One Piece: I Can Simplify Skills - Chapter 41
“Alright, I’m willing to hand over Olvia; I just hope you can let us off the hook!” Sengoku said with a serious expression, his tone genuine. Rokujins, however, didn’t dare believe him, remaining silent: “…” What is he playing at? No fight, and he’s willing to hand her over? Could Sengoku intend to let Olvia go, using me as a means?
As soon as he spoke, a nearby Marine stood up, “Admiral Sengoku, she is a wanted criminal by the World Government. Are we going to release her?” “If we return, they won’t let us off easily.” “You know nothing, just release her, and if anything happens, I will explain it to the higher-ups!” Sengoku roared. The man in black before them was unfathomably strong, not someone they could handle. Choosing to fight left them with only one option. Death! His decision was solely to protect everyone on the ship. “Yes!” At that, the Marine reluctantly returned to the cabin and brought Olvia up.
At that moment, Olvia, dressed in grey, had white hair and blue eyes like Robin’s and had a kind and mature look.
?Character: Olvia?
?Position: None?
?Level: F-?
?Skills: Physical Arts (F), History (SS+), Scholarship (S)…?
Not strong in combat, but immensely knowledgeable. Meanwhile, freshly brought out into the light, Olvia sized up the man in black, pondering who he could be and why he would save her. Regardless, he wasn’t from the World Government or the Marines!
“Sir, this is Olvia. I hope you will keep your promise!” Sengoku nodded, signalling the Marines to release Olvia. Seeing this, Olvia walked towards Rokujins, still holding her hands in iron chains. “Since you’ve released her, I will keep my promise and tell the Marines thank you for the night!” Rokujins walked over to Olvia, put an arm around her waist, left a message, and then jumped off the Marine ship. They quickly departed! There was a better time to stay.
As for leaving a name, it was entirely to intimidate the other side. The more mysterious, the better! Only after Rokujins and Olvia had gone did Sengoku immediately pick up a Den Den Mushi to notify Marine Headquarters: “Hello! Is this Marine Headquarters? I need to speak with Fleet Admiral Sengoku. That man in black has appeared again…”
Meanwhile, elsewhere. “Crack!” Rokujins used his Haki to break the chains, lock Olvia, and free her. “Thank you!” After moving her hands, Olvia looked at him sceptically and asked, “Who are you? Why did you save me?” Rokujins couldn’t think of a reason right away and simply said, “I just wanted to save you!”
“Uh… You’re not from the Marines. Are you part of the Revolutionary Army?” Suddenly, Olvia’s face turned slightly red, surprised. Since he knew her identity and wasn’t from the Marines or pirates, he could only be from the Revolutionary Army. “Stop guessing. My identity isn’t important. What’s important is that you can’t return to Ohara now. The World Government is about to issue an order to eradicate it.” Rokujins said helplessly.
After rescuing Olvia, the system didn’t indicate the task was complete. It could only count as complete after the situation in Ohara was resolved and Olvia was still alive. “No, I must go back. The people there are waiting for me to save them!” “Even if I have to swim back, I will return!” Olvia’s eyes were resolute, ready to jump off the boat and swim. Hearing this, Rokujins shook his head helplessly, “Alright, then I’ll take you back; I just hope you won’t regret it!” “I won’t regret it!” Olvia affirmed.
“Good!” So, Rokujins turned the boat around and continued towards Ohara. With him there, taking Olvia alone was fine. Moreover, Robin is the main character, so she isn’t in danger. Besides, both Aokiji and Sengoku were around. No big problem!
Meanwhile, at Marine Headquarters. Garp, picking his nose, walked into Sengoku’s office and asked, “What did you call me for?” “That man in black who assaulted a Celestial Dragon has appeared again!” Sengoku stated directly. “What? Where?” Garp’s expression changed as he continued to ask. “West Blue!” “West Blue?” “Yes!” After a moment, Garp frowned, lost in thought. Could
Is it Rokujins again? His place is quite close to the West Blue, but it couldn’t be him, right? Besides, his strength isn’t enough, and Mihawk wouldn’t let him leave just like that! No, I’ll have to ask Mihawk later! Sengoku continued, “According to Admiral Sengoku, that man in black calls himself ‘The Night’ and has rescued the wanted criminal Olvia!” “You want me to go to the West Blue and capture that man in black?” “Yes!” After a moment, Garp smiled and said, “Alright, I agree.” “Good, you can set off then, and if it’s convenient, try to capture Olvia too!” Sengoku instructed. “Alright!” Garp waved his hand and left directly. That man in black had something to do with his grandson, Rokujins. This chapter has not ended,
If he doesn’t go, and someone else does, wouldn’t his grandson be in danger? After Garp left, Sengoku still puzzledly muttered, “Why did he agree so readily today?”
Two days later, Rokujins and Olvia arrived at Ohara. Because they skipped the time usually spent fleeing, they reached the island a few days ahead of schedule. However, because Rokujins had rescued Olvia, the Marines were also rapidly approaching. When Olvia disembarked, she headed straight for the Tree of Knowledge on Ohara Island. As for Rokujins, he followed her at a distance, trying his best to remain concealed. The Marines may have already landed on the island.
Suddenly, the system notification sounded.
?Ding, congratulations to the host for triggering the task: Retrieve the historical text from the Tree of Knowledge in Ohara, system reward: Energy points +2!?
Historical text? What do I need that for? It’s just a piece of history. At most, it records information about the whereabouts of the three ancient weapons. However, since the system has issued the task, Rokujins naturally intends to retrieve it. Moreover, the system has unlimited storage space; could it be specifically used to hold historical text?
About ten minutes later, Olvia reached the Tree of Knowledge and hurried to inform the scholars inside. As for Rokujins, while Olvia was talking with Professor Clover and others, he sneaked into the Tree of Knowledge and slipped into the basement. Knowing the Marines were on their way, the scholars were all very nervous, so no one noticed him. Even Olvia, focused solely on warning the scholars to flee, didn’t even realise Rokujins was following right behind her.
