Third Person POV
New Word.
...
...
Everyone in Dressrosa had their heads lifted as the enormous islands approached the kingdom. It quickly made the common people step back, witnessing a scene they had never seen before; not even Fujitora's meteors could compare to islands approaching the kingdom.
Bepo swiftly began directing the islands like Little Garden, Amazon Lily, and Shiki's islands around Dressrosa, while Skypiea would remain 10,000 feet away.
Everyone could only keep their eyes on the islands descending from the sky. "So that's what Luffy went to do... that's truly astonishing..." Sapo commented from a corner of the city as his companions watched with their mouths agape.
Rebecca, with her family, watched the grand spectacle, while her grandfather was speechless, and her aunt equally surprised. Only she and her father already knew something like this would happen. They too, since Luffy had warned them, but they never imagined such a scenario would truly unfold.
Most of the Straw Hats just observed with calm eyes, as Luffy had made it very clear that this would happen, but the sight of islands flying across the sky and descending was still incredible to some.
Jinbei turned his gaze away from the islands while all of Luffy's guests at the port watched in shock, as he went to receive them, per Luffy's request, to organize their arrival.
"What is this?!" Cavendish, trapped on the ship, looked on in astonishment, watching the scene from a distance.
"Looks like we'll all be reunited again," Usopp commented, watching Bepo do his job from afar.
"Attention, command! We're observing Dressrosa from a distance... islands falling from the sky!!" Near those waters, a group of marine ships was gathered, watching the scene as they relayed the information back to command.
On those ships were several ranks, even vice-admirals, called to these waters after the navy's disastrous operation to capture one of the Straw Hats. Now they had to wait for major reinforcements to arrive to negotiate with the Yonko, who had made Dressrosa their current headquarters.
"What did you say?!" Akainu slammed the table in anger while on a call with the World Government at the same time. Hearing about Amazon Lily frustrated him, still remembering the episode when he went after the island and was made a fool by his enemies, a humiliating experience for him when he found out the island had been removed.
"So, as we suspected... they removed Amazon Lily using the Fuwa Fuwa no Mi. We shouldn't be surprised by this. The disappearance of Little Garden was also caused by that fruit... and we were still investigating why the island suddenly vanished..." the voice of the elders was heard.
"..." Akainu couldn't say anything other than remain frustrated and command his marines to succeed in this mission, which was more of a negotiation than an actual confrontation. After all, the navy was in a critical position, with one admiral injured and two captured by the enemy, even if one was retired.
Meanwhile, the islands continued descending, lifting the sea as they struck the waters, beginning to stabilize after some small tsunamis caused by their additional weight in the ocean. Gran Tesoro seemed small as, on all its sides, the islands started to stabilize.
"Well... we're finally back..." Luffy said with a smile in the Kuja Palace. He had asked the people of Skypiea to keep the island in the sky, as there was no point in having a sky island on the ground. But that didn't stop his people from coming to the location, either traveling by bubbles or using Geppo, as some of his people had been training for a year and months since Luffy had arrived to stop Enel back then.
"Shall we go there, Luffy?" Hancock asked in a loving tone, approaching his side.
"I wanted to wait for the Black Pearl to arrive first. After all, the ship is our home, but since it's still out of sight... it's better we head there now. Can you take our children on a ship? I'll be taking care of a few things before joining you," Luffy requested, and Hancock nodded.
He then leaped into the air, not failing to notice someone watching him—his lover Margareth with a snake coiled around her neck. Clearly, he hadn't paid much attention to her or Laki, from the Shandians, in the past few days, but he would resolve that later.
All Luffy could think about now was seeing his beloved brother after so many years, while he continued moving forward, ignoring everyone else as he headed toward one side of the city, already tracking him with his Haki.
"..." Sabo simply smiled as he looked up at the sky, seeing someone advancing toward him at high speed.
Landing in front of him, Koala and Hack became slightly alert. As a shadow approached them, Sabo walked forward with a smile.
"Sabo..." Luffy's voice emerged from the smoke, rushing toward him.
"Luffy!" Sabo said, also moving toward Luffy.
