One Piece: Gambling to The Top

Waking up the next day, Josh did a few stretching workouts before checking out on the business outside. Thinking about business, Marianne seemed to do a pretty good job, selling her glass plasma painting while hypnotising people to buy them for 200.000 Berries. Josh decided to see the gainings by the end of the month, where he would go to Shandians to collect the Motorcycles, and Carlos should send him another 1.5 Billion Berries.

Josh massaged his forehead. Despite this, he still has a lot of Draw Points, 4400 points. Unfortunately, they are still not enough to get the secret rank item.

After telling the girls not to hunt bounties, Josh stretched his body and then he called Hancock on DenDenMushi, telling her to come to him. It didn\'t take her long time to come since Hancock had seemed to leave the leadership of Amazon Lily to her pregnant sister. Yes, Sonia had thrown up, and Josh would be a father.

Josh had made Hancock not to say a word about that. He had a deep fear that it may bite him in the ass if his enemies, who are scheming, find out.

\'After this, I should visit my old place… I have to see If I let any babe there.\' Josh thought as he lowered his head.

"What are you thinking of, Joshy?" Mikita asked as Josh was sitting, one leg above the other.

"Why it\'s easy to be a Daddy, but hard to be a dad?" asked Josh.

"Did you hit your head or something?" Mikita chuckled. Her face then froze. "Can you sleep at night while thinking about questions like this?"

"Well… Sleeping is actually what I\'m planning to do." Josh said. "You, on the other hand, has to train."

"Train?"

"Yes, today, we\'re visiting a nice space. I\'ll do two sins that I can\'t afford doing for 3 days here." Josh said, lowering his head and smirking.

"Be my guest, surprise me." Mikita stretched her arms up. "Do we get to have sex?"

Josh paused for a moment. "It\'s not yes…"

Mikita broke a sweat as she opened her eyes widely. He is saying no…

"It\'s Hell Yes!" Josh chuckled and flicked on her forehead.

"Kyahaha… you almost got me."

Soon, Robin, Marianne, Kalifa, and Hancock and Melissa joined the group.

"By the way, where is Mari?" Josh asked Hancock.

"She is practising. Why are you asking about her."

"I just thought of a way to help her with her diet, but, meh." Josh shrugged his shoulders.

"Don\'t worry, she is looking like she used to be in the past. Just not as little."

"Right." Josh stood up and walked to the yard, pointing to a large bag.

"What\'s this?" Hancock asked.

There was a delicious smell that filled the air.

"Josh can cook, and he cooked a very large amount," Robin said, Marianne licked her lips, and Mikita was about to eat.

"Now, I remember. He can." Melissa nodded.

"It\'s six months food, now, please, prepare your clothes and we are ready to leave," Josh said.

"Leave?" Hancock asked. "Where are we going."

"Another realm. Please, bring the bags."

After Josh explained to them that has something to teleport them into a space where three days equals six months outside, they understood, and they moved along, bringing their stuff.

Josh felt he has to do this. The world may be getting thrown into chaos soon, and his best bet was to explore the full potentials of his Devil Fruits… plus the money he is making.

Once everything was done, Josh took a blue ticket out of the system. After the girls held his shoulder as he asked them to do, he pressed his fingers on the ticket. Everything and everyone that was attached to him vanished.

-x-X-x-

The training dimension chamber was an endless white space. Josh and his group appeared in the middle of a yard, where there was a large building, with beds inside it. In front of the building, there was a giant fridge, and it had food in it.

"There is a fridge? And I wasted the whole morning cooking." Josh clicked his tongue as he looked at the big bag of food.

"Don\'t want it, I\'ll take it," Mikita said.

"Hey, you can\'t take it all to yourself," Robin said.

"Is it really that good?" Hancock couldn\'t help but ask. "I want to taste Josh\'s food. Let me have it."

"I told you not to call him that."

"You already took the right to call him Daddy."

"Wait, I didn\'t give anyone the right for that."

Josh turned his head, looking at the girls as they started arguing. They were talking so fast that it was hard to keep track of them.

He thought about interfering. But, he stopped.

"Sloth sin."

Josh shrugged his shoulder.

If he wanted to get the two last attributes, he has to be lazy, and he has to eat a lot.

"Girls… don\'t be too noisy." Said Josh slowly as he yawned. "I\'ll eat a bit, and then, I\'ll take a nap."

The girls stopped arguing, looking at Josh strangely as he took his clothes, wore a pyjama, and went to find a near bed. "This one will do it."

"Is he alright?" Mikita asked, almost freaking out.

"I don\'t know… Josh, what are you doing."

Josh was eating a snack as he got next to the bed.

"Starting with my training. Once I\'m done sleeping, I\'ll see if there is time for me to instruct you. Wait, you learnt Haki, right. You can learn things by yourself."

"Mm… those pills help," Mikita said, raising her arm, turning it into a black pitch arm. "Think about something and you\'ll master it. I never thought something like that exists."

"Only I don\'t know it." Said Robin.

Josh opened the system. "You know what?" he used the future vision to get a few specific items.

[89 points]

[Instant Mastery Pill Package x3]

[39 points]

[Instant Mastery Pill Package x4]

[120 points]

[ [Instant Mastery Pill Package x3]

Josh was milking the system for specific items for the cheapest possible price.

He then threw the pills and said. "Hancock take one and train. The others, if you are stuck with some skill, eat this." Not everyone was like Josh, who has talents.

"And you, what you are going to do." Asked Robin.

"I\'m going to connect with my spiritual talent." Josh then let himself in the bed and closed his eyes.

This is the hardest type of training. If he tried to do this outside, he wouldn\'t have enough time.

\'This how life should be. Breathing is my favourite workout.\'

Mikita had a few tears in her eyes. "Please, don\'t teach your ding dong laziness… I need you Joshy."

Josh opened a half-eye and said. "Don\'t worry. My ding dong is always ready."

Josh then slept, he decided to do a few draws for himself when he wakes up. He is in no rush.

The girls turned and walked around, thinking if there are new skills. Kalifa was shooting lightning randomly. Mikita was thinking, same for Robin. Melissa was opening her arm, shooting gasoline aimlessly, trying to think about something.

Hancock picked up a pill, ate it while thinking of Haki Coating. Opening her hand, she found it was surrounded by red lightning.

"I\'m done already," Hancock said, before crawling next to Josh and hugging him from behind.

"Thanks, Hancock, this will help me sleep better."

The others, however, didn\'t share their vision, especially Josh\'s girls. They had known what\'s the cost of being weak once Josh had fought Akainu for them. They aren\'t willing to laze around.

Josh, on the other hand, was training harder than them. He was trying to master his breath, to enter the relaxation state. It\'s a very hard workout, especially if you are not used to sleep alot.

\'the hardest workouts are my type...\' Josh thought. \'Breathing is the top one, followed by eating.\'

AN: For those who loves hard workout arcs and hate shortcuts, you got what you asked for. MC will not depend on the system, and he will breath and eat without its help.. I\'m talking to those who says mc never train.
