Saiyans on the Grandline
"Do they even remember what we're doing here?" Kaen questioned as he and Mina stayed behind, with the others running into Sabaody Park.
"I don't think they do." Mina said leaning against the big bubble bike with Kaen. "At least Eri's having fun."
"Do you think Brook knows what a theme park ride is?"
"I don't think so."
"Should we tell him?"
"Nah, let's let him find out himself." Mina smiled. "An' while we're waiting, help me with a new hair style?"
"Mina, you're a Saiyan. Your hair is gonna remain that length unless you cut it, then it's gonna remain shorter, not to mention your hair won't be easy to style because it will try to retain its natural shape." Kaen said.
Mina just smiled, and pulled out what looked like a butterfly knife from her Duplication Void, and spun it over her thumb and in her fingers with a zen roll, revealing it was a comb.
"That's why I got this." Mina smiled. "Athena made it for me. She infused it with a piece of material that has a quirk that can make hair grow thicker, and longer to any length I want so long as I keep combing it through my hair, and makes it malleable enough to style any way I want, for at least half an hour."
"When did she give you that?" Kaen asked.
"Before the trip to I-Island. I asked her about the hair thing, and how she was able to change her hair style all the time if she was a Saiyan, and she showed me her comb. Guess she made me a duplicate with her own Duplication Void." Mina explained.
"Alright, come here." Kaen sighed with a smile, as Mina moved in front of him, and sat on his lap. "Come on Mina, people are staring."
"So? I don't care, it's not like we're boning in public." Mina said. "We should be comfortable with this sort of thing, since we are husband and wife."
"Fine." Kaen chuckled, running the comb through her hair, making it grow longer. "When do you want me to stop?"
"Around my mid back would be sufficient." Mina smiled. "Then I'd like for you to braid my side bangs, and connect them in the back, then from the base of that braid, I want you to braid the rest of my hair in a four piece braid."
"So a partial circlet braid with a connecting princess braid, got it." Kaen said.
"You know the style I'm talking about?" Mina asked.
"I do, I've seen my sister attempt it a few times, but she always failed, miserably." Kaen chuckled.
"But you know how to make it?" Mina questioned.
"I know what the finished product looks like, from her showing me the examples she used to attempt the style herself."
"Guess it kinda helps to have a twin sister huh?"
"Yes and no." Kaen exasperated with exaggeration.
"Don't be like that, your sister is an angel." Mina said.
"She also happens to be your sister now to." Kaen stated.
"True, but I have more in common to bond with her then you."
"Touche."
"Mama, Papa, look what Hachi won me at the ball throwing stand." Eri smiled, holding a giant teddy white tiger, that was as big as her.
"Oh nice Eri. Let me put it away for you, so you don't lose it." Mina smiled, taking the stuffed toy, and putting it in her Duplication Void.
"Hold still Mina, do you want me to do this right or not?" Kaen asked, putting the comb in his pocket.
"Right, sorry Hun." Mina said. "But be careful and don't make the braids too tight."
"Oh, can you do my hair next Papa?" Eri asked.
"Sure thing kitten." Kaen said, braiding the sides. "But I'll have to make your hair a little longer to do it."
"Okay." Eri smiled.
"Mina, I need some bobby pins, or a hair tie or something to keep the side braids in place while I do the rest." Kaen stated.
"I got ya covered." Mina said, holding up a hair tie with an emerald in the center.
"Thank you." Kaen said, taking the hair tie.
"Hold on a second babe. Eri, can you reach into my purse and get some bobby pins?" Mina asked, pointing to her purse, which was just out of reach.
"Okay Mama." Eri said,
"You have your purse?" Kaen questioned. "Where were you hiding it?"
"In my suitcase for our Disney trip, duh." Mina said.
"Ugh, women." Kaen sighed. "I mean, where have you been hiding it since we got here?"
"I kept it tucked away in my Duplication Void." Mina said as Eri came back with the bobby pins. "An' that hair tie, is one of seven collectibles."
"Really? The seven Chaos Emeralds from Sonic?" Kaen asked.
"That's the Master Emerald hair tie. The other seven gems are smaller and different colors." Mina stated.
"Isn't the Master Emerald the same color as one of the seven Chaos?" Kaen questioned.
"No, the Master Emerald is a darker shade of green." Mina stated.
