Chapter 288: A War is Brewing



"Come and sit here boy, I don't bite," Alexander stated, easing the tense air.

Silver Rayleigh smiled and sat beside him. "So, this must be your last stop in Paradise."

"Haha, absolutely correct. The world will know tomorrow that the World Government is just Half World Government now." Alexander joked.

"Ah, Roger would have loved to see this day. A smack on the World Government's face is always enjoyable." Rayleigh commented.

"So, What's the first mate of Roger Pirates doing here?" Alexander inquired.

"Nothing, just living my retirement peacefully. Coating ships is a pretty satisfying job." He replied and drank from his glass.

"And what would it take to bring you out of this retirement?" Dobby asked.

"Never thought of this, maybe if Roger was to miraculously come back to life." Rayleigh looked like he was taking a trip down the memory lane.

~Haha, he's in for a big surprise then.~

*Ring Ring*

Alexander's phone rang, which was rare these days. It was from Roger.

"Old man, I think I found the Ancient Weapon, Uranus. Though I am not sure but whatever it is it's pretty huge and strange. Come fast." Roger sounded excited on the other side.

Alexander quickly got up. "Dobby, let's go. Important stuff. Okay, Rayleigh and Shakuyaku. See you later maybe."

They both went out and through the Anywhere Door, they reached Roger. Alexander looked around and saw that they were on an uncharted Sky Island.

Roger had probably come to the sky island on the flying carpet he had given him.

"Ah, Alex, follow me." Ragnarok was also there.

"What are you doing here?" Alexander asked.

"I was getting bored so I decided to help him a bit," Ragnarok answered. Alexander just remembered that Roger and Ragnarok had struck up a very good friendship.

"So, what did you find?" He asked. In front of them was a huge temple-like building.

"Come in and see it for yourself."

They followed Ragnarok in and came to an open area. In its center was a humongous ship, bigger than any ship he had seen on the planet till now. Even his warships looked like ants in front of it.

*BOOM*

Roger jumped down from the deck of the ship with a loud thud, "Hahaha, have you ever seen this, Ancient old man? This looks like it's from your time."

Alexander rolled his eyes at the lame joke. ~My Ironheim is bigger than Solar Systems.~

"Hmm, this could be Uranus. It's probably a flying machine/weapon." Alexander remarked.

"You tried to start it up?" He asked.

Roger shook his head, "No, I did see the place from where it gets operated but I couldn't understand a thing. So, I called the smartest person I know."

"I am flattered..." Alexander couldn't complete his sentence as Roger again messed with him.

...

Marineford,

*PERUPERUPERUPERUPERU*

Sengoku picked it up, "What?"

"Okay, escort him to Impel Down. Keep 3 Vice Admirals with him at all times." He ordered and hung up. He looked back at his friend eating rice crackers.

"Garp..." He called him. He knew it was going to be sad news for him.

"I told you before to keep an eye on him. Ace just got arrested and he will surely get executed by the orders from above."

Garp suddenly stopped eating and his always friendly smile vanished.

"I gotta go somewhere, Sengoku. Give me a leave." Garp got up.

"Don't think of going to save him." Sengoku bellowed.

Garp showed him his serious face, "I'm not going to, and believe me Sengoku. But remember one thing, the old man treated Ace like his own Grandson. Imagine what he would do when he finds out. I wonder if there will be a Marineford left."

Sengoku shuddered at the thought of that. "Dammit, I should take retirement."

...

Sphinx Island

"POPS! Bad news. Ace got caught. It was Teach. They are going to execute him in a week." Marco informed Whitebeard.

Whitebeard had now fully recovered from the disease and his magnificent blond hair had also grown back. He stood up and picked up his lance.

"Prepare to sail. A family always watches each other's back. Ace will not die, not as long as I am alive." He sternly announced.

...

The World Government, Marine, and The Blackbeard-Big Mom alliance were all strong. But they were underestimating their enemy a lot. They didn't know that Whitebeard was in perfect health. They didn't know that Roger was alive and they certainly didn't know the scope of Alexander's power. In short, they had dug a hole for themselves and now were just waiting to die and fill those said holes.

A huge war was brewing now and its smell would reach the whole world in no time.
