Chapter -27 - 42: Training Nefertari Vivi 2

"Little Sis, if you ever got the chance to become strong, will you take it?"

Robin inquired Vivi, albeit she knew that Vivi would take the chance. Vivi is a strong-hearted girl based on what she discovered from their bonding time.

"If the chance to become strong were to be displayed in front of me, I would take it. But on the condition that I would not need to went out from the country. If I need to went out from the country, I would have to refuse it."

Robin was perplexed as to why she stated that. Most people wouldn't hesitate to become strong, even if they were to betray their country, they would gladly do that. But, Vivi wasn't someone like that. Instead, she didn't want to leave the country.

"Why did you say that you will accept if the conditions was you would not need to leave the country?" Robin asked with curiosity.

"Well, if I leave the country, I could not see my citizens. My purpose as a royalty, was to served my citizens. I need to stay with them. I only want to become strong to protect my citizens. That's why, I didn't want to leave the country, even at the cost of I couldn't become strong."

Robin smiled gently with Vivi's words. Never could she expect that Vivi, thought of the citizens that reside in the country that important. She was glad that Vivi replied like that. Should Vivi were to become selfish and didn't care for the country, Robin would gladly said that she wasn't worth their time to Narmi.

Robin just chuckled lightly. 'This girl, if she were to join our crew, she would probably become a good battle potential. How unfortunate, Narmi some plan for her.'

Vivi just tilted her head to the side in puzzlement. She didn't know why Robin chuckled. Did she said something wrong? Is it because her statement that Robin laughed at her?

"Why are you laughing, Big Sis? Did what I said were funny? I don't care if you laugh, but what I said was true."

"It wasn't because what you said were funny. I just thinking something about you."

"What about me?" Vivi asked with a big round eyes.

"Well, I just thought that it was unfortunate that you weren't in our crew. We could have an increase in battle potential should you join us. Well, that about it."

"Yeah right."

Vivi sighed. She knew that Robin and the others were strong based on Robin said before. She really wanted to be like them, so that she can protect her country. But, this guys all of them went on journey. She couldn't join them just because she want it. She still had her responsibility as a royalty. Her face was filled with gloominess.

"Well, now now. Don't make gloomy faces like that. I asked that because Narmi had some plan for you. I just want to confirm something. Now that was said, Nami could you call Narmi?"

"Sure. Wait for a while." Narmi replied, while went in a swift motion.

'Big sis said that the young man had some plan for me. I am really curious about what he had planned.'

Narmi's Room, Alubarna Palace

During Robin, Nami and Vivi bonding time, Narmi called Law and Henry to his room. He had some planned for their movements as of now. He thought that they still have about 3 years before Luffy start his journey.

When Law and Henry had came, he signalled for them to take a seat and stated about his plan.

"Law, if I were still remember, you have about three of your friends out there right?"

"Yeah, Bepo, Shachi and Penguin. Though I didn't know where they went after I left them, as I didn't contacted them yet."

"Well, here I was planning. You can take Henry and Nami and went on an expedition using Errege. You can either find your friends, or recruit someone new. But only find someone that were loyal. I didn't want any snakes."

"Why did you planned this? Where did you and Robin would go if we were to went on an expedition?"

"I am planning on staying in Alabasta for a while. I planned on training Cobra's daughter. You see, I want to put Alabasta under our protection."

"Why did you want to protect this place? Isn't this place were under World Government? Shouldn't we just left them be?"

"That's where you were wrong. World Government indeed hold this place, but it wasn't important to them. I intend to take over this place slowly from World Government's hand, although I would still like Cobra to rule this country. He is a good King."

"But then, why would you want to train his daughter?"

"It was easy if I did that. I would still want to continue the journey, so his daughter would act as our replacement here. She could help protect this place. I am confidence that she would gladly agreed with my plan."

"So that was it. Fine then, we will prepared for our expedition. For how long would you like to stay here?"

"I planned for another 2 years. Like how I trained you guys, but not as intense as that, as this country's threat were only like newcomer pirates. Also, I planned this so that the Marine's attention would divert, as they thought that I went for an expedition with you guys. It was killing two birds with one stone."

Law just nodded his head. Indeed, this plan could probably divert Marine's attention from him. Suddenly, the door was opened, with Nami were the one that opened it.

"Big Bro Narmi, Big Sis called for you."

Narmi then stand up from his seat and went away from the room, leaving Law and Henry planning for their expedition.

Robin's Room, Alubarna Palace.

After waiting for about half an hour, finally Nami came back with Narmi. Robin then went up from her seat and went towards Narmi and explained about her observation and confirmation.

Narmi was glad with what Robin had done, so he kissed her forehead after that. He then make his way to Vivi and said.

"Princess Vivi, I would like to ask you to join our crew, Grand King Pirates. I would help you become stronger."

"I'm happy for the invitation, but I would need to refuse as I....." Vivi replied, but were cut short by Narmi

"I know the reason. I want you to join us as an unofficial member. You don't need to follow us, as I wanted to placed you here as our stand-in. I had made promise to your father to protect this country."

Vivi were happy when Narmi said that. She didn't expect that he would agreed to her condition. With a vigorous nod she replied.

"Then if you say so, I would impose you on your invitation."

"Great then. In a week, we would start our training, and I planned to train you for two years. I would talk about this later with your father, seeing as I had your confirmation on this matter."

"Thank you. I am really grateful."

Vivi then stand up and bowed to him. He just smiled and went away from the room.
