No POV:

"EEETTTHHHAAANNN!" The alchemist in question immediately snapped his eyes open and attempted to get up...until that is he found his face still held tightly against Robin's breasts. He went red with embarrassment and tried to move once more, only to make Robin groan slightly and hold him tighter, which started to suffocate him. "ETHAN, COME BACK HERE RIght now..." trailed off Chopper, who was the one yelling for Ethan. When he saw the two, he blushed with embarrassment. The others followed after him. "Oh, so did you find...I'M GONNA KILL HIM!" screamed Sanji. Ethan finally managed to free himself. "W-wait, you got it all wrong! This is just a misunderstanding-" "What are you doing to Robin?" asked Nami in a dangerously sweet voice. And then, Robin woke up. "Hmm, morning, Ethan." Ethan turned to her. "Save me." he murmured before he was carried off to be beaten, re-treated, and heavily bandaged to the infirmary bed. Robin blinked. "What just happened?" she asked. Luffy and Zoro, the only ones in the room besides Robin, shrugged.

Later:

Ethan finally managed to rip free from his bonds. He opened the door and marched towards his lab. But before he could enter, he was attracted by some noise. "What's going-EHH?! A FROG DOING THE FRONT CRAWL?!" he yelled in surprise. "Yeah, and it's heading towards that lighthouse." said Luffy. He, Usopp, Zoro, and Chopper were rowing the ship after it. And the lighthouse in question was very near. "Hey wait a second...STOP THE SHIP OR WE'LL CRASH!" he yelled in panic. They looked at him weirdly, but stopped anyway. After a few seconds, a train of all things ran past right in front of the Merry. "WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT?!" the rowers said. "The Sea Train, also known as the Puffing Tom after it's builder." replied the alchemist. Then they saw the frog on the tracks. "HEY, FROG! GET AWAY BEFORE YOU GET HIT!" yelled Luffy. He was ignored however, as the frog attempted to stop the train, only to be hurled off the tracks. "What was that all about?" asked Nami in bewilderment. She, Robin, and Sanji finally got out. "Hey! Who said you can get out of bed, pervert!" yelled Sanji. "Oh, shut up, Shitty Cook! I told you it was a misunderstanding!" Ethan yelled back. "Grandma, pirates!" yelled a voice. Said pirates saw a young girl and a blue rabbit, along with an old lady who came out of a small building. Ethan suddenly froze, then looked at them carefully before running off the ship and flying towards them. As he landed he smiled. "It's been a while, Granny Kokoro." he greeted. "Well, well, well. If it isn't Ethan D Lizard, the alchemist of the Oro Jackson!" said the old lady. The two embraced and laughed. "And who's this little girl?" he asked after letting go. "Hi, I'm Grandma's granddaughter, Chimney, and this is Gonbe! She's my cat." the girl answered. "That's a rabbit, kiddo." said Ethan with a sweat drop. At this point, the others landed as well. "Ethan, do you know these people?" asked Nami. "Yep. Let me introduce Granny Kokoro, her granddaughter Chimney, and her rabbit Gonbe." "Gonbe is a cat." said Chimney. "Uh-huh, right." said Ethan. "So, where do you kiddos want to go" asked Kokoro. "We want to go to Water 7." said Ethan. "We do?" asked Nami. "It should be the next island in the log pose. Also, we need a skilled shipwright, and that place has the best of the best." he replied. "That train just left Water 7. Oh yeah, and here's a map and a reference letter to a guy named Iceberg. It'll help you out!" "Thanks, Granny Kokoro." said Ethan. Soon after, they sailed away. "We'll meet you there later. After all, we have to go there as well!" yelled Kokoro as they sailed. On the ship, while Luffy was using his bad drawings to describe the shipwright he wanted, Robin watched with amusement. After a while, Ethan stood down next to her. "So, about yesterday night, what was that all about?" he asked. Robin blushed. "I just didn't...want to...lose you..." she trailed off. Ethan blinked, then wrapped an arm around her. Robin looked at him in surprise. "You won't lose me, Robin. And if I do get lost. I'll find a way back to you." he said gently. Robin smiled, until they were interrupted by Sanji, who had murder written all over his face. "Well, time to go!" Ethan gulped, before scurrying away toward his lab and locking the door. After half an hour passed, Ethan came up holding a small sack, which he placed into the treasury. "What did you put in there?" asked Nami. "Gold. I have the Philosopher's Stone, remember? I can turn certain things into gold. Yet another reason why you're not allowed in my lab, Greedy Gui-OW! Watch it!" he yelped. "Hey, guys, we're almost there!" yelled Luffy. Everyone gathered around the edge. The city was a majestic sight, with an enormous fountain that towered over the city. "Whoa, that's a large fountain!" yelled Luffy and Usopp. "What are those numbers on the wall?" asked Zoro. Indeed, there were large numbers engraved into a few of the walls. "Oh, those are the docks. They are 7 of them total, I think. Anyway, let's go to the back. Pirates are customers, but because they are criminals, they usually fix ships in the back." replied Ethan. "How do you know so much about this city?" asked Chopper. "I sailed with Gol D Roger, remember? This was where his legendary ship, the Oro Jackson, was built." said Ethan. "Wow! That's so cool!" yelled Luffy. "Yes, well, let's hope we don't have a repeat of last time." the alchemist's mood became somber. "What happened last time?" asked Robin. "Last time, the only reason why Roger agreed to own the Oro Jackson was because the first ship broke apart. This place is making me wonder if the same exact thing will happen to the Going Merry." he said sadly. "No way! That won't happen to this ship! Don't worry about it, okay?" yelled Usopp. Ethan frowned. "I'm not too sure, considering the ship's condition. Let's hope that I'm wrong." Ethan said. After docking, Nami went off with Luffy and Usopp to deliver the letter, as well as trade in the gold for money. "Well, I'm off as well. I need more seastone and some ingredients for a few other projects." said Ethan. And with that, he flew off, though not before packing up everything he had in a large, wheeled trunk, just in case. After flying for a bit, he landed at the marketplace. He went around buying a few ingredients, and after noticing people walking around with masks, formed the face of Judge. 