The Explorer of the Universe
39

Actually the reason Tanaka went to the rest cabin was so he could return to Earth. He had long since left Earth which made him miss that planet.

"I'd better take a shower here and then change clothes in the wonder room." Think Tanaka.

Without further ado, Tanaka immediately headed for the bathroom, taking off all his clothes, putting his two swords on the hangers in the bathroom along with his clothes.

He always covered the two swords with his clothes while bathing because after all the two swords have a soul so that they have four senses, namely sight, touch, hearing and taste.

There is no sense of taste and they cannot move on their own either.

Tanaka soaks her whole body a little muscular due to the exercises she does every time with warm water coming out of the shower faucet.

The cleaning process only lasted five minutes and he went straight to the wonder room at that time naked.

Of course, two Honjo and Sengo were also brought to the place, but still in a state of being wrapped in dirty clothes.

Tanaka dared to go naked in the wonder room because only he could enter the place, although other people could also enter but with his permission as the owner of the place at this time.

"What clothes are you wearing, this time?" Tanaka murmured while choosing the clothes he would use in the wardrobe.

"I'll just choose this." Tanaka Mumbles.

He chose a gray t-shirt with a screen printing inscription I can do it! it is clearly displayed on the front while the back is plain.

Black knee-length short cargo pants and a hoodie jacket to dress the shirt.

After getting dressed, he took out Honjo and Sengo from his dirty clothes.

"You guys will stay here." Tanaka. "I can't take you where I'm going because I could get arrested by the police for taking you both."

"What is this place, master?" Ask Honjo.

"Hey, where is this? I feel weird about this place!" Sengo.

The two of them had only been brought by Tanaka for the first time to the wonder room so they were shocked when they saw the room.

"It's a wonder room, a special place for me as an explorer of the universe." Tanaka. "It is in this place that I can go to the various universes."

After saying that, he bids Sengo and Honjo to return to his hometown on Earth.

"Earth, Indonesia, the city of Yogyakarta, a deserted place!" Said Tanaka who mentioned the specific location.

He can't go back to his boarding house because he no longer lives there.

After mentioning the specific location, Tanaka immediately moved in just one blink of an eye.

"Where is this?" Tanaka asked as he looked at the place he had appeared after making the move in one blink of an eye.

He was in a quiet, quiet, dark place because it was already night and there were no buildings that a living human could live in.

"It's a lonely place, but not in a cemetery!" Tanaka Mumbles.

He immediately walked over quickly but also cautiously while illuminated by the flashlight light from his smart phone that he had turned on.

"Let's not let anyone see me here." Tanaka. "If anyone sees me, I'll be suspected of muting a corpse or performing a leavening at the grave."

After exiting safely without being noticed by people, Tanaka immediately opened the map application to see its location right then and there.

"This place is far from the city!" Said Tanaka when he saw himself in one of the villages in the roast, mount kidul.

He immediately returned to the wonder room to move in a place not too far from the city.

But when he was going back to the city of Yogyakarta, he thought something.

"Why should I go to my hometown? I can go to another city abroad." Think Tanaka.

Without a second thought, Tanaka immediately went to a city that was abroad, a city that he always wanted to go to when he was a teenager.

"Little gang in Akihabara, Tokyo, japan." Said Tanaka who in one blink of an eye was directly in a small alley flanked by two tall buildings.

Tanaka saw the sky was also already night like the city of Yogyakarta when he came to the city.

"Have I been in Akihabara?" Ask Tanaka to himself.

He looked at the surroundings that there was only one road ahead, while behind him there was only a dead end.

With slow but sure steps, he came out of the small alley which from the alley he had seen a lot of people passing by and very bright fluorescent lights.

"It's not in Malioboro, is it?" Tanaka Mumbles.

When he was at the mouth of the small alley, he could confirm that he was not in Malioboro, but really Akihabara which is known as a sacred area for anime, manga, and anime lovers, Japanese idols and other otaku-related things.

"I'm really in this town!" Thought Tanaka with a happy smile.

He also wasted no time walking through the various areas in Akihabara and at that time Tanaka realized that he could understand what was said by the people in Akihabara.

"What'sthis? How could they speak Indonesian? Even the writing on every store, banner, or pamphlet is in Indonesian." Think Tanaka.

He took a directionless walk down the Akihabara area while thinking about it.

