Notes

Hello, and welcome to this... Uhh.. Beginner's level fanfic! Alright I'll be brief and point
some things out.

- No smut. (I simply can't write those)


- Sometimes will use POV (Person of View)
- Will, no 𝘥𝘦𝘧𝘪𝘯𝘪𝘵𝘦𝘭𝘺, has spoilers to the anime and probably manga. (If I can get to that
level)
- Might add some OCs (Original Characters)
- Law and Kid's age gap are still the same as the anime. But Luffy's age gap with Law is 5
years, instead of 7 years, and 2 years, instead of 4 years, with Kid.
- And lastly, some characters are going to be OOC. (Well, in my opinion it is but you guys
can say more on the comments)

Every character belonged to Eiichiro Oda.

(Except the AO3 account and OCs obviously)


Childhood
Chapter Notes
See the end of the chapter for notes

Chapter 1 : Knowing

Law felt really blessed is an understatement. Why? Because he has not only one but 2
Soulmarks. On his left arm, there is a bright Silver Wrench that shines bright under the sun.
On his right arm, there is a Straw Hat that looks quite worn out but it still looks cute
nonetheless.

At first Law was really happy with this information, he's going out to the sea to try and find
both of his soulmates. But when he is 10 years old, when the incident happened, he started to
gave up on the idea to meet his soulmates.

~~~

Kid felt abandoned, hated, betrayed. Being an orphan in an island with the "Survival of The
Fittest" Rule, is definitely not easy. But the marks on both of his arms keeps his flame of
hope burning bright.

On his left arm is an old looking Straw Hat that somehow still looks pretty. A perfect
Golden Coin is on his right arm, at first he's confused, but he came to understand that maybe
his other soulmate loves shiny things like him, oh how he can't wait to meet them both.

~~~
Luffy was ecstatic when he first saw both of his Soulmarks. People are always asking or
annoy Luffy about the fact that he has 2 Soulmates instead of one, but he himself didn't know
why does he have 2 Soulmarks, nor does he cared about that. All he knows, it's a miracle.

His right arm has a very pretty Sliver Wrench that looks really cool in the dark. Meanwhile
his left arm has a cool Golden Coin that shines majestically under the sunlight. He cannot
wait until he turned 17 to explore the world to be The King of Pirates, and searching for his
soulmates.

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

Somewhere in the North Blue

"Hey Law, c'mere for a sec! " Said Doflamingo.

Law is scared, thinking that Corazon had finally told Doflamingo that he's the one who
stabbed him 2 weeks ago. He slowly walks towards Doflamingo while hiding his fear of the
tall pink coated man.
"What do you want Doflamingo?" Law said while hiding his stutter. "I've noticed that you
have a Soulmark on each arm. Care to explain why do you have 2 Soulmark? " Doflamingo
said with curiosity, to be honest, he is intrigued by the fact that Law had 2 Soulmarks.

If Law's being honest, he is uncomfortable with Doflamingo's request, order but he had no
choice. Who knows what's that pink coated man will do to him if he refuses.

"Whaaaat??!!! No way, that can't be true. If it's true then show us both of your Soulmarks
then!" Said Baby 5 and Buffalo, who didn't believe it.

"No, both of them are the real deal. And fine.. You guys can see them. " Law said with an
uninterested tone, knowing damn well that these two will annoy the hell out of him if he
didn't let them see it.

He slowly rolled up both of his shirt's, already short, sleeves to reveal both of his Soulmarks,
A shiny Silver Wrench on the left arm, and a cute Straw Hat on the right arm.

"Whoa... They're pretty. "Said Baby 5.

"Fufufu, well aren't you a lucky one Law, to have 2 Soulmarks. That's something you don't
see everyday." Doflamingo said with a very shocked tone.
"It doesn't matter, I'll die first before meeting with the both of them. " Said Law. Doflamingo
sat still for a while, thinking before saying, " Well, you're still a wonder. Imagine how sad
your Soulmates will be if they know that a part of their soul is going to disappear in a short
time. " Law just grumbled inaudibly while going away from the makeshift base, anywhere is
better than near Doflamingo and his so called 'family ".

An Island in the South Blue

Today is definitely not his day.

Ever since he got his Devil fruit, Kid has been spending most of his time at the nearby
Junkyard, tinkering and creating tiny or just random structures using the scraps and leftover
metals there.

At the first few hours, he's still thinking while testing his Devil Fruit's powers and even got
used to it. But around noon, some weird and psychotic looking adults came and tried to
capture him. So he did the only thing he could do in this situation...

Kill them all.


When his new best friend, Killer, came to check on him, the junkyard looks like a damned
war zone with everything looks even more trashed than before and blood literally
everywhere.

"Really Kid? I left you for a couple of hours and this is what came back with?! Said Killer,
clearly pissed off with what he would call "Kid's daily shenanigans".

"It's not my fault and you know it Killer. These shitheads just suddenly came and tried to
kidnap me. What the hell am I supposed to do, let them kidnap me? Fuck no! "Said Kid.

Killer just sighed, knowing what Kid said is true. This place is technically an Unhabitable
Island, an island that is so dangerous that it can't be inhabited by humans, an island that didn't
get any protection from the Marines whatsoever, even though they are the embodiment of
"Justice". The only thing you can do here is just to try living secretly and hope that you'll
survive for another day.

"Alright then let's stop talking about that and let's talk about your Soulmarks, Kid. I'm
actually quite curious with how you got them." Said Killer with a curious tone.

"Tch, like I said before Killer, I don't know how or why did I got fucking 2 Soulmarks. All I
know is that I'll survive in this damnable island, explore the world, and find the One Piece
and both of them! Kid said with a lot of confidence, when suddenly....

His stomach rumbled, loudly.


Killer laughed at his best friend's stomach rumblings while Kid got red with embarrassment
while grumbling something with a low voice. "C'mon Kid, let's go to Opie's shack. It's almost
lunch time. Or I'll eat your lunch! " Killer said while running, still laughing from Kid's
rumbling stomach. "OI! WAIT UP YOU LITTLE SHIT! " Said Kid while trying to catch up
with Killer. Food first, then back to training.

Mount Colubo, East Blue

Luffy and his two older brothers, Ace and Sabo, are currently exploring on the West side of
the Mountain, thinking that they'll find something interesting there. "Oi, Luffy" Ace started.
"Yeah Ace, what's up? " Luffy asked.

"You know I was thinking. How come you have 2 Soulmarks? Doesn't everyone only got one
Soulmark?" Ace finally asked his question. "Hmm... I don't know. But what I do know is that
I'll meet them and be The King of Pirates!" Luffy said excitedly.

Ace just sighed playfully, while Sabo is thinking Ace's question again. "I think I've seen a
book in the Goa Kingdom's Library, about Luffy's unique situation." Sabo said suddenly.
"Really? " Luffy asked "Did you remember what's in it? " He asked again with a hopeful
tone.

"Well I don't remember much of the contents. But I do remember that there's a story in that
book that told a story that happened 800 years ago, about 3 people who got each other as
Soulmates." Sabo explained briefly, since he knows that Luffy will be confused if he
explained the story in detail.

"Huh? 800 years ago? How is the same situation that had happened 800 years ago came back
again? And to Luffy of all people. " Ace said uninterested, but he's actually worried with his
"what if's" On both of Luffy's Soulmates.

"Whoa! 800 years ago, that's sooo cool! I really am lucky to have 2 Soulmates. I'll cherish
them and protect them with all of my life!! " Luffy declared suddenly.

Ace and Sabo are shocked with Luffy's sudden declaration but decided to not think too much
of it.

"Well, that statement might work if your Soulmates are petite, cute, and small women. But
what if both of your Soulmates are guys, Luffy? I think you're the one's being protected~"
Ace said, taunting Luffy with his mocking tone, thinking that Luffy would take the bait.

".. I actually never thought about that... Well, if that's the case then we'll be protecting each
other's back! " Luffy said confidently, while doing his infamous D smile.

Ace, and Sabo, didn't know what he was expecting for Luffy's answer, but he's sure as hell
that this, was not expecting that answer. Sabo suddenly laughed and said "Haha, you
sometimes surprised me Luffy. Oh it's almost nighttime, we should go back with our hunt
today and come back later." "Let's go! " Ace and Luffy said together.
In 8 years, something very interesting will happen.

Chapter End Notes

Hey, I'm writing this fanfic because there's no one making them anymore. Even if there
are people who are still writing about the Supernova Trio (Law, Kid, and Luffy) It's
either they abandoned the fanfic, they quit writing, on a long hiatus, the fanfic is already
completed, or they just simply forgot their fanfic's existence. So yeah, I've already
established some information about my fanfic on the beginning notes, but I'll keep you

Chapter 2 : Nicknames

Somewhere on the North Blue Sea


Law's PoV

After Cora-san sacrificed his life for me, I managed to escape using a dinghy row boat to go
to Swallow Island. I can't sleep, whenever I tried to sleep the guilt and nightmares will haunt
me, so I have no choice but to stay up most of the time.

I shook my head as I noticed that I was slowly falling into a haunting sleep again. "Damn it.
I almost fell asleep again. Sigh, if only I have stole some energy pills from the " Family"
Before I left.... Ne, Cora-san... Are you currently regretting your actions? I mean, I'm just a
stranger to you and yet... " I started sobbing profusely. " A-and yet.. Yo-u s-still, saved m-
me." I tried to wipe off my stupid tears but it ended in vain as I cried even harder until
eventually I fell asleep. Luckily, there's no nightmare in this sleep, just good memories about
my family and Cora-san.

"Mmh... One more minute Cora-san... Cora-san? Oh yeah... He's not here anymore. Maybe I
should try to use my Devil Fruit power." I tried to do anything but nothing happened. "Ugh,
WHY DOES NOTHING WORKS?!!! Oh how I wish that I had a check up Room here, so I
can see how much does this stupid sickness is affecting me." After I said that suddenly there's
a tiny blue sphere on my right hand. "What the- Huh?! What the hell is this!!" I tried to shook
that sphere thing off my hand but I won't come off. "Wait... Maybe this is my Devil Fruit
power? Cora-san said that this power can save my life but how? "

Then I remembered Cora-san's words about destroying the Amber Lead from it's core,
which is my heart. "Ok, so how do I do that? Maybe.. Scalpel." After I did that, suddenly my
heart is on the boat's floor. "EHHH!!! What-I- WHAT THE HELL!!" I jumped slightly at
the sight I saw. My heart is protected with a transparent jelly textured box to keep it beating. I
poked my heart that's on the floor and felt a slight itch at where my heart is supposed to be,
then I slowly picked up my heart. It has some white spots on it just like my entire body.
"Interesting, so this is one my abilities huh?"

I managed to take out some of the Lead in my heart and dissipated it, when I suddenly felt
tired. "Wha-what is happening, I just woke up from my sleep a few minutes ago. Why.. Ugh"
I succeeded to put my heart back to it's place before passing out like a light.

I woke up and noticed that the sky has turned reddish orange, meaning it's already in the
afternoon. "... Did I seriously slept that long?" I looked around and saw that the dinghy row
boat had docked on Swallow Island's shoreline."So this is Swallow Island. Of course it had to
be docked on the forest part of the island." I said not giving a single care about the dangers in
the forest. "Well, I guess I'll just go in now. Nothing to lose... Except for my Soulmates.
Speaking of Soulmates, I've never written anything to any of them after the incident, have I?
" As I was thinking about this, suddenly something was written on my right wrist.

Third PoV

'Hello, my Soulmate. How are you doing? You never write anything to me or Bolt for a very
long time, so we were worried about you.' Is what what written on Law's right wrist. "Huh? I,
I thought they forgot about me... Heh, that's nice, but who's Bolt? Wait first thing first, do I
have anything to write with? " Law quickly reached for both of his pants' pockets and found
an old pen in one of them. "Great, now I can reply to them. Let's see..." Law started to write
slowly. "Well, I'd say that's a pretty good answer." He wrote, 'Hello my lovely Soulmate. I
apologize that I can't talk to any of you guys for quite a while. A lot of things has happened
to me and I can't seem to have a break, but now I finally got a break... For a long time. Also,
who's Bolt? '

Immediately after Law wrote that, the words slowly disappears and are changed with ' I see..
Well I hope that you'll get a good break from whatever you had to deal with before. Also Bolt
is our other Soulmate, the one with the cool Silver Wrench Soulmark, and he calls me
StrawHat!' Law is glad that his Soulmate did not ask anything about his experiences with the
Donquixote Pirates, but on the other hand, he was surprised that both of his Soulmates has
given a nickname to each other.

'I see, so you two have nicknames for each other now? If you don't mind can I call you...
Strawhat-ya?' Is what Law wrote. It didn't take Law a long time to receive a reply back from
his Soulmate. 'Yeah! You can call me that. But now that I saw how you write my nickname,
the way you and Bolt write my nickname it's very different with one another.' 'Can you tell
me the difference between the way we write your nickname?' Law is interested with what his
'Strawhat-ya' had wrote, how could they tell the difference?

'Well if Bolt's the one writing my nickname, it's always with bold, big words, and it felt like
he was writing it with a lot of confidence and pride. On the other hand when you wrote my
nickname, it's written very carefully with some cursive. It feels... Very calming, as if you're
beside me right now, reassuring me that everything is ok and that you're here for me. I don't
know why, but one thing I'm sure is that you have a great personality, Gold!' Law is worried
with the things his Soulmate just wrote and he's also confused with the nickname his
Soulmate just gave him. 'Gold?' 'Yeah, Gold, as in your sparkling Golden Coin Soulmark! '
Law just chuckled at that, but he likes it.

Next Day

Law has managed to reach the island's town, it's not as big as Flevance but it's a big one in
this island. He tried to find places that are hiring but unfortunately nobody wants to hire him
because he's still a child, like what? He's 14, thank you very much. After walking around
aimlessly in the town, a woman around her 40's approached him.

"Hi there little one. What are you doing walking around the market alone?" To say that Law
is offended is an understatement, but he kept his sarcastic remark in his mind and tried to ask
politely. "Finding a job so I can eat." Yeah, keyword : tried, it's either the woman is too kind
or she just ignored his rude tone. "I see well if you want, I can hire you to work on my
clinic." Law was stunned by the woman's words, he's actually going to do anything for a
couple of berries, but now this woman is hiring him to work, on a clinic? Law didn't know
what happened to his luck but he is grateful that he has an offer to work in a place he
understood. So he accepted the woman's offer.

Rosalyn's Clinic, Swallow Island


Law is amazed by how the woman's clinic looked like. He learned that the woman's name is
Lyra Anderson, 46 y/O, and that she's the owner of the clinic. It's not big, but enough for a
couple of patients and some rooms for the doctors who lived there. it reminded him of his
parents' hospital.

In the next few weeks, Law spends his time on a schedule ; Wake up, eat, help Lyra-ya with
her clinic, visit some of her patients' house, go back to the clinic, eat, study some books,
sleep, today though is different. "Law, can you please come here for a second?" Lyra asked to
Law, he put the book he's reading back to it's place and goes to where Lyra is. "What is it
Lyra-ya? I am still reading a book about surgery." Law said clearly annoyed "Sorry about that
Law, but I've noticed that you're spending your time by the same order since the day you
started working here, so I'm giving you a break." Lyra revealing her intention.

Law froze for a second but gets back his composure immediately, "I'm sorry Lyra-ya, but I
don't have anything to do besides doing work. Besides, that's what I've been doing even
before I came to this island." Law said, still taken a back by what Lyra had said. "Yes I am
aware of that Law, that's why I wanted you to take a break. You're still young so you should
spend your time doing what you wanted."

Law thought about what Lyra has suggested. "... I... Guess I could have a day or two out of
work." Law said still couldn't believe that he got sometime for himself. "Great! You have 1
month to have sometime for yourself, don't worry you can still stay here but I'll lecture you if
you even think about working, understood?" The way Lyra said that makes Law's spine chills
"B-but, 1 month?!! That's a long time Lyra-ya!" He mentally cursed himself for stuttering.
"No buts Law, either you take the 1 month break or you're not allowed to work here again."
"Fine.."

After the 1 month break, he managed to relax and got some friends while he was at break.
While he was wandering around the island shore, he found two kids hitting a cute cub. The
poor cub can't do anything but cry so Law uses his power to save the cub and scold the two
kids. The two kids apologized to the cub and the cub forgives them (How kindhearted). When
Law asked their reason for hitting the adorable cub, they said that they're forced by their aunt
to hit the cub.

Law asked their names, the two kids and the cub, the one wearing a penguin like hat is
Penguin, (Law just started at him for a moment) the one wearing an orca hat and sunglasses
is Shachi, and the white snow cub is Bepo. Law, Penguin, and Shachi, are shocked that Bepo
could talk but Bepo immediately explained that he is a Mink, animals that has human like
bodies and can talk like humans, the three just nodded.

After the "Bepo incident" Law asked Penguin and Shachi why do they still live with their
toxic aunt, which Penguin replied that they have no where to stay except their aunt's house,
so Law suggested that the three of them live with him in the clinic which they happily
accepted. Law asked Lyra if the three can stay in her clinic which she happily agreed and she
was so happy that Law has made some friends, even though he got them in a rather weird
way.

Two months later, Swallow Island

Law, Bepo, Penguin, and Shachi are what people would say Best Friends but Law is still
adamant that he cannot fit with them, which the other three denied immediately and hugs
Law tightly. One night, Law decided to go to the hill near the clinic to clear his mind when
suddenly some writing started to show in his left wrist. 'Yo, how'd you been? I thought that
you're dead but your Mark is still shining so bright that I can't see most of the time. I've heard
from Strawhat that you answered his writing to you.'

Law just scoffed at some of his Soulmate's rude remarks but he knows that his other
Soulmate is actually worried for him but he can't say it openly and he never actually meant
his insults... Most of them. Law reached for his pocket and started to write something back to
his Soulmate, if Strawhat-ya is the interesting Soulmate, then the other one is the Obnoxious
Soulmate. 'Yeah, yeah, I've been busy with helping my caretaker managing her clinic. Sorry
that I never write anything to you and your anger issues.'

He waits for a while before a reply was written on his left wrist, 'HUH?! What do you mean
anger issues, I am perfectly fine you dumbass. Also, you finally free from whatever's hurting
you huh? Since you said that you're helping someone managing their clinic, I guess that's a
yes.' Law is confused, what does his Soulmate mean by 'Finally free from whatever's hurting
him?'

'What do you mean by finally free?' He immediately gets a reply, '.. So that idiot Strawhat
never told you? 3 years ago your Soulmark on us started to get darker day by day. But after a
year ago, it started to go back to it's original gold color that's annoyingly blinding.' Law is
shocked by what his Soulmate has written, his mark started to get darker 3 years ago?! That's
when he joined the Donquixote Pirates! When he looked at his left wrist, there's a different
set of sentences written on it.

'Look, I don't know what the hell happened to you to make you so fucked up you don't even
write anything to us and just erased our attempts to write anything to you, you stubborn Gold'
'So you're going to call me using my nickname given by Strawhat-ya? Ok, then I'll call you
Bolt-ya.' Law wrote, 'What's up you and saying other people's name with 'Ya'?' His 'Bolt-
ya' replied.

'I just felt comfortable with saying that, are you that sensitive you can't even handle your
nickname got a little change?' Law wrote, trying to return his Soulmate's snide remarks he
did before, 'You little shit! Of course not, I'm going to be a captain of a strong pirate crew so
don't think that I'll do what you wanted! Also... Get some rest, Goldie' The writings ended
with that, and a blushing Law.

Chapter 3 : 8 Years Later

Grand Line, Victoria Punk


Kid is just looking at the sea from his room, waiting for the Victoria Punk to reach the next
island navigated by the Log Pose while thinking about both of his Soulmates, Strawhat and
Gold. But he's also very intrigued by two of his rival captains, 'Strawhat' Luffy and 'Surgeon
of Death' Trafalgar Law, both his Soulmates and the two rival captains has a lot of
similarities.

For example both his Soulmate and 'Strawhat' Luffy has the same nickname, is it a
coincidence Kid didn't know. The second example is that both Gold and Trafalgar Law has a
lot of knowledge on the same subject which is medical knowledge, especially about the
human body and different types of surgeries. Now Kid may act before thinking first, for most
of the time, but these similarities are just too much of a coincidence.

Just as he was thinking about this, there are some bubbles that started to form in front of his
room's window. "What the hell is that?" Kid said confused and raising his guard up. The
bubbles kept on forming and it's starting to become more and more visible until "BAH!!" The
strange thing? Creature? Shouted and jumped out of the sea before going back down, creating
a big splash that made Kid got some of the seawater on his clothes. "WHAT THE
FUCK??!!" Kid shouted. He is shocked but kept his guard up.

"Huh, what?" The 'creature' said while looking up at Kid. They both stared at each other for
a minute before the 'creature' waved at Kid with it's eight black tentacles and said "Bye!" The
'creature' dived into the sea again, as if nothing had just happened. "What the fuck just
happened?" Kid said, clearly confused and thinking that he's actually asleep right now ,and
the creature he just saw is not real, and just continued to think about the similarities again.

Kogane Island, Grand Line

Kid and his crew had reached an island called Kogane Island, which means gold, that has a
lot of treasure at the top of the volcano, with challenges of course. To get to the top, one must
survive a jungle and defeat the animals there, sure there might be some animals that looked
harmless at first glance, but even a small rabbit could bite your arm off.

Kid and his crew decided that only him and Killer will go to the volcano, while the rest of
the crew stay at the ship and restock their supplies. It's almost in the evening but they haven't
even reached half of the volcano, why? Well, it's simply because they didn't know what
they're dealing with.
Killer's PoV

What the fuck is wrong with this island?! Everything's dangerous here, the animals, insects,
heck even the trees are hostile! I thought that Kid thinks so too but when I looked at his
direction he looked estatic, like, the fuck? How is he having fun in this kind of place???!! But
then again... It's Kid. He's always up for challenges and has a very short temper, so he's easily
provoked even by the most stupidest topic.

For example, last week he's asking one of his Soulmate about who's the tallest, at first I
didn't think much of it since it's just a general question asked to your Soulmate, (Well I don't)
but then he proceeded to fight with his Soulmate via writing? I, I seriously don't even want to
know how.

Just as I was thinking about the most weirdest things that Kid had wrote to his Soulmates,
he called me so I looked at his direction. It looks like he's carrying something... Oh, he's just
carrying a giant boar.... Wait a minute a GIANT BOAR??!!! "What the, WHERE DID YOU
EVEN FIND THAT THING KID?!" I shouted at him. "I found it somewhere around there."
He points to his back. "I was planning to just go somewhere else, but then this little bitch
started to attack me, so I beat the daylight out of this bitch. And I also planned to carry this
thing to the ship for out food stock." He said nonchalantly. I, ok, I give up.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Phew! That took a while but it sure did made my mind more clearer. Just as I was thinking
about what song I should sing, I heard clapping sound behind me. "That's a nice song you got
there Lu." She said. I turned around and saw Rei. Her name's Kazenayagi D. Reimu, but I just
called her Rei, while she called me Lu. We first met at the Aqua Laguna incident and she
helped me and my crew, plus Sogeking, defeat these uhhh, secret agents and saved Robin
from them. I may have declared war on the World Government, but who cares?! They hurt
my nakama, I can never, ever, forgive them.

"Oh, uh, hi Rei... Did you like my singing?" I'm scared, will she say that it was bad just like
the kids at Foosha Village? "Like it? No, I love it." Huh? That's unexpected, she loves it? She
loves my voice? "R-really? You mean it?" I said, still didn't believe what she just said. "Of
course, I meant what I said Lu. Your voice is amazing. Hey, maybe you can teach me how to
sing?" What she said just made me froze for a moment before answering her. "But, but I can't
sing. Plus my voice sounds terrible." I said, thinking she would say the same thing, "What are
you talking about, Lu? I just said that your voice is amazing."

I could feel my eyes started to water a little bit, no one had ever said that to me, Rei just
stood still beside me and wiped my teary eyes. "Hey don't cry. If you still have some doubts
about your vocals then maybe we could have a singing session sometimes?" Rei suggested.
That's actually a great idea, I just nodded. "Oh yeah. Remind me again, how did you get stuck
between two buildings when the Aqua Laguna is coming?" I could feel my face scrunch at
that.

Flashback, The Aqua Laguna Incident

"WE CAN'T REACH THE STAIRWAY IN TIME!" Nami shouted. I just kept my speed
and we landed at the stairs leading to higher ground. We relaxed thinking that we're now safe
from the Aqua Laguna, but no it suddenly gets even higher than before, and it'll reach us if
we didn't jump to Galley La's storage, where it's on a higher ground.
I stretched my arms and wrapped it around my crew. As I was preparing to jump, I almost
fell down but I kept my balance. I looked down and saw that my left leg is stuck in one of the
cracks on the stairway. I tried to pull my leg out but it's too deep. The Aqua Laguna is too
close... I just closed my eyes while my crew just screamed and prayed, well just Nami and
Chopper.

As I heard the crashing waves coming closer, I felt something grabbed the four of us and I
could feel that we're flying in the air. I looked up and saw a person wearing a white mask that
has some swirls on each side and a light blue six pointed star on the top. The person noticed I
looked at them so they looked at me and just nodded, I nodded back knowing that they're
signaling that they are not an enemy.

End of Flashback, Galley La's Workers Cabin

Rei just chuckled a little bit at the way we met, I just pouted at her. Rei changed the topic by
asking, "By the way, I've noticed that you've got two marks on both of your arms,one on each
side, is one of them a tattoo?" "Nope! Both of them are my Soulmarks, and I'm going to write
something to them now." I actually forgot to write something to them last night, I hope that
they're not worried. "Can see you and your Soulmates' conversation?" Now that's a question
I've never been asked for, but I nodded.

'Hi Gold! I'm sorry I didn't write anything to you last night. I hope that I didn't miss
anything important.' And now to Bolt, 'Heya Bolt! Sorry I didn't write anything last night. I
hope that you don't mind.' I immediately got an answer from the both of them. I looked at
Bolt's response first, 'You idiot, you should've told us before hand. Gold's been panicking,
thinking that you're in some sort of trouble or something.' Gold's panicking about my safety?
I looked at Gold's answer. 'Strawhat-ya, are you okay? You didn't do anything to hurt yourself
right?' Whoa, I'm screwed. Having a worried Gold is the worst case scenario.

'I'm sorry, I just forgot to write anything last night because I slept earlier than usual. Don't
worry, we just had a party last night, that's why I slept earlier.' 'I see, that's a relief. Hey, I
have to go now. My ship just docked to an island' He wrote. 'Ok, bye Gold!'

And now, time to talk Bolt. I looked at my left wrist and saw that the writings have changed.
'Yo. You done yet Strawhat?' 'Yup! I'm done. Sorry that you have to wait for a while Bolt.'
Will he be mad? 'No, I understand. Gold's always like that, I swear one day Gold's brain
gonna explode because he double checked something but they got the stuff wrong.'
Shishishi. I just laughed at what Bolt just said. 'Yeah I can see that happening.' We talked for
a while after that, it's really fun talking with both of my Soulmates!
Third PoV

The Strawhats are freaking out, why? Well it's because first, the Marines are in front of the
Cabin that they are currently staying at. Second, the legendary Garp The Fist is the one that
came with his students and other Navy soldiers. Third, Garp is Luffy's grandfather. Fourth,
Luffy's dad is the Most Wanted Man in the World a.k.a Revolutionary Dragon, or his full
name Monkey D. Dragon. And lastly, there's a damn Admiral with them.

