Chapter 20: CHAPTER-21: ANOTHER MEMBER
Black Pearl was now rushing down the canal towards Grand Line first half 'Paradise'..
"Captain! What's that? Is it a mountain?"
"Ahhh! We're going to hit it.."
Bepo: " No way! Are we going to die like this?"
Sabo:" This isn't in our plan...ahh!"
Ian: "You guys! Shut up for a moment. It's just an Island whale."
Augur: " Hmph..Idiots! Can't you see it clearly"
Sabo, Law & Bepo: " We can't see it clearly...we don't have eagle eyes like you..Augur bastard!!"
Laffitte: "Its completely blocking the way..What shall we do Captain?"
Ian:"Hehe..don't worry! Let me try.."
Then, Ian walked at the tip of the deck and released his 'Conqueror Haki's Aura' making the surrounding area become instantly heavy except their ship.
Suddenly, the island whale felt a dangerous aura aimed towards him which made him shivered. Then, it gave a loud cry which almost tore the eardrum and finally sink back to the sea.
"Wow...Captain! So cool!" x3
Augur: " Its terrible but it really is cool"
Laffitte: "Huh,huh..as expected from captain"
Robin: "Ufufu..its really strong" then, a sudden glimmer flash in her eyes watching the back of Ian.
The crew members have already known the relationship between Albedo and Ian and that their captain is a womanizer. They have already expected many women surrounding their captain in the future. And they don't care about it as they are only interested in the adventure with their captain and achieving their goals.
Soon, they landed on the sea and saw a lighthouse on the left side ot the Twin Cape.
Ian: " Ok..sail towards that lighthouse, I want to meet someone."
"ok.."
They reached the lighthouse and saw an old man walking towards them.
Ian: "Well..Its really old man Crocus, the former doctor of the Pirate King Roger..nice to meet you, I'm Ian"
Sabo, Law& Bepo:"what!! That old man is a crew of the Pirate King?
Well, that was unexpected"
Crocus: "Hoo..finally you decide to come here, I have always wanted to see the famous pirate throughout the three seas. And, it seems like your rumours were true, really a strong kid."
Ian: "Hehe..you are flattering me, I also wanted to see the member of the Pirate King"
Sabo: "Well, old man what's with that island whale's scars?"
Crocus:"Well, its a long story, long time ago...."
Crocus told Ian's crew about the island whale Laboon. Its the same as the one in the original, he came from West sea with Rumbar Pirate and was left here waiting for their return. And his scars were caused by hitting on the red wall....
Then, Ian turned towards Laboon hiding under the sea although it doesn't look like it because of its huge size, walked near the cliff and release his strong aura again scaring Laboon to death, then Ian threatened him,
"Listen you dumb whale. One of your crew is still alive on the sea, so stop hitting your head on the wall cause it will not break. And, if you ever..ever hit the wall again, hehe...then I will personally come here and slice you in half. Do you understand?"
'Devil' thats what Laboon thought about Ian in his mind. He is an intelligent whale and so he could understand what Ian was saying and that he was really serious. So, Laboon only gave a low cry and promised never to touch the wall again. Or he was sure that Ian will surely slice him.
Then, Ian talked with Crocus for some time and finally decided to leave.
Crocus: "Are you sure, that you don't need a log pose? This sea is completely different you know."
Ian: "Hehe..no need, some kid might need it in the future. Ok, see you old man..we are leaving."
Crocus: "Well, I'm looking forward to the troubles you will cause."
"Of course..you will hear it soon..hehe.
Oh! I completely forgot something."
Then, Ian stood at the top of the deck, turned towards the huge red mountain unsheathed the 'God-Eater' and swing it twice.
*swosh* *boom*
Two black sword energy flew out from the sword and hit on the huge wall making two huge long hollow blade crossing marks which looks like 'X' on the Wall.
"Hehe..lets go! I have already left a signature of my arrival to be remembered by others."
Watching the shadow of Ian's departure, Crocus sighed and look at the 'X' mark on the wall and smiled.
"Haha..this kid. It seems like Paradise is going to be chaotic soon."
After leaving Twin Cape, instead of going to Cactus Island, Ian decided to go to Foolshout Island to pick up their new member.
Albedo has already finished training Reiju for today, and got out from the room, then came towards Ian.
Albedo: "Ian-sama, who is the new person that we are going to pick up?"
Ian: "Well, its a girl called Koala. She should be about 12 years now. She was a former slave and was taken by Fisher Tiger. So, she bacame the first human ever to join Sun Pirates. They treated her like a family. But, when they visited her hometown, the people decided to contact the navy to attack the Sun Pirate and that's the battle where Fisher Tiger died because he refused to transfuse human blood and it was happened last year."
After a few days, Ian's group reached Foolshout village which caused an uproar in the island. They searched her for the whole day and finally at the back hill far from the city, they found the person they were looking for.
She was a skinny girl with orange hair standing alone silently looking towards the ocean. She looked sad, she often visited the hill to look towards the ocean remembering the time she spent with the sun pirates.
Looking at the sad girl, Ian's group watched her feeling pity for her.