'Now for seastone.' he thought to himself. After walking around a bit, he ended up in the black market. "Hello, I would like to purchase some seastone." he told a shop owner. "Yes, sir." said the shop owner. Noticing that Ethan was wearing gloves, he smirked. "Devil Fruit eater?" he asked. "Yes." was the reply. After the purchase was made, he placed the mineral carefully into a pouch and secured firmly. Then he flew off once more. But as he was flying back, however, he passed Dock 1 and saw Iceberg with a bunch of shipwrights around him. "Well, I might as well pay a visit." he said to himself. He dove sharply and landed in front of Iceberg, the stone floor cracking. The foremen immediately took defensive positions. "Who are you?!" yelled Iceberg. "Now now, Iceberg, don't tell you forgot about me, I mean Granny Kokoro recognized me. If you forgot who I am, I would feel quite insulted." said Ethan. Iceberg blinked, then gasped, his eyes and teeth popping out comically in surprise. "ETHAAANNN?! WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?!" Iceberg yelled before hugging him for a few seconds. "Well, my new crew is here to get our ship fixed. 'Idiot Captain' also wants a shipwright, but I think I'll let him handle that one." Ethan snickered, before looking past Iceberg and glaring. He then lunged for a long-haired man with a pigeon on his shoulder. "Fake Finger Bullet!" he roared. The man dodged, but the spot that he was on had a hole that was shaped like a perfect circle. "Hey, what was that for?!" cooed the pigeon. In most circumstances, this would've intrigued Ethan, but he was being serious at this point. "Ethan! What are you doing!" yelled Iceberg. 'That's...Lucci of CP9! I think I can even spot out Kaku and Kalifa! What the hell are they doing here?!' he yelled in his mind. He immediately adopted a surprised and apologetic look. "Sorry! He looked exactly like an enemy that I thought I killed years ago. I didn't notice the talking pigeon. I apologize for my mistake." Ethan said. "Say, what's with the mouse?" he asked, pointing at a white mouse in Iceberg's pocket. "Oh, this little guy? He's a mouse I found. I think I'll name him...Tyrannosaurus." replied Iceberg. Ethan sweat dropped. "Well, it was nice meeting you again, Iceberg. Take care, and again, sorry for attacking one of your men." Then he flew off once more. A few minutes later, Luffy and his group came. After some talk and the transfer of the letter, Iceberg sent Kaku out to check the Merry. "So, Luffy, do you have a guy named Ethan D Lizard in your crew?" asked Iceberg. "Huh? Yeah, but how did you know?" asked Luffy. "Well, he came to see me earlier and said that his crew mates wanted their ship fixed, so I merely made an observation. We go back a long time, when Tom built the Oro Jackson." said Iceberg. "Wow, really?! Ethan must be really old!" exclaimed Luffy. "I know right? I thought he was joking the first time he told me that he was immortal, but he hasn't aged a single day. Anyway, how about a tour of the shipyard?" offered Iceberg. "Sounds great!" said Nami. Usopp wandered off to admire the cannons while Luffy and Nami walked with Iceberg, as well as his secretary Kalifa, a blonde wearing glasses. Apparently, Iceberg was the mayor of Water 7. During their tour, however, Kaku came back. "Wow, 8 minutes! That's a new record!" said a guy as he came over. Then he yelled at Nami. "Hey, aren't you ashamed of yourself?! You expose way too much legs, you indecent woman! You too, Kalifa!" "Calm down, Paulie." she said. "So anyway, what's the status of the ship?" asked Iceberg. Kaku looked serious. "The keel is broken." he replied. Paulie sighed. "Then that means..." "Yeah, exactly." said Kaku. "Why, what is it?" asked Nami. "If the keel is damaged, then the ship is too damaged. Simply put, we can't repair your ship." explained Iceberg. "What?!" The two pirates looked horrified. "We have 800,000,000 Beris! Can't you build another Merry?" asked Luffy. "No two ships are the same. Ships are made out of trees. Therefore, trees with certain curves and sizes are used to build a specific ship. And because no two trees are the same, no two ships are the same either." said Kaku. As he spoke, Ethan's words echoed in Luffy and Nami's minds: Last time, the only reason why Roger agreed to own the Oro Jackson was because the first ship broke apart. This place is making me wonder if the same exact thing will happen to the Going Merry.' Luffy started to hyperventilate and Nami had a look of disbelief on her face. Suddenly, they noticed that Usopp has been gone for a while. "Where's Usopp? He should be here for this." asked Nami. As if answering her question, a foreman with an odd head spike asked"Hey Kaku, weren't you with the Franky Family earlier?" "Not at all, Lulu, why do you ask?" questioned Kaku. "Funny, I would've sworn I saw someone with your nose hanging around with a few of their members. Actually, it was more like he was carried off." said Lulu. "Oh god, Usopp!" cried out Nami.

