Hello, ladies and gentlemen hopefully still following me! I deeply apologize about the delay, I was busy plotting out the story/I was caught up with school. But finally, here it is, the next chapter of World War M!


*Deus Ex Machina Zwei, Over Donquixote Castle.*

"Well, Dolflamingo, welcome to your new life!" The Major said showing Doflamingo the control room of his ship surrounded by computer monitors, control tables, and people, assuming The Major's soldiers, working every button and monitor. "What is this place, Major?" Doflamingo asked.

"This, Mr. Donquixote, is where you will be for the remainder of our little war." The Major answered. Then, all of a sudden, every person working the ship stood up from their seat. "HEIL, MAJOR!" They all said while facing him and erecting their right arm towards him. Doflamingo was impressed by the respect these men had for this little fatso before them and grinned a bit. "Heh, heh, at ease everyone, I believe there is work to do. So make sure that all of you do your best and strive for this magnum opus of destruction!" The Major announced. "YES MAJOR!" The troops responded with, sitting down at their desks working their damned hardest.

After they sat down, Doflamingo snapped back and looked at The Major confused. "Wait, you mean this is where Ilive now?!" Doflamingo questioned. "Of course, If you are wondering about where your room is, it is down that corridor there, fourth room to the left." The Major said, pointing down the hallway to the left of the exit they came from. "Tch, well aren't you the god of hospitality?" Doflamingo remarked. "Oh, I assure you, you won't be disappointed." The Major assured with a slight eager smirk and a straight back. Doflamingo's curiosity got the better of him and went down the long corridor counting the number of doors he passed.

Back with Luffy and Edward.

Luffy and Edward outran Trebol and made it to the gardens in the back of Doflamingo's palace. "Sheesh, are you sure you know where you're going, Ed?!" Luffy asked as he ran behind Ed, getting a bit impatient. "Of course I do, we're almost there!" Edward assured Luffy, but despite that, Luffy puckered his lips in annoyance.

"Look, there he is!" Edward yelled as he and Luffy both looked in front of them to lock eyes with their means of escape. "Hey, Al, get us out of here!" Edward commanded. 'Al' then expelled some black light from thin air which enveloped both Luffy and Ed.

"Hey, what the he-?!" But before he could finish, Luffy and Ed fell deeper in the blackness which, upon, closer inspection had a variety of eyes plastered on it. "Ahahahahah!" Luffy screamed as he kept falling. "Calm down." Ed said as he calmly 'sat' in the air. "There's nothing to worry about, I've been through this before. We're okay." Ed assured Luffy, while trying to look like he's done this a million times.

It was about five more minutes until they finally stopped falling and ended up...somewhere.

When Luffy opened his eyes, he looked up and noticed a tall man wearing a red coat and looking down to him with his piercing red eyes and a sharp-toothed grin. Luffy tried to get up, but he immediately fell back down due to the injury on the back off his head when he bumped it on the floor.

"Ow!" Luffy said while he scratched his head with his eyes closed. "Luffy?!" Luffy then shot his eyes up and gave the biggest grin he could give as he saw eight familiar faces before him. "Guys!" Luffy yelled as he jumped up and hugged his faithful crew, everyone joining in the hug and smiling in relief that they're all reunited. "Guys, I'm so glad to see you! Wait, how did you guys get here?" Luffy wondered.

"Well, I guess the same as you." Sanji said, still enveloped by Luffy. "Except I was escorted by a beautiful, red-stripped angel from above!" Sanji said with hearts in his eyes and his hands clutched together. "Tch, Idiot Cook." Zoro said, annoyed. "What the hell did you just say, Moss Head?! At least I wasn't brought here by some weird tattoo kid!" Sanji yelled. "SILENCE!" Came an anonymous voice. "It matters not how you all came here, what does matter is why you're here." Everyone turned toward the source of the voice and found that it was a woman sitting in front of a desk, smoking a cigar and looking at them with a glare the could make a sea-king keel. "Who're you?" Luffy asked.

"I am Sir Integra Fairbrook Wingates Hellsing, the head of the Hellsing Organization, and I require your services!" She responded loudly.

At the Same Time Back on the Deus Zwei.

