Traveling through the universe, starting with obtaining the Marvel Ten Rings

"Oh no, the old man is not on the boat."

After the Golden Merry set sail, Luffy discovered that Rosen was not on the ship.

"Don't worry, the old man will be fine." Nami has the greatest confidence in Rosen.

And just now when she was running away, she saw Rosen appear and block the smoking man who was chasing them, and she saw Rosen knock the smoking man down with one punch.

So she didn't need to worry about Rosen's safety at all.

But in the next few days, Rosen did not return to the ship.

At this time, even Nami began to worry about Rosen.

It was not until the seventh day that a latest wanted list landed on the Golden Merry.

Luffy and Zoro are on the list, with 3000 million and 1500 million respectively.

But what really shocked them was that Rosen was also wanted, and the reward on his head was 300 million Baileys.

This number was hard for Luffy and Zoro to believe.

"Pirate: White-haired Ghost, bounty of 300 million berries, pirate group: unknown."

"Oh my... why do I have so much less than the old man?"

"Isn't the old man going on a killing spree in Rogue Town?"

"Impossible. The old man is only good at illusion. He is not capable of killing people."

"Why don't I have a bounty?" Sanji asked a soul-searching question. He felt that Rosen already had 300 million Baileys, so he should start with at least 1 billion.

However, with the news about Rosen, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"Don't worry, the old man may not be able to find the Golden Merry, so he hasn't returned to the ship yet. Next time we do something big, the old man will know where we are."

……

Rosen holds his own bounty.

It seemed that Borsalino had some reservations about the Navy.

The bounty on this item was only 300 million Baileys, which was obviously inconsistent with the strength he had shown that day.

So it must be that Borsalino had not told the truth to the Navy.

Did he think that he had something to do with Vegapunk?

So he deliberately concealed his ability for me?

He once participated in Vegapunk's experiments, and it is possible that he actually regarded himself as Vegapunk's test subject.

After all, the abilities he demonstrated were extremely counterintuitive, so it was no surprise that he was used as Vegapunk's test subject.

"That's amazing! The first bounty is 300 million Baileys." Long glanced at the bounty with a hint of ridicule on his face.

"It's lower than I expected. I thought it would be at least a billion Baileys."

"I can only train you for another month. I need to go back to the Revolutionary Army headquarters."

"Then hurry up."

In fact, Rosen does not have to learn all the techniques of Conqueror's Haki and Armament Haki.

As long as you understand the growth space and development direction of Conqueror's Haki and Armament Haki, it will be enough.

Of course, having such a ready-made teacher, Rosen didn't mind communicating more with him.

"I'm curious, why you are so powerful, but you don't know how to be domineering."

"It's because I'm too powerful that Haki is not an absolutely necessary skill."

Long thought about it for a moment and immediately understood what Rosen meant.

"Then why do you want to learn Haki?"

"Because I found that Haki can increase my upper limit."

A month later, Rosen was able to freely control the release and retraction of the three-color domineering power.

Among them, the armament color domineering can already be released in a flowing manner.

The so-called flow release means spreading to things outside the body, such as swords or the ground.

The Conqueror's Haki is currently limited to release, and its strength is not very high, just enough to scare ordinary people.

It’s his Observation Haki, perhaps because of Rosen’s abnormally high mental power, the coverage of Rosen’s Observation Haki can even rival Enel’s mind network.

I don't know where the Golden Merry is now.

We probably haven't reached the Kingdom of Alabasta yet.

Now they are either in Little Garden Island or in the Drum Kingdom.

Rosen planned to go to the Kingdom of Alabasta and wait for them.

At least compared to the Little Garden and the Drum Kingdom, the Alabasta Kingdom is safer.

The Kingdom of Alabasta is one of the member states of the World Government. It has considerable economic strength, land area, and a very large population.

After all, in the Alabasta incident, the number of rebels and the king's army involved reached one million. Even if only one-tenth of the country's population participated, it was still a very large population.

The Kingdom of Alabasta has been experiencing drought all year round, which has led to rebellion in recent years.

However, the conditions and economy in coastal areas are still good.

Lawson came to the port city of Rapeseed Flower, intending to wait for the arrival of the Straw Hat Pirates here.

But on the next day, Rosen discovered that he was being monitored.

While Rosen was still wondering who was spying on him, the other party revealed his identity.

A man and a woman came up to Rosen. The man had bronze skin and a sturdy build. He wore a loose windbreaker that revealed his muscular chest and had a solemn and murderous aura.