Having the second commander of the Whitebeard Pirates as their captain's older brother is
already crazy, but this?! And what is an Admiral doing here! Also, where's Luffy in the
midst of this chaos? He's back asleep again after his grandpa hit his head and revealed who
his dad is. With Reimu next to him, to make sure that the Marines didn't do anything to their
captain.

As the Strawhats are thinking about what to do, the Admiral suddenly ran towards them
with a staff on her hand, clearly intending to attack them. But before she could do anything,
Reimu blocked her attack using her sword. ( Reimu's sword, Hoshizora, is kind of interesting
and weird at the same time, it's made of something as hard as iron, she said it was made with
a specific type of crystal, and it's shape is like a whip. Using her sword is going to take years
worth of training you have to be able to spin continuously without getting dizzy, then you'll
have to be able to move like water and move the sword like a whip. )

The Admiral widens her eyes for a moment before gaining back her composure and
proceeds to try and attack Reimu. That attempt ended with Reimu blocking the impending
attack and instead tries to slash the Admiral. "You have a pretty good swordsmanship. Why
don't you join the Marines? We could use someone like you." Said the Admiral. "I refuse."
Reimu's tone has a hint of venom when she said that. Then the Admiral said "Well, I refuse
your refusal!" Reimu just stared at her, dumbfounded.

Luffy suddenly came out of the cabin and said "Hey, don't hurt my friend Jiro!" The
Admiral pouted and said, "What? You're no fun Luffy." The Admiral, now known as Jiro,
said. "Wait, Luffy. Do you know her?" Nami asked. "Yeah, she's my little sister." One
second... Two seconds... Thre- "WHAT!!!! LITTLE SISTER?!!" The Marine soldiers,
Garp's students, Koby and Helmeppo, and the Strawhats, except Zoro he's lost again,
screamed at the same time.

"So, you're Luffy's younger sister?" Reimu asked her while sheathing back Hoshizora.
"That's right! I'm the 'Daughter of the Sky'. Well that's what people call me, since for some
reason every Admiral needs to have a title, but my name is Ryosaku D. Jiro. Nice too meet
you, Luffy's friend!" Jiro extended her hand to shake Reimu's hand, as if the short fight
between them didn't happen.
Reimu just took her hand and shakes it. "Likewise. My name is Kazenayagi D. Reimu. Also,
do you always greet people with a fight?" Reimu asked, curious about her, and her
Grandfather's, way of greeting. "That's right! Gramps taught me that, he sometimes said that
our way of greeting, people we trust, might come in handy.

"Is that so..." Reimu suddenly looked at Jiro's right arm. "Hm? Is that a White Rose on your
right arm?" She asked her, to which Jiro replied, "Uh huh!" Jiro nodded while saying that,
then she looked at her Soulmark "Isn't my Soulmark cute? Look, it has some tiny stars around
the Rose!" Reimu looked closer, "Oh, you're right!" The two of them continued to talk for an
hour or two, while Luffy goes to Koby and Helmeppo and talked with them both while
reminiscing some old memories.

Sanji is staring at Jiro for a long time. Robin poked his cheek and asked, "You kept staring
at Jiro, Sanji. Is there anything wrong?" That made Sanji came back to reality. "Ah, no no,
there's nothing wrong Robin-chan. It's just that..." Sanji rolled his left sleeve to reveal a Black
Squid that glows faintly on his left arm.

Robin widened her eyes and chuckles softly. "So that's why. Congratulations Sanji, you have
found your Soulmate." Sanji just nodded at Robin and continued to stare at Jiro, he's
questioning himself 'Is this real? Am I not dreaming? My Soulmate is so pretty!' And more.

Robin just chuckled again at Sanji's reaction. Ah, young love, she looked at her right
shoulder. There's a Hammer and two Nails under the hammer, she recounted about how she
met Franky, her Soulmate, for the first time. Franky has a gorgeous Iris Flower with some
petals. She looked at Sanji again and hoped that Sanji will meet her again sometime.

Chapter End Notes

Hello, this is quite the chapter huh? Anyways, I want to ask you guys some questions. I
hope it's not too hard.

•How do you erase notes? Like, seriously. On the second chapter, there are two end
notes and I don't know how to delete it (Or maybe it's just visible on my account? )
•Should I put ship more OC with the One Piece characters? Well, we already have Jiro
with Sanji, but what's you guys' opinion on that?
•And lastly, how do you guys feel about Snow Leopard Luffy? It's not shown yet in the
fanfic. But I seriously kept seeing him with these thick furry tail and ear every time I
watch One Piece.

(And yes, I put 'ear' not 'ears' on purpose)

Also, next chapter's Sabaody! The trio will finally meet, in the most weird setting ever.
And Jiro will be back again, with an another OC swimming with the Thousand Sunny.
💜
That's all, sorry if it's not what you guys expected. But overall, thank you for the kudos
and comments, and I'll see you guys next Friday. Bye

Chapter 4 : Finally Meeting


Sabaody Archipelago, Auction House

Law is Nervous.

Today should be the day him and both of his Soulmates met each other. Now there are a lot of
possible places of where his Soulmates could be, but out of any places that he could go to, he
chose to go to a fucking Auction House.

Mind you it's a goddamn auction house, human auction house. A place where slaves are
auctioned and are sold to people who would buy them. He knew that both of his Soulmates
are Pirates like him so he knows that they're not buying slaves or be the ones who got
auctioned.

While Law is still thinking about how both of his Soulmates will look like, the Kid Pirates
came inside the auction house. Eustass "Captain" Kid, captain of the Kid Pirates, noticed him
and his crew and glared at Law. Law peered at Kid and flipped the bird to him, which ends up
with Kid flipped it back to him and looked back at the auction house's stage.

Law wanted to mess with him even more but he stopped and looked at Kid's left arm, it has
a Golden Coin.

No way. NO. FUCKING. WAY!!


He's one of his Soulmates?! Law felt his face turned red and getting warmer. Kid's First Mate
must've noticed Law staring at Kid, because he looked at Law.

Killer's PoV

I looked at Trafalgar, confused at his expression. Why does he stared in shock at Kid? And
is his face red? I looked at where Trafalgar's eyes are looking at, his eyes seems to stare at
Kid's Soulmark.

Wait..

THE COIN ONE IS FUCKING GLOWING!!

But that still doesn't make any sense. Why would Trafalgar stare at it? Then I saw something
glowing purple on one of Trafalgar's sleeve. Okay, cool. I guess Trafalgar's Soulmate's also in
this damnable place.
.

Hold on.. I looked back at the Coin on Kid's shoulder, it also glows purple...

Then, it clicked.
It's his Soulmark.

He's one of Kid's Soulmate.

Good grief, I know that both of Kid's Soulmates are also Pirates like us, but come on. A
Pirate captain? And a rival at that?! And that's just one of his Soulmates, what about the other
one?!

I deflated at that thought... I guess Fate is planning something for the three of them.

Speaking of which, does Kid even notice Trafalgar's constant stare? I looked at Kid, but he's
just looking at the stage.

Oh, you little shit.

How do you not notice someone is fucking staring at you!!!

Heat and Wire looked at me, confused, so I gave them code 'Kid's being an idiot again'. They
looked even more confused as to why I used the code, so I told them to look at Trafalgar and
then to Kid's left arm. When they understood what I meant, they just stared in shocked at that.
I just facepalmed at their reaction, we all can't deal with Kid's level of idiocy 24/7.

Third PoV

The auctioneer came and started to talk about today they have special product, ready to be
bought.

After a few slaves got auctioned, the front door opened and some of the Strawhat Pirates,
with a masked swordswoman, a talking star and an Octopus?, came in.

They stood still for a while, probably scanning the place, before going to a corner and just
stood there, staring closely at the stage.

Heat informed Kid of their arrival and he immediately noticed that their captain is not with
them, while Law just took one look at them and before he continued to stare at Kid. ( Killer
just sweat dropped at Law )

From the looks of their faces, Law and Kid could see that they're anxiously waiting for
something.

Kid concluded that maybe this is their first time to buy a slave, but Law didn't think so. Their
looks can be confused as the first time they've been there.

But if one studied their faces more closer then one could see that they are scared, what they
are scared for, Law didn't know nor does he cared about it that much.

After some slaves got sold, suddenly the lights turned off and three spotlights is spinning on
the stage, as if indicating that there is an interesting and amazing prize waiting to be bought.

There is squeaking and wheel rolling sounds.

"Now, for the one that all of us are waiting for! I present to all of you bidders, A
MERMAID!!!"

When the auctioneer said that, the spotlights are now pointing towards the center of the stage,
two men grabbed the cloth that is covering the circular object to reveal a mermaid inside a
sphere shaped glass filled with water.
The Strawhats immediately straightened their posture when seeing the mermaid, this reaction
definitely didn't go unnoticed by Law, Kid, and their respective crews. They thought that the
Strawhat Pirates' reaction to the mermaid is really weird.

And Law finally noticed that the Strawhat Pirates' captain, 'StrawHat' Luffy, and some of the
Strawhats are not with them.

This intrigued Law, why is some of the crew are the only ones here?

As if to make matters even worse, a fucking Celestial Dragon came inside the Auction
House.

The Celestial Dragon came in while riding a slave, his family has already been inside the
Auction House and they complained at him for being late, all eyes turned to the Celestial
Dragon and the whole place suddenly became quiet.

Saint Charloss, the Celestial Dragon, looked around the whole place. At first he seemed
unamused because in his eyes there's nothing impressive, but then he looked at the stage and
saw the mermaid.

Unfortunately for the Strawhats, Saint Charloss also wanted to buy the mermaid. The
auctioneer put the mermaid at 100.000.000 Berries, then just as Nami wanted to bid for
200.000.000 Berries.....
"500.000.000 BERRIES!!!!" Saint Charloss shouted happily.

The Strawhats paled at Saint Charloss' words, now how can they get back their captured
friend? Suddenly, there's a loud crash and the roof got destroyed.

"OUCH! Why did you land from the roof!" Said a person wearing a Strawhat. "YOU'RE THE
ONE WHO WANTED TO GET HERE QUICKLY!!!" Shouted another person riding a (
probably dead ) flying fish. The entire audience stared at the broken roof and at the Straw
Hatted person. On the other hand, the Strawhats are relieved to see the person, the Kid Pirates
and Heart Pirates noticed this and concluded that the person is none other than 'StrawHat'
Luffy.

Kid's PoV

So that's the infamous 'Straw Hat' Luffy, huh? Not a bad way to enter.
As I was studying how he looked like, I coincidentally looked at his left arm.

What?

I squinted my eyes, and saw a Silver Wrench that's glowing purple on his left arm....

HUH??!!!

Wait, I checked my left arm and sure enough, the Straw Hat is also glowing purple. Hold on,
if he has my Soulmark on the left then that means... I peered at his right arm, and there it is.
A shining Golden Coin, he looked cute with those Soulmarks.

Wait what? I blushed as I realized what I was thinking.

"Kid, are you okay? Killer said. I looked at him and said,

"Killer." I paused for a moment before continuing, "Strawhat's my Soulmate."


Killer must've caught off guard by my words, because he only said 'huh?' and immediately
looked at Strawhat.

Killer stared at Strawhat and then looked at me. I don't know why, but he looked
exasperated, as if he's tired with something that I did. What the fuck did I do? Killer just kept
staring at me before saying "So you noticed him but not the other one?" The hell, what does
he mean by that? Killer just sighed at my reaction. "Alright. What is it? I know damn well
you don't sigh at me for no reason." "Good grief Kid.... What I meant, is that your other
Soulmate is here even before Strawhat even came."

Eh?

EHHHHH??!!!

"Wait, what, huh?! Why didn't you tell me Killer!" I said, panicking. I mean, when did my
other Soulmate came in?

He just replied with, "Kid. Your other Soulmark is also glowing purple. Also you know that
you just need to write anything on your right arm right?" I was confused by Killer's attitude,
he's only this salty, if someone broke his things or touched his mask.

"But still, why didn't you just tell me beforehand?" He immediately replied with, "No, fuck
you. You didn't even noticed him staring at you."
And with that, he looked back at Strawhat and refused to say anything else. So my other
Soulmate is also a male? Heh, interesting Fate....

Wait, my Soulmate did WHAT?!

Law's PoV

Now both of my Soulmates are here. If I were to describe them. Then Eustass-ya is an
'Obnoxious and always act before thinking first' person, a true idiot.

While Strawhat-ya is an 'Interesting and can definitely find a way to persuade anyone' person.
Yes. Even me.

"Uhh, Captain?" Penguin called me.


"What is it?" He looked like he was worried about something. "Ok. So first, aren't you going
to help your Soulmate?"

He pointed to Strawhat-ya, who is currently standing still after the Celestial Dragon shot his
Octopus friend. "No. It looks like something interesting is going to happen if I just let it be.
Also what's your other question?" I asked.

"Ah, that. Well actually, I think that my Soulmate is also near or inside this place."

Penguin then proceeded to roll up his right sleeve and showed his right shoulder, where his
Soulmark is located. There's are Crossed Scythes and three Bullets under it, his Soulmark is
emitting a blue glow and it's very bright.

Ah, so his Soulmate is also somewhere here?

"Do you see anyone bearing your mark, Pen?" I usually never asked anything regarding his
or the others' Soulmate, but since his and mine's Soulmates are close then that means
Penguin's Soulmate is in one of the Pirates crew.

How did I came up with that theory?

Simple, when neither Pirate Crews are not near us, none of our Soulmarks glowed. Plus, if
their Soulmates are normal civilians or the Marines, which I hope they don't, then their
Soulmates will definitely stare at their Soulmarks and/or told about it to someone near them,
resulting in a commotion.

"Nah. I didn't see anyone checking their Soul..." He stopped his sentence midway. Did he saw
someone?

I looked at his eyes' direction and looked at the same direction. Why is Penguin looking at the
Kid Pirates?

I then noticed that 'Massacre Soldier' Killer is also checking his Soulmark, and it also glows
blue.

Seriously? First me, and now Penguin? What's next, a Pirate's Soulmate is a Marine that
loves to third wheel?

I looked back at both of my Soulmarks. They're emitting a very bright purple glow, I wanted
to just roll up my hoodie's sleeves and show my Soulmarks to them, but I decided to wait for
the right timing. After all, Strawhat-ya looked like he's going to do something to the Celestial
Dragon.

Third PoV
It turned out to be interesting, very interesting!

'He really went for it!' Law said in his mind as he saw Luffy punched the Celestial Dragon.

Kid just smirked at Luffy's action, while the Strawhats just deflated by this.

( But Robin is curious about Luffy's reaction, which looked like anguish, when the Celestial
Dragon talked about how Fishman and Mermaids are just fish, and that they deserve to be
slaves and listen to them. )

Kid noticed that Luffy's expression is weird and worrying, but just as he wanted to go down
the stairs, Gold wrote something to him... And the words are glowing.

'Hey, Bolt-ya. Did you also notice Strawhat-ya's expression? It's kind of worrying.' Is what
written on Kid's left wrist.
This made Kid looked around the auction house and saw Law's left wrist is also emitting the
same purple glow like his wrist. Kid stared in shock at Law, he couldn't believe that he got
two captains as his Soulmates.

Law looked at Kid, and for a while they stared at each other's eyes before Law turned to Kid's
glowing Soulmark on his arm and kissed it softly. Kid blushed at Law's actions but he started
to walk towards Law.

"Yeah, I noticed his weird expression too, Trafalgar. That expression is too deep for someone
who only witnessed his friend got shot." Kid said, answering the question Law had asked to
him.

Law got confused by Kid's answer for a second, which Kid finds cute, before saying.

"Hm... Maybe he has a personal anger towards them."

The two stayed quiet for a while before Kid suddenly grabbed Law's left hand and kissed his
palm, Law froze before blushing really hard and looked at Kid with unfocused eyes. ( Kid
loved the reaction Law gave him )

After a while everyone, except Saint Sharla, Saint Charloss (unconscious), Saint Roswald,
Law, Kid, Luffy, and their respective crews, managed to evacuate the Auction House as the
Marines will be there to capture the Pirates.
Suddenly, Saint Sharla screamed, "THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT, BITCH!! NOW DIE!".

Everyone is shocked by her sudden scream, especially the Strawhats after seeing her holding
a gun towards the mermaid's head.

"CAMIE!!" Nami, Chopper, and Brook screamed as they couldn't do anything because their
distance is too far.

But just as Saint Sharla tried to pull the trigger, a strong, dark, and cold flow of something
passed all of them, resulting in all of the Marines inside the Auction House and Saint Sharla
passed out.

( Oh, you're wondering where Saint Roswald is? He got knocked out by Usopp, because he
accidentally stepped on his face when he fell from the roof. )

Everyone who are still conscious were searching for the cold aura's source and they looked a
bit frightened by the cold aura. Suddenly, there's someone clapping from the backstage.

"Well, now isn't this a surprise?" Said the person, who is now visible.

"You can use and control your Conquerer's Haki really well. If you can use this Haki
properly, then I can assume that you can use the other two types too. Am I right, Monkey D.
Luffy?"
Immediately everyone's eyes went to Luffy who is currently staring down at Saint Sharla
with his Strawhat covering his eyes, so nobody can see Luffy's eyes nor can they see what is
his expression right now, but Law and Kid could feel the distress, anger, and wariness
radiating from Luffy, they just concluded this skill as 'Soulmate's Instinct'. Luffy looked at
the person with empty eyes,

"Dark King Rayleigh, First Mate of Captain Roger and the Swordsman of Roger Pirates.
Retired and went into hiding as soon as Captain Roger's execution is completed. Currently
working as a coating engineer, last Bounty, 4.683.000.000 Berries. Is currently married to Bar
Owner Shakky, who is an Ex-member of the Rocks Pirates and has a son named Mihawk,
who is now known as Hawkeye Mihawk."

Luffy said casually, as if he didn't just said a lot of personal information a moment ago.

To say that the audience is shocked, is an understatement.

I mean, how can a Rookie Pirate know a lot about the Roger Pirates that was disbanded 22
years ago?! He doesn't even look like he's an adult yet, even Rayleigh is surprised.

How can this kid knew about his history as a Pirate, his marital status and his son with so
much detail? Rayleigh guessed that he underestimated the kid that Shanks believed can
change the world.
The Strawhat were shocked. I mean, can you blame them? Their captain is an idiot that
doesn't think much before acting, that's what they believed at first but now? They were sure
that their captain is hiding something more.

Law and Kid were also shocked with what Luffy had said.

They knew from Luffy's emotion and expression, that he's hiding something. But this
is definitely not what they were thinking. After a few minutes of tranquil silence, someone
from one of the seats laughed really hard.

"AHAHAHA!!! Look at their faces Reimu, they're so shocked that Luffy knows a lot of past
information, but I guess it's understandable that they don't get it."

Said a girl. "Now, now Jiro. Keep track of your words or else your brother will be in quite a
lot of trouble." The other lady girl said.

Everyone, except Luffy and Rayleigh, looked at the two girls, Jiro and Reimu, talking with
each other.

"Daughter of The Sky, Admiral Ryosaku. What's an Admiral doing in a Human Auction
House and disguising as a civilian?" Law said smirking, while raising his guard. ( But deep
down, he's surprised and happy hearing the name Reimu again )

When Law said that, Kid, his crew, and Law's crew stared at the blonde girl.
"Huh?" Jiro looked at Law confused, "Is that even a question? I'm here to see if anything
interesting happened, and it sure did."

She looked at Luffy "Thanks for punching and knocking out these fuckers, brother! I hate, no
despise these cocky bitches." She said to Luffy with a happy and cheerful tone, it's as if she's
waiting for someone to it.

Luffy just looked at Jiro and nodded, then he goes in front of Camie.

Kid, Law, and their respective crews jaws dropped at what Jiro said. ( And yes, Sanji blushed
when he knew she was near him the whole time )

"Camie, I need you to trust me on this okay?" Luffy said to Camie, the captured mermaid, in
a quiet but protective tone that's almost inaudible. Camie felt scared but she decided to trust
Luffy. She nodded at him, signaling him that she trusted him.

Carefully, Luffy pulled out a pin and moved his hands closer to the collar that is locked on
Camie's neck.

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!! THE SLAVE COLLAR IS AN EXPLOSIVE COLLAR


THAT WILL START BEEPING AND EXPLODE IF YOU'RE NOT THE SLAVE'S
OWNER!!!" Pappagu, a talking Starfish, screamed at Luffy.
The Strawhats ,mostly Nami, Sanji, Usopp, and Chopper, are shouting at Luffy to stop
whatever he's trying to do, but Luffy paid no heed to their screams and shouts, and just kept
getting his hands closer.

True to Pappagu's words, the collar started beeping, but for some reason Luffy didn't flinch at
the beeping sound and this made Camie calm and didn't panic.

When his hands reached where the explosives are located, he swiftly picked something using
the pin on the side of the collar. When the collar almost exploded, Luffy throws the collar up
in the air and it exploded mid air.

Hatchan, the octopus fishman, and Pappagu were relieved that Camie is okay, but Kid, Law,
their crew, and the Strawhats are in complete shock by Luffy's action, while Jiro, Reimu, and
Rayleigh just watched in amusement. After Luffy manages to release the collar, Law and Kid
walked up to him.

"Hey Strawhat, I must say that what you just did is quite amusing."

Kid trying to make small talks and Law just shakes his head at Kid's attempt. Luffy looked at
the both of them with curiosity in his eyes, Law and Kid finds it cute and blushed a bit at
those eyes.

Luffy scanned them and then he looked at their Soulmarks that are glowing purple, his eyes
widened a little but he immediately looked at both of his Soulmarks.
Luffy looked back at Kid and Law in the eyes and said softly, "You guys are my Soulmates."
He tilted his head to right a bit and smiled at them with his infamous 'D' smile. Law and Kid
almost died from cuteness.

Suddenly, Jiro shouted "HEY LUFFY! THE MARINES ARE HERE. YOU SHOULD GO
AND DEAL WITH THEM, I'M GOING TO FIND BONNEY. BYE!"

Luffy just waved his hand at her departure. After she said that, she flew towards the hole on
the roof flew away. Upon noticing this, Sanji immediately sprinted to the back of the Auction
House to catch up with Jiro, the others just said good luck to him before he disappeared.

"Heh. You two cuties stay here while I deal with the Marines out there. It's the least I could
do as a man I am." Kid said while smirking. Law and Luffy did not take this well as they
shouted at Kid,

"NOW HOLD IT RIGHT THERE!!" And the three proceeded to go out to fight the Marines,
while still bickering about who's going to deal with them. Killer just sighed, again, and goes
to Penguin and strike up a conversation with his Soulmate. ( Penguin is in shock, while his
fellow crewmates just laughed at him )

Sabaody Archipelago, Food Court


Jiro's PoV

Hehe! I hope that Luffy is having a nice chat with his Soulmates. Yeah I know, I didn't accept
it at first. But I've came to understand that no matter what I did, Luffy will just do whatever
he wants.

Then again.... It's understandable why Luffy hates it whenever someone wanted to control
anything he did, especially after I found out about his Birth Island's Fate in the hands of the
shitty World Government...

Yeah, he deserved to be free.

Protecting the world they say, whatever the Marines did are in the name of 'Justice', oh cut
the bullshit will ya? Ugh, why am I even thinking about this right now? I should be looking
for Bonney, she must've found Drake by now. Ah, there she is!
"BONNEY!!!" She looked up in the sky, grinning, and opened both of her arms.

Oh, was she expecting me to come and greet her? I landed at Bonney's bear hug. "Hey Jiro!
How've you been?" Bonney asked me.

"Meh... It's the usual shit, complete paperworks, meeting, getting yelled at by Dead Bird
Fleet Admiral, more paperworks, and so on. In short, it's fucking boring." I ranted to Bonney
while rubbing my head on her chest.

"Hey don't annoy Bonney, Jiro. She just arrived here." Someone said. I pouted at him "Shut
up Drake! If Bonney is seriously uncomfortable, then she'll mention it immediately. You're
may be her Soulmate, but we've known each other from a long time ago." I put my tongue
out and taunted X Drake, the said man just sighed. Oops, looks like he got some shitty
paperwork back at the SWORD HQ.

"Oh I almost forgot, here you two. I made it for you guys."

Bonney and X Drake just stared in awe at my gift, haha obviously they would be surprised.
"Jiro." X Drake said, "Where did you even get the materials to make these?!" X Drake said.
"As much as I hated the current Navy System, being an Admiral has it's own perks you
know."

I told him, well it's not like I was lying. "Oh who cares Drake, look at how pretty this is!!"
The thing that I gave them is a Golden Bracelet, for Bonney, and a Silver Earring, for Drake,
that has a tracking system, so you can track the other person's location and vise versa. Of
course it has a limit. you can only track them with 700.000.00 km.
"I have to go now Bonney, Drake." I prepared to fly before I remembered something
important, "Oh I almost forgot about it, but make sure to invite me to you guys' wedding
okay? Alright, bye!!!" I flew away from the Food Court, leaving a beet red Drake and a
blushing Bonney.

Sabaody Archipelago Grove 41, Thousand Sunny

Reimu said that she should be around here, but... I don't see any mermaid. Maybe around he-
"BAH!!"

Ok, who did that? I looked around and saw a mermaid, she has a lot of black goo enveloping
her tail and hands to the shoulder. Is that the mermaid Reimu's talking about?

"Let's see..." I crossed my hands while looking up to the sky. "Reimu said that the mermaid is
quite small, has a lot of beautiful black matter enveloping almost her entire body, except her
head, hair, and torso, she wrapped a bandage to her chest as a bra, and she will wave her hand
or her eight tentacles cutely?"
I looked back to the mermaid who is now on a closer distance from me, oh, so talking about
Reimu gained her trust. I smiled at the mermaid and waved my hand to her as a sign that I'm
not an enemy.

"Dude I can talk, I'm not some kind of an idiot Organism."....

"YOU CAN TALK?!!"

Mermaid's PoV

"YOU CAN TALK?!!" The Skypeian said,


"What the fuck! I can talk properly you brat!" Looks like she didn't like it when I called her
'brat'.

"Hey, who're you calling a brat huh!?" Is she an idiot? "Of course you! Do you see anyone
else here besides us? Also calling you brat is a true statement, you're 17, I'm 21."

She looked like she didn't believe me. "You know what? Just ask any of the Strawhats about
my age, they'll tell you the same thing."

"Yeah, sure, I'll ask them later. Anyways, what's your name? I'm Ryosuke D. Jiro."

A 'D'?! Great, now there's four of them, Kazenayagi D. Reimu, Portgas D. Ace,
Monkey D. Luffy, and now her too? I swear to Poseidon if there's one more...

"HEY!! ARE YOU LISTENING TO ME?!" Jiro shouted at me, so I shouted back at her.
"HOLY SHIT, YOU DIDN'T NEED TO SHOUT AT ME LIKE THAT!" As we kept arguing,
I noticed that someone is watching us arguing from a distance.
Art By : Me ( Miko_Akane )

"Uhh... Hi, Sanji... When did you get here?" I asked him sheepishly. Sanji just stood there,
looking at us while sweatdropping, probably because of our argument. I looked back at Jiro,
she doesn't seem to notice Sanji here yet.