"Do you want me to give you the hedgehog style?" Kaen asked.
"No." Mina said, as Kaen laughed. "I might be a fan of Sonic the Hedgehog, but I'm not some obsessed freak like Amy Rose."
"An' done." Kaen said, finishing the style with the hair tie at the end.
"Thanks babe." Mina smiled, getting up and grabbing her purse. "I'm gonna go and have some fun myself."
"Don't get lost." Kaen said, as he sat Eri up on the bubble of the bubble bike. "Alright Kitten, what style do you want me to give you?"
"I want a style, that Aunty Athena said women get in that one prison show we watched together." Eri said.
"Cornrow braid, got it." Kaen sighed. 'I really wish Athena didn't expose Eri to certain shows.'
~The Rest of the Group~
"Hey everyone, wait up for me." Mina called to them, running to the rest of the crew.
"Welcome to the fun Mina." Luffy smiled.
"Did you do something with your hair? It looks lovely, but how did you get it to grow so long?" Brook asked.
"A Quirk infused comb." Mina said. "So, you think it looks good? Kaen did a pretty good job I must say."
"Nyu, Kaen did that? I'm impressed." Hachi said.
"I know, right?" Mina smiled. "I had no idea my husband was so talented with styling hair. But he's so good, he even blended the braids perfectly. Oh, and by the way Hachi, thanks for winning that stuffed toy for Eri."
"It was no problem. Speaking of, where is Eri?" Hachi inquired.
"She's having Kaen do her hair next." Mina said. "So, how'd you all like the roller coaster?"
"It was terrifying. The roller coaster is nothing but a big death trap." Brook said.
"For you maybe. It's actually quite fun for some people." Mina said. "So what rides have you done so far?"
"We've done the roller coaster, the merry go round, and we did the big drop, we were just about to go on the tea cups." Camie stated.
"Sounds like fun. Let's go."
As the group headed for the rides, Mina could feel a dark and malicious presence following them from afar, with their main focus being her and Camie.
'Someone must have figured out what Camie and I are. Most likely one of those bounty hunters we fought before getting to Shakky's. It pisses me off that we're being targeted for human trafficking. Well, maybe just this once, I'll actually give those bastards what they want, and let Kaen teach them a lesson.' Mina thought.
~Later Kaen and Eri~
"An' there you go Kitten." Kaen said. "Sorry that you had to miss out on the rest of the theme park."
"It's okay Papa." Eri smiled looking up from her ice cream cone, to look at Kaen as he combed through her hair. "I love what you've done with my hair. It's amazing."
"KAEN."
Kaen looked up, and saw Luffy and the others rushing towards them, with concerned, and agitated looks on their faces. But there was something wrong with what he was seeing, and he knew what, or who was missing.
"What happened? Where's Camie?" Kaen asked.
"It's not just Camie." Hachi said. "Mina's gone to."
"What?"
"There's countless human shops on the island." Pappagu said. "Problem is, we don't know if they were taken straight to the auction house, or to one of the smaller shops. We don't even know which grove to start looking at."
"Damn it." Kaen growled, pulling out his Scouter.
"Kaen, what are you doing? Are you gonna track her location by triangulating the signal from her Scouter?" Chopper asked.
"That, and I'm calling in someone who knows where the auction house actually is." Kaen stated. "I'm…"
Before Kaen could finish what he was saying, the bubble bike took off, speeding away with three riders vanishing into the distance, screaming out angrily.
"Chopper?" Kaen asked.
"Luffy, Hachi, and Pappagu took off to find Camie and Mina." Chopper said.
"Just great." He sighed. "Contact the others that are still on the Sunny."
"Papa, is Mama going to be okay?" Eri asked, hugging Kaen with tears of fear and anxiety in her eyes.
"She's gonna be alright Kitten. Don't you worry. I'm calling in for help."
"Who could you call that would be of help in this situation?" Chopper asked.
"Someone who used to be the leader of a gang of kidnappers himself remember? I'm calling in the Flying Fish Riders."
~Auction House~
"Oh, it's Peterman. You have something you wanna auction off?" The teller at the trading desk questioned.
"Yeah, if there's still time to submit an entry." Peterman said, two bags over his shoulders.
"Sure, but we got a giant today, your entry won't fetch a very high price unless it's really something." The man said as Peterman put the bags down.
