After Amber and the others stayed in Little Garden for a few more days, they decided to set off.

During this time, Amber challenged the two giants several times but still lost without using his fruit powers. In the last match, at the request of the two giants to use his full strength, Amber unleashed a powerful move that left the two giants crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

"Are you leaving so soon? The Log Pose shouldn't be set yet, right?" Dorry asked reluctantly. After all, few people had come to Little Garden over the years, and it was rare to meet someone who could fight with them.

"I already have a Log Pose set for Alabasta."

For Amber, who had read the original story, it was important to have the Log Pose in Little Garden set for a full year. However, he had already obtained (or stolen) a Log Pose for Alabasta through underground channels.

"Really? Then I wish you a safe journey!" Dorry didn't hesitate anymore.

"But be careful of the island-eating monsters around this island."

"Island-eating monster? What's that, a monster that feeds on islands?" Nami asked doubtfully.

"That's right, it's a monster that eats islands. It looks like a big goldfish, and even its poop is as big as an island!"

"What, it turns out that what the captain said is true!" Nami remembered that Amber had told her they would encounter giants, dinosaurs, and even giant goldfish that eat islands, and all of it had come true.

"Don't worry! Just sail forward, and Dorry and I will clear a path for you," Brogy laughed.

"Thank you very much, but I prefer to handle it myself. I have a new trick I want to try," Amber declined the help of the two giants.

"Are you sure? That thing is huge," Brogy said, a little worried.

"No need, I believe in the power of myself and my partners."

"Okay then," Brogy nodded.

...

Not long after, the Thunderbolt left Little Garden, and suddenly an island appeared on the sea ahead. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be the Island-Eating Monster.

"Wow! It's so big." Hearing about it was one thing, but seeing it was still shocking for Nami.

"Nami, Zoro, rush ahead and leave the rest to me!" Amber said loudly.

"No problem, Captain!" Nami and Zoro responded with smiles.

Amber slowly rose into the sky and began to release thunder and lightning from his hands. After a while, a huge black spherical thunderbolt formed.

"Thunder Welcome," Amber said softly, then pushed with both hands, sending the black thunderball toward the island-eating monster.

"Boom!" The thunderball quickly descended and struck the island-eating monster, causing a massive explosion.

After the smoke cleared, the entire giant island-eating monster had vanished.

The Thunder passed through the sea safely.

Amber slowly descended onto the ship, and Nami immediately pounced on him, hanging on Amber like a koala.

"Amber! You are amazing!"

Amber felt the softness of her body and couldn't help but feel a bit awkward.

"Nami, please get down first. This is a little uncomfortable," Amber said helplessly, scratching the back of his head.

"What's uncomfortable?...I'm sorry..." Nami asked in confusion at first, then suddenly felt something strange where their bodies touched. She blushed with embarrassment and hesitated to respond.

"Is this the captain's strength? One blow can destroy an island. In comparison, my strength is still too weak! I need to train harder!" Zoro thought to himself, gripping his sword tightly and planning to add a few more tons to his training regimen.

Next stop, Amber decided to go to Chopper's hometown—the Drum Kingdom. Chopper is so cute, has great medical skills, and is an excellent ship's doctor (who can also serve as an emergency food supply). How could Amber let him go?

Moreover, the system's mission had only found two partners so far. Amber was ready to bring Chopper and Robin on board, and then find a chef to complete the system's mission.

As for why not Sanji? Amber decided there was room for only one pervert on board.

What would Luffy do after setting sail? Who cares! After Amber arrived in this world, there was no so-called protagonist, only Amber himself.

...

Unknowingly, the ship sailed into the range of Drum Island, and snowflakes began to fall from the sky.

Amber and the others wore thick clothes.

"Brr, it's so cold. Amber, what are we doing here?" Nami crossed her arms and shivered from the cold.

Drum Island is not on the Grand Line's usual route, so Nami was puzzled as to why Amber came here.

"We're looking for a new partner. The medical skills here are famous. We can definitely find a good ship's doctor," Amber explained with a smile.

Under Nami's guidance, the Thunder soon arrived at Drum Island, and the three of them landed on the island.

Amber used Observation Haki to sense a village not far away, so he decided to go there to gather information.

"This bastard king, because of his order, only allows his own medical team. All other doctors in this country have been driven away, and the sick can only go to him."

"Unacceptable!"

The three of them entered a tavern and overheard some guests complaining about their king.

They ordered drinks and asked the tavern owner for information.

Through the tavern owner's story, Amber and the others learned about Wapol's evil deeds.

"Bang!" Nami slapped the table after hearing this.

"That's too much. How can such a person be a king!" Nami said angrily. Wapol's actions reminded Nami of what the Arlong Pirates did to Cocoyasi Village.

"In the countries under the World Government's rule, kings like this are common," Amber said, revealing a harsh truth.

Nami fell silent, shocked.

"Captain, are we going to kill him?" Zoro asked.

"Let's assess the situation first. Scum like this exist everywhere. Even if we kill Wapol, what if another Wapol appears? We can't always protect them. If they don't learn to resist, the situation will remain the same," Amber said calmly.

It sounded grand, but for Amber, saving the country was just incidental. The main point was that killing Wapol would significantly increase Chopper's favorability.

After eating and drinking, Amber asked the tavern owner about the location of Drum Castle and then set off.