Wait, what is that blue glow on her? I peered a little to Jiro's left shoulder. Oh it's just her
Soulmark that's glowing...

HER SOULMARK GLOWS?! I guess she noticed my surprised expression, because she
looked at me confused.

"What's wrong Mermaid?" Didn't I just told her my name a minute ago? "Oh nothing, I just
noticed that your Soulmark glows really bright. Also, my name's Umiyake Tafurashimi." She
looked shocked by what I just said. Didn't she noticed her Soulmark glows?
"MY SOULMARK IS WHAT?!" She immediately looked at her left shoulder, I facepalmed
at her, she really didn't noticed it glowing? What an idiot.

I turned to Sanji who's face is a bit red and he just kept looking down, there's also something
blue glowing on his left shoulder.

Hold on... Jiro's Soulmark glows blue and it's really bright, then that means her Soulmate is
very close. Sanji's face is a bit red, maybe he's blushing?, and his left shoulder has the same
blue glow as Jiro...

No fucking way. They're Soulmates?!

Wait, then does this mean that Jiro, someone younger than me has found her significant
other!? Damn, I lost to a child in terms of love.

She turned her head to where Sanji is, she finally noticed his existence. "Aren't you one of
Luffy's crewmates? Why are you here and why are you staring at me?" She asked Sanji. I
guess he didn't expect that, because he started blushing out of embarrassment when he got
caught staring by Jiro.
Art By : TheDumbestPerson

"Oh, uhm, hi, Taffy-san, Jiro-chan. I'm looking for Jiro-chan, I've been trying to find her
since she flew away from the Auction House." So he already knew that Jiro's his Soulmate?

Then why the heck Jiro haven't even noticed it ye- Wait, Jiro's an idiot, yeah that's the most
reasonable answer.

"Eh? Why are you looking for me?" She tilted her to the right a bit. it reminds me of Luffy
and his overly adorable actions and kind personality. I saw that Sanji is pinching his nose, (
He is probably nosebleeds again ) while his cheeks are visibly blushing.

"That's because... I'll just show it for you Jiro-chan." Ooh! Is he showing his Soulmark? And
true to my thinking, he proceeds to fold his left sleeve untill his left shoulder is seen. There's
very beautiful Black Squid that has some tiny droplets around it, Sanji's Soulmark is also
glowing blue just like Jiro's.
Third PoV

Jiro looked a bit confused at Sanji's action, but after she saw what he was showing at her, and
Taffy, she stared at the Black Squid, amazed.

She looks at Sanji with glimmering eyes, "So..... You're my Soulmate?" Jiro's answer made
Sanji a bit insecure, 'what if she decides to change Soulmate? What if she's disappointed at
Fate's choice for matching her up with me?

What if-' Sanji's series of 'what if's' were cut off abruptly by Jiro, who suddenly tackled him
to the ground and hugged him while rubbing her head on Sanji's collarbone. "Hmm... You
smell so good, it smells like cinnamon perfume and a bit of Tobacco from the brand 'Death'."

She said, still rubbing her head on his collarbone. Sanji just stayed still on the ground, in
shock, but hugged her back.

"Hey, hey, Sanji." Jiro asked, "Yes, Jiro-chan?" There's pause for a while before Jiro said,
"Let's go on a date, Sanji." She smiled at him. That immediately made Sanji sat up, with Jiro
in tow, he looked at Jiro in the eyes still in disbelief. "A-are you sure Jiro-chan?" Jiro looked
a bit annoyed at Sanji's answer to her request.

"Obviously! Now let's go, I'm bored~" She proceeds to drag Sanji somewhere into the
bustling Archipelago, leaving a confused Taffy at their 'conversation'.

"What the fuck? Did I just fucking became a Third Wheeler?! I give up, I'll just go back
underwater." When Taffy dived down she saw a half fishman swimming underwater too.
"Oh?" They said at the same time.

"Hi! Who are you?" The person asked her. "Oh, just call me Taffy, because my name is long
as heck, anyways who are you? You don't seem to be living in Sabaody." Taffy asked back.

"The name's Dellinger, nice to meet you Taffy!" "Nice to meet you too, Dellinger" As they
were chatting away, they didn't notice that both of their Soulmark emits an emerald green
glow.

Sabaody Amusement Park

"C'mon Sanji, or else the line will get even more longer!" Jiro said while dragging Sanji's
right arm.

Sanji just followed her lead while smiling at her antics, she acts just like his idiot captain
when he's bored. Speaking of Luffy, what the hell was that at the Auction House? The aura
surrounding him back there is just... Frightening.
WAIT! He shouldn't think about the shitty captain now, right now he has to have some with
his Soulmate, Jiro, and make some good memories. But just as he turned his head back to
look at Jiro, she was gone!

Sanji frantically looked around the Amusement Park, thankfully he saw her at the Cotton
Candy stand. He decided to wait beside her to look out for predators who would try to do
something to his precious Jiro.

Two Hours Later. Sabaody Archipelago, Grove 41


Sanji and Jiro's date ended around two and a half hour before, but it's still a good first date.
But now she misses Sanji and she wanted to looked for him, especially when she saw that her
Soulmark stopped glowing. They haven't even kissed yet!

She decided to go where the Thousand Sunny is docked at, Grove 41, and maybe ask Old
man Rayleigh about the Strawhats' whereabouts. On the way there, she met up with 'Surgeon
of Death' Trafalgar Law and Eustass 'Captain' Kid.

In the beginning, the two Pirate captains were wary of presence, but they soon just let her
join them because her Soulmate is one of the Strawhats and that her older brother is their
Soulmate.

When they got there however, all they saw is an empty grassy terrain with some craters
scattered around.

This surrounding made them worry about the Strawhats, just Jiro, and their Soulmates'
wellbeing. And that's when Jiro noticed one of the 'Warlord of The Sea' Bartholomew Kuma.
Jiro was livid when she saw the Warlord, she literally jumped in the air and kicked Kuma in
the chest, but Kuma deflected her attack.

"Where are they?" She asked angrily, which gained Law and Kid's attention. "WHERE THE
FUCK IS MY BROTHER AND HIS CREW, BARTHOLOMEW FUCKING KUMA?!!"
Law and Kid immediately understood what she's asking to the Warlord and they prepared for
a fight against the Warlord.
Kuma didn't say anything and just threw a flash bomb at their direction, which blinds them
temporarily. Jiro whipped her head around the area frantically but to no avail, there are no
signs of Kuma anywhere near them. After noticing that the Warlord is nowhere near them,
they just looked deflated, angry, and worried for their Soulmates.

Jiro is preparing to fly away, but she gave Law and Kid a communication device to talk with
her.

'Why are you even giving us these?" Kid asked, still kind of wary of her. "It's just incase
something important's happening. Plus I got an info that there's gonna be a war happening in
two weeks from now in Marineford." This shocked the both of them.

"Why is a war is going to happen, Jiro-ya?" Law asked, interested by her info.

"I don't know the details, but from what I've heard from Uncle Kuzan, the Marines managed
to capture Portgas D. Ace. So this war is definitely between the Navy VS Whitebeard."

"WHITEBEARD!?" Kid and Law said in a sync, they clearly didn't expect one of the
Whitebeard Commanders to be captured let alone a fucking war!
"But still, why do you gave us these? Is it because you didn't trust us with your Older
Brother?" Law asked Jiro. "No it's not like that. The reason I gave you guys these, is to tell
you guys if Luffy joined the war." She answered nonchalantly.

"HUH!? Why would he be joining a war between the Navy and the Whitebeard Pirates!?"
Kid asked, clearly disturbed by Jiro's words. "Oh, he didn't tell you guys? Portgas D. Ace is
our Older Brother. Well, I've said what I wanted to say so... See you guys later!" And with
that she flew away, leaving a shouting Kid and a shocked Law.

Chapter End Notes

Hello again! So uhm, I wanted to make somethings regarding the Soulmarks clear.

First, if you poke your arm with a pen, or anything you use to write to your Soulmate,
then they'll feel the same pain like you, because you poke your arm using the tip of a
pen. ( I seriously didn't know if this makes any sense )

Second, if your writings and Soulmark are glowing, then that means that your Soulmate
is somewhere near your location. And to not create a confusion, each Soulmark glowed
with different colors. Only you and your Soulmate has the same glowing color. The
more they glow, the closer you are to them.

Third, if your Soulmate dies, then their Soulmark embedded on your body will turn
black and it'll hurt really bad to the point that some people commit suicide.

Fourth, when you and your Soulmate kissed for the first time, then you'll be able to feel
whatever they're feeling. Just hold your Soulmark, and then you'll get a glimpse of their
location and felt their emotions until you stop holding your Soulmark.

💜
That's all for now, you guys can put some ideas and maybe I'll consider putting it. Thank
you for reading this chapter and I hope to see you guys next Friday. Bye

Chapter 5 : Regret and Guilt

Marineford, Grand Line


Jiro is currently on edge right now. Why you ask? First, she's in a fucking war, second, it's
her older brother's execution Portgas D. Ace, how do you think she felt when she has to
watch her own brother's execution? It's a relief for her that the Whitebeard Pirates have
decided to start a war with the Marines, so Ace's execution is still being postponed. But with
the Whitebeards here to retrieve Ace back, it means that she has no choice but to fight them,
she didn't like the idea of fighting Ace's crewmates and father captain. Sure she doesn't have
to fight them now, but who knows what kind of plan Edward 'Whitebeard' Newgate has in
mind. Jiro is currently sitting on a chair that's placed in front of the Execution Tower, while
occasionally turned head to look at Ace, she's sitting on the left with Admiral Aokiji next to
her. For now, the Pirates are still on the Ice Plateau that Aokiji had made after Whitebeard
used his Devil Fruit power to create a tsunami from each side of Marineford.

But not even one minute later, a Navy ship is falling down from the sky. Now, Jiro knew that
this war is anything but safe and normal, but this?! And what's worse is when she noticed
that there are some people that she knew falling from the sky with the ship, for example her
brother, Monkey D. Luffy. 'What is Luffy doing here?!' Jiro thought to herself. Her brother
might be a fool, but he's not an idiot. So she knew that Luffy must've gotten information from
someone considering he rarely read any newspaper now. Anyways back to Luffy... Jiro still
didn't believe at what she is witnessing, I mean who wouldn't? She just saw her brother
obliterate the Marines, and by obliterate she meant Luffy is punching, kicking, use his Devil
Fruit powers, and he even stole a sword from who knows where and started using it like a
master! Even Smokey couldn't attack that fast, when and how did Luffy knew how to use a
sword she will never know.

As Jiro watched Luffy completely leading the Pirates, she noticed that her Grandpa and Ace
are also looking at Luffy with surprised looks on their faces. Jiro just facepalmed at them and
continued to observe her brother, that's currently destroying half of the Marines, carefully.
"EXECUTE HIM NOW!!" Fleet Admiral Sengoku said, that sentence made both Luffy and
Jiro whipped their heads at the Execution Tower and tensed up. 'No, no! Why did Fleet
Admiral Sengoku changed the plan?!' Jiro screamed in her mind. Aokiji could feel her
anxiety coming out of Jiro, but the other two? They didn't even care about anything and just
focused on the war happening down there. Jiro almost jumped down from her seat to help
Ace, when she remembered that the other Admirals are near her, so she sat still on her chair
while gritting her teeth.

Aokiji read Jiro's expression and proceeded to froze both of her hands on the chair, Jiro is
caught off guard by this but she knew this had to be done. As the executioneers are going to
cut Ace's head off, Luffy screamed "STOP!!!" And a strong cold wind passes the entire
Marineford, making most of the combatants passed out. Both the Pirates and Marines are
surprised by this sudden wind, but most of them instantly knew that the strong wind is
Conqueror's Haki. Ace, Garp, and Jiro are in shock because of this, they all knew that Luffy
is not just a mere child trying to achieve his dream, but god damn Conqueror? And strong
one at that. When Luffy opened his eyes back, he noticed that there are a lot of people on the
ground, but he paid no mind to them, Ace is his top priority right now.
Three Hours Later

Luffy's PoV

Haha! Ace is finally free from that stupid tower, now all we need to do is to run away from
here and escape. All of the other Pirates immediately retreated back to the shore while some
of the Whitebeard Pirates tried to convince Giant Old Man to go back to the Giant Whale
ship, I think the ship's name is Moby Dick. Suddenly, Ace jumped on my back and attacked
the Marines that are shooting us. "WHOA! You can't attack Luffy, he's my brother and I'll do
anything to protect him." Ace said to the Marines. I smiled at Ace's revelation to those
Marines, we've promised that we will protect each other's backs. I frowned at that thought, I
turned my head towards Jiro and frowned. Both me and Ace became Pirates to be free of any
rules, while Jiro became a Marine. This made our relationship becomes even more
complicated.

As we ran and ran, more Marine soldiers are starting to chase us but they all have to fight
Ace's comrades first. "Hey Ace, can I ask you something?" I said trying to make Ace's focus
away from this horrible war, "Sure, what is it Luffy?" He asked softly at me. "I was
wondering.... if we escaped and survived this war, will you meet both of my Soulmates?"
Ace's face contorted a confused and worried look, I understand why. It's either because of my
Soulmates, or because I used the word 'if' instead of 'when'. I want to remind him that there'll
be a lot of sacrifices in a war, and I know that there'll be trouble coming our way if we kept
on running like this. How I wished Tora-o and Giza-o are here with me, maybe Tora-o can
cure Giant Old Man's sickness, while Giza-o had fun destroying the Marines here.

"Sure, I also need to ask them a few questions." He said it in his dark tone, uh oh, that's bad
news, I'll have to inform Tora-o and Giza-o about this. "Ace, you better don't do anything
stupid to them." I threatened, not really. He just nodded at that and kept running while
attacking the Marines that are too close to us. Suddenly, Giant Old Man gave an order to his
crew that shocked me, "NOW LISTEN ALL YOU WHITEBEARD PIRATES!" All of them
immediately looked and him. "You and I will part ways here. Everyone, survive and get to
the New World at any cost! I am a remnant from the Old Times. There is no Ship that can
bear me into the New Era. Don't look back. Because the Era is Changing." He then took a
deep breath and says, "THE ONE PIECE IS-" Yeah, no. I covered my ears before Giant Old
Man finishes his sentence.

Suddenly, there's a very hot wave coming from our backs, I turned around and saw Akainu
running towards us with both of his hands turned into Magma. "WHERE DO YOU BOTH
THINK YOU'RE GOING?! SONS OF THE EVIL!" Akainu shouted at us. I ignored him and
kept running towards the shore, while Ace flipped the bird at him. "As soon as you rescue
'Fire Fist' Ace, you cat and run. The Whitebeard Pirates must be cowards."Akainu said. This
made Ace stopped running and slowly turned around to face Akainu, "What, did you just
say?" He said angrily. Oh no, Ace will fight him, Ace may be strong, but with his current
condition it's impossible. I tried to stop him, but my legs suddenly shakes violently and I fell
to the ground. Ace looked like was going pounce at Akainu in any moment, "What the fuck
did you just said about the Whitebeards, you asshole?!".

"Well, Whitebeard is just a loser from the old times. Gold Roger conquered the world and
ushered in the New Era by sacrificing himself. But he was true to his name as the Pirate
King, what has Whitebeard done? He was satisfied by being a big fish in a little, family
barrel." That made Ace finally snapped at started to attack Akainu, I screamed at him to stop
and just retreat back but he wouldn't listen to anything I said. "Some fools say he was
keeping peace on various Islands. But if you ask me, he's keeping the lightweights in fear of
him." Akainu said mockingly, then he continued to barrage attacks at Ace. When I wanted to
scream at Ace again, I felt something fell out of my Strawhat, "Ah, Ace's Vivre Card fell." I
tried to grab it but it just kept moving towards Ace.

"Even after the Pirate King's death, Whitebeard could never become the next Pirate King."
Akainu said, trying to taunt Ace which unfortunately, he succeeded. "WHAT DID YOU
SAY?!!" Ace shouted at him, "What? Did I say anything wrong? He's a poor man when you
think of it, roamed the Sea with a fake family, couldn't become the Pirate King, and should I
say more of his loser traits? " Akainu smirked at Ace, which added to his exploding fury.
'Which part of you that doesn't understand the meaning of run, Ace?!' I screamed mentally at
him. "Take that back, you asshole!" Ace then furiously shoots Flame Bullets at Akainu, but it
obviously doesn't work considering Akainu is also a Logia user. "ACE! WHICH PART OF
FUCKING RUN, THAT YOU DIDN'T UNDERSTAND!!?" Some Pirates shouted at Ace,
begging him to actually listen to them.

Akainu took this opportunity to anger Ace even more, "I mean, compared to your father,
Gold Roger, Whitebeard is nothing but a man that lives behind the Pirate King's shadow,
Whitebeard is, and always be the number two and a loser." I glared at Akainu. Ok, now that's
just a low blow, firstly, Giant Old Man didn't even want to be the Pirate King, did he missed
that information in one of their stupid meeting or something? Secondly, how dare he insult
Ace's father figure! Sure, Ace, Giant Old Man, and his entire crew are not related by blood,
but they're connected by bond. That's something stronger than a blood related family. All
Giant Old Man wanted is a family, something he couldn't have when he was still a child, why
can't this crazy Magma understa- Wait... Does Akainu even have a family?

"Shut up!" Ace retorted back at Akainu's insult to his father figure, "He's a great man, way
better than my deadbeat father. And let me tell you, this era will be named 'Whitebeard'!!" At
this point I didn't even know what to say to my idiot older brother, so I just turned my head to
the side to look at Jiro sitting while being... Chained up, by Ice, at her chair in front of the
Execution Tower, I looked around to find the Ice Freezer Guy but it looks like he's not here.
She looked at Akainu with Pure Hatred, and then at Ace with 'Run, you idiot!' look. Yeah, I
feel you too little sister, our idiot brother is fighting someone when he was in a terrible
condition. "Heh, at least he managed to become the Pirate King and never made a so called
'family' like Whitebeard, he's just a delusional Old Man, believing that his crew is his
family."
Akainu then shoots meteorite like magma towards Ace, which he dodged but he almost fell
to the ground. "We are a real family! We're connected by bond, that's stronger than anything
in the world!", "Oh really? Then why did one of your 'brother' fell for my line and stabbed his
own 'Father'?" Ace did not take that lightly, he furiously made a giant ball of Fire and throws
it towards Akainu. Unfortunately, Akainu wrapped the Fire ball in Magma and then he
throws it back to Ace who couldn't dodge in time, which made his left arm gravely injured.
"ACK!!!" Ace screamed. I froze and tried to stand up but failed, Jiro also looked like she
wanted to jump down from her chair and hug Ace. I wanted to go to Ace's side, but this Vivre
Card wouldn't stay still!

Third PoV

Akainu attacked Ace, by throwing Magma at him, relentlessly. "I don't care if the other
Pirates escapes from this place, but you two must die!!" Ace angrily answered back,
"Bullshit! You're killing us just because of our Lineage?! Then what if both me and my
brother are normal civilians then?" Akainu laughed darkly at Ace's question, "Of course I
would. You two are the Sons from the embodiment of Evil. You're the Pirate King's Son,
while StrawHat is the son of Revolutionary Dragon. No matter what you guys' status are,
whether you both are Civilians or Marines, I will hunt and kill you both myself." This answer
disgusts Ace, "Disgusting. Even though we're law abiding citizens, in another universe, you'd
still kill us? How pathetic, and you Marines said that you guys are the embodiment of
'Justice' I swear, what the hell did my sister see in this fucking job that's full of lies."

Akainu glared menacingly at Ace, and he punches Ace with a Haki coated fist. Ace crossed
his arms in front of him to guard himself, but he still flew a little bit by Akainu's Haki coated
punch and fell to the ground. Akainu then covered his entire right arm in Magma, Ace glared
at him. Jiro is also glaring at Akainu, but at the same time she's still struggling to release both
of her arms from the makeshift Ice Handcuffs. "You know Fire Fist, if I can't kill the both of
you. Then the least I could do is to kill one of you." Ace and Jiro are confused by Akainu's
words, but they knew it's going to be bad. "What the fuck do you think you're doing?" Ace
asked darkly at him. Akainu just smirked at Ace and said, "Watch what I will do."

At first, Ace is preparing himself for an impact. But he stared at where Akainu's eyes were
looking at, when he noticed what Akainu is actually targeting at he froze. 'He's targeting
Luffy!' Just as Ace had figured it out, Akainu dashed past Ace and lifted his right hand,
preparing for his attack towards his little brother. Luffy, who had just managed to grab Ace's
Vivre Card back, felt a very strong and hot aura wave getting closer to him. He looked up and
saw Akainu coming towards him with his right hand covered in Magma, ready to punch him
at any moment. Luffy's eyes widened at Akainu's incoming attack towards him, Jiro
screamed at Akainu to stop and her makeshift handcuffs started to form cracks. "LUFFY!"
Ace screamed, trying to make his brother move. But Luffy couldn't move, his body is too
exhausted to move. Seeing Luffy couldn't move, Ace ran past Akainu.

Ace then jumps in front of Luffy, and..... He took the hit that was supposed to hit Luffy. The
Magma Fist goes right through Ace's torso and then goes out in front of Luffy. Ace coughed
up blood while Luffy and Jiro just stared in shock, both of them just saw their older brother's
lower body part got melted. The red beaded Necklace that Ace always wore broke, and the
beads got scattered by the sudden impact. "A-Ace..?" Luffy whispered slowly, still processing
what he had just witnessed. Jiro is not in a better state either. Just as she managed to break the
handcuffs, she saw Ace's chest burning and his eyes are foggy. Then Akainu pulled out his
right arm slowly to make it even more painful for Ace, his body swayed and almost fell to the
ground, but Luffy managed to catch Ace before he fell.

"ACE!!!" Luffy screamed, his scream made everyone turned their heads towards Luffy and
they all gasped, but some of the Pirates are staring in disbelief and shouting Ace's name, at
what they all witnessed. Some of the Whitebeard Commanders tried to run to where Ace and
Luffy are, but they were all blocked by the Marines. Their expressions varies, from the
Pirates that are crying, angry, in guilt, and some even starting to shout incoherent words. On
the other hand, the Marines are crying out of joy because the 'Fire Fist' Ace has finally taken
cared of, by that it means the fiery execution by Donut Lover Akainu. Whitebeard who
noticed that his captured son's life will end any time soon, immediately went to a rage. He
unleashed a strong wave of Conqueror's Haki, making a lot of cracks on the ground and
almost all of the people there passed out.

Meanwhile, Marco eyes started to let out some tears, how can he not cry? Ace, his
Soulmate, will soon die in this damnable War Zone, and he couldn't do anything to stop it.
Vista who is trying to unlock the Seastone Handcuffs from Marco, but he suddenly noticed
Marco's Soulmark is slowly turning black. "Marco... Your Soulmark.." Vista said slowly,
Marco whipped his head to his left palm. His Soulmark, that is a Heart shaped Fire with some
blue flame on the edge of the Heart, is turning black and he felt a sharp pain coming from it.
Marco held his Soulmark his only reminder of Ace's existence tightly, and as if Ace felt
Marco's warm hands, he then held his right palm that's almost entirely burned to crisp. Ace's
Soulmark is a majestic Aqua Diamond that has some Cross Symbol on it, he then stroked his
Soulmark, as if telling Marco that it's fine.

"Hey, Ace... This isn't funny you know.. Why are you bleeding a lot? Why are your eyes
foggy? Why-why...*Hiccups* wHy d-do yoU LOok liKe y-you're... dying?" Luffy cried to
Ace. Ace couldn't say anything back to him, so he just hugged Luffy ,with his uninjured left
hand, tightly. Ace looked at Luffy softly and patted his hair while saying, "..I can't raise my
voice anymore, too weak." Luffy's voice hitched at this, but he decided to let his older brother
finish his last sentence. "Could you tell everyone else what I'm about to say to you?" Luffy
nodded his head slowly to not hurt Ace evenmore than he already is. "Pops... My family...
Jiro, Sabo.. And you, Luffy... thank you for caring about someone like me, this Good-for-
Nothing man which this world never wanted, who has such Bad Blood in his Veins... Thank
you.. *Gasp* FOR LOVING ME!!"

"W-what are you saying Ace!? You're going to be okay, We should treat your injuries. I can-
" Ace hugs Luffy even tighter than before, "There's nothing you can do Luffy... I've already
accepted my Fate." Luffy just froze at Ace's words, he looked at both of his hands, it's
covered in Ace's blood. 'No, no, nonononononononono, it's all my fault. If only I dodged in
time. If only I can fight back. If only I can still move...
it'smyfaultit'smyfaultit'smyfaultit'smyfaultit's-' "Luffy.." Ace said quietly, that made Luffy
broke out of his almost broken mind. "Luffy, can you hear me..?" Luffy just nodded while
sniffling a bit, Ace smiled weakly at that. "Listen, what am I about to *Cough* to say, you
must remember it okay?"Luffy answered with a weak nod, "Be happy and continue to pursue
your dream, don't let the nightmares from the past haunts you forever. You're strong, you
have your crew, your friends, and your Soulmates..." Ace took a deep breath for a moment.

"Ah, speaking of Soulmate, can you tell Marco that 'I'll always be in his heart, even
though... I'm not in this world anymore." Luffy cried quietly at Ace's request, but he nodded
and said, "Alright, I'll tell the Phoenix Guy about this, just, just stay with me, with us Ace,
please.." At this point Ace couldn't even talk anymore, so he just hugged his precious little
brother until he departed. "ACE!!" Marco yelled, blocking an incoming attack from Akainu.
Vista is also there with Marco, they both fought Akainu for a while before Vista signaled to
Marco to go where Ace is. Marco thanked Vista and kneeled beside Ace, he then stroked
Ace's hair while sobbing. Luffy noticed that Ace couldn't talk anymore, his mind replays
everything that happened and it's always stuck on where Ace got melted, Luffy just let his
tears pour out while blaming himself for Ace's injury.

Ace didn't want both of them to stay grieving over his pathetic life, so he used all of his
remaining energy and said with a weak voice, "I.. Love you.. guys, stay strong for... Me, will
ya?" And with that, he fell to the ground, smiling. Luffy and Marco froze in shock, Garp
stared at Ace's lifeless body, while Jiro fell down to her knees and tears started to flow from
her beautiful Emerald Eyes. Suddenly, Luffy looked up to the sky and cried, not a quiet one,
but a loud cry that could be heard from anywhere on Marineford. Everyone looked at where
the cry is located, and they all gasped at Ace's dead body. Whitebeard, who got even more
enraged by the fact that his son had died from these disgusting Marines, creates a strong
earthquake. That, added with Luffy's loud and sorrowful cry, made people knew that
something very bad, had just happened here.

Three Hours Ago

Law's PoV
I was watching the Paramount War live from Sabaody with Eustass-ya, so we can get to
know each other without flipping at the other. As we were talking about our own adventures,
suddenly there's a Navy ship falling from the sky. At first we didn't much of it, but then we
saw some people falling down along side the ship and Strawhat-ya is also falling down with
the others. ( It seems like most of the people falling down are prisoners? Did Strawhat-ya got
captured or something? ) We instantly jumped off the roof we were sitting at and called out to
our crew to set the course to Marineford immediately. Just as we're preparing to set sail, the
Communication Device that Jiro-ya gave me, and Eustass-ya, started to make a ringing
sound. "Hello, Trafalgar, Eustass, can you both hear me?" Jiro-ya said. "Loud and clear Jiro-
ya. Is there anything important?" "Yes. Have you guys watched the Livestream?"

