[Chapter Size: 1900 Words.]
Third Person POV
Sabaody Archipelago, First Half of Grandline.
...
...
On an island west of the archipelago, a man with green hair stood in front of the sea, gazing at a distant red mountain. It was none other than Roronoa Zoro, looking in that direction, deep in thought.
"Damn, how can they get lost like that?" he grumbled, thinking his crew was following him, but they had somehow lost their way without him realizing. Ironically, it was he who had gotten lost.
"Damn, I'm going to have to go back," Zoro commented, having no other choice but to return the way he had come.
Meanwhile, elsewhere, "Amazing, how much does this model cost?" Yamato murmured, looking at men selling fish-motorcycles with Hachi by his side, who seemed a bit lost.
The place was crowded as the man was renting out the fish, they recognized the straw hats, especially Yamato for being Kaido's daughter and having a bounty of 600 million. Some people were wary of Hachi for being a fish-man, but had to respect him, after all, he was part of an important crew.
"Damn, if we could capture him..." one man spoke while keeping his gaze on Hachi, who might even have heard him; he wasn't hiding, after all Luffy had said he would never need to do that again while under his flag and would destroy anyone who messed with him.
"Are you an idiot? He's with Kaido's daughter... And you think we can mess with that group?" another whispered to the first.
"But did you see how much they offered for that mermaid they captured yesterday?" the first man spoke again and Hachi immediately turned surprised towards those men.
"But..." the man was going to continue, but suddenly felt a blade at his throat, catching everyone by surprise, as Hachi had several swords drawn from their sheaths, placing his swords on the necks of 4 men at the same time, appearing in front of the man.
"Nee... Tell me now..." he said threateningly. "What were you saying?" Hachi scared the men as soon as they realized their situation.
"We only said that a mermaid was captured yesterday..." one of the men said, swallowing hard.
"Where is she?" Hachi asked again. While Yamato was about to mount her bike, she noticed the strange situation.
"Any problem, Hachi?" she asked from afar.
But Hachi did not care to answer her, still looking at the man with the same deadly gaze. "Where is she being auctioned?" and he spoke, still holding the sword as if about to kill the man.
"She's being auctioned at one of the most important auctions in the lawless area, the Joker auction!" the man spoke with evident fear.
"I believe I know where that auction is..." Hachi seemed thoughtful.
Yamato approached at this moment. "Any problem?" He was wondering why Hachi's hostility, as he hadn't even answered her.
"Nee... There's a mermaid being auctioned and I need to stop it," Hachi spoke fiercely.
"A mermaid," Yamato murmured, and immediately had a fierce look. "Alright, let's solve this!" she spoke, and the men looked somewhat surprised at that.
"I wouldn't do that! I heard there will be Tenryuubitos at the site. Are you guys crazy?" the man spoke immediately, making Hachi frown.
Meanwhile, Yamato didn't seem too concerned, just thoughtful. "It doesn't matter, let's go." She suddenly spoke and grabbed Hachi by the clothes and threw him on top of her bike.
She jumped a distance in front of the vehicle and Hachi, a bit surprised by this, quickly asked, "Hey, do you know how to ride this?"
Yamato just smiled and said, "No, but let's try." She spoke, and before they could react, she accelerated and sped forward, while Hachi screamed in fright, with her crashing into trees trying to keep the fish under control and leaving the place.
"She didn't even pay me!!!" the man, responsible for renting the bikes, did not fail to shout after Yamato fleeing with the fish-man.
Meanwhile, in the lawless area, Luffy was with Shirahoshi at this moment, glued to his back. They walked from one side to the other, and it was obvious that he was attracting attention as many pointed at them.
"Look at him! He's wearing the straw hat," the people commented and quickly tried to keep their distance.
"It's him in person! Monkey D. Luffy!"
"The pirate who is the son of the world's worst criminal and grandson of the marine hero, Garp! A rookie that not even the admirals alone can stop!"
As people exclaimed, trying to distance themselves, no one wanted to confront a pirate with a bounty of 1,000,000,0000 berries. Luffy continued walking until he found a small bar and wanting to drink something, he headed to the establishment.
"I want to drink something, Luffy-Sama!" Shirahoshi pointed to the place, obviously where Luffy was already going,
"Yes, let's go, let's see what they have to offer," Luffy commented with a smile as he entered the place, which quickly grew gloomy with the presence of this pirate and a mermaid on his back.
Luffy stepped on the floorboards as they creaked with the old wood, and the waiter saw that man and swallowed hard behind the counter, while the air grew tense, with no one able to breathe.
"He's here..." someone murmured...
"Stay quiet! If he hears you, you're dead!" another said to a friend.
"Please... just go away! Nika-Sama, make this man leave without causing death and destruction!" someone else was praying in a corner.
