Chapitre 155: Chapter 155: Sebas The Mediator
With a fluttering of eyes, Luffy, the Captain of the straw hat pirates, awoke from his slumber; unlike his happy-go-lucky self, he was frowning as he stared at the ceiling while lying on the top bunk. After some time, he heard a few grunts, along with two familiar voices, as they exited from their beds and stood up.
"Ugh, that monkey gave me one hell of a beating; my head still hurts." Muttered Sanji with a frown as he stood up while grabbing his head, only to notice his head was wrapped in bandages.
"Tch, he may have used his nails, but these look awfully familiar to sword marks." Said Zoro with a click of his tongue as he moved his bandages out of the way, eyeing five shallow cut marks on his chest, which had already stopped bleeding.
"Luffy, what about you? You okay?" Added Zoro as he grabbed his swords from beside his bed and glanced up at Luffy, still wordlessly lying on the top bunk above Usopp.
"Yeah, I'm fine; what about everyone else?" Replied Luffy with a shake of his head while lightly smiling, his usual self slowly returning as he got up from his bed and hopped to the ground.
"We're good, given the bandages on us; Chopper must've patched us up-" Stated Sanji as he ignored the men and went straight for Robin and Nami, who were both lying in the same bed in the back, only to freeze when he spotted Chopper to his left.
"Hmph, what is it, curly brows? Is there something wrong with Chopper?" Asked Zoro as he and Luffy stepped forward, standing beside Sanji while the three gazed at a Chopper, who was lying unconsciously on the bottom bunk bed.
"No, Chopper is fine, moss head; it's just if he's unconscious, how did he tend to us?" Remarked Sanji with a frown, his words prompting Zoro to frown as he unsheathed his sword and eyed the door, while Luffy just tilted his head in confusion.
"Hmm, maybe he did it while sleeping?" Said Luffy with a thoughtful expression while tapping his chin, though both Sanji and Zoro ignored him as the two walked right past him before busting right through the door with their backs beside each other.
"Hmm, the monkey and Freyja-san are gone, and there doesn't seem to be anyone else." Muttered Sanji with a slight frown as he furrowed his brows while intently looking around, only to stare at the ship to his left.
However, just before Sanji could say anything, an older gentleman floated from seemingly nowhere as he landed before the two men, prompting them to aggressively eye him while in a fighting stance.

Landing before the two young men known as Sanji and Zoro, I cleared my throat and spoke to them in a friendly manner since they weren't enemies; if they were, they'd already be dead.
"Hoho, you don't need to worry about those two troublemakers; Captain and Freyja have left for Jaya Island, and the only people left are Grand and I. Speaking of that, allow me to introduce myself properly; after all, I'm not like my Captain; I've got manners. I'm Sebas Visage, second mate of the Frenzy pirates. It's a pleasure to make your acquaintance, Sanji Vinsmoke, Rornoroa Zoro, and Monkey D. Luffy." Stated Sebas softly with a slight chuckle as he stood a few feet before the two with luffy in the back, prompting them all to frown at the realization of his affiliations, though Sanji was the only one who attacked.
With the mention of Vinsmoke, Sanji lunged for me and leaped into the air as he aimed to kick me right through his ship; though I had a feeling this would happen, after all, I'd read his mind, and I know just how much he hates his family name. Raising my hand, I erected a psionic barrier, separating the two of us as his leg slammed against it, though the person I was dealing with was someone much weaker than a Vice-admiral, let alone Captain, so he came to an immediate halt.
"How do you know that name!?" Exclaimed Sanji angrily as he eyed Sebas while pushing as hard as possible, though he couldn't so much as budge the psionic barrier.
"It's thanks to my Devil fruit, young man; though you mustn't get so angry in a battle, it'll cloud your judgment." Replied Sebas lightly as he flicked his finger, causing the psionic barrier to push back Sanji, who did a few backflips before landing beside Zoro.
"Seeing as you don't like that name being uttered, I shall only call you by your preferred names; I hope that is fine with you, Sanji?" Added Sebas with a raised eyebrow as he lowered his arm and fixed his attire before approaching Sanji, who was still visibly angry, though he calmed himself.
