Time to train

Half a year Later

Shiro was currently reading the paper while in flight. On the front page was a picture of Jinbe and Fisher Tiger standing back to back. Jinbe held in standard fishman karate stance and Fisher Tiger holding a sword. The two along with their crew which had humans aswell had fought against five marine vice admirals.

Turning the page he could see Tesero using his gold fruit against two rear admirals while a Long legged woman fought another rear admiral. Shiro was surprised that they didn't send more fire power. After turning the page he understood why. The marines had launched an all out attack on WhiteBeard and Kaido to stop them from fighting on an island aligned with the WG. They managed to capture Kaido but when they neared Impel down the Beast Pirates appeared.

The Navy was already worn out from fighting both WhiteBeard, Kaido and the WhiteBeard pirates. So when the Beast Pirates appeared it was a one sided slaughter. Kaido was freed and the marines suffered heavy casualties. Shiro ignored the rest and continued his flight.

If he remembered correctly Vegapunk was no doubt the number one scientist. Followed by Judge, Ceaser, Indigo, Lindbergh, Haredas, Franky and Ussop. As for any others he didn't remember. Judge and Ceaser would definitely be apprehended by him later on for their various crimes. Especially Ceaser. Lindbergh was with the Revolutionary army and if he could convince dragon to join he'll come aswell.

The key point here is IF. As Shiro would definitely let dragon know his place and that he is not the leader. He didn't mind anyone being free and unfettered but he would not tolerate disrespect. Anyway back on topic Haredas may be a scientist but it was more centered on weather. But he could definitely use their knowledge as he doubts even dragon knows about as many Islands as this man and his companions. He would definitely visit them at some point.

This leaves Indigo, Franky and Ussop to which the latter two was a no since he didn't want to take the original strawhat crew apart. This is also the reason he didn't allow robin to join Dawn. This left only the eccentric Indigo who was incredibly loyal to Shiki. From what Shiro could tell from the manga and anime. Shiki didn't really injure innocents or rather never cared for them. His ambition lied in world domination. It seems he would have to talk with Rayleigh about this.

Stepping through a portal he landed on Dawn Island. He could see Rayleigh and Issho playing chess as the others either ran or did other stuff. Walking over he said

"Rayleigh I have a few questions to ask"

"Hmm go ahead and ask away"

" If you had to describe golden lion Shiki and his scientists Indigo what would it be" Rayleigh was at first stunned by the question before saying

"Shiki is incredibly proud and ambitious. He would never eat a loss laying down and although his plots are insane he never goes to far. Indigo is weird eccentric and down right weird. To answer your next question. No with his pride and arrogance Shiki would consider it beneath him to kill someone who doesn't pose an ounce of threat to him."

" Do you want me to go with you?" Issho asked

" Yea. Who knows he's been missing for a long time who knows what sort of strength he's amassed since then."

"I'll come along aswell. Hey you guys had better not slack off while we're gone!!! Otherwise I'll increase the load"

"Show me the way to Golden Lion Shiki" The map shined brightly before showing the route and Shiro used wind to lift both Issho and Rayleigh and they all flew away.

"I think I should do some renovations to Dawn Island. Hey Rayleigh could it be that Shiki was a prince of a kingdom somewhere. Otherwise I'd have to say you're lying if there's anything else"

"I don't know about that but I think I might just choose this island to relax on rather yours. Can you 'see' this Issho" Before Issho could speak Shiro spoke up

"Ah that reminds me. Say Issho would you like to see again or are you sticking with the super badass no seeing theme" His words caused both of them to be stunned.

"You can give me my eyes back." Although he had blinded himself due to the ugliness of the world. There are still some things he wishes to see including the face of Shiro, Dawn Island and some other things.

