[Sabaody Archipelago, Grove 1]
"…The Marineford is in turmoil right now. In this period of time, due to the Whitebeard's final words prior to his death, the world has been experiencing a sudden rise in the number of pirates."
Disco, the manager of the Human Auction Shop, muttered to himself.
And unnoticed by him, a group of people that surrounded one obese man in a protective fashion, who was wearing a transparent helmet and sitting on top of a sickly-looking man, made their way toward the Human Auction Shop.
"However, what I fear the most… is that damn Grimheart. What if that crazy b****** destroys the whole Sabaody just like he did with Enies Lobby two days ago—S-Saint Charlos?!!!"
Upon the group stopped in front of the entrance of the Human Auction Shop, the obese man with a transparent helmet, Charlos, frowned in displeasure.
"Ehh... why are you blocking my way, peasant?" Charlos stated as the snot on his nose dangled.
Disco became pale as he immediately bowed low to the ground, "I-I apologize for my insolence!! As compensation, I will present you a new batch of beautiful women slaves free of charge!"
"Mufufufungh!!!" Charlos laughed hideously upon hearing the words, "I will let you go just this once, mufungh!! Hurry up and bring me those slaves!!"
As Charlos and his bodyguards entered the shop, Disco couldn't help but gulp in fear as he thought,
'Why did you show up here right now—after the war?! Are you out of your mind, you fatso?!!'

[Grove 24]
"The attacks abruptly ceased today." Nojiko muttered in confusion as she gazed around the restaurant that the Twin Cats pirates were dwelling within, "What's going on?"
The scenery within the restaurant was quite disturbing. The surrounding was full of bloody corpses; the Twin Cats pirates had to fend off the endless wave of bounty hunters and pirates.
Nojiko was very close to accepting Law's deal, until the seemingly endless wave ended abruptly.
"C-captain, look at this!" One crew member said in nervousness as she brought up the most recent newspaper to Nojiko, "It's about your friend, Rowan!"
The moment Nojiko shifted her eyes to the title page of the newspaper, she figured it out immediately.
'The complete decimation of Enies... Lobby? What?!' Nojiko's jaw dropped in shock, 'Grimheart Rowan, the One Man Buster Call... what have you done, Rowan?!!!!'
"Now, almost everyone who tried to hunt us, after reading news, seemed to have retreated immediately. Do you know why?" Spadina whispered, "The reason why Rowan destroyed Enies Lobby in the first place, was because the Cipher Pol agents were chasing after his crew."
Regardless of the shocking news, Nojiko sighed in relief as she slouched back on the chair that she was sitting by,
"That's great to hear at least. We don't have to stay awake 24/7 now, do we?"
"Captain," Spadina shook her head, "I said almost everyone."
*Click*
The sound of a gun being loaded was heard, alerting Nojiko and the rest of her crew.
"As long as this is the last."
At the next moment, Nojiko transformed her right hand into cat paw, before pointing it toward the wall where the clicking sound was heard,
"Arise."
Then, the bloody corpses within the restaurant were encased by the deep green hue, before they rose at once and began to walk toward the wall lifelessly.
"*Bleughh*"
"Oh, for f***'s sake, Sofie," Nojiko groaned, "Stop vomiting!!"

"...Is that true?" One marine officer asked in a shaky tone, as if unable to believe what he just heard.
"Yes, even though it may sound untrue, it's happening right now!!!" The voice within Den Den Mushi shouted in disbelief, "All the noteworthy rookies, termed as the Supernovas, are here!!!"
"7 super rookies... consisting of,
'Surgeon of Death' Trafalgar Law, 200,000,000 Beli.
'Roar of the Sea' Scratchmen Apoo, 198,000,000 Beli.
Capone 'Gang' Bege, 138,000,000 Beli.
'Magician' Basil Hawkins, 249,000,000 Beli.
'Red Flag' X Drake, 222,000,000 Beli.
'Big Eater' Jewelry Bonney, 140,000,000 Beli.
And finally,
'Epitome of Greed' Davy Jeanne, 377,000,000 Beli." The marine officer listed the profiles in a cold sweat, "Even Sentomaru-san isn't here, due to his injuries from the war! How are we supposed to fend them off!"
"Listen. That's not what you should be focusing on right now." The voice in Den Den Mushi stated, "Saint Charlos in Grove 1 right now."
"WHAT?!!!"
"If something were to happen to him... we're screwed."
The marine officer felt like crying right now. Nonetheless, he spoke up once more,
"One... more thing. Where are those Grimheart pirates again?"
"Water Seven."
"Alright, alright. At least... at least they won't be here for some time."

"Captain, what now?" A bear-like mink, Bepo, said nervously, "It turned out that the Twin Cats pirates don't need our help anymore. How else will we make a connection with the Grimheart pirates?"
Law placed a hand on his chin, "...Him destroying the whole Enies Lobby out of a blue... wasn't in my plan. What an eccentric man.
But don't worry, Bepo. Twin Cats still need our help."
"Huh?" Bepo tilted his head questioningly.
"In Grove 22, there is one particular pirate crew who has made through the 7th path of the Paradise. Their captain is known for extreme violence and greed: Davy Jeanne." Law grinned, "A woman full of ego. Someone like her won't bother with the name value of 'Grimheart' Rowan, but will think first in such a way: how do I take everything that Grimheart has for myself?"
"Uh..." Bepo scratched his head, "How?"
"Don't expect too much intelligence from her. She is barbaric, and overall, very bold. For someone of her personality, I can only think of one solution…"

