Explore The World (One Piece: Yamato X Male Reader)

Chapter 34: Training

The party between the Minks and the humans continued in an atmosphere of joy, but the crew of the Wild Wind Pirates had left with Cat Viper towards the Road Poneglyph. (Y/N) with Yamato, Kikunojo and Kasa-Obake were finally alone as a real crew and were following Cat Viper to the site of the Poneglyph. The cat had agreed to show the stele to (Y/N) as he thought he could trust him, especially as Kikunojo, his childhood friend, was with him, so all the conditions were present to reveal to them the hidden treasure of the Mink Tribe.

They had left the forest and reached the top of the whale's tail, where there was an entrance with stairs leading to a dark room, and they went down the stairs with lamps to light their way. (Y/N)'s eyes widened at the sight of a Poneglyph illuminated by his lamp, but it was a colour he had never seen before. This Poneglyph was different from the one he'd seen on the Ohara Island, it was red, unlike the classic steles.

(Y/N): So this is a Road Poneglyph...

Kikunojo approached the stele and raised her lamp to light up the wall behind the Poneglyph, she was surprised to see the Kozuki family crest. (Y/N) placed his hand on the red stele with the strange characters, a small melancholy smile appeared on his face at the thought of Robin who would have liked to see this Poneglyph with her own eyes.

(Y/N): If only she were here with me... He was suddenly interrupted by Wano's Yokai, who had decided to accompany him on his journey.

Kasa-Obake: It looks exactly like Wano's. Except for (Y/N), the members of the group were shocked by Yokai's words.

Yamato: What do you mean?

Kasa-Obake: Oh, I forgot to tell you. (Y/N) sent me to make a copy of Wano's Road Poneglyph.

Everyone: What, you made a copy of Kaido's Road Poneglyph?!

Yamato: (Y/N), you didn't tell me you'd sent Kasa to make a copy. How did it manage to do that?

(Y/N): I forgot about the Road Poneglyph. Yes, I sent Kasa on that mission. I gave it the location of the Ponelpyh under the castle, and it used its power to infiltrate and create a copy. Yokai are capable of being invisible to humans, so I took advantage of Kasa-Obake's power to get a copy of Kaido's Poneglyph.

Cat Viper: You've managed to steal a Road Poneglyphs from one of the Four Emperors!

Kasa-Obake: It's thanks to me, don't forget! Without me, he wouldn't have been able to get that copy!

Kikunojo: Congratulations Kasa, thank you for helping my brother.

(Y/N): It's true, you deserve thanks, but do you have the copy of Wano's Road Poneglyph?

The Yokai's mouth opened as it spat out a huge scroll with characters written on it.

(Y/N): That's disgusting...

Cat Viper/Kikunojo: What?! How did it do that?

Yamato: I was surprised the first time it did that too. It can eat everything and keep it in its stomach.

(Y/N): That's why I sent him on this mission, its power is really useful.

Kasa-Obake: Yeah, but remember I'm not your slave, I just wanted to help you a bit. It grabbed the copy of the Poneglyph and gave it to (Y/N), who seemed happy at the idea of finally having a Road Poneglyph with him.

Cat Viper: You can read these characters if I'm not mistaken.

(Y/N): Yes, I learned to read Poneglyphs when I was on Ohara, but I refuse to read Road Poneglyphs at the moment.

Kikunojo: Why? Wasn't your aim to collect them?

(Y/N): It's not just my goal, it's a goal I share with Robin. I refuse to read the Road Poneglyphs and go to Laugh Tale without her, I want to find her and go with her, so in the meantime, I want to collect the copies of the Road Poneglyphs, so that when we get reunited, I'm ready to read them together.
