Robin leaned back in his chair as the turtle slowly moved forward. Behind the black haired man were two girls, their hands tied behind their backs, who occasionally made noises. Urika's eyes popped out of their sockets. She didn't want to be there. She didn't even know why she tried to jump on the turtle in the first place.

And here she was.

On the enemy's turtle.

'He took down Zora...' she gulped, 'if he's that strong...I have no chance...' She glanced over at her companion, who leaned back against the turtle's shell, who had her eyes closed. "Y-You're sleeping?!"

A chuckle leaked out his lips. "Time hasn't changed some things."

Her head slowly turned and looked at Robin's backside. "You know Zo-ro?" She didn't know which version to use, since she only found this out herself a few weeks ago. To him, the green haired girl could have gone by the name of Zoro instead of Zora; like what she did at first with the Rubberbones Pirates.

He turned around. His eyelids covered half of his deep dark blue eyes; it was as if he was staring into her soul. She wanted to swim away from this creep, to stay alive. His lips curled on one side as he turned around and gazed down at his fingers. "Let's just say we are old companions."

'Zora, how the hell do you know him?! Why do you know strange people?!' First it was Johnny and Yosaku, yet this new person comes into the picture. She slid forward on the waxed shell and jabbed the sole of her foot into Zora's side. The green haired blinked once before uttering a death threat for the person who dared to wake her.

"I'm guessing you haven't known her long," Robin assumed and chuckled as he thought of something else. "Last time that happened, she slaughtered the whole village."

Urika gulped.

He was laughing at the citizens who were killed by Zora.

She wanted to dive into the ocean. She didn't even have thoughts of taking Zora with her as well. She merely knew she needed to escape from these two mental patients, or else she would be the next head on their wall.

"Knave, your lips are moving." Zora growled with her eyes still closed.

"It seems like the tiger has awakened. Oh dear me." His voice was filled with sarcasm as if he was mocking the tied up swordswoman.

"I will turn you into shreds." She slowly rocked her body until she was sitting up once more. It was hard with her hands tied behind her back, but she managed. Her legs were crossed in front of her, the dark fabric resting on her tanned skin.

Ring

Ring

"Oh great..." the green haired girl muttered as she gazed at the horizon; where the waves ended and the sky began. This was exactly what she needed at the moment. Her shoulders slumped in the rope binds as the Den Den Mushi clicked.

Robin answered, "Yes?"

The man on the other side of the conversation spoke in short sentences, informing them of Vivi's presence and an order was given. Slow her down, including those that joined her side.

He laid the snail back on the shell. Urika's eyes widen and she bounced over to Robin's chair, "You're going after LUFFY?!"

"That is the order," the man stated with a single blink.

The dark skinned woman turned and looked at Zora, hoping for the green hair to stop Robin, but instead Zora simply lay on the sides with her eyes half closed. "You're not going to do something?"

"I'm tied up," she stated without any emotions in her voice.

"Not for long," Robin uttered with a sense of playfulness in his tone.

Zora regarded him as distrusting. "What do you mean, Asshole?"

"This order came for both of us, Ms. Halloween. It would be an excellent way to put an end to your connections to this crew." A noise came from Urika, a yelp, and Robin continued, "We will take care of this girl soon."

"I'm not working for you."

Urika screeched when she heard the words of her soon-to-be fate. "TAKE CARE?!" She didn't want to be ended here by a mad man and demonic woman. She at least wanted to see her father, even if he didn't want to see her, and adventure some more. She glanced from Zora to Robin, hoping for any signs of change in their plans.

"Maybe even sooner," the boy taunted and Urika tensed in place. He laid his hand down onto the shell and brushed a few strand pieces of hair behind his ear. "And yes, indeed. An order is an order, Ms. Halloween."

Urika could not believe any of this. She heard the stories from Savi, about the damn okama getting cut down and declaring her 'love' to the captain; which she barely believed herself. But the scars on Zora's chest prove someone did cut her down yet she still stayed on Luffy's ship.