"Could this be the effect of an explorer of a universe whose language or writing is directly transformed into a language and writing known to the explorer of the universe itself?" Tanaka Mumbles.

At the moment he was thinking about that while lowering his head he accidentally collided with a female person who was stopping and chatting with some of his acquaintances.

"Ah, sorry, sorry, I'm sorry!" Tanaka immediately apologized.

"It's okay, next time be careful while walking in a crowded place like this." Tell that woman.

Tanaka just nodded his head and he walked back while thinking about that.

"I can interact with the woman." Tanaka Mumbles. "Wait a minute, I just realized that I can also interact with Luffy and the others."

Tanaka only realized that because he heard Luffy and others use Indonesian so Tanaka was not aware of it.

He stopped in front of a mini market. Tanaka actually wants to go in, buy a sweet drink to fill the energy that has been drained by too many thoughts.

However, he has no Japanese money and even entered the country illegally without a passport. If there were police who suspected him and asked for his passport of course, Tanaka could not show it and ended up arrested on charges of illegal immigrants.

"Am I going back to the world of one piece?" Think Tanaka.

That thought he immediately put away because he wanted to still explore the holy place even longer.

He went back for a walk and this time he entered some shops selling otaku products. He could only look around not buying or touching it for fear that when he touched it, it would break and Tanaka had to buy it.

For more than three hours, Tanaka took a walk in Akihabara until he finally felt satisfied from exhaustion and decided to return to the world of one piece.

He was looking for a quiet place in order to return to the wonder room and go to the world of one piece.

"Go to the wonder room." Tanaka said when he found a quiet place.

Without wasting any more time, Tanaka took Honjo and Sengo to hang on his right and left waist.

"Why have you been so long? I'm tired of being in this place!" Sengo is ignored by Tanaka.

"Are we going back to that world, Master?" Ask Honjo.

Tanaka nods her head and she returns to the world of one piece, precisely in the cabin of the man aboard the Going Merry.

Arriving at that place, he immediately came out, walking towards the top of the deck.

The atmosphere on the Going Merry ship was very quiet, there was no more Nami or Usopp.

"Where are they?" Tanaka asked who did not see the two cowards on the Going Merry ship. "They both asked me to stay, but they both left the ship."

He decided to get off the ship and walk through the ancient forest. On getting off the boat, Tanaka noticed two trees that had broken unnaturally.

"Oh! Were Nami and Usopp taken by one of the giant humans?" Think Tanaka.

"Giant? What's in the woods where giant humans live, Master?" Ask Hanjo.

"No, there are only two, the name I forgot, but they came to this island because they were fighting to determine who was the strongest." Tanaka. "And that fight has been going on for over 100 years and no one has won yet."

The man was getting deeper into the forest and more and more wild animals he encountered and attacked him. Of course, Tanaka knocked them unconscious or threw them away.

He really had no desire to kill any living thing that was not to be made food by him.

"This place is really very dangerous! If only I didn't have the strength of the force, I wouldn't have dared to take a walk in the forest like this." Tanaka Mumbles.

Moments later, Tanaka discovers a strange building that should not exist in a wild forest like the little garden.

The building also looks like it was built with candles. "Isn't this the building that belonged to a Baroque Works agent who had the ability of a demonic fruit that could control candles?"

He approached the building, knocking on the door before entering. "They! Is there anyone inside?" Call Tanaka.

"Who?" Ask the person in the candle building.

Tanaka felt familiar with the sound inside the candle building.

"What is Sanji?" Tanaka murmured that opened the door of the candle building and saw Sanji was relaxing while drinking a cup of tea with a snack on the table.

"Oh, it turns out Tanaka, I think the owner of this strange building." Sanji.

"What are you doing in this place?" Tanya Tanaka who walked over to Sanji and sat on a chair that was also made of wax.

"Just relax, please drink the tea, it's so good." Said Sanji who was like the owner of the building.

Tanaka poured the tea in the teapot into a cup and then drank it.

"Indeed very good, my tiredness quickly disappeared." Said Tanaka who drank it one more time and then put it on the table.

Tanaka asks Sanji about the strange building they both occupy at this time.

"I don't know, I only found this building while hunting animals." Sanji Clear. "When I came in, there was no one but this drink and this food."

Tanaka nodded his head and thought that the owner of this building was fighting with Luffy and the others.

Moments later, the sound of his phone a world of one piece, denden mushi or snail phone rang.

