Cross suggested we find somewhere to get some research done, so we're sailing south to Manila. It's famous for it's library, so hopefully that will keep him busy for a while. After that, the whole southern sea is ours to explore.

[He crosses his arms and frowns slightly.]

It's not exactly treasure hunting, but surely a library has something worth taking...

[rebellions]

... Library.

[As much as Ragna's tone isn't anywhere close to friendly even during normal conversations, the way he stresses that one word with voice full of resentment may seem kinda out of place, given the topic.]

As in, a place with books and shit, right?

[The question is pointless by now, seeing as he's already encountered this world's "Navy" and not a single person affiliated with the NOL, but forewarned is forearmed and all that crap.]

[seadevil]

What else would a library be? [Motochika is confused.]

I've heard there's not much else on the island but the library, but I'm sure I could have Xun Yu set you some tasks around the ship if you aren't interested.

[Delegating responsibility is great!]

[rebellions]

Nothing. Just making sure. [Which is a blatant lie, but he doesn't feel like explaining the meaning and purposes of an organization that's only relevant to his own world anyway.]

No thanks. [He's not babysitting your turkey, Motochika. Not now, not ever.] I'll check it out.

[... Truth is, he just wouldn't let the chance to stand firmly on the ground slip by.]

[seadevil]

Well, suit yourself. [Motochika shrugs.]

I don't have much interest in it myself, unless I can dig up some interesting blueprints to study. I'm not really the library sort.

[rebellions]

[Fair enough.

Ragna leans back against the side of the ship (not because he feels like he might lose the balance again, nope), letting out a sigh.]

I don't think there's anything interesting to find there anyway.

[He figures other people would've found it by now, after all.]

[seadevil]

Perhaps not, but it can't hurt to make stop on the way south. I've sailed the waters west of Isla Empieza, but never to the south, so it will be new to all of us. There's a crew docked at an island south of Manila that we'll likely have to meet up with eventually, but I'm in no hurry for that.

[Not in a hurry for that to happen ever.]

Of course, if you find somewhere you wish to go, you've only to tell me and I'll consider it.

[rebellions]

[Ragna raises his eyebrow a little at the comment about some other crew, but hey, he knows he isn't in a hurry for meeting anyone, period. So he's not really gonna argue that.]

... I'll keep that in mind.

[Truth is, the only place he wants to go to right now is Ikaruga, but that's out of question for obvious reasons.]

[seadevil]

[Motochika claps him on the shoulder.]

See that you do!

[All in all, he's FAR to cheerful as he walks off with a big, stupid grin on his face, leaving Ragna to his thoughts.]
