
“You have one of our six superhuman techniques. You have a very high mastery over it to use it so smoothly. Who are you?” the 3 meters tall agent asked Josh, half closing his eyes.
Only agents in very high ranks can move this fast.
Josh, however, could move in a less linear way. It seemed that he can easily walk while performing their Shave technique.
“Marianne, distraction.” As Josh’s words came out, Marianne quickly took her brush and drew a pattern on the ground, grabbing the attention of the short girl.
Josh squatted down. Since he is a swords master now, he could make some compressed air blades. Waving his sword, a compressed air arc flew toward the distracted little woman, only for the tall woman to appear in front of the short woman and squat down, declaring. “Iron Mass.”
The air blade reflected on her body and hit a near building, cutting a piece out of it.
Josh realised that he needs to get close to cut her down. After all, with his swordsmanship mastery now, he can make a cut in steel.
“Robina.” Declaring that name, the owner understood her role.
From the ground, many arms appeared and tried to hold the legs of the agents.
The 3 meters tall man jumped up and kicked the air below him, making himself fly.
Robin didn’t seem to be able to hold the agent who was using Iron Mass, yet she slowed her.
Quickly, Josh moved in super speed and appeared behind the tall girl, lying. “Too bad you are hot. But nothing personal.”
And then, he drew his sword out of his sheath, waving in a blinding speed, before he jumped back, flipping.
Once he landed on the ground, the tall woman had a long slash on her back and fell to the ground.
“Nico Robin. You are alive, yet you changed your look.”
The agent, who was flying in the air by walking on it, said as he observed Robin, unaffected by his comrade's death.
Adjusting his position, the agent aimed with his head toward Robin and kicked the air behind him, pushing himself to fly toward her.
Ignoring the short woman, Josh instantly rushed to save Robin and waved his sword in the air, sending air arc.
The man, even though he couldn’t use Iron Mass in the air, flipped and kicked toward Josh, sending a sharp pressed air blade.
An explosion happened once the two sharp air arcs met. A strong wind blew. Josh quickly dashed with his footwork and waved his sword, making a cut appear on the man’s chest.
Josh stopped and turned, looking at the man who could ignore the injury, and was ready to dash again.
Appearing in front of him, Josh obviously had the advantage of speed.
As Josh waved his sword, the man could dodge the slash
Josh, clenching his fist tightly around the sword’s grip, waved again and again, yet the agent could easily dodge, even when the slash came from a blind spot.
“It’s useless. Kami-E allows my muscles to go limp. Seems you dropped out before learning about all of our secret techniques.” The blonde man was talking coldly.
“Robin,” Josh called as he flipped on the ground, holding a handful of sand as he threw it at the agent’s face.
The agent quickly parried the sand with his hand.
Robin nodded.
Using that as a distraction, she made arms appear on the man’s body and wrapped him.
Although she wasn’t stronger than him, many arms and their position can make a huge distraction.
The agent found that his movement was restricted. Before he could manage to use his superior raw strength, Josh put the sword back to the sheath and threw the katana high.
Josh jumped above the agent, placing his hands on the agent’s head.
Spinning in the air, Josh twisted the man’s head, breaking his neck on the process, which ended up the agent’s life.
Josh lifted his hand and held his Katana as it fell on his hand.
Josh turned to look at the last agent. Mikita seemed to had to deal with her, as she placed a very heavy kick to the short woman’s face, which made her face blew up from the strength.
Mikita, who was only 19 years old, was panting and holding her urge to vomit.
Although the short agent used Iron Mass, Mikita gave her a 15 tons heavy punch on the face, which blew her head up. Mikita knows Kung Fu, which made her kicks deadly now.
“We dealt with them now,” Josh said as he pointed to the ship. “Get in, now.”
Although the sight was ugly for him, Josh could manage to hold himself and get inside of the ship.
In the past, even when facing pirates, he could hold himself from killing.
Yet this time, he did it with cold blood.
The situation he was in, and the weight of being a leader, forced him.
Josh must say that he is surprised by himself, and feels no regret. After all, he did what he has to do in order to win.
“Joshy, if they sent agents after us. How about the others…” Mikita said as the ship started moving.
Robin didn’t move her head, as she seemed to expect that.
On the other hand, Marianne asked curiously. “Gem and the others!”
Quickly holding the DenDenMushi, Josh called Gem.
Josh was so worried.
His money is with them.
After calling for ten times, Josh lost hope as they didn't pick up on his call.
“XXXX."
Ater cursing, Josh sat down on his butt and looked around. “Who knows how to sail.”
Josh started taking some deep breaths. As the two managers of the other casino aren’t picking up, it means that they are arrested, or they escaped with the money -- 300 million.
Whether it is the first case or the second, it would be useless to go after them to get his money back.
“I know. But, What direction we should take? You are the captain now.” Robin answered, telling Josh it’s his decision.
“Yes, you are the man of the ship.” Marianne sat down next to Josh and joined her legs together.
"Oh... the way they are calling you. It's killing me. Just sail to a nice place." Mikita rolled her eyes at Robin and Marianne.
Josh, who was thinking about his situation, lifted his head. Where should he go. He didn't know. it's best for him to find someplace to buy supplies and then only he can think what to do next.
"Just sail to any place with a good market. I'll be thinking for meanwhile." Josh lied on the deck.
