After his slight detour to Alabasta, Junbei returned to Quatre Iron Lotus, riding on the Sea Train from Momo Baton to Double Rose, where news of Magnus's completion of his new cursed weapon had been passed on to him by Daisy. Speaking into his Den Den Mushi, with Octavia to his right, Junbei simply grinned. "Rishi Rishi... It's been awhile since I've obtained new cursed weapons." Junbei reported, hanging up the Baby Den Den and turning towards Octavia. The nearly twenty foot tall woman's legs stretched into several carts on the train, luckily, the only persons allowed on these trains were Songbird members. "You need make these trains bigger Jun Jun!" Octavia exclaimed. "Rishi Rishi... Stop being a spoiled sport." Junbei exclaimed. "How was your trip to Alabasta?" Octavia inquired. "Uneventful. Roku was busy but I did deliver her the letter." Junbei said, reaching into his jacket for a cigarette. As the train pulled into the station, Octavia exited first and then Junbei, now surrounded about twenty members of the local Navy. Awaiting among them was Juju, "Hoho... Junbei! It's been awhile." Juju announced, pulling at this now long streaming beard. Attached to his back was his glaive, diagonal sorted fashion. " Old man! It's been awhile! Take me to Dock 66." Junbei stated. Dock 66 was the area made specifically for Magnus to create the cursed items, he'd seem so keenly to muse. It'd taken Junbei's information network to scan the entire underworld for the metals and sigils to make the forge exactly as requested and honestly, it'd give off a creepy aura, as if it had a life of it's own. Nonetheless, Junbei had grown fond of Magnus skills, and he'd definitely wanted to see the fruits of his labour.

As the small force approached the dock, Junbei signalled to the remainder of the grunts to leave them alone and return to their stations. At this point, Juju and the twenty foot tall, Octavia walked promptly behind the Yonko at about six inches apart. In the distance, the '66' mark above the warehouse could've been examined, propping on it's outer build, was the mysterious Blacksmith Magnus. The doorway of the warehouse was opened, a dark aura began to seep from the Warehouse's contents. "Can you feel that?" Junbei stated grinning. "Hoho... I haven't sense such wicked aura since my days on Occulto in my youth. That boy... He's messing with something that's far beyond his understanding." Juju commented. "You sure know how to pick em'" Octavia chimed in, adding to Juju's statement. The distance between the two closed, Magnus simply grinned with a glee, all to familiar to Junbei. It was the same kind he'd make when finishing a new song, and the excitement of being unable to wait for someone important to your life hearing them. "You look like you've been busy dabbling in some interesting activities." Junbei stated, commenting the blood's stench which mixed with the sweat from his labours, left an interesting aroma to be had. After prompting the conversational tone, Magnus extending his hands revealing the final products of his labour, the tonfa he referred to as Golden November.

"Take away Devil Fruit abilities?" Octavia re-exclaimed. "Is such a thing even possible?" the woman tilted towards Magnus, placing her face about three inches away from his, with her head slightly tilted to the side. "You intrigue me. I want you to try out my new candy." Octavia stated, chuckling. "Leave him be, Octavia. I told you, people aren't dolls for you to play with." Junbei scolded her. Sitting onto the ground, cutting her height to about eight feet or so, "I know tehehe... Bad habit of mine." Octavia exclaimed retracting her face from Magnus's own. "Hoho... Never a dull moment with you lot." Juju chimed in. Before he reached for the tonfa, Junbei declared, "To my left is Dr. Octaiva Cobalt, she specialises in Candy Medicines. To my right, is Juju Fall. Brother to the former God of I guess, you can say heaven. They're two of my musical instruments. I guess others would refer to them as my Generals." Junbei stated grinning, as he took the weapons from the man's hand.

