Chapter 38

Of Strawhats and Overdue conversations

"Come on come on!" Kikue said, trying to do what she had earned her a bounty of seven hundred sixty five million and activate her awakened devil fruit power form .

Kikue screamed to the heavens for a whole minute her eyes glowed pink and

Absolutely nothing happened, Kikue fell back landing with a sigh she'd been trying to do this all afternoon and she had made so far absolutely no progress and it frustrated the crap out of her.

what if they ran into Victoria again? or someone stronger ,like if the Beast pirates tried to recruit Arianna again? or they ran into one of the other Yonko's?.

From what she heard about Red Haired Shanks the worse that would happen is a lot of drinking and a wicked hangover the next day but the others Kaido Big Mom and her 'Father' Marshall D Teach if she ran onto those pirates, or someone high up in their organization Kikue shook her fist that wasn't going to happen she was going to get stronger.

"Hey Kikue" Kuina called running over to her "Carmen says a couple of ships are heading towards the island said to come get you", Kikue raised a brow wondering what was going through her first mates mind recently she hadn't forgotten about the way she'd snapped at the piece of paper for some tournament and later she had heard her crying but didn't know how to talk to her about that.

"any particular reason?" Kikue asked, Kuina shrugged "she didn't say" Kikue stood up finding out what was going on beat standing around trying to summon her awakened form.


Kikue found Carmen looking through a spyglass Carmen handed it to her, "your gonna want to see this" she said Kikue looked through the spyglass she saw a familiar ship the Thousand Sunny sailing away from were those cakes with sails.

what was weirder about the situation the sailing cakes were firing cannon balls at the Thousand Sunny, so far the ship hadn't been hit but the Strawhats were outnumbered twelve to one it was only a matter of time before they were pinned down.

"I don't know what but your sister in law's crew really made Big Mom mad" Carmen said, "because that's the angriest bakers dozen I've ever seen" Kikue looked to Carmen "is now really the time for jokes?".

Carmen shrugged "so what are we going to do none of us are really in shape to fight a Yonko"

Kikue nodded from what the Navy had told her, Big Mom's crew was an umbrella organization of her kids their spouses and what or who was ever under said spouses command and she filled out her ranks even more with her ability to give life to anthropomorphic objects .

"we're helping the Straw Hats and she's not my sister in law" Kikue said, trying to come up with a plan the Thousand Sunny was too far to use Bloodline she'd die of bloodloss halfway there maybe she could launch herself but with what looking to Kyros "Kyros!" she called out the man came forward "how much do you trust me?".

"Despite your drunken behavior captain I trust you as far as I could throw you" Kikue nodded "as far as you could throw me good how far do you think that is exactly?",


Monkey D Luffy leapt into the air inflating his stomach to catch a pair of cannon balls breathing out said gut expelled the cannon balls and launched them through the air the recoil sent Luffy back landing on the Sunny.

Usopp stood next to him with his slingshot black kabuto firing a shot at one of the ships,,

"this is bad very bad we're running out of air and we don't have enough cola to jump away" Usopp said.

before he turned to Luffy "why'd we wait before we left we already got Sanji why'd we need to wait for her?" Luffy shrugged "cause they got married duh" Luffy said, Usopp rolled his eyes "I know that but she's one of Big Mom's daughters and more importantly she tried to kill Sanji".

Luffy shrugged "if she didn't distract Big Mom with that chocolate we all would have died I wasn't going to leave her to get killed",

Usopp was going to argue when Hamako put a hand on her shoulder "leave it alone Usopp it's just how Luffy is" .

Hamako leaned next to the snipers ear "if it's a trick and she tries to kill us then we throw her overboard and don't look back," she whispered Usopp nodded.


"Hey Hamako something's headed towards us" Sanji said, looking through a telescope clenching his fist tightly Hamako leapt over taking the telescope she figured out why Sanji was so tense.

Kikue D Chimera was flying towards them like the shot from a cannon and without her jacket you had a pretty good view of her chest,

God bless Charlotte Pudding if the three eyes girls marriage to their cook kept him from flirting with everyone that lacked a Y chromosome well that was definitely a plus in her staying on the ship.

Kikue flew past Sanji and Hamako crashing into the mast she slid down headfirst before pulling herself up "ow" she groaned, looking back the way she came "ow Kyros you didn't need to throw THAT hard!" Kikue said.

before she saw Sanji and Hamako staring at her "hi Hamako hi Blonde guy sorry can't stay gonna save your guy's butts" Kikue said, running to the railing using her bloodline to swing to the nearest of Big Mom's ships.

once landing on it Kikue went to work holding up her hands she made a red Zanbato "antibody!" she called out swinging through the giant floating pastry, taking off a great big slice the sailors on the ship ran away from her a funny sight since they were dressed like chess pieces.

but she had to wonder if their eyes were covered by their costumes how did they move around? Kikue shrugged before leaping up ,she turned her Antibody into a red rain attack she must've hit something flammable because the cake ship exploded "weird" Kikue muttered "but that just shows their weakness".

the Straw hats capitalized on Kikue's discovery, and two more ships were destroyed one was cut in half before it exploded and another was boarded by was that a giant robot Awesome.

soon seven of the ships were destroyed the remaining ones retreated swearing revenge Kikue landed on the deck of the Thousand Sunny, looking to Luffy "Kikue D Chimera" he said Kikue nodded "Monkey D Luffy" slowly Luffy held out his hand Kikue held out her own and the two shook.

his serious expression replaced by a big dumb grin on the rubber mans face "it's good to see you again",

Kikue grinned "you too".