Meanwhile, Ethan was walking on an adbandoned street, lost in his head. 'Why are the CP9 here of all places?! It just doesn't make sense!' he thought. Suddenly, Lucci appeared out of nowhere and Finger Pistoled him in the heart without a word. At the same time, a woman Finger Pistoled him as well, but this time on the back. "Ack!" Ethan gasped before collapsing. The two quickly hauled him away into an alleyway. "Y-you're (cough) the mercenary (cough) Mefateh, the (cough) eater of the (cough, cough) Angel-Angel Fruit, (cough) Model: Lust..." As soon as Ethan finished his sentence, his pupils turned black and his head fell back. The two silently covered him up. "She doesn't have to know we killed one of her friends, does she, Lucci?" asked Mefateh. She had fair skin, long jet-black hair, and a curvy from. She wore a form fitting black tank-top that exposed her belly, a black vest with silver buttons that was opened, and a pair of black pants that accented her curves. But the most striking feature of all was her eyes. The right one was like Ethan's eyes, yellow with a black sclera. But the other lacked a real eye. Instead, it had a glowing yellow dot in the dark socket. "You're right." said Lucci, only this time, it wasn't a coo of a pigeon, it was the voice of an actual human. "Is she here yet?" asked Mefateh. "Yes." said a new voice. The newcomer was wearing a carnival mask, and he was leading Robin. The archaeologist saw the blood on the ground. "Who's that?" she asked. "A spy. We took care of it." said Lucci. "So anyway, I assume that you've accepted the deal?" said the masked one. Robin nodded. "If you frame the Strawhats of the attack on Iceberg and let them leave Water 7 without any incident or unleashing a Buster Call on them, then you get to arrest me and send me to Impel Down. And I also insist that Ethan will not be harmed." she answered. The three dealers exchanged glances. "Is he a special person to you?" asked Mefateh with a knowing smirk. "He did a lot for me." replied Robin. "Very well, then. CP9 will honor the deal." said Lucci after a long pause. The four walked away. However, both Mefateh and Lucci were very careless, for neither of them checked to see if Ethan really was dead. When Angel Humans (Angel-Angel Fruit Eaters) die, their eyes turn blank and black. However, Ethan figured out that by bending the light around his eyes, he can make it look black. And because of that, Ethan heard every single word that was spoken. 'Robin, you idiot! A wonderful idiot, yes, but still an idiot! Why don't you trust us?! But then again, I can see why. After all, a Buster Call did destroy her island. But why did she specify me? Maybe...she likes me as well?' he wondered to himself. He shook his head 'I'm still too weak, and I can't move because that damned b*tch targeted my spine! This is going to take hours. Dammit, Robin! I'm going to rescue you if it's the last thing I do!' he yelled in his mind before falling unconscious.