Removing the strings keeping the bags tied, Peterman revealed Camie and Mina were in the bags, with their arms tied, and mouths taped shut.
"Whoa, it's a mermaid." The auctioneer said. "But… who's this girl, a famous pirate or something?"
"She's a Saiyan." Peterman said.
"Holy crap. You gotta be pulling my leg, a Saiyan?"
"It's the real deal."
"I can't believe it. A Mermaid and a Saiyan girl. Where the hell did you catch those?"
"That's a secret."
"Forget the giant, this is more like it. I'll contact you about your portion of the payment when they sell."
"Alright, I'm expecting some good results this time." Peterman said, heading out the door.
"Don't worry, you're gonna make a killing, they'll love these two."
"Come by in a few hours, and we'll have your money ready."
"Looking forward to it." Peterman said with a smile.
~Kaen~
"I got the signal." Kaen said. "Grove8."
"That's one of the Grove's we were attacked at by bounty hunters." Chopper said.
"Eri, you stay right here with Brook and Chopper." Kaen said. "Papa's gotta go to work, and it's not the type of work you should witness."
"Okay Papa." Eri said, holding one of Chopper's hooves.
"Don't worry Kaen, we'll be sure to keep her safe." Brook said.
"Be sure that you do. The Flying Fish Riders will be here to pick you up shortly. Just wait here until then." Kaen said, before his body was enveloped with a milky white aura, and he went flying through the air.
~Auction House Front Entrance~
"Oh, Saint Roswall, and Saint Shalria." One of the auction house keepers said.
"Of course." Roswall said.
"Could we refrain from kneeling in the auction house sir? It would make our jobs very difficult."
"That will be fine. We don't want a boring auction."
"That's very generous of you. Please, use the VIP seats."
Roswall and Shalria walked past the auction house worker, hardly needing to push through the doors as they opened, while Shalria was annoyed by one small detail that should have been corrected before they left Mariejois.
"My brother's certainly taking his time getting here."
"That's what the fool gets for riding a sluggish human. If you're going to ride something, make it a Fishman. They might be filthy creatures, but they're ten times stronger then humans." Roswall stated.
As they walked into the auction house, a group of pirates weren't bowing to them, and were just watching the rich arrogant fools as they walked by.
"Celestial Dragons, Slaves, human shoppes." The red haired pirate said.
"That pirate." One of the auction goers said.
"Yeah, that's Captain Kid, from the South Blue."
"When the people in power act this cruel and greedy, it makes common criminals like us, look pretty humane by comparison, now doesn't it?" Kid questioned. "When scum like that are the ones writing the rules, it creates more scum. They hate pirates, but they're the ones who created pirates. At least we're as endearing as we are mean, right, Killer? Seems fair."
"Agreed." Kid's second in command said.
"If we see someone interesting, you think we should try and buy 'em?" Kid questioned.
"Hey boss take a look." One of his subordinates said. "See that?"
Kid looked to where his subordinate was directing him, and his eyes landed on a peculiar sight.
"Well I'll be damned." Kid smirked. "That's Trafalgar Law, from the North Blue, the Surgeon of Death. Worth 200,000,000. I've heard some pretty ugly rumors about him."
~Auction House Storage~
"Alright you two, listen up." One of the auction house workers said, addressing Camie and Mina. "This is a literal once in a life time opportunity for purchasing both a Saiyan and a Mermaid, not to mention the fact you're both female. So to double the profits, we'll be selling you both in one set, combining the starting bids for the two of you into one. Got it?"
"You won't be able to keep me here forever." Mina growled.
"Of course not. You're gonna be out a here before the end of the day when someone purchases you." The man laughed as he walked away.
"Damn, how did it end up like this?" Mina questioned. "I didn't think he'd take us straight to the Auction House. I'm sorry I got you dragged into this Camie."
"No Mina it's fine. I know you were only trying to do what's best." Camie said.
"I seriously didn't think this plan through." Mina sighed.
"An' what plan was that young lady?"
Mina and Camie looked to who had spoken up, and saw a silver haired man wearing a robe, with glasses, and a scar over his right eye.
"Hey wait a second. Aren't you the one who used that strange power to knock out that Disco guy when he was trying to put a collar on Camie?"
"I am. But there's no need to concern yourself with that." The man said. "Though I am curious about this little plan of yours you were talking about."