Oh, so she meant Strawhat-ya's abnormal arrival. "Yeah, we've seen Strawhat-ya falling
down with some prisoners." I heard Jiro-ya sighed and muttering 'You idiot brother' On the
other side of the line. "About that... Luffy broke into Impel Down to rescue Ace, and as you
can see from the livestream... He managed to escape and even brought some dangerous
people like 'Okama King' Ivankov and Ex-Warlord of The Sea, Crocodile. What..? He did
WHAT??!!! "HEY! You got to be kidding me, he broke into Impel Down all by himself?!"
Eustass-ya shouted at her. "Yeah.. I know it's hard to believe, but it's the truth. Heck, even I
still didn't believe it, but there's too much evidence of it that I can't deny it anymore." He
fucking escaped from the most guarded prison in the world!? Ok, what the hell, the chance of
someone escaping alone is close to 0, but he escaped with all of the prisoners?... Heh..
Incredible.

I took a deep breath and asked Eustass-ya to go to where our ships at first and I'll join him
later. "Is.. Is there anything else you wanted to tell us, Jiro-ya?" I asked her. "Hmm... Nah,
nothing more- ah, HEY! Don't take my pencil, you asshole! *Sounds of arguing and
grabbing something* Yup, nothing more- "'FIRE FIST' HAS ESCAPED, GET HIM!!" Oh,
yeah there's that too. Bye!" "OI! Wait-" And she hung up. Damnit. I should go now,
Strawhat-ya is in danger. As I was walking towards the Victoria Punk and Polar Tang, I saw
Eustass-ya bickering with Penguin. Goodness, will they stop being children and actually start
preparing to sail?

Present Time

We.... We're too late. 'Fire Fist' Ace had passed away before we came, and there are two
people near him. Marco the Phoenix and Strawhat-ya. No, was he.. was he there when 'Fire
Fist' died? Did he saw.. How 'Fire Fist' died? I looked towards the Victoria Punk's deck, and
Eustass-ya with Killer-ya are on the deck, looking at where Strawhat-ya is. "..He saw it,
didn't he?" Killer-ya got confused by Eustass-ya's words, "What do you mean, Kid?"
"Strawhat is there when 'Fire Fist' last moments, he knew how 'Fire Fist' die... Because he's in
front of 'Fire Fist' when he died." Killer-ya froze at that. Well I can't blame him, I've lost my
loved ones before too, but I've never seen how they died, I only knew the way they died. But
Strawhat-ya had seen how 'Fire Fist' die and he's with 'Fire Fist' at his last moments. As we
got closer, we all heard a loud and heart wrenching cry. It's Strawhat-ya's cry.. He's looking at
the sky, but his eyes are rolled to the back.

We all just froze at what we saw, Marineford is almost completely destroyed, there's a lot of
blood and craters all over the place. Some of the Marines must've noticed us, because one
Marine shouted, "TRAFALGAR LAW AND EUSTASS 'CAPTAIN' KID ARE ON THE
WEST SIDE OF MARINEFORD!!!" I glared really hard on that fucking asshole, then
Eustass-ya ordered his crew to jump down to the battlefield, with him and his spinning
chunks of irons ( Where did he even get these? ) and they all started attacking like predators
hunting for their prey. I stared at Strawhat-ya again, his body look exhausted and there's a lot
of blood flowing out. All of the sudden, one of the Admiral turned both of his arms into
Magma and he started walking towards Strawhat-ya. Oh, NO YOU DON'T! "ROOM!!" I
then teleported Strawhat-ya and Phoenix-ya near me.

Phoenix-ya looked around and he stared at me, confused. "Trafalgar Law..? Why are you
here-yoi?" "I'm here for my youngest Soulmate." Now he looked even more confused.
"Soulmate? Youngest? What do you mean...." He stared at Strawhat-ya before he looked back
at me just nodded. When I took a closer look at Strawhat-ya my eyes widened instantly, his
body is almost completely covered in blood and there's a flow of blood coming out of his
head. "WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING, FILTHY PIRATE?!!" Fuck, it's Admiral
Akainu. I tried to create a 'Room', but there's a ton of strings trying to attack me. "Fufufufu.
My, this day is really my lucky day. Now.." A lot of strings started to form behind him "Let's
play a game. Shall we, Law?"

FUCK! First an Admiral, and now him!? I have to run, but what about Strawhat-ya?
"TRAFALGAR!" I looked to my left to see Strawhat-ya being carried by 'First Son of the
Sea' Jinbei. "RUN NOW, I'LL TAKE CARE OF LUFFY!!" So they knew each other? But
when did they- WHOA! That string almost cut off my right arm. "Fufu, where do you think
you're going, Law?" Ugh, this Oversized Girly pop Bird, why can't you just let me check my
Soulmate??! "Back to my ship obviously, Doflamingo." "And did you think that I'll let you
go that easily? You've caused me a lot of problems for the last 14 years, Law. And it's time to
go back." What the hell does he mean by 'back'? Oh wait... Hehe, I have an idea. I looked at
where Whitebeard is. His condition is critical, but he can still be saved.

I took a deep breath and shouted "I CAN SAVE WHITEBEARD'S LIFE. BUT I NEED
HELP TO GET RID OF THIS OVERSIZED PINK BITCH FIRST!!" Aaand... Doflamingo is
under a lot of people, take that. Now let's do some operations, this'll be an interesting one. I
used a 'Room' to teleport near Whitebeard, he noticed me and stared at me in the eyes, uhm...
Why is he looking at me like that? "Trafalgar Law... You better make sure to check up on my
family too." He said, threateningly. I trembled a bit, but I just nodded at his request. After all,
when will I get the opportunity to check the entirety of the Whitebeard Pirates?

As I was preparing to operate one of the oldest living Legend, there's a loud scream coming
towards the Sea. "DON'T YOU FUCKING DARE TO HURT LUFFY MORE, YOU
MAGMA ASSHOLE!!" I looked towards the source of the scream, and I saw a creature with
two Tentacles behind it.
Art By : Me ( Miko_Akane )

Wait, isn't that Strawhat-ya's Mermaid friend? But is she even a Mermaid? She looks more
like an Octopus. Not like I'm complaining, she throws Icicle and Poisonous Black Goo at
Admiral Akainu. "Hey, Trafalgar!" I turned around and saw Eustass-ya walking towards me,
oh he better not have any deep injuries. "What's wrong? Did you get hurt or anything?" He
just chuckled at my question, why the hell he chuckled?! "What's so funny, Eustass-ya?"
"Nah, nothing, I saw you getting attacked by Doflamingo, so I just wanted to check up on
you."W-wha.." I can feel my face heating up at Eustass-ya's words. "Hey, your face is heating
up. Do you have a fever?" His hand touched my forehead...

Third PoV

When Kid's hand touched Law's forehead, he backed up while looking down. "Huh? What's
wrong?" Law took a second before looking at Kid, "Nothing. Your action just surprised me,
that's all." Kid nodded at Law and then continues to wreak havoc on the battlefield with his
crew. "Ok... What the fuck is happening here-yoi?" Law turned around and saw Marco flying
towards them. "Oh, Phoenix-ya. I'm just operating Whitebeard." Marco took one look at
Whitebeard and said, "I know that you used your Devil Fruit's Ability to operate Pops. But, I
can't really wrap my head on an operation that cuts one's body into pieces and is still alive."
Law smirked at Marco's opinion. "Then I guess you'll have to get used to it."

"WHY ARE YOU GUYS LETTING THE PIRATES WREAK EVEN MORE HAVOC?!
CAPTURE ALL OF THEM!" Sengoku screamed. "Heh, you suck at this Senny." Garp said,
half mocking. "Shut up, Garp. After this War ended, I'll retire immediately." "Oh really?
Well, guess there'd be no one to stop me from having a 'chat' with that Magma asshole." Garp
said darkly. Sengoku couldn't get angry at him for saying that, I mean, Akainu killed one of
Garp's Grandson, possibly traumatized his other Grandson and Granddaughter, and made a
lifelong scar on his Straw Hatted Grandson's chest. Yeah... Sengoku couldn't get angry at
Garp for saying that.

Thirty Minutes Later

"Ok.. Can someone explain to me, what had just happened." Shanks said, confused by the
state of Marineford right now. Well, who wouldn't? When he and his crew arrived at
Marineford, almost of the entire place is just dust, traces of blood, giant craters, and frozen
water. Meanwhile, on the other side of ,still intact, Marineford, the Moby Dick is currently
setting sail, with some of the Commanders carrying something covered in White Cloth.
Shanks noticed Whitebeard glaring darkly at the Marines. 'Did they failed to save Ace?'
Shanks spoke loudly in his mind.

"AAAAHHH!!! FUCK YOU! FUCK YOU! LET ME GO, YOU ASSHOLES!!!" Someone
screamed. Shanks and his crew whipped their heads at the source, and saw Jiro handcuffed
with two Vice Admirals beside her, she's screaming and cursing at the Vice Admirals to let
her go. 'Okay... So something bad has definitely happened before I came' Shanks facepalmed
at Jiro. "What are you doing here, Red-Haired Shanks?!" One of the Vice Admirals shouted
at him. "I'm here to stop the War." Shanks spoke briefly. "Who the hell do you think you
are?! And you can't stop it, Admiral Akainu had managed to kill 'Fire Fist' Ace!!" Shanks'
eyes grew at that. 'I see... So that thing the Commanders are carrying is..'

"That's enough, Vice Admiral. Fine, I'll let you have your way this time, Red-Hair." All of
the Marines, except Vice Admiral Garp and Admiral Jiro, were shocked by Fleet Admiral
Sengoku's words. "B-but, why Fleet Admiral? They're just Pirates, why should we listen to
them!?" A Commodore spoke for the other Marines. "We couldn't fight anymore. Almost of
the entirety of Marineford has turned to dust, the Blackbeard Pirates' sudden attack, and the
fact that we let four of the Worst Generation flee from this place is more than enough proof
that we didn't we have any power to fight anymore.

'So Luffy's not the only one here? Wait... Don't tell that the other three were his Soulmate-
But Luffy only has two Soulmark on both of his arm..' Shanks is having an internal argument
with his mind that his crew felt like they can hear about what he's thinking about. "C'mon
Captain we have things to do here, stop arguing with your mind about Luffy's Soulmates."
Shanks' First Mate said to him. "Fine, fine, I'll go Benn." Shanks grumbled at his husband
First Mate. Only to stop at the sight of something black swimming near Jiro. "Dude, calm
down. They're not the ones who did it." The Octopus said, "Oh, shut up Taffy! Where's that
Magma asshole?! I'll turn him into a donut!" Jiro shouted, Shanks just sweatdropped at her.

Chapter 6 : Never Ending Bond

Amazon Lily, Calm Belt

Law and Kid had tried everything to make Luffy speak, but it ended up in vain as he didn't
spoke a single word after Jinbei brought him back from his mental breakdown. They did not
like seeing Luffy so... Broken. He used to always smile so bright, even when his life is in
danger, but the Luffy they are looking at right now is just an empty shell of what the
Sunshine Boy used to be. And to make matters worse, Luffy even started to cut his wrists
every night. At first, no one noticed anything because Luffy's wrists are still covered in
bandages. But one night, Kid decided to look for Luffy near Amazon Lily's cliff. There,
found Luffy, holding a bloodied knife with his body swaying towards the Ocean.

Kid froze before he dashed towards Luffy when saw his body slowly fell, if Kid wasn't there
in time, Luffy could've fell to the Ocean and drowned. "Oi, Wake up! What's gotten into
you?!" Realizing that he won't get answer, Kid clicked his tongue and carried Luffy back to
the Polar Tang. Upon arriving, Law's gut feeling was telling him, that something was wrong.
"EUSTASS-YA! What happened? Where's Strawhat-ya?!" Law was panicking inside, but he
has to keep his composure, panicking won't do any good. "I got him here... Hey, can I talk to
you after you treated Strawhat's wounds? It's important." Ah, so this is the source of his bad
feeling.

After Law had dressed all of Luffy's wounds, he goes to Kid's room in the Victoria Punk.
"So? What it is that you wanted to tell me?" Law might be stoic on the outside, but he's
worried on the inside, and that worriness is added when he saw Kid's rather dark face. ".. He
fucking cuts himself." Is all Kid said. Law is confused by Kid's words, but he connected the
dots and Law could feel his eyes grew bigger. "Strawhat-ya cuts himself?!" Kid just nodded
at Law, he couldn't bring himself to talk about it anymore. Law felt his eyes started to create
tiny droplets of tears, Kid, who sensed his emotion, hugged Law tightly while whispering,
"It's ok. We will help him stand up on his own feet again, right, Trafalgar?" "Yeah, I will not
let my Soulmates down, and I also hate to operate the same person twice." They both laughed
at that, tomorrow, they'll make sure that Luffy will be back to how he used to be.

Next Day

Both Kid and Law went to the Guest Room inside the Polar Tang to have a talk with Luffy.
When they opened the door, Luffy was staring out of the window while humming a soft but
lovely tune. Both of them listened to Luffy's humming, they felt a sudden sense of calmness
washed up on them. When he's done humming the tone, Luffy felt some people staring at
him, so her turned around and saw Law, and Kid. "Ah, hello. Do you both want me to leave
the ship?" Luffy asked, his tone sounded a bit... Scared. Law and Kid immediately ran to
Luffy and hugged him, Luffy froze for a moment but he suddenly cried and stayed still. "Is..
something wrong? I apologize if I did anything wrong, so please.. Please don't hurt me,
please.." Law and Kid froze at Luffy's words, begging them to not hurt him, but why would
they even hurt him, unless...Somebody had hurt him before.

"We won't hurt you Strawhat-ya. We just wanted to talk and spend sometime with you." Kid
then continues, "Like Trafalgar said, we only wanted to spend time with you, we won't hurt
you, so you can relax." Upon hearing their words, Luffy felt at ease, so he let himself relaxed
and hugged them back. After a few minutes, Luffy let go from their hug and asked, "Sorry. I
didn't made you guys uncomfortable, did I?" "No, you didn't do anything wrong Strawhat.
But, we wanted to talk to you about something." Kid said, Luffy felt a shiver going down
through his spine, 'So they're going to ask about that.' He thought. Luffy knew this would
happen eventually, but he didn't expect it to be today.

"What is it?" Luffy asked, he hoped that his gut feeling's wrong, because he can't lie to save
his own life. Law stared at Luffy with unreadable eyes, "Last night, Eustass-ya found you
standing on cliff, dangerously, close to the Ocean. And he saw your body started to sway, and
caught your body before it fell to the Sea. I also saw wounds on both of your wrists, those
wounds are very clean and you couldn't get those clean and straight lines of scars from a
,practically massacre, war. So tell us the truth, why are you cutting yourself?" And there it
was, Luffy's guts were right, They knew. And he couldn't hide it anymore. So he took a deep
breath, looked at Law and Kid in the eyes, and said,
"I don't know. I just felt the knife calling to me and used it to cut myself. Whenever I cut, a
voice said 'This is not enough to compensate your weakness for not being able to save Ace
and them. Cut more, you waste of space.' and other voices would say something like, 'You
can't save Ace and them, you're pathetic.' 'Why are you even still alive? You should die so
Ace and them could finally rest without watching your idiot self destroying other people's
lives. 'Your Soulmates deserve better than you, why are you expecting them to be happy
with your weird and ugly self?' And I just agreed to these voices, because I couldn't think of
anything while I'm cutting myself."

Law and Kid didn't know what to say. On one hand, they wanted to tell Luffy that he's not
weak, and that they are happy that Luffy shares this personal information to them. But on the
other hand, they wanted to know what is the trigger for him to start degrading himself and
hearing voices that shouldn't be there. But they're also wondering, who's them? Oh well,
they're going to ask it later on a better timing, Luffy's self harm problem came first. "I see..
Do you still hear these voices now, Strawhat-ya?" Law asked, he wanted to find the most
comfortable way for Luffy to stop harming himself and erase all of his guilt that he should've
not carry. Sure, if he's making his crew angry then that's his fault, but Ace's, and them, death
is not his fault, he couldn't stop it. He can't control the entire war.

"No. I didn't hear anything whenever I'm near my crew, friends, or you guys." This response
made Law's mind slightly calm. "Don't listen to those stupid voices, they only attack you
when you were in your lowest state, not because you're weak Strawhat." Kid chimed in. Kid's
words made Luffy smiled at him, "Is that so? Well then, I'll try to close my ear whenever
these voices comes." Kid grinned. His words made both him and Law felt like their words
helped Luffy, even though it's not entirely enough to stop it. Then an idea came into Law's
mind. Law turned his head to Kid and Luffy, "Hey Strawhat-ya, Eustass-ya." "Yeah? What's
up?" They both answered at the same time. Law finds it endearing.

"I know that this is not the most suitable place, but do you both want to go on a date? It's
just walking around the Island." Luffy beamed, like literally, while Kid agreed to Law's
request, and the three of them decided that the date will be in 2 hours near the Mountains of
this Island.

Two Hours Later

Kid is currently sitting beside a rock while looking at the Sea. Law, who has finished
reading a book, walks towards Kid. "Yo, Eustass-ya." Law called. Kid looks up at Law,
"You're finally here. Where's Strawhat?" "Wait he's not here yet?" They immediately
searched for Luffy, who knows what is he doing right now. They decided to split up, Kid to
the West and Law to the East.

Kid's PoV
SHIT! I should've asked him to stay with me or Trafalgar after our talk, you better not do
anything like that again Strawhat! I kept running while looking left and right, I then stopped
to catch my breath, damnit! Where the hell could Strawhat be?! As I was still catching my
breath, I heard faint sounds of someone, that could be his voice! I ran towards the voice, but I
slowed down to not make Strawhat startled, he's already really sensitive at this point and it's
worrying. I slowly walked past the bushes and trees, the voice is getting louder, "Sekai wo
teki ni shi nagara. Kuzuresou na ashi de fumitodomaru, yeah." Huh? Is he singing? I finally
saw him singing alone near the cliff that I had found his last night.

His voice is very calming, when'd he learn to sing like this? Or maybe it's passed down from
his parents? "Ato sukoshi dake ugoite kure. Saa, fukkatsu da mezame no toki ga kita, ima"
Strawhat then stopped for a second, "Saa, fukkatsu no da mezame no toki ga kita, ima." He's
done already? Guess I came too late, "Yes, you came too late Eustass-ya. I've been here even
before Strawhat-ya started singing." Trafalgar said... Wait.. TRAFALGAR!? I whipped my
head to the right, and there he was, Trafalgar, standing while crossing his arm. "When the hell
did you get here?!" I half whispered, I still remember that Strawhat's still here. "Huh?"
Trafalgar said.

Law's PoV

"Huh?" Is what I said to Eustass-ya. How can he not notice me here? "Like I said, I've been
here for quite a long time.. Long enough to notice that tail near the cliff." Eustass-ya looked
at me confused, so I sighed and pointed towards the Ocean. There, a Sea Creature's tail is
wagging left and right continuously, actually, that tail seemed familiar, but where have I've
seen it.. Oh! Isn't that the Octopus that's following the Strawhat Pirates' ship? What was her
nickname again? Taffy? Yeah I think I heard Jiro-ya calls her that. As I was thinking about
this, I heard Strawhat-ya started to sing again.

Strawhat-ya stopped singing and opened one of his eyes, "Ah, Taffy? What are you doing
here?" He asked. Taffy-ya looked at him, "Hi Luffy! I just got here after swimming around
the Island." Strawhat-ya looked visibly confused by Taffy-ya's answer. "Uhm, swimming
around the Island? Why would you do that?" Taffy-ya gave him a 'Are you serious?' Look,
"Isn't it obvious? I don't trust any of the Women here, even if they wouldn't attack me, I'm
still wary of them." So that's her reason. Well to be honest, all of the Women here only nice to
us only because we knew Strawhat-ya. And Boa Hancock-ya is still in denial that Me,
Eustass-ya, and Strawhat-ya are Soulmates. "Well then, shall we continue?" Taffy-ya asked
Strawhat-ya.

"FUH! It's been a while since I've last sang. What do you think 'bout my singing?" Taffy-ya
asked. "It's good, when did you know about this song?" Strawhat-ya asked her. "Oh, Ace told
me about it... Hahaha! He always tells me all kinds of stories about you! I remember that one
time, he told me that you cut a Giant Bear in half, with only three slash of your Sword!" Wait,
he did what?! Also a Giant Bear in the East Blue?! Eustass-ya also thought of the same thing
as me, "How the fuck does a Giant Bear lives in an Island on the East Blue!? It's literally the
most calmest and weakest Blue of all of the other Blues!" "I also wanted to know about that
more, Eustass-ya. Maybe we'll ask him in the morning."
He thought about it for a bit. "Yeah, that's a good idea. Besides, tomorrow's the last day
we'll see him before he goes to training for 2 years on the Island near this one." Oh yeah,
Strawhat-ya did told us before, that he's going to train himself for 2 years before returning
back to the world. We both agreed to just watch Strawhat-ya and Taffy-ya talking about Fire
Fist-ya, we both can ask him about our questions tomorrow. And maybe, have our date
tomorrow.

Chapter 7 : 2 Years Of Disconnection

Sabaody Archipelago, Grove 41

After 2 years of training, all of the Strawhats finally met each other again. Chopper, Usopp,
and Franky are currently in a group hug while bawling their eyes out. Robin and Nami are at
the shopping center to buy things that they needed before they set sail. (Well Robin is the one
who actually bought the supplies, while Nami goes to the Clothing Section and bought a lot
clothes that who knows if she's going wear it or not) Zoro and Sanji are fighting... Again.
While Luffy and Brook are talking about Soulmate's Connections with each other. "So, how
does our communication with our Soulmate works? I know that we communicate via writing
on our wrist, but how and when it's first started?" Luffy asked Brook. "Well that's something
I don't know either Luffy-san. But what I do know, is that we've been communicating with
our Soulmate(s) via writing on our wrists."

Luffy nodded at the information. Ever since the war, Luffy had changed very much. Sure,
the others also improved too, from their appearance, ability, skills, and knowledge, but
Luffy's improvement is more than that. Luffy had become more mature and level headed, if
you compare Luffy with himself from two years ago, you wouldn't believe that's how he used
to act, and he also carries a sword that's tied to his back hip. Everyone questioned Luffy about
it, but he just gave vague answers and never told them the reason he carries a sword. Zoro is
obviously intrigued by this, when he saw Luffy carrying a sword, he immediately asked for a
duel, but Luffy says that 'it's not the right time yet', Zoro wonders what does it mean but he
just shrugged it off and went to sleep, only to be woken up by Sanji and they fought like
usual.

Brook sips his tea and looked at Luffy, "You know Luffy-san, this setting reminds me of a
memory with the Rumbar Pirates and my dearest Hana." Luffy noticed the tone shift in
Brook's voice, so he decided to let Brook to tell him anything, plus he's always interested
with anything his crew told him about their past experiences, bad or good. "Really? Do you
want to tell me more about it?" Luffy asked him, Brook looked surprised at Luffy's request,
but he agreed. "Sure Luffy-san. It was maybe around 55 to 60 years ago, I was currently in
my 20's at the time and we, the Rumbar Pirates had docked to an Island in the South Blue.
PHEW! I remember that place is really hot and we couldn't even stay under the sun for too
long. So we decided to go to the Town nearby the docks." Luffy looked astonished by the fact
that Brook can remember a memory from 60 years ago.

Brook sips his tea and the continues, "We decided to split into teams of two, I got Captain
Yorki as my teammate. We both decided to go to the Market in that Island because.. I forgot
why, my brain has already erased that memory about our Shopping List , not that I had a
brain anymore, Yohohohoho!" Luffy giggled because of Brook's infamous 'Skull Joke'.
"Then, what happened Brook?" "After we left the Market, we arrived at the Town's Plaza.
But Captain Yorki said that he forgot something on the ship, so he went back to the ship to
grab it. I'm bored waiting for him, so I walked around the Plaza while looking up in the sky.
Suddenly, there's someone poking my right arm. I looked down to my arm, and saw a
beautiful Lady poking my arm. I am not going to lie to you Luffy-san, but I swear my cheeks
felt hotter and hotter the more I looked at her."

Luffy chuckled at Brook's confession, but he stayed quiet, intending to listen and imagine
the scenes of the whole story. "The Lady asked me, 'Hello? Do you have any trouble hearing?
'Cause I've been calling you for 3 minutes straight right now.' I immediately apologized to her
and told her that I was admiring the Sky." Now, Brook's appearance has made it difficult for
anyone to know his expression, but Luffy can pick up the sudden shift in the air surrounding
Brook, and it shifted to a sad one. "She then looked up to Sky and said, 'You're
that fascinated with the Sky, that your mind is into the clouds? Hahahaha! You're a funny
guy, I like you. What's your name? Mine's, Ophelia Hana.'"

"I then said, Yohohoho! You're also a Blunt and Energetic Lady! My name is Brook, it's a
pleasure to meet you. Hana then said 'Hehe! It's also a pleasure meeting you Brook! Oh yeah,
why aren't you looking for your Soulmate, Brook? Your Soulmark's been glowing pretty
bright.' Of course, I was taken a back with her statement, and bluntness, then I grabbed my
left palm and placed it between me and Hana. And true to her words, my Soulmark is
glowing a shade of White and Blue. Oh incase you're wondering Luffy-san, my Soulmark is a
lovely Record Player. It might look old at first glance, but to me it was always shining, as if
my Significant Other is brimming with happiness and joy."

Luffy gasped in amazement, "Whoa.. So it's like an old Record Player that is always
polished and taken care of properly." Luffy's words is more like a statement than a question,
but Brook didn't really care, what he cared about is that Luffy is listening intently to his Story
about his First Encounter with his lovely and kind Soulmate, Hana, something that has
nothing to do about becoming the Pirate King. But Brook just continued, "Then I said, oh
you're right, Hana-san. My Soulmark is glowing really bright. Wait... doesn't that mean that
my Soulmate is near me right now?! Hana laughed at my reaction, 'Ahahahahaha!! Why're
you so scared to see your Soulmate? It's not like they're gonna bite your head of or
something.' I gasped at her sheer bluntness, that's a very scary thought Hana-san! I don't want
my Soulmate to bite my head off!"

"Hana then said, 'Then stop being a scaredy cat and write something to them already!' I
nodded at her and wrote something on my wrist.." Brook looked at Luffy, "I'm sorry Luffy-
san, but I'm comfortable yet to tell you what I wrote to her." Luffy noticed that whatever
Brook wrote to his Soulmate is a private matter, I mean, why else he refused to tell him what
he wrote to Hana? "Ah, it's fine Brook. I understand if you are not comfortable yet to tell this
kind of thing to me, to us, but I won't press you with it, so you don't have to worry about
anything." And all of the sudden, in Brook's eyes, the one in front of him is not Luffy, but his
late Captain, the one who had died while they're still trapped in the Florian Triangle, the one
who gave him a chance to explore the Sea, the one let him met his Soulmate, the one who
made him met with Laboon... Captain Yorki.