The sound came from inside the box and Sanji immediately took the box, opened it and saw the mushi denden that was sounding.

"How can a living being be used as a means of communication like a cell phone?" Think Tanaka.

Sanji took the call. "This is a fucking restaurant, do you want to book a place?" Sanji asked with a flat face expression.

Tanaka just laughed softly at Sanji's behavior.

"Don't joke around stupid! Why haven't you given me a report yet?" Said the person who called.

Tanaka saw the expression of the phone snail that was the same as the expression of the caller.

"Report?" Ask Sanji. "Ah, yes, with whom is this?"

"It's me Mr 0." Answer Mr 0 who is none other than Crocodile, the leader of the Baroque Works organization.

Sanji and Crocodile had a conversation while Tanaka casually drank tea and ate a snack on the table.

"good? Good ... currently the unluckies are heading to your place to bring proof of your mission as well as the shipment." Crocodile.

"Unluckie? A shipment?" Ask Sanji.

At that moment Tanaka noticed two creatures standing at the window. The two creatures are owls and seals.

They were both members of Baroque Works who served as Intel and also as confirmation of missions run by failed or successful Baroque Works.

The seals immediately attacked Tanaka with gloves that had pointed parts and the owl attacked Sanji who was still on the phone with Crocodile.

Tanaka managed to evade the seal attack and hit the seal on the head with Honjo still in the sheath and knocked the seal unconscious.

While Sanji managed to kick the owl and make him faint.

"Hey what's going on?" Ask Crocodile.

"Oh, it's okay just a small matter, it turns out that that jerk straw hat is still alive and I killed him again."

"Still alive you say?" Ask Crocodile. "Don't you say you've been following my orders?

"Well, I've finished him off before, but it turns out this straw hat doesn't give up easily." Answer Sanji.

"So you gave me a false report?" Ask Crocodile.

"If you take it that way, it doesn't matter, but I've definitely finished it off, so there's no need to send anyone anymore." Answer Sanji.

Crocodile then gave the order to immediately return to Alabasta.

Sanji hung up the phone and Tanaka asked, "Is that really Crocodile?"

"Perhaps, I don't know for sure, but in claiming to be Mr 0." Answer Sanji.

Tanaka just nodded his head and the two of them decided to leave the ruined building to meet the others.

Before leaving the building, Tanaka retrieves the Eternal Pose carried by the seals and vultures.

Tanaka and Sanji did not take long to meet with Luffy and the others.

"Nami! Vivi! And those fools!" Call Sanji who just appeared together with Tanaka.

"Yes, Sanji! Tanaka" Luffy said.

"You're okay, right?!" Ask Sanji.

"Unfortunately, when we don't need it, you two show up without guilt!" Usopp.

"What's? Why are you angry, Usopp?" Ask Tanaka. "I should have been the one who was angry because you and Nami were suddenly not on the ship, leaving me alone! You two asked me to be on the ship with you both."

"Me and Usopp have been calling you many times, when Broggy showed up and took us with him, but you didn't show up." Obviously Nami.

"really? Maybe I really slept so well I didn't hear your voice." Tanaka Ngeles.

Meanwhile, Sanji asked as he saw Broggy and Dorry "Who are they?! What is your name Mr. 3?"

"Why do you know Mr.3?" Ask Nami.

"Your mom is so pretty!" Praise Sanji with lope-lope eyes when she sees Nami who only uses BH tops because her clothes are burned due to a fight that took place a while ago.

Sanji then clenched his hands in front of his chest. "You're really exciting!" Sanji who wants to faint.

"You got beat up?" Nami asked as she clenched her hands in front of Sanji's face.

"Calm down, dear Nami. Then you can get the flu! Here, put it on." Say Sanji while taking off his suit and putting it on Nami.

"Thank you." Nami.

"And earlier, I spoke to Mr. 0 through Den Den Mushi!" It was Sanji who surprised everyone except Tanaka, Doryy and Borgy.

"You talked to the boss?!" Vivi

"Yes, I found a base in the middle of the forest. He assumed I was Mr. 3, so I told him I'd finished you off." Sanji.

"So, he already thinks we're dead?" Vivi.

"We are finally free from the pursuit, but we can't go anywhere!" Usopp.

"Can't go anywhere? Do we have any other business on the island? I already got this thing." Tanaka said while showing the Eternal Pose he took from the two Intel Baroque Works agents.

