Capítulo 19: The Rise of Raven

After Viktor fainted, Raven panicked and tried to wake him up, but it was to no avail. He was out cold. She thought to herself, 'Shit! He's out cold. Thankfully everyone else is as well. Well, the first step is to get these damn cuffs off. '

Raven searched the captain's pockets and eventually found the master key to the cuffs. She then proceeded to unlock the cuffs of ProfessorJones, Viktor and herself. She decided that at the very least, she had to kill the captain because of how strong he is. However, before she dealt the finishing blow, she hesitated.

'Why am I hesitating?' Raven thought. 'This is the man that brutally tortured me and all those I care for. I was perfectly fine slicing the matron up and killing that pirate that attacked me.'

It then dawned on her, " Oh my god, I killed someone. I really killed someone. "

She panicked, " What was I supposed to do? He attacked me and I defended myself. There was no avoiding it! Oh my god, will Viktor and Professor Jones think of me as a monster?"

She then pondered it some more, " Actually, Viktor might even congratulate me for it. After all, Viktor isn't exactly the type that cares for things like morals all that much, so he won't really look at me different. As for Professor Jones, he'd only be concerned for my mental state. As long as I don't turn into someone that enjoys killing random people, he should be fine with it."

Raven then pondered, " Hmm, well I'll admit I do have a sense of satisfaction in killing that pirate, but it's more that I'm happy he can't hurt me or anyone else anymore. As for the matron, that was more of me venting my anger towards her. "

Raven then asked, " Do I really have to kill him? He's unconscious and can't hurt anyone right now. This wouldn't be me defending myself, this would be cold-blooded murder. "

Raven's body continued to shake, " Cmon Raven, you can do this. Remember, this is the person who's responsible for all the suffering you and your loved ones experienced. "

Raven then shook with anger, " This basterd tried to rape me, just like my mom. Unforgiveable!!"

She proceeded to cut off his head and slashed at his corpse until he was just a mangled piece of flesh. She then calmed down while panting, " Whew! Ok, this bastard's finally dead." She then looked at her handiwork and immediately threw up.

" Holy shit, that's disgusting, don't tell me I'm gonna have to clean this up? Oh well, I'll worry about it after Viktor wakes up. Speaking of, since Viktor knocked out everyone on the ship except for me, then who's steering?"

Raven proceeded to go to the top deck and as she feared, there was nobody steering the ship. She quickly got to the steering wheel, but she realized she had no idea where she should go. Thankfully, she saw an island off in the distance and she steered the ship towards it.

She didn't see a dock nearby, so she just brought the ship close to the island in shallow water and dropped the anchor. She figured that she needed to at least leave the navigator alive since she had no idea where they were.

Unfortunately, she didn't know who the navigator was, so she decided to shackle the entire crew and when they wake up, she'd question them. However, she realized that they weren't enough shackles for both the prisoners and the crew.

Her first thought was to free the prisoners and use their shackles for the crew, but that could prove disastrous. She didn't know any of the prisoners and instead of being grateful for being rescued, they could turn on her and Viktor instead.

Instead she decided to kill everyone that she recognized that participated in her torture. She wanted revenge and she also figured it was unlikely that any of them were the navigator, as the navigator would need to keep a close watch into where they were going.

Before she did this, she checked the rest of the ship for navigation charts. While she couldn't read them, Viktor did copy books a lot of books on navigation, so he should be able to use this info to read the charts. She eventually found some in what seemed to be the navigators room.

Raven proceeded to kill the recognizable crew, throwing up multiple times in the process. However, she gradually got used to the killing and just turned pale instead of throwing up.

She then realized that thankfully, she now had enough shackles and didn't need to further test her morality by killing people that didn't directly harm her, although they were complicit in her suffering.

Raven then decided to search the ship for treasure and she found piles of berries as well as lots of gold and jewels. She counted the money and it was 10 million berries. Adding in all the other valuables, the captains treasure was worth over 20 million berries!

While she was rummaging around the captain's quarters, she also found a small treasure chest with a lock that matched the other key she found off the captains body. She opened the treasure chest and discovered it was a devil fruit.

