Grandpa Universe In Multiverse

Chapter 254: Retired Pirate King



He couldn\'t complete the sentence as a punch came to his head and just passed by an inch from his head. He stood flabbergasted and shocked.

~What the hell, what was that? I didn\'t even see anything.~ Spandine questioned himself.

"Boy, watch out for that curse. It nearly killed you." Alexander voiced.

Spandine understood the meaning of his words and just shut up. He knew Alexander wasn\'t like other Marines. He would really kill him if he got annoyed, and nothing was more important than staying alive. Even if he fails the task, he could ask for forgiveness by licking the boots of the five Elders for a while.

Alexander looked back at Tom, "Tell me, what\'s your wish?"

"Can I bring my students with me?" He asked.

Alexander looked up at the first floor and two small heads were peeking down from the corner.

"Haha, sure, why not. You can even bring all your equipment. No matter how big it is." Alexander said.

"Then I want to bring my whole personal Shipyard. I made that myself some years ago." He requested.

Alexander nodded at Dobby for him to start working. He then looked back at Spandine, "Go back and tell the Elders that Tom will be working for me from now on and no one messes with my employee. You got that?"

The man nodded repeatedly and ran away with his people. Soon Dobby also returned with a miniaturized shipyard.

"Okay, let\'s go then."

He brought Tom, Iceberg, and Frankie to the Goa Kingdom. A place where he originated from in this world. He had already fortified the island without anyone knowing so it was really the safest place for anyone.

He made him a Shipyard near the docks of Foosha Village. He ignored the main city as it was too corrupted and that was the only place Alexander had let the Goa Kingdom\'s Royal family rule.

Tom looked around the village, the hill and the sea, "This... is very different. But better too. It\'s peaceful enough to let me do all my projects."

"There is a big shop in the village called Kindheart Mall. You can buy anything there, from a small nail to a huge piece of special wood. You can also sell whatever you make to the shop. These shops are all around the world so your ships will be sold to the best bidders. Like always, the shop keeps 10% of the profits and you keep 90%." Alexander explained to him.

"What a convenient thing to have. I had heard about one of these shops in Water seven but never got the chance to visit. It seems I\'ll complete my due visit." He thought.

"Okay, I\'ll leave you to that. Nobody will disturb you here. The whole island is under my protection." Alexander informed him and returned to Phixheim.

...

He appeared in the castle and saw everyone gathered in the garden.

"No no, not like that, girls. Now watch and learn." Douglas spoke and started cutting Roger\'s hair. Besides him were Jenny and Gina.

"Since when did you become a haircut expert?" Alexander asked.

"Boss, If you cut the grass of the whole planet with scissors. The scissor becomes like an extension of your body. I can feel every hair touching the blade. Thank you for teaching me this wonderful art." Douglas thanked.

"Dammit Douglas, I didn\'t do it so you can be a barber," Alexander complained.

"I\'m afraid the damage has been done." He argued.

*Sigh*

"If that\'s the case and you love doing it so much. Then from today, you will trim the hair of every animal in Phixheim with that scissor." Alexander ordered.

Douglas paled at that mention, "Ahaha... I was just kidding boss, I\'m no expert barber."

Both Jenny and Gina pouted, "Uncle Dog lied. Uncle dog bad."

"Haha... Come here my little angels, I\'ll show you how it\'s done."

Then Alexander used Roger as a mannequin and taught them. By the end of the day, Roger was in a new hairstyle with no mustache. His face was magically changed and height increased more.

"Okay, let\'s increase your height a bit more and it\'ll all be done. In the meantime, I\'ll go and save your wife. Amy is best at this stuff so she will teach you acting. Good luck."

...

Alexander appeared back on his ship which was already on its way to Baterilla. When he reached the island he saw some Marine ships already docked there. With the help of a Vivre card given by Roger, he made his way to Portgas D. Rouge in a hurry.

He found out Sakazuki was leading the command of the search. This time Alexander decided to stay hidden. If he appeared in two places with a direct connection to Roger then the world government will find out that he helped her. Which was bad for her so she needed to die. Maybe fake but still.

He reached upon a house with shades down and lights out. Probably because of all the ruckus going outside.

Alexander and Dobby swiftly entered the house. "Portgas D. Rouge?" Alexander asked. She was horrified to see Alexander there.