"Well, I thought that if our kidnapper took me to his hide out, my husband would be able to track me and put an end to his kidnapping spree. But he took my Scouter, like I had planned, while he left me here, which wasn't part of the plan. Now Kaen won't be able to find our location unless he beats it out of Peterman or tracks my Ki, which for some reason, this collar is preventing me from emitting, I can't even produce any kind of strong acid to melt the lock with my Quirk." Mina stated.
"Ah I see. The old bait and switch tactic." The man said. "Well, this could be a golden opportunity as well."
"How so?" Camie inquired.
"Yeah, I don't follow either." Mina stated.
"Well think about it, if your husband is able to find you, and if he's that strong, then he could very well, destroy the auction house, and put the hurt on the man running it by cutting off a source of his financial income."
"Hey that's right. Slave trading would go down by a large percent since the auction house is where it mainly happens." Camie said.
"I don't know. Kaen's strong, but even a Saiyan has their limits." Mina said.
"So I didn't just imagine it earlier. The worker did call you a Saiyan."
"Yeah, and?"
"I take it that means your husband is also a Saiyan?"
"Our daughter to. What's your point, what are you getting at?" Mina asked.
"Oh pardon me. Allow me to introduce myself." The man said. "My name is Silvers Rayleigh."
~Peterman's Hideout Grove8~
"That was too easy." Peterman said, spinning Mina's Scouter in his hands. "Now, we just gotta sit back, and wait for the money to start rolling in."
"You sure it was okay to keep those Peterman?" One of the bounty hunters asked. "They came off a Saiyan, we have no clue what they could be capable of."
"Relax would you? It's just a pair of sunglasses. They ain't gonna do jack shit." Peterman said, gripping them in his hand, pressing the red button on accident, activating them with the microphone extending.
"That doesn't sound like nothing to me."
The other bounty hunters huddled around Peterman, and looked at the glasses, as he turned them downwards, and they saw a red blip on the lenses, and it looked like the blip was moving pretty fast, almost like the lenses were tracking a moving object.
"What is that?"
"I don't know. But whatever it is…" Peterman said, noticing that the blip was traveling to a red triangle. "I think it's on its way for these."
Before anyone could do anything to get rid of the Scouter, one of the walls to their hideout burst open with an explosion, before Kaen stepped in, as if he'd been walking on air, and marched right for where Peterman landed from the explosion. The kidnapper looked up at Kaen in fear as fire was spewing from his back, with his hands turning into ice, before he stomped on Peterman's chest.
"Where are they?" Kaen questioned.
"Who? I don't know what you're talking about." Peterman gasped.
"You know exactly who I'm talking about." Kaen said, picking up what remained of the Scouter. "I couldn't feel my wife's Ki in you base, so you obviously took her, and our Mermaid friend to a human shop or an auction house somewhere. I wanna know where."
"Please, I don't know what you're talking about, I just found those sunglasses on the ground and took them home." Peterman said, trying to grab a weapon stealthily, before his hand was blown to pieces by a Ki blast, causing him to scream in pain and agony.
"Try that again, and it'll be your head next." Kaen growled. "Where did you take, my wife and Mermaid friend?"
~Auction~
"Alright ladies and gentlemen, thank you for joining us. The moment you've been waiting for has finally arrived. The monthly great human auction of Grove #1 is about to begin. An' here comes everyone's favorite MC. Here he is, the walking super bizzar himself, Mr. Disco." The announcer said, causing the crowd to cheer.
"Thank you, thank you everyone." Mr. Disco said, coming out to gr.
~Duval~
"Calling all units, calling all units. I just received some news from the Young Master. Head to Grove1, I repeat head to Grove1, and someone read off the auction schedule." Duval ordered.
"It started at 4, it's been going for thirty minutes now." One of his men replied.
"Then there shouldn't be anything to worry about. The Mermaid and Young Master's wife won't be auctioned off until the second half, so we should make it in time before that happens." Duval said.
"An' if Kaen get there before us…" Franky's voice came from the snail. "Then we'd just wind up appearing at a pile of rubble."
~Outside the Auction House~
"Alright you two, this is it." One of the riders said, stopping at Grove1 with Eri and Chopper on his fish.
"Thank you so much sir." Eri said, hopping off the fish.
"We appreciate your help." Chopper said, hopping off next.
"Hey, Chopper, Eri."
