The Sea Train crashed into the Justice Building and the crew heard from Fukuro about the keys that they need to retrieve for Robin's sea stone cuffs. They decided to split up in order to find the CP9 agents while Luffy goes after Robin. Rose is currently running through the Justice Building with Sanji until they stop at a door.

Before he walks in Rose puts a hand on the door "Sanji, I'll take this one. You should go further." (As much as I respect Sanji's no hit women rule he needs to focus on the mission.)

Sanji quirks an eyebrow at her "Do you know who's behind this door Rose-Chan?"

"It's just easier if we split up. Please hurry! If you don't keep going Robin won't be saved by her prince!"

"HOLD ON ROBIN-CHWAAN!" He runs further into the Justice Building while Rose turns to the door.

(I'm glad that worked. Time for a rematch.) Rose walks into the room to find Kalifa waiting for her.

"Well, well we just keep meeting Ms. Catone Rose." Kalifa says as she shuts the door behind her.

"Hehe, it's like fate's giving me a second chance to come at you."

"I'm surprised you're even willing to come at all. I don't know what you said to Spandam and frankly I don't care, but you spooked him enough to give us a specific order along with cutting down your crew."

Rose raised an eyebrow at this. "Oh really? And what would that be?"

"If we had the chance to find you we were ordered to…" Kalifa air jumped and appeared right behind her and whispered in her ear "Make you wish you were dead then bring you to Impel Down."

Before Rose can react Kalifa touched her right arm and used her devil fruit to make it into an odd bubbly shape before Rose flew away from her and sent a twister kick her way.

(Crap, I forgot about her devil fruit… I gotta get my arm in some water.) She blasted wind at Kalifa to slam her to the wall and held her there while using a twister kick to break the faucet of the bath tub causing the water to erupt and placed her arm in the geyser.

Kalifa sent a tempest kick her way causing her to release the hold as she dodged. "Not bad Kalifa, I'm surprised you can control the bubble bubble fruit so well after just eating it."

Kalifa freezes in shock. "J-just because you know my devil fruit doesn't mean you can win!"

"We'll see about that!" Rose turned her arm into a twister "TWISTER PUNCH!" She aimed it at Kalifa but she air jumped to dodge and aimed a bubble tide at her but cut through it with a wind blade. Rose slammed Kalifa to the wall again but she protected herself with a soap shield.

Kalifa sent bubbles to sap her strength but she used a wind barrier to protect herself. She unsheathed her twin blades and aimed a wind blade storm at Kalifa but she used tekkai to block it but felt it.

Both of them are panting while Rose sheathes the blades. (This is getting the both of us nowhere… I got an idea!) Rose snapped her fingers to form three mini tornadoes going towards Kalifa.

Kalifa laughs at the attempt. "I get it now! You're a new devil fruit user as well. How sad that I'm more beautiful and more capable of using my powers than you."

Roses eye twitched then she smirked "It's true, I'm still new to my abilities. But, learning about what I can do every day makes beating bimbos like you more enjoyable!"

The three tornadoes grew and cornered Kalifa but before she can air jump out of the way Rose flew up above her with both of her arms turned into tornadoes. "TWISTER BARRAGE!" All the tornadoes morphed into one huge twister and attacked Kalifa with it and trapped her there as long as she could keep the twister under control.

When Rose called off the attack she landed on her knees panting (Keeping those tornadoes under control takes a lore more out of me than I thought. I guess I found my trump card… KALIFA!) She got up in a stance to face Kalifa only to find her unconscious on the ground. "I-I DID IT! Oh right, the key!" Rose went over to her and cautiously grabbed the key from her. (I can't believe I won! I think I'm getting the hang of this.)

"Rose?!" Rose turns to the doorway to see Nami shocked.

"Nami, I'm glad you're here. Here's one of the keys to the sea stone cuffs." She tosses the key to Nami and looks at it with excitement.

"Great job Rose! That's just what we need!"

"Thanks." Rose smiles in satisfaction then looks at her in confusion. "Wait, where's Chopper?"

"Kumadori caught up with us and he's facing him right now."

