XX-level Hokage

"Never mind, the matter is resolved. Now it's time to discuss their fate. Let's report to the president first," Icarus continued.

Just then, a vulture wearing goggles and a sea otter wearing a coat jumped out. "You're all here. What a nice night," a woman's voice followed.

"Honestly, they assigned us such a boring job, and then specially sent us to this kind of front line, ugh!" followed by a somewhat dissatisfied male voice.

Then, with a "whoosh," a man with an afro and a trench coat, and a blonde woman carrying an umbrella, walked over. "Mr. 5! Mr. Valentine! What are you two doing here?" Icarus exclaimed in surprise.

Not only Icarus, but Mr. 9, Mr. Monday, and Vivi were all incredibly surprised. "We're here on a mission," Mr. 5 said impatiently.

"A mission? What kind of mission requires both of you to come here in person?" Mr. 9 asked suspiciously. Weiwei, on the other hand, had a vague sense of foreboding.

"Because there's a sinner here, the president specifically asked us to come here." Mr. 5 stepped forward and replied.

"Honestly, this sinner is so annoying, making us come all the way to this remote part of the Grand Line. But she'll be dead soon, hahaha." Mr. Valentine said with some dissatisfaction, then suddenly laughed.

"A sinner?" Mr. 9 was still very puzzled.

"That's what the president said: my secret has been discovered. Of course, I don't know what the secret is. Our company motto is secrecy. No one's background can be investigated within the company. That's the rule. So, if someone knows the boss's secret, they're doomed," Mr. 5 continued to explain.

"So we investigated carefully to find out who knew the boss's secret. Hahaha, the result was incredible! We discovered that an important figure from a certain kingdom had infiltrated our Baroque Works," Mr. Monday said with a laugh.

"A certain, a certain kingdom!? Let me clarify beforehand, although I wear a crown, I am not a king, it's just a hobby of mine." Mr. 9 thought he was being talked about and hurriedly explained.

“Of course not you,” Mr. Monday said with some dissatisfaction.

"The culprit is Princess Vivi, who is currently missing from the Kingdom of Alabasta. Don't you agree, Mr. Wednesday?" Mr. 5 looked at Vivi.

Icarus clenched his fists. He'd been exposed; it was time to end it here.

"Die, Curly Cannon!" Icarus launched an attack on the two instantly.

Chapter Twenty: The Princess's Journey to Reclaim Her Kingdom (Part Three)

"I will not let you touch a single hair on the princess's head, I swear on my name as the captain of the Alabasta royal guard!" Icarus said with unwavering determination.

"Captain Icarus of the Alabasta Kingdom's Guard and Princess Nefit Vivi, I have been ordered by the president of Baroque Works to kill you." As the smoke cleared, Mr. 5 and Mr. Valentine were unharmed. Mr. 5 pulled out a photo of Vivi and calmly said...

Upon hearing this, Icarus launched another attack, the gun hidden in his curly hair firing bullets continuously.

From within the smoke, Mr. 5 extended a hand and flicked it lightly. A small black ball landed on Icarus, and with a "thud," Icarus exploded instantly.

Immediately afterward, Icarum fell heavily to the ground. "Icarum!" Vivi rushed to his side. "It's no use, hahaha."

Laughter rang out, and Mr. Valentine suddenly flew into the air with his umbrella, kicking at Vivi.

Vivi dodged, but was still kicked in the headband, causing her long blue hair to fall loose. Seeing this, Vivi instantly retaliated, but Mr. Valentine easily dodged the attack.

The umbrella swayed, and Mr. Valentine floated to Mr. 5's side. "Monster!" Vivi said coldly, looking at the two of them.

Mr. 5 is a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit user with the power of the Blast-Blast Fruit. Any part of his body can explode, whether it's boogers or breath blown from his mouth. He is also immune to gunpowder and explosive attacks.

Mr. Valentine is a Paramecia-type Light-Weight Fruit user, who can freely manipulate her weight from 1 kg to 10000 kg. She can drift like a feather and suppress enemies with her astonishing weight. The umbrella she carries is used to correct her direction.

"So you really are a princess?!" Mr. Wednesday, hoho. "Just then, Mr. 9, who had finally figured out the situation, suddenly spoke up, and Mr. 9 proudly and excitedly twisted his body.

"Don't do anything foolish again, Mr. 9!" Vivi said, quite displeased with his behavior. "Lady Vivi!" Icarus, lying on the ground, spoke up.

"Icaram, are you alright?" Weiwei asked with great concern.

“If we lose you, our Alabasta nation will... Let’s go, hurry!” Icarim said, forcing himself to speak.