The duo looked over to see Sanji coming towards them on another of the riders fish.
"It's Sanji." Chopper said.
"Sanji, Chopper, Eri."
The four looked up to see Nami coming in on a flying fish that was still air born.
"Hey, we made it." Hachi called out.
"Camie." Pappagu cried.
~A bit Later~
"This is it, I finally made it." Franky said, running to the doors of the auction house, just as another slave was sold.
"What the hell do you mean you can't give them back?" Sanji's voice echoed from the side entrance. "You have no right to sell Camie and Mina."
"You're the one who's in the wrong here friend." The auction house worker said. "Keep harassing us and we'll have to sue you for, obstruction of business."
"Business my ass you heartless shit. This isn't a business, you're just profiting off the misery of the weak." Sanji growled, grabbing the man's shirt.
"Hmm, a lawless pirate like you has no right to lecture me on morality."
"Then what about me?" Kaen questioned, standing behind the man.
The auction house worker froze as Sanji removed himself from the scene, before turning around, just as the dust kicked up by Kaen's sudden appearance, settled down with Kaen grabbing the man by his throat.
"The Saiyan woman you have in there, is my wife." Kaen growled. "Now unless you want your neck snapped like a toothpick, I suggest you hand her over."
"I-I can't do that. If you want her back, you're gonna have to participate in the auction like all the other patrons." The man gasped.
"Papa?" Eri questioned, having never seen this side of Kaen.
"I don't make the rules. You could tear this place apart yes, but we have Celestial Dragons taking part in the auction, so if you want your wife and friend back, without drawing the attention of the Navy, that's what you're gonna have to do."
"Fine." Kaen glared, dropping the man before stomping on his face and breaking his nose. "But I don't care if there are Celestial Dragons in there. If they get in the way, I will end them without hesitation."
"Something's different about him." Nami said as Kaen walked off.
"You think? He's gone off the deep end for sure." Sanji said.
"No, it's not that." Eri said.
"What do you mean?" Chopper asked as they followed Kaen.
"Papa is still himself but… he's bottled up too much rage, too much anger." Eri said. "If this keeps going on, then he's gonna explode like a volcano."
"An' without a healthy outlet for all that pent up aggression. It will happen a lot sooner."
"But that's not all, is it?" Franky questioned.
"No, I don't think it is." Sanji said. "The world he grew up on, was one of discipline, honor and heroics. Being on a world filled with pirates, and joining a pirate crew, is obviously having some sort of effect on his mental state."
"He could subconsciously be allowing his true Saiyan Nature to leak out in small amounts when he's angry." Chopper said. "That would make the most sense for what's going on with him."
Entering the auction house, the group of pirates, were standing in the back with Nami having grabbed a sign to wave up and signal for their offer. Kaen's presence didn't go unnoticed by the Kid Pirates, and when Kid saw his tail, he became intrigued by Kaen being there.
"An' you are all in luck. We've got two extra special items for sale today." Mr. Disco said. "I pray from the bottom of my heart, that each and every one of you will leave with the slave of your choice. But enough talk. Let's keep this auction going."
"This is just sick and wrong." Kaen growled.
"I know, but we can't cause a scene. Not now at least." Nami said. "We've got at least two hundred million berries worth of treasure back on the ship. If we're lucky, we can divide that up evenly to get both Camie and Athena back. So what's the starting market price for Mermaids?"
"That's more than enough, but there's no way I'd be able to pay any of that back." Hachi said.
"What are you talking about? Are you Camie's legal guardian or something?"
"No, that's not what I meant."
"Camie's our friend, so we're gonna do whatever it takes to get her back. No matter how much it costs." Nami said. "Anyone got a problem with that?"
"No of course not. Money's the last thing I care about." Chopper said.
"I like it when she's spicy, but I love when Nami's sweet." Sanji said, hearts in his eyes.
As the auction continued on, the pirates began to get a little antsy, as the slaves being auctioned off went one after the other.
"Things are really starting to heat up here at the Great Human Auction folks. Up next, we got a deal you simply cannot turn down." Mr. Disco said as a scantily dressed young girl with lavender hair was brought out onto the stage. "Entry fifteen is a beautiful human woman. Just look at those curves. She's a twenty year old dancer named Pasha. Just imagine, waking up to the sight of this beguiling vision, every day. Such transcendent beauty is sure to convince you, you've died and gone to heaven."