(SHIT! THIS IS NO TIME TO BE CELEBRATING! WHAT'S WRONG WITH ME?!) "Nami, you go to the guys and give them that key! I gotta go help Chopper!"

Rose quickly runs out of the room leaving a confused Nami with the key.


"I DID IT! I LOCKED HIM UP!" Chopper cheers of his accomplishment of locking Kumadori in the fridge.

"HOLD IT GORILLA! I NEED THAT FRIDGE!" Franky yells as he fights off Fukuro.

"The CP9 agent and the punk! AND WHO ARE YOU CALLING A GORILLA?!"

"DAMN YOU'RE SLOW! Look, I'm on your side here! In order to save Robin I need you get me three bottles of cola from the fridge."

"WHAT KIND OF IDIOT RUNS ON COLA?!"

"Don't underestimate the power of cola Chopper." All of them look to the doorway to find Rose running into the kitchen. (Good, I'm not too late.)

Franky gives her a thumb up. "I'm glad you see it my way Freckles!"

"How much longer will you keep ignoring me? Chapapa! It's rude to have a conversation during a battle!" Fukuro aims his attack at Franky but Rose uses a wind blast to slam him to the wall.

"Why not give me a fight instead Fukuro? Chopper, please hurry!"

Fukuro immediately gets up and goes at it with Rose while Chopper quickly snatches three bottles of tomato juice and gives it to him.

"FRESH!" Both Rose and Fukuro stop in shock to see Franky's hair change into the shape of a tomato. "FRESHNESS IS THE BEST! VEGETABLE PUNCH!" He aims a weak punch at Fukuro earning him a punch that sends him flying. "WHO THE HELL SAYS 'FRESH IS THE BEST?!'" he throws the bottles at the fridge then quickly receives three bottles of tea from Chopper and his hair and personality changed again.

This time his hair turned into three wavy strands and he sat down while wiping sweat off of his head. "Now I'm feeling good! Man, we shouldn't be fighting. We should all settle down and have some tea." He quickly takes out the tea bottles and throws them at the fridge. "THAT'S NOT IT EITHER!"

(He's so funny!) Both Rose and Chopper look at Franky with excitement.

Franky looks at them in irritation. "HEY YOU BRATS! WHAT'S UP WITH THE 'WHAT WILL HAPPEN IF YOU GIVE ME DIFFERENT DRINKS FACES?!' GIVE ME COLA!"

Chopper quickly gives him the three bottles of Cola and he gets back into action by sending a punch to Fukuro. Both Rose and Chopper stand back while Franky fights Fukuro.

Chopper realizes he forgot something. "OH RIGHT! Rose, we need to find key number 2!"

"Don't worry Chopper. I took the number 2 key from Kalifa and Nami's got it now."

Chopper stares at her with stars in his eyes. "R-really?! You're so cool Rose!"

She gives him a sheepish grin and rubs the back of her neck "Oh come on now. I'm not-"

"YOYOI! Diid I heeaar correctly? Yooou're Roooose?" Both of them turned around to find a fat Kumadori behind them.

Chopper looks at him in shock then goes into heavy point. "WAAH! He's out of the fridge! And he's fat?!"

"Did he eat the entire fridge? Yup, I'm Rose. You're ready to fight me too?" She unsheathes her blades and gets into a stance.

Chopper tilts his head in confusion "Why is he asking for you Rose?"

"I kind of scared their boss, so now they want me sent to Impel Down."

"WHAT?!"

"YOYOI! DOOON'T IGNOORREE MEEE! IT'S RUDE!" Both of them turn to an angry skinny Kumadori.

Choppers eye widen in shock. "HOW DID YOU LOSE THE WEIGHT?!"

"Like this! Semei Kikan!" Kumadori suddenly gained the weight back then turned back to his normal physique. "I trained myself to control my entire body all the way to the tip of my hair!"

"Impressive!" Chopper says with excitement.

"Why thank you! Now then, prepare to lose!" Kumadori aims his hair at them causing Rose and Chopper to dodge.

"WIND BLADE STORM!" Rose sent the wind blades at Kumadori cutting some of the ends of his hair off.