"Zora, are you seriously a part of his group? Of Baroque Works? I thought you were a bounty hunter!" She bobbed her head in Robin's direction, "And this guy's going after our captain! You can't let him do that! What happened to your declarations? About living up to Luffy's name?"

"She joined for life," Robin answered for her without a hint of compassion in his voice. It was a simple fact of this business, once you joined; you either die in jobs or are killed off by another agent. The only way to actually quit is to destroy the operation before one could kill you.

"I'd only joined for opportunities. Nothing more, nothing less." Zora leaned her head over the side. She completely disregarded Robin's comment. "Saw nothing ahead so I quit. End of story."

"Now a new path has been cleared." One of greed, violence, robberies and whatnot. "And a whole island for the taking." It wasn't for their taking, of course, but it was the unlimited plan at the moment.

The two slowly turned to look at the agent. Her mouth moved slowly as two single words were uttered. "Vivi's island?"

Robin turned away from their gazes and looked at the island the turtle was journeying towards. It was a giant island with a river running through it. A perfect place to wait for the Rubberbones Pirates.

Her question went unanswered, but they both knew.

...

Luffy sat on his figure head and stared forward. Why was everything acting so different than last time? This was starting to rub his nerves. Urika has been taken twice, and his first mate is now gone as well. He wasn't worrying about the two at the moment; they were with Robin, who saved Luffy the first time they meant in the first world.

His head hurts.

Even now, he doesn't understand what was going on, even though he has been in this world for a few months. All he knew he went back in time to where his crew was the opposite gender.

But they changed.

Zora hid her gender, Niko had a relationship with Alvida, Urika has boobs, Savi doesn't hit him and Robin claps.

It didn't make sense.

He never remembered Robin clapping before, yet he was.

Luffy slammed his fist into the palm of his hand.

Oh yeah, the others had problems as well; like Urika getting captured.

Vivi raised her eyebrow at the captain's strange behaviors. "Luffy-san?" she called him out. His eyebrows fluttered as he glanced around; lost in his thoughts. Sweat dripped down his forehead from thinking. "Is something wrong?"

He shook his head and glanced over at Niko. "When the nex-"

"Luffy!" Niko's eyes widened at what he was staring at in front of Luffy.

"What?"

"In front of you..." Vivi mumbled under her breath as she raised her finger to point at the incoming dolphin. Luffy jumped backwards on deck as the giant sea creature dived under their ship. The water from the impact splashed at those on the deck; Niko, Vivi and Luffy. "That was...huge..."

"So that's Little Garden," the orange haired man stated as he walked up the steps. As soon as his foot touched the upper deck, he slipped down the staircase into the waiting arms of Savi. He wanted to ask the blonde how she caught him, but he could only stand back up and look at her, "Thank, Savi-chan."

The girl giggled in phase and spun around in the spot she was standing. "Anything for you~!" she uttered like a schoolgirl.

With two of their crew members taken, only four of them resigned on the ship. They had very little clue where to head to find Zora and Urika, but Little Garden was the place the Log Pose pointed to. Several large fish splashed across the surface of the water, and imminently, Luffy was stretching his arm to pull one of them in.

"The boat will tilt overboard!" Vivi squealed in a frightened tone. She raised her fingers to her lips as Luffy's arm wrapped around the fish and started pulling it toward the ship.

"Release it!" Niko repeated several times, "That will sink the Going Merry! A fish that size wi-"

When he heard about the Going Merry, his arm unraveled and retreated back. He turned his head around and looked at Niko, "It will?"

"Give me a minute," Savi stated as she stood on the railing and placed her hat forward. She jumped over the ledge and right onto the fish Luffy was pulling in. She took out one of her knives.

Slice.

Slash.

Pieces of sliced fish fell into the deck of the ship. Luffy stood there and marbled at the sight with a drool. The blonde girl landed back on deck and placed her knife to her side. "This will make for a nice meal."