Both walked toward each other, closing the distance with a joyful smile on their faces until they finally met in a warm embrace, while Koala and Hack watched the sudden reunion unfold.
Luffy truly missed Sabo as he hugged him tightly. Maybe not as exaggerated as the original Luffy in their reunion at the coliseum, but certainly with the same feeling of having reunited with a long-lost brother, whom for many years he thought was dead.
They parted slightly after a moment, still beaming with smiles. "Look at you, you've grown," Luffy said, punching him lightly on the chest in a friendly manner.
"I've grown? Look at you, Luffy. To think that the brat who caused the most trouble in the Goa Kingdom is now in a position to move entire kingdoms into these waters, even standing above kings. An emperor of the sea... you're not even 20 years old yet, you monster," Sabo said, laughing.
"Says the man who works with my father, the second in command of the force trying to destroy the World Government," Luffy retorted.
They stared at each other for a moment, saying nothing more before bursting into laughter at their comments. Luffy was genuinely thrilled to see him, and Sabo felt the same.
"Well, how about we go somewhere to talk?" Luffy suggested, as they were still in the middle of the city. Sabo nodded, glancing at his two companions behind him.
"I'll go with him; I'll be back soon," he said, and both nodded in agreement, watching the chief's son and Sabo take off toward the sky of Dressrosa.
Luffy wanted to leave, knowing that some of his crew would soon be looking for him, and he wanted some privacy with his brother for the moment.
They ended up leaving Dressrosa, heading to one of the islands Bepo had just landed. One of the islands inhabited by dinosaurs that seemed to be fighting among themselves, while others watched and roared as if they were in the middle of a championship.
"What is this?" Sabo looked astonished, seeing dinosaurs attacking each other almost like humans, even more surprised when they began using Haki to clash.
"Ah, these are our training materials," Luffy said with a laugh in the air, while Sabo remained confused but followed him nonetheless.
They landed in a corner of the island facing the open sea, as it was the opposite side of Dressrosa. "This place reminds me a lot of that cliff in Goa..." Sabo murmured with admiration, as it was the spot where they had declared themselves brothers and shared their dreams.
"Yeah... Come on, let's enjoy a drink of sake," Luffy said, pulling out a bottle from his system and offering it to Sabo, sitting down beside him. Sabo accepted, ready to share a drink with Luffy after so long.
"You know, we intercepted some Navy communicators. They've sent a powerful group. A ship with great forces is approaching, and there's already some force gathering near these waters," Sabo warned him.
"A powerful group... I bet there's only one admiral available. Or is Akainu coming here too? But I don't think that's the case," Luffy looked at Sabo with narrowed eyes. "That man is coming, isn't he?" He smiled.
"Yes, Grandpa is coming," Sabo murmured, a bit embarrassed. He used to call Garp 'Grandpa' too, back when they lived in the Bandit Mountains, so it was easy to feel a little uncomfortable for still keeping that habit.
"Well, that sounds interesting. Lucy is already on her way here anyway. All that's missing is Ace," Luffy commented. "Have you been in contact with him?"
"Yes, Luffy, but things aren't going well for his group. I wanted to help them, but there's so much happening on this side, and Dragon can't send many troops at a time like this. You know the government is preparing to gather all the affiliated kingdoms..." he said.
"I know that, although none of my territories will participate... And I plan to help Ace as soon as my war in Wano ends," Luffy said.
"So, you're confident you can defeat two Yonkous?" Sabo smiled.
"Not just confident. I know I will win once and for all. I'll take Wano, then head to Egghead and dock in Elbaf to get the last Poneglyph... Because it's very likely from there I'll head to the end of this sea and claim the One Piece for myself..." Luffy spoke firmly, while Sabo looked at him with a certain admiration.
"Well, if you plan to do it, it's going to happen. In the end, you've definitely surpassed all of us," he murmured, gazing at Luffy with admiration.
"Almost all. Lucy might still surprise everyone," Luffy commented, wanting his sister to be as strong as him.
"I miss her too... I really want to see her," Sabo murmured, looking at the horizon.