"I HOPE YOU'RE READY TO PAY FOR RUINING MY MANLY MANE WITH YOUR LIFE!" Kumadori was furious as he uses his staff at aim it at her but it goes through her. Then Chopper got into Heavy Point to punch him but it didn't work.

Both of them are dodging his attacks when he started hiding from them. Rose turns to Chopper "Chopper, you gotta get out of here!"

"No way! I can't leave you alone knowing they're after you! I just need to get into Arm Point!"

"Forget it! You already ate a rumble ball right?! It's too dangerous for you to eat one ag- AAH!" Kumadori came out of hiding and slammed her to the wall with his staff then wrapped her limbs with his hair.

(ACK!) Rose sent Kumadori flying and slammed his head to the ceiling causing him to let go of her then Chopper charges at Kumadori to try to use arm point but used guard point by mistake then gets whacked by his staff.

(Crap! He ate the rumble ball!) Rose goes in between Chopper and Kumadori "TWISTER KICK!" Roses attack hits him and slams him to the wall but he immediately goes back up and turns his hair into finger pistols and attacks her but they go through her.

"WIND BLADE CROSS!" Roses wind blade cross hits Kumadori but he gets right back up with the wound. Rose is in a stance ready for the attack. (I can't let up now. I gotta keep going!)

Kumadori goes to attack her but Chopper finally goes to arm point and attacks him. "ROSEO METEL!" His attack hits Kumadori and causes him to pant in exhaustion.

"YOYOI! So strong, yet I can no longer HOLD BACK!" Kumadori goes to attack Chopper and Rose at full force.

"WIND BARRIER!" The barrier holds him back but it's not strong enough to hold his hair back as he hits both Rose and Chopper.

(DAMNIT! My logia abilities are acting up again.) "CHOPPER RUN!" Rose sheathed the blades and attacked him with a wind blade but he keeps going and countered by a whack to her side with his staff then goes to attack Chopper who's still trying to get up.

Before he could hit him Rose sent him flying to slam him to the ceiling then flew quickly at him while he's falling to slam the staff at Kumadori's face and slammed him to the ground. "Leave him alone Kumadori! Chopper, please get out of here!"

"YOYOI! I almost forgot about you!" Kumadori got up and pinned her to the ground with his staff then wrapped her limbs with his hair while she tries to fight back. "You were lucky to have been ordered alive. Let's go."

Chopper manages to sit up and watches Kumadori about to leave with Rose. (Hold on Rose! I'm sorry for not listening. When I transform, please run away…) Chopper grabs his last rumble ball shocking Rose.

"CHOPPER! DON'T DO IT!" But it was too late as he bit down on the drug and transformed to his monster point.

Rose took Kumadori's shock to her advantage and forced her wind to slam him to the wall and release her from his hold as she runs away from Choppers attack on Kumadori that knocks him out and sends him flying to Enies Lobby.

"WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED?! IS THAT THE DEER GORILLA?!" Rose turned to see Franky after he defeated Fukuro.

(This isn't good!) "Yea, it's Chopper. He ate too many rumble balls and now he's out of control! I'm gonna try to talk some sense into him." Rose flew up to his face. "DOC CALM DOWN! YOU GOTTA GET AHOLD OF YOURSELF! YOU WON THE FIGHT SO PLEASE STOP! DON'T YOU RECOGNIZE ME?! IT'S ME ROSE!"

He ignored her and tried to attack her but she dodge and got Franky out of the way of his attack before climbing the building.

Franky lifts his sunglasses to look at him "Looks like there's no getting to him. Did this happen before?"

She shook her head. "No, this is the first time…" (I'm sorry Chopper…)

"In that case we have to-"

"Say that we have to kill him and I'll dismantle you." She gives him a death glare causing him to sweat drop.

"Yes ma'am... Where's he going anyway?"

"I think I know where he's heading! Come on!" Rose ran with Franky to where Chopper is going.


"WHAT THE HELL?!" Sanji yells as his fight with Jabra got interrupted by Chopper attacking the room.

Nami just got the cuffs off of Zoro and Sniper King and are running away from Chopper.

"Wait, isn't that Chopper?!" Sniper King says as he points to Choppers hat and the others realize that it's him.