Vivi and Niko looked at each other. Niko now missed Urika, his only normal crew member. While Vivi gulped at Savi's skill. She was still puzzled why the blonde girl seemed to glance her way with envy when she could perform these kinds of displays.

"I guess I spoke too soon..."

Savi used a part of the fish for the lunch box once they got onto the island. It was wrapped in cloth and packed in a backpack, along with water and a small knife. The rest of the fish was stored because they didn't buy any supplies from the other island.

When they came close to the island, they could already feel the humidity that drenched the Log Post. They changed into light clothes that would not carry them down.

Once Luffy got his lunchbox, he jumped onto the ground. "Here I go!" he shouted in excitement.

"Let me come with," the blue haired princess uttered as she hopped over the railing.

"Alright," he gave a slight shrug and strived into the forest but he didn't get too far until Niko's shouts stopped him in his tracks. "What?!" he turned around and looked at those still stationed on the ship.

"We can't just leave the ship unattended!"

"I'm not gonna stay on the ship," he stuck out his tongue.

"I should have known better…" Niko mumbled under his voice.

The blonde strolled up next to him and clapped her hands together, "I will stay on the ship~ for you Niko-san!"

Niko sighed. He jumped over the railing and joined Luffy and Vivi, leaving Savi alone. This was not exactly what he had in mind but without two of their crew members there, they didn't have much of a choice.

Before Luffy moved, he gave a long heave as if he just remembered something. "Na-Niko!" he corrected himself quickly and turned around to face the man.

The orange haired raised an eyebrow.

"Change! Everyone!"

Now everyone was raising their eyebrows at their captain. "Why…do I have to change?" the man slowly questioned. They were all confused.

"Even me?" Vivi asked.

"Cause bug bites. We all need to be covered up."

He blinked.

Luffy crossed his arms over his chest and nodded. He remembered the last time when Nami got super sick and almost close to dying. Which, he wasn't going to allow to happen again. Not when he had a choice to prevent it. "Captain's orders."

He looked over to Vivi for help but the girl was just as confused as him. Finally, he sighed and turned back to the ship. When he changed into something that covered more of his body, he rejoined their group and found that the rest of them changed as well. Every inch of their body was covered according to the captain's orders. Except for Luffy.

Savi stood on the edge of the ship and took a smoke of her cigarette. She really had nothing to do on the ship other than going back through her spices again. With a sigh, she headed into the kitchen.

The four of them, with Vivi's duck included, trotted into the forest. Luffy practically ran ahead of the both of them, swinging from one vine to the other like a monkey. The two of them watched the boy chuckle as he landed right into one of the massive trees.

Birds flew up into the sky; some of beastly sizes.

The navigator elbowed Vivi and pointed up to one of the several birds. "Just like that goldfish…"

The girl was leaning on her duck as she observed them. "Huge…"

Carue, after hearing Luffy fall onto the ground, raced to his side. Vivi tried to hold onto the duck, but her hands slipped from his handles and she fell onto the ground. With his hand reached out, Vivi pulled herself up. "Thank you," she said to Niko.

The two stood there for a moment, both with smiles, until they noticed that the captain and the duck were gone. Their pleasant smiles turned into ones of ajar mouths with 'Oh my Nimbus' lining their tongues.

"LUFFY! CAPTAIN! CAPPPPTAAIN!"

"LUFFY-SAN! CARUE-KUN!"

Their yells went unanswered into the ancient forest. Birds flew from the trees, once again, and a volcano roared. The two glanced at each other again. "Vo-Volcano?" Their eyes glanced around the forest, looking for where the noise came from, but the trees blocked their view.

Their figures shook in fear. All that they could do was stand, panting. With one shared glance between the two, they ran back where they came from. Hoping they could get to the safety of the ship.

Savi, after the others left her, scouted around the ship. Her heels kicked the rocks on the ground until she sighted creatures ahead of her. Each one she saw, each one ended on the ship, packaged and awaited to be eaten. A grin appeared on her face as she thought about Niko's being glad that they managed to resupply without losing any more.