Nami and Hue Ying had walked to the beach from training to find a party seeing the Straw Hats jolly roger she quickly deduced how it got started, Hamako had told her all about what it was like with the Straw Hats.

"Mom" Haru and Mikoto called running up to her and hugging her, Nami smiled hugging the two of them close "hey mom you should've seen what Mama did Uncle Kyros picked up and threw her like a missile".

Mikoto explained talking a mile a minute "then she went zipping around these giant sailing cakes-"

Nami raised a brow at that part, but continued paying attention to how in Mikoto's words 'Mama was all whoosh and wham and kicked everyone's asses' Nami flicked Mikoto on the forehead for swearing .

Mikoto grumbled before running off to where some kind of Tanuki in a hat was dancing with chopsticks in his nose, with Luffy and some long nosed guy Nami turned to Haru.

"Haru where exactly is Mama?" she asked, Haru pointed over his shoulder to where Kikue was talking with Raven Carmen Hamako and Nico Robin the Straw Hat's devil child Nami nodded kissing her son on the cheek.

before walking over to Kikue "so this guy's really going to give up an entire island if he loses?" her girlfriend asked,, an island Nami wondered before shaking her head she needed to focus she could find out later right now though.


Nami hugged her sister before whispering into Kikues ear words that send shivers of everyone who hears them spine ,"we need to talk" especially when it comes from your significant other.

Kikue audibly gulped before nodding compliantly following after Nami the Queens Pirate navigator looked for her other target finding her with Hatchi she whistled getting Rebecca's attention, "you here now!" Rebecca walked over nervously like a convict on death row.

Nami led the two women into Kikue's cabin closing the door behind them

"Now then?" Nami said, slowly turning to face them "where do I start-"?

Nami said pointing to Kikue "you got inappropriately drunk and slept with her", Kikue nodded not meeting her eyes "and you" Nami looked to Rebecca "were also drunk and proceeded to sleep with your captain and MY girlfriend!" Rebecca nodded looking down at the floor .

Should she keep it going or put them out of their misery's? she wondered before deciding to put them out of their misery "for the record I am not mad" Kikue looked up at Nami "your not?" Nami shook her head .

"I was at first but I've had time to simmer down" Nami said, "however" Nami glared at Kikue making her leap back in fear.

"if you ever and I mean ever sleep with a woman not part of our relationship without talking to ME first we will break up and I will ensure that you are permanetley cut off from sex with anyone are we clear?" Nami ordered.

Kikue nodded she wasn't sure how Nami was going to do it but she knew she was going to, Kikue frowned as all of her threat came to her.

"what do you mean woman in our relationship?" Kikue asked, Nami sighed "look the two of you have lived very 'sheltered' childhoods" one being essentially raised in a dungeon as a gladiator the other was grown in two years "there are plenty of people not just pirates with relationships with more than one partner.

and it's painfully clear and I stress the painfully part that you two like each other so that means Rebecca is your girlfriend and my girlfriend just like I'm the two of yours",

Nami was pretty sure they understood but it looked like their brains were short circuiting Nami smirked time for a full blown meltdown.

Nami walked over to Rebecca grabbing her by the collar pulling her in for a toe curling heart racing kiss, Nami pulled back from a stunned Rebecca giving a similar kiss to Kikue "we'll finish this when the twins are asleep" she said walking off to talk to her sister.


Back in Kikue's cabin the two were recovering from Nami's kisses "did that just happen?" Kikue asked ,Rebecca nodded touching her lips "so I'm your girlfriend now?" Kikue nodded "I think so".

"and your mine?" Kikue nodded "I'm pretty sure my brain shutdown when she kissed us" Rebecca nodded, before shouts came from outside.

"Kuina come back here with that chocolate!" a voice shouted before Kuina laughed "sorry little brother your gonna have to catch me to get any DAMN this stuff is good!".

"really let me try" Mikoto said "Holy crap this is awesome!".

"MIKOTO D CHIMERA GIVE THE STRAW HATS BACK THEIR CHOCOCOLATE!" Nami shouted "AND DON'T SWEAR!" "no it's mine I've decided to be the Queen of the chocolate and I'm not sharing".

"KIKUE GET OUT HERE!" Nami shouted "and deal with your daughter" Kikue gulped running out "I um gotta go" Rebecca nodded giving Kikue a kiss, "you mean we have to go" Kikue nodded and with her new girlfriend in tow and her old girlfriend yelling to hurry up.

Kikue came running leading the charge in chasing after, Mikoto D Chimera self proclaimed 'Queen of the Chocolate'.