"DOESN'T HE RECOGNIZE US?!" Nami yells as she avoids his giant hand.

"GUYS! ARE YOU OK?!" Rose yells as she and Franky run into the room.

"DO WE LOOK ALRIGHT?! WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO CHOPPER?!" Zoro yells as he stops Kaku from attacking Chopper.

"He ate too many rumble balls, but we got an idea! Franky!"

"SUUPPPEEER! Time for a COUP DE VENT!" Franky shoots his attack at Chopper and sent him towards the ocean.

Rose flew outside and pushed Franky into the ocean with her wind so he could get Chopper faster.

"Rose!" Before Rose joined him she was stopped by Nami. "Take these keys and this baby den den mushi with you and go get Robin with Franky! We'll catch up with you after we get the other keys!" Nami tosses the keys to her as she nods.

"No problem! When Zoro and Sanji get the keys shoot them over to the gate!" Rose lands where Franky is while Nami nods in understanding then grabs Sniper King's arm and drags him out of the room. "Sniper King! Come with me!"

Sniper King looks at her in shock. "What?! Why?!"

"I'm gonna prove to you that you're not useless!"

Sniper King keeps looking at her in shock as he's being dragged by her.


Rose and Franky follow Chimney and Kokoro to the tunnel leading to the Gates of Justice.

"Thanks for the help Chimney and Kokoro! Please take care of Chopper!" Rose says as she and Franky go off to the tunnel.

"Good luck wind pirate!" Chimney says as she waves them off.

"Ngagaga! Don't worry we'll take care of your reindeer friend!" Kokoro takes a swig as she sees Rose and Franky run into the tunnel.

"Oh, before I forget again here!" Rose tossed Franky three bottles of cola while running.

"SUPER! Thanks fre- YOU HAD THESE THE WHOLE TIME AND YOU DIDN'T TELL ME?!"

"I'M SORRY, I FORGOT!" (I was so distracted by his funny personalities that I completely forgot I grabbed some from the sea train.)

He places the bottles in his stomach fridge then sighs. "Whatever, let's get going!"

Those two ran through the tunnel until they reached the room to where Luffy was facing Lucci.

"ROSE, YOU MADE IT! HEY PUNK! WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?!" Luffy gives a hard glare to Franky.

Franky glares back "I KEEP TELLING YOU PEOPLE I'M ON YOUR SIDE!"

"He's right Luffy! Where's-" Rose cuts herself off when she sees Lucci blocking the doorway.

Lucci gives off a devilish grin at them while waiting for them.

"Rose, I need you to take Franky to Robin while I keep him busy." Luffy runs to Lucci while Rose flies with Franky to the door. Lucci immediately slams Luffy to the crates then blocks Rose and Franky.

"Leaving so soon?"

"STRONG RIGHT!" Franky launches his fist at Lucci but it didn't do any good causing him to be shocked.

"I'm impressed you managed to defeat Fukuro but that move won't work on me!" Lucci launches a fist at Franky but Rosh pushed him out of the way and made the punch go through her.

Lucci's eyes widened at Roses glare then gave her a devilish smirk "Fufu, so you're the one studying Hell's Comet. I wonder what you want to know from it. How to leave this world or how people are brought here?" Lucci added venom in the last word causing Roses eyes to widen.

(Could it be he-?)

"GUM GUM JET PISTOL!" Luffy launched a fast punch in second gear at Lucci to send him flying and causing Franky and Rose to be shocked.

(I can't worry about that now. We have to go!) "Luffy, we'll leave him to you! Good luck!" Rose quickly flew along with Franky out of the room while Luffy and Lucci face off.

"What was up with Straw Hat?! He was steaming!" Franky asks as they flew up the stairs.

"That was second gear. He powers his moves up by pumping up his blood but only for a few minutes."

"Whoa! Hey, what did Lucci mean by Hell's Comet?"

"I'll be more than happy to answer any questions you may have after we get out of here."

"DON'T AVOID QUESTIONS AFTER YOU JUST ANSWERED ONE DAMNIT!"

Rose continued to avoid the topic as they flew through the tunnel.


