The Beings of Power

"Saceris?" The crew asked their captain who nodded,

"Yes. The Saceris is an organization of warriors and magicians that have previously exceeded human and animal limits and achieved immortality." Luffy explained as he continued, "Although the organization was formed between now and Noland's time, most of the members themselves have been born in the Void Century."

Upon hearing that second and last statement, Robin just got more excited along with the rest of the group. Luffy still had saved the best for last, or what was the worse for last;

"However, the Saceris senior members all have a dark past..." While their captain was telling the story, the crew was white as a ghost and even Luffy began to lower his head in sympathy.

The crew still was silent after learning the fact that there is a group of mysterious individuals on the moon. Still,

"Honey," Nami asked her husband, "What else you can tell us about the Saceris?"

"Well…" Luffy began and then starched his chin for a short while, "There is something I should tell you along with the background: when you manage to make a member of the Saceris fall to your knees, you will find yourself on the level of the Pirate King."

"Whoa!" The crew this time had something to say about that last statement,

"They must be invincible or something!" Chopper said with glittering eyes while Luffy chuckled but Chopper wasn't finished, "So did Gold Roger and Whitebeard fight them too because they were on the top?"

"…" Luffy was silent so the crew was wondering what their captain was thinking until, "They were one of the reasons that Gol D. Roger became the Pirate King but since Newgate never wanted to learn about Rathel at all, he never had the chance to meet them at all."

"I guess that is true." Zoro stated and the others nodded but there was one more question;

"How do you know so much about the Saceris?"

"Yes guys I should say this too," Luffy seemly happy to comply, "While you may not match a member of the Saceris in terms of strength but they were born like us so they are not emotionless killing machines. You manage to get on a member of the Saceris' good side and prove enough to gain their trust that person is more than willing to teach of he or she is allowed to by the others. That is also how I fought Tom, who defeated Zoro very easily, to a stalemate; because I know how he fights and about the oldest members."

"Tom isn't from the Void Century, right dear?" The crew turned to Nami who was the one that asked and her husband nodded,

"No he isn't. In fact, he isn't even from this world! That much I can tell you." Luffy explained that connected some dots and although there were some questions left, the crew didn't bother. That is, until Eneru came up and went on his knees confusing the crew.

*Hello everyone! This is the second time I made a short chapter but they always need to have cliffhangers to keep things exciting and just tempting to find out.*