It took a solid ten minutes for Doflamingo to walk to the third door and to almost get to the fourth. "Geez, how the hell does anyone else get around in this place so damn fast?! These soldiers must be pretty damn motivated to obey him in order to go through all this for days, months even!" Doflamingo wondered out loud until he arrived in front of his destination. "Well, I guess I'll humor him and see what he has for m-"

When Doflamingo entered the room, it was full of steam, completely blocking his vision, he was frozen stiff, and mouth agape. "DAMN IT, CLOSE THE DOOR, DO YOU WANT US TO FREEZE TO DEATH?!" Someone yelled at Doflamingo, and as if by instinct, Doflamingo closed the door.

"Wait, WHAT'RE YOU DOING IN MY ROOM?!" Doflamingo questioned. "Your room, this is the bathing room." The voice explained. "Bathing room?" Doflamingo asked. "Yes, where we all bathe." a different voice explained. "Wait, we?" Doflamingo asked, still in shock. "Yes, now how about we all relax and soak in the hot springs?" A third voice inquired. "Wait, what? Doflamingo asked, while he was starting to sweat from all the steam and the stress of talking to people he couldn't even see.

He then smiled a little. "Alright then, I'll humor you too." Doflamingo exclaimed as he started to take off his jacket, hesitantly as he was about to share a bath with his still unidentified companions, his skin feeling hotter as the familiar feathery feel was removed from his torso. Next came his shoes that he easily took off without using his hands.

Then, he took off his shirt which revealed his very tone stomach due to all his years on the battlefield. Next came his belt along with his pants which already unearthed his family jewels due to his lack of underwear. Finally, he took off his signature sunglasses and left it along with his clothes in a folded pile on a table he conveniently found next to him.

His next challenge was finding the actual spring which was very hard due to all the steam in his way. "Hey, mind giving me some help here?!" Doflamingo asked. "*Groan* just follow this light." The first voice from before said and before he knew it, he looked to his right and found a very bright, almost colorful light along with what he saw was a shadow of a sign, with very faint scripture, obscuring some of the light.

It was almost 4 minutes before Doflamingo found the stairway and rail to the spring. He slowly entered the bath as with every step he took, his feet became hotter, than his leg, then his shin, and finally his hips where he took some time to wade in the bath and get used to the water.

The bath itself was about 2 yards in diameter and was shaped like an unidentified curve with 5 little "culdesac" shapes meant for leaning on and sitting.

Upon closer inspection, he could make out three other silhouettes in the spring, one sitting down 3 feet away from him to his left, the other two were a bit to the right of the horizon, but their figures could still be noticed. One of them was leaning against the little culdesac while the other one, a little more to the right of him, was simply sitting on the edge of the tub, dipping his feet in."So, you must be the new guy?" The person next to him asked.

"Yeah, I guess, who're you?" Doflamingo asked, slowly sitting down in the tub. "I am Ragyo Kiryuin, a pleasure." She said as she extended her hand for Doflamingo to shake it. When Doflamingo shook it, he noticed that her fingers were long, slender and smooth to the touch, almost familiar but yet foreign to him. When Doflamingo finished, Ragyo retracted her hand, unaware of the seemingly ripped shadow in front of her, "I am Homunculus, but you can call me 'Father'."The second voice from before joined in. "And I am, Ozai." The third and final voice said. "Well, nice to meet you, I guess." Doflamingo responded hesitantly with his face scrunched up in uncertainty.

"Name's Donquixote Doflamingo, so, what makes you guys so special that he recruited you?" Doflamingo asked, referring to their 'Boss'. "Well, my family discovered and worked with an ancient race of clothing aliens so that every single article of clothing in my Earth is controlled by the queen so that it can destroy the Earth and spread their seeds across the universe."

"..." "..." "..." everyone looked in confusion and silence as they all stared at Ragyo. "...It looks better than it sounds!" Ragyo responded.

"And how did that end up?" Doflamingo asked. "Well, initially, it would have ended up with me and my Kamui, Shinra-Koketsu, above the stars commanding the life fibers and watching the world be enveloped by them!" Ragyo explained. "Initially?" Doflamingo asked. "You see, if it weren't for my treacherous daughters and their little friends, I would have succeeded in my goal!" Ragyo exclaimed.

