Hope you all enjoyed the last chapter.
~Arrival~
Sabo continued dashing around the battlefield, dodging the pirate attacks as best as he could. He had earned himself a few scratches but nothing that he couldn't stand. Duck again he glanced quickly around, checking the location of everyone. Pirates were attempting to push forward, but not making a whole lot of progress.
Doflamingo was fighting with a Whitebeard pirate, or maybe puppetering was the better word. Sabo shook his head as he dodge a sword aimed at his face quickly. Glancing at the execution platform his eyes widened as he saw Garp's figure next to Ace. Sabo wondered briefly what Garp thought of this whole situation. Sabo shook his head before dodging another close attack, he had to stop being distracted.
Sabo paused as he caught some sort of yelling, looking around him for the person doing the yelling. He didn't see anyone of importance, and the yelling sounded far away. He saw someone look up and just stop and stare. Sabo risked a look up as he dodged another attack and froze along with many others that had paused their battles.
Sabo only stared at the battleship falling through the air from the wave above him. Though his attention was more on the familiar figure of his little brother falling along with many others. Sabo grit his teeth before wasting no time and shifting into his raven form and flying towards Luffy.
He heard many shouts of surprise at his sudden change and wanted to curse as he realized his cover was blown. He couldn't complain though, making sure Luffy was okay was his biggest concern. He flew towards the falling group, looking over the others quickly, eyes widening as he saw Ivankov falling as well. Nearing Luffy he wrapped his talons around Luffy's shoulder catching him as Sabo avoided the others.
The movements of dodging and the sudden new weight were really affecting his flight and he knew he would crash soon. He moved them out of the way of the ship as it hurtled towards the one place where there was no ice. As Sabo watched the ship crash into the water and the other members of Luffy's group fall in as well he felt his strength leave him.
"Crap," He gritted out as he angled himself and Luffy above the ship before he shifted back into his human form.
"Sabo?" Luffy shouted in slight shock as his brother shifted back into his human form, wondering briefly why the blonde had black hair.
"Just save us." Sabo glanced at the approaching ship.
Luffy blew in the air as they drew closer, and cushioned their fall as they reached the destroyed battleship. Sabo ignored all the yelling coming from the escapees of Impel Down as he took a moment to rest. He began moving as he noticed Luffy dashing away from his side, cursing he followed his little brother.
"Luffy," He called, attempting to stop the boy's climb to the top of the battleship.
He noticed others following them towards the top, but ignored them, eyes only on his little brother. Luffy finally came out on the top and looked around the battlefield before his eyes landed on Ace's form. Sabo climbed up next to him as Luffy shouted out in joy at finding Ace.
"Ace!" He shouted with a huge smile, "I finally found you!"
Sabo grinned at Luffy before sighing, "Luffy."
Ace only stared towards the two in shock. "Luffy! Sabo!"
Sabo noticed those on the ice staring at them in shock as the rest of their group arrived and he finally took the time to examine Luffy's partners. He recognized Jinbei and Crocodile, and he received a nod of recognition from Ivankov. The clown he didn't recognize at all, but he had to be strong to be part of this group, or so Sabo hoped.
"Garp! Your family again!" Sengoku shouted at the vice-admiral.
Garp was staring at them in shock. "Luffy! Sabo!"
Sabo laughed nervously at Garp. "He's going to kill us now."
Sengoku watched them. "So this is your answer, is it, Jinbei?"
"Indeed! I resign as a Shichibukai!" Jinbei shouted at the Fleet Admiral.
Sabo saw movement from the corner of his eyes as he heard Ivankov a moment later question the presence of one of their group. He head shouts of someone attacking Whitebeard and turned to see Crocodile aiming for Whitebeard's head. Sabo was getting ready to shift into his raven form to save the man when Luffy smacked the sand-sand man away.
Sabo's feelings of being impressed soon vanished as he watched Luffy crouch down, preparing to get into the battle. Like the many other spectators he watched in shock as Luffy spoke on equal terms with Whitebeard about being Pirate King and saving Ace. Sabo wasn't really surprised that Luffy would do this, it was still surprising seeing it happen though in the middle of a war.
Sabo transformed into a raven and flew closer to the two captains, listening as Luffy relayed the execution plans to Whitebeard. Sabo glanced at Sengoku, those stupid marines couldn't even keep schedules or play fair. They had never planned to give them a chance to get to Ace. Sabo watched Luffy jump to the ice and followed him, landing in human form before running after his brother.
Sabo grit his teeth as he followed Luffy, seeing many people aiming at them openly now. Kizaru launched a beam at them and Sabo pushed off the ground, spreading his wings out to hold himself in the air as Luffy was death winked out of the way by Ivankov. The blast resulting from the beam was different then Sabo was expecting. Glancing around he found Kuma launching beams towards them, he grit his teeth.
"Sabo-boy, stick with Luffy." Ivankov moved stopped dodging the beams.
"You got him?"
Ivankov nodded. "I'll get through to Kuma."
Sabo nodded before taking off after Luffy, watching his brother dodge the attacks of numerous marines. Sabo reached Luffy as zombies surrounded the straw-hat. Luffy grit his teeth as he stared up at Moria. Sabo stared at the ever growing army of zombies, who showed just as much tenacity as the marines. Luffy and him began fighting their way through the marine zombies, dodging the attacks as best as they could.
"Stay away!" Ace shouted all of a sudden.
"Huh?" Luffy looked confused as he punched an enemy.
Sabo grit his teeth as he punched an enemy aiming for Luffy as Ace continued shouting, "Sabo! Luffy! You two should know better! I have my own adventures and my own nakama! You shouldn't bud in!"
Sabo glanced at Ace for a second. "Ace."
"You two are such weaklings! You think I'll forgive someone like you for rescuing me? It's humiliating. Go home you two! Why are you even here?"
"We're your little brothers!" Luffy shouted.
Sabo glared up at Ace. "So just wait for us you idiot!"
"We don't care about the rules of pirates!" They shouted together.
Sabo continued pushing forward, ignoring the cries of surprise from those around them. He heard many asking how they could be Ace's brothers. Moria sent his zombies after them, not fazed by their petty arguments with Ace. Water rushed towards the zombies, knocking them all over as it plowed into them right before Sabo had clashed with the first one.
"Straw-hat is another danger for the future. Not only was he raised with Ace but he is also the son of the Revolutionary leader, Dragon!" Sengoku announced annoyed at Luffy's appearance.
Sabo laughed as he heard that. "Well no use hiding it now."
"The other brother of Ace, Sabo, is a high ranking officer of the revolutionary army." Sengoku continued. "Do not let them get past."
Sabo sighed. "My cover is definitely blown."
