SailorStar9: With Chapter 207 uploaded, I present Chapter 208 of this fic. For everyone who put this fic on your favorited and followed lists and/or story alerts, thank you, but remember everyone, a lot of authors (myself included) sustain on readers' reviews.

Guest: As for Whitebeard's Fruit, I'm planning on having either Luffy or Sabo win it and then hand it over to the Whitebeard's representative Marco sent over. Sabo is already in Dressrosa; Ace on the other hand, is still stuck on Fishman Island. About Blackbeard's Fruit, it's already with the Whitebeard Pirates for safekeeping.

Pairings: Ace/Sasha, sibling Luffy/Sasha and Sabo/Sasha, Background Protector!Law/Sasha

Disclaimers: One Piece belongs to Oda Eiichirō-sensei. Me, on the other hand, own absolutely nothing, except my OC, the pairing and the fic idea.

Chapter 208: Arc 14: Shaking Heaven and Earth! Admiral Fujitora's Power!


"This is Green Bit?" Usopp gawked. "What are those giant plants?"

"Hey Joker!" Caesar shouted. "It's me! Pick me up!"

"Don't be in such a rush." Law silenced him. "That is the beach on the southeast of the island." he pointed to the exchange point. "We will leave you there at 3 in the afternoon. He will come soon."

"Look at the beach on the other side!" Usopp exclaimed. "Isn't that a Navy ship? It got stuck on the island. It's not just beached. How is it possible?"

"Those cuts on the plants look fresh." Robin peered through her binoculars. "I estimate that ship arrived here recently. It's body is not as damaged as I thought."

"Did they make it through the water filled with Fighting Fish?" Usopp was astonished.

"It's only a matter of time before the Navy soldiers get here." Robin reasoned.

"What?" Caesar exclaimed. "Do they know of the trade-off? I didn't know that. I'm a wanted person. Since my boss, Joker, resigned from the Warlords, there isn't any law that protects me. If you leave me with handcuffs on the island where the Navy soldiers are wandering, I'll... either way, I'm doomed!"

"I get this feeling it's something you did." Sasha cast a contemplative look at Law. "You look like you're hiding something."

"It's just coincidence." Law insisted. "How could I control the Navy?"

"It's not fair to hand me over here!" Caesar objected. "Abort this mission."

"The Navy is my enemy too." Law reminded. "Since I'm allied with the Straw Hats."

"Don't tell me you set me up!" Caesar snapped.

"We still have 15 minutes before they come." Law addressed Usopp and Robin. "Everyone, cover me with sniping and surveillance. They may be hiding. Go check the forest. If you find something, let us know as soon as possible."


Two minutes until the handover, Law's Den Den Mushi started ringing.

"Hey, Law!" Sanji shouted down the receiver. "This is Sanji!"

"Black Foot-ya, did you find the factory?" Law asked, his disguise was now removed.

"That's not important now!" Sanji snapped. "Listen carefully. You have to get out of there!"

"What are you talking about?" Law demanded. "We have to hand Caesar over soon."

"Doflamingo didn't resign from the Seven Warlords." Sanji replied. "Even if you hand Caesar over to him, there is no trade whatsoever. We've been totally deceived. Did you get that?" he shouted down the receiver after recounting what Viola had revealed to him about Doflamingo's lie. "Leave the island now."

"That... may be a little too late." Sasha, now clad in her 'Ice Dragon Form Armor', corrected, seeing Doflamingo approach the island using his strings.

"You fool." Law muttered. "Thalassa-ya is right; it's too late. What should I do?" he hissed after Sanji hung up.

"Robin, report." Sasha spotted Robin's clone emerged from the sand.

"This is just a clone." Robin stated. "I was listening to the conversation. It was Sanji, wasn't it?"

"Where are your actual body and Nose-ya?" Law inquired. "If what Black Foot-ya was talking about is true, the deal with Doflamingo is off. Nico-ya, summon Nose-ya. Let's get off of the island now."

"The thing is, we're underground of Green Bit now." Robin explained. "We had some trouble. But both Usopp and I are safe. We can't help you but if you're gonna escape, go without us. We'll go to the harbor where we agreed to meet up."

"I understand." Sasha nodded.

"The Navy!" Caesar squeaked when Issho 'Fujitora' entered the meeting spot with his troops.

"You're Trafalgar Law-san, aren't you?" the blind admiral addressed Law.

"You're the new admiral, Fujitora, aren't you?" Law asked. "Here he comes." he looked up at the sky as Doflamingo landed on the beach.

"Good luck." Robin noted.

"The same to you." Sasha returned and Robin vanished.

"Joker!" Caesar wept in relief.

"Hey, Law." Doflamingo grinned. "Well done. I didn't expect to see a Navy Admiral here. Since I'm no longer a Warlord, I'm scared as hell."

"Liar!" Law snapped. "Answer me, Doflamingo! You used the authority of the World Government to fool the whole world, just to deceive 10 or so of us?"

"Often, the more spectacular the magic, the simpler the trick." Doflamingo chuckled. "Law, 'That's ridiculous,'. People usually have a stereotypical idea or an assumption like that and that's what creates a blind spot."

"Nobody can really do such a thing, even if he hatched some scheme." Law growled. "Looks like Thalassa-ya is right; the only people who have the power to do such a ridiculous thing are the Celestial Dragons."

"It's a bit more complicated." Doflamingo grinned. "I have only one purpose, Law. I just wanted to kill you."

"Joker, kick this guy's ass already!" Caesar whined.

"I'm not gonna hand him over to you!" Law grabbed the flailing Caesar. "You didn't do anything that I've asked you to. Doflamingo, the deal is off."

"What are you talking about, you fool!" Caesar retorted. "We got this far."

"Is that how you talk to your boss after 10 years of silence?" Doflamingo chided. "Leave him, Law. Caesar is one of my precious subordinates. It's you." he turned to Fujitora. "You are Fujitora, appointed as a Navy Admiral through the World Military Draft. I hear a lot about you. They say you are a monster who has unquestionable power as well as the Ryokugyu."

"Oh why, thank you." Fujitora noted.

"Don't play dumb." Doflamingo snorted.

"I'm still new to the Navy, so it's hard for me to understand what you are doing." Fujitora admitted. "I don't have enough evidence yet but I have some information about you doing things that go against the rules of the Seven Warlords. The man right there was calling you 'Joker': is that your nickname?"

"If you want to investigate me, you have to be really determined and collect enough evidence." Doflamingo mocked. "Now, what's the Navy's decision about Law' punishment?"

"Regarding the news about you and the wanted pirates, the Straw Hats," Fujitora voiced. "If you're allying with them as they say in the news, you're guilty. If they have become your subordinates, Law-san, you're not guilty. Our mission depends on your response. We may have to arrest you and the Straw Hats."

"What kind of decision is that?" Caesar protested. "He can just get away by lying."

"The Straw Hats are not working under me." Law declared. "We're allies as you read in the papers."

"You're such a clumsy man." Doflamingo grinned.

"Then, we have to strip you of your title." Fujitora announced. "it'd be nice if the story ended there, but..." drawing his katana from its sheath, he sent a purple circle of energy straight up.

"No way!" Law gaped in shock as a meteor pummeled down towards them. "Is it a meteorite?"

"Don't be ridiculous!" Caesar exclaimed.

"You've got to be kidding me." even Doflamingo was stunned.

"Here we go, Icecalibur." Sasha stepped forward, materializing one of her more powerful ice elemental weapons.

"Thalassa-ya, what are you..." Law frowned. "This is..." he looked down at the iced-over beach. "Freezing air..."

"Overdrive!" Sasha intoned, Law shielding his eyes at the sudden explosion of power. "White Moon!" with a swing of her sword, she cast her attack, a blinding white circle appearing on the sand directly below the falling meteorite. Seconds later, a pillar of ice erupted from the circle, shooting upwards, the flames around the meteor were instantly put out by the freezing air. "Fujitora-san, please do not try that again." she warned, the meteor was rendered to ice dust after the ice pillar receded.

"How did the Fleet Admiral train you?" Doflamingo demanded. "You damn stray dog!"

"I just wanted to test your skills." Fujitora stated. "Now I'm going to arrest you. Is it okay, Law-san?"

"Don't tell me you're thinking you can get away from me." Doflamingo cautioned.

"Law," Sasha gave the older 'D' a side look. "Remember your resolve."

"Yeah." Law nodded, drawing his sword.
