Rustage and his men jumped back onto their ship. Dana walked behind Rustage, clutching her head and trying to walk in a straight line. The sound wave had seriously disoriented her and she was having trouble seeing what was right in front of her. Joshua and Connor were carrying what little they could collect of any value in their hands; a few pieces of gold, a few million berries, some rings here and there as well as a nice sword or two. Their faces looked dejected, the raid was not a success in their eyes. Jones clutched his sides with his two hands, coughing occasionally. Shwabadi on the other hand was screaming in pain. His face wasn't able to properly coat itself in haki before the bomb went off. Most of his long flowing hair had been burned off. His mighty beard remained though and he seemed to still have his eye.

"Fabvl! Fabvl! Where the hell are you?" He screamed, frantically looking for the crew doctor. Rustage motioned for Jones to take Dana to the doctor as well. Jones nodded as he nudged Dana on her shoulder, motioning her to follow him.

"Who's that, captain?". Rustage turned around to see the owner of the voice. She looked at him, eyes cold and arms crossed. She had brown hair fitted with bangs. She wore a white blouse and leather vest with brown pants rolled up to the knees. She had four daggers, two on each side of her hip.

"Ah, Daisy, perfect timing" Rustage answered. "That's our new crew mate, Dana. She's a demolition expert. Show her the ropes and make her feel welcome". Daisy looked quite annoyed to have to be babysitting a new crew member but alas didn't complain. Opting to instead role her eyes and say "ay ay" in a sarcastic tone.

"RUSTAGE!" Screamed an extremely loud voice making him jump out of skin. He sighed. 'Oh god, why me.' he turned around and waited. A few seconds later a giant mermaid came out from the water. Sending a splash of water directly at him. Rustage took cover but couldn't stay dry in the end. She wasn't nearly as big as other mermaids like the princess of fishman Island but she was still considerably big. Excluding her tail, Rustage's height didn't even reach her shoulder. She had short blond hair and huge blue eyes. Her scales were a vibrant mix of light purple and orange. She had a pearl necklace and seashells to cover her breasts. She appeared to be distraught.

"Hello April"

"You left me behind!" She fumed at him.

"Left you behind? If I recall correctly last week I called you and found you were nowhere near under the ship"

"Yeah I know but look at this!" She beamed as she showed him her back. There she had a tattoo. It was a huge Ace card but instead of a spade in the center there was Rustage's Jolly Roger. "I found this giant who offered to tattoo me for only 20,000 berries." Rustaged looked at the tattoo, it was done very well. It made him a little happy to have her as an "official member" of his crew though she had been with him before anyone else.

"Yeah yeah it looks really nice, but I don't want you straying away from the ship anymore" He answered, resuming his serious expression. She blinked a few times before smiling again.

"Are you worried about me, captain?"

"Can you get this ship out of our way before we set out?" She nodded and dove back under water. Rustage looked out as a giant geyser blew the ship to the other side of the harbour. 'With any luck it might hit one of the other guys before they can head out'

"Brace yourselves" he shouted as he held onto the mast. The ship started moving at incredible speeds. April was pushing the ship so that they could exit the port before the other ships. A few members flew backwards as the force knocked them to the other side of the ship.

Muna was resolved to have a fair fight and she was going to get her way even if she had to kill Tekking's entire crew to do it. She pulled out a mirror from her pocket and flipped it open. Her arm started glowing blue. Eight members of Tekking's crew were thrown on the edge of the ship while the rest charged her. Muna looked around, pulling large pieces of debris towards her to take out any pirate with a gun or rifle, while taking out her rapier to combat those with swords. Tekking led the charge. He clashed swords with her and immediately pulled back. He swung for her legs only to be countered by muna who was throwing off another big number of crew mates off the deck. Tekking jumped up in the air and spun around with his sword out. Muna repelled him but not before being cut on the arm and face. Tekking dug a small blade to the floor to keep his body from being repelled. Muna pointed her hands towards the deck of the ship and the whole ship was covered in a blue aura. However instead of the ship being pushed down, she shot up to the sky. Once in the air she covered her arms in the orange light. Having a clear view of the whole ship, she pulled everyone on board up towards her. As they got close, she turned off her attraction and instantly repelled all of them into the sea, except for Tekking. Both landed at the same time and both clutching their swords. Tekking glanced to the side and saw Joyboy desperately treading water as he held onto Ohara. Tekking looked back at Muna who was smiling. She looked at Tekking and performed a quick bow.

"I am honored to partake in this duel with you, Captain Tekking. May the best warrior win". Tekking lunged at her as soon as she stood upright again. His sword crossed against hers a few times as the haki clashed fiercely on both blades. Tekking was a better swordsman with stronger haki so his technique started to wear her down. Then his body was repelled away from her. A second passed before he was instantly pulled towards her. After a couple of swings he was yet again repelled. Then her strategy became painfully clear to him. She'd force him to come to her and after a few swings would repel him over and over until he couldn't raise his sword anymore. After the 16th cycle, Tekking was getting really exhausted. 'Shit, I need to get out of her line of sight'. As he was being repelled he noticed that there was a very slight gap from being repelled to being attracted. As his body approached hers he aimed low, going for her shins and ankles. The lower placement of the attacks put his own body closer to the floor, so when the slight gap occurred he was able to use his legs to shoot himself over to the helm and hide behind the crates. He caught his breath and clutched onto his sword. His mind raced for those few seconds on how to defeat her. He heard her land on the helm and approached him slowly as his brain scrambled for any idea. Then it hit him. 'It's time to blind a bitch' he thought, patting himself on the back for the cool quote though he hadn't actually said it.

Muna looked at the brick by the wheel, quite confused. Tekking came out a second later holding his sword in front of him, knowing exactly what to do. Then he looked at Muna as she looked at Barry. Her head tilted to the side as she looked even more puzzled. She looked to the brick, then to Tekking, and to the brick again. She put a blue aura around the Brick and shot it out towards the sea. Tekking's will shattered immediately.

"Barry!" Tekking screamed looking out at the distance. Tears streamed down his face as he punched the railing. "Barry! If only I'd been stronger" He wailed. Muna looked even more confused. Realizing how distraught Tekking was, she started to panic. She didn't know whether to stab him or comfort him or apologize or bring the Brick back. She didn't have time to think about it because Barry came soaring back at an even faster speed than he was repelling, hitting her straight in the ribs. She yelped at the pain as Tekking jumped for joy. Barry's body bounced off her and landed back exactly where he was originally placed. Muna was shocked at what had happened. Suddenly she heard a creaking noise and flung her head around to see Joyboy holding his cannon over his shoulder pointed directly at her. Ohara was next to him, on the floor trying to regain strength. Joyboy fired and she shot out her hand to repel it. However it only stopped halfway to her and then she went flying at incredible speeds in the opposite direction. She flew and flew until her body had been smashed through three buildings back on the docks. Ohara stared at him in awe.

"How strong was the cannon shot?" he asked.

"Don't worry about it." Joyboy answered. The rest of the crew was also climbing on board, only to see their captain hugging a brick. Grