2 "The Dancer of Racepshi"

-----This is the Novel equivalent of the start of GXP episode 20--------

The Planetary scale space known as the Big Daruma floated in space. But it wasn't alone, there was a satellite orbiting that looked like the ships moon in scale.

It was "Rasepshi" a ship that provided amusement and entertainment around the galaxy.

usually it was colored with luxuriously bright lighting, but now it was in a rather muted state with only minimum sign lighting.

The reason for that was to keep the Big Daluma from being found.

But once entered, Racepshi was a fancy entertainment hall and as flashy as it's reputation would have one believe. It was a place like Earth's Broadway + Las Vegas+ all the world festivals all in one place.

"Again! Again! I'm gonna hit it big this time!"

In one of the big banquet halls in recepshi, the good luck fleet ships' crews and Daruma Guild' s executives had a lavish feast.

Seiryo and other Space pirates were crowded around a variety of gambling machines such as slot machines and video poker while receiving drinks from hostesses who were dressed in colorful attire.

The crews of the good luck fleet ships were on cloud 9, they were drowning in a mountain of coins, and Seiryo the captain of the fleet had the largest mountain so far.

"Truly, It's our lucky day! Isn't that right, captain!" Daruma was in a rare good mood.

"Ha ha ha, this is pretty good luck I'll say."

"With this luck,who needs to be afraid of Seina Yamada's bad luck!"

"Ha ha ha! It was a great idea to rent Recepshi."

Seiryo grew tired of slot machines and roulette he took a glass of sake from a hostesses tray, he looked around the large spacious hall, the curtains and layered seating and tons of spectators gave the impression that it was like an opera house and that it was a thousand times bigger then it really was. it felt as if he was lost in a giant city.

Currently, at each of the leisure facilities of Recepshi, about 50 million people were gathered to watch the Big Daruma's executives and the various space pirates who had been invited from various places.

"It's all thanks to you captain Seiryo."Daruma took a glass in the same way, he felt excited and thirsty. He gulped the entire glass at once.

Daruma noticed a box seat above his line of sight, one of which was the size of a gymnasium.

----------------------------------------------------------

"I was saved because you reached out to me, Daruma."

In the box seat for VIP guests that overlooked the venue, Ekushito Racepshi who was the general manager of Recepshi was hosting the Vice President of the DarumaGuild.

Ekushito was a stout man who looked like big fighter and had a stiffer appearance then The vice president of the Daruma guild who was rather slender. He looked like more of a Space Pirate then him. However his soft spoken words and intelligent gaze did not feel intimidating.

"When you came here, the head of Seniwa passed away, the whole Galactic Federation is in mourning, and our business crawled to a stop."

"It was a pity for them, but it's good news for us."

The GP had lost the strong charisma of Mikumo Kuramitsu and would likely soon erupt with various internal problems that were suppressed until then by the existence of Mikumo.

"The succession battle, internal division, confrontation ... because it's such a huge organization, it will continue to struggle to function for quite a while, don't you think?"

"And thanks to that you can rent Racepshi " The deputy president was satisfied.

Recepshi had a maximum capacity of 300 million people that it could accommodate on the ship. when you include temporary guests who arrived outside such as hotel ships and private ships, the maximum capacity was ten times that. It was difficult to rent out facilities of that size on an individual basis.

Of course there are companies and countries who could, but it was difficult to monopolize the Rasepshi which was said to be a treasure of the galaxy. The reason why Recepshi was called a treasure was that it housed a huge accumulation of all kinds of art from the galaxy.

the Recepshi was ancient, its existence had been recognized long before the establishment of the Galactic Federation, and there was a rumor that it predated even the great prehistoric civilization.

It didn't belong to Galactic Federation, Renza Federation, or any pirate Guild, it kept complete neutrality, it was a rare thing that was accepted by each of those organization as well.

Moreover, unofficially it had the right to navigate freely and was permitted into any area of space as long as it declared it in advance.

Taking advantage of that, the Recepshi had accumulated a huge amount of information and there was another reason they were popular ... ....

-----------

The bustle of the hall grew calm, the gaze of everyone was directed to a huge stage.

"... ... Oh! The show is about to start"

Daruma, who noticed silence, opened a bottle of alcohol he had and looked at the stage just like the others.

Swoosh ....

Maiko appeared onstage, making every mouth drop, she disappeared leaving behind a woman who immediately appeared in the center. She was a high-ranking dancer called Maihime, the dancing princess.

the dancing princess began to dance slowly and quietly.

Because of the large venue, she looked appeared to be the size of a bean to those farthest in the audience, but in the next moment the eyes of the audience all became nailed to her.

Then screens like petals floated around her and projected the the maiden who was dancing in a huge size.

Sighs of deep admiration leaked out from the audience.

her outfit changed to various shapes and patterns according to music, occasionally covering her whole body transforming into huge flowers and animals.

Sometimes quietly, sometimes intensely, the colorful variety was amazing .

When expressing flowers, any sign of her being a person disappeared as she became the flowers and she became the animals when expressing animals.

-----------------------

"She's stunning ... Who is that dancing princess?" the Vice president said as he watched the stage

"she is the eighth daughter of my house."

"Ohhhhhhhh,"

"Is that Makihi's daughter? I'm pretty sure her eighth daughter was still child when I Last came ...."

Recepshi 's dancers were renamed by rank.

The bottom rank was called a Wakko and they couldn't go on stage yet.

The next was called a Dancing lady or Maiko, they were allowed to go up to the stage after finally becoming this rank, but only in a supporting role.

Maihime, or the dancing princess rank would become the main character of the performance.

And all were managed by Makihi.

"Why? Do you want to get her before someone else does?"

"No, no, no... I'm just humbled .... she is truly spectacular - there's no doubt that she will grow up to be a top performer celebrated wherever she goes, truly she is Makihi's daughter."

Vice president smiled as he watched her dance.

"I'm sorry" Ekushito said with a smiling expression, but he was definitely not humble in nature.

If her mother Makihi was dancing, all the audience would have been so enthralled they would have forgotten to breathe, and the fact that her daughter was already almost there was evidence of her talent.

The reason why Recepshi was called a treasure was it's actors and actresses and group dancers who had outstanding skill and charm with "Makihi" being the best of the best.

If one became a member of the Mai class, it meant they had outstanding skill that could command even one's own dance partner's attention with their dance.

--------------

"... Well then, is that the daughter who's had the relationship with the man from the Tatsuki family?" Minaho Masaki said she was in one of the VIP rooms overlooking the stage in the area that Daruma had rented out.

To her side Washu Hakubi was eagerly watching the stage.

This situation was another one that could only happen on Racepshi.

Racepshi which was able to move back and forth among the various coalitions, is also a place where a wide variety of spies conducted business.

This place, where extraterritorial rights were authorized by every organization, was used as a place for exchanging information on the back end of things, and it was also used for informal meetings between heads of state who opposed each other.

The result was that Washu and Minaho were situated in the same room that Daruma was renting out. In addition, it was technically Washu's first public appearance in 5000 years, it wasn't surprising but confusing, but was accepted by familiar customers of Recepshi.

Trouble here was never permitted, security guards were dispatched from each organization to protect and secure everyone. And of course Racepshi also had it's own strong security organization.

However, considering the importance of this place, there was never any people who caused trouble.

"Yes, there's no mistaking it" The woman who came in to talk to Washu was "Makihi" herself.

She appeared to be in her late twenties, her spine was well aligned and she had well-balanced limbs, but she also had a quite athletic figure which is quite buff when she was seen up close.

She had a figure like a stage actor and her beauty shined even more the farther away you got from her And above all she had a charm and atmosphere common to those like Seto, Washu and Gyokuren.

"However, there is no record that a child was born, and the time that two of them where together was short, and it was quite a long time ago ..."

Minaho breathed a sigh of confusion.

"There's no guaranteeing though that the royal family's uhm shall we say ... genetic information wasn't leaked out ....there is a possibility that a child was born using it"

"hehehe... so your saying it just leaked out, right?" although Minaho was being crude, a sample of sperm of the royal family had been recovered and some had been used, it was inferred that someone had used it to undergo in vitro fertilization and had an infant.

-------------

OK so this is going to make no sense to anyone, They are talking about Palty Jurai's mother from Paradise war (aka PART 3 of GXP) the next few book establish the characters of that stories early origins actually, loretta runs off from racepshi to live a life of crime with alan and her sister is Alea Balta.

--------------------

Romance with dancers and customers was not uncommon, sometimes there were also stable relationships and talks of engagement. However, they are hidden in Recepshi and never take place in public. It wasn't unprecedented given the beauty of the dancers.

"Hmm the atmosphere here sure is intoxicating not to mention the liqueur.... I can see how a dancer of Recepshi and Jurai's Prince ended up together."

"It's a top-notch combination ... it's perfect for romance."

"...... Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha well the information we were given was provided anonymously anyways, so we weren't sure at first but our initial survey confirmed it ..."

"I'm suprised you're concerned with such things when Daruma is right in front of you, Didn't you see the big Daruma right outside?"

If they had a royal ship there, they could have solved various problems of theirs all at once, but what you see or hear in racepshi, stays in Racepshi, it's an unspoken rule to keep to yourself.

In this case, the information that they were allowed to bring back was only the confirmation that the Prince's genetic information had been leaked.

Minaho would have to perform a random jump away from the Big Daruma and Recepshi or be escorted off by an escort ship owned by racepshi and sent to another place without being sure of where it was located. It wasn't permitted for her to leave by any other method,

and contact with Space Pirates and communication to the outside was strictly prohibited.

"Although the Daruma Guild has reserved the hall, there are a lot of other guests who have been staying here for a long time now, and there are plenty of things here for you to do and we have many other parties and events to go to." makihi smiled

They would have been welcomed anywhere else

"That's a nice offer, but I have to go back to do my report soon."

To be honest, she was interested in watching the performance but she had to go finish the follow-up survey.

But, above all, she was afraid to linger around a massive gathering of people from the Big Daruma.

"That's a shame, we shall will arrange for your drop off immediately."

Makihi didn't push it any further, she rang a crystal bell that she picked up.

Then, two women in unique maid clothes came in immediately.

"Ms. Minaho, would you like to see " Recepshi " before you leave?"

"Is it a Third generation like I heard ... ...?"

There were no people who wanted to cause trouble at Recepshi, but various unexpected situations occur when you are navigating the universe.

there are those who are ignorant and not in any major organization, and those who do not know the history or status of the Recepshi and sometimes those who intend to target it,occasionally there were people who attacked Recepshi.

And there are other things that could happen, natural phenomena and creatures other then humans.

For that reason, Recepshi had its own armaments including equipment and personnel.

Washu was here to strengthen their royal tree.

"It would make it happy to meet one of it's sibling's masters."

"Shit ... .... fine, I understand" she went with the maids and left the room after bowing.

"... ... wooo" Minaho let out a sigh after leaving the room. To be honest, Minaho was relieved a little from getting out of that place.

(She seems like she's pretty drunk ... ....) Makihi thought.

Makihi was the a kind of woman who's presence got on other's nerves but in a different way from Washu and Seto. It may be better to say that she was a hard one to keep one's eyes off of.

Her beauty and charm were almost supernatural and Of course it was fully demonstrated when she was dancing. Even Minaho found it hard to resist that charm. Needless to say it was pretty overwhelming for some to be in the same room as her.

--------------------------

"Whew...it's true what they say meeting a princess of Jurai is a scary thing." Makihi murmured with the same kind of expression that Minaho made when she was going away.

In that sense Minaho was also a princess as she was the granddaughter of the Juraian Emperor, and a woman who had served as an adjutant to Seto for many years. it's safe to say she felt the same level of intimidation but for a different reason.

"How is that girl still single? ... ... Naja is terrible."

"Her title as an Assistant of Seto no doubt what's keeping her from marriage ... I wonder why she doesn't just find a young gentleman who doesn't know her identity?"

"I don't think that would help either ......"

"It's a real tragedy wouldn't you say?"

"Oh, by the way are you ready to see those now?"

Washu had brought archives of data on the stories and the theater from Earth (From past to the present) with her to Recepshi.

"This is only part of it, but it's quite interesting, I hope you enjoy learning about this early stage civilization."

"You're the best. Thank you, I'm sure I'll enjoy reading it... ...."

At that time, the door was knocked on and Maya, the eighth daughter of Makihi who had been dancing on the stage so far entered with a single boy.

Makihi 's atmosphere changed completely to that of a mother.

"Oh, Maito, have you finished doing the checks yet?" Washu 's asked the boy, Maito shyly snapped to his mother to hide behind her. Although he was 12, he had a delicate appearance like a fairy, and seemed to be less than ten.

"Ms. Washu, I'm honored to meet you, I'm Makihi's daughter, Maya, I saw you from the stage so I came to greet you" Maya bowed elegantly, she had other sisters but she was the most similar to Makihi.

"Oh, Nice to meet you, But shouldn't you be on stage?"

"My part of the performace is already over ..." She could still see the performance going on outside the box.

"Hmm ... well I appreciate your performance."

"Thank you" Maya said

Everyone's eyes moved to Maito.

"So, today's interviews are over?"Makihi asked

Recepshi had many job seekers, as well as theater staff, and stakeholders who come for the performances. about 30% of Those who resided in Recepshi were people involved in the performances, and those who came to the perform after contracting with Recepshi.

Maito had the power to see talent especially related to entertainment. from how he described it he could see something like a glittering aura around people, it didn't detect the skill of a person, but rather their buried talent and qualities. Maito 's ability was unique. But no matter how glittery you were, it wouldn't last a lifetime.

Loss of interest in acting and aging, can keep one's passion for performance from being maintained, and cause exhaustion of one's talent. Talent is truly an ambiguous and dangerous thing. The quality of talent is also important, but if the magnitude of one's reserves is big, they will stay on the front stage for a long time.

However, Maito's talent was used at the time of scouting rather then during the interview.

Those who come to the interview to work at Recepshi were left to another interviewer.

However, among the many ordinary guests coming there, there were a few buried gemstones.

It was Maito's job to uncover that talent.

"Among the customers, was there anyone to worry about?"

"... .... Minaho, Washu and Seiryo."

"Oh ... ... no one else?" Makihi asked Maito shook his head.

"Well this is embarrassing, I doubt we would be able to scout any of those people"

Makihi glanced at Washu. Maito also sent an innocent gaze to Washu. Washu giggled.

"I am sorry I can't meet your expectations, but why don't you see if the Tennan family can do something?"

"They may be perfect as talent, but their family-specific character would turn any tragedy into a comedy."

"oohoohoohoo ... that's for sure ... "

"Imagine the refunds we would have to give."

No one could escape from the influence of the Tennan's peculiarity.

Getting them involved with anything was equivalent to putting spicy ingredients into a dish.

"uhuhuhuhuh" Waku giggled at the thought as Makihi got wrinkles between her brows thinking about it.

"Maybe we should change our standards Maito."

"It's Because ..." Maito began to say but Maya touched him and he stopped.

"Well, recently I've noticed they have, haven't you?"

"Yes, when I took him out of the galactic federation and he saw those people ... he's been a bit off ..."

"The four of them, they were people with a very unique atmosphere, and one was an especially beautiful woman who had a terrible miasma."

"Oh?"

"Since then, Maito's judging criteria have been all wrong"

"Hey, are these by any chance the people you saw?"

Washu started up a monitor and Gyokuren and the other 3 girls in her group were projected.

Maito who saw it stared at it as one would when looking at an idol.

"Oh, how did you know?"

"They work for Naja, currently they're assisting a child named Seina Yamada."

"Seina Yamada!" Maito who heard the name of Seina looked even more enthralled.

"Are rumors transmitted to the people of Renza true?"

"well there's a terrible rumor among the pirates mainly that many have headed in the direction towards renza lately, rather than the federation... ... of course that makes sense ... doesn't it it? There's less risk." Makihi said.

"Washu, are you acquainted with Mr. Seina Yamada?"

"I don't know everyone just because they're from Earth but in this case yes, he is a childhood friend of the owner of the house I live in."

"It's just a rumor, but I that Mr. Seina Yamada's ship was built like Washu's Ryo-ohki , ..."

"Yes, I left my daughter in his care."

"Did you use Widow ....?"

"Why do you think that?"

"Because it would be a dramatically ironic twist of fate for her."

Although Recepshi was a place where lots of information leaked out, it was top secret that Widow's astral core was used for Fuku.

However, Makihi felt that it would have been dramatically ironic if that was what happened, rather than guessing it from various information.

"............" washu said nothing

"Well I hope he's treating Renza's princesses well ... ... you've sure given him a marvelous edge ... ...."

Makihi who judged Washu 's silence as positive affirmation said with a sigh.

Maito pulled on his mothers sleeve and looked up at her a look asking her to say something for him.

"Oh, yes, I would like to ask something about Seina Yamada ... ..."

Makihi launched a monitor. There was an enlarged photograph that was extracted from a news video there.

"That's Seina ... with Amane and Kiriko, right?" As the name came out from Washu, Maito smiled "Are you interested in knowing more about them?" Maito nodded to Washu's question.

"well, Amane Kaunaq is a famous person, so he know's about her but for Kiriko-san, well her biography is a bit ambiguous ... ...."

"That girl's history is kept secret by Naja."

"If you don't mind, would you please teach us more about Kiriko-sama?"

"... Well, what can you tell me if I do?" Washu said with a bitter smile, Makihi and Maito's reacted with a similarly interesting expression.

----------------------------------------------------------

"Chhh! Why do we have to stay behind?"

Alan said as he stared at an operators panel full of monitors in one of the good luck ships that was moored in the docks. Next to him Barry was looking at the video relay of the stage with an entranced expression.

"Hey, are you listening?" In frustration, Alan kicked Barry 's chair.

"What's the problem? We can still see the performance from here." Barry unusually disputed back. "Besides, Cohen and Komachi's deputy are not even getting to watch this relay they're on-duty doing a mission, if they complained, they would be punished."

Recently, Alan was almost never with all of his group. It was a measure to avoid the adverse effects of having the three of them together.

Barry and Cohen 's reliance on Alan had dissipated and they were slowly regaining their original seriousness.

But Alan, as usual, still complained but his power to do anything about it had dissipated.

"Who cares! Komachi gave us a job and we should be grateful. Where here to work off our debt. That's all we need to do! "Barry said to Alan as he watched seiryo on the monitor

"And The best way to do that is to bet our money! Too bad we can't go over there without permission."

"I don't think Komachi will give you permission, and you'll be punished if you go out without permission ..." Barry said.

"Maybe if I cut her in on some of it she'd let me."

"........." Barry said

"good luck with that... you should go give it a shot. I'm going to stay behind and work."

"What's the matter, Hey! It's a chance for our debt to disappear all at once!"

"I just know I don't have that kind of luck, I'm going to have to stick with the slow and steady path"

"Fine when I come to you tomorrow without any debt don't come crying to me!"

"I'll be praying for it to be so." Barry said waving his hand backwards at alan as alan left the room. "Whatever, I don't need you anyways. damn good for nothing!" Alan kicked the door frame on the way out.

------------------------------------------------------

"Haaaaaa, want a cash advance of your salary?" Komachi looked at Alan with an amused face.

"No, no ... I just want a little pocket money, we're at Recepshi, I'd like to enjoy it if even moment ..."

"Hasn't it's only been a week since payday?"