"800,000."
"An' we're already off to a bid of 800,000 for the enchanting Pasha." Mr. Disco said.
"1,000,000."
"1,500,000."
"3,000,000."
"An' the bidding has jumped straight to 3,000,000 berries. Do we have any other bids?" Mr. Disco asked.
Kaen made a mental note to find Pasha, and set her free after this was all over.
"This is too much. The way they're treating these beautiful ladies, is making me sick." Sanji said.
"We will get Camie back. I refuse to let her get taken by one of these monsters." Pappagu said.
Before anyone could say anything else, the doors opened behind them, allowing for a third Celestial Dragon to come into the auction house. But his presence didn't go unnoticed by the others either.
"A Celestial Dragon." Chopper said.
"Another one huh? A lot of Nobility here." Nami said.
"An' a Navy Admiral will come running to the rescue, if we defy one of them." Sanji said.
"Not good. I saw this one earlier when I went search for Mina. His name is Saint Charloss. An' he looks like the very definition of inbreeding." Kaen growled as the Celestial Dragon went to sit with his sister and father.
"Then we should stay on guard around him."
"Mmhmm, good both have been prepped?" Mr. Disco said, as he was notified of the prep work for Camie and Mina. "Ladies and Gentlemen. We have a rare opportunity. Both our rare items are now on sale, one of them so rare, it makes hunting for Mermaids as easy shooting fish in a barrel." That got the crowd cheering as a large glass bowl, and a metal cage covered in a large curtain were wheeled out. "These items are far too amazing to reveal all at once, so we'll take it in steps. Observe the silhouettes." Mr. Disco said.
Lights turned on behind the curtained bowl and cage, revealing the shadows of two figures beneath, causing the crowd to go wild.
"Mama, Camie." Eri gasped.
"Did that wet, your appetite? Well try not to droll folks, because here comes the real deal." Mr. Disco said. "It's time for the unveiling. Feast your eyes on this."
The curtain was removed showing both Camie and Mina, with Camie swimming around in the fish bowl, and Mina sitting in the cage, reduced to wear nothing but the bottom half of a bikini, leaving her chest totally exposed for all to see.
"All the way from Fishman Island, the mermaid Camie." Mr. Disco announced. "An' for those of you interested, the second girl isn't a Mermaid, and she's not a Devil Fruit eater either. She is a genuine Saiyan female, ready for your pleasure."
"CAMIE." Hachi shouted. "They're selling her, do something."
"I'm on it. We'll get her back no problem. 200,000,000 is gonna be more than enough." Nami said, preparing to raise her sign, but she was beaten to the punch.
"25,000,000,000." Saint Charloss called out. "I bid 25,000,000,000."
The entire auditorium went silent as they all stared at the VIP's booth, shocked that he would go straight to that much money before the starting bid began. Nami even dropped her bidding sign as she'd been out done in bidding.
"Not good." Nami said as Kaen began shaking with anger, while Camie started struggling inside the tank, with Mina trying to break out of the cage.
"Camie." Pappagu cried falling to his starfish knees.
"Can't we do anything about this?" Chopper questioned. "I mean there's gotta be something right? Come on Sanji what's the plan, Nami? There isn't any time left. If we don't do something now, they'll take them away, and we'll never see either of them again."
"This is bad, we should have known we couldn't compete with them." Sanji said. "Those creeps throw money around like it grows on trees. This just isn't our game."
"Something's definitely wrong. Mina should have been able to free herself and Camie with her Quirk, and removed those collars from their necks. So why hasn't she done that?" Kaen questioned.
"The collars explode if anyone tries to tamper with them." Nami stated.
"Nyu! I won't let this happen." Hachi growled angrily. "I'll have to help her escape to the ocean by force."
"Don't be stupid." Pappagu said. "What about the collar, do you want her head to explode?"
"Well then I… I guess I'm just gonna have to find a way to get the key to."
"An' that's it, times up." The Auctioneer said. "The bidding has ended ladies and gentlemen. Today's showcased items, the young Mermaid Camie, and the Saiyan woman, goes to the World Noble Saint Charloss, for his bid of… 25,000,000,000 Berries."
Kaen's eyes widened when he heard the sound of Luffy's screaming, before he pushed everyone in his group out of the way, just before Luffy and Zoro crashed through the doors, on a flying fish, while destroying some of the bleachers and sending some patrons flying.
