One Piece: Grand Harem Adventures Chapter 149: Catch-up (2)

Ben walked outside the room. He let Alvida have her eting with the girls. He smiled and thought it is good that the girls trust each other and get along. He did wonder whether his devil fruit played a role with it. He has seen the demon side however he has not really touched his incubus power at all. He thought there may be a passive power which may be helping him.

Ben started walking down the corridor. He walked past the Radio Room and he stopped. He thought about it was ti to make a few calls. It's been a little while since he had spoken to so of his girls.

He walked in the room and sat down. He reached into the drawer and opened it. There was a transponder snail. He picked up the transponder snail and put it on the table. Ben saw it had a red hat and red glasses. He picked up the receiver.

“Hello,” Ben said.

There was no response.

“Hello,” Ben said again. He could see the eyes on the snail moving through the glasses.

“I know you are there BB,” Ben said.

“Don't call that you scum,” Belo Betty replied through the transponder snail.

Ben chuckled. “That's my girl,” Ben said.

“So you finally decided to call after all this ti scum,” Belo Betty said.

“Belo Betty, I am sorry. I should have called you earlier. A lot has happened since you temporarily left us. I should have called you earlier. I am sorry,” Ben said. He was feeling very bad. BB gave a sense of independence and thought she would be fine if Ben did not call for a bit. However she was still a woman.

Belo Betty laughed. “You are so easy but I like you for being caring,” Belo Betty said.

Ben sighed. “I was concerned about you,” Ben said.

“I know and you and only you can call BB,” Belo Betty said.

“What about the other girls?” Ben asked.

“They will have to earn it,” Belo Betty replied.

“As strict as you usually are,” Ben said.

“You have not seen being strict,” Belo Betty teased.

“I don't think I would like to,” Ben said.

“You are no fun,” Belo Betty replied.

“BB, I wanted to tell you that Crocodile has been defeated,” Ben said.

“So he went down, the World Governnt protects those scums,” Belo Betty replied.

“Yes, he was trying to take over a country to find the ancient weapon,” Ben said.

Belo Betty was silent. “So those exist, capable of changing the world,” Belo Betty said.

“Yes, but he did not find it here,” Ben said.

“Sothing tells you know where it is,” Belo Betty said.

Ben smiled. “You can read well,” Ben replied.

“I know a thing about you,” Belo Betty teased.

“BB, the crew has increased,” Ben said.

“Go on and I want nas,” Belo Betty said.

“Kaya, HQ, Alvida, Mikita, BM, Honey, Nojiko, Vivi, Marianne, Zala, Robin,” Ben stated.

“11 in total and all girls. Kaya is right you are a pervert,” Belo Betty teased.

“There is also Sumi, Emma, Alia, Isla and Zara,” Ben added.

“16 and counting and all girls still,” Belo Betty said.

“That na Robin, are you referring to Nico Robin?” Belo Betty asked.

“Yes she is part of my crew,” Ben answered.

“She is known as the Devil Child and leads a destruction in her path,” Belo Betty said.

“Robin had a tough childhood, her parents, friend, island all destroyed by the Marines for researching. She was the only saviour and was wanted from a young age. She has been running for her whole life and never trusting anyone. I will make sure she has a place to call ho, sowhere for her to be safe,” Ben said.

“You just want her in your bed,” Belo Betty.

“I would love for you to be here BB. I miss you,” Ben said.

“You have 11 girls there to keep you accompany,” Belo Betty said.

“They are not BB, all of you are special to ,” Ben replied.

“You sure know how to lt a girl's heart,” Belo Betty said.

“BB, I want you with ,” Ben said. Ben knew she was strong and knew she could take care of herself but Ben missed her.

“I will but I need to take care of a few things,” Belo Betty said.

“I know, the world will be starting to change soon,” Ben said.

“I can tell, you have a role to play,” Belo Betty said.

“We all do, with Crocodile gone they will look for a new warlord to replace him,” Ben said.

“Who will that be?” Belo Betty said.

“Blackbeard,” Ben replied.

“That na does not ring a bell,” Belo Betty said.

“Not now but he will do big things like we spoke about,” Ben said.

“MarineFort,” Belo Betty replied.

“Ben I can tell,” Belo Betty added.

“You promised BB,” Ben said.

“I know but why?” Belo Betty asked.

“I want us to do our own adventure,” Ben said. Ben did trust the revolution army however he did not want them to participate. The death toll and spiral of chaos from it will be huge. If he can control it for the ti-skip then it will be better. Ben knew he and the girls were getting strong however they needed more ti to truly reach the top level. He was not making any progress on haki lately.

“Okay,” Belo Betty said.

“BB, also our ship has been upgraded and you have your own room,” Ben said.

“Upgraded?” Belo Betty asked.

“Yep,”Ben said.

“I am missing so much,” Belo Betty said.

“Yes but I think about you all the ti BB,” Ben said.

“I do as well, Ben,” Belo Betty said.

“Ben, I need to go now,” Belo Betty said.

“Bye BB, I love you. I will call you soon,” Ben said. The transponder snail closed its eyes.

Ben smiled. It felt good to talk to Belo Betty.

Unknown Base

Belo Betty got up from her seat. She was in a room inside the base of the Revolutionary Army. She pulled the transponder snail towards her chest and smiled.

“So that was your lover,” said a woman with tanned skin and long brown hair. Her left arm was a chanical arm. She wore a black shirt, a red tie, a green jacket and black skirt. She was standing in the doorway.

“Ahiru, it's rude to eavesdrop on people's conversation,” Belo Betty said.

“You were acting differently since you ca back from the East Blue, this explains why,” Ahiru said.

“Most n are scum, this one is not as bad,” Belo Betty said.

Ahiru looked at Belo Betty. “So are you planning to leave us?” Ahiru asked.

“I made a promise to him,” Belo Betty replied.

“He must be so man to win your heart,” Ahiru replied.

“He is,” Belo Betty said.

“I want you to be my successor,” Belo Betty said.

Ahiru's mouth was open. “What!” Ahiru said.