(I have to keep fighting! The others are coming for me! I don't want to die!) Robin continues to struggle as hard as she can to not go through the gates while Spandam is trying to forcefully drag her through them.

"WILL YOU GIVE UP ALREADY?! Even if they did manage to pass Lucci there's no way they'll make it here! I set up bombs along the walls of the entrance that are so sensitive that even if the wind girl flew past the doorway she will be blown to bits!"

(What?! No!) "I won't give up! They're coming to save me!"

"No one is coming idiot! I'm finishing the hunt of Ohara my father started no matter what!"

"Ohara is alive as long as I'm here!"

"And how long will that be?!"

They both stopped when they heard an explosion and saw Rose and Franky sent flying into the ocean.

Robin watched the scene in tears. (No!)

"I TOLD THOSE IDIOTS I WANTED THE WIND GIRL ALIVE! Oh well, one less menace for the world to deal with. Let's hurry!" Spandam dragged Robin across the bridge while her tears continued to flow. "Take a good look gentlemen because this one step through the gate will carve my name in history!" Before Spandam can make that step he was shot in the back by an exploding star and was knocked down the stairs causing him to let go of Robin.

Robin and the others looked at the roof of the Justice Building in shock to find Sniper King shooting at the marines around her.

"Way to go Sniper King!" Nami says as she pats him on the back while watching with her binoculars.

"All in a day's work for Sniper King!" He strikes his pose while singing his theme song.

Robin gives a smile while tears continue to stream down her face. (Long Nose. Thank you) Robin gets up to run with the marines about to shoot her.

"MAKE SURE YOU AIM FOR HER LEGS! WE WANT HER ALIVE!" Spandam orders as the men take aim and fire only for their shots to be blocked by Franky.

Franky gives the marines a smirk "Hehe, shots like that won't work on a guy made of steel right Spanda?"

"I'm impressed you were able to think of sensitivity bombs for my wind Spandam. Too bad they can only get you so far." Spandam looks up in horror to find Rose above him cracking her knuckles. "Franky, I trust you to protect Robin. I gotta keep my promise to Kokoro to beat Spandam into next week. Here are the keys and the baby den den mushi Nami gave me." Rose tossed the keys and baby den den mushi to Franky while smirking. "Sniper King should be shooting over the other keys right about now."

On cue the keys landed next to Franky as he nods. "Got it. Don't go too hard on him though I want to take a crack at him."

"Y-YOU GOT ALL THE KEYS?!" Spandam watches in shock but Rose doesn't give him time to calm down as she lands a flying kick right on his nose and continually attacks him while focusing on a wind barrier so the marines couldn't interfere.

As Rose beats on Spandam he notices her crystal necklace. (It couldn't be! That's the only way she could have known those things about me.) "I JUST FIGURED YOU OUT! YOU CAME HERE DIDN'T YOU?!"

Rose slammed him to the ground with her wind before quirking an eyebrow. "If you mean I flew to the bridge then yes I did."

"THAT'S NOT WHAT I MEANT! YOU'RE FROM-" Before Spandam could finish Robin sprouted arms on Spandams body and slapped him like there's no tomorrow.

Rose used her wind to push the surrounding marines into the ocean as she released the barrier to see Robin free of her sea stone cuffs. "Good to have you back Robin."

"Thank you Rose." Robin held back her tears of joy as she puts some of the charging marines in a hold while Franky and Rose fought the others off.

They all stop to see the ships from the Buster Call blast the roof of the Justice Building.

"USOPP! NAMI!" Rose and Robin yelled out but the baby den den mushi spoke up sounding like Nami.

"Don't worry guys we're ok. We're heading your way now. Just hold on until we get there."

Rose sighed in relief "Glad they're ok." .

"Can you keep fighting Robin?" Franky asks as he and Rose get in a stance.

"Of course."

"MEN! YOU CAN KILL THE CYBORG BUT MAKE SURE BOTH GIRLS ARE ALIVE!" Spandam watches in shock as all three of them fought off the marines one after the other.

They all stop when the ships from the Buster Call approach the bridge and go past it to attack the island while the marines on the bridge run away to the ship.