Luffy noticed that Brook is zoning out, this made Luffy worried about his Crewmate, his
Nakama. "Brook? What's wrong? You've been zoning out for a while now, are you okay?"
That made Brook snap out of his trance. "Ah, yes, I'm fine Luffy-san. I'm just reminiscing my
memories with Hana and the Rumbar Pirates." Luffy nodded at Brook, but he still felt the sad
aura around Brook, then he got an idea. "Hey Brook. If it's not a trouble for you... Can you
sing the song that you always loved to play?" Brook looked confused at Luffy's request, but
he soon understood what Luffy meant by 'The song that he always loved to play'.

Brook smiled happily at Luffy,"Can you please wait for a while Luffy-san? I'm going to
grab my Violin first." Luffy nodded at him, and Brook disappeared from the deck. While
Brook was searching for his prized Violin, Luffy remembered that Kid hasn't replying to any
of his and Law's writing. Sure, he's on training for two years, but even in these two years both
Kid and Law always wrote sweet encouragement, with their own style, to him everyday. But
Kid suddenly stopped writing anything to Luffy after eleven months. So Luffy wrote
something to Law, hoping that he can answer his question.

'Hey Tora-o. Can you reply now? It's something that's been on my mind for a while.' 'What
is it, Strawhat-ya?' 'Well... Do you know why Giza-o hasn't replied to our writings lately?'
Well fuck. Law was expecting this conversation, but he didn't thought that Luffy would reach
out on the day he and his crew goes back to the Sea. Ever since Luffy went no contact for two
years, Rayleigh's request, Kid started to answer Law's writings, 2-3 hours after Law wrote
something, and he also stopped trying to write nor reply anything to Law after he became a
Warlord, which in Law's perspective is a childish and stupid reason, until Kid just stopped
replying. He looked up the Punk Hazard's Snowy Sky before looking down and replied,

'I actually have no idea for Eustass-ya's sudden disconnection.' Luffy deflated at that, 'So
you don't have any clue of what's happening to Giza-o?' 'Well from what I've gathered,
Eustass-ya stopped contacting you after Eleven Months of your training, correct?' That
question made Luffy quite sad. 'Yeah.. At first I thought that he's having a lot of fun from his
adventures, but after that he stopped writing anything to me.' Then Law wrote something
shocking. 'I also thought the same, but then five months later, I came across an Article from
the Newspaper... It says that Eustass-ya had reached New World and challenged an Emperor
of the Sea, 'Red-Haired' Shanks.'

Luffy froze at that, 'Giza-o challenged Shanks? He immediately went for an Emperor? The
'me' from two years ago doesn't have the right to say this Giza-o, you're an idiot.' Luffy said
in his mind. 'I know that this is a big shock for you Strawhat-ya. But that's what the News
said, and it has already happened, so there's nothing that we can do.' Law wrote. 'Hmm.. Do
you have anything more Tora-o?' It took a few minutes, but Law answered. '..Oh yeah. Even
after he stopped contacting you, he still kept in touch with me... for three months. In those
three months, he started to reply very late and he barely wrote anything to me. Until
eventually, he did what I did 13 years ago.'

Luffy stared in shock at the writings. If that's the case then.. He's been going no contact, no
writing, no replying, and erased any attempts to contact him. He didn't want to believe it, but
there's too many evidence leading to that conclusion. Just this morning, Luffy wrote
something to both Law and Kid. Law answered a couple of minutes after the message, but the
writings that he wrote to Kid.. It was erased completely. As if there was nothing to begin
with, this definitely broke Luffy's heart, but he knows that there must be a reason for this. He
have to keep smiling and happy. @fT3r alL... 1t's h15 j0b t0 m@k3 3very1 h@ppy aNd bE
the 0ne 0ff3R1ng @ 5H0uLd3r to h0lD 0ntO, 15n't It?

Before Luffy can thought about it even longer, Law wrote something. 'Strawhat-ya? Are you
okay? You didn't respond for quite a while now.' Oh, he almost forgot about Law. 'Sorry
about that Tora-o. I'm just thinking about what you had just said.' Obviously, Law was taken
a back by Luffy's reply. I mean who wouldn't? Luffy and thinking? No, that's just something
from a different universe... right? Yeah, no shit. He has to face reality, that one day Luffy
will actually think before doing anything. 'Is it really that surprising for me to think about
something?'... Well damn, looks like Law had made Luffy offended by his sudden pause. 'No,
it's not really surprising. I know that you will start to think first before doing anything. I'm
just not used to you thinking about something but Food.' Luffy scoffed at Law's writing, but
he knows that Law is half joking with it.

Just then, Brook emerges from the Kitchen. He looks at Luffy, who is still writing
something to Law, and smiles. 'It's the first time I've seen Luffy-san smile brightly after two
years of separation' Brook thought. Luffy felt someone staring at him, he looked to the right
and saw Brook walking towards him while holding his precious Violin. "Hey Brook! I'm just
talking with Tora-o for a bit. Do you mind?" Brook shook his head and said, "No I don't mind
Luffy-san. You can finish your talk with Tora-o-san." Luffy mouthed a 'Thanks' to Brook and
wrote something to end the conversation with Law. After that, Luffy turned his body to face
Brook. "Now then.. Let's start, shall we." Luffy grinned.

"Yohohohoho!! That was the most lovely voice I've ever heard Luffy-san! When did you
learn how to sing?" Brook asked, he was surprised by Luffy voice, to him, it sounded like a
tune from another world. "I don't think my voice is that good though, and my mother is the
one taught me how to sing." Brook was surprised with Luffy's answer, he never told anyone,
even his Soulmates, anything about his Parents or anything related to his childhood. "Your
mother, Luffy-san? Forgive me if I sound rude but, why do you never tell us anything about
your childhood?" Brook immediately regrets asking that question, because as soon as he
asked that, Luffy's expression turned grim. "I'd rather stay on the Present Time rather dwell
on the Past. And it's also not the best one I've had." Brook just nodded at him and Luffy
excused himself to walk around the Archipelago, before they went to Fishman Island.

"..Don't you think Luffy's choice of wording is weird?" Brook jumped out of fear and turned
around to saw Robin standing near the Main Mast. "Oh, Robin-san! You almost gave me a
heart attack, although I no longer have any heart, Yohohohoho!!" Brook then stopped
laughing when Robin asked the question once again. "Wait, what do you mean by that Robin-
san?" Robin frowned a little and said, "Luffy said, 'It's not the best one I've had' Don't you
think it's weird? Luffy could've said 'My past is not really that great' But instead, he used
these words. It's as if he's implying that he had more than one childhood experience."

Now Brook is contemplating this too, but he brushed it off and said, "I think that you're
overthinking this, Robin-san. Maybe he has lived with his family first and then he started to
live with someone else?" His last sentence sounded like a question instead of a statement.
Robin thought about it for a while, "That is a possibility. I'm sorry Brook, I guess that I really
am just overthinking this." Brook laughed softly, "Yohoho, it's fine Robin-san. I think you're
worried about Luffy-san's condition. I, too, also worried for his condition both physically and
mentally. But we all knew that Luffy-san can overcome anything. Plus, his luck is really out
of the ordinary!" Robin chuckled at that and they decided to have a conversation about the
history, mostly Robin asking Brook, until Nami came and told them that it was time to leave,
and asked Sanji to look for Luffy.

Marine HQ, Grand Line

*Knock**Knock* A Marine soldier is currently knocking on a pristine white door that has
golden door handle and some gold colored swirly design on the each corner of the door.
"Uhm, *Knock* Admiral Ryosaku. Are you in there?" After the soldier asked that, there are
some grunting noises coming from the other side of the door. After a couple of minutes, a
young woman's voice can be heard from the other side. "Come in.. And hurry up with what
ever you're trying to report to me." The soldier gulped and slowly pushed the door. When he
got in, he was presented with a calming aura radiating from the room. There are two scented
candle that smelled like Jasmine and Saffron. "So? What is it?" The voice asked him again.
The soldier stiffed his position and looked towards the young woman, though he didn't dare
to look directly to her eyes.
Art By : Me ( Miko_Akane )

When the soldier didn't say anything for a minute, the young woman got restless. "Dude,
just say what you're asked to tell me. I want to sleep more~" The soldier sweatdropped at her,
but he didn't want to get into trouble. "A-ah yes. Fleet Admiral Akainu told me, that you will
be sent to Dressrosa with Admiral Fujitora to have a conversation with one of the Warlord of
the Sea, 'Heavenly Demon' Donquixote Doflamingo." The young woman, Ryosaku D. Jiro,
groaned at what the soldier told her. "God damn, that asshole doesn't know the word 'Fuck
off' Also, why did he asked me to go with Issho-san? Can't he just ask Borsalino-san or that
other Admiral to go with him...." Jiro slumped down to her desk, clearly still sleepy. "Fine,
whatever. Tell that Government Dog that I'll go, not like Weed Guy wanted to help Issho-san
in this kind of mission."

The soldier nodded and excuses himself and, practically, ran towards the door and closes it.
Jiro just sighed at the soldier's behavior, well she understood why he acted like that. Two
years ago, she was a cheerful, enthusiastic, and energetic girl. But after the Paramount War,
she changed drastically. She started to go where his Grandfather's personal training grounds
in hopes to be stronger by hitting the unused/wrecked Marine Battleships. For example,
yesterday she went to the 'training grounds' and started punching the Battleships with a fist
covered in Armament Haki. She always remembered what her Grandfather said to her
whenever she trained 'Become stronger Jiro. And prove that you can make larger Battleship
Bags than me!!'

Right now, she just wanted to sleep and train in a couple of hours, but she couldn't get rid of
Akainu's order to her. "That damn Government Dog. Just why did he ordered me to go??!
Well, at least I'm going there with Uncle Issho and not Kizaru or that new guy who has a
Wind like Devil Fruit. *Slurps coffee* Ah.. Nothing beats a Cappuccino in the morning."
She turned her head to the right to look at the tall stack of paperwork. "...Until it is ruined by
some fucking paperworks. And most of it doesn't have anything to do with me. Like
yesterday, I got a paperwork about the Heavenly Tribute and a request to join the Reverie.
Uhm, HELLO!? Isn't that the Fleet Admiral's job?!! Why am I the one doing it!!.. I really
need to stop talking to myself." And with that, she groaned once again before taking a paper
and pen... Is what she supposed to do. But instead she took out an old Wanted Poster of Sanji
and started to fawn and simp over the poster. (Even though Sanji is her Soulmate)

Punk Hazard, New World

A man that has a gas like appearance came into the room holding a piece of paper that has
some information about an experiment. "Oh, Monet~~ I need your help with this document."
Monet turned around. "Is it about the subjects' statistics?" She is wearing a bright green tank
top that has the word 'Happy' on the piece of clothing. She is also wearing a black underwear
with a orange striped leggings under it. She has wings instead of hands and bird legs instead
of normal human legs, the avian features is probably from her Devil Fruit. "Slororororo!
You're right, Monet! I have some experiments to do, so can you please do it?" Monet
chuckled softly, "Fufufu. Isn't dealing with the paperwork my job? I'll do it after I've finished
reading today's newspaper, Caesar-san." The man, Caesar Clown, is curious with the
newspaper Monet is currently reading.

"Is today's newspaper that interesting?" Caesar asked her. Monet nodded and replied,
"Indeed it is quite interesting. Here, take a look Caesar-san." Monet gave Caesar the
newspaper and he started to read the Headline.

STRAWHAT PIRATES RETURNS!

The Strawhat Pirates is back! They have been inactive for the last two years after their
captain, 'Straw Hat' Luffy, fought in the Paramount War.

Where could they be hiding this entire time?! What are they waiting for to wait for two
whole years before returning to the Sea and set sail again?!

Caesar is shocked by the Head line of the newspaper. Who wouldn't? Luffy came barging in
the war by falling from the sky, made a temporary Alliance with the Whitebeard Pirates, and
can speak to Whitebeard on equal grounds. "So that crazy Rookie and his crew is back?
That's interesting, but it doesn't concern me.. I mean they don't have any business with, so
their comeback is irrelevant for us." Monet nodded, agreeing with what Caesar said. Then she
looked around the room, "Caesar-san. Where's Law? I haven't seen him since I woke up."
Caesar thought about for a moment. "OH! I remember seeing him near one of the destroyed
Lab. Honestly, I don't really care what's he doing there, as long as he didn't try to do anything
funny."

Law's PoV

I'm currently in one of the parts of the destroyed Lab, trying to contact Eustass-ya. After the
conversation with Strawhat-ya, I became even more worried for Eustass-ya's wellbeing. "Oh
for fucks sake. Reply instead of erasing my writings, Eustass-ya!!" I angrily shouted at my
left wrist... Not that it'll do anything, but it lets a bit of my frustration out. I sighed and leaned
to the wall there. I was intending to end the production of SAD by confronting Caesar Clown
myself. But I guess it's much more harder than I thought. I didn't even realize that tears is
flowing from my eyes, until some tears dropped on my palm. I tried to wipe the tears, but it
just kept flowing... But why?

Why am I reminded of him? Why now? Why- I could feel my legs shaking and I fell to the
ground. My breath fastened, and my body automatically moved into a fetal position. My sight
is fuzzy, my head is spinning really hard... Everything.. Hurts. I couldn't do anything but
hugged myself while still gasping for air. No, I can't pass out now. I have to dig more
information from Caesar.. I.. Have.... To fulfil.. his last wish.. I felt someone hugging me.
Who are they..? I tried to look up, but my spinning head and fuzzy sight wouldn't let me. The
person hugging me suddenly said. "You can rest for a couple of hours Law. I'll stay here with
you." That voice sounded.. Familiar, a woman's voice. I don't know what came over me, but
my body and mind obeyed to the woman's words. It felt warm and safe.

Art By : Me ( Miko_Akane )
"You're always so restless Law. Your crew is always worried for your wellbeing." The
woman said, her voice is quite distorted.. Is it because I'm sleepy? "Doflamingo is going
down, he's going to be defeated. I'm sure of it, Law. Rosinante will not be happy with your
decision, but I felt that you're going to survive and live happily." W-what? I opened my eyes.
How can this woman.. Who is she? I forced my head to look at her, but sight is still foggy. I
can't clearly see her, but she has black hair and a Diamond Hairpin... Wait, that hairpin.. "I
told you to sleep, didn't I? Now your head is feeling dizzy, right?" She stroked my hair.. How
did she came to this Island? Whatever, I'll think about it later, now I just wanted to feel her
warm hug.

??? PoV

Finally, he fell asleep. Seriously, I always told him to call me if he needed help. Well, I
guess it's just Law's personality, always refusing to ask for help and denies that he needed
one. Is his body still shaking? I pressed my hand on his shoulder, he jumped a little at the
contact. Is he still wary of my presence? I peered over to look at Law's face, his face is quite
red and he's still breathing heavily. But why?... Oh yeah, He has low Cold Resistance, but he
was born in the North Blue... That doesn't make any damn sense?! Suddenly, I heard some
incoherent whispering. "Don't...Leave me.. I'm sorry.." Shit, his nightmare is back. I rocked
my body back and forth, in hopes that it'll calm him down a little. "*Sigh* You idiot little
brother. The next time I see you, I swear I'm going to fucking interrogate you and check
your wellbeing. But for now, I'll just let him deal with the relationship problem he has with
his Soulmates. Speaking of Soulmate, I'm going ask mine about our next date.

Chapter 8 : Destination, Punk Hazard

Punk Hazard, New World


"EVERYONE, WE'VE ARRIVED!!" Nami shouted at her crewmates and captain. "Ah,
have we?" Luffy said while walking towards Nami. She turned around and frowned a bit,
"You better have a good reason to go here. Look! The Log Pose needle pointing towards this
Island is shaking and spinning all the time!! What if we got captured or die in this Island?!!"
Luffy smiled at her. "Well, I know that this freaks you out. But my survival instinct told me
that we'd have a higher chance of survival rather going to the other two Islands the other
needles gave us. Besides, didn't we got an S.O.S asking for help? I can't let them die a
gruesome death by frostbites." Nami cringed at the way the signal sender would die. "But
still. It's not our job. Why should we care about some stranger?" Nami swore she saw Luffy's
eyes turned hollow for a split second before turning back to normal.

"I see... Then how about this? I'll go there alone, while you guys go somewhere that you'll
think is going to be safe." Nami froze at Luffy's suggestion. "No way! Are you saying that we
should leave you behind?!" "What, no! You said that you're afraid of anything bad happens to
you and the others. That's why I suggested that you go to a different Island with the others,
while I find the person sending the S.O.S signal." Nami didn't know whether to call her
captain too kind or too stubborn. Sure, she also wanted to help the stranger, but doesn't their
safety comes first before a stranger's? Also, why does Luffy think that they're going to left
him alone on an, supposedly, dangerous Island? There's no way that they're going to abandon
him, especially after the Paramount War ended, they all swore to protect him in their own
ways.

Looks like Nami's long silence made Luffy worried that he had said something wrong.
"Nami? Did I say something wrong? I'm sorry if I said something that hurts you." Nami
blinked for a few seconds, "W-what? No, you didn't do anything wrong Luffy. It's just... You
know what, forget it. Oh yeah, does Punk Hazard has any treasure?" Her eyes turned into
Berry Currency. Truth to be told, she guessed that there won't be anything valuable in the
Island. But she decided to ask anyway, so that the topic will change and she wouldn't have to
face Luffy and his tendency to blame himself. And her plan worked, because Luffy answered
her question, "Huh? Uhm... Maybe. I don't really have a good eye for anything valuable. I
think there should be a couple of golds in one of the Labs there.

Luffy's answer confused and excites Nami. On one hand, she's excited because of the
mention of golds. But on the other hand, she wonders how Luffy knew about there would be
golds and that Punk Hazard has Laboratories on the Island... Wait a minute, Laboratories?!
This information made Nami shudder. "How did you know that there are Labs on the Island?"
Luffy grinned at her and said, "I read some newspapers from a few years ago!" The entire
crew slowly turned their heads to Luffy. There was a brief moment of silence before Nami,
Usopp, Chopper, and Sanji, screamed at the same time. "YOU CAN READ??!!!" Luffy
looked offended by their scream, "Listen. I may be an idiot, but I'm not a fool. I understand
and knew how to do basic things."

After he said that, Luffy disappeared into the Kitchen. When he walked past his crew, they
saw his grim and disappointed expression. Now the ones that screamed, immediately felt
guilty for saying that. "I believe that you guys owe Luffy an apology." Robin said, looking a
bit angry. "What you guys just said hurt Luffy-san's feelings. I know that you guys are
surprised by this revelation, I'm also shocked by this. But that's still not a good reason to just
say things like that." Brook scolded them. "You guys are SUPERRRRR NOT COOL, for
saying that." Franky said. Sanji, Nami, Usopp, and Chopper all lowered their heads and they
immediately searched for Luffy.

While looking for Luffy, Usopp found Zoro sitting on the back deck. ( Zoro walked away
when Luffy is out of sight ) "Oh, hey Zoro. Have you seen Luffy?" Usopp asked, he's a bit
nervous when he's near Zoro (It's probably because he's scary, Usopp's opinion.) Zoro side
glared at Usopp, but he answered. "He went to the Captain's Quarters. Tell the others too."
Usopp just nodded before he ran away to not feel Zoro's leaking anger any longer. Usopp
then told Sanji, Nami, and Chopper about it and the four of them went to the Captain's
Quarter. Once they reached the door, Sanji knocked on the door. "Luffy? Are you in there? I..
No, we wanted to apologize for what we had just said." There is a uncomfortable silence for a
while, before Luffy responded. "...Come in." The four of them felt relief washed up on them.
Sanji hesitated for a moment, but he slowly opened the door to the Captain's Quarter. They
walked inside the room to see Luffy is writing something. When Nami asked what he was
doing, Luffy showed her a drawing.

Art By : Me ( Miko_Akane )

They all were amazed by Luffy's drawing. "Amazing... When did you learn to draw this
amazing Luffy?" Chopper asked. Luffy looked at them with with a smile. "My sister taught
me!" The four of them nodded, while Sanji is blushing a bit by Luffy's words, he thought that
Jiro is the one teaching Luffy how to draw. They looked at each other and nodded at the same
time, which made Luffy confused, and turned back to Luffy. "Luffy. We're sorry for what we
had said before." The four of them apologized at the same time. Luffy stayed quiet before
smiled at them, "It's fine. I understand that it's a shock for you guys." The four sighed and
kept apologizing while asking Luffy some questions about his sister, mostly Sanji, and Luffy
answered happily. Then, Usopp asked, "Hey, uhm... Luffy. How come that you're not angry at
us for what we had to you at the deck?"

Luffy looked quite confused at Usopp's question. "Well. It's not like you guys did it on
purpose. You guys are just shocked, so why should I be sulking at something you guys did on
an impulse?" He smiled brightly at them. The four of them felt something shot their hearts
'Luffy is too kind.' They all thought at the same time. They all decided that it's been a long
time since they're in this room, so they went out to the deck to meet the others. Brook,
Franky, Robin, and Zoro, looked happy at their interaction with Luffy. Zoro then asked, "So,
who's going with Luffy to that Island?" He pointed to the Island. On their perspective, the
Island is burning and they can feel the heat even with the Thousand Sunny's distance.

But this just made all of them even more confused. The person asking their help said that
the Island name is Punk Hazard, and that the Island is really cold with a snowstorm
happening. But they all only saw an Island that feels like hell, even though they haven't got
too close, well they're only a couple of miles away from the Island. "HIIIII!!! THERE'S NO
WAY I'M GOING NEAR THAT ISLAND!! NO WAY NO WAY NO WAY NO WAY!!!!"
Usopp screamed. He was already against the idea of coming here from the start, but he just
had to get a kindhearted person as his captain. (Not like he's complaining about it) Since they
can't choose, it was decided that they should pick the ones coming with Luffy by getting the
Red Marked Straw.

In the end, the ones that are coming with Luffy are Robin, Zoro, and Usopp. Robin and Zoro
seemed delighted by this, Robin because she could get some information about this Island,
while Zoro just wanted to see if there are enemies he can took his boredom off, but Usopp is
screaming while sobbing profusely. "NOOOOOO!!!!!! WHY DID I GOT LUCKY AT A
TIME LIKE THIS!! SOMEONE SWITCH WITH MEEE!!!" Usopp screamed. Franky and
Sanji wanted to go with Luffy, but they knew that it'll be too dangerous for them to go, since
they're the combatants. Sure, Brook, Nami, and Chopper can defend themselves, but they're
easily scared even by the littlest shadow moving on the ship. Plus, it'll be a good adventure to
cure Usopp's 'Can't go to a scary Island' disease.

Luffy, Robin, Zoro, and Usopp used the Mini Merry to go to the Island, but Nami said that
the water around the Island is boiling hot and it will melt the Mini Merry. So she made a
Cloud Bridge from the Thousand Sunny to the Island. Luffy stared in awe at the Cloud
Bridge. "Whoa.. Nami, did you use your knowledge about the Cloud Sea from Skypiea?" He
asked her. Nami nodded and she looked very happy. "That's right! Now hurry before the
bridge disappears!" Luffy thanked her once again and the Mini Merry started to move using
the bridge. "Uhhh... Guys, I think I have the 'Can't go to scary Island' disease" Usopp said,
looking at the Island, scared by whatever is on that Island. "We know." Luffy, Zoro, and
Robin said, already used to this.

Halfway through the bridge, Luffy, Robin, and Zoro ate the lunch that was prepared by
Sanji for them. "How the hell are you guys eating at a time like this?!!" Usopp shouted at the
three. "Aren't you going to eat yours?" Zoro asked Usopp. "How am I supposed to eat
peacefully, if I'm going to a weird and dangerous looking Island?!!" Usopp angrily screamed
at Zoro. When Zoro and Usopp are still bickering with each other, Robin pointed her
chopsticks that has a piece of chicken between it, at Luffy. "Do you want this Luffy?" She
asked him. Luffy brightens at Robin's question. "Sure! Thanks Robin!" Robin then asked
Luffy to open his mouth, he did as she said and she feeds Luffy the piece of chicken. Luffy
thanked her once again and looked back to the front.

Back at the Thousand Sunny

Brook, Franky, Sanji, Nami, and Chopper are left doing their own devices. Sanji is making
drinks for the others, Nami is checking the Log Poses, Brook is sitting down while looking at
the sky, Franky is near the Steer trying to find if there's anything that he needed to fix, while
Chopper is playing on the swing. After a while, Sanji came back with a tray filled with five
drinks. "EVERYONE! I MADE DRINKS!!" Sanji shouted to gain their attentions. Sanji
started giving the drinks, he gave the 'Super-Special-Blue-Tropical-Drink-for-Nami-
Swwaaan~~~' to Nami, then he gave the rest a glass filled with Yellow colored Tropical
Drinks each. As they're drinking, Chopper suddenly asks. "Hey guys.. Is it just me, or is
Luffy more... Distanced with all of us?" The others stayed quiet and thought about Chopper's
question.

Then Nami said, "Now that you mentioned it.. He is. Last night I saw him leaning on the
railings. I asked him what was he doing there when it's not his turn to keep an eye for the
night. He then said that he's just admiring the rare peaceful night, which is definitely weird. I
asked what does he meant by that. Luffy turned around and I swear, that I saw his eyes
looked hollow and felt empty. But it disappeared in an instant, and he answered, 'I'm sorry.
But I'd like to keep that to myself, Nami.' "

The others are shocked by what Nami had just said. "You.. You sure that's Luffy? Don't get
me wrong, but that's just... Something I would never expect from someone as cheerful and
energetic as Luffy." Franky said in disbelief. They continued to talk about the things they
found about Luffy, but in the end they couldn't think of anything that can change Luffy
drastically, so they concluded that his change is because of the Paramount War. When all of
their glasses are now empty, Sanji goes back to the Kitchen to wash the dirty glasses.
Suddenly, there's a purple gas flowing on the ship. At first they're panicking, but the ones on
the deck (Franky, Nami, Brook, Chopper) passed out from the strange purple gas. Sanji came
to the deck, someone is covering his mouth with a cloth. Then, he too, passed out from the
gas.

Some people wearing yellow hazmat suits came onto the Thousand Sunny and started tying
the crew together, except Brook since they thought that he's just a random body that the
Strawhats forgot to dispose. One of them is using a Den Den Mushi to call someone, while
two of the hazmat suit people are lifting the anchor so they can move the ship to their place.
After the anchor have been lifted, one of them went to the steer and started moving the ship.
"Master will be so happy when he saw these new subjects!!" One of the hazmat suits person
said. "That's true. It's been a while since we got new subjects, most of them usually died a
few meters away from Punk Hazard. I'm surprised these Pirates got this close." Another one
said. What these people didn't know, the Thousand Sunny has 2-5 trackers on it. Making their
destination seen by the locator.

Punk Hazard, New World

Back to Luffy, Robin, Zoro, and Usopp. Half an hour ago, the four of them had reached
Punk Hazard.. And had experienced some eventful things. When they first stepped foot into
the Island, they immediately felt like they're slowly melting. It's even worse for Luffy, since
he's a rubber person and rubber did not go well with heat. Then, when they explored the
hellish Island a bit further, they encountered a Dragon. Usopp almost fainted from the sight,
while Luffy and Zoro are planning to kill it for it's meat, Robin just watched from the
sidelines while pitying Usopp. When Luffy got on the dragon's back, via Usopp's special
jumping plant, he saw something moving near the dragon's neck. Luffy got closer, and he
found half of a body.