She walked along the shore, getting closer to the opening where they came from. Her eyes glanced at the movement in the wave. She walked closer, hoping to get a peek of whatever was making that.

Green. Scales.

She smirked with the cigarette between her lips.

It looked like a fine meal to her.

The black haired man stood there with a green haired woman to his left. A meter away from them stood Urika. Her hands were tied together with a rope. One end was tied around Zora's waist, and the other end was around Robin's.

Zora was unarmed. All she had was her fists, because bringing along her swords meant she could cut Urika's ropes and freed her nakama. Such a thing that Robin thought ahead about.

Robin stopped when they came to a clearing. Urika bumped into the man, and only Zora stood there unfazed. The two fell into the clearing, and their sneaky approach failed.

In the middle of the clearing, seated a huge giant with food stuck to his beard. He slowly raised one eye at the newcomers, even sighting Zora between the trees. He laid down his goblet and leaned forward, observing each one of the humans. "Visitors? What a wonderful day then!"

Robin slowly stood up and helped Urika onto her feet, even though she resisted so. The black haired man turned and faced the giant threat while the longnose shook in her place. Zora finally stepped into the clearing, standing closer to Urika now. If things happened, maybe she could snatch the sniper and get away in time. Or at least keep Robin away from striking a deadly blow on the poor, weak, longnose girl.

"Good evening," Robin greeted politely with a snarky smile, his normal smile.

"Come on in, humans!" The giant roared with a chuckle and patted the ground around him, "Sit and drink! Last time I saw humans…was that…oh yeah, that raid on Tangis! What a good raid that was. Got my boots there, I did."

Robin obeyed and followed, crossing his legs as he sat next to the giant. Their sizes were so different. With his finger alone, he could crush Mr. 1 without a second thought.

And because Robin moved, Urika was dragged with Zora slowly walking along. Zora could not leave Mr. 1 because of the ropes as well. If she decided to escape, their ropes would pull Urika until she broke in half. A perfect plan for someone as brutally as Robin.

But, when she came closer to the giant, she couldn't help but notice the curved sword sitting next to his large campfire. It was a small thing for someone of his size to even use, but maybe he used it as a kitchen knife. Either way, if Zora could grab it in time and free herself and Urika, they could escape. But, judging the distance, it was over two meters long; the longest distance she could go from the black haired man.

She grumbled under breath and he glanced her way, with a smirk planted on his face. He turned back and introduced himself with the giant, using their old fake names. Zolo and Lobin, which made the giant laugh at how strange the names seemed.

"I'm Brogy the Red Ogre, little ones."

He nodded, figuring as much. The giant matched his bounty poster perfectly, except for the food left on his chin hair. "Does that mean…the Blue Ogre is here as well?"

"There's another giant?" Urika' eyes widened in shock.

"So you know of us already. I'm gonna guess you came for our heads? Well," he pounded the ground in front of him, "We have something to settle that will end with death. And by then, you guys won't be around. So beat it. Unless you want to share sake, then there's no other business here."

Robin shook his head and tried to play an innocent smile. "No, I only came to hear your tales. I'm an archeologist, a seeker of history."

"More like a professional assassin…" the coward uttered and quickly hid behind Zora's back. The giant seemed not to hear her.

"I could go on all year then, I followed my captain through many frets."

His lecture was interrupted by a volcano. His eyes widened as he suddenly stood up, making the others shake as the ground vibrated under them. "Gotta leave now. You may watch and drink, or leave, either one fine with me, lads." He turned away from them and followed a path, made of broken trees, to a volcano.

"This should be interesting," the assassin stated as he stood up to watch whatever was about to happen.

"Why are you here?" Zora finally opened her mouth and spoke to Mr. 1. "Isn't your mission with Rubberbone Luffy, not these giants?"

"Oh, don't worry about that, Ms. Halloween. I'm sure we will see them soon. They have a while to stay on this island, for their Log Post."

"How much is a while…?" Urika questioned.

"Maybe a year," he gave a nonchalant shrug. "Or longer."