"Tch, don't ever mention that name before me again." Remarked Sanji as he spat on the deck before pulling out a cigarette, while Zoro, after a few moments, sheathed his swords though he was still wary.
"Hmm, what do you want, old man?" Asked Luffy with a frown as he passed Sanji and Zoro before approaching Sebas, who simply chuckled.
"Hoho, nothing much; I was just interested in learning more about the pirates that seemed to behave in a way that was not very pirate-like." Said Sebas with a chuckle, causing Luffy to nod before tilting his head in confusion.
"Not pirate-like?" Said Luffy in confusion, only for Sebas to pat his shoulders.
"Yes, most pirates don't save a Kingdom from a tyrant's rule such as Crocodile; I should know; I've raided two kingdoms already. So a group like yours is interesting, to say the least." Replied Sebas with a nod before lifting his head and glancing at the door, only to spot everyone else exiting the room one by one while either grabbing their head or arm.
"Ugh, what happened? All I remember is a flash of blue and darkness." Asked Nami with a headache while parts of her body were wrapped in bandages as she and Usopp leaned against each other for support.
"I-I think it was that, Chaos Kong; the last thing I saw was Luffy, Zoro, Sanji, and Chopper get defeated before I fainted." Said Usopp, looking much worse than Nami with his broken nose while his bandages were covered in dried blood.
"Ouch; he tossed me like a rag doll." Remarked Chopper within the arms of Robin as she rubbed her neck, which had a red imprint of Diddy's hand.
"Haa, we're lucky to be alive after facing Chaos Kong." Stated Robin with a slight frown, still finding it somewhat hard to breathe.
"Hoho, I apologize about that; Captain is quite ferocious in battle, though yes, it's very rare when he doesn't kill a single soul; you must be one lucky group." Stated Sebas loudly, his words causing everyone to look at him, only for Robin to drop Chopper and quickly fold her arms while Nami nearly fainted.
"S-Sebas Visage!?" Exclaimed Nami with widened eyes as she hid behind Usopp while Robin swiftly immobilized him with her arms.
"Hoho, yes, that's me, the one and only. Though, if you could, Mrs. Robin, I don't wish to start a fight, I'm much more approachable than Captain." Stated Sebas with a soft chuckle before glancing at Robin, whose eyes suddenly took on a lifeless look as she dropped her arms, causing the numerous arms that sprouted from her body to disappear.
"W-What the?" Muttered Robin in pure confusion as she regained control of her body, only to look at Sebas with utter fear, something she didn't even do when confronted by Diddy.
"Robin-san, did that old man do anything weird to you?" Asked Sanji in concern as he practically kicked Chopper out of the way and grabbed Robin's hand, causing her to take a deep breath and shake her head.
"U-Um, so you're not here to finish your Captain's job and kill us?" Asked Nami fearfully from behind Usopp, who was too afraid to move when Sebas looked in their direction.
"No, not at all; in fact, I was the one who had Grand tend to your wounds. However, his skills can't compare to Mr. Chopper's over here, such a great wealth of medical knowledge; I must say you're one spectacular doctor." Stated Sebas with a shake of his head as he pointed to his ship, right at Grand, who happened to wave at them before glancing at Chopper.
"Ahh, chucks, you didn't need to say that; you really think so?" Said Chopper with a bashful yet happy smile as he did a weird dance while looking at Sebas, who nodded.
"So, Mr. Visage, since you don't wish to harm us, what do you want from us?" Asked Robin solemnly as she eyed Sebas, who lightly patted his chest
"Nothing, just curious, that's all. I hope you youngins don't mind satisfying an old man's curiosity; I've got plenty of gold as an offering." Remarked Sebas, only for Nami to be standing right before him at the mention of gold.
"How much gold are we talking about, Sebas?" Asked Nami eagerly as her eyes turned into Beri signs while Sebas chuckled, knowing her great love for wealth.
"I don't know the exact amount, but I'd estimate a few hundred million Beri." Replied Sebas, prompting Nami to grab Sebas by the hand as she led him into the kitchen.
"Haha, right this way, Sebas, allow me to satisfy your curiosity and then some." Declared Nami with Beri signs for eyes as she and Sebas entered the kitchen while everyone watched her before shrugging their shoulders and forgetting about it.