Her first thought was to eat it, but she stopped herself, " I might want to ask Viktor first before eating this. After all, who knows what ability this fruit has. If it's a crappy ability, then I've just added another fatal weakness."

"Then again, I'm in a precarious situation. Considering the fact Viktor fainted due to overexertion, it'll probably be awhile before he wakes up. At the very least, everybody else will wake up before him. Even a crappy devil fruit ability would increase my strength and would serve as a form of insurance. "

" Also, just like with Viktor, I feel drawn to this devil fruit, like I'm destined to eat it. You know what? I'm done being the helpless little girl. It worked for Viktor, and it's going to work for me."

Raven proceeded to eat the devil fruit and immediately hurled. " Oh my god, this tastes worse than shit. Do I really have to eat all of this? Sigh, better safe than sorry. Down the hatch."

Raven swallowed the rest of the fruit and gagged for the next 5 minutes. She then tried the devil fruit ability out and it turns out she scored big time. She ate a mythical zoan fruit, the rarest of all.

More specifically, it's the Human-Human Fruit, Model: Witch of Darkness, Raven. It is said that Raven commands darkness itself and is the herald for the end of the world as darkness will consume everything. In other words, she's similar to Raven from Teen Titans.

Raven transformed into her animal form, looking exactly like Raven from Teen Titans, accessories and all. Raven discovered that she had the power to spread and control darkness. She can wrap an object in darkness and then control it however she wants. In other words, telekinesis.

She tried it out for the first time on her clothes and used it to fly. Strangely, the power only works after chanting Azarath Metrion Zinthos, but with practice, Raven felt she could bypass this weakness. It also drains a lot of stamina. She could only fly for 5 minutes before losing all her stamina and the stamina drain increases exponentially when used directly on other lifeforms.

Thankfully, she could still control people indirectly via their clothes, so she had a way to counter any possible rebellious prisoners.She continued to practice this ability until the first crew members woke up.

She then interrogated each of them until she finally determined who the navigator was, a person named Jake. She left the crew members alive for now and proceeded to the prisoners, who were now awake and could here the screams from when Raven was interrogating the crew.

Raven entered the area and said, " Hey guys, I'm Raven, a fellow prisoner on this ship. As you no doubt heard, I was interrogating the crew. I killed the captain and some of the crew I had beef with, but I've tied up the rest."

One of the prisoners who fashioned himself a leader asked, " So, you're the one who's taken out the crew and the new boss of the ship?"

Raven replied, " Well technically, the one who took out the crew was my friend Viktor. He's currently resting as the battle took a lot out of him. "

The leader replied, " So Viktor's the one that knocked all of us out. How the hell did he do that?"

Raven said, " That was his Conquerors Haki. Judging by your guys reaction, you have no idea what that is, do you?"

Everyone shook their heads no.

Raven then said," Well, don't worry about it then. Now, to the matter at hand. I left the cuffs on you guys because I was worried you guys might turn on us, but now I have countermeasures."

She then got serious, " I'm now going to remove your guys cuffs. You're free! You no longer have to suffer. Once Viktor wakes up, he'll take the role of captain of the ship and we can take you guys home, if you still have one that is.

Everyone was stunned and the leader said, " Are you serious? We're actually free?!"

Raven replied, " Yep, but be warned, if you try to betray us, I'll personally send you to the underworld. "

Everyone nodded in understanding and Raven freed all of them of their shackles. She then asked them once again, " I'm going to ask once again? Do you accept Viktor as your captain? If you don't and want to sieze power, now's your chance."

Everyone looked at her like she was crazy and the leader said, " Viktor's our savior. We'd never turn on him. After all, you did say we'd get to go home. You weren't lying, were you?"

Raven replied, " No, that's a promise. But seriously, no one wanta to sieze power for themselves? What a letdown. It seems I was worried for no reason then. If Viktor saw this, he'd totally make fun of me, although he'd still praise me for my caution. "

Then Viktor walked in and said, " Yep, I'm indeed proud of you for your exemplary caution, but yeah, this is excellent teasing material that I simply can't pass up. "


Capítulo 20: The Prisoners

Raven was shocked at seeing Viktor awake so soon and could only stammer." Your awake so soon?" She then ran towards him to give him a hug.