Savi stood in front of the lone reptile. It barely noticed him. The turtle only glanced at him and went back to eating some grass that was next to him.

The one that piqued her interest was there were chairs on the turtle's back. Along with a snail and a few other creations. Without much hesitation, she stepped onto the turtle's shell, and it barely seemed to mind. She picked up one of the objects. It was an eternal post. Much like the one that Robin gave her captain.

She paused and glanced around the turtle once again.

Didn't that man escape on a turtle with two of her comrades?

Her smirk turned into a straight line. This was his turtle, yet he was nowhere to be seen. 'They are on the island… They must be somewhere then…' She, without much a second thought, tucked the post in her bundle and searched a little more around the shell when the turtle shifted backwards, away from the shore. "What?" she uttered with a little shock. "Halt. Stay. Land. Don't move." She tried to command the turtle, but he did not listen to her.

It swum back enough where it could change directions. "Bad turtle!" The blonde uttered, "Do you want me to turn you into Turtle Stew?" Which was that she was planning in the first place.

And then, during this chaos, the snail rang.

And she answered.

"Mission report. Mr. 1. What is the Rubberbones process?"

She paused before answering in a deep voice. "Taken care of."

"Is this Ms. Golden Week? This snail was supposed to be for Mr. 1."

With the facade up, she quickly changed to a normal female voice. "I'm sorry. This fell into my hands and I wanted to make sure you got a response."

"Where is Mr. 1?"

Savi wasn't quite sure how to respond. She needed a quick response though. "Mr. 1 left us for the task."

"And you guys completed the task in his place? Are all of the Rubberbones pirates and Vivi taken care of?"

"Yes."

The voice on the other end seemed glad at the response, for finally getting one, and hung up without any other questions. She sighed as she sat the snail back and looked where the turtle was taking her.

That man was here to find them. And taking two hostages, he was doing a good job at it.

And now his turtle has taken her hostage as well.

Well, somewhat. She could always jump off, but the turtle was heading around the island. She was curiously on where it was taking her, even if it was taking her into a trap.

"SAVI!" Niko shouted for what felt like the 50th time. He finally gave up and leaned against the cabin. The blonde cook was nowhere in sight, and he was starting to get worried about her. Since she was supposed to be on the ship while everyone else was on the island.

Vivi peeked out from the cabin's door, "She's been here at least. There's packaged food…so maybe she's out hunting?"

He gave a heavy sigh. Why did it seem like everyone was slowly falling apart for him? He looked into the sun, it was starting to dim against the horizon. How long have they been here? It only felt like a few hours.

The sounds echoed through the forest, and Niko turned his sights into the island. What he saw there made him gulp.

Two giants stood on top of a mountain, with trees blocking their bottom half, and weapons in their hands. Each one of them smashed their weapons against the other, but it was no use. They were equal in power levels. The weapons scratched each other, yet neither made a damaging blow to the other. Each time the weapons stuck, the sound echoed and vibrated the island. Even causing waves.

"Anchor the ship!" Niko demanded quickly. Then he remembered Vivi was the only one there, not his crew member. He shook his head when she only stood there bewildered, having zero clue how she should help. He ran past her and took a hold of the anchor, lifting it over the edge.

It dropped into the river with a thump. The water sprayed into his face.

He lifted up his finger and motioned to the rope and stake next to the ladder to climb down to the shore. Vivi blinked and then understood. She took hold of the rope and stake and went down the rope ladder. As soon as she touched the shore, she shook from the vibrations, almost falling onto the ground. Finally, she steadied herself and hammered the stake into the ground, wrapping the rope around it as tight as she could.

Niko tightened both of the ropes on deck until he nodded to himself. Each one was tight and secured.

Another rattle through the island and Vivi fell before she could climb up the ladder.

Now, he just needed to tie Vivi up before she fell again.