"But, wait, if you did succeed, then wouldn't that mean the destruction of your world?" Father asked. Ragyo was silent and immobile, pondering about Father's input. "...Hmm, yes, it appears that way." Ragyo realized. "Then what have you too gain?!" Father questioned with his silhouette standing upright. "What I gain the colonization of life fibers across the galaxy!" Ragyo followed suit and stood up with Father. "Yes, but wouldn't that entail your demise?" Father asked. "Y-yes." "So, just to clarify, your plan was to take alien clothes, control them from space, cover the world of said alien clothes, blow up your planet with them, die, and have their seeds spread across the galaxy?" Ozai asked with his hand to his chin. "...Yes." Ragyo admitted with her head leaning down.

"...*Snrk* *Snrk*" Doflamingo started snickering at the idea, along with Father and Ozai.

"HAHAHAHA!" All of them were laughing at the ridiculousness of Ragyo's plan. "HAHAHAHA S-S-So your telling me you used clothes to take over the WORLD?! HAHAHA!" Father said while holding his sides due to lack of air. With water splashing due to the combination of Ozai and Doflamingo hitting their knees while laughing their faces off, Ragyo was obviously ticked off. Her eyes started glowing red and was looking straight at the person nearest her, Doflamingo.

She suddenly reached toward him and gripped him by the neck, choking him. Doflamingo was surprised that she was able to outrun his observation haki, let alone grip him by the neck. "AND I SUPPOSE ALL OF YOU HAVE EVEN GREATER PLANS THAN ME, I WOULD LIKE TO HEAR THEM!" Ragyo screamed, addressing everyone but looking at Doflamingo. It was clear that she was mad and flustered of the reaction everyone made by her exposition. Doflamingo was both shocked and awestruck by his first flash of Ragyo's face. The rainbow streaks in her hair, the silver piercing eyes that would be similar to that of a dagger, and the redness of her face from anger, or a blush from embarrassment, he couldn't tell. Doflamingo snapped out of his trance and tried to raise his hand to summon his wires.

"Attention, everyone, we are holding a mandatory conference in the control room of the Deus Ex Zwei in 20 minutes. So, please, dress in your formal attire." A German voice came from a microphone above them. Ragyo then dropped Doflamingo and gave him some time to breath. "You got lucky this time, Flamingo boy." Ragyo said as she strutted away from him, her hips bobbing to-and-fro as she grabbed her clothes and donned a towel around her body and exited the bath house room.

After finally catching his breath completely, Doflamingo stood up and searched for his clothes. When he finally found them, Father tossed something at him. "Here, I assume you're going to need it." Doflamingo felt it and realized it was a towel. "Tch, Thanks." Doflamingo said as he rubbed his neck to try and mask the pain. "Well, I best leave and get ready. It was a pleasure meeting you, Mr. Donquixote." Father said as he walked out of the room too. Doflamingo wrapped the towel around him and put on his signature sunglasses and walked out of the room, clothes in hand with Ozai. "I can tell that we're going to get along swimmingly." Ozai said sarcastically and donned his towel.

"Well, this is perfect, I still don't know where my room is!" Doflamingo exclaimed, obviously pissed off. "Could it be that door over there labeled 'Doflamingo's Room'?" Ozai said as he pointed at the door to the right of the exit. Doflamingo didn't believe Ozai, but when he looked closer, it was true. The door had a little sign nailed on it that spelled his name in fancy lettering. Doflamingo formed a twitch in his right eye and stared at the door for 3 minutes before growling and opening the door and rushing inside it.

"Grrrr-huh?" Doflamingo growled until he turned on the lights and looked around the room clearly. It was an exact replication of his room, from the 8' X 10' canopy bed, to the 11 foot wide sofa he had in front of the bed, which made Doflamingo grin. "Heh, I see you did your homework, Major." Doflamingo commented on The Major's handiwork. "It almost makes up for your incompetence!" Doflamingo screamed as he yanked his towel off his hips and proceeded to dry himself and put his clothes back on.