[Grove 22]
"Capture the captain of the Twin Cats pirates, Nojiko."
A beautiful woman with blood-red hair and sharp green-coloured eyes, Davy Jeanne, said as she raised her pistol up.
*BANG*
The person who was kneeling in front of her collapsed as the bullet drove its way into his skull.
"And now, kyahaha!!! Every slaves in this human shop is mine!!" Jeanne said with greedy smile on her face, before flipping her pistol back into her holster,
"Scythe, move everything here to my ship."
"Roger that, Jeanny~!" The tall man with white hair, Scythe, replied casually before slapping his hand into one of the crew member, "You heard that, right? I'll give you, hm… 7 minutes! Because 7 is lucky!"
"B-but Scythe, our ship isn't big enough to place all that—"
"Then get a freaking new ship or something!!!" Scythe instantly responded with a growl as he slammed his fist onto the crew member's nose, causing the latter's face to become disfigured instantly.
*BOOM*
As the crew member of their own was brutally killed in a mere second, the rest of the crew shivered in fear as they hastened the process.
"So…. Nojiko you said? That weak girl?" Scythe, as he crossed his arms, asked Jeanne, who was inspecting an exquisite necklace with wonder.
"Yess, get that girl. So what if Grimheart is strong? If we cut one of two of her limbs, he will go quiet and be obedient, just like any other we've come across in the past."
"You… are so evil." Scythe grinned in a creepy manner as he licked his lips, "And I love that part of you."
Looking to the side, Scythe called one gigantic man with bald head and obese figure reaching to a height of 5m, who was standing stoically, "Yo, Gian."
"…What." The man answered extremely slowly.
"It's time for a feast."
Gian'a eyes widened before he began to drool, "More… food…?"

[Grove 19]
"*Huff* *Huff*… You are insane, Rowan."
In midst of the 19th grove, Nami was seen to be kneeling with her hands on the ground, in exhaustion,
"One whole day!!! For one whole day, you ran non-stop, and you are still good to go! How?!!"
Rowan smirked, "I'm born different. Anyway, here." Rowan handed back Nojiko's Vivre Card to Nami, who placed it on the palm of her hand to see which direction it pointed to.
"Let's go—ah come on, you are that tired?" Rowan chuckled as he saw Nami holding her arms out toward him.
"Carry me, Rowan. I can't walk."
"You didn't walk for a whole day though—"
Rowan sweatdropped as Nami gazed at him with puppy-eyes,
"—alright."
Lifting Nami up by his shoulder like a sac, Rowan jumped up high once again, travelling in a direction where Nojiko's Vivre Card pointed to.
'And geez, why is there so many people?'
Rowan thought as he briefly gazed back at their previous position, where many bounty hunters and pirates were hiding behind the buildings that were laid out, cowering in fear.
"F***… why is he here?!"
"C-captain! Yes, I'm in the Grove 19 just like you instructed! Now, that's not the problem! I freaking sighted Grimheart out of all—we have to get out of here RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!!"
"C-calling to the Grove 66, do you copy? Do you copy? Reporting to all marines, Grimheart Rowan has made his appearance in the Grove 19! Run away immediately before he does something crazy!!!"
The whole Grove 19 fell into chaos, before bounty hunters, pirates, and some disguised marines, all began to sprint away to the opposite direction from Rowan and Nami.

"We are done for." The marine officer collapsed on his chair with hollow eyes, "What to do now?"
"Rest assured. Haa, haa… calm down. Let's calm down and think." Another officer said as he took deep breath in, "Grimheart is travelling away from the Grove 1. His goal has to be the Twin Cats pirates in the Grove 24. Secretly allocate the Marine troops in Grove 1, and protect Saint Charlos from the potential harm."
"Hey, are you sure that the report is correct?"
The voice from Den Den Mushi said in inquiry, "The informant just told us that the Grimheart pirates are still in Water Seven!!"
""What?!""
The first marine officer asked in realization, "Are you saying that Grimheart is here alone?!"
"Hmm… that makes sense." The second officer nodded, "After all, only Grimheart and Cat Burglar were sighted on the scene."
"…But that changes nothing."
"True."
"Yes," The voice in Den Den Mushi agreed, "Don't touch him or the Twin Cats pirates. Focus on protecting the Celestial Dragon."

[Grove 17]
"What does it say, captain?" One pirate asked to his captain, Basil Hawkins the 'Magician.'
"According to these cards… Sabaody Archipelago will be met with a tide unlike any other. There is two way for us to survive: to go along with the flow, or simply escape before it crashes."
Hawkins, in stoic expression, stated with certainty in his tone, "However… I am not sure of who is the tide here.
'Grimheart' Rowan… 'Epitome of Greed' Jeanne… or 'Blackbeard' Teach. Which one shall it be?"
Gulping, one crew member asked fearfully, "If so, what should we do?"
Hawkins, gazing at that crew member, stated an obvious answer, "We run. Right now."

[Jinren]
"We made it!!!" Luffy shouted with his arms wide open, while the other four members of his crew lied down on the deck, completely wasted.
"Talk about… determination." Sanji said weakly as he lit up the cigarette.
"Grand Line… surely is different." Borodo muttered with half-lidded eyes.
"Guys,"
"We finally made it, thanks to our mighty captain Luffy!!!" Bartolomeo, although exhausted, shouted in joy.
"Guys!!"
"Shishishi, this calls for a party!!" Luffy pumped his fist up.
"Guys, look at our surrounding!!!" Zoro shouted in urgency as he stood up from his spot and unsheathed his swords, "We are surrounded!!!"
"…S***." Sanji cursed as he saw the mysterious people with white cloak and mask on them, Cipher Pol Aigis Zero, standing on the deck of their ship.
"Monkey D. Luffy." The man in a mask stated in monotone, "Capture him alive. As for the rest…
kill them."