"I've had a lot of expenses this month ... ..."

"Don't bug me about this anymore." Komachi turned away from Alan.

"oooooo please please please! deputy director Komachi! Just a little pleaseeeeee... I don't need much.... pleaaaaaaase"

"Geez……" Alan had no dignity left in his begging,he rubbed his head against the floor as he bowed, Komachi lost her ability to say no.

"Okay, then how about betting your entire next salary with me? If you loose I owe you nothing next paycheck. if you win you'll have the money for your next paycheck and I won't have to pay you"

"Oh, thank you!"

----------------------

One hour after rubbing his head against the floor, Alan had lost all his salary for the following month.

Of course, this was his a salary deducting his debt payments.

And the luck fleet would feed him, they wouldn't let him starve.

"If you worked hard you wouldn't have to gamble, you should get back to work."

"I was just having a bad streak of luck! What if I bet my salary for the next month ... ...."

When alan said that, Komachi punched him right in the face.

"What did I just say!"

--------------

"...... I see, that is an interesting story, and it makes sense why Maito would be interested."

Ms. Makihi who heard about Kiriko's life from Washu nodded intensely.

"The Emperor's family living secluded in a special environment ...... And furthermore Seina-sama is exposed to great misfortune, obsession, escape, regret ..." Makihi envisioned it as if to chew Kiriko's life story in her mind to digest it.

She could read a person's personality and psychology quite accurately if she knew a certain extent of their way of living.

"It's enough to do in anyone."

"Well? Are you going to try to scout her? That might be a little difficult." Washu joked

"I do not want that, but I wouldn't mind getting her on stage, even if it's impossible now, as long as the history of Recepshi continues there's a chance even a thousand years from now or two thousand years it will happen eventually. "

"May Racepshi be around as long as history continues."

"Come now, you're satisfied with her answer right, you should change your attitude and be more friendlier." Makihi stroked Maito's head, he looked happy with the answers Washu had given him, he got out from behind his mother and bowed to Washu before he left the room.

As soon as the door closed, the outside noise was blocked off and the quietness returned again, makihi's atmosphere again on the spot changed to that of an adult.

"By the way I'd like to ask you a little more about Seina Yamada ... ..." In Makihi 's eyes something like a slightly ferocious threat resided, Washu read the meaning quickly.

"You sure are a causal person, well, in that sense we are the same."

the Racepshi's were a family who aimed to collect, protect and reproduce data on the theater and shows.

In other words, fostering a performer to inherit that data was their most important mission.

Makihi emphasized the succession of blood as well as the search for human resources in order to nurture the next generation and the ones beyond that.

Currently, she had ten children, but only two with her husband and the rest were with two other men. However, genetic manipulation and body remodeling were not carried out at all on the children.

"Just know that I'm interested in him, I feel there maybe a good compatibility and I might be able to replicate his probability,he seems like healthy spirit, also is there detailed data on the Seina-san's birth? "

In other words, she believed she had high possibility of reproducing a child with him that had the same probability bias.

"Don't you think you should at least meet Seina first?" washu said Makihi was in a sense, treating Seina like a breeding stallion. Washu found it distasteful and was also worried about Tenchi's reaction.

"Of course I'm aware of that even you can't introduce me to him Washu, I'm sure he will end up in my proximity eventually, I just want to predict the results in advance so I don't have to worry when that time comes."

In other words, she wanted to have a compatibility test between her and Seina and Makihi to predict the future of the child born.

"Thanks, but I must refuse, however I think it's safe to assume they would have an unbelievable bias probability as well."

"What about testing some of my girls with him?"

"Oh can I be tested?" Maya's expression got brighter.

"Can you at least give his personal data to me?"

"What if we say were going use it to reinforce the security systems for Recepshi."

"Hmm ... not a bad idea." Washu said satisfied.

"...... Hmm so far only seven of your daughters have come to greet me ...where are the latter two?"

"Because one of my daughters ran away from home and hasn't come back and the other is away from home, the other seven people will be test subjects."

