Chapter 36 - A womans revenge
'Red Hair, is that you?'
Shanks was in his cabin where he kept the den-den-mushis.
'Since when do other people even bother to call you?' He laughed. It was just too easy to wind him up. The other man answered with a low growl.
'So how have you been, Hawkeye? I found a really nice vacation spot, if you wanna drop by.' He waited for a response of the other man, none came.
'It's alright, are the bad bad marines keeping you busy?' He had to turn this conversation around. He didn't call just for shits and giggles after all. 'You wouldn't know of a certain marine captain in the East Blue, would you?'
'What, did he steal your crappy hat?'
No matter what, Mihawk Hawkeye would deny it. But the truth remained that Shanks was one of the selected few people that could turn his serious demeanor into childish babble. Knowing that, Shanks didn't even flinch when he insulted his straw hat.
'No, he beat a defenseless woman to pieces. By chance the very same woman will soon come with me back to the New World. But first there needs to be one marine less in the East Blue. So do you know of a Captain Frinks? Or can you get me some information?'
Mihawk had gotten quiet after that. Shanks knew the man well but still wasn't sure if he would be of help.
'I can get a practice lesson in for you, Red Hair, maybe you won't remain such a crappy swordsman.' Shanks smirked, Hawkeye was in a good mood today.
Sirja had yet to tell Shanks about her own little idea on how to get back at Garp. They had tucked in both Luffy and Ace and where about to enter their room.
Sirja knew if she didn't start now she would be naked underneath him before she even got to say a word.
'Shanks...' She couldn't quite suppress her eagerness for sweet revenge.
He turned around and found her grinning.
'This morning I came up with a great idea...'
She took his hand and pulled him inside. Shanks listened carefully, a grin appearing on his face. It got even wider when the whole extend what she was about to do came to him. He wondered if Sirja knew of all the consequences her actions would set in motion. She couldn't, because part of it would be up to him.
Sirja had finished taking and looked at him expectantly. Shanks rose smirking and pulled her to their bed. 'Garp will lose it when he finds out. By then I will have you all save and secure.'
