One Piece: Kingdom Building System

Chapter 149: Time Together

New World, Kingdom of Fortis, Royal Palace, Library.

The library is one of the rooms that has a very large size in the royal palace. The library is located on the first floor of the royal palace and inside the library, there are tall and wide bookshelves and then neatly arranged. Not all the bookshelves in the library are filled with books. There are still many bookshelves that are empty and currently, only 1/9 of the entire bookshelf in the library is filled with books.

In the central area of the library, there is a circular area of considerable size. The area can be several tables and chairs that can be used by someone to read a book. Usually, this place is used by royal officials and others to read books they find in libraries.

However, usually, only a few often come to the library. Those who often end up are Shiina Hiyori, Nico Robin, Ars, and also Shakky.

On the other hand, the library is currently managed by a department called the Library Department. This department is in charge of managing the library and also taking care of it. The task of this department itself is not only to maintain and manage the existing library in the royal palace but the public library that will later be built as well as those who will later manage it.

Currently, the leader of the Library Department is Shiina Hiyori.

At this time, precisely in the middle of the reading place, it can be seen that Shiina and Shakky are already there reading a book together.

Shiina reads a book about the history of the kingdoms that exist in this world.

On the other hand, Shakky reads books about ancient weapons that once existed in this world thousands of years ago.

*Tap* *Tap*

The environment of the library is quite quiet, which causes a person's footsteps to be heard clearly in the library by the time the person steps inside this library.

"Hmm?" The sound of footsteps immediately attracted Shakky's attention, on the other hand, Shiina, who was currently focusing on the activities carried out by her, did not know that there was already anyone other than the two of them in the library.

The person who came was Ars carrying a large piece of paper.

At the moment when Shakky was about to greet Ars, Ars immediately gave a hint to be quiet by giving the code of bringing his index finger closer to his lips with a smile. Shakky was immediately silent and stunned because he knew the action that the Ars wanted to do and watched the activity.

Ars slowly walked up to Shiina while placing the papers under him on the floor and immediately using both hands to close Shiina's eyes.

Shiina was shocked by this action.

"Come on, guess who I am?" Ars asked softly.

Shiina, who was shocked by the action before, immediately felt a feeling of joy in her heart. Shiina chuckled softly and said, "Your voice is too clear, Your Majesty"

Ars, who had known his identity, immediately let go of his hand and then took the paper under him while placing it on the table.

Shakky and Shiina's interest was immediately raised looking at the paper.

"What is this, Your Majesty?" Shiina asked softly.

"This is the Map of the Kingdom of Alabasta" Ars replied.

"Map of the Kingdom of Alabasta?" Shiina asked in confusion, "What did you bring her here for? Do you want to keep it?"

"No" Ars shook his head, "I will use this to code the reconstruction plan that we will carry out later in the Kingdom of Alabasta. So that later when meeting with King Cobra, it will be easier to give him an explanation of the reconstruction plan that we will carry out later."