Once he was finished, Doflamingo walked out of his room and went back to the monitor room he saw at the beginning of his little trek, assuming that that was the control room mentioned in the announcement. "Wait a minute, what am I doing?! I'm not some lamb to be herded by the fat shepherd! I'm gonna relax in my room!" Doflamingo exclaimed, turning back to his point of origin.

"I would advise against that." Someone said. Doflamingo turned to the left to see who the voice came from. It came from a man, or he assumed was a man, that lurked in the darkness of the hallway so Doflamingo couldn't see him all the way. "Tch, and why's that?" Doflamingo asked with a smile. "Because if you don't.." The man started but stopped, only to proceed walking down the hallway. The closer he got, the more anticipated Doflamingo was to face him. Every footstep echoing in the hallway as he slowly got closer to Doflamingo. Doflamingo readied himself when he was 3 feet in front of him and still coming, he twitched his hands and had his wires hover above him. When Doflamingo finally met him face-to-face, he was surprised. "...you'll end up just like me." The man finished.

Doflamingo assumed that the thing standing in front of him was a man, but it was hard to tell. Most men don't have one of their eyes bulging and red. Nor do they have grayish purple skin. Needless to say, this made the pirate captain very unnerved. "Uhhh...*ahem* So,uh, who are you?" Doflamingo questioned the newcomer. "I am First Lieutenant Incognito of Millennium." Incognito answered. "Incognito, eh, wait, you said of Millennium?" Doflamingo replied. "Yes." "Than that means you work for him?!" Doflamingo asked, assuming he knew who he was referring to. "If you mean The Major, than yes, I do work under him." Incognito explained.

"We should probably go to the conference." Incognito suggested and started walking forward again. Doflamingo walked with him, "Hold on a sec, before I try to talk to this guy, I would like to know a bit more about The Major!" Doflamingo requested. "...Very well, I will tell you all I know." Incognito said while walking side by side with Doflamingo.

"In an alternate dimension there was a man, a man who yearned for a World War unlike any other. He called himself 'Sturmbannführer', The Major." Incognito started. Doflamingo just stared at him with a blank expression while he talked. "In order to accomplish this he assembled an army of one thousand Nazi Vampires and his top 8 men." he continued. "Nazis?" Doflamingo asked. "Basically, in his world, there was a group called the National Socialist German Workers' Party, whose main idea was to purge the world of Jewish people because the person in charge, Adolf Hitler, felt that they were unclean and needed to be erased from this world. But, The Major, he sought to cause destruction on a massive scale, and used the Nazi party to achieve this goal. Adolf Hitler put him in charge of Order #666 which was to create an immortal army of vampires so that they could become unstoppable and drive the world into an age of chaos and ruin." Incognito paused. "So, what happened to him?" Doflamingo asked.

"Their plans were stopped by a group called Allies, an alliance made up of all the countries of the world against the Nazi party. This includes America, Britain, France, Russia, China, Belgium, Poland, and other countries. It appeared that it was the last we would see of the Third Reich, which is what the main army was called." Incognito said, turning to Doflamingo, his face still expressionless. "However, 50 years have passed and in that time The Major has created an army of invincible, war mongering, Nazi vampires at his beck and call. So he decided to make his first target London, England, where he met his demise." He finished. "By who?" Doflamingo asked, a look of curiosity plastered on his face.

In that time they were walking, they saw the light from the conference room about 6 meters away. "Heh, I suppose you'll find out soon." Incognito said with a smirk. "Maybe I will, Nito, maybe I will." Doflamingo responded. Incognito didn't acknowledge his new nickname but was still irked by it, as visible by the sound of him gnashing his teeth, but he just bore it when they went inside the conference room.

When they entered, Doflamingo paused for a moment as he saw a crowd of what he assumed were foot soldiers and engineers taking up the majority of the room but all stood in 7-by-9 person squares around the room. Around the top of the walls were computer monitors which looked like pieces of a map scattered around the room. What caught his eye the most was a raised platform at the back of the room where The Major, along with what he assumed were his "top men" and Doflamingo's "Hot Spring Buddies" stood next to each other.