"What is all that racket?" Saint Roswall questioned.
Taking advantage of the chaos, Kaen ran to the top of the stairs and ran down them with Eri following close behind as they ran for the stage.
"Mina, Camie." Kaen called out.
"Camie, Mina, I've been looking for you everywhere." Luffy called out, as he followed the Saiyan Father/Daughter duo.
"Wait, stop Straw Hat." Hachi called out. "What do you think you're doing?"
"What's it look like, I'm helping Kaen to save Camie, and his wife." Luffy declared angrily.
"They're both wearing explosive collars, they'll never make it out alive." Hachi said. "Plus the Celestial Dragons are here, don't do anything rash. Kaen is one thing, he's a Saiyan, but you're another matter entirely."
"See if I care." Luffy declared.
"Did he just call him, Straw Hat?" One of the patrons asked.
"An' did Straw Hat say that the Saiyan girl was that young brute's wife? Wouldn't that make him a Saiyan as well?"
"You're damn right I'm a Saiyan." Kaen shouted. "An' I'm here, to take back the freedom of every person who's been forced to enslavement in this God Forsaken Place."
"Straw Hat stop this." Hachi called out, his other four arms throwing off his coat, and grabbing Luffy in a binding hold.
Just as Kaen jumped up onto the stage, he froze when he heard the sound of a gunshot being fired, and turned around just in time to see Hachi falling down the stairs, blood spilling from his gunshot wound.
Standing up on the steps, was Saint Charloss with a smile on his face, and a smoking gun in his hand.
"I did it. I shot it. I took down a Fishman." Charloss cheered dancing on the steps.
"Hachi no." Eri cried out running for the downed Fishman.
"Eri… No." Hachi wheezed.
"Well now, if that man she was following was a Saiyan, then it would most likely mean she's a Saiyan." Charloss said raising his gun to Eri. "Might as well collect them all and have a complete set."
"ERI." Kaen shouted, before the sound of a second gun shot thundered through the auction hall, and Eri fell forward, blood pouring out of her shoulder.
Everyone in the auction hall stood frozen as the reality of what Saint Charloss had done, sank into their brains. He'd shot a Fishman, and a Saiyan child, while a battle capable Saiyan stood right on the stage.
"Eri no." Camie cried from inside the fishbowl.
"Eri." Mina gasped, tears in her eyes as she saw her daughter bleeding out on the stairs.
Gritting his teeth in anger, Kaen slammed his hand on the top of Mina's cage, tearing the roof off it before throwing it at Disco, severing his head from his body.
"How dare you. That's my property you're trying to steal." Saint Charloss said raising his gun to Kaen.
Releasing his power, the entire building started to shake as Kaen looked up at the pompous man-brat, as he aimed his gun at the Saiyan man, with an annoyed smirk.
"I'm gonna kill you, for hurting my daughter." He growled, as rubble began to defy gravity.
"Please, I'd like to see you just try and touch me, you freak." Charloss said with a cocky grin.
Before Charloss could fire a shot, Kaen vanished from the stage, shocking the black haired man-child, before he was suddenly sent flying from the ground, into the air, as Kaen hit him in the face, popping his bubble mask, and rendering him unconscious, before the Saiyan appeared above the Celestial Dragon, and hit him with a spinning axe kick to the neck, sending him down into the seats, kicking up dust.
"Kame-hame-HAAAA." Kaen called out, firing a Kamehameha Wave at Charloss, turning his body to ash, leaving only a severed hand as proof that it was him.
"You bastard. Do you have any idea who we are?" Shalria questioned, before she lurched forward as a spear of ice, originating from Kaen's foot, pierced her stomach.
"I don't give a damn about who you fucking people are." Kaen growled, his eyes glowing with energy, as the spear of ice spiked out, tearing Shalria to shreds.
"Holy crap, what the hell is with Kaen all of a sudden?" Zoro questioned. "I know his daughter just got shot, but still. This is very out of character for him."
"He's lost it. He let the anger inside him build up for too long, and now he's letting it all out here as he embraces his true Saiyan nature. I wouldn't be surprised if he killed every last nobleman here." Franky said.
"You little wretch." Roswall growled, pulling a bazooka out from, somewhere, and aiming it at Kaen, before firing at him.