" Mhm their are two ways actually. One being I can reconstruct your eyes completely with my powers. However since I don't have experience in doing this and although my eyes allow me to see the structure of your eyes. Letting me work with even more effectiveness you'll have to wait until I have some understanding of eyes otherwise its just a 50% chance. The second is to have a doctor replace the eyes you have with another with my guidance. Aswell as mending and nurturing the blood vessels and nerves around your eyes with my energy."

"I'll wait until you you have understanding of a persons eyes"

" Ok I'll send a clone to study with hmmm holy cow."

"hahaha it seems as though shiki knows we're here."

" More like he sees you old man."

" Hahaha. Don't worry I'll handle him" He spoke while doing stretches not minding the falling mountain at all. Issho just looked towards Shiki. Shiro was actually on full fanboy mode now. He got some popcorn from the system inventory and made two wood chairs for him and Issho. Rayleigh looked over with twitching lips.

" What. its not everyday you get to see two legends fight." Rayleigh rolled his eyes drawing his sword and swung it four times. Four silver sword energies flew out cutting the mountain in eight different pieces. A golden light flew at a blinding speed towards Rayleigh.

BOOM Crackle Crackle

"Woah"

Just one clash between a sword and foot sword was enough to split the entire small island forest in half.

"What are you doing here bastard"

" Shiki I come in good faith can't we talk this out."

"SCRAM" Swoosh Swish swish swish swish Shiki flew into the sky sending a torrent of golden sword energies at Rayleigh who sent his own silver ones. Rayleigh vanished from his position appearing behind Shiki who smirked as one of the mountain pieces appeared beside Rayleigh.

"You never change tactics"

"You never stop relying on your DF"

Their fight continued for a couple hours as Shiki used his fruit to perfection along with his his sword strikes. Rayleigh used his Haki and sword waves exceptionally. It even seemed that he was sparring with Shiki who to Shiro seemed to be going all out. After the fight was done Shiki looked at Rayleigh with hate before saying.

"Why the hell are you here you bastard"

"I'm just here for support. He's the one who wishes to meet with you"

Shiro walked over with Issho in tow.

"Golden Lion Shiki I am Alex D Shiro and I wish for Doctor Indigo to join my organization as its lead scientists. Aswell as have you ally with us to overthrow the government. However I will tell you now that your goal of world domination I will not allow it. So will you allow Doctor Indigo to join the Dawn Organization as I'm sure the technology I hold and can acquire will definitely interest him."

"Sure why not. I'll see the capabilities you have to say such bold worlds. However i have no say in wether or not he'll help you." Shiki spoke after a while of silence

After which they went to find Doctor Indigo. After breif introductions Shiro showed him the Cell phone, ear buds, the way to forge Seastone and also half of the requirements to replicate the cloning of Germa. After seeing such things Doctor Indigo immediately agreed. Shiro allowed him and his team to come to dawn Island to work. He also gave shiki the coordinates aswell as a cellphone.

After setting them up with space and material Shiro visited weatheria. He managed to convince Haredas to send Islands with life that seem to be suffereing, hidden kigdoms etc. He also gave Shiro a list of such Islands.

He also got a call from Fisher Tiger saying Tom will join once he finishes with a project he's working on. Shiro knew it was the sea train and agreed. After that Shiro sent four clones to get the Df or follow the ones who would possess the df and take it. Those being the through through fruit of Tanaka. The net net fruit and the fruit of Wapol. He also sent two to look for Bartolomeo and Deserie in hopes they join and if not he would just warn them before letting them go.

Now it is time to train and he would only interfere in five events. Those five being Sabo being nearly cleared. This is to meet Dragon of course. The second is Otohime and making sure she doesn't get killed. The third is ensuring that Bellemire stays alive if Arlong by chance still goes evil. The fourth being to make sure Tom didn't fall into Spandams hands before the train was finished. The last is show casing the powers of the darkness fruit so that teach leaves the WhiteBeard pirates. This would ensure the Marineford war happens he hopes. Oh another in saving Kuina.

However all of this stuff was for later. It was time to train. Also look for an Island similar to Ruskaina but more powerful and ferocious.
