"Alright then, so here are my demands-
1) You have to promise not to bully me again.
2) You people are never going to force me to do anything against my will
3) You are not to disturb me when I m sleeping
Do that and I will forgive you for your earlier actions since I have a big heart and all" said dino
"Right. Now that that's out of the way, lets get to the details of your fruit."
"Hoy take this seriously! I-"
"Alright that's enough. Now tell us about your fruit already" said guy with a serious tone, which scared dino a little.
"Alright fine" said dino, realizing if he goes out of his way here, guy can always get back at him when they return to their universe.
"So basically, the fruit gives me the power to teleport myself, and anything that I touch, anywhere within my line of sight. I can't get any farther than that though. Also there is one more power like, I can create a portal between 2 places."
"Well that seems quite an interesting ability. Also can you give more details about that portal thing? Its not quite clear by just you telling us" asked leon
"Alright. Lemme show you. So its like this-"
Then dino snaps his fingers and a portal appears in front of him.
"I have marked my room as the destination location, so now I can create a portal anywhere that leads me to my room. But there is actually a catch here. I can't use these portals myself, since then the portal here will disappear and it will reset. Also I need to physically travel to a location to mark it as a destination point. I can also modify the size, shape and number of these portals that I open, though they will still all lead to the destination point." explained dino
"Well that seems like quite a complicated fruit, but it has the potential to be very useful to us"
"Dino good job" commented ramiris.
"Heh"
And then they start discussing about the various scenarios and ways to use that fruit, then suddenly rimuru has a strange feeling
"Aren't we forgetting something?"
Which drew everyone's attention
"Right. We left veldora behind" said dagruel.
.........
"Right. Dino go and fetch him before he causes any trouble" said rimuru
and dino suddenly teleported on laboon's head at once, grabbed veldora, and teleported back.
"Whoo nice ability you got there dino! kyahahaha"
"Hey veldora! what the hell were you thinking? Didn't I tell you not to mess with laboon?" scolded rimuru
"Eh? You did?" asked veldora while scratching his head
*sigh* "so you weren't paying attention. NO SWEETS FOR YOU FOR 2 WEEKS WHEN WE GET BACK!"
"B-but rimuru-"
"Shut up and go reflect on your actions!" scolded rimuru
'That's right. I have to be harsh with him in such moments. If he repeats this mistake in the future, it will mean trouble for us.'
"Well then now what next?" asked leon
"Right. We need to choose a route to travel through the first half of the grand line."
"Well our route is already decided actually" said rimuru "diablo you managed to get that eternal pose right?"
"Yes Rimuru sama. Here it is" diablo handed the eternal pose over to Rimuru.
"Where does that lead us to?" asked guy
"Well the exact details are unknown to me too. But according to the rumors, it is a newly found island, where even the world government hasn't managed to land foot on yet. It isn't part of any route of the grand line and cannot be reached without this eternal pose. How it was discovered in the first place, and who made its eternal pose is a mystery in itself, and this one here is most likely the only eternal pose that leads there in existence" explained diablo.
"Wow that's quite a catch you managed to find diablo. Now i m even more excited to find out about this mysterious island." said guy excitedly
"Alright then. Lets just follow the eternal pose and reach that island first. Then we will see what to do next." announced rimuru.
And thus, they set their course towards the mysterious island, unknown to what kind of dangers and adventures they are going to face there.
Suddenly the weather changed to a terrible storm
"KYAAA! what the hell? it was sunny just a moment ago. Looks like being near the reverse mountain is starting to have its effects."
"Hehe its quite fun in this weather as well. Lets just enjoy our way" said milim
"Everyone! take your positions at once! the weather can change any moment again and we need to be prepared!"
"Hai captain!" said everyone in unison, and immediately started their work.
"Dagruel hold the sails! guy take the helm! Milim and veldora stop playing in the water and come help!" shouted rimuru one after another, giving them instructions.
<You are finally acting like a real captain master. Cute>
'Did you say something ciel'
<Its just your imagination>
And like that, after hours of toiling and hard work, they finally managed to get out of the terrible stretch of sea. Everyone was lying here and there, completely exhausted.
"Wow that was fun. It really is fun being pirates" exclaimed milim
"Right *huff* it was *huff* really *huff* fun *huff*" said ramiris
"Alright head count time. I hope no one got blown away this time" said rimuru mockingly, looking at veldora.
"Kyahahaha like that measly storm can do anything to us. You worry too much rimuru!" said veldora
"You are one to talk you stupid lizard! Have you already forgotten what you did as soon as we entered grand line?" said luminas threateningly
"Oh that, don't mind that tillis, that was, um, just me trying out my veldora art of flying kick"
"Ugh Even now! Damn it I don't have the energy to deal with this right now. I will take care of you later you stupid lizard"
"Alright everyone, rest while you can. We have a lot of journey ahead of us and who knows when we will get to rest again once we reach that island." said rimuru
"He's right. Lets not underestimate anything just because we are strong" said guy
Suddenly there was a sound of door opening.
"What are you guys doing sleeping at this time of the day? And here I thought 𝘐 was the one who is always lazy" sighed dino
"YOU! Don't tell me you were sleeping all this time?" asked ramiris
"Huh? Of course. Didn't you see how nice the weather was? What else was I supposed to do?" replied dino as if ramiris asked a very stupid question
"#@!#$$@^#%%" blurted ramiris some words which needed to be censored due to the maturity rating of this fanfic.
........
After some time, everyone was read and back on their foot.
"Yosh. How far away is the island now rimuru?"
"Its quite some far away still. But it looks like we will have to deal with another trouble first." said rimuru, pointing towards a giant creature staring at them from under the water.
"Isn't that a sea king? I have never seen one like this before tough" said leon
Suddenly the creature roared and jumped towards them.
"Leave this to me" said dagruel and jumped in the trajectory of the creature, readied his fist, and as soon as the creature was about to crash him, he punched it in its face, which sent the creature back flying.
"Its not an ordinary sea king. I thought I used enough power in that punch to smash his skull, but it only managed to push it back."
"Why is there such a creature in grand line though? Aren't such creatures generally found in the new world?" asked luminas
"Looks like that's because we are nearing the mysterious island." suggested guy
"So you mean that creature is a kind of its guardian or something?"
"That I m not sure of. In any case, this just made me all the more interested in knowing what kind of mysteries are laying hidden on that island" said guy, smiling
"Whooooo! its giving me chills just imagining the various possibilities! I want to go there as soon as possible!" said ramiris
And everyone was all the more excited to get on this so called, mysterious island.
Meanwhile the creature roared again, aiming to attack.
"Right. Lets take care of this first."
Once again, dagruel jumped at the incoming attack, this time using full potence of his raw physical power, combined with haki. And bam! its skull split in two! Dagruel then landed gracefully on the cosmos, with only one line in his mouth-
"Let the fun begin"