But the strangest thing is not because there's half of someone's body up here, it's the fact that
the, half, body talking. 'I can kind of understand that the legs are moving, since it's the lower
part of a human body. But how can it talk?' Luffy thought, still confused and a bit surprised
by his discovery. Suddenly, the body said, "Boo! Who's there? Boo!" Luffy felt something
familiar from the body's clothing, but he didn't say anything. Instead, he walked closer and
poked the right leg of the body. "BOO! WHO ARE YOU, BOO! I WILL NOT HESITATE
TO ATTACK YOU, BOO!" But the body's threat didn't even made Luffy flinch. "How come
you're still alive and talking?" Luffy asked to the point. But his question went to deaf ears,
because the body didn't answer him, instead it continues to scream at Luffy. This annoys
Luffy, so he stands right beside the body and wrote 'Hey, I'm not an enemy' using his finger
on the body's hips.

The body froze, before shouting, "HOW CAN YOU PROVE THAT, BOO!" Well damn,
this'll be harder than Luffy initially thought. He wanted to write more, but the body's legs are
kicking the air really hard, trying to kick Luffy. So his only choice is... Pull the body apart
from the dragon and bring it back down. As he's pulling, the body shouted, "BOO! WHAT
ARE YOU DOING TO ME, BOO!" But at this point, Luffy didn't even bother to listen to its
shout and continues to pull the body until he fell from the dragon, with the body, and started
falling down. But before Luffy, and the body, touched the ground, Robin calmly crossed her
both of her arms in front of her chest and said, "Cien Fleur, Chrysanthemum!" Suddenly, a lot
of hands started appearing from the ground opening their palms to catch Luffy.

Luffy fell on some of the hands and the hands gently spun Luffy and the body towards
Robin. When the hands dropped Luffy beside Robin, he turned his head to look at her and
smiled. "That was close, thanks Robin!" Robin felt like she had just seen the Sun itself, she is
currently dying from cuteness internally, but she held herself from pinching that adorable
baby cheeks. "Fufu, no problem Luffy. But I think that we should call Usopp and Zoro here
and discuss about your discovery, and Zoro probably has killed the dragon." "Sweet! I've
never tried dragon meat before, I hope that it's not poisonous or anything." Luffy said,
thinking about how the dragon meat's texture and taste will be, Robin chuckled at Luffy's
train of thought.

As if on cue, Zoro came with Usopp and the dragon from before, Zoro killed it, and the four
of them started skinning the dragon and roast it on one of the large fire, while discussing
about the body that Luffy pulled from the dragon. "Sooo... What are we going to do
about.. that?" Usopp, trembling, points at the half body. As the four of talked about it more,
they decided to bring the body with them, incase that it'll help them along the way. Luffy told
them to stay there while he carries the body, the three nodded and told him to be careful. As
Luffy is approaching the body, he looked at his left arm and smiled, the Golden Coin is
glowing. The glow is still faint, but it's visible if one looked at it closely. Luffy hoped that he
will meet Law as soon as possible.

Chapter 9 : Two Sides of Perspective

Burning Side, Punk Hazard


Luffy, Robin, Usopp, and Zoro, and the half body that Luffy carried, went further into the
Island. On their way, the group stumbled with a Centaur who claims to be the leader of the
Centaur Patrol Unit. But none of them really cared about that, instead Luffy is more
interested with getting on the Centaur. When Luffy jumped on the Centaur's tail, the Centaur
froze before screaming angrily at Luffy telling him to get off from his precious tail, but it
ended up to be in vain, as Luffy made his arms longer and cling on the Centaur's tail tightly.
In the end, the Centaur gave up and just let Luffy cling on his tail. But before he gave up, the
Centaur spun himself around in hopes that Luffy's grip on his tail would let go which, again,
ended up in vain. Zoro, who is carrying the body right now, Robin, and Usopp, goes to sit on
the Centaur's tail.

The Centaur noticed them getting closer and spun his spiked bat around to attack them, but
it was stopped by Zoro using Kitetsu the Third/SanDai Kitetsu. Noticing that the strangers
near him are not going to get away from him, he just let them ride on his tail while having a
sinister idea on what to do with the group. Without the group noticing the Centaur gave a
signal to a Satyr hiding behind a crumbling wall, the Satyr gave the Centaur a thumbs up
before disappearing into the burning hell of, half, an Island. The Centaur walks to the East,
which confuses the group. I mean, why would the Centaur walk towards the Sea? And it's not
like the Centaur himself can swim, so if he goes to the Sea it'll be suicide.

Luffy asked "Hey Old Man. Where are you taking us?" The Centaur looked annoyed by the
nickname Luffy gave him, "HEY! I'm still in my 40's you insolent brat! And my name is
Chadros Higelyges or the ex captain of the Brownbeard Pirates, Brownbeard!" (The group
just looked at him confused, since they've never heard of that Pirate crew) And continued to
walk. But since Brownbeard haven't answered Luffy's question, he persistently asks
Brownbeard about their destination. At first Brownbeard stayed quiet, but then Luffy resorted
to tickling him which made Brownbeard laugh uncontrollably. "HAHA! HAHAHA!! OKAY,
OKAY, STOP! WE'RE GOING TO MY MASTER'S LAB. STOP, HAHAHA, TICKLING
ME!!" When Luffy got his answer he stopped tickling him, and Brownbeard made a mental
note to himself to not annoy this Straw hatred kid until he managed to run away from the
group.

"We've arrived." In front of them is a river and a very snowy Island. Luffy and Robin looked
amazed at the scenery in front of them, Zoro just wanted to sleep, while Usopp is screaming
while trembling in fear, he's also hiding behind Luffy. "Luffyyyy... C'mon, let's go back to
Sunny. I don't want to be here anymore, it's scary!!" Luffy just shook his head and patted
Usopp's shoulder in a attempt to calm him down. Still, the group is confused by what
Brownbeard had said, he said that this is their destination. So Luffy asked, "So, Mr.
Brownbeard" He tilted his head to left a little and he closes his eyes while smiling, creepily,
at Brownbeard. "Why, exactly, is this our destination? Also, don't try to lie to me, I will know
if you lie." Luffy's tone shifted into a very unsettling tone, which sounded scary and
intimidating.

This sudden shift in Luffy made all of them surprised, and scared. "Ye-yeah, I won't. T-this
is the other half of Punk Hazard. The one we're currently at is the Burning Side of the Island,
but one in front of us is the Ice Side of the Island. Usopp remembered something, " Ah, now I
remembered! Isn't Punk Hazard the place where Fleet Admiral Akainu and ex-Admiral
Aokiji fought each other?" Brownbeard nodded at Robin's question. "Indeed. Punk Hazard
used to be an Island filled with Nature, but when an incident happened years ago, everything
in this Island dies. Plants, animals, humans, you name it. But then, Master came. He made
this Island alive again, and he even made us balloon contraptions to help us to move
normally! But then... Those two came and fought each other here for 10 days straight, then
the Island has became... Just like what you all had seen."

"You're right! I remember King Jamon-Jamon said this too!" Luffy exclaimed happily. "Oh
yeah, he did say that. Also his name is King Neptune, Luffy." Usopp corrected Luffy's
naming mistake. "Wait, you said that this Master of yours made contraptions to allow you,
and the others, to move normally again, but you have Crocodile legs and tail." Robin asked,
she's confused and curious by what Brownbeard had told them. "Ah, this. I used to have
normal human legs, but I lost to Basil Hawkins in Foodvalten. I escaped to Punk Hazard, but
the lower part of my body is seriously injured to the point where I couldn't walk anymore.
Master saw me dying in the snow and took me in, he then treated my injuries and let me use
one of the balloon contraptions to help me move around. Then one day, someone came to this
Island and changed our paralyzed legs with animal legs."

This perked up Luffy's attention, " Changed your legs with animal legs? How can someone
do that without stitching it? I don't see any stitches on your body." Brownbeard answered,
"Well, he used his devil fruit power to summon a thin layer of a blue dome and cut off my
legs with ease. It doesn't even hurt at all!" Now all four of them, except the half body of
course, froze at that. What Brownbeard had said sounds very familiar. Luffy looked at his left
arm again, the Golden Coin is glowing even brighter. He smiled at that, looks like his prayers
were answered.

? ? ? , Punk Hazard

Nami's PoV

"Ugh, my head hurts." What..? Where am I? Where are the others?! I looked around, Sanji,
Franky, and Chopper are with me.. But where's Brook!? More importantly, why are we
locked in a room?! "Hey, Sanji-kun. Wake up! Chopper! Franky!" Good grief, why won't
anyone wake up?!! "Hey, young lady! Look over here!" I turned around to see.. A severed
head. "AAAAHHHH!! A TALKING SEVERED HEAD IS IN THIS ROOM!!!” I screamed,
I guess it kind of helped, because Sanji, Chopper, and Franky immediately woke up. "A
talking severed head!?? Where, how is that possible?!” Chopper asked, panicking. I pointed
towards the head. The three of them looked at the direction, and froze... Before screaming.
"Hey, I'm not trying to hurt you all! I just wanted to return to my body!" The head said. ... "IT
CAN TALK?!!" They, except Nami and the head, screamed.

"Okay, let's calm down and let uh... Him talk." Franky said while pointing at the head.
"Thank you kind sir. Greetings, my name is Kin'emon. I'm a samurai. I'm here because my
son had been kidnapped by some strangers to this Island." The head, Kin'emon, said. "A
samurai?!!" Chopper, Franky, and Sanji said while their eyes are sparkling brightly. "Wait. If
you're a samurai, then how come you can get cut like... This?" Nami asked. "Oh, this. When I
was wandering around this Island, a man wearing a long black coat came and sliced me into
three pieces, my head, my torso, and my legs." Kin'emon explained. "Wha- Hold on. How
can someone slice you up and you're still alive?" Now it's Chopper who asked. "Oh, I think
that man used his devil fruit power to cut me. I think his name is-" Before Kin'emon can
finish his sentence, someone opened the locked door.

"Yo, Strawhat-ya's crew. Need some help to escape?" The person said while leaning on the
door. "THAT'S HIM! HE'S THE ONE WHO CUT ME!!" Kin'emon shouted. "... TORA-
O?!!" Nami, Sanji, Franky, and Chopper screamed, Law just smirked at the five.

Maybe around 25 or more. I actually had made a mapped structure/ main points about
each chapters. But I don't know, maybe some chapters might have less words than
expected and, maybe, I would probably add fillers/extra chapters to buy sometime for
the main chapters.
- Will you have breaks?
Yes, but I will inform you guys in a separate book... Wait, that's actually a good idea,
since some people didn't even bother to check the entirety of end notes if they deem it as
'too long'. (But maybe it's just me overreacting, so I apologize if this offended you guys)
- Why do you put art/illustration in your fanfic?
Simple, it's fun. No seriously. For me, and maybe others, putting an illustration inside of
a story felt like a way of letting the readers know the exact situation in the story more
clear. (Once again, I apologize if this offended you guys, especially fellow writers)
- Do you plan to make a side story/one shot of this fanfiction of yours?
Maybe... I don't know, but when I have time I will try to make one.

- Do you own all of the OCs in your fanfic?


No, I only own Kazenayagi D. Reimu. As for Ryosuke D. Jiro and Muddy Tail /
Umiyake Tafurashimi, both of them are my friends' One Piece OCs. Jiro is owned by
TheDumbestPerson. While MT (Muddy Tail) is owned by dehydratedplants. ( Oh yeah,
while I'm at it. Here is a website to help you how to put a link on notes, just click here )

And... That's all, I think :], but if there's anything you guys wanted to ask me, feel free to
ask me on the comment section. I'm always online on Ao3... After I came back from

💜
school obviously. Okay, thank you for those who had read this whole note, and I wish
you guys a good day/afternoon/night. Bye

Chapter 10 : Soulmate and A Sister

"AAAHHHHH!!!! Start running and hurry! The gas is coming!!!" Usopp screamed.
Everyone ran towards the door connecting to the other side of the Lab. There are some of the
Lab workers trying to hold them back in Section A, but the combatants managed to defeat
them with ease, while the others ran for their lives. "Alright, listen up you two." Someone
said to the other two. "I'm going this way. You two can do what ever you wanted, just don't
follow me." One just stared at him while the other snorted. "Who knows? We might cross
path again." With that, the three of them go to a different direction from the others.... Now,
how did this happen? Well, we would have to go back a few hours ago.

A Few Hours Ago

Luffy's PoV

I'm so excited!! Tora-o's on this Island, and he's on the Ice Side, that's perfect! Since me,
Zoro, Usopp, Robin, and the legs, are going to... Those buildings made out of iron. Oh yeah,
the Alligator old man is not with us anymore since he turned his back to us and attacked us
with his fellow Centaur friends. (But I'm not sure if the Spider one is a Centaur). Luckily we
defeated all of them and even got their warm and fluffy winter coats and earmuffs! So now...
We're just walking aimlessly. But it's soooo boring... Oh, I know! I'll just talk with Tora-o! I
hope that he can write back.

'Tora-o, you there?' I waited and got a response.

'Yeah. What's up, Strawhat-ya?' Shishishi! Now I can erase the boredom away and find Tora-
o too!
'Ne, where are you? I only know that you're somewhere on this Island, but I'm sure that I'm
getting closer towards wherever you are, Tora-o.'

'Well, now that you mentioned it... I'm at the Ice Side of Punk Hazard. Specifically in
Research Institute No.3' Research Institute-wait what? That's what the buildings are for?
'Really? I'm at Ice Side, with Zoro, Robin, Usopp, and legs, too!' I don't know why, but Tora-
o took a while to answer this one. '..You're at the Ice Side of Punk Hazard with Zoro-ya, Long
Nose-ya, Nico-ya, and.. A pair of legs?'

'Yeah, I am. And the pair of legs? I found it stuck on a fire dragon's neck! Cool right?! Oh,
also I found an old man that has Alligator legs and tail!' Hm.. Whoa, that's a long one......
Huh?!

'I see... Well right now, Nami-ya, Robo-ya, Black Leg-ya, and Tony-ya are with me. They got
captured by Caesar's subordinates and got locked in a room, Caesar is intending to use them
as lab rats for his experiments. Oh, yeah, I don't see Bone-ya with them. Caesar's
subordinates probably thought Bone-ya is just a normal dead skeleton.'

...What.

No, I can't let them stay there, I have to help them, I CAN'T let them experience what I had
years ago.

.
.

No..Nonononono..tH3y'l1 3xper1enc3 wh@t 1'v3 g0n3 thr0ugh. Nonono-

Ok. Calm down... Tora-o is with them, Tora-o can help them... Right, calm down. So the
Master that Centaur old man told us is someone named Caesar? Caesar.... I think I've heard
that name before.... Ah! That gas like man! I immediately wrote back.

'Tora-o!! Are they all safe and unhurt?! Also, is this Caesar person's a guy that has purple
hair, pale skin, wears a gas coat, and can control gas?' I.. Think I should've asked something
else first, but I need to confirm this first. 'Yeah, they're alright. And they also brought the
head of the legs that you're with.. Also, that is Caesar's appearance... How do you know about
that, Strawhat-ya?'

'I'm glad that all of you are alright. Oh about Caesar, I read about him from a old newspaper
that I stole from Rayleigh! I remember that it says that, the reason that Punk Hazard became
an abandoned Island is because a chemical weapon exploded 20 years ago. Tora-o. I know
that I don't have any proof... But I think that, Caesar is responsible for the explosion... Wait,
what? They brought a what with them?'

'A head, Strawhat-ya. More specifically, the head of the legs that's with you. And, thanks for
the information. I'll be sure to use that when needed.' But how did Tora-o knew that the head
and legs are-... Why did I even think about it? 'Tora-o... You cut the person using your
"Room" Right?' Tora-o just drew a guilty face, I knew it.. Oh well, at least Tora-o didn't kill
the person.

'Ah, right! Tora-o! Where is this "Research Institute?" I know that it's on the Ice Side, but I've
only seen ruins or half destroyed buildings.' 'So the five of you are near the ruins of Research
Institute No.1 and Research Institute No.2... Just walk through the mountain. There, you'll see
a building, that's where I'm at.' That mountain? I looked at the mountain... There's something
big there...Oh! Is that it?! I turned my head around to call the others. 'Thanks Tora-o! I'll see
you later ♡'

"EVERYONE, I FOUND A BUILDING!! TORA-O AND THE OTHERS ARE IN THAT


BUILDING TOO!!!" Usopp, Robin, and Zoro stopped whatever they're doing and ran
towards me. Where?!! Where's the building, I'm freezing here!!" Usopp said, he's shivering
even though he wore a fluffy coat. I pointed towards the mountain, they looked at the
direction. "That's an old building. You sure Tora-o's there?" Zoro asked. "Of course! Look,
my Soulmark is glowing brighter when I walked closer towards the mountain!!" I folded my
coat's sleeve, Tora-o's Golden Coin is shining purple... Brr, I shouldn't have done that. I
quickly rolled down my coat's sleeve again. We then proceeded to walk to the mountain.

"Luffy, I need to ask you something." I turned my head to the side. "What is it Robin?" "You
said that you found Tora-o and the others. What do you mean by, 'the others?'" Oh yeah, I
haven't told them yet :3 "Sorry about that. I forgot to tell you guys about it." I explained
everything that I talked about with Tora-o. The three of them looked shocked, well I can't
blame them. They've never seen me read anything, even children books, let alone reading a
newspaper. "So you're telling me that the others are kidnapped by this Caesar guy's
subordinates?!!" Usopp exclaimed. Oh, so that's what they're shocked about. "Uh huh! That's
why we have to hurry, who knows what they will face there. Oh! I almost forgot, they found
the head of the pair of legs that I found before!" Then I started running, I heard they scream
'What!?' But I just laughed and kept running.

Third PoV
Once they reached the top of the mountain, they looked for an entrance. While looking,
Luffy heard a commotion and asked Usopp, Zoro, and Robin to follow him, he hid the pair of
legs somewhere so it would not slow them off. When the four of them reached the
commotion, they saw a lot of Marines, screaming and shouting to a Marine who is lying on
the ground, having a perfect and precise square shaped hole on his chest. But that's not what
surprised them the most, but it's the fact that the one standing in front of the fallen Marine
is... Trafalgar Law, (One of) Luffy's Soulmate. Luffy stared at him with a shocked but happy
reaction. Law, who noticed the stare, turned his head to the side, then he saw Luffy staring at
him. "Strawhat-ya." Law calmly said while smiling faintly at Luffy.

"Tora-o!!" Luffy shouted happily. He ran towards Law, made his arms longer, and hugged
him tightly. Law almost stumbled, but he managed to keep his balance and let Luffy hug him.
The Marines who were screaming and shouting at Law, stopped abruptly because of Luffy's
sudden appearance. "W-what is 'Straw Hat' Luffy doing at Punk Hazard?! And why is he
hugging Trafalgar Law?!!" One Marine exclaimed, surprised. Law glared at the Marine and
sneered at him, "Is there any problem with one of my Soulmates hugging me?" Law said
angrily, he is quite annoyed by the G-5 Marines coming here, but that Marine's question just
annoyed Law even more. All of the Marines' jaw dropped at what Law just said, they knew
that their trip to Punk Hazard is not going to be easy, but they never expected... This.

"What the hell are you all still doing here? Did it ever cross your minds that White Hunter-
ya and that swordswoman captain of yours might be injured? Now scram, I have something
more important to do." The G-5 Marines tried to attack Law, but before they can do that, a
flow of light purple gas filled the area.

"Shororororo.. And here I thought that everything had been taken care of, Law." The gas like
man said to Law. "The battle had already finished, Caesar... If I could even call that shit
show, a battle." Law replied.

Luffy, who heard what Law had called the newcomer, froze. He slowly let go of his hug
(Surprisingly, it went unnoticed by Law) and sneaked behind Caesar. Law noticed that Luffy
is right behind Caesar, went wide eyed. Because Law could've sworn that Luffy is still
hugging him.
'How come I didn't notice him letting go?!' Law shouted internally.

Caesar then said, "Is that so? I guess the 'White Hunter' Smoker is weaker than I initially
thought... I actually wanted to- ACK!!" His neck is being strangled by, none other than,
Luffy.

"You! YOU LITTLE SHIT, WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING!!"
Caesar screamed angrily at Luffy. But Luffy didn't budge, he kept his hands on Caesar's neck,
he even tightened his grip. Luffy lowered his face to Caesar's ear and whispered in a hollow
voice,

"To find out about the truth of the incident 20 years ago and capture you, Caesar Clown. I'm
sure that Joker will be livid when he knew that I captured you, the main piece of the Smile
Devil Fruit's productions."

Caesar wanted to scream but- *Bang! Bang! * Two shots rang into the air, then a light gray
gas spreads around the area. Nothing happened for a while, before multiple loud *thuds* can
be heard. Caesar jumped from the sound but he recovered when he felt the hands on his neck
disappears. He turned around and he saw Luffy lying on the ground. Caesar is confused by
this, he looked around, Law, Robin, and the G-5 Marines were all down, lying on the snowy
ground. (Zoro and Usopp were searching the building) Now Caesar is even more confused.

'What the hell is that sound from before? It sounded like a gunshot.' Caesar thought. "I've
shot two sleeping gas bullets. Since you can control gas and air, I figured that you wouldn't
be affected by it." Someone said while walking towards Caesar.

Caesar turned around and looked surprised.

"Ah, Vergo! It's a surprise to see you here today. Is there anything that I can help you with?"
Caesar asked to the man. "No, nothing... But I do want to have an interrogation. Can you
arrange that?" Vergo answered and asked Caesar.

"An interrogation? That can be set up, but can you please carry some of the people that you
wanted to interrogate? I'll carry the rest, but it depends on how many people you're trying to
interrogate." Caesar said. Vergo looked around,

"I only wanted Law and Strawhat, but it seems that there's also some interesting people here
too, so I'll take them. I'll take Strawhat, Law, and Smoker. You can take Nico Robin and that
blue haired swordswoman." Caesar gave an okay sign and carried Robin and the blue haired
swordswoman using gas tendrils and they both walked into the building, leaving the rest of
the G-5 Marines outside.

Research Institute No 3, New World

Robin opened her eyes, she seemed confused by whatever's happening. She felt something
is holding her body, she looked down and noticed that she has Sea Stone chain locked onto
her waist. She panicked for a second, then she looked around, it seems like she's locked in a
Sea Prism cage with Law, Luffy, Smoker, and Tashigi (the blue haired swordswoman). Robin
didn't know what their captor(s) want from them, but she had no choice but to just stay still.
A few minutes later, everyone woke up.. With two people talking and acting very... different.

"Shororororo. It seems that all hostages are now awake." Everyone turned their heads
towards the voice, they saw Caesar Clown with a greenette and a very stoic man wearing
dark glasses and... an egg stuck on his cheek.
"Monet, can you please start the recording? Vergo here wants to interrogate while the stream
is on." Monet nodded and went towards the computer. "Now let's start the interrogation, shall
we?" Vergo walked closer towards the cage and stared at Law.

"It's been a while, Law." Vergo started. Law sneers at the man with pure hatred. "Don't act as
if nothing had happened." Vergo then reached his pocket and squeezed something. Law
screamed in pain because of whatever Vergo's squeezing. "Hey, Tora-o what's wrong?! Hey,
you! What did you do to Tora-o?!" Luffy shouted at Vergo. He didn't say anything, but then
he took out what's in his pocket... a heart. A beating heart. "You keep quiet, or else I'll
squeeze your Soulmate's heart again."

Luffy stayed quiet but mumbled something incoherent. "S-straw..hat-ya.." Law called Luffy,
his face is quite pale and he's in a lot of pain. Luffy turned his head to face Law and scooted
closer to him, so that Law can lean on his shoulder. Luffy smiled at him when Law leaned
onto him, then he gave a signal that only Law and Kid knew. Law freezes but he regained his
composure. ".. I trust you." Law whispered to Luffy.

Vergo then started to ask them various questions about their reasons to be here, which turns
out that Smoker, Tashigi and the G-5 Marines are here because they intercepted the
emergency call the Strawhats' received and that it came from this Island. Luffy looked
offended, but he managed to hide it, except from Robin and Law. All the while, Vergo looked
annoyed at Luffy and Law's affection display.

"Are you that attached, that you have to lean on your weakling Soulmate, Law?" Vergo
mocked. Law angrily shouted at Vergo, but Vergo squeezed his heart again which ended with
Law screaming in pain while still leaning on Luffy. When Vergo stopped squeezing Law's
heart, Law looked terrible. He's whimpering in pain, panting heavily, and face paler than
before. That's when Luffy slowly sees red.
"The live stream is now on, Caesar-san." Monet said to Caesar. "Oh, has it? Well, it was nice
knowing you all, but now.. It's time for your lives to end." Caesar said while laughing.
Suddenly, something opens and the cage slowly goes down and stopped when it floated in
front of the building.

"NOW MY DEAR UNDERGROUND WATCHERS, THE MOMENT YOU'VE ALL BEEN


WAITING FOR. IT'S TESTING TIME!!!" Caesar said happily from the microphone. Then,
purple gas started filling the area below the cage.

"W-what should we do, Smoker-san??!" Smoker? said to Tashigi. "Calm down Tashigi, think
of ways to escape using a calm head." Tashigi? Said to Smoker.

This confused Luffy and Robin, Law noticed their confusion said, "I swapped their souls
using my power. Now White Hunter-ya is in Tashigi-ya's body and vise versa." Smoker, in
Tashigi's body, glared angrily at Law. "You better fix this Law." Said man just rolled his eyes
and scooted closer to Luffy wanting to feel his radiating warmth even more.

"Tora-o?" Luffy asked to Law. Law just stayed quiet, so Luffy stayed quiet too. Both of
them missed each other and Kid. They always tried to contact Kid via writing, but it always
ended in vain. No replies, no angry drawings... Nothing.

When the gas almost reached the cage and when Luffy's sure that Caesar wasn't looking at
the cage anymore, he slowly stood up while holding Law's head. This shocks everyone else
in the cage.
"How did you release the chains, Strawhat?!" Smoker asked. Luffy just shrugged and said,
"Survival skills are important in cases like this y'know." He then took out a pin and started
opening their chain locks too.

When Luffy is opening Law's chain lock, he whispered something to Law. Whatever it is that
Luffy whispered, it's enough to make Law's eyes widen in surprise.

"Really?!" Law asked to Luffy, he sounded happy, which shocked Smoker. Luffy nodded at
Law's question, Law looked happy at the confirmation. He then used 'Shambles' and
teleported his sword, Kikoku, to cut open the cage into two and jumped off. Luffy jumped
and Law caught him and they both smiled.

Robin then jumped after Luffy and lastly Smoker and Tashigi. Law swapped them back into
their respective bodies (He only swapped them back because of Luffy's request)

They all walked inside the Institute, planning to end this circus show. Smoker, Law, and
Luffy all have a plan of their own to end this.

Half An Hour Later


The G-5 Marines just barely escaped from the deadly gas that Caesar unleased. When the
door got cut in half by Zoro, the Marines put their guards up. "Why does the Strawhat Pirates
and Trafalgar Law are with you and Captain-chan, Smo-yan?!" One of the Marine asked.