"There they are!" The Major exclaimed as he pointed to Doflamingo and Incognito, while everyone turned to where he pointed. "Doflamingo, Incognito come up here, we are about to start!" The Major exclaimed excitedly with his eyes widened and his mouth curved upwards. In one jump, Doflamingo jumped to the other side of the room on the raised platform next to The Major, all the soldiers stood slack-jawed as to what they saw, while Incognito just walked until he reached the stairs and quickly walked up them.

"Achtung!" The bespectacled, blonde Doktor commanded as the soldiers stood straight in unison. The Doktor continued "*AHEM!* Ladies and gentlemen, it is with pleasure and honor that I present you our first Inter-dimensional conference!" Doktor exclaimed as the soldiers cheered and shouted with a few "Sieg Hiel"s here and there. "Now, it is my pleasure to finally bring to you the man who orchestrated this glorious cacophony of chaos, THE MAJOR!" The Doktor said with enthusiasm. The crowd went wild as the man in question walked to the center of the platform. The soldiers and everyone on the platform stood silent as they awaited The Major's exposition. "...Gentlemen..." The Major started and the crowd was on the edge of their metaphorical seats as they awaited his continuation.

"It has been said before that I like war, Gentlemen, I like war. NO! Gentlemen, I love war!"

Meanwhile at the Hellsing Organization.

"What do you mean, you require our services?!" Luffy asked. "Just that, I need your help." Integra responded as she rose from her chair. "Help with what?" Usopp asked. Integra then took out her cigar to puff out the smoke. "A bit of an infestation." She said as she grinned toward them.

"You see, you are not in your world anymore, you're in London, Britain in the year 2029. I have brought you here because I have no other choice but to acquire allies in the war ahead." Integra explained.

"War, against who?" Franky asked as he struggled to stand in the relatively small room, forcing him to sit and cross his legs. Integra took another puff then waited a couple seconds before answering. "...Millennium, I assume you have met them already?" Integra asked while everyone was thinking about who "Millennium" might be.

"Wait!" Luffy said. "Is one of them a big guy in a green jacket and hat?" Luffy asked, doing his best to stretch himself to give her a visual interpretation. "Yes." Integra replied. Luffy then walked to Integra's desk and stopped himself right at the front. He was silent for a few seconds.

"WHO THE HELL ARE THEY?!" Luffy yelled, slamming the desk while everyone jumped in shock. "They are an organization whose main goal is to cause chaos on an international scale and wish to destroy us." Integra calmly responded. Luffy tilted his head to the side as an expression of confusion at Integra's vocabulary. "*Sigh.* It means that they're bad guys who want to destroy the world!" Usopp explained to Luffy. "Oh!" Luffy said.

"Normally we wouldn't go to such extremes as to draft people unexpectedly." Integra explained. "Then why'd ya bring us here?" Zoro asked. "Normally, we could handle this situation ourselves, but we have reason to believe that without your help, Millennium will have the upper hand." Integra said as she walked back to her chair and sat down. "Why us, though?!" Usopp demanded an answer. "We have acquired information leading us to believe that someone in your world is associated with Millennium." Integra continued. Luffy gasped as he realized the situation. "Doflamingo." He said. "In his palace, I saw him talking to a fat, short, blonde-haired man in a white suit."

"So your hunch was right." Edward said as he decided to talk again. "Wait, hold on." Luffy paused "Are you from a different world too?" Luffy asked Edward. "Yep!" Edward responded. "Woah." Luffy said and sat in front of Ed. "So what's it like?" he asked. "Does it have Fish-men, Zombies, Sea-kings?!" Luffy asked with a grin on his face. "Umm, no." Edward responded. "Awww, well at least we know yours has dwarves." Luffy responded unaware of what was coming. "Oh, Lord, no." Integra said, palming her face.

"DWARVES?! WUDDAYA MEAN BY THAT?!" Edward yelled as he was clearly pissed off and trying to punch Luffy but missing everytime. "Jeez, Ed calm down." Luffy said between punches as all his crew could was watch with their mouths agape. "CALM DOWN?! I'M PERFECTLY CALM! IT'S YOU WHO'S CALLING ME A PINT-SIZED MIDGET NOT TALL ENOUGH TO SAVE YOUR ASS!" Ed said as he was trying to punch faster but still missing Luffy.