The Merry:

"WHAT ARE YOU SAYING?!" screamed Usopp. After splitting up, Nami found Usopp. He was beaten up by the Franky Family. Not only that, the money was stolen. When Nami found Chopper, Sanji, and Zoro, she gave them directions to Usopp. But instead, they found a blood trail instead. Not only that, they also ran into Luffy. The group followed the trail and found Usopp in front of the Franky House (the home of the Franky Family), lying broken and battered. In retaliation, the four stormed the Franky House to the ground. Literally. It when the fight finished that Luffy decided to abandon ship. After bringing back Usopp to the Merry where Nami was waiting, Chopper started to treat Usopp's wounds. But when Usopp heard about Luffy's decision, he was furious. "How dare you even suggest abandon ship!" he yelled. "Listen! We may have 600,000,000 beris, but the fact is, the Merry can't be fixed! The shipwrights said so!" yelled Luffy. "So, you just trusted a bunch strangers?! Just because they are experts?!" screamed back Usopp. "Then what about Ethan's words?! He said that this exact same thing happened to Gold Roger! Maybe it's a sign to move on!" "Bullshit! What does he know?! HE'S JUST A STUPID ALCHEMIST THAT SPOUTS RANDOM CRAP!" screeched Usopp. At that, everyone was silent. "Is that what you really think? Because if so...LEAVE THIS CREW RIGHT NOW! I DON'T NEED SOMEONE WHO BADMOUTHS MY FRIENDS ON THIS SHI-" Luffy was cut off as Sanji kicked him. "Luffy! Watch what you say!" yelled Sanji. "No, that's fine. In fact, I was thinking about it for a while as I saw everyone else's monstrous strengths! I'm leaving this crew, and I challenge you to a duel, Luffy! I challenge you for the command of the Going Merry! Here at 10 o'clock sharpish!" stated Usopp before walking away and slamming the door, leaving the rest of the crew in silence.

10 o'clock PM:

