Chapter 13 Sabaody Archipelago

About a week as passed since finding the legendary Takoyaki sauce and they arrived at Sabaody Archipelago. The ship docked around island 27 where most pirate ships would be docked.

Paul: " Let's go look around. Daz, go look around the human auction places and see if you find anything interesting. Robin and Sera, you guys can do as you please. "

With the gold that Paul took from sky island and the treasure that he 'received' from the side adventure of the legendary Takoyaki, they were pretty wealthy. Paul was going to look for something to do... maybe he'll mess with a world noble, maybe not.

After walking for an hour, Paul say a long pathway created and the natives of the island kneeling making a pathway. Paul thought of nothing of it and kept walking down the free pathway.

Civilian 1: " What is going on with him. Who's this guy."

Civilian: 2: "... I know who's this person, not long ago, he along with ace and his crew drove off several vice-admiral. His crew is very strong although they are a small group. "

Civilian 3: " Whoever he is he's crazy."

Civilian 4: " Shhh, they're coming."

Walking along the path, Paul was hearing their side conversations. After hearing the last comment, he already knew what was going on. A world noble is here that was why people are kneeling at the sides.

'cling''cling' sounds of chains came not far behind Paul. Paul looked behind himself and saw that it was Saint Charlos. 'this bastard' thought Paul as he saw that he was in a carriage that was riding on humans.

Saint Charlos saw that there was a person who didn't kneel and make way for him.

Saint Charlos: " You... are you not gonna kneel!!??"

Paul: " Kneel? I kneel to no one."

Paul smiled and slowly walked up to him. While walking, he started to unless his conquerors haki slowly. He first knocked the guards that were by Saint Charlos's side. He then walked up and slowly rose up till he was a head higher than Saint Charlos.

Paul: " You should kneel as you are weaker than me."

Saint Charlos: " You.... you can die here then."

Saint Charlos immediately pulled out a golden gun and shot forwards. 'bang' 'bang'. As the bullets came towards Paul, he didn't even move and just waved his hands that easily blocked the bullets.

Paul: " Is that all you got little Charlos. Pathetic"

Saint Charlos grew even more angry and embarrassed. He took out a golden telephone. This telephone was meant to call in the world government ordering an admiral to deal with the offending party.

Seeing the golden telephone, Paul immediately moved forwards and grabbed the telephone.

Paul: " What are you going to do now? Do you need people to take care of your problems."

Paul just stood there, teasing Charlos.

Paul: " You are all kneeling down for this pathetic fool? Are you lambs waiting to be slaughtered. Slaves are illegal according to the World Government but what do we see here? Slaves by these so called World Nobles. They are descendants of this world's creators? If the world's creators are like this... then we don't need them."

After Paul's words, there were a few people that stood up. These people in particular was a victim or knew someone close to them who were victims of the World Nobles. After those few people stood up, more and more people began to stand up too.

Paul: " I am not here to start a revolution or something, I am not Dragon. However, I just want to bring into light that the world government isn't what is has always been. Sure there are some pirates out there who does nothing but kill and rob innocent people, but the World Nobles are that different either. Who are they to order us around. They are merely the descendants of the 'world's creators and not the world creators themselves. "

After finishing his words, he used his conquerors haki on Saint Charlos and walked away, leaving an astonished crowd. This incident would surely cause a commotion.

--------------------------------

Marine Headquarters.

Sengoku: " Damn this Paul, humiliating the celestial dragons. His words to the surrounding people... he is deliberately defying us. The World Government is furious with his actions. They are demanding we take action."

Garp: " Uahahahaha. This pirate is pretty arrogant. However, his words seems a little troubling. I wonder if he has some connections to the revolutionary army."

---------------------------------

Somewhere on an island inside a castle.

Dragon: "hmm. This person is interesting. Find out more about him, see if we have him join us."

Subordinate: " Yes."

-----------------------------------

Still strolling along, Paul wanted to do one more thing before going down to fish-man island. He wanted to see Rayleigh just once and feel his strength. He started to make his way to area 13 Shakky's rip-off bar.

This time Paul did not take his sweet time, although he did not directly punch the celestial dragon, he did something a little worse and knew that an admiral would be coming soon.

About to enter Shakky's rip-off bar, he ran into an old man. This old man was of course the dark king silvers Rayleigh.

Rayleigh: " Hello, young man, why have you come here, do you need your boat coated?"

Paul: " Dark King, Silvers Rayleigh, I do not need to my ship coated, however I am questioning my strength at the moment. I was able to deal with a vice-admiral, but was unable to defeat them. I was wondering if we could spar a bit, so I can learn more about where my strength lies when I go into the New World."