Luffy approached the bar, while the man behind the counter looked pale, Luffy leaned forward and tapped the counter with a finger. "Give me your best rum and an orange juice for her," he said, while the man quickly started making the drinks with trembling hands, afraid of displeasing this powerful pirate.
"Is he alright, Luffy-Sama?" Shirahoshi couldn't help but ask with her gentle eyes to the man who seemed to be having a convulsion, while trembling picking up the bottle.
"He's just nervous, Shira," Luffy said. He didn't care much about it, although he found it quite precipitous to be afraid in this way, after all they think he would kill someone just for not liking his drink or something like that, but Luffy only kills someone when provoked enough for it, not over a glass of drink.
The man brought their drinks and placed them on the counter while cautiously looking at Luffy, even the entire place looked at Luffy expecting him to kill the bartender if he didn't like the drink.
"Hey, relax, I'm not going to kill you just because of your drink," Luffy said, as he tossed some gold coins to the man who quickly picked them up and nodded, but still looked cautious.
Luffy didn't sit down and took the glass drinking calmly. The taste was not the best, but at least it was something he could drink peacefully. Luffy took Shira's juice and she drank it while still clinging to his back swaying her tail, with an expression that seemed to love the orange juice. The place was relatively full, but no one else spoke at this moment while Luffy and his mermaid drank quietly at the bar counter.
Then the door opened and a man looking straight at Luffy's back approached.
"Hey! Is he here after Monkey D. Luffy?!" People gossiped about this man in the bar.
"He can't be serious..." another commented.
Luffy sipped his drink and smiled, feeling through his Haki the person. "Kid, I see you've been following me for a long time," Luffy commented, still with his back to the man.
"..." Kid did not respond to Luffy's comment.
"Is Captain Kid going to face Straw Hat, but his bounty is almost 3 times smaller than that of Captain Kid. Is he insane, I heard he is pretty crazy," another spoke.
"Mugiwara will not let this go easily, he's a billion-bounty pirate and of course he will kill just for provoking him," another man grumbled.
"What do you want, Kid?" Luffy said. "Can't you see I'm with my girl here?" he said, and Shirahoshi seemed to blush at that, placing her hand on her face with a flush.
Kid ignored the comments and looked at Luffy with a fierce gaze. "I know I can't beat him now," he said, his hands clenching. "But remember this, Straw Hat, that humiliation in Jaya will never happen again. Wait for me in the New World. I will defeat you, no matter how strong you are. I will dominate that sea, do you hear me, Straw Hat?" Kid growled, and Luffy appreciated this challenge and began to laugh.
"Hahahaha." Luffy laughed loudly while the bar was silent.
"What are you laughing at?" Kid didn't like that, thinking that Luffy was mocking him.
"Very well, Kid, I'll be waiting for you then. After all, what fun is the sea when you don't have challenges to face?" Luffy spoke seriously. After all, a long time ago, he could have killed Teach, but he kept him alive just so there would be people who could face him in the future. Luffy doesn't want to dominate the seas easily; he wants challenges and fights. Where's the achievement if you don't need to make efforts to reach it?
Everyone was surprised by this, especially Kid. After all, no one expected such behavior from a pirate who was on top of everything on this island, showing that he was looking forward to a future challenge.
"Anyway, let's go," Luffy said as he finished his glass.
"Yes, let's visit other places, Luffy-Sama!" Shirahoshi said excitedly on his back.
Luffy walked past Kid while the man kept his gaze on him, thoughtful about his last words. Luffy didn't care anymore and continued walking, heading out of the bar.
"Now let's go..." Luffy was going to comment but soon noticed that there was a strange change happening on that street at the moment.
All the people who had been circulating the area were now kneeling.
"What's happening, Luffy-Sama?" Shirahoshi looked confused, and Luffy simply glanced with narrow eyes to one side of the street.
At the start of the street, there was a group of people in suits with a man in the middle, one who wasn't wearing a suit but a very peculiar white outfit that Luffy knew very well, after all, he had already killed 2 of those beings.
"How interesting," Luffy couldn't help but murmur then, as people knelt on the ground hoping not to receive the wrath of that Tenryuubito.
"Hm?!" They were surprised by someone simply walking through the place without kneeling.
"Hey, who is he?" A woman spoke in shock, but when she saw the flag on his back, next to the mermaid clinging to him, she swallowed hard.
Luffy walked towards the Tenryuubito and his forces while everyone still knelt, also amazed by Luffy simply walking, which would make anyone there a dead man, but Luffy seemed oblivious to it and everyone was wondering what he was about to do, while the Tenryuubito himself, on top of his slave, didn't even know the danger he was running at that exact moment.