The moment the shell left the weapon, Kaen twisted around, and without so much as flinching, caught the flying explosive midair, and in a flash, shoved it down Roswall's throat as much as he could.
"I'll see you in hell." He glared, before the shell exploded, taking Roswell's head with it.
Looking around the auction house, all the royals and noblemen there were in shock and horror at what they just saw, before Kaen released an incomparable wave of energy that washed over everyone.
"Leave." His voice bellowed. "Before you all face the wrath of a Saiyan Warrior."
That got them out of their stupors, and everyone went running for the exit in terror, leaving the Straw Hats, Heart Pirates, and Kid Pirates alone in the auction house with the dead bodies.
"Chopper, can you remove the bullets from Eri and Hachi?" Kaen questioned.
"I can."
"Then do it now, and give them a Senzu Bean."
"But I thought…"
"If the bullets removed, they'll bleed out before we can do anything to save their lives." Kaen said.
"Smart for a monkey." Law stated.
"My mother happens to be a doctor. I've read several of her medical books and records." Kaen said heading for the stage.
With Mina out of her cage, she pulled a sword from her Duplication Void, and used it to slice through the fish bowl that held Camie like she was some sort of aquatic animal to be put on display. A second later, the side of it slid off, causing the water to spill out everywhere, as Camie just sat at the bottom of the bowl, with the water emptying, leaving only enough in there to keep her hydrated.
"Mina, Camie." Kaen said, hopping up on the stage.
"Kaen, what was that? I've never seen that kind of explosive anger from you, and you've never taken a human life before." Mina said. "What has gotten into you?"
Kaen was silent for a moment, before he grabbed the collar around her neck, and destroyed the lock with brute strength, before repeating it with Camie, and throwing both collars into the air right before they detonated.
"When I was searching for you, I learned one crucial detail." Kaen said, taking off his vest to cover Mina with. "If we're to survive in this world, then we need to adapt, and grow as people, and embrace some truths we might not like."
"You idiot." Mina glared. "I allowed myself to get kidnapped. I was gonna have you put a stop to Peterman's actions. But I guess that plan failed, when he brought me straight here."
Clap-clap-clap…
"Well done young man. You learned an important truth about being a pirate, and you also drew your first blood." Rayleigh said.
"Actually, my first blood was Peterman." Kaen said. "Who are you?"
"Kaen, that's Rayleigh. The guy Hachi brought us to see for coating the ship." Mina said.
"So you're Dark King Rayleigh huh?" Kaen asked.
"I am indeed. Though it's been years, since I've heard someone call me by that name."
"Is it true Yamoshi was a member of Roger's crew?"
"That story should be saved for another time. Right now, you need to figure out how you're gonna get away from here. The auction house has been surrounded." Rayleigh stated.
"I'm aware. I could sense the Ki of every Navy soldier as they surrounded the place." Kaen stated. "I'll handle them, don't worry."
"You're strong for a Saiyan. But are you able to go Super?" Rayleigh asked, stopping Goku in his tracks.
"The Super Saiyan is nothing more then a myth. A child's fairy tale told around the campfire and at bedtimes." Kaen said. "But I am far stronger, then the average Saiyan."
"Considering you used part of Todoroki's Quirk to kill one of the three Celestial Dragons?" Mina asked. "You owe me an explanation mister, and don't think you're gonna get out of this one, just because you're my husband."
"I know, I know. I owe you and everyone else here an explanation for my Quirk. But it will have to wait until I get back." Kaen said, before jumping into the air, flying to the entrance.
"I'm coming to." Kid said.
"Same. I could learn a thing or two from seeing you in action." Law stated.
"Not happening." Kaen said.
"Excuse me?" Kid questioned.
"Nothing personal, I just don't want to reveal all my tricks to a couple of rivals to my Captain's crew." Kaen stated.
"That sounds pretty damn personal to me." Kid said. "Either way, we're coming and you're not gonna stop us."
"For once I actually agree with someone." Law stated.
"Fine, if you wanna follow, be my guest, but don't get in my way." Kaen said. "Luffy, as the Captain of the Straw Hat crew, will you be able to get everyone out safely and meet up back at the Coating Shop?"
"As your Captain, I order you to come back alive. No more dying on me, you hear?" Luffy questioned.
"Loud and clear Captain, loud and clear." Kaen growled, a fire igniting in his eyes.