The woman had big wavy blue hair, wore a sexy suspender dress, and had fiery red lips. She twisted her waist when she walked, and stood still with her hands on her hips like a model.

Rosen recognized them, Mr.1 Daz Bonis and his partner Pola from Baroque Studio.

Baroque Studios operates in teams of two.

The fact that Crocodile sent the duo of Daz and Pola, whose status was second only to him and Vice President Nico Robin, was enough to show his caution towards Rosen.

"White-haired ghost, come with us." Daz's tone was unquestionable, as if he was giving an order to Rosen.

"Sorry, I don't go with strangers. After all, I don't want to be kidnapped."

Rosen did not take the initiative to contact Baroque Studio because the Alabasta incident was a big test for the Straw Hat Pirates.

"That's not up to you." Daz's eyes were cold, as if he was looking at a dead person.

"Go away and don't disturb my good mood."

A blade suddenly extended from the side of Daz's arm and slashed towards Rosen.

Rosen took a step back slightly, and the building around him was cut in half.

At this moment they were in a bustling market, and Daz acted so recklessly, obviously not taking the laws here seriously.

In other words, the current Baroque Studio is the law of the Kingdom of Alabasta.

At least ten people were killed in this attack.

"This is a warning to you." Daz retracted the blade.

He is the user of the Quick-Slashing Fruit, which allows blades to extend from any part of his body, and even his entire body to become a giant blade.

Before joining Baroque Studio, he was a feared killer with unparalleled swordsmanship, which, combined with the Quick-Slashing Fruit, allowed his strength to make a qualitative leap.

In the Baroque Studio, he is the general conductor of the Baroque Studio.

Although his position is third, his actual position is second only to Crocodile.

Rosen turned his head and glanced at Daz.

Daz's expression became dull, and it took Pola ten seconds to realize something was wrong.

"Daz!!" Pola looked at Rosen warily: "What did you do to Daz?"

"It's just a small illusion." Rosen said disapprovingly, "It's also a warning. Don't bother me again."

After saying that, Rosen turned and left. It took Daz more than ten minutes to wake up.

"Where are the people? What happened just now?"

"You stood there for more than ten minutes, and no matter how I told you to, you didn't move. Do you know what happened?"

"I don't know. I think it only took a moment."

"That old man's ability is weird. He just glanced at you, and then you were frozen in place."

"We must report this matter to the president." Daz said with a serious expression.

If it was on the battlefield, or if a war had just started, you wouldn't even know how you died.

Datz took out the Den Den Mushi and contacted Crocodile.

"Sure enough, a bounty of 300 million berries means he is not a simple character." Crocodile was a little surprised. After all, he still trusted Daz's strength very much.

Daz was glared at by the other party, and then he froze in place.

This ability is really difficult to deal with.

It seems necessary for me to go there in person.

Now that his plan has reached a critical moment, he doesn't want any accidents to happen.

And a big pirate with a bounty of 300 million berries appeared in the Kingdom of Alabasta. Regardless of whether it was related to his plan or not, he could not sit idly by.

At this moment, a wheat-skinned woman walked into Crocodile's office. She was the second-in-command of Baroque Studio, Crocodile's partner, Nico Robin.

"How about I contact him?"

"If you are willing to make this trip, that would be great." Crocodile has always been cautious and defensive towards Nico Robin.

However, as a partner, Crocodile also gave Nico Robin authority second only to his.

Most of the time, Nico Robin is able to act freely and is not bound by the studio's rules.

It took Nico Robin three days to reach the Rapeseed Flower City.

When I walked into a bar, the first thing I saw was the white-haired old man sitting at the bar drinking.

Nico Robin came over and sat down next to Rosen with a smile on her face.

"Can you buy me a drink?"

Rosen turned his head and looked at Nico Robin: "Did you decide to come here on your own? Or did Crocodile ask you to come?"

"do you know me?"

"Of course, the famous Devil's Son."

"Hehe... It's really an honor for me to be remembered by a pirate with a bounty of 300 million berries."

"I'm just an old man. Why do you guys at Baroque Studio keep chasing me? It's really annoying."

"There will be a coup d'état in Alabasta in the near future. If I were you, I would not stay here any longer."

"I just knew there would be a coup, so I came here to see the warehouse of war. But if you continue to provoke me, I don't mind changing from a spectator to a contestant."

"Do you know the identity of the boss behind Baroque Studio?"

"Are you trying to warn me? Or are you here to snitch?"
