The metal ship that they had boarded days ago was still sailing through the seas of the New World. The days went by relatively unchanged. Gabriel meditated, ate, drank beer. Cyla battle danced across the open deck, using various props to practice her use of the Ito Ito no Mi. Various plates, wooden logs and other things were seen cut up across the open deck, and even the metallic deck had some cuts on it. Sephiroth had not gotten out of his room in days. He slept through most of those days, and the time that he did not sleep, he spent awake in bed, thinking about the future.
His power had been awakening rapidly. Not long ago, he was on an island that housed the Cipher Pol 2 base. There, he was still weak, at least comparatively speaking. Enough to dismantle a group of bandits, but any notable fighter would have brought him down. There, he had met Cyla and Gabriel. From there onwards, Sephiroth recollected about the time in Sabaody. There, his Haki had already strongly awakened, and he defeated two Vice Admirals, while even managing to get away from a Buster Call with three Admirals onboard. There, Sephiroth had made a name for himself, after he had abducted and roughed up a Celestial Dragon. But it was on Raijin Island that Sephiroth shot to the top of the world. There, he had fought and defeated one of the Navy's greatest powers. Admiral Fujitora. Sephiroth's Haki had completely awakened, and he came to learn that within him, was the strongest form of Conqueror's Haki. He also inherited Admiral Fujitora's Devil's Fruit - the Zushi Zushi no Mi. And with it, came the great power to control gravity and summon meteors from space. Sephiroth was at an all time high. That is, until he came across Admiral Aokiji - an even more experienced Admiral, and one of the strongest. Backed up by two Vice Admirals, Admiral Aokiji managed to push off Sephiroth, making him retreat. Now, Sephiroth was at an impasse. Where to go from here?
Sephiroth finally elevated into a sitting position atop his bed, pushing the sheets off of himself. He stood up and left the room, making his way up toward open deck.
Sephiroth...!
Cyla was quick to notice him, ceasing her training and making her way toward him.
I see you've been busy.
Sephiroth said, looking around the wrecked open deck. By this point, Gabriel noticed Sephiroth as well, making his way toward him.
Finally, you're up.
Gabriel said, Sephiroth nodding.
It's time for us to get back to action. We'll be taking a break from going after the Navy for now. There is something else I want to do...
Sephiroth said, Cyla and Gabriel slightly surprised by his words. They had been all about confronting the Navy for a good few months now, so seeing a change in direction was undoubtedly unnerving.
So, where to now?
Cyla asked. Sephiroth had an answer.
There's an island in the New World that should have all the answers to our questions. All the secrets of our histories. And a man that should be able to help us realize our dreams.
We will be going to Egghead Island.