Art By : Me ( Miko_Akane )

"Listen, me and Tashigi only got caught with them, we're making a temporary alliance to
escape this place and escort the test subjects." Smoker explained. Suddenly, the door
explodes and the gas from outside slowly filled the area.

"AAAHHHHH!!!! Start running and hurry! The gas is coming!!!" Usopp screamed.

Everyone ran towards the door connecting to Section B. There are some of the Institute
workers, Mutant Spiders, and a Dragon trying to hold them back in Section A, but the
combatants managed to defeat them with ease, while the others ran for their lives.

"Alright, listen up you two." Smoker said to Law and Luffy.


"I'm going this way. You two can do what ever you want, just don't follow me." Luffy just
stared at him while Law snorted. "Who knows? We might cross path again, White Hunter-
ya." With that, the three of them go to a different direction from the other.

"Strawhat-ya." Law called. Luffy stops and looks at Law with questioning eyes.

"Listen.. If you found her first, can you tell her I said 'hi'?" Luffy pouted and said, "No, you
tell her yourself Tora-o! Don't say anything like that again! It's as if you expected to be dead
in this Island."After he said that Luffy left, leaving Law alone. Law sighed but he smiled at
Luffy's answer, then he walks away to find his stolen organ and fight the one who's giving
him trauma.

Law reached a door, coincidentally, he's there with Smoker.

"What the hell are you doing here?" Smoker asks. "How am I supposed to know, White
Hunter-ya? If I didn't know better, I would've thought that you're following me." Smoker
glared at Law but Law didn't even look at him and opened the door. Inside of the
room, Vergo is waiting for Law, though he never thought that Smoker would be here but that's
not a problem.

"Law. You're finally here." Vergo said as stoic as usual.

Law snorted, "I don't have time to chitchat with you, Vergo." Vergo looked annoyed.
"It's Vergo-san for you." He then squeezed Law's heart, it made Law clutch his chest while
Smoker tried to attack Vergo. But Smoker's attack ended up in vain, since Vergo caught it so
easily. "Why are you doing this, Vergo?!!" Smoker shouted angrily. Truth to be told, Smoker
knew that there's a traitor in G-5, but he didn't expect that the traitor is Vergo.

They both fought Vergo, but Vergo is too strong for them, especially with his full body
Armament Haki it's making their job harder. Vergo caught Law by the neck and chokes him,
Law tried to call a 'Room' but Vergo squeezed the jelly box that contains Law's heart. Law
screamed in pain while Vergo tightened his hands on Law's neck, if this continues then Law
will pass out or worse die. When Law sees black spots on his vision..

*Crash* *Shing* *Splatter*

A sword managed to cut halfway on Vergo's arm, making him release his grip on Law's neck.

Law almost fell down, but before he did, the newcomer catches him.

"Be careful now, I don't want you to be injured even more." The person said. Vergo clutches
his slashed arm, blood is flowing out from the wound. Smoker looked shocked at the
newcomer's action and the fact that the newcomer is someone dangerous.

"You.. Why are you here?!" Smoker asked, there's a hint of fear and surprise in his tone. The
person chuckled a bit "Don't worry, I'm not here to kill you or your soldiers, White Hunter.
I'm here for my little brother." The person said.

"'Assassinator' Reimu. Bounty, 658.000.000 Berries, current age; 32. So you're the one who
had been taking care of Law, huh?" Vergo asks. Reimu stood up and stands firmly in front of
Vergo, trying to protect both Law and, surprisingly, Smoker.

Art By : Me ( Miko_Akane )

"So you're the one who made Law traumatized at a young age? Very well then, I'll have no
choice but to kill you." She spins her sword before dashing towards Vergo, intending to cut
his head off.

Vergo guarded himself by using Armament Haki but Reimu's sword gave Vergo some paper
cuts, Vergo is surprised by this.

"How.. Can you-"


"There are things that are called researching and training, you foolish man." They fought for
a few minutes but it was clear that Vergo couldn't keep up with Reimu's agility and swiftness,
especially when all he, and Smoker, can see is just shadows running around.

Then.. Vergo fell to the cold flooring with blood flowing out from his halfway cutted arm, the
deep paper cuts, and... from the place where his head used to be. Reimu is standing above
Vergo, with Vergo's head on her hand.

She placed the head beside the dead body, wiped some dust on her coat and casually walks
towards Law, as if she didn't just committed murder.

"Hey! What do you think you're doing, Assassinator?!" Reimu turned her head to face
Smoker,

"What is it to you? I'm just checking my little brother. If you want, you can leave, just say
that I murdered that.. Asshole."

Smoker looked shocked, "Little brother!??" She nodded and grabbed Kikoku. Smoker looked
at Vergo's dead body then looked back at Reimu.

"Why don't you.." Reimu placed Law on her back and placed her hands on his legs so he
wouldn't fall off while she carries him.
Reimu looked at Smoker, "Why don't I kill you right now? Huh.... Now that's something no
one has ever asked me. You know, I might be an Assassin, but I don't kill aimlessly. I only
kill when it's necessary, those fuckers from the World Government just exaggerates it."

With that she walked towards the dead body, grabbed Law's heart and walked away. But
before she's out of the room,

"Oh, right. Before I forgot." She threw something to Smoker. He looked at it, there's a jelly
box with a heart in it.. His heart. "Alright, bye~" She left the room with a confused Smoker
and a very dead Vergo.

A Couple of Hours Later

Everyone had managed to escape from the Research Institute before the gas fills the entire
place. Right now, the G-5 Marines are preparing to send the childrens, who were used by
Caesar as test subjects, back to their homes. Law had already operated on them to make their
addiction to a drug, that Caesar always gave them, disappears.

Meanwhile, Luffy managed to caught Caesar and tied him up with a Sea Stone chain. Caesar
is being guarded by Reimu, who scares the living hell out of Caesar because she glares at him
each time he tried to talk, while Law is sitting not too far from Reimu, he missed his older
sister whom he hadn't met for 10 years.
Luffy is running around, chasing the children in a game of tag to ease their minds, while
Chopper and Nami are keeping an eye on the children (and maybe Luffy too) Sanji is making
a soup in a very large pot for everyone here, Robin is talking to one of the Marines, Zoro and
Tashigi are bickering with each other, especially since they found out they're Soulmates,
Franky is doing some repairs on Sunny, while Brook is talking with Kin'emon and his son
Momonosuke. (Kin'emon had been attached back).

When it's time for the G-5 and children to leave, the children gave each of the Strawhats,
Law and Reimu too, a piece of clear colored crystals. Nami's eyes instantly lits up when
seeing the crystals, especially when the crystal the children gave is a Crystalline, a rare type
of crystal that can be sold for 300.000.000 Million Berries to 2.000.000.000 Billion Berries.
The Strawhats, Law, Reimu, Kin'emon, Momonosuke, and their hostage Caesar, sailed first
before the G-5 Marines. They said their goodbyes, with Zoro's goodbye to Tashigi is a hug
and a kiss on the cheek, and sailed away to their next destination... Dressrosa.

Chapter 11 : Arrival at Dressrosa

Dressrosa, New World


The Thousand Sunny have reached the Southwest outskirts of Acacia, one of the towns in
Dressrosa. Law, Luffy, Zoro, Robin, Usopp, Franky, Sanji, Reimu, and Kin'emon (and
Caesar) went off the ship, while Brook, Nami, and Chopper guards the Sunny and
Momonosuke.

"Alright, do any of you have any questions on the plan before we go into the Island?"
Nobody said anything so Law continued, "Okay, so now we're splitting the group again to
avoid suspicion. I'll go to Green Bit to bring Caesar there, anyone want to go with me?"
Robin and (surprisingly) Usopp raised their hands. Law nodded at them, "So Nico-ya and
Long Nose-ya will come with me, the rest go into the city. Understood?"

They nodded except for Reimu, which didn't go unnoticed by Law, "What's wrong sis?"
Reimu looked at Law.

"Oh, I actually got a letter from Jiro, asking me for a talk in Dressrosa, she even gave me an
Eternal Pose leading here. She said she's coming here with some Captains, a Vice Admiral,
and another Admiral, I think the other admiral has the Zushi Zushi no Mi. That devil fruit
allows the user to control gravity" Hearing this, Luffy turned his head towards Reimu. "You
too Rei?!"

"What do you mean by that, Lu?" Reimu is surprised by Luffy's words. Luffy gave her the
exact same letter that she received from Jiro 3 days ago. She opened the letter and the
contents are the same except their honorifics and names.
"When did she gave you this?" Reimu asked Luffy, "Last night. Jiro's pet Pidgeon, Miki,
came and gave it to me."

Everyone, except Reimu, were shocked by this especially Law.

"What?! So you two, indirectly, just told us that there would be a fleet consisting of a lot of
Marine soldiers, some captains, a Vice Admiral, and two Admirals coming to Dressrosa?!!
Why didn't any of you told me sooner!?" Law panicked when hearing this information, he
never expected for the Marines to come to Dressrosa. Dealing with Doflamingo and his damn
family is already a big problem for Law, and now this?!

As he's grumbling and thinking of a plan to avoid the Marines, Law suddenly felt something
caressing his head. He looked up, only to see Reimu smiling at him while patting his head.
Law's face turned red in embarrassment and lowered his head. The others chuckled and/or
smiled at him, much to Law's dismay, "S-sis, stop it.."

Art By : Me ( Miko_Akane )
Reimu chuckled a little before she pulled her arm back, "Aww, but you just radiated a lot of
stressed aura, there's no way I'll let you stay like that the entire time we're here. Dressrosa is a
lovely island, famous for foreigners that wanted to find their Soulmates, once Doflamingo is
defeated, take a break in this island and spend time with Lu." She then turned around, facing
the path towards the city.

"Okay, now that's done. I'll be taking my leave, I'd rather not let my friend wait. Bye
everyone~" With that, she ran really fast and jumped to one of the cliffs. Everyone's, except
Law and Robin, jaw dropped at Reimu's, definitely not normal, departure.

Then Robin looked at Law with curiosity. "Tora-o, what does Reimu-san means by 'aura'?"
Law looked at her back, quite confused by her sudden question but he answers her.

"That's something that I still couldn't wrap my head around. From her eyes, she sees like a
flow radiating from any living things, and that it has different colors depending on the living's
emotion. I didn't believe her at first, but she kept knowing whatever I'm feeling each time. So
naturally, I got used it. To this day, it's still a weird and confusing ability or sense to
understand."

Robin seemed to be in deep thought from this piece of information. Because, for her, this
kind of ability is... interesting. If it's a devil fruit's ability, then she'll understand, but the thing
is...
Reimu is not a Devil Fruit user.

Reimu is a normal human, if one ignores her inhumane instincts and skills, unless she
decided to eat a Devil Fruit, she's just a normal human.. An infamous Assassin/Spy with a
600 Million Berry bounty...

Okay maybe she's not, that normal, but overall she's still a normal human no matter how one
looked at it. When they stopped letting their jaws drop because of Reimu's departure, Law
said. "Alright, so Nico-ya and Long Nose-ya will go with me to Green Bit to deliver Caesar
to Doflamingo, while the rest go into Dressrosa and investigate on the whereabouts of the
SMILE factory, understood?" They all nodded, bid their goodbyes, and went their separate
ways.

Dressrosa Kingdom, New World


Franky, Kin'emon, Zoro, and Sanji, each wore a white shirt with a black coat and black
jeans whilst wearing fake mustaches, while Luffy wears a blue shorts, his yellow sash, a
(open) short-sleeved black shirt with Sunflower patterns, a bowler hat over his Straw Hat to
hide suspicion from anyone (especially Doflamingo's lackeys that are walking around
Dressrosa freely), and a...fake beard.

The other four are confused by Luffy's appearance, but they just shrugged it off as Luffy
attire is the ones that most Dressrosa's civilians wore. They went inside a casino and saw a
blind old man and a blonde haired lady playing chess - some people are either shocked or
confused with the blind man, while some didn't care and just did their own things-. At first
they didn't think much of it, but then Luffy said that she looked familiar, so he stared at the
lady and finally knew why she looked familiar. On the other hand, Sanji rolled his right
sleeve and stared at his, now glowing, Soulmark.

Both Sanji and Luffy looked at the lady, "It really is Jiro-chan!/Ohh!! Jiro!"

Jiro, who heard her name being called, looked at Sanji and Luffy's direction. Her eyes grew
big, then once she calmed down she grinned at them. Luffy grinned back, while Sanji covers
his mouth and his face is beet red. Jiro said something to the blind man beside her then she
walked towards Luffy.

"Luffy! It's been a while, did you get my letter?" Jiro asked to the point.

"It is has been a while, and yeah, I got your letter, but why did you only sent me and Rei a
letter?" Luffy asked, he is genuinely confused by the fact that only him and Reimu are the
only ones who got it.
"Oh, that, well I'll explain it later, anyways have you seen Reimu?" She asked.

"I don't know. She told us that she got a letter from you, too, said her goodbye, and jumped
on one of the cliffs and goes into the Island!" Luffy exclaimed, happily. Jiro went silent for a
while,

"....She what?! Wait, why am I surprised? She always did this whenever she's too lazy to
walk like a normal human... Though, that would be hypocritical of me, since I literally have
wings and can fly." Jiro then looked at Sanji and her face brightens at the sight of her
Soulmate.

"Sanji! I miss you so much!!" She hugged Sanji tightly, meanwhile Sanji is struggling to
form any kind of words because of her tight hug, and the feeling of... Two bouncy things on
his face.

Sanji's face flushed red from the sudden physical contact from Jiro. "J-jiro..chan...I can't
breathe.." Jiro let out a quiet, guilty, gasp before releasing Sanji from her hug. "Hehe, sorry.
But I reaaallly missed you, mon amour!"

Sanji lifted her up and spun her around. "I missed you too, my mellorine." They both laughed
at each other's nicknames, then Jiro kissed Sanji's forehead. Sanji froze and his face flushed
even redder, blood starts flowing out from his nostrils.
.

"Ahem.. I think you both forgot some things." Luffy said blankly. Sure he loves it when they
express their love to the other, but they sometimes tease or talked for hours via writing or
calling from the Den Den Mushi. The two lovebirds smiled sheepishly at Luffy and they let
go of their hug.

Once all six of them are in a circle, Luffy asks Jiro what does her letter mean. Jiro explains
that her letter is just a part of what she's requesting and that she'll explain more to him and
Reimu in a more private location. When Luffy asks why only him and Reimu are allowed to
know, Jiro answers that what she's about to discuss is something that only the two of them
understands, which confuses the others even more - especially Kin'emon since this is the first
time he saw Luffy's younger sister - but they decided to keep it inside.

"I know that my request definitely sounds suspicious, but I can guarantee you all that this is
not going to harm any of you." Jiro said trying to reassure them that she means no harm,
except Luffy and Sanji obviously, Luffy because she's his sister and Sanji because he's just
doing his silly dance while agreeing to whatever his Soulmate is saying.

Zoro, Franky, and Kin'emon thought about it for a moment, before Zoro stood up and said.
"Fine, we'll trust you, but only because you're Luffy's sister and Ero Cook's Soulmate." Jiro
nodded, at least they didn't see her as a threat. She clapped her hand once and then gave Sanji
a peck on his cheek before leaving the casino while dragging Luffy out of there. Sanji is left
dumbfounded before he realized what she did, he fell to floor rolling in joy and.. he
nosebleeds, again.

Zoro wanted to kick him, but before he did, he saw Shusui floating away, out of the casino.
Zoro ran past people and goes out of the casino...

.
.

Before taking the opposite way where Shusui is floating.

"YOU IDIOT, YOUR DAMN SWORD WENT THAT WAY. YOU LITERALLY SAW
WHERE IT GOES, HOW CAN YOU FUCKING MISS IT AND GO TO THE OPPOSITE
WAY, YOU DAMN MOSS HEAD!!!" Sanji shouted angrily at him and even (lightly) kicked
Zoro's leg. Zoro sneered at him and ran to the way Sanji pointed, with Sanji, Franky, and
Kin'emon following closely, and tried to push over the civilians to get his sword quicker.
Despite all the effort the three did to keep up with Zoro...

They lost him.. again.

"Okay, how in the world did we lost that damn moss head again!?" Sanji said trying to
contain his anger, and worry, but right now he's just so frustrated because he couldn't go and
spend more time with his Soulmate. He then told Franky and Kin'emon that he'll go to the
center of the city, while they check to the sides of the town. They agreed and separated,
wishing each other to be safe and to not get caught by any of Doflamingo's lackeys.

Corrida Colosseum, Acacia Town, Dressrosa

Now following Luffy and Jiro, they're currently walking aimlessly in the town while waiting
for Reimu. How can they be sure that Reimu will know their location? It's simple, she has
Jiro's Vivre Card for safe keeping and in return, Jiro has Reimu's Vivre Card. So right now
they're standing near a fountain, on the left side of the fountain is the main attraction of
Dressrosa, which is a colosseum called, Corrida Colosseum.

"Hey, Luffy." Jiro started. Luffy looked at her "Yeah what's up?" Jiro stared at the colosseum
before turning her head to Luffy.

"Say... are you going to participate?" Luffy looked confused, "Huh? participate in what?" Jiro
pointed at the colosseum. "Doflamingo is holding a competition right now. Whoever won can
get the main prize." She gripped her fists and paused for a moment.

.
.

"The main prize is... Ace's Mera Mera no Mi."

Luffy stared at her in disbelief. "What?" Is all he can utter for the moment. He lowered his
head, mumbling something, before lifting it up again. "Jiro, are you going to partcipate?" He
asked in a quite scary tone. Jiro trembled a little before shaking her head.

"Nope. Doflamingo had made a rule that any police nor Marines are not allowed to step
inside the colosseum. Even though there are criminals in there, the only thing they can do is
to wait outside the building before they capture the criminals. If the police and Marines broke
this rule, then they'd be considered a criminal here." She sneered, "Talk about thinking ahead
before hand. That's why I asked you if you want to parti-"

"Obviously I'll participate! I will not let Ace's Devil Fruit eaten by anyone else, it's our last
memento of Ace!!" Luffy half shouted at her.

Jiro pouted at Luffy. "Geez, I'm just making sure. Oh yeah the second reason why I asked you
to come here is because I need your help to rescue M.T." "Huh? Who's M.T?" Luffy doesn't
know who is Jiro talking about, while Jiro looked at him in an appalled face. "Dude are you
serious?! I'm talking about Taffy! T.A.F.F.Y!" Now it's Luffy's turn to be appalled.
"How did Taffy, turned into M.T?!"

"How am I supposed to know!? She literally thought of that nickname herself. M.T, the short
version of Muddy Tail!" Hearing the name Muddy Tail made Luffy remembered something.

"Wait, isn't Muddy Tail the siren in the East Blue, the one who has a 5 Million Berry bounty
for destroying every ship that came across her path and eats the humans on the passing ship?"
Jiro nodded at Luffy, meaning that it is the one she's talking about. "Yes. Apparently she's the
siren who always swam near Foosha Village's dock or the shore. Oh yeah, about how and
why can she got caught when she can just slither her way out?" Jiro took a deep breath while
massaging her temples a bit "She thought it'll be fun to be Doflamingo's pet."

....... "Huh?"

"Yeah, she fucking said that to me."

Well that's something, alright.

....Uhm...
"Anyways! We'll deal with M.T later, now where's Reimu?" Jiro tries to change the subject.
Luffy knew this but he didn't called her out on it, instead he took a bite from a beef skewer
Jiro bought him. "Now that you mentioned it, I haven't seen her anywhere or heard her
calling us. How about I check over there while you-"

"You guys seriously didn't hear me calling you both and you guys also didn't notice me sitting
here the whole time?"

. . .

Jiro and Luffy lifted their heads up, only to see Reimu right above them, calmly sitting on a
tree branch while giving them her signature warm smile.

3..
2..

1..

"AAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!! A GHOST!!" Jiro and Luffy screamed. Reimu didn't look


offended nor amused by their reactions, she just stayed at the branch while still smiling.

"A ghost huh?" Reimu let out a soft giggle. "My skin is quite pale and people often thought
that I'm a doll or a haunting spirit. Hmm... Maybe pretending as a ghost gladiator is not a bad
idea after all." She jumped down, gracefully, and landed with an almost inaudible 'thump'.

Jiro tried to hit her, but Reimu dodged her and flicked Jiro's forehead instead. "OW!" Jiro
shouted, "Why did you flick my forehead?!" Reimu looked at her, "Aren't you the one who
tried to hit me first?" "Well you're the one creeping on both me and Luffy on top of a damn
tree!!" Jiro half shouted at Reimu, she couldn't believe that Reimu just literally eavesdropped
on her conversation!

Reimu then said, "In my defense, I called you both, but you two didn't answer. So I thought
that you noticed me, since you'd literally acknowledge my presence without even looking at
me, and is too immersed in explaining your idea and info to Luffy. But now I know that none
of you noticed me."

Welp, this is embarrassing...

Jiro's face turned a bit red, because for Skypeia's sake, she's never like this! No matter how
far is the distance, she can hear anyone who called her. How can she not hear Reimu calling
her?! Reimu is literally right above her!!!
She let out a sigh and looked at Reimu. "Sh-shut up!! Ah, r-right! What do you mean by
'ghost gladiator?' Answer now." Jiro demanded, she's trying her best to change the subject.
Reimu chuckled at her attempt but she didn't push it further. "Fufu~ it's exactly what the
name means. I'll pretend to be a spirit of a dead gladiator who died there. It's going to be
really fun, seeing people scream in fear when they thought that I'm a ghost that have came to
haunt them."

Jiro stared at her in disbelief. "I-okay, how can you say that so casually?!! Are you planning
on doing that just for fun or out of boredom!?" Reimu chuckled at her, "Hehe, it might be
both, but who knows~ It's not a surprise if I told you right?" Jiro wanted to retort back, but
before she could- "AAAHHHHHHH!!!! I'M FALLLLLLINGGGGGG!!"

*Splash!!* The one screaming have fallen to the fountain not far from the three, resulting in
a lot of water splashing out of the fountain, creating a makeshift rain and wetting a lot
civilians' clothes, including the three. Everyone is surprised by the sudden event, they all
turned their heads to the fountain where they saw something, no someone, sitting inside the
fountain after falling down from out of nowhere.

"HEY, EVERYONE LOOK AT THAT!!" Someone pointed towards the fountain. "Hey..
ISN'T THAT A MERMAID??!!!" Another one shouted. "No, I don't think that's a mermaid.
That thing is too weird to be a mermaid... Perhaps it's an Eel?" The civilians murmured
amongst themselves, while the three looked pissed for different reasons.

"Why are they staring at M.T like that?!" Luffy said angrily, as he observed the civilians'
looks at the girl. How dare they looked at his Nakama in disgust?! There's nothing wrong
with M.T, the only difference between her and humans ,is that she has a tail... A strong tail at
that.
Reimu stared at M.T in curiosity and a hint of annoyance. "Oh my. I didn't know what we've
done, Jiro. We shouldn't had told her that Doflamingo is a Warlord, now she's becoming...
"Obsessed" With him. Having a different preference in men is okay, but to go to this extend?
I'm not sure if this is even okay anymore.."

"You think?" Jiro glared at the girl, still sitting confusedly in the fountain. "I think that can be
resolved later, don't we have something more important to deal with right now?" The two
young ladies turned their heads at M.T and the poor octopus gave them a sheepish look.

"M.T~" They both said eerily at the same time. M.T looked at them in embarrassment, and
fear of becoming a Takoyaki or a Sashimi.

Art By : Me ( Miko_Akane )

'It was this moment that I knew... I fucked up, REAL.BAD.' M.T thought as she looked at the
two, while Luffy went.. Who knows? He just ran off to the Colosseum- Wait. Oh, shit.
Reimu and Jiro slowly walked closer as M.T is sweating even more. "W-wait, let's settle this
peacefully okay? I'm sorry that I made you guys wet, but I didn't know that I would've been
thrown by a large guy wearing a goofy mask!!" They kept walking and getting closer, and
closer, and closer, and- M.T got an idea. "LUFFY'S GONE, AREN'T YOU BOTH GOING
TO SEARCH FOR HIM?!!!" Seems like that does the trick, as they both turned their heads
around the town square.

"Seriously Luffy?!" Jiro let out a tantrum and stomped one of her feet angrily, "Ugh, where
did he ran off to now!" M.T is relieved that their attentions are now averted from her- "Calm
down Jiro. He went to the Colosseum to participate in the competition, I sensed his
determined aura around the registration area. I'll go check on him, as I'm also participating,
and you deal with our... Sashimi on the fountain~" Reimu spoke as she gave M.T a side glare,
she's still smiling, but her mind is filled on a lot of recipe on how to cook an amoeba.. Wait,
no, an octopus.

Shhiiiiiiitttt!!! Why does Reimu have that damn ability to sense anyone!?!! M.T's face went
pale as Reimu said that.

Reimu bid her goodbye to Jiro and went to the Colosseum. Jiro did a slow head turn towards
M.T, she's smiling creepily at her. "Now, how shall I take care of you, Umi-chan~?" Yup,
M.T may say her last wish...
She wished to find her Soulmate and be patted on the head by Doflamingo.

Chapter 12 : The Exchange Team's Condition

Acacia Town, Dressrosa


Three men and a lady can be seen sitting together on the patio of a cafe. At a glance, people
would think that they are just enjoying their food and drinks while chatting with each other.
But if they looked closer, then they can notice that all of them are wearing a disguise and that
one of the men is tied up using a chain.

The hooded man wearing a fake mustache took a sip of his coffee. "So, to conclude all of the
information that we've gained." He took a pause before he starts talking. "There is only one
way to go to Green Bit, and it's by crossing the iron bridge behind me." He pointed to the
bridge, that has warning and danger signs on it, behind him. "But the problem is, even if the
bridge is made out of iron, the waters nearby were surrounded by hundreds of Fighting Fish
and no one who had gone across the bridge had ever returned." The other two men are
terrified with how the bridge looked like, while the lady seemed intrigued by this.

"Hold on Tora-o. How exactly are we planning to cross the bridge?" The hooded man, who
revealed to be Law, gave her a glance before returning his focus on his cup of coffee,

"That, is something we need to plan. That old man we asked before told us that the bridge
used to be the connector of Dressrosa and Green Bit. It is still now, but 200 years ago a lot of
Fighting Fish starts to surround the waters under the bridge. No one knows why, nor are
they're brave enough to find out. But there are some people who went there just for the thrill
and challenge... Something my two idiots would definitely do."

The lady, Robin, chuckled at the last sentence. "I believe that they will always be okay, since
they have inhumane strength and you're their Soulmate, so I'm sure that they'll live. Though I
wonder, since the three of you are Soulmates, then who is going to be....
The bottom?"

Law's face turned beet red, Usopp is laughing awkwardly, Robin is giving Law an all
knowing smile, and Caesar just wanted this, definitely awkward and weird conversation, to
end.