They all dropped their jaws, except for Sanji, and the two giant humans.

"What's wrong?" Ask Tanaka who doesn't know anything.

"That's the Eternal Pose to Alabasta!" Luffy said happily.

"Yatta!!" Said Usopp who cheered happily.

"We can sail again!" Said Luffy who was also cheering happily.

"Yatta, good job Tanaka!" Nami.

"Thank you, Tanaka!" Vivi hugged Tanaka. "I was worried!"

"Damn you Tanaka! I'm envious! I'm really envious!" Sanji said in annoyance.

"Yosh, everybody. Let's have a senbei party!" Luffy.

"Now, Luffy! If it's only three, we can't party!" Usopp said, to Luffy's surprise.

"It's not time for that, is it? Let's go, captain! We don't have time to relax!" Nami Pinta.

"yes too! Hey, you!" Sanji said to Zoro. "I hope you don't forget the hunting race, huh?"

"Yes, if that's me winning! I caught this rhino!" Said Zoro while showing the size of the rhino he caught.

"Rhinoceros? It can be eaten no?" Ask Sanji.

"Of course!" Zoro.

After they all bailed on the two giants, they walked towards where the Going Merry docked.

Arriving there, Zoro and Sanji bring the animals they hunted. Zoro gets an ancient rhino and Sanji gets a T-rex.

"Not a fuss, is it? Both of them look good!" Luffy.

"You just shut up!!" Say Zoro and Sanji at the same time.

Zoro and Sanji continued to argue until Nami finished their debate by hitting both of them on the head.

Nami asked to cut some parts to make food stock, the rest was left so alone.

Sanji obediently does what Nami says, while Zoro is still looking for support if he wins.

"Hey, Tanaka! Look where I won, right?" Ask Zoro.

Tanaka just lifted both shoulders and gave a flat facial expression that explained that he was not interested.

"Damn it!" Said Zoro who was upset and then turned to Usopp. "Hey, Usopp! I won, right?"

"I'm not interested." Usopp.

"Can't it be considered balanced?" Vivi.

"In the race there is no balanced word!" Zoro.

"Quick do!" Nami garang said.

"Good!" Zoro.

After cutting off some parts of the two hunted wild animals, Sanji brought the flesh of the two ancient animals to a storage area.

Tanaka also helps her because she has no job.

While Zoro lifted the anchor and the ship Going Merry began sailing to get out of the canal.

When they were going out of the river, they saw Dorry and Broggy who were like they were going to take us away.

"Trust us, keep sailing straight ahead! Whatever happens, keep moving forward!" Pinta Broggy's.

"All right!" Luffy said easily.

Zoro and Usopp were confused by the two giants' statements.

"This is our farewell!" Broggy.

"Someday I hope we meet again!" Dorry.

"Surely." Broggy.

The Going Merry had entered the ocean and at that moment suddenly appeared a giant goldfish-shaped sea monster.

"Something's up!" Ask Usopp.

"Whatis that? Goldfish?" Ask Luffy for fun.

"Th-Giant goldfish? Se-Looks like I've heard of it!" Usopp.

"Hurry up and hold the wheel! Hurry up, we can be eaten! Usopp, hurry!" Nami.

"Can't! Keep going, don't you, Luffy?" Usopp.

"Yes, of course!" Luffy.

"Don't be stupid! It's not like when we met Laboon!" Nami.

"I already know. Relax, dong. I'll give you the last senbei!" Luffy then threw the rice cake at Nami.

"No need!" Nami said and caught the rice cake with her hand. "If we don't change the direction of the ship, we'll..."

"Nami, give up this time!" Zoro Pinta.

"We'll stay straight ahead! As the captain ordered!" Tanaka Assert.

Nami could only bite into the rice cake while crying. The ship began to enter the fish's mouth.

"Luffy, we can trust them, right?" Ask Sanji.

"Yes!" Luffy's.

"You crazy? Are we really going straight to that monster?" Ask Vivi.

"No, it's too late!" Nami.

Once the boat is inside the mouth of the fish, the fish closes its mouth. We sailed straight ahead.

"Forward, forward!" Usopp said in tears.

"What are you talking about? We've been eaten by tau!" Nami garang said.

"Forward, forward, forward!" Luffy.

Then suddenly there was something that made the goldfish perforated so that the Going Merry ship could come out of the goldfish, continue sailing on its way.