"You've..." A voice started. "GOTTA BE KIDDING ME!" After the voice was finished, Ed passed out on the floor with blood spilling out his skull. "AAAGGHHH!" Chopper started. "DOCTOR, WE NEED A DOCTOR, DOCTOR, DOCTOR!" He ran around the room pleading for help. "Uhhh, Chopper." Usopp started. "...Oh yeah." Chopper realized his mistake and chuckled in embarrassment before running to Edward's aid and wrapping a bandage on his head that he got from a first-aid kit in his pocket.

"Whoop, sorry, didn't mean to startle you that bad." The unknown voice continued. Then everyone looked at the source of the sudden outburst. "OOOOHHH, IT'S YOU!" Sanji suddenly said as he was dancing again with hearts in his eyes, his arms clasped together, and his knees wobbly. "*SIGH.* Hello again." the newcomer said.

She was a teenage girl who appeared to almost be 18. She had blue eyes and black hair with an obvious red highlight. Her most notable feature, however, was her uniform. It looked like a two-piece but was tied together by suspender straps the bottom looking like a black skirt and the top part a normal, black shirt but it had a weird black patch on the left side and a red and yellow dot patch on the right side. She also donned one red glove on her left hand without a matching one.

"Name's Ryuko Matoi, and I will be your comrade in arms for this war." She casually said with a greeting smile. "SO THAT'S YOUR NAME ISN'T IT?!" Sanji asked while dancing around her. "Ugh, what is this guy's problem, I save him once and suddenly he chases me like a dog" Ryuko exclaimed. "Get used to it." Robin and Nami answered simultaneously. Ryuko sighed as she slowly realized what she got herself into.

"Thank you, Ms. Matoi, for handling that, you may leave." Integra said. "No problem, see you guys around!" Ryuko said as she left the room and waved goodbye, Sanji still tailing her until Robin grabbed him by his collar with one of her arms, choking him. "Oh Robin, no need to worry, I still love you!" Sanji said while being dragged by Robin, his heels skidding on the blue carpet floors.

"Anyway, let's get down to business, we need your help, and whoever else is willing to join us, to stop what could be the greatest disaster from befalling our worlds." Integra continued after the interruption. "Why do you need us though?!" Usopp asked. "You seem to act like you have everything under control. You already have allies from different universes!" Usopp exclaimed referring to Edward and Ryuko. "Why do you need us specifically? What's stopping us from just rejecting your proposal and letting us leave?!" Usopp repeated. "Yeah, that's right, why should we get involved in your world's crap?!" Zoro asked, while Integra was getting peeved at their outbursts. "Why can't you deal with this 'Millennium' on your own?" Robin asked.

"BELIEVE ME, THIS IS THE LAST THING I WOULD RESORT TO!" Integra screamed as she slammed her fist on her desk. The Strawhats all jumped in surprise and they all shut their mouths so that Integra could continue. "I HAVE DEFEATED THIS ENEMY ONCE BEFORE, AND I WILL DAMN WELL DO IT AGAIN IF I HAVE TO! BUT I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY! WHY IS HE BACK?! HOW IS HE BACK?! HOW COULD HE HAVE POSSIBLY ALLIED WITH PEOPLE FROM DIFFERENT WORLDS?! ANSWER ME THAT AND I WILL CONSIDER YOUR PLEA!" Integra exploded while the crew kept silent for a couple minutes to have her cool down and catch her breath.

An idea then occurred to Usopp. "Wait, how did you get us here in the first place? Didn't you say we're in an alternate world? How is it possible that you can bring people from one world to another?" Usopp pondered.

"I knew you would ask about that." Integra started. "So here it is." She finished and pointed to her red clad servant standing next to her, who also . "This, is my servant Alucard, he recently acquired the supernatural ability to be both everywhere and nowhere." Integra informed them. "Everywhere and nowhere? How does that work?" Brook asked. "I'm not entirely sure myself, but basically, he is omnipresent. He can by anywhere at will, and that includes alternate worlds." Integra remarked.

"Hold on, then." Usopp started again. "If he is omnipresent, then shouldn't he be able to just sneak into Millennium's base and kill The Major or whoever it was?" Usopp finished.