"YOI! BROGY! DORRY!" Luffy shouted at them. His hands were waving at the two giants. "Hey! Remember me! It's Luffy! I'm over here! Hey!" He was running around their fighting arena with his hands wiggling about. The giants seemed to give him no notice as the club brash against the other's worn out armor.

Carue was at his side, following him as he tried to get the giant's attention.

Brogy, getting the upper hand when Dorry glanced in Luffy's direction, smashed his ax down against his friend's chest, and Dorry fell backwards, landing against the broken trees. Luffy's eyes widened and ran to the giant's side, but he already stood up, brushing the attack off like everything else in this brawl.

When he stood up, Luffy was only feet away from getting crushed by the giant. The duck halted him from coming any closer. "Whoa," Luffy uttered. Last time, he didn't get to see the fight so close. Even though being this close was dangerous, he didn't really mind.

The rocks roared under his feet. His rubbery limbs jiggled as the giants clashed again. He didn't pick a side, he just shouted and cheered. The duck wasn't as cheerful. He kept budging the captain, seeing that this was a dangerous task. His beak slid under Luffy's vest and bit down.

Luffy jumped in shock, and Carue flew down the mountain. Squealing down the way and the captain twisted his head in the duck's direction. "What was that for?!"

Carue disappeared into the treeline, with a final quack, the duck was out of his sight.

Luffy scratched his head and looked around, where the incoming Brogy's foot was coming. His eyes widened and he quickly ducked out of the way, only to roll down the small mountain, following Carue.

Urika's head turned in the direction of the noise, as did the other two, and gasped when a duck appeared. The duck had scratches all over his body and broken branches twisted in his feathers.

"A duck?" Zora muttered.

The longnose blinked and finally she remembered something. That duck looked so familiar. And there was only one other duck she had seen.

It was Car-

Luffy bounced into the clearing.

Which surprised the two hostage crew members. Each one squealed his name. "Luffy!"

Robin stepped between the two of them, with the rope dragging from behind. "Rubberbones Luffy. We meet again, and so soon. What a lovely coincidence."

"Luffy," Zora grunted between her teeth. Their eyes made contact, as if in a conversation, but Luffy only ended up shaking his head. She widens her eyes at him and grunts, "Luffy," once more. She knew Robin's strength, yet Luffy ignored her thoughts of killing Robin where he stood.

"Luffy, you gotta run!" Urika cowered, "This guy is on a mission to kill you and Vivi!"

"My," Robin glanced over his shoulder at the dark skinned girl, "So many assumptions that it amuses me. And," he turned back to Luffy, "Now that she has sprouted her thoughts on the subject, what will you do next? I don't believe I have any more Eternal Posts to give you either."

If only Savi was there then his wish would be fulfilled.

Luffy ignored his question and moved around the fireplace. His eyes moved from one object to another. The duck did the same, going the opposite direction. Robin watched his process and gave a smirk when he realized what he was doing.

In front of him was a curved sword that rested against a log. Within one single second, Carue dashed forward and grabbed the sword. He dashed, handing it to Zora on the other side.

It all happened so fast.

Zora grabbed the sword and sliced the chain-like rope that held her and Urika to the black haired man.

"Tsk," the brunet uttered, nonchalantly. "Using yourself as a distraction. So much for formal drawl. Well," he glanced around, "Ms. Halloween. You have chosen, even though there wasn't supposed to be a choice, and I disagree with it. I shall give my farewell then."

"No way, Robin!" Luffy stood in front of the man. "We got business!"

"Isn't it already settled? I'm outnumbered and I have given my thoughts, so there is no other business between us at the moment."

"Join my crew."

Everyone paused as the volcano rumbled in the background.

"Seriously, Luffy?" Urika was the first to break the silence. "He's an assassin! He's out for you and Vivi! Don't let him on our ship!"

Zora dropped all emotion from her face as she stared blankly at her captain. Within a state of disbelief.

Robin couldn't help himself and clapped, chuckling as well. "You have so many surprises in store, don't you? I must decline for now, since my partner has decided to run off once more and placed me under the blast. And, Roronoa Zora," he lifted his glaze off the captain and to the swordswoman with a sword in her hand, ready to attack if the need called for it. "This will not be our last meeting, my old partner. I will even leave you a surprise."

