"The city entrance fee is 100 Berry for the week, sir, you can pay at that place there."
Rob stopped in front of the city gates that were forbidden by the guards, followed the guard's signal, and paid 100 Berry before he got information on how to obtain permanent residence papers in this place from the accounting.
The accountant told him that the direct method was to pay 10 million Berry to the royal family, and the indirect method, if he was a merchant who could become an official citizen if he worked with the royal family for 5 years.
"We wish you a pleasant stay, sir."
Rob shook his head while thinking about these people's greed and entered the White City, or what is known as the fantasy city out of a snowy country in a fairy tale.
Rob wandered in Flevance for a few hours before finally deciding his next course of action.
If he didn't know the reality of this place, he would have fallen in love with it too, just like any new tourist here.
Outwardly, this place really was like a white paradise, the city was completely paved with white marble, the city looked like a pure paradise.
The people of this city were dressed in the best clothes with happy and carefree smiles on their faces.
This was an extremely wealthy city, there are no poor people here, and the reason was that this city contained endless treasures within it.
These treasures were lead amber.
Rob shook his head again while remembering the tragic fate of this place.
Yes, this was the home of Trafalgar Law! The future worst generation.
Rob was at the moment sitting in the best restaurant here in Flevance, since he came to this place it's okay to taste the kind of food they have, well, even if it was polluted with amber lead, Rob won't care at all.
After eating, Rob went to a government facility in the city and applied to meet the royal family, since he was going to set up his art store here and he would do whatever it takes, he could pay 10 million Berry to get residency papers and buy property here too, he was rich after all.
Wherever the rich are, they will be treated so well, the moment the civil servant heard that this man wanted to buy residency papers from the royal family, his arrogant demeanor changed at first to a very humble one, as if he had turned from an old father to a young son.
Very quickly the royal family was informed and an appointment was arranged with them the next day.
Rob spent another day away from his wife and an entire night alone in the best hostel in the kingdom.
...
The next morning, Rob met a member of the royal family and paid 10 million Berry before signing the residency papers. He could live here forever if he wanted to.
After that, it was not difficult for him to buy a commercial property in Flevance from the royal family.
Now everything was ready to create his third art store.
He chose this place because in his opinion there was no other place in the northern blue suitable for setting up an art store then this kingdom.
Even if he didn't want to enter the Grand Line anytime soon, he still wanted his manga to spread to the Four Seas.
This island is the most famous in the northern blue where people come from everywhere. More than 500,000 citizens live in the White City alone, regardless of the surrounding towns and villages, and it also receives many tourists annually.
And since people here are rich, they are more apt to get attached to new and interesting things like his art store.
The new feature that he got from the system, from the leveling up previously, also contributed to Rob regaining many of the previously lost courage.
[Protection Field: From now on the land where the Art Store is located will be protected by an indestructible protection field.]
With this feature, Rob is no longer worried that the World Government will use the Buster Call to intimidate him.
They could try to destroy something the system said it was indestructible, he wouldn't resist at all.
That was the kind of features he had been desperately waiting for.
"Now it's time for magic."
No one on the street cared about Rob at this moment, because everyone was paying attention to them works, but the moment the void began to distort and the art store building appeared out of thin air, the people who were in a hurry stopped by surprise as they watched the strange building but the modern appears from the void.
Absolute stupor was the only term that could be used to describe their current state.
Even the people who were in their homes and shops came out to see the strange phenomenon happening next to them.
More and more people gathered around the art store, they were not only residents of Flevance but also various tourists from other places in the northern blue or other seas, after all, the fame of Flevance was attracting people from all over the world.
"Hello dear residents of Flevance, I'm Rob, a new resident of your thriving kingdom and owner of this new store, you can count me as an investor! What I'm selling is art..."
Rob began his usual speech, and without any surprise succeeded in presenting himself and his project in the best way to these sick sheep.
The eyes of the people listening to Rob's speech gleamed, the more they heard the more they wanted to enter the store, his miraculous appearance was enough to make them believe every word Rob said.
Now that Rob had chosen this place as the base for his shop he would not have the same fate anymore, it could be said that these people just like the Ohara people don't yet know what kind of existence was sent to save them from a very bad fate.
Among the crowd that happily entered the store, Rob didn't notice two familiar figures, husband and wife still dressed as doctor and nurse.