Then, Albedo came forward and said lightly,
"Little girl, what are you doing here? Where's your family?Its dangerous here to stay alone"
Koala:" Well, thank you for the advice but my families were all dead. They are no more in this world."
Albedo:" Oh, I'm sorry to hear about that."
Koala shook her head: "Its okay, you don't need to worry about it. Well, Miss..what are you doing here?" Then, she looked around the group and her round eyes finally landed on Ian and looked at him
Seeing the curious eyes, Ian came forward and said: " My name is Lucifer.D. Ian, a pirate. What's your name girl?"
Koala: "My name is Koala"
Ian: "Well, Koala..Do you want to want to join our pirate group?"
Koala: " Well? What do you know about me?"
Ian: "Hehe, don't look at me with those eyes. In fact, I have learned some information about you and I know you have great potentials and I can help you realise those potentials. Even though I know you hate people, I still want you to be one of our companion. So, what do you say Koala? Want to join us on ruling the sea and change the current system ?"
Koala: "Even though I hate others, I don't hate you as I can see that you don't have bad intention towards me."
Ian: "Well..I didn't expect to be seen through..hehe. So whats your decision, Koala?"
Koala: "Alright..but my goal is to get rid of the current slavery and heavenly tributes."
Ian: "Ho..What a great goal you have. But I like it, then Koala, welcome to the God Hunter Pirate and I will be your Captain"
Albedo: " Koala-chan, I'm Albedo. You can call me Onee-chan."
Robin: "Koala-chan, nice to meet you I'm Robin."
Sabo: "Well..hello Koala-san, I'm the vice captain, Sabo. Welcome to the group."
"Laffitte.."
"Augur.."
"Law.."
"I'm Bepo."
"Eh! the bear can talk!"
"I'm sorry"....." hahahaha..ok guys lets go back"
Koala first went back and took some cloths and went to the ship along with the others.
Then, the God Hunter pirates left Foolshout island and sailed towards the next island.
.....
Marine G-2 base, Grand Line..
Currently, Vice Admiral Dalmatian is stationed as the head commander.
*blurublurubluru...blurublurubluu*
*catcha*
"Dalmatian speaking"
"Vice Admiral Dalmantian, the God Hunter Pirates have entered Grand Line and was last seen on 'Foolshout Village'.."
"What! Is the report correct?"
"Its true..one of the marine's scout has also reported to have seen them in the sea."
"Ok..I understand."
*gatcha*
Dalmantian: " So you have finally arrived in 'Grand Line'..hmph lets see how you can do in this Sea. "
*knock* *knock*
"come in"
*open*
Dalmantian: "What happened?"
Navy: "Reporting, its Rear Admiral Gion. She has arrived outside the base, requesting permission to enter!"
Dalmantian: "Well..let her in, lets go and welcomed her...Vice Admiral Tsuru has already informed me earlier. Who knows what's she doing here in Grand Line..guess its something personel. Lets go "
Navy: "ah!..Yes, this way."
....
Somewhere in Grand Line,
On the deck of black pearl, Ian was doing his regular exercise..
All the other members were inside the ship,
Sabo, Law, Bepo and Augur should be in the training room.
Albedo and Koala should be in the kitchen.
'Koala has completely absorbed in the crew and became more familiar with each other. But, she is usually very close with Albedo particularly like they were sisters.'
Nico Robin is also acting strange, looks at Ian with strange eyes and sometimes showed sweet smile
Now, She should be in the library.
While Ian was resting on the floor, a huge shadow is slowly immersing from under the sea becoming much bigger..
Ian: "heh..another one! who is so brave to show in front of my ship"
Soon, the sea splashed and a huge sea king monster emerges from the sea. Since, they were sailing near the calm belt, it had attracted lots of sea kings which were constantly killed and used as Albedo's cooking test subject.
The huge sea king was the largest that Ian group had met so far. It had multiple heads, about 7-8 heads and a big long neck. It looked like a snake or something.
Ian: "Ho...its quite huge, I think it should be Top Sea King level. And its quite beautiful."
*splash* *splash*
"gueeeaaaahhhh..."
Hearing the roar, all the other members came out and watch the monster fighting with Ian.
Sabo:" Wow..its different from before and its quite huge.."
"oohh..its creepy.."
Then, Ian took his sword , swung it towards it and cut two of its head but a strange thing happened. The cut head instantly grew back.
"Regeneration!..Devil fruit? No, if its devil fruit then it might not be able to swim...
Wait! regeneration...multiple heads, snake like body...top sea king class...Is it a Hydra!?"
"Hehe...interesting! If its the Sea King Hydra, then looks like I have to beat him up..its too precious to kill it."
Then, Ian began to use his fist and start fighting.
After a while, it was completely bullied to a pulp.
Seeing the beatened Sea king, the crew felt pity for him...'Hmm poor thing, you could have scared several pirates but you met a madman who loves fighting.'
Ian: " Hey..next time don't attack without knowing the enemies strength. You are lucky today that you meet me"
After beating the sea king for a little more, black pearl soon left. But who would have known, a huge shadow was slowly following them far away.
Few days later, Ian and his crew could see an island with numerous drum-like mountains...
There next island seems to be the hometown of Chooper, 'Sakura Island' also known as 'Drum Island'