"Do you think you can escape my grasp?" Mr. 5 said, picking his nose. "Don't underestimate me!" Vivi pulled out her weapon.

But then, Mr. 9 stood in front of Vivi and said, "Although I have absolutely no idea what's going on, out of consideration for how long we've been partners, I'll explain..."

Hurry up and leave, Mr. Wednesday!

"Mr. 9..." Vivi exclaimed in surprise.

I'm a pretty good guy, right? Goodbye, Hot-Blooded Number Nine backflip! Mr. 9 somersaulted towards Mr. 5 and Mr. Valentine. Then he was instantly defeated by Mr. 5's booger bomb.

Then Mr. Monday stood in front of Vivi and said, "Although I don't understand what's going on either, since Icarus wants to protect you, I'll help you too. Go!"

After saying that, Mr. Monday rushed towards the two of them. Then, Mr. Valentine instantly pinned him to the ground. The two of them did buy Vivi some time.

Vivi had arrived at the door of the room where Mashiro and Tashigi lived. Trembling, Vivi pounded on the door, pleading, "Please, save me!"

"What? Is there some hidden expert? Haha, stop struggling, you sinner," Mr. 5 said coldly.

The two approached Weiwei step by step. Weiwei continued to pound on the door.

Under Vivi's terrified gaze, Mr. 5 flicked a booger bomb at her. "Boom!"

An explosion was heard.

Weiwei closed her eyes tightly, but the imagined pain didn't come. Instead, her body fell into a soft and warm embrace. A wisp of fragrance wafted into her senses, and Weiwei opened her eyes.

In the firelight and smoke, a beautiful and radiant face was reflected in her eyes.

Mashiro looked Weiwei up and down and said softly, "Your outfit tonight is quite nice. I would only agree to ask me for a favor if you looked like that."

Perhaps influenced by Mashiro's words on the ship, Weiwei changed her clothes after arriving at Whiskey Peak. Instead of wearing the unconventional outfit she wore as Mr. Wednesday, she wore a regular dress.

Although it was just an ordinary dress, as Vivi's long, sea-blue hair was let loose, her beautiful face was fully highlighted.

Having acquired immense power, Mashiro now prefers to act according to her own whims and moods. "Who are you? Mr. Wednesday's reinforcements?" she said, launching another booger-like bomb.

A stone wall appeared out of thin air, blocking the booger bomb. Then, an invisible slash cleaved the stone wall in two, passing right through it, and Mr. 5's body was also split in two.

Mashiro originally wanted to play with Mr. 5 a little longer; his abilities reminded Mashiro of Deidara. However, after seeing that Mr. 5 used bombs made from boogers...

After it was made, Mashiro gave up on the idea.

The Blast Fruit was given to someone like that... truly...

Looking at Mr. 5's body, which had been split in two, Mr. Valentine was too terrified to move. Her pupils trembled violently, as if she still couldn't believe the fact.

After setting Vivi, who was also looking utterly shocked, down on the ground, Mashiro walked lightly to Mr. Valentine, bent down, and said with a smile, "Now you have two choices: surrender or die."

"I surrender." Seeing Mr. 5's miserable state, Mr. Valentine instantly chose to surrender. [Name: Michita (Mr. Valentine)]

Gender: Female Age: 20

Affiliation: Pirates

Devil Fruit Ability: Light-Heavy Fruit; Three-Colored Haki: Observation Haki

Height: 168cm, Luck Value: 30, Agreement: 0

After dealing with Michita, Mashiro approached Vivi again and asked, "Do you need me to treat the three of them?" "What?" Vivi wondered if she had misheard.

“I mean, do you need me to treat the three of them?” Mashiro said calmly, pointing to Icarus, Mr. 9, and Mr. Monday lying on the ground.

“Is that alright?! Then I’ll leave it to you.” Vivi Han said, bowing slightly. Mashiro didn’t answer, but gently extended her hand.

Green light flashed from her palm and landed on the three people lying on the ground. Moments later, their wounds disappeared, and they got up in disbelief. "You..." Vivi tried to say something, but was interrupted by Mashiro.

"You, come with me." Mashiro gently beckoned to Michita and said softly. "I, I, okay." Michita was very nervous and fearful as she floated towards Mashiro. She followed Mashiro into the house.

Mashiro randomly picked a room and sat on the bed.

Michita hesitated for a moment, then silently knelt on the ground.

"Can you tell me about your company?" Mashiro asked with a smile.

Looking at Mashiro's beautiful and incredibly gentle smile, Michita felt only fear and said in a trembling voice, "Baroque Works is a secret criminal company. Our ultimate goal is to establish an ideal kingdom and annex Alabasta."