Light. The first thoughts that entered into his mind as he grasped onto the tonfa. Spinning them slightly by flipping, Junbei noticed the holes that filled the sleek and black titanium finish. "Rishi Rishi... They're pretty good. I like them. Golden November huh?" Junbei exclaimed. With those words, a slight golden hue began to omit from the two weapons, appearing a small balls of light at first over his shoulders, each light had it's own unique hue. To his right, a dark ball, it was as if you could find an infinite abyss by staring long enough. To his left, a gold ball, which shone as bright of the sun if you stared long enough. For all present, at first, everyone but Junbei noticed the appearance of the lights. "Ummm... Jun." Octavia question, trembling slightly, she was already kind of bugged out by Magnus appearance but she kept it internally repressed. "Yes?" Junbei asked, gleefully spinning the tonfa's in his hand, now in his own little world. "You got... these two balls of light over ya' shoulders?" Octavia stated, pointing at Junbei's shoulders. "Hoho... Those tonfa's seem to hold a curse." Juju commented, opening his eyes, which usual stayed half closed.

Almost instantly, the dark ball disappeared. The golden one remained, well it's hue, at it's core, the ball too had a darkness to it's core. The light got brighter, blinding for a few seconds and then almost instantly, directly in front of Junbei, a woman appeared, about five foot in height, with four wings almost like fan's build, propelling at speeds which allowed her to maintain flight. Her skin was a dark black, almost similar to that of tar or unrefined oil but it had a luminous glow. The fairy, the woman known only to Magnus at this point, who even himself, hadn't fully seen their true form, Goldie, now had her lips pressed against the Yonko's own. "Chuuuu" the woman would hum, as her tongue swarmed around in the Yonko's mouth. His eyes opened wide from shock, the fairy broke away, hovering backwards about four inches. "And with that, we've become partners. Take responsibility for my body, Master. Hehe." Goldie commented. Junbei passed out slightly, any form of romantic contact, he just didn't compute. "Your such a harlot sister." a voice, who'd had yet to manifest herself echoed loud enough for all present to hear. "All it takes is another man to touch your body and your already giving him your all. Bleh. Die. Wench." the other feminine voice declared. "I couldn't help it! When he touched me, it felt so good! Ohoho... Don't mind her Jun Jun. She was actually so excited when you first touched her body. She said it felt so good that she-" Goldie stated, abruptly interrupted from the re-appearance of the black ball, which now manifested in as an all white, fairy, slamming her feet into the jaw of her sister. "Shut up!" Nova shouted, before disappearing again. Flying about three meters, Goldie quick re-appeared next to Junbei, wrapping her hands around his neck. Sticking out her tongue, "Your just jealous I kissed him first." Goldie exclaimed.

Junbei stood in silence, his asexual mind wasn't ready for so much contact, in so quick of a manner. "See. You broke him." Nova shouted in disgust. "Nu-uh! He's fine. Right Jun Jun!?" Goldie said, shaking the Yonko around like a rag doll almost. To Octavia and Juju who had been watching from about a meter back at this point, Junbei's body was moving erratically with no effort from him, almost as if he was possessed. Only Magnus and Junbei at this point could see Goldie's form. "What in the world... is going on?" Octavia asked, now creeped out, revealing a crucifix around her neck in attempts to prayer the situation away. "Hoho... seems those items have a much stronger curse than Junbei's previous items." Juju commented.

♩

Magnus's snap and Goldie's abrupt nickname of 'Jun Jun' snapped the Yonko back to the realm of the living. "Rishi Rishi... You make some pretty interesting things... Magnus." Junbei said, grinning but a slight astonished look on his face could be examined as he stared at Goldie's body from all angles, commencing a circular motion. Clutching her body tightly, "I know I belong to you but... please don't stare so much Jun Jun." Goldie said, now blushing as her abyssal night sky skin showed slightly the embarrassed tint on her cheekbones. "Friendship Slap!" Octavia screamed as she swatted her palm in attempts to swat Junbei, which he timely attempted to counter by going intangible but failed terribly. The impact of the palm sent the Yonko stumbled backwards a few inches, "Rishi Rishi... This could be potentially dangerous. I've gotten so accustomed to dodging by splitting, using these brings me back to my South Blue days now." Junbei declared. Placing the tonfa's onto the ground, almost like magic, Goldie disappeared. Staring at his hand, the Yonko attempted to make his hand intangible and succeeded. Crouching down to pick up the tonfa once again, Goldie's elven figure appeared, this time face to face with Junbei's eyes. "Why would you do that Jun Jun!? Don't ever discard us again." Goldie said pouting.