~It seems Marines have a really bad reputation.~ he sighed.

"W-Why are you here? I-I didn\'t do anything." She stuttered.

"If it was someone else they would have already caught you for lying. Girl, at least learn to do that. Now, introductions are in order. I am Admiral Universe. Roger asked me to save you as his last wish. The Marines will be starting their search soon so come with me." He revealed.

"W-why would you help me?" She doubtfully asked.

"Because you are an innocent person. And no innocent person dies under my watch. Now pack your bags and follow me." He ordered.

For some reason, Rouge felt like going ahead and following this old man. So she quickly gathered her stuff. It was a huge cloth bag tied on her back.

"How the hell can you lift so much weight? You\'re pregnant." Alexander asked with a shocked face.

"Huh, don\'t take me for a weak woman, Admiral." She stubbornly replied.

~It seems everyone with a D in their name is a nutjob,~ he muttered under breath, not realizing he had a D in his name too.

"Okay, follow me." He took her to the Goa Kingdom through the anywhere door and he burned the house behind after leaving a fake body. They appeared in an empty house which he reserved for them.

"I-Is this where I will live? Where are we?" She inquired.

"Goa Kingdom. It\'s under my protection and control. No Pirate or Marine will ever harm you here." He assured her.

She put down her luggage and looked around. Then she heard some footsteps. She thought she was alone and anxiously turned around.

"Haha... How do I look, Rouge?"

She looked at the strange yet familiar man. She felt like she had seen him somewhere.

"Do I know you, Mister...?" She inquired.

"Oh, you hurt me, Rouge. The mother of my child cannot even recognize me." Roger teasingly cried.

Rouge\'s eyes widened, then she compared the man to her late husband. And there were a lot of resemblances. Maybe normal people won\'t be able to recognize but she could. She knew all the small moles on his face and that was enough to make her believe.

Her eyes teared up and she walked to him. Her arms were trying to reach for his face. Once in reach, she started caressing his face as if confirming it was him.

"I-Is it you? Roger?" She asked. Finally tearing up profusely. She had kept her head strong all this time because she knew she couldn\'t afford to be weak. She had to keep little Ace alive. She couldn\'t even mourn for her husband all this time.

Now, the heavens somehow brought her dead husband back. The dam she had created to stop her emotions instantly broke down.

She started to loudly wail and hugged him, "IS THIS A DREAM?"

Roger tightly hugged her, "No, this is not a dream and yes, I am your Roger. Thank goodness you are safe."

"How? I thought they executed you." She asked.

"I thought the same, and then I met a Godly person. Well, that isn\'t important. What the main part is that we will now live like a normal family. This old man here has collected the bounty on my head and gave it to me." He informed her.

"T-Then... Ace will have a family." She happily repeated.

"Rouge, about our child\'s name. I have decided to add something. I want to make it Portgas Maxim D Ace. Without this old man here, I think none of us would be alive right now. We owe him so much." He suggested.

Portgas turned to Alexander and tried to bow. But Alexander stopped her, "It\'s okay, child. You are pregnant, don\'t push yourself. You need to rest. I will give you a nanny bot. She will take care of you." He patted her head.

"B-but what if someone recognizes Roger?" She scaredly asked.

"Don\'t worry, I have used my power so no one can recognize him as Roger, unless I want them to. Only you and I can see him as he is now. On the other hand, you will live with a new identity. You three are my distant relatives from now on and will have Maxim in your names. Garp won\'t recognize Roger and only see him as a man I planted to live with you and safeguard you, so you\'ll have to be a bit less lovy-dovy in front of him and slowly make it look like you fell in love and became a couple. Understood?" He advised.

"Haha... This is going to be fun." Roger interjected and received an elbow to his stomach.

Rouge looked at Alexander with a thankful gaze, "Thank you. I don\'t think I will ever be able to repay this debt to you. I-I want you to be Ace\'s godfather." She blurted.

"Hahaha... That I will be, I\'m sure that Monkey Garp will also be his godfather. So our little Ace will have two godfathers now." Alexander laughed.

~One of them is literally a god,~ Dobby thought while standing behind silently.

"Alright, I\'ll leave you two to settle down. Contact me if you have any problems. Take care."

Alexander and Dobby left like they came and returned to Phixheim.