Usopp frantically shakes his hands, giving Robin signs that she needs to stop for now and ask
that later, but Robin doesn't seem to caught on so Usopp said, "R-robin, I.. don't think that's
important for our mission. What's important now is how we will cross the bridge safely." Law
internally thanked Usopp for the topic change. "What Long Nose-ya said is true, but the only
way possible is to just cross the bridge normally." Usopp and Caesar looked at Law in fear.
"Oh-Are you kidding me Tora-o!? That bridge is definitely unsafe, and there's a lot of deadly
fishes down the bridge waiting for it's next victim. And you're saying that we have to just
cross through the deadly bridge?!! No way, I think I have the 'I can't cross the deadly iron
bridge' disease..."

"Do you have a better plan?" Law said, annoyed by this. He just wanted for all of this to end..
Huh? Law felt something, no someone, writing on his right arm. He looked over to his right
arm, and he immediately wanted to scream or hit his head hard on the table. The other three
noticed this but they decided to stay quiet and not say anything while listening to Law's
groans of frustration.

Law grabbed Kikoku, while still grumbling about something, and told Usopp to grab Caesar,
they're going to Green Bit now. Usopp just complied he didn't dare to say anything,
especially when Law was suddenly in a very fowl mood. Caesar tried to scream for help, but
one side glare from Law and Caesar almost pissed his pants. Robin couldn't help but wonder
what was it that Luffy wrote that made Law this angry. She managed to see the writings and
she had to hold a chuckle from coming out. There, Luffy wrote ;

'TORA-O! I'M JOINING A BATTLE ROYALE FOR ACE'S DEVIL FRUIT WITH REI.
SORRY ABOUT THE CHANGE OF PLANS, LOVE YOU!!!'

Chapter 13 : A Farewell Message From The North

Corrida Colosseum, Dressrosa


"Whoa! You look awesome Rei!!"

"Fufu, you really think so? Thanks for the compliment Lu."

Both Reimu and Luffy, and hundreds of other contestants, are now inside the Colosseum
waiting for the Battle Royale to start. The contestants came from different islands and
backgrounds, there are Pirates, Bounty Hunters, Thieves, and there's even a King
participating! Luffy looked around the Colosseum and is amazed by the amount of
contestants and the sheer strength they're showing off.

Suddenly a giant axe is thrown towards Reimu, but Luffy caught the axe and threw it to the
floor, gaining the attention of the others.

Someone clapped purposefully loud, "Wow, old man. I never thought I'd see an old crippled
man in the Colosseum, and with a sexy lady at that!! Your daughter perhaps?"

The guy, the name on his chest said 'Spartan', licked his lips and gave Reimu a leering and
lustful look towards her, which she ignored, but when Spartan noticed that she didn't even
glance at him, he then turned back to Luffy.
"Although I admit that you're quite strong, you should leave old man. This isn't the place for
the likes of you, but the perfect place for you," Spartan starts running towards the two, "IS IN
THE AFTERLIFE, WEAKLING!!!"

When Spartan almost reached him, Luffy extended his arm to grab Spartan's arm and
slammed him to the floor, creating both a commotion and and damage to the floor as Spartan
fell quite deep into the ground. Everyone stared in shock and amazement at the old man who
had just thrown a guy that is younger and thrice his size - oh if only you knew who's that 'old
man' is - and they starts to cheer at Luffy.

When they heard the commotion, a young lady wearing a gladiator costume came with some
medics, who also wears the same costume, and the lady immediately ordered the medics to
carry the guy using a stretcher while she stays in the waiting room, fuming with annoyance
and anger, as she placed her hands on her hips and glared at Luffy.

"Sir, the rules stated that participants are not allowed to fight with each other except inside
the Arena. You, sir, have violated one of the rules and therefore you are disqualified. Please
leave imme-" "Excuse me miss, but can you listen to me first?" The lady stopped talking and
looked at an old man that has a very long beard, and a funny looking forehead, that is
accompanied with two younger guys standing beside him.

"Everyone here saw that Spartan is the one throwing the axe and tried to punch him first.
What the old man is doing is justified and is an act of self defense, and therefore he's not
breaking any rules in the Colosseum. If anything, Spartan is the one violating the rules by
attacking the old man and his companion first, only because he thought that he's weak."

The lady looked around for confirmation, and everyone around nodded, so the lady turned
back to Luffy.
"Alright sir, since your action is proven as an act of self defense, you will not be disqualified,
but don't make anymore commotion or problem before the tournament even started." She
huffed a little and she left the waiting room.

Luffy turned to the guy and bowed his head. "Thanks a lot, old man!"

The old man looked at Luffy and laughed. "Hahaha!! You're also an old man, but what you
just did was a good way to show the other participants of how strong you are. Though don't
expect the others to be weak, I'll win this tournament with my grandsons, and win the Mera
Mera no Mi."

"No way! I'll win the tournament and get the Mera Mera no Mi!!" Lufy retorted back, but at
the same time he feels even more fired up to win the tournament, get Ace's devil fruit,
destroy the SMILE factory, and defeat Mingo!!

Meanwhile, Reimu is writing something in her notepad. This took the attention of Luffy, the
old man and his grandsons. "What are you writing Rei?" She stopped writing and looked up
from her notepad.

"I'm writing the informations that I've gathered, from the layout of the Colosseum, rules that
are not written on the rule board, detailed info of the participants, and.. Some shocking info.
But that I will not disclose, especially in front of other participants. So I apologize if you are
interested with what I meant by 'Some shocking info', Don Chinjao, Sai, and Boo from the
Chinjao Family."
The three men looked at each other, then back at Reimu. "You really are like what the rumors
have said, Assassinator." Don Chinjao said, his voice laced with shock and amazement,
Reimu smiled at his words. "Oh really? I hope that my rumors are not disappointing to you."

"No it's not, in fact it's too interesting and funny that I couldn't help but wonder on why
people made these rumors about you. But the most funny I've heard is a rumor stated that...

You escaped illegally from your island."


Reimu laughed quite loud, but Luffy can notice that she's trying to calm herself down.

He looked around and saw an empty corridor, Luffy grabbed Reimu's arm and sprinted
towards the corridor. Neither Reimu, Don Chinjao or his grandsons could even have time to
comprehend on what had just happened, so while being dragged, Reimu just waved
awkwardly at Don Chinjao and his grandsons as she and Luffy disappeared from the waiting
room.

Sai stared at the corridor Luffy and Reimu ran to. "What was...that??"

Boo looked at his older brother, "No idea. But it's kind of amusing, knowing that one of the
most wanted people is here, makes me all fired up." Don Chinjao just laughed at his
grandsons' antics.

"Knowing that 'Assassinator' Reimu is participating, this tournament will become exciting
and fierce. Still, that guy who is her companion could not be ignored. The fact that he's
Assassinator's companion tells us that he's not an ordinary old man, especially with how
much power he used to throw Spartan to the floor, it's obvious that he is holding back."
---

"...Thanks Lu, I would've had a panic attack if I was still in the waiting room." Luffy only
nodded at her and lets go of his grip on her arm. He then stared at his left arm, which didn't
went unnoticed by Reimu. She leaned over to see what Law is writing to Luffy and froze
when she saw what he wrote.

"Lu.. Do you know what Law had just wrote to you?!!" She said frantically and her voice is
raised a little. Luffy looked at her in shock because she never raised her voice, unless it is
something worrying or important, so he could only shook his head because he didn't
understand the lines and dots his Tora-o had written to him.

Reimu's expression showed worry and fear. She grasped Luffy's hands with her own and
looked at him in the eyes. "Listen Lu, we have to win this tournament, and fast. We can't
waste any of the limited time we have any longer." This only made Luffy even more worried,
both for her and Law.

"Rei, did Tora-o wrote something bad to me?" She stayed quiet for a moment.

"Yes. The writing he had written is a code... And the code says-"
~~~

"What the hell is this?"

Morse code, he realized, but he didn't understand it so he'll just ask Killer to translate it for
him.

As he walked through the corridors of his base, he remembered some memories with both of
his Soulmates that day.

When they fought together on Sabaody, playfully arguing with each other, telling their own
pirate lives before arriving here, and they even promised each other to depart to the New
World together...

But that promise was quickly broken off when the War of The Best happened.
He's not blaming Luffy, of course, he also didn't blame Law. In fact, he didn't blame anyone
except those Marines.

Those who was supposed to protect the innocent civilians, those who upholds 'Justice', those
who said that they are the 'Good' ones while the Pirates are the 'Bad' ones, those who are
repairing and protecting the world from 'Injustice' and 'Vile' Pirates. But it turns out?

Marines were as vile as Pirates.

The Navy didn't hesitate to kill, didn't hesitate to manipulate, gaslight, guilt trip, faking and
changing the truths on the newspapers if the contents were to harm their reputation. Hell!!
They didn't even hesitate to destroy an island and let a lot of people die, 'Collateral Damage'
they said.

Oh the irony, that's what made Kid hate- no, despise them.

In War of The Best, the Marines didn't hesitate to manipulate one of old man Whitebeard's
ally by giving said ally fake information that would make him attack Whitebeard, and he did,
oh he sure did. But old man Whitebeard's too kind, he forgave his ally (read: Son) and just
laughed it off, even though the stab wound is quite deep but he fucking ignored it.
And how he could never, ever, forget about the reason that full blown war happened,

'Fire Fist' Ace.

He didn't even know why the hell the Marines thinks that publicly announcing that they have
captured 'Fire Fist' Ace would be a great idea. Idiots, all of them... Well not all but those
Marines who actually uses their brains are like, 4-7 people, Luffy's little sister is one of the
Marines who still have an actual sense of 'real' justice.

Speaking of Luffy, oh his rival and youngest Soulmate, he couldn't even remember when was
the last time he felt like that. Sadness, anguish, guilt, fear, every one of it stabs right through
his heart when he heard Luffy's sorrowful cries, begging for 'Fire Fist' to wake up and stop
joking around, but of course, that never happened.

'Fire Fist' Ace is fucking dead. All because he's the son of the late Pirate King??? He couldn't
wrap his head around that fact, nor can he understand how could the Navy have such double
standards just because of who their parents are?? What kind of bullshit is that?!

He feels like shit now, remembering these memories. He should've just remembered the
lovely, but short, time at Sabaody with his Soulmates, but nooo, his damn mind made him
spiral to the shitshow called War of The Best.

Oh if time travel exists then he would- "Kid? Hello, earth to Kid, anyone there??" He stopped
his thinking and looks up, he just realized that he's looking to floor the whole time, at his first
mate and best friend, Killer.

"Yeah I'm here now, oh yeah I need to ask you something." Even though he wears a mask,
Kid knows whatever expression Killer is showing, and right now he's giving him a confused
look.

"Are you just going to ignore the fact that you've been standing here, staring at the floor, for
half an hour?" Wait what?

Kid raised an, nonexistent, eyebrow. "It was that long? I thought it was just a few seconds or
a minute." He looked at his right arm again, Killer noticed it and frowns.

"You really should talk to them Kid. They're must be worried sick about you, and you cutting
off contacts like that will not do you any good." He gave Killer a glare, but there's no anger in
it, but knows that his best friend is right. It was quite a rash, and a bit stupid, decision. His
Soulmates might not say it, but both them are quite protective of their beloved ones,
especially Law who is a damn worrywart even though he shows it subtle actions, but it's
pretty obvious if someone would see through his cold demeanor.

But he still couldn't face them yet! There's no way that Law and Luffy would want him
anymore when they see- "Kid, you know that they don't care about your looks right? Even if
you only have one arm now, they will still love you no matter what."

...Kid didn't know on whether to thank Killer to make him snap from his intrusive mind, or
annoyed that Killer have cut him off, again.
"I know that, but I'm not ready to face them yet." Killer sighed at him but knows that Kid
wouldn't budge if he sets his mind on something. "Anyways, you can read morse code right?
Can you translate what Trafalgar had wrote to me? I don't understand a single fucking thing
about these lines and dots."

Killer stared at him in shock, but at the same time he's happy that Kid didn't erase a message
from Law or Luffy this time, unlike what he usually do before. He walks closer as Kid
extended his right arm. Killer stared at the morse code and froze when he was done reading
it.

He looked up at Kid and held his shoulders firmly, this confuses Kid.

"Kid. I know that you said that you're not ready to meet Trafalgar and Straw Hat, but
you have to go to where they are, right now."

Kid stared at him, he doesn't understand Killer's sudden change of tone, from casual to
urgency. "Why?" Is all he can utter.

"Because Trafalgar is in danger."

Chapter End Notes

actual purpose of making a Soulmate AU. So I hope that this chapter will suffice
because this is the first time I made a romance fic. So yeah, also if you guys noticed
some dots " . " that's set on align center, it's temporary until I put an illustration on each
dots, but not now, art block is shit. So thanks, and see you guys later... When writer's
block going to be nice to me.

Chapter 14 : Protectiveness

Drip. Drip. Drip.


Where am I?

His vision is still blurry, he couldn't see anything and it's cold, very cold.

Oh. I'm still in Punk Hazard.

He remembered how he fought Vergo with the help of Smoker and his sister, how Luffy
defeated Caesar and the scientist is in the Straw Hats custody, and how the G-5 Marines
worked together with him and the Straw Hats to escape with the children.

Wait, but I've left that island with Straw Hat-ya and his crew.. So we have arrived at
Dressrosa then.

Some flashbacks of him, Usopp, Robin, and Caesar running, and escaping giant Fighting
Fishes towards the other side of an iron bridge to reach Green Bit.

Oh so I'm in Green Bit waiting for Doflamingo.. But then... Why do I feel like my strength is
being taken away by something? Doflamingo's devil fruit couldn't do that.
Memories of him finding out that Doflamingo had lied about his resignation from the Seven
Warlords of The Sea. How he had to fight Doflamingo, and an Admiral at the same time,
while he's bringing Caesar back to the Thousand Sunny. How he managed to bring him back
to Sunny, how he fought Doflamingo again on the iron bridge...

And how he lost, thrown back to Dressrosa, got shot, and him being shot by Doflamingo is
witnessed by his older sister and Luffy.

...That's right.. I remember now.. So I'm in Doflamingo's palace and being chained up using
Sea Prism Stone cuffs huh?

He feels like shit.

Body aching, pain everywhere, vision blurry, and knowing that Doflamingo is right beside
him, watching him creepily, makes it ten times worse.

Oh fuck he knows that I'm awake-

Before he could understand more, Doflamingo is right in front of his face, glaring while still
maintaining that creepy smile of his, this made Law's eyes widen and his body jumped in
surprise.
"Fufufu. Well, well. Look who's finally awake from his sleep." Doflamingo said while lifting
Law's face to make him look at his eyes directly, which made Law uncomfortable but he
managed to hide it with his anger.

Doflamingo held Law's chin and moved it to the right, then to the left, before harshly
releasing his grip sniffed Law's neck, this action made some unwanted memories resurfaced
into Law's mind, because the moment Doflamingo sniffed his neck, Law's instincts screamed
at him to run.

Law glared at Doflamingo. "What the hell are you doing, Doflamingo?!" He said angrily, but
in reality, he's scared, and by the looks of it, Doflamingo knew that.

"What's wrong? Don't you like it when I sniffed your neck like this? Years ago, you'd always
ask me for more than just sniffing your neck... And I always complied with your little request
at night. But because of Corazon, you rebelled and ran away with my pathetic excuse of a
brother. And now you trembled from just a single sniff? You've forgotten my touch, kitten. I'll
make sure to 're-teach' you, Law~"

No.

He had to swallow a bile that's threatening to come out. Doflamingo's words disgusts him, he
couldn't let the man do anything to him again. He have, no, must defeat Doflamingo so that
Cora-san's wish will be achieved, he must-

"ARGH!!" Law groaned in pain, but froze when he realized that Doflamingo is biting his
shoulder. "What- Get off of me!!" He tried to push him, but Doflamingo sunk his teeth deeper
into Law's shoulder, making Law groaned even more as his mind is starting to flood with
times when he was used to be 'taught' by Doflamingo.

Fuck, no. Get away, stay away from me. I hate it, stop.

Stopstopstopstopstop-

Doflamingo lets go of Law's shoulder, his bite had left a very visible bleeding bite mark that
can be seen far enough as long as it's not being hidden. He laughed at Law's disturbed face -
he laughed even more when he saw some tiny tear droplets flowing through Law's unfocused
and trembling eyes - and leaned closer to his ear.
"I'll 'reprimand' with you after I've dealt all the shitshow you've brought me." He whispered
in Law's ear. This made Law froze and suddenly, his body trembles as he, subconsciously,
tried to move away from Doflamingo. His mind was screaming at him to get away as far he
could from the blond man, but he couldn't move a single muscle.

'Run. Get away from him. Don't let him touch you again.' Are the only words his mind says
in repeat, but he couldn't do anything - because he's still stuck on the Heart Chair - besides
soundlessly letting his tears flow and hope that this will be over. His past plaguing his mind is
definitely the last thing he needs, but that's the only thing he can think right now.

Doflamingo chuckled and leaned closer to-

BANG!!

Everyone in that room froze up in shock, Doflamingo took some steps backwards, away from
Law, and looked at his now bleeding right chest. He coughed up some blood before glaring
angrily through the large window. He glared through the area that are possible places for the
sniper to shoot him, but he didn't see anyone on any of the buildings near the Palace.

"Baby 5. Scan the area and find whoever shot me." Baby 5 quickly goes to the window and
used her devil fruit power to turn her eyes into scope goggles that can let her see quite far, but
not enough to see the borders of the island. After a few minutes of searching, she didn't see
anyone suspicious even after looking around repeatedly for five times.

She looked back at Doflamingo. "I'm sorry, Young Master. But I didn't see anyone
suspicious." Doflamingo is visibly annoyed, but he decided to let his officers to search for the
sniper while he went to take care of the bullet wound. Meanwhile, Law is shocked but
relieved because Doflamingo is not focusing on him anymore and that he knows the only one
who could do such a feat.

Yeah, she's the only one who can do this.

When Doflamingo is about to leave, Luffy, and his companions, bursts into the room.

"TORA-O!!!" Law looked to the right and saw Luffy running towards him. Luffy wrapped
his arms around Law, but he quickly lets go of him because he touched the Sea Prism cuffs.
"Ouch, that burns! Tora-o are you- Tora-o... Why are you crying?"

Law froze and lowered his head, looking away. Luffy frowned and held Law's arm, Law felt
the touch and almost cried - because for him Luffy's touch felt like the sun has shined upon
him - but he managed to hold himself and stayed strong.

"Heh.. Hehe... HEHEHEHAHA!!!" Everyone turned to see Doflamingo laughing and even
wiping some tears from his eyes. "This so amusing, Law! Your Pirate friend has arrived to
your aid, without ME having to search for him!" Law glared at Doflamingo angrily. "What
does that means?!"

Doflamingo is still laughing, but when he saw that one of Law and Luffy's Soulmarks are
glowing purple, he stopped laughing but he gave Law a mocking smirk. "Oh so that's why
Straw Hat's your ally. He's one of your Soulmates? I don't understand how Fate or the
Soulmate System works, but you and Straw Hat? Ha! I guess Fate curses you even more,
Law!"
Law sees red-

Luffy's head did a slow turn, facing Doflamingo with a pissed off expression etched on his
face. "Okay first of all, fuck you. Second, who asked for your opinion? I don't think anyone
here asks for it. And lastly, before you insult someone else's chosen Soulmate, why don't you
take a long, hard look on the mirror and then maybe you'll finally understand why you haven't
met your Soulmate."

...

Pft-
Everyone, except Luffy, and Doflamingo, in the room are trying their best to hold themselves
to not laugh out loud. Doflamingo is enraged, and embarrassed, by Luffy's words - roast -

---

She doesn't know on whether to be amazed, shocked, or facepalm at her best friend... Maybe
she's feeling all of them.

"Reimu, did you really have to do that? I know that you're currently beyond pissed, but
c'mon, shooting Doflamingo? You're placing a bounty on your head."
"Jiro. I, already, am a wanted woman, and I am not afraid of a measly bounty from a blondie
who has ego issues and couldn't even walk normally. How much he's going to put on my head
anyway? Two Hundred (200) Million Berries? Tch, that's lower than the one World
Government placed on me."

Okay that's a low blow and kind of funny-

"Fine, fine. But don't you think this'll be a much worse situation for Trafalgar? Luffy's also
there y'know."

"Lu can defend himself, and I'm sure Law would rather die than be controlled by
Doflamingo, again." She said bluntly.

... That doesn't reassure me at all, idiot.

Jiro rubbed her glasses before turning around. "Well, if you're done, then meet me down
stairs.. I got some, no, a lot of information." Reimu cleaned the tip of her M82B and turned
the sniper gun into a very small silver cube before following Jiro.

---
"Straw Hat-ya..." "No!"

Luffy, Viola, King Riku, Law, and Kyros are on the Old Plateau after Doflamingo ordered
Pica to move the Palace and some of the important buildings. Luffy is currently trying so
hard to pry open the cuffs on Law, but nothing happened.

"Straw Hat-ya, I told you that it's pointless, we need the key to open these cuffs." "But
there's gotta be something I can do to at least loosen the cuffs." Law huffed at that.

"These are made Sea Prism Stones, not from an elastic material that could be stretched and
bended easily like your body, Straw Hat-ya."

Luffy pouted at him, but he knows that it's pointless to forcefully open a handcuff, especially
the Sea Prism ones.

Viola then walked towards them and said that she can try and use her power to locate the key
for the cuffs, the two watched as she activated her power and looked around. After a while
she found the location of the key, but before she could even move, the Plateau shook greatly
making the group unable to move. "AH! THE KEY!!" Law and Luffy turned towards Viola's
scream and they saw something small shone and fell down from the Plateau. Luffy was about
to make a run for it, but someone jumped up from the city below and landed right beside
King Riku, who was about to fall off the shaking Plateau.
King Riku looked at the person holding him and his eyes widened in shock. "You're.. "
"Pleasure to meet you in person, Your Majesty." Luffy smiled and waved his hand.

"Rei! I thought you're with Jiro at the Colosseum." She smiled back and walked up to him.

The wind blew softly, opposite of what is currently happening in the island, and Reimu's hair
wafts slightly, letting her golden earrings shone under the sun. She conversed with Luffy a
little - mostly him asking about Sabo - and felt something is wrong. She turned to her little
brother, who is still cuffed to the chair, and looks at him with confusion and worry.

"Law? Are you alright?" He raised his head, his face expressing anger and.. Protectiveness?

"Alright..? NO I'M NOT!" She, and the others, was shocked by his sudden outburst, "HOW
COULD I BE ALRIGHT WHEN I SAW MY SISTER WEARING SUCH REVEALING
CLOTHES, AND IN DOFLAMINGO'S ISLAND AT THAT!!!" He continued.

"... And that's why you're angry-" "OBVIOUSLY!!"

"I- thank you for your concern, Law, but don't you think that there's a bit of.. Hypocrisy in
your words? I mean having a window boob design on my clothes is not that serious, but you,
little brother, you're literally bare chested, showing your tattooed chest everywhere. So
complain about my choice of clothes once you actually wore proper clothing, brother."
When they saw Law's face turning red and his eyes darken, everyone has one thing on their
minds ; This is going to take quite a while.

Chapter 15 : Path One (Doflamingo)

"They've been fighting for almost five minutes by now." Robin said while chuckling at the
two siblings.

Law wants to drag the two and throw them into the cold, deep Sea.
Why the hell are these two fighting at this moment?! Did they forgot that they're locked up in
Doflamingo's Birdcage right now?!! His lackeys would've caught up with us if it weren't for
Reimu using one of her flying techniques to drop us right on the Sunflower Field... Just what
in the world are these two idiots fighting about!?

Just as he was about to walk over to them, his sister grabbed him by the shoulder, pulling him
back.

"Let them be, Law, it's best if we don't interfere."

"They're wasting what little time we have, sister." He didn't mean to sound annoyed, but he
couldn't hide the frustrations laced in his voice. "I understand why you're annoyed Law, but
what are you going to do once you get close to them? Hit their heads?"

"I'll cut them into pieces and scatter their body parts using Shambles."

"No."

---
After a ridiculous amount of back and forth, they decided to spilt up. Robin went to lower
grounds to help their allies, Reimu and Jiro goes into the palace's jail to save M.T, (that is, if
you remember her ) while Luffy and Law goes to the palace's rooftop to face Doflamingo via
flying.

And Law made a mental note to strengthen himself in case he has to face that weapon again.

"So how y'all planning to go up there without wasting any energy?" Jiro said while looking
up at the makeshift hill Pica just made, on the top of the hill is the Palace, where Doflamingo
is waiting.

Almost everyone gave their own ideas;

Luffy said to use his rubber power to stretch himself and then throw him and Law to the top,

Robin said to ask their allies' help to reach the top,

Jiro suggested to fly the 'D' duo up to the Palace,

Reimu suggestion is almost the same like Jiro. The only difference is that she'll use a Wind
type Jutsu to fly them to the top.

Meanwhile Law... Refused each of it.

Jiro's suggestion is pretty good, he and Luffy can reach the Palace in no time. But Reimu
reminded them that Jiro is a Marine Admiral, and Doflamingo's lackeys can just shoot them
down.
Robin's suggestion might be their best - and safest - choice, but Law's pride blatantly refused
to ask for help.

Reimu's Wind Jutsu can make them instantly land on the Palace with ease... But who knows
what kind of shenanigan shits his youngest soulmate and crew had done to his older sister's
sense of danger and safety.

And Luffy's... No. Just, no. As much as he loves the rambunctious man, there's no way in hell
he's going-

"Tora-o please~? It'll be fun to instantly reach the Palace, the faster we get there, the faster
we can kick Mingo's ass. Please~~?"

Oh, fuck.

'Why is he looking at me with those... Big cute eyes?!!'

'No. I have to keep a cool head here. Straw Hat-ya's plan is just literally dangerous and
stupid.'

But those pleading cute eyes..


'NO! Don't fall for it. I can handle his begging eyes.'

"Yosh! hang on tight Tora-o!!"


In the end, Law gave in to Luffy's incessant pleading and cute, big eyes staring at him
hopefully.

'... Why did I even tried to fight against those dangerously cute eyes..?'

Luffy tightened his hold on Law, turning his legs into springs as he looked up at the Palace.
Law is... contemplating on whether or not he should summon a Room and swap himself with
anything he could reach.

But then again,

He does not want to be attacked by those eyes again... Ever if possible.


"Hold on tight Tora-o, or else you'll fall off!"

"Straw Hat-ya, do we have to do this?" He said with an exasperated tone.

Luffy looked at Law with a sad pouty face. "Of course we do! You already agreed Tora-o, no
backing out!"

'Fucking- Just how many emotionally damaging weapon does he have?!?'

Law just gave up and let his youngest Soulmate do whatever he wants. The other three
watched as Luffy bounced up while laughing, while Law looked like he was about to vomit.

.
.

Yeah, he does not want to be at the receiving end of it again.

He closed his eyes for a moment to regather his thoughts, then he opened it back with
determination and anger filled within those golden orbs. He glared at the two men in front of
him. - And Luffy -

Doflamingo and Trebol.

Both men stared at the two Pirate captains with anticipating and slightly mocking looks.

"Heh, so you two are finally here. What is your purpose on going after me, hm?" Doflamingo
spoke up.

Luffy and Law turned at each other and nodded, then they looked back at their opponents.

"TO KICK YOUR ASS!!" "Same here."


Doflamingo laughs mockingly, then he glared at the two with a deadly smile etched on his
face.

"Then, COME AT ME!!"