"Rishi Rishi... Even more interesting." Junbei responded, now talking to himself, chiming out Goldie slightly. "Listen to me when I talk to you Jun!" Goldie exclaimed. "Pft. She's getting ignored. I might actually like this kid more now." Nova chimed in. "Shut up!" Goldie shouted, flailing her wings around in frustration. Hovering over Magnus now, Octavia now leaned down, placing her face next to the man's cheek, about two inches separating them. "You're curse intrigues me. How'd you do it?" Octavia inquired. "Magnus! You asked about what's next for us, I'm thinking about heading to an island called Gubo in the next three days. It's our last island on the route before Fishman Island." Junbei commented. "And now that I've kind of pissed Oceanus off, a situation might break out on Fishman Island. However, my absent presence in the New World is something I need to correct." Junbei said grinning.

♩

As Goldie swung around Junbei's neck, the Yonko placed the titanium tonfa into his waist belt, which also bore Gravitas and Vitas. On the opposite side, to his left, Goldie and Nova now hung proudly, as he his Blitz Sticks rested comfortably beneath his armpits. "Rishi Rishi... Two more. Then I'll be able to perfect that new fighting style." Junbei grinning staring at his tonfa with glee. Goldie was no longer interested in Junbei momentarily, but instead was growling at the other two cursed tonfa that rested on Junbei's belt. "You won't fool me! You might've fooled Jun Jun but I can hear your voice. The curses you possess, you're the true demons in the family." Goldie said growling. "They do seem inherently more evil than we are. You collect some interesting things, Mr.Echo." Nova chimed in. "Oh? Gravitas and Vitas? I found them on a treasure hunt forever ago. Much like you two, they're curses are very much so a pain in the ass. However, I'm guessing, like you two, the drawback is worth it for the reward." Junbei said grinning, winking at Goldie. The fairy's face flushed bright red, causing her to disappearing into the tonfa from pure excitement. "He said he thinks we're worth it Nova! Did you hear!? Did you hear!?" Goldie whispered, flustered.

Octavia's attention was definitely centred around these forbidden curses that Magnus wanted not to speak on. In her journeys across Paradise, she's encountered many diseases that had no cure or illness that had no biological origin symptoms. "Hm. I still want to know one day. However, we've just met, I'd be rude for me to ask such things." Octavia resolved retreating her face from Magnus's body, returning her towering height. "I'm assuming no response means your excited Magnus. I can feel it." Junbei grinned. "Haki? Oh, you mean mantra." Junbei exclaimed, having learned the 'Mantra' terminology from the Skypiea natives, and keeping it as buzzword. "I can teach you it." Junbei said bluntly smiling. "I guess the summarised version... You know what, let's have our first lesson right now. Haki,or Mantra, as the people in the Sky refer to it as, and so do I, is a mysterious energy imbedded in all of us. Think of this power having three completely divided uses. This mysterious power is different for all of us but like I said, three applications are as follows. Kenbunshoku Haki, or Observation Haki. Busoshoku Haki, or Armament and finally, Haoshoku, Willpower. I've been blessed with all three kinds of Mantra." Junbei said putting up his three central fingers as he began to walk towards 'Dock 67', which was pretty much an empty hanger currently. "I'm not sure which or if you even possess any of these three. However, I'm willing to instruct you, even at the basic level. The choice is yours. We can either do it right now or another time on our journey. You'll definitely need it to survive the New World. However, in Paradise, you can take your time and grow. The choice is yours. This crew is all about freedom." Junbei concluded.