"She'll probably cry a lot when she sees you..." Luffy smiled. "Anyway, brother, I have a gift for you," he suddenly said, as Sabo looked at him, surprised.
"I know it's still a bit early, but even so, I already want to give this to you." Luffy wasted no time as he took out an Akuma no Mi and tossed it to Sabo.
"This is..." Sabo was confused, not recognizing the fruit but surprised to receive it from Luffy so suddenly after their reunion.
"This is the fruit of Ramuh, the Eikon of Thunder. It's the only fruit in its category that no one has eaten," Luffy explained.
"Hey, like those beasts you guys can transform into? Is this fruit one of them?" Sabo murmured, surprised, knowing how valuable it was, a mythical Zoan, staring at it intently.
"Yes. It will grant you the power of the Eikon of Thunder. It will help you on your journey too, brother. Ace already has his fire fruit, Lucy has a God's fruit, I already have two fruits, so you're the only one left," Luffy said, teasing.
Sabo, though confused by the mention of Lucy's fruit, didn't ask about it. He just stared at the fruit in his hands, making a decision.
"Alright then." Sabo didn't think twice. This was a way to further increase his strength, and he trusted Luffy with his life. If Luffy said this fruit was for him, Sabo wouldn't hesitate to accept it.
In the end, Luffy nodded and simply smiled, watching as Sabo ate piece by piece, grimacing in disgust as if he wanted to vomit.
"Congratulations, brother. Now you're an Eikon like us," Luffy said with an even bigger smile. "Anyway, there's one thing you didn't know... you're going to go crazy during your first full transformation..."
"I'm going to go crazy?" Sabo looked at Luffy, surprised.
"Yes, but I have a method to prevent that, one I used on my entire crew. You just need to transform into your beast. I think this island can be used for that if you want to do it now..." Luffy suggested.
Still confused, Sabo asked, "And what method is that, Luffy?" He sensed something wasn't right, while Luffy opened a mischievous smile.
"Well... I plan to beat you up," Luffy said.

Third Person POV
New Word.
...
...
The battle between the giants began without warning in the middle of that island. It started with the sudden appearance of a bearded man, who looked old, standing at 50 meters tall, floating in the air above the island, with a giant lightning bolt shooting into the sky from his body.
But rocky lightning circled his giant body, catching the attention of all the islands around Dressrosa, as his lightning resonated in the air like a violent serpent.
As the people from all the islands in the region watched, they wondered what the hell that was and where it had come from so suddenly. Even the dinosaurs on the island where Luffy and Sabo were became a little dazed by the scene, immediately retreating from the giant. Another explosion of fire appeared in front of him, and Ifrit himself emerged.
"What is this? Is Luffy fighting someone?" Kuina asked from a distance, surprised to see the transformed light. And before she could say anything else, Zoro spoke nearby, since they had been training.
"It's an Eikon too... That means Luffy gave the fruit he was keeping to someone." Zoro commented, narrowing his eyes, unsure of who might have eaten the fruit, though he had some options in mind within that kingdom.
"Hey, what is that? How did that thing appear where Sabo and Dragon's son had gone?" Koala exclaimed, stepping back, surprised to see that side, where it seemed Luffy was fighting another giant. She recognized Ifrit from the photos of Marineford and other newspapers: Ifrit was Luffy transformed, but the old giant generating lightning was unknown to everyone.
"Who is that, imitating the power of a god?" Enel murmured from a distance as he approached to see who had the same element as him.
Suddenly, the lightning giant began launching explosive attacks at Luffy, as he was out of control and would attack anything in front of him, lighting up the place and overshadowing the daylight. A cloud of smoke exploded around Ifrit, but in the next moment, the fiery beast emerged from it, electricity running through his body from Ramuh's attack, yet he seemed unaffected. In the next instant, Ifrit charged and struck Ramuh, sending him flying several meters as he crashed into the ground from the impact of the explosive punch.
A battle then ensued between them as Ramuh got back up, floating into the air once again. At the same time, Ifrit spread his wings and advanced.