"We tried that first, but somehow, they've built a sort of fence so that Alucard can not get in. Which is where you come in!" Integra pointed to them as she said this.

Usopp started to sweat, "W-W-Wait, hold on, why do you need us? Can't you just take us home and have us deal with our own problems?!" Usopp asked as he started to smile nervously. Integra opened her mouth to start talking; "No." Luffy said before Integra could speak.

"What?" Usopp asked. "Isn't it obvious that we should help them?!" Luffy asked Usopp. "Not that I'm against saving people and being a hero, but, LUFFY, SOMETIMES YOU JUST GOTTA LEAVE THIS TO THE PROFESSIONALS!" Usopp exclaimed with his mouth stretching to the ground. Luffy was silent for a couple of minutes before turning to Integra's desk. "...Hey, 'Tegra." Luffy started while Integra furrowed her eyebrows in irk as she heard her new nickname.

"If we say 'no', what happens?" Luffy asked as his hat shaded his face. Integra took a long puff of her cigar and took about 2 minutes to puff it all out before she decided to answer. She stood up from her desk again and walked in front of Luffy. "...I'm not forcing you to stay here, if you want to go back to your world and continue whatever you were doing, go ahead." Integra continued. Luffy backed away from Integra and turned to his crew.

"Well, guys? What do ya think?" Luffy asked. All of the crews faces had a look of distraught which matched the darkness of the room.

"Although," Integra started as everyone turned toward her. "If you do decide that you want to go back to your world, then I sure hope you have a bunker." Integra smirked as she said this. The crew looked confused by what she said. "To paint you a picture: think about your worst enemies, your toughest opponents, the worst of your unmatched rivals, and multiply them ten-fold." Integra continued.

The whole crew gasp as she said this, none of them knew how to properly react to this bit of news, nor had any idea about what the best option was. Luffy then turned around to speak up again.

"All right, 'Tegra, we accept." Luffy responded as he punched his hands in a show of determination and triumph. The rest of the crew however, either screamed in fear or sighed disappointingly. Integra merely grinned at the thought of a new soldier in her army.

"LUFFY, ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!" Usopp screamed as he started pulling on his face. "YOU'VE MADE SOME PRETTY POOR DECISIONS BEFORE, BUT, BY FAR, THIS IS ONE OF THE WORSE!" Usopp continued. "DO YOU WANT US TO GET KILLED?!" Nami asked as she joined in on pulling Luffy's face. Integra just watched in awe at the scene in front of her.

After about 4 minutes of his face being pulled, Luffy finally had a chance to explain himself. "Listen, guys, I know I've done some pretty stupid crap before and I'm sorry if not all of you are for this. It's just, I feel that if we don't help destroy this 'Millennium' or whatever, then I feel like that I missed an opportunity to actual help people without the world government tailing us all the time." Luffy explained, his crew shocked by his surprisingly deep reason. "If we don't help out Integra here, then all she's got left are the suckers that said yes before us. We can't let this opportunity slip from our hands. Call me a child as much as you want, but..." Luffy paused as he smiled and held out his hand.

"I FEEL LIKE I CAN SAVE OUR WORLDS!" Luffy finished. Nami and Usopp sighed as they heard this. "Don't bother trying to change his mind, you know how he is." Zoro added with a smirk. "That doesn't mean we can like it, though!" Nami replyed. "Sounds, interesting, I wonder what kind of people or monsters we'll see in this adventure." Robin said with a grin. "Ugh, don't say that, Robin, it freaks me out!" Usopp said as he shivered in fear.

"So what do you say, Strawhats, fancy a war?" Integra asked with a smile.

Luffy nodded in agreement. "'Tegra, we would like to fight with you!" Luffy yelled in proclamation. "Splendid!" Integra responded.

"But before we begin, I believe it would be fair to inform you on who you are up against."


Whew, there ya go, finally done! Hope you enjoyed this, folks! I know only like 10 people are reading this and probably less are following it, but for those still with me, I would like to say "Thank you"! As always, if you have any suggestions about who you would like to see, or if I made a couple boo-boos, tell me so I can learn how to improve my writing skills and if I can love some more anime. Thank you and good night!