Rayleigh: " hahaha Test your strength? Against these old bones. I'm afraid I might let you down young man."

Paul: " It's okay then, I am still coming though."

Paul and Rayleigh grew more serious and then Paul immediately went all out. He was immediately covered in dragon scales. Paul used armament haki to his fullest ability and coated his arms.

Paul: " Dragon pulse"

Paul beginning using new moves and different types of moves. He began infusing different elements into his moves and wrapping them together and trying his best to push Rayleigh back. However, during their clashes, Rayleigh never took a step back from the clashes. He moved around but was never pushed back rom the clashes. Paul was getting more used to his ability and strength was beginning to properly use more and more strength.

After 30 minutes of sparring, Paul was already seen out of breath and his hair ruffled. While Rayleigh seemed perfectly fine. Paul sat on the ground and laid backwards catching his breath.

Paul: " seems like I still have work to do to beat you Rayleigh."

Rayleigh: " Beat me?? hahaha there's no point in beating me. I'm already old and past my prime. I only want to coat ships and live peacefully."

Paul: " The point of beating you is exactly because you are old. haha. If I can't beat you then how will I surpass the previous pirate king... I'll probably be leaving soon, however, I will come challenge you every now and then Rayleigh."

Rayleigh: " hahaha, If you want to surpass us then it may still take a little bit more time. However, I can still see your potential. You will barely survive against people of the admiral level however, that kind of strength is hard to come by, unless you deliberately look for trouble haha."

Paul: " Thanks for the tip, but I better get out of here before an admiral comes and causes trouble for me or you."

Rayleigh: " Will then, I will let you go on your way, I still want to go gamble hahaha."

Paul quickly ran across the human auction area and told Daz to return to the ship, Then went near the shopping district to find Robin and Sera. After finding the two, the three quickly left the area and went back to the ship.

Just as the four got on the ship, he was about to set out. Until a bright flash of light appeared on the ship.

Kizaru: " Excuuusee meeee. Are you Paul of the Chaos Pirate."

Paul: " Yes I am, Kizaru, Could I ask you to leave this ship. We are just about to head out."

Kizaru: "What to do, you attacked the Celestial Dragon and pissed off Sengoku and the world government."

Paul: " attacked? What did I do. I didn't touch a single hair on his pathetic body hahaha and he fainted just like that. Kizaru, you hold tremendous power, but you are the back and call of the world government? Is that something to be proud of Kizaru."

Kizaru: " Well look at you. You can't influence me Paul. You got a scary thought process going on. I think it would be better for us if you surrender peacefully."

Paul: " Hmm, I rather not, If you would excuse me..."

'bang' Before Paul could finish his words, Kizaru disappeared before them and a bright light could be seen before Kizaru appeared before Paul sending a kick at his face. Paul was sent flying.

Paul: " Can't let a man finish talking? Kizaru, aren't you a little impatient."

Kizaru: " To be able to take a hit from me and still stand, you are getting more and more dangerous. Ama no Murakumo."

Paul: " Dragon slash."

Paul coated his arm in haki as he chopped forwards clashing against Kizaru's sword that was made out of light. The two clashed a few times and Paul was sent flying nearly after every clash. Although he didn't have as much strength and speed against Kizaru, with his immortality nearly reaching 50%, his physical body was durable. He only suffered from a few injuries. He couldn't keep up with all of Kizaru's moves but thanks to observation's haki's ability to locate devil fruit users, and armament haki's ability to touch and damage logia users, he was barely able to stand up to Kizaru.

He put fused lightning into his hand and slashed forwards once again. 'boom' Kizaru was finally slammed backwards into the island.

Paul: " Let's leave now before he comes back."

Kizaru: " You won't be getting away from me that easily."

Kizaru appeared above the ship as the ship began to emerge into the water.

Kizaru: " Yasakani no Magatama."

Paul: " Hold off the those light beams."

Sera: " Burning Shower."

Daz: " Spider."

Sera summoned her wings, and generated holy fire and sent several fire towards the bursting fragments of light. Daz stayed on the boat deflecting any stray beams that might damage the ship. Paul controlled the water as it began to rise up and circle around the ship.

The ship began to submerge deeper and deeper into the water as the light burst from Kizaru still maintained its attack but it was getting close rand closer. But it soon stooped as it no longer reached them when they were deep underwater.

Paul: " Phew, that was close. haha."

Kizaru: " Oh man, Sengoku is gonna be mad."

Paul: " Next destination, Fish-man Island."