Viktor replied, " Yeah, all the screaming kinda woke me up. "

He then sported a teasing smile, " Yep, it seems little old Raven is becoming a woman, able to do interrogations with such ease."

Viktor then wiped a fake tear from his eye and channeled his inner China Fujiwara. " Now I can say to others: I raised that child."

Raven stopped midrun after this as her joy from seeing Viktor turned into embarrassment and anger for both teasing her and worrying her. She used her new powers and said, " Azarath Metrion Zinthos!"

All Viktor could do was gasp in shock as he was pulled by his clothes towards her into a hug. She told him, " I'm so glad you're OK. While I don't appreciate the teasing, I'll let it go this time. "

Viktor then broke off the hug and said with a sheepish grin on his face, " So, I'm guessing you ate a devil fruit. It tasted absolutely divine, right? Also, just an FYI, you supposedly don't have to eat the entire devil fruit in order to gain its power."

Raven just looked at him in shock, " Are you serious? You're telling me I didn't have to eat the whole thing? But you ate the whole thing, so I thought that was the norm. "

Raven then made gagged, " Oh God, just thinking about that fruit is making me gag. Why the hell didn't you tell me I didn't need to eat the whole thing?"

Viktor tried to calm her down, " Woah, calm down Raven, let me explain. First off, while it's true only a bite is necessary to gain an ability, it's unknown if the abilities potential will be weakened if the fruit isn't completely consumed, so I decided to eat the whole thing. Secondly, I thought you'd ask before eating a devil fruit since it's risky if the ability is unknown. Although in your case, it seems to have worked out well."

Raven's anger subsided and pride took over, " Hmph, indeed my ability is awesome. It's even better than yours. "

Viktor raised an eyebrow, " Wow, that good huh? Well, we'll have to compare abilities later. I want to get a feel for our crew and then figure out what we'll do next. "

Raven nodded in agreement and beckoned over the leader of the prisoners. Vikror asked, " So, you're the leader here, right?"

The leader said, " Sort of? I'm more of the spokesperson than the true leader."

Viktor then said, " OK so tell me about yourself. "

The leader said, " Well,I'm 18 years old and my name is Blitzo, with a silent o. I'm a newbie assassin in the underworld and these 2 are my subordinates, Moxie and Millie, who are the same age as me and married. "

Moxie and Millie both greeted Viktor and Viktor nodded in understanding. He thought, ' OK, so their characters from Helluva Boss's IMP company, but a lot younger than in the show. The mink tribe kid is probably Loona.'

Blitzo then presented his mink kid," And this is Loona, my adopted daughter."

Loona said, " Whatever. I guess I'm grateful for your help. Also, I'm 10 years old."

Viktor then said, " OK? Are you one of the Mink tribe?"

Loona looked at him in surprise, " Wow, I'm surprised you know about us. I had to explain to this idiot here about my tribe."

Blitzo responded by saying, " Awh, Loony, don't say that about me. They don't talk much about the Grand Line, not to mention the new world. I didn't even know the Grand Line was divided into Paradise and the New World.

Loona then sighed, " Well, he's gotta point. So how do you know about us?"

Viktor replied, " Let's just say I've read a lot of books. Now, where exactly are you guys from and do you want me to take you home, or truly join my command?"

Blitzo looked at Millie, Moxie, and Loona and they all nodded in agreement. Blitzo replied, " We're from the Hell Kingdom, a member of the world government. It's actually pretty close to here. And we've unanimously decided to join you. "

Blitzo then turned serious, " However, I want us to be in a partnership. I've had my fill of bosses and want to be independent. Although when we're on your ship, I'm happy to follow you orders."

Loona added, " Tch, of course we'll join you. You literally saved our lives. How could we not want to join you. "

Viktor said, " OK, I get the gist. I gladly accept you guys as partners. I've gotta talk to everybody else, but we'll talk details later."

Their group nodded and proceeded to leave.Viktor sighed, " Alright, how many more do we got?"

