Ch. 135

As soon as the call was made, in different kind of areas, exactly where the straw hat pirates reside, a screen popped up in each of them.

"W-wha- What's this?" Zoro gripped his sword tightly as he raised his awareness.

"What's this? Oh wait, is that Luffy?" Sanji, who was lying on the grassy floor, saw a screen show up in front of him.

The others also saw a screen appearing in front of their faces and the first thing they saw was the grinning face of Luffy.

"Do I really miss Luffy that bad that I started hallucinating about him?" The sniper, Usopp wiped his eye as he though he was only hallucinating.

"Oyyyy!!! Everyone!! Shishishishishi." Luffy started making weird dances while clapping his hands.

Xyrus chuckled and let Luffy be with the screen, alone. To give him privacy with his crewmates.

"When are you going to leave, leader?" Whitebeard drank from his gourd before asking Xyrus.

However, Whitebeard didn't noticed that what he just said shocked everyone on the ship.

"Wha- Leader? Pops, what do you mean by leader, does that mean that Whitebeard pirates is under someone?" One of the captains asked him.

"Gurarararara. You guys don't need to worry, I just joined this group that gives me strength and such by doing tasks. One of them is the reason why my injuries are healed. And also this." Whitebeard then raised his hand and a bunch of shadow converged into one, forming a shadow similar to the outlines of Whitebeard.

"A-awesome!" Ace's eyes started twinkling, as his dream of making Whitebeard the Pirate King is near.

"And Leader here, is the one who created the group. So, be respectful to him." Whitebeard the pointed his finger at Xyrus and reminded them.

"I see, no wonder he helped us, it turns out Pops has a more terrifying backing that could probably rival, even the World Government." The pirates started cheering and getting happy, what Whitebeard released to them is a good news.

It means that no one would really mess with their Whitebeard Pirates and they could maintain their No. 1 Strongest Pirates on the sea.

"I'm thinking of tomorrow, since I still have something to do." Xyrus replied to his question.

"Well then, as a member of the Group Chat, let me throw a party for you." As he said that, the pirates around them cheered even more and brought out all the foods and delicacies.

"Who am I to refuse." Xyrus shrugged and joined the party.

Soon, Luffy finally ended the call with his crewmates and also joined the party, by always sticking around with Ace.

Soon, a new day has come, and on the ship, countless 'corpses' laid on the ground, including the red haired pirate, Shanks, who also joined the party yesterday.

Meanwhile, somewhere on the ship, Xyrus was chatting with America and her mother, after all, he felt like a jerk for leaving them in Foosha Village while he's here partying and having fun.

"We should leave now, so we could find Elena." America and Amalia agreed, they're finally about to reunite and all of this is thanks to the man in front of them.

Xyrus nodded at them and walked out of the room to get some fresh air when, Alfred, who had been quiet these days, finally spoke.

[Sensei, I suggest we don't leave first.]

"Why is that, Alfred?" Xyrus curiously asked.

[I could sense a foreign soul residing on this planet, if my guess is right, then this soul should be one of the Chosen Ones.]

Hearing what he said, Xyrus's eyes widened in surprise as he didn't expect that there would be a chosen one in this world.

"Can you sense where it is? I'm not familiar with a Chosen One's soul aura yet."

[He's in front of you, sensei.]

"Front of me?" Xyrus was confused and looked in front of him, and in there, he only saw Luffy laying on the ground full of grease on his mouth.

"It can't be him, right?" Xyrus's mouth twitched.

[Sorry to disappoint you, sensei, but it is indeed him.]

"Sigh, why didn't I noticed this earlier." Xyrus then walked forward and pressed his palm on Luffy's chest.

As his palm made contact with his chest, at the same time, Xyrus casted a soul scanning spell.

"Alfred's right. But unlike what I expected, there's just another soul sticked inside his soul. Seperating them should be easy."

Not only was the soul sticking inside Luffy's soul, but it also gave Luffy some kind of protection from death or something.

"It's like some kind of destiny or fate manipulation." Xyrus muttered, being able to manipulate destiny or fate is something akin to a God.

However, unlike the soul inside, it could only form some kind of protection to Luffy but not enough to manipulate destiny itself.

'Joyboy?' As Xyrus scanned the Chosen One's soul, he unconsciously discovered its name.

'Interesting, looks like this world is more mysterious than I thought.' Xyrus smirked and shook his head. This is not his world, he's just visiting it. So whatever problems this world has, it's not his, preferably it is Whitebeard's problem so it could strengthen him.

The time gem on his hand burst out in power the whole world stopped in time.

"Don't want someone seeing this." Xyrus muttered before seperating his and Luffy's soul from their bodies.

Like what he did to America, Xyrus carefully and slowly seperated the Chosen One's soul from Luffy's.

As for if there are any consequences? Xyrus has many cards to ensure that nothing bad will happen to Luffy, and even if those cards of his didn't work, he could just reverse the time.

However, as he kept seperating the chosen one's soul from Luffy's soul, the chosen one's soul kept struggling like a baby resisting the hold of a stranger.

"Interesting, it's like the soul still has its conciousness." Xyrus's eyes beamed in fascination as a force tried to pry his mind.

"It can even affect other souls?" Xyrus started getting interested for this little blob of soul, so he immediately plucked it out.

The soul can't even struggle completely when it was already plucked out.

Xyrus brought the soul in front of his face, even in such situation, it still tries to escape.

Not only that, it even tries to force itself on his mind, however, Xyrus could clearly tell that it meant him no harm and that it just wanted to form some kind of telepathic connection so they could converse.

"Well, since It meant no harm, then let me see what have for me." Xyrus said as he finally allowed the soul to open a link to his mind.

"Hello there, young man." He heard an old voice sounding on his head.

"Young man? Mister, you have no idea how old I am." Xyrus chuckled.

"Okay then, I know this sounds a bit rude but why would you seperate me from my successor? What do you want from me?"

"Successor? Well, in simple terms, if he is your successor then I'm also your successor. I'm the sixth Chosen One." Xyrus explained as the talking old man was silent after hearing his words.