"He's here." said Zoro. Luffy jumped down the ship to meet him. "Don't leave the ship." he stated. The night was shrouded in wisps of mist, making the designated battleground look eerie. "Well, it seemed that you actually came." said Luffy. "Of course. Unlike your past enemies, I've known you for a long time. So I know exactly how to defeat you!" said the sniper. "Usopp Spell! Imagine the sensation of razor blades stuck between all of your teeth!" he screamed. "Gum-Gum...Pistol!" yelled Luffy as he ran forward. Suddenly, Usopp covered his mouth with a hand as blood gushed from his mouth and collapsed, making Luffy stop. "STOP, LUFFY! CAN'T YOU SEE THAT HIS BODY IS ALREADY TOO DAMAGED?!" yelled Chopper, but he was ignored. "Special Attack, Ketchup Star!" muttered Usopp. "You must be brimming with confidence to show your enemy mercy! Flash Dial!" yelled Usopp, blinding Luffy. "Special Attack, Egg Star!" A rotten egg hit Luffy in the face, followed by a bunch more as Usopp rapid-fired them. "Fight seriously!" yelled Luffy angrily. "This is how I fight! Special Attack! Tobacco Star!" yelled back Usopp as he launched a red pellet into Luffy's mouth. Immediately, he started to scream and writhed in pain. "Yes, move around! Suffer under Caltrop Hell!" As Luffy danced in pain from the caltrops under his feet, Usopp declared that he'll win and take back the Merry. When Luffy finally stopped moving, he was hit by a Pepper Star, which made him sneeze and move around to get pierced by the caltrops once more. "Dammit, it hurts!" complained Luffy as he stopped himself. "I won't give you a single chance to attack! Special Attack! Shuriken Shooting Stars!" cried out Usopp as he launched a rope with a bunch of shruiken at his former captain. The shruiken got free of the rope due to the force and went spinning towards Luffy in a swarm. Luffy was forced to keep dodging in order to avoid getting hit by the shruiken that Usopp launched one after another. After the shruiken hail stopped, Luffy paused as well, breathing heavily. "Don't relax! I covered your side of the field with gas using a Breath Dial!" The ones on the ship had their eyes wide in horror as they realized what Usopp was trying to do. "Flame Star!" screamed Usopp as he shot a pellet that instantly ignited. The place where Luffy was standing was swallowed in an enormous explosion that even rocked the ship. When it died, Luffy was on his back, slightly burned, but otherwise okay. Usopp, however, suffered no additional wounds. He prepared for Luffy's attack as he saw the rubber man's shadow. "Gum-Gum Gatling!" "Special Attack, Bursting Cactus Star!" Usopp's barrage of needles met Luffy's barrage of fists. The needles pierced Luffy all over his body, even sending him tumbling backwards in pain. But Usopp didn't let down his guard. "Triple Exploding Stars!" he launched three pellets that Luffy managed to dodge, though they still exploded. They kept it up, Usopp rapid-firing his three pellets and Luffy dodging. "Gum-Gum...Pistol!" At last, Luffy managed to land an attack mid dodge. Usopp was thrown back from the force, but raised his head to see Luffy barreling forward in his Gum-Gum Bazooka stance. But when it landed, it hit an Impact Dial, which promptly absorbed the impact. "Have a taste of your own blow! IMPACT!" yelled Usopp. Luffy smashed face-first into the dial, which blasted them both back. Both screamed in pain, Luffy because of his face and Usopp because of the Impact Dial's tendency to damage the arm. "LUFFY! USOPP!" screamed Nami and Chopper. However, Luffy managed to land on his feet. He stretched his arm as far back as he could and ran towards Usopp, screaming out the name of the final blow as the arm came flying back: "GUM-GUM...BULLEEETTT!" The fist that smashed into Usopp's stomach hard enough to make him spit up blood was reflected in the eyes of everyone aboard the Merry. The former sniper of Strawhats' eyes rolled up, and he slumped forwarding unconsciousness. Luffy fell to his knees. "You fool...what in the world made you think that you could defeat me?!" he yelled. Then he stood up and walked back. "The Merry is yours, Usopp." he said as he continued to walk. "Let me go! I have to treat Usopp! He was already beaten up twice before, now he just got beaten up again! Let me go!" yelled Chopper as Sanji held him back. "Listen! Usopp lost a duel. Not a quarrel or a game, but a duel. If you show him pity now, you'll just cause him even more suffering!" yelled Sanji. At that, Chopper slumped backwards, crying. "This is really tough..." sobbed Luffy. "It your duty as a captain. Don't lose yourself. Because if you do, then we have no one to lead us." said Zoro. "Let's vacate the ship." said Nami quietly. As they did, they noticed that Ethan's room was already packed. Except for an iron box with handles. Sanji peered at it. "What is this?" he asked. "T-that's s-something Ethan ch-cherishes. W-we need t-to take it w-with us." sobbed out Chopper. "Alright, then." said Zoro. "Funny how Ethan was right. I can't believe this happened to Roger as well...speaking of which, why aren't Ethan and Robin here yet?" sniffed Nami. "We can only hope." replied Sanji. As they left the ship, Chopper left a few medical supplies for Usopp so that he could treat himself when he woke up. And as one, the group tearfully said goodbye to the Going Merry, the ship that carried them across the Grand Line up till now. And as if the heavens were mourning as well, rain poured down, and the ram figurehead looked as if it was crying as the rain dripped from it's eyes.

9 o'clock AM

Ethan's eyes snapped open. "Dammit, I overslept!" he muttered. He got up and ran down the streets, intending to head back to the Merry. However, he stopped as he heard the general murmur of the town. "What? Some pirates killed Iceberg?" "It's true!" was said all over the city. Ethan stood in shock. 'No way! The only pirate group that's here is our group, and Luffy would never do this! It must've been CP9!' he gasped in his mind. He immediately changed directions to Iceberg's main office. As soon as he reached it, he checked for a way to get in undetected. To hide himself, he turned himself invisible using Light Ray Cloak. As soon as he found one, he sneaked in and navigated his way into Iceberg's room. But instead of entering, he stood in front of the door, and waited for someone to enter or exit the room.