Raven replied, " Well, there's 50 prisoners in total, so there are 46 left. "

Viktor replied, " Alright, let's finish this already, I want to know more about your devil fruit ability and, sigh, see if we can do anything about Professor Jones's situation."

Raven nodded solemnly and they accepted the next person. Out of the next 56 people, all but 2 of them were young adult males between the ages of 18-21. They all originally resided in the Hell Kingdom and all agreed to join Viktor's command.

The last 2 people were special. They're both kids around 10 years old and are named Katara and Toph. As their names suggest, they are similar to their namesakes from Avatar: The Last Airbender. Katara is a water bender, while Toph is an earth bender, or the One Piece world's equivalent.

Katara is actually half Fishman, which allowed her to instinctively grasp Fishman Karate. Due to the fact she's only half- fishman, her appearance looks human. It's only when she enters the water that her appearance changes. Even this change isn't that drastic, with her only gaining gills and webbed hands and feet.

Interestingly enough, on her fishman side, she takes after Kung Fu Manatees. Because of this strange bloodline, she is a martial arts prodigy, able to control water skillfully and even able to create high- pressure water that can even affect steel, not to mention the human body.

As for Toph, like her series counterpart, she's blind, but is able to utilize a special type of observation haki she refers to as ground sensing. Even though she can't see, she can sense the vibrations through the ground to sense what's around her even better than the average human can.

Her observation haki can even sense the voice of the earth itself, similar to Roger's Voice of All Things ability. Unlike Roger, Toph can only hear the Earth's voice, but because of this, she can actually control the earth. She calls this ability earthbending.

Unlike Katara, Toph's one of the only people in the world that can earthbend, so there isn't a martial arts practice built around it. Because of her rich family, she never worried about defending herself, so she only used her powers to help sense her surroundings. It wasn't until she decided to run away from home due to how suffocating her parents were that she started to develop her Earth bending abilities.

Unfortunately, before she could do anything more than move the earth to help her travel, she was caught earthbending by some locals. She was branded a demon by the uninformed locals and chased away. Word spread quickly about her powers and she was captured by slave traders that valued her unique power.

Toph is currently trying to create a new martial art revolving around earthbending similar to Fishman Karate. Viktor values Toph's ability even more than Katara's as it represents a new path of strength. Using Toph as a reference, he could also develop airbending and even the breathing styles from Demon Slayer.

After Viktor got through meeting everyone and everyone agreeing to work for him, he went to speak with Raven alone about her ability and how to deal with Crocus.

Although he thought so given Raven's previous display of her power, he was still amazed when she told him her devil fruit was a mythical zoan type: Human Human fruit, Model: Witch of Darkness, Raven. She had the power to spread darkness and control darkness, and telekinesis was the first product of her ability.

This was especially surprising because Raven's given name is Rachel Roth, which is the same as Raven from Teen Titans. Adding onto the fact that the devil fruit called out to her like it did to him, it almost seems like she was fated to get this ability.

Viktor thought, 'Wow, this really seems to an AU version of the One Piece world with all these characters from different fictional universes. Although, technically speaking, all the characters I've meet could've been in the original work, but died young. Overall, I shouldn't blindly assume things will be the same in this world as it is in the manga. Who knows if Luffy will even be born?'

After Viktor finished this thought Raven told him, " About Professor Jones's situation, I think I might have a solution. I've realized another ability of mine is to enter my own mindscape and I think I can also enter the mindscape of others with enough practice."

Viktor was surprised as this ability seemed to be the same one that Raven from Teen Titans used in the episode Nevermore to enter her own mindscape. Since Raven could let others into her mindscape, it isn't out of the realm of possibility for her to enter others mindscape's.

Viktor then asked her, " OK, sounds promising. How do we enter?"

Raven replied," All I have to do is use a mirror as a medium and we can enter through the mirror. However, this is risky as anyone can enter my mind through this mirror. If the mirror breaks while we're in there, we could be trapped in there forever."

After Viktor and Raven discussed it some more, they decided to make some preparations before entering. Since their bodies would be in Raven's mindscape, if someone came looking for them, they might think they disappeared into thin air, which would be problematic to say the least. They then set off to discuss with everyone their plans.