Rose and Franky turn to find Robin on her knees trembling then look in shock to find a warship blasting its own ship in an attempt to stop Luffy.

"Weren't your allies on that ship Spanda?" Franky says in rage as he cracks his knuckles while Rose stands protectively between Robin and the marines.

"It doesn't matter because it's all for justice! I hold the power of the Buster Call so I have all the power! I'll make you a deal Cutty Flam, hand over the girls and I'll pardon you. Why even consider protecting them? One of them is the last demon of Ohara and the other an outsider who wants spirit us away with Hell's Comet!"

(What did he say?) Roses eyes widen in shock at the accusation but grits her teeth as she kept her stance while Spandam kept running his mouth.

"You're not even a pirate Cutty Flam! You should focus on helping the government that protects you instead of going down the path Tom did-"

Franky cuts him off with a strong right. "You never know when to shut up do you? I don't know about this comet, but I doubt this kid wants to spirit people away. Since you were wrong about Robin wanting to revive the weapon why should I believe you about her? Freckles, the others are coming right?"

Rose blinks in surprise then grins (Thanks Franky.) "No doubt about it."

"Then I'm on their side. I'd rather help pirates than World Government scum like you anyway."

Spandam became furious and sent his elephant sword at them but Franky stopped it and slammed the elephant onto Spandam while Rose attacked the marines that charged at her and Robin. Watching how protective they were calmed Robin down and got her to help the others fight off the marines and steal the boat.

"How are you feeling Robin?" Rose asks as she sends the last marine flying.

"I'm alright Rose, things are different now. What did Spandam mean by Hell's Comet?"

Rose looked down in worry. "Well-"

A giant splash shocks them to find Kokoro in her mermaid form and bringing everyone but Luffy onto the deck.

"Are you guys ok?!" Rose went to each one to find them getting up.

"Yea we're fine thanks." Zoro says as he and the other guys look at Kokoro in shock.

"So you're a mermaid Kokoro? That's awesome! Is it true about the age thirty rule?" Rose says as she looks at her with excitement.

"That's right! Once a mermaid turns thirty we're able to live on land because our fins split in two."

"That's so cool!" Rose looks at her with excitement while the others sweat drop at her reaction.

Sniper King turns his head to Zoro "Isn't she a little bit shocked at this?"

Zoro waves his hand dismissively. "Just leave her alone."

"ROBIN!" Nami runs to hug Robin with Chopper clinging to her while Sanji tried to but missed.

"WE MISSED YOU! ARE YOU OK?!" Nami asked with tears in her eyes.

"I'm alright. It's all thanks to you." Robin says with a smile on her face.

Chopper falls off of Nami but Rose caught him. "What the? I can't move!"

"Don't worry doc, I think it's temporary." Rose says with a reassuring grin when the war ships start to surround them. Everyone ran to the bridge to check on Luffy to find him still fighting Lucci. (Crap!) She got her staff out and ready when the marines began to charge and begins to fight alongside the crew.

"LUFFY!" Usopp takes off his mask after he sees Luffy on the ground. "WHAT ARE YOU DOING LYING DOWN LUFFY?! GET UP!"

Luffy turns his head in surprise to see Usopp. "USOPP?!"

"I'M ONLY HERE TO HELP ROBIN! CAT GUY, I'LL BE YOUR OPPONENT! COME AND GET ME!"

"USOPP YOU IDIOT! YOU'RE NO MATCH FOR HIM!"

"AND WHAT CAN YOU DO?!"

"I'M GONNA FINISH HIM OFF!"

"THEN GET UP AND FIGHT! WE'RE NOT DEAD YET! WIN SO WE CAN GO BACK TOGETHER LUFFY!" Usopps words encouraged him to stand up and get back in the fight with Lucci.

(Well said Usopp.) Rose sent the marines surrounding her flying and more are still coming. (Crap, if the others weren't here I could send a twister at them. Come on Luffy!)

"GUM GUM GATLING!" Luffy finished the fight with Lucci and collapsed on the ground. "WE'RE GOING BACK TOGETHER ROBIN!"

The crew cheered for Luffy's victory while the marines stared in shock of Lucci's defeat. After their wave of happiness they were surprised that Luffy couldn't move.

Usopp looks at him in shock "GET UP LUFFY! Rose can't you fly him over here?"

"It's possible, but like I said he would be a moving target for them."

Nami blocks off a marine before speaking. "We can't take the risk. Let's get on the ship and we can-"

Before she can finish one of the warships blew up their escape ship.

"WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO NOW?! THAT WAS OUR ONLY ESCAPE!" Franky yells

(Shit! We're surrounded! Wait, what's that?!) Rose hears a strange voice along with Usopp.

"Who's voice is this?!" Usopp is trying to figure it out then looks into the ocean.

"You can hear it too?" Usopp turns to her in shock as she looks into the ocean. (There's no doubt about it.) "Usopp, are you thinking what I'm thinking?"

Usopp nods then takes a deep breath. "EVERYONE JUMP INTO THE OCEAN!"

Everyone but Rose turns to him in shock then looks in the ocean to understand. Robin uses her devil fruit to drop Luffy to the ocean while everyone jumps and gets caught by The Going Merry.

"WHOO! I LOVE YOU MERRY!" Rose runs to the figure head to hug her then flies up to the sail to blast as much wind as possible while the others steer the ship to safety and escape the buster call.


"Hey Sniper King, do you know where Usopp went?!" Luffy asks as he and Chopper search for him after they reached safety from the Buster Call and meet up with Galley-La.

Sanji whispers to Usopp in irritation. "They're asking for you 'Sniper King'."

"I can't answer now!" Usopp whispers before turning to the guys in Sniper King's mask. "Never fear! Usopp is safe! He went back first with a boat!"

Luffy and Chopper look at him in disappointment while Zoro sighs. "Why don't they recognize him as Sniper King?"

Rose shrugs. "Just let it go. When he's ready to tell them he'll do it." She leans on the rail but fell when the rail gave in and caught herself before hitting the water then suddenly the entire ship starts to fall apart.

Rose gave a soft look at the broken ship. (… So it's time huh?)

Luffy turns to Galley-La desperately. "ICE-POPS! MERRY'S IN DANGER! PLEASE DO SOMETHING! SHE'S A MEMBER OF OUR CREW TOO!"

Iceberg sighs then looks at the ship "I've never seen such an amazing ship that had the will to keep going after its limits for it's crew. But, it's time to let her rest."

The crew looks at the ship sadly, but nod in understanding as they get off the Merry one last time.

As soon as they're at a safe distance they watch Luffy get on a lifeboat close to the Merry and set the ship on fire for a viking funeral. "Merry, thank you for carrying us all this time."

As Merry began to burn memories of her life appeared in everyone's heads.

Rose widened her purple eyes at the memories that came up. (HOLY SHIT! I'M ON THE GOING MERRY!) (I-I caught it. AWESOME! THAT WAS SO MUCH FUN CAN WE DO THAT AGAIN?!) (WOW! THIS IS AN ASTRONOMERS DREAM!) Tears streamed down her face as each memory popped up in her head as she holds her necklace.

I'm sorry.

The crew froze in shock at the sound of Merry's voice.

I'm sorry I can't go on more adventures with you... But, I'm happy.

Luffy starts weeping as he yells out to Merry "WE SHOULD BE APOLOGIZING MERRY! I DROVE YOU TO AN ICEBERG! SANJI AND ZORO ALWAYS BROKE STUFF! USOPP ALWAYS TRIED TO FIX YOU, BUT HE WAS NEVER GOOD AT IT! WE'RE SORRY!"

Almost everyone in the crew was weeping at Merry's voice as she kept talking.

I was still happy with you.

Rose couldn't keep her eyes off the Merry as tears kept falling. (Merry, I wasn't with you for long and on the day we met I even added to the damage by making a hole in you. I'm sorry... You gave me a home again and for that the only thing I can say is...) "THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING MERRY! NONE OF US WILL FORGET YOU NO MATTER WHAT!"

The tears couldn't stop as the crew heard the Merry's last words. Thank you, for taking good care of me all this time.

Once Merry's funeral finished the only thing left behind was her beautiful memories with the Straw Hat Pirates.

TO BE CONTINUED