"Damn, this is bad," Lami murmured from a corner of the city, quickly watching the fire and lightning blows flying in all directions as the two beasts began to fight. Even Hugo, Usopp, and a transformed Reiju had to help try to block any attacks that came toward Dressrosa.
It was after 20 minutes of fighting that Ifrit stood over the fallen body of a defeated Ramuh, and as Luffy said, beaten. After all, Ramuh didn't stand a chance once Luffy started hitting him as soon as he flew toward him.
Now, Ramuh glowed and began to shrink back down, turning into Sabo once more, defeated, with white eyes and his mouth agape.
Ifrit glowed a moment later, shrinking down to Luffy's size as he landed in front of Sabo. "It was a good fight, brother," Luffy calmly commented as he picked Sabo up and slung him over his shoulder, heading toward Dressrosa, leaving the devastated area behind.
It didn't take long for him to arrive in the middle of the kingdom, where Yamato was with her daughter as Luffy approached. Hancock had already brought her children to Dressrosa, while the mothers held their children with Hancock, crying sadly as they had to leave them behind.
Yamato's daughter, with white hair and red eyes, and small horns, pointed at Luffy as he still held Sabo, letting his brother fall unconscious beside him.
Yamato looked at him and smiled. The same could be said for Luffy, looking at her.
"How are you?" Luffy asked, looking at her and their daughter.
"I'm fine. The mission was easy. And look at her, how she's growing." Yamato smiled at Luffy as she replied like a loving wife and to her daughter like a good mother. Yamato, who had always said she was a man to try to be like Oda, saw the real value of being a woman when her daughter was born, experiencing the happiest day of her life.
"Yes, she'll be a good girl, won't she, Nymeria?" Luffy responded as he kissed Yamato, then placed a kiss on Nymeria's forehead as she reached out to her father.
The other crew members were approaching at this moment. Robin appeared as well, holding Lumem on one side and Sinbad on the other since Vivi was not around yet. Koala came running alongside the fishman, and she immediately saw Sabo lying on the ground next to Luffy, who was talking with his crew members. She rushed over to check on him.
"What did you do to him? How could you do this to your brother?" Koala began to cry.
Luffy gave a small smile. "Don't worry. I just had to help him control his beast. He'll be fine," Luffy said calmly. "Hey, Chopper, help him." He called out as he saw Chopper arriving with Usopp, Reiju, and Uta.
Luffy waited for them to come closer before approaching Uta to see how she was. "Is she okay?" Luffy asked as Uta hugged him.
"She's fine," Reiju calmly replied from the side.
"Good, maybe we have another month before this child is born," Luffy commented with a light smile, wanting his child to arrive before the war, knowing that Uta wanted to help as well.
"Captain, what do we do now? Should we wait for your orders or train on the islands? Many people are eager to see you." Jimbei approached at this moment.
"Well... first, I want to take care of a few things." Luffy nodded at hearing this and turned to his medic. "Reiju, I want you to check on Monet. She's still a bit hurt," Luffy requested, while Chopper was already treating Sabo at that moment.
His gaze fell on a woman watching him from a short distance away. "Lami, I want you to pass the instructions to Lola in Skypiea to make and bring construction materials. We're going to build a castle here, bigger than the previous one; after all, we need shelter..." Luffy turned back to Jimbei once he finished. "Inform the whole fleet to bring the materials produced by Lola from Skypiea here, got it?" Luffy asked, and the latter nodded to him.
Quickly, everyone agreed and began working. Lola started producing reinforced stones for a pre-fabricated castle, while her fleet brought the materials using geppo. The construction began swiftly, with King Riku being surprised by how fast the castle was going up. Hugo controlled the earth and rocks, helping to speed up the construction.
In less than six hours after Luffy had given the order, the castle was ready. He gathered with Robin, Yamato, Uta, Hancock, and Mikita, who had also arrived in Dressrosa with their children.
"Well, I want everyone to settle into the castle. We have a room as big as Shirahoshi's in Fish-Man Island to accommodate all of us," Luffy said to his wives. "Now, let's see." Luffy thought for a moment, as he would soon have to deal with the Marines, sensing the presence of someone powerful, someone he knew well, approaching Dressrosa.