While Ethan was walking to the main office, the rest of the Strawhats (besides Robin and Ethan) decided to located Robin and Ethan, as well as find out what happened to Iceberg. Nami and Luffy volunteered to go find out about Iceberg's whereabouts while Chopper and Sanji left to find their two missing crew members. So they rented out a yagara bull (the first kind of bull, a large horse like fish for used for transportation due to the canals of Water 7) and rode towards the main office. When they got there, they were met with a huge traffic jam. The reason was because Dock 1 was barred to certain parties. As Nami sighed in disappointment, funky music was heard. "No! Why now of all times?!" yelled the people around the two pirates. "Did someone say my name?!" yelled a masculine voice behind a pink curtain. Said curtain was on top of a bridge. "No! We didn't! Just go away!" yelled the townsmen. The curtain flew away in response, revealing an odd man with weird blue hair, sunglasses, and a swim brief. On either side of him, two indentical and square-haired women were mirroring him. "I'm the numba 1 most SUPER guy! The face of the Water 7 underworld! Oh yeah, people call me...wow...FRRRANKYYY!" sang the man, ending with an extremely odd pose that involved putting the forearms together and the fists facing outwards. The women beside him mirrored his pose. When the song ended, the people ran away. "WHERE ARE YOU, STRAWHAT?!" yelled Franky. "Luffy, he just referred himself as Franky!" exclaimed Nami. "EH?! I'M HERE, YOU BASTARD! COME DOWN HERE SO THAT I CAN KICK YOUR ASS FOR BEATING UP USOPP!" yelled Luffy at Franky. "I WAS PLANNING TO, YOU BASTARD! AFTER ALL, YOU'VE BEATEN UP ALL OF MY UNDERLINGS!" yelled back Franky. The two glared at each other as they got ready to fight.

Back at the main office, Ethan perked up as Kalifa opened the door. He waited a little longer, then saw his chance as Kalifa returned with Kaku, Lulu, and Paulie. He quickly went in before the door was shut and quietly walked to the end of Iceberg's bed. When he stopped, he noticed that Lucci was there as well. 'There's no doubt about it, CP9 is indeed here. I mean, three of their members are in this very room! And the presence of the mercenary Mefateh is not good! Actually, now that I think about it, Lucci's pigeon was a member too! I think his name was Hattori...great, things just got worse. he growled in his mind. "Iceberg!"Paulie's shout shook Ethan from his thoughts. "I'm glad that you're okay. We'll take care of things in the shipyard, so just rest up, okay?" said Paulie. "Thanks. By the way, I remember the culprits last night." said Iceberg. "The others leaned in closely. "One of them had a mask on, so I don't know exactly who it was, but the second person I recognized. After all, I can never forget the cold green eyes of Nico Robin." he said. "Nico Robin?!" yelled Paulie in surprise. "Coo! Yep, Kalifa's investigation led to the same conclusion. I confirmed it with the government, who said that she is part of the Strawhats!" exclaimed the pigeon on Lucci's shoulder. "What? Did they do it because we couldn't fix their ship?!" exclaimed Lulu. "We don't really know." replied Kalifa. "Well, whatever the case, they are going to pay for this!" snarled Paulie. Just then, a burly shipwright barged in. "Hey!!! There is trouble!!!" he yelled. "You're too loud, Tilestone!" yelled Paulie, Lulu, and Kaku. "You're all too loud! Be quiet!" yelled Kalifa in anger. "Oh, Iceberg!!! Good to see that you're fine!!! Anyway, there is trouble!!! Two of the Strawhats are picking a fight with Franky and are tearing up the shipyard!!!" yelled Tilestone. The group snarled in anger and marched out. "I'm gonna kick their asses! How dare they show up in the docks again!" yelled Paulie as he marched out. "Kalifa, can you also go out? I think I need some peace and quiet with Tyrannosaurus." said Iceberg. Kaifa nodded reluctantly and left. But as soon as the door closed, Ethan made himself visible. Iceberg looked at him in surprise, but before he could speak, Ethan raised his hand for silence. "Iceberg...we need to talk."


Chapter 12 end.

Hello, people! As you can see, I've added in another OC character. Her name is Mefateh, which I'm pretty sure is Hebrew for seducer. There is a reason for that, but I'll include that in later chapters. She also ate an Angel-Angel Fruit, and I'll explain about it's powers next chapters. And just a side note, any negative reviews must include a way I can improve a story. Things like saying 'Your story is so stupid!' isn't going to cut it. That's all for today, so goodbye!