-------------spoiler since it may be a while till I translate it:

oykihcamok spelled backwards is the name of her runaway daughter

I predict the one who is away is Maimu the girl in the white suit in the colored illustrations of GXP 16 but no confirmation on that at this moment--------------------------------

----------

"I'm surprised there are also such things going on in the Recepshi family."

"Even when one of our employees become a dancing princess about 30% of them will retire to do other things, so my daughters are no exception. Of course I will accept them if they want to return, Such detours are a part of gaining life experience, it helps fertilize one's art."

"Okay, then I'll check it in a moment, but first, your youngest daughter is twins with Maito-chan right?"

"Yes, we will check her compatibility in five years."

(Then,I guess i can't use 'Mister slimey 3' for that girl ... ...)

"... .... Washu. Since the performance is still ongoing, please don't do anything to cause a hindrance in their performance."

Makihi's request put a damper on washu's plan

"Oh, I see... I understand."

However, a few hours later, when Makihi finished the performance for the day they all fell prey to "Mister slimy no.3", "Mister licky no.1" and "Mr. Sucking Vacuum No. 4" and " Mr. Cleany No. 5" .

-------------------

Makihi 's concert was over, and the Space Pirates were stunned as if their souls had passed from their bodies for a while.

The curtain descending gave rise to great applause. Some of the Space Pirates were still stunned and sat in silence for a while. However, the female hostesses were aware of the situation and lured those ones to go back to the gambling hall. Seiryo, with Daruma, left the bustle of the hall and headed for a quiet private box.

"Oh! Makihi's dance was wonderful, but this view is also wonderful."

From the box seat Daruma could see the entirety of the big hall, but his line of sight of was directed to the luck ship anchored in a large dock, which was visible from the window opposite to the box. The luck ship was given special exterior lighting to emphasize its exterior more gaudily and made it look even bigger.

"Oh, Captain, are you in here?" Barry entered the private box with another man. when barry saw Daruma, he saluted like one did in the GP out of habit.

"Calm down Barry our saluting practices are different."

"Oh, ah! uhm, sorry!"

"Hahaha! you're Good, everyone is having fun."

"So, was is there a problem?"

"Oh, no, checking the checks are all going well so far there is no problem, but this central control officer is here ... ..."

"Oh I nearly didn't see him there. what does he want?" Daruma looked at the man behind Barry

"It's about time You gave that ship out there a formal ship name ... ...

"Seiryo, Since you're captain I'll leave this to you, please give it a good name."

"Ha ha ha! President, you already know what I'm going to name it." Seiryo stood up and grilled and laughed and held up a V - sign.

"so... what is the name?"

"The Ship's name is Victory! V, Victory!"

"Sorry, That has already been registered with another ship" The administrative official answered Seiryo felt like he had been soaked in cold water

"... Well.... then how about Great Victory!"

"Slso in use."

"Ultra Super Great Victory!"

"Taken"

"Hyper Deluxe Great Victory!"

"Taken"

"Damn it!"

----------------

About 30 minutes later

"Look we need a name..."

"Ugh give me a minute ......" seiryo was frustrated.

"Well ... ... It's hard to decide ..."

Barry and Daruma were sitting next to each other, drinking wine together and watching Seiryo fail to pick an unused

"Well, how about using the name lucky as the code name?" The registeration terminal buzzed to emit an error sound .

"Hmm! Give me a moment!" Seiryo picked up the terminal and he scrolled through the names of the vessels listed.

"Ugh! There seems to be no variations of good luck left!"

"... Well, everyone wants to give a good name to their ship, hey ... how about we try this." The administrator opened up a dictionary, and started searching.

"... Oh, oh, only one variation of characters meaning luck remains ... ...."

"Let me guess? ...... Is it bad luck?"

Seiryo then looked at the monitor running in front of the administrator.

"Well it seems to work, but this is kinda... ...."

"No, it is not a good name, that's the one we will use! Register it! Hurry before anyone else gets it!"