"Well, I think I'll handle this alone," Luffy said in the end.
"Are you sure, captain?" Zoro asked, clearly wanting to join.
"Sorry, Zoro, but this is a family matter," Luffy gave as an excuse.
"Alright then," Zoro murmured at last, accepting it.
Luffy then left Dressrosa, shooting into the air and heading out to sea in the middle of the afternoon, with a few hours left before nightfall. He sped toward the horizon, moving at high speed, and all anyone could see was a trail of fire streaking across the sky.
At that moment, the Navy ships were gathering, their numbers increasing more and more until they formed a fleet of 20 ships, with an admiral and several vice-admirals aboard the vessels.
"Buahahahahaha!!" Garp began to laugh, looking out at the sea, while everyone waited for orders to move forward and enter the Yonko's territory. The one in the highest command, who would give the orders, was none other than Kizaru himself.
"I'm the head of this operation. How scary..." he murmured, though it was his usual way of behaving. Even so, one could feel the pressure he was under, after all, the lives of the men there were all under his responsibility, and they were entering Yonko territory.
"Come on, come on, man! Let's just go see my grandson!" Garp said excitedly, giving a few pats on Kizaru's back, causing the admiral to frown in pain.
While all the marines were stunned, even the vice-admirals were nervous, wondering how Garp could act that way in such a bad situation for them.
"Come on, men! I'm just going there to beat up my grandson and grab Fujitora and Sengoku!" Garp declared, while the crowd looked on, not knowing how to respond. It seemed that the marine hero had gotten drunk on eating biscuits.
A shadow appeared in the sky, with a marine suddenly looking up toward the direction behind the ships.
"What is that?" he murmured, seeing a dot in the middle of the sun. As it got closer, he started to make out what was flying toward them, becoming startled.
"Hey, a ship is falling this way!" he exclaimed, making everyone look.
The object advanced toward the sea and hit the water hard a moment later, generating a wave of disturbance, but without affecting the marine ships. All the marines stared in surprise at the flag of the ship and its black structure, as dark as the night.
"Isn't that the Black Pearl? That's the Straw Hat's ship!" someone pointed out, shocked.
"How strange... I thought Straw Hat himself was in Dressrosa. Why did his ship show up here?"
The gossip began, and when Garp narrowed his eyes at the sight, he sensed that Luffy wasn't there, but...
"Grandpa!" A female voice called from the ship, as a girl appeared atop the head of Ifrit, which was the ship's figurehead. She looked attentively and waved her hands forward, exclaiming after sensing her grandfather there through Haki.
"Lucy!" Garp murmured, shocked.
"Grandpa, it's so good to see you! Look, Coby and Helmeppo are here... and so are Tashigi, Smoker, and Gion!" She started to exclaim, as if she were meeting old friends. It didn't seem like she had left the Marines to become a pirate, and she still acted the same way she did when she was with the Marines, smiling sincerely at everyone. Everyone there was stunned and shocked by this.
Behind Lucy, however, the mood wasn't so cheerful. After all, following the Buster Call to reach Dressrosa faster, they hadn't imagined they'd end up in front of so many powerful Marine soldiers.
"What is this? How did we end up here!? What kind of luck is this?!" Vivi exclaimed, stunned.
"This is bad... we should have sailed normally," Nami murmured, stepping back, already aware of the trouble they always found themselves in without meaning to.
"Well, at least Lucy seems happy," Shirahoshi commented with a calm smile.
"Nee... This is bad..." Hachi murmured, while all the animals, Megalo, Laboon, and Karoo, along with the Two Piece crew, were right behind them, most of them trembling in fear.
While Lucy was on the ship, visibly happy, she didn't seem to realize that at that moment, standing in front of all that Marine strength could be something dangerous.
Meanwhile, far off in the sky, the air was being torn apart by the sound of flames. "Well, it looks like they got here before me," Luffy murmured as he flew through the air at high speed, getting closer to them, already sensing the presence of his favorite ship through Haki, along with his sister, his wives, companions, and even his grandfather.