Hands sprouted all around and he disappeared into them like a cloud. They disappeared as soon as they came.

"COME BACK HERE!" Luffy shouted through the trees. And his wish went unanswered.

"What the hell are you thinking?!"

Luffy looked at Urika, "Where would he go? Where's the turtle?"

When they got to the spot, the turtle was nowhere to be seen. All they saw before them was a girl with a paintbrush and a man with a striped shirt.

"You guys again," Luffy muttered. He was already frustrated that he couldn't stop Robin from leaving him. He almost forgot he was supposed to encounter these two. At least this was a different situation from before.

Mr. 4 glanced over at Ms. Golden Week. "If you ask me, that boy doesn't look troublesome at all." He wasn't quite sure why Mr. 0 left them with his clean up. "I will add Rubberbones Luffy to my wax-figure collection."

"Enough talking, bastards. Prepare to die." Urika declared as she brought out her crossbow and moved her goggles over her eyes.

Before Mr. 4 could attack, Luffy inflated himself to incredible size. "Try locking me in place now!"

"You think this is going to stop me?" Mr. 4 chuckled. He aimed towards Luffy's feet but the boy was quick. He hopped from the ground as soon as the candle wax was launched. Luffy was a bouncing ball at the moment. While Mr. 4 was distracted, Urika launched an attack.

Ms. Golden Week was going to have a picnic but her plans were distrubed. Why couldn't Mr. 4 just handle everything himself? She pouted as she dropped her picnic basket. She looked right at Luffy and said, "Colors Trap!"

"Oh," Luffy uttered as he started to deflate. He had a sudden wave of emotions wash over him. He didn't feel like fighting anymore. "This is just lousy. I don't even want to fight anymore. Just leave me here."

Mr. 4 gave his partner a thumbs up and went for his next attack.

"Luffy?!" Urika screeched.

Zora stood behind the little girl with a sword aimed at her throat. "You better undo that, Ms. Golden Week. Or else I'm going to take your basket."

She closed her eyes in annoyance. Mr. 4 was looking like an utter fool and now her treats were going to be taken. "Fine. I guess." She turned her powers off of Luffy. "Are you happy now?"

"That was weird," Luffy said. That emotion was now gone, but now his feet were covered in wax coating. He leaned over and smashed it with raw strength. Weird how things changed from the first time around, but it was better this way. "Oi, Urika, fire!"

"Fire?" she questioned.

He pointed at Mr. 4 who was starting to form a type of suit. "Bring it all down."

She nodded and grabbed a dart from her bag. The dart was aimed and fired at Mr. 4. Fire started to spread all around his work.

This fight was pretty much over.

Savi came face to face with the black haired man when he came to the second spot. The turtle was munching on grass in front of him and barely glanced at his master. "You!"

"You're the cook, correct?"

"Where's Okama and Longnose?!"

"Back with their captain."

She blinked and relaxed her tense form, ready to fight Robin to free her two crew members. But as soon as she heard the captain, her eyes turned into hearts. "I knew Luffy-sama would do it~! He's the greatest~!"

"So…would you please leave now that your friends are gone?"

Savi looked defended at Robin's cold remarks. "You don't want to take me hostage as well?"

"There is no reason."

"But…there's a reason for Marimo's capture?"

Robin nodded.

"And Urika's?"

"An accident."

"And...mine wouldn't be an accident then."

Robin shook his head.

Her shoulders slumped and grabbed Zora's three swords and Urika's sad weapon. "I will be going then…"

"Farewell." Their shoulders brushed and Savi went on, following the trail back to the ship.

And that night, once Luffy closed his eyes, he didn't wake when breakfast was called.

Guest1: Robin's placement within BQ Works had to be different because of gender partners. I did go back on my original decision and decided to change their ordering. Hope it's not too confusing for everyone to keep up with.