Apart from the vice president, none of us know what the president looks like or what his name is; we only know that his code name is Mr. 0. Our naming rule is Mr. + number, and there are 12 people and one animal in total. The closer the nickname is to 0, the more powerful it is.

Male and female agents of similar strength form partnerships, and the female agents' names are often related to dates. This is what I know.

Mr. 1, Darth Boniface, is a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit user (the Quick-Slash Fruit), a swordsman, and the strongest among us. Miss. Twofinger, Paula, is a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit user (the Thorn-Thorn Fruit). She is Mr. 1's partner and the strongest female agent.

Mr. 2, Bon Clay, is a Paramecia-type Imitation Fruit user and a transvestite. I haven't had much contact with him, but Mr. 5 said he's very strong. Mr. 3, Gal Dino, is a Paramecia-type Wax Wax Fruit user and is the smartest executive among us.

Miss Golden Week, I don't know her real name or her abilities, I only know that she is very young and is a painter.

Mr. 4, I don't know his real name either, I only know that he has a gun that ate a Devil Fruit as a pet. Miss Christmas, a user of the Infiltrate Fruit, can turn into a mouse.

Finally, there's Miss.5 and me. He's a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit user (the Blast-Blast Fruit), and I'm a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit user (the Light-Weight Fruit). My real name is Michita. That's all I know.

After she finished speaking, Michita looked at Mashiro with great nervousness.

Chapter Twenty-One: The Princess's Journey to Reclaim Her Kingdom (Part Four)

"Mr. 4? A gun that ate a Devil Fruit? Could you tell me more about it? I'm very interested in this," Mashiro said with a light laugh.

“I don’t know the specifics, but I heard from Mr. 3 that his pet is a gun that ate the Dog-Dog Fruit in the form of a dachshund, called Dachshund Rasu, which can continuously spit out time bombs,” Michita said thoughtfully.

If guns can eat Devil Fruits, then her Senbonzakura should be able to as well. This might make up for Senbonzakura's weak attack power. Mashiro instantly had an idea.

"Do you know where Mr. 4 is right now?" Mashiro asked softly.

Michita hesitated and didn't speak. She didn't want to betray her companion, even if they were only in name.

"Don't feel pressured. I'm just asking him about the hunting ground gun. I'll let him live, but if I don't get his position, I might kill him when I get to Alabasta. So, in a sense, you saved his life." Seeing Michita's concerns, Mashiro said calmly.

“I understand. Although I don’t know Mr. 4’s location either, I can write to him and ask him to come over.” Michita finally spoke, whether moved by Mashiro’s words or thinking about her current situation.

Let him wait for us on an island then. I remember there was a map of the Alabasta Kingdom on Vivi and Mr. 9's ship. Next stop...

"It should be called Little Garden, let him go there," Mashiro said softly.

“Yes, I understand,” Michita nodded, then walked to the table to the side and began to write a letter.

After writing the letter, Michita went outside, handed it to Icarus, explained its meaning, and then returned to her room. Michita had no intention of running away; she knew perfectly well that escape was impossible.

"By the way, can you tell me why your president suddenly became suspicious and thought there was a mole in the company?" Makoto suddenly asked.

“We don’t know either. We only heard from the vice president that a couple of days ago someone broke into the archives of the Loguetown Navy branch and looked at a lot of files related to Alabasta, but I don’t know the specifics,” Michita said, shaking her head.

What a coincidence! Mashiro first searched for information about the Poneglyphs at the Marine branch in Loguetown, and eventually found information that the Alabasta royal family might possess the Poneglyphs. Then Mashiro focused on searching for files related to the Kingdom of Alabasta.

It seems the Navy really doesn't want to reveal anything about the Poneglyphs, only that she searched the Alabasta Kingdom archives. There's probably some connection between them, which made the president of Baroque Works suspicious.

Soon, the next day arrived. Tashigi woke up yawning.

"So white, so white." There was no response.

Looking around, there was no sign of Shiro, and a large hole had inexplicably appeared in the wall of the house.

Seeing this, Tashigi suddenly remembered what Mashiro had said about something strange yesterday. Could it be... an enemy attack?!

Tashigi instantly drew her Yoru Shigure and cautiously walked outside, where she saw the group of people not far away.

Mashiro, Mr. Wednesday and Mr. 9, the mayor and a red-haired muscular woman, ? Who is that blonde girl?

Mashiro was sitting on a bench, with a blonde girl holding an umbrella over her with one hand and massaging her shoulders with the other. Mr. Wednesday and the others were standing to the side.
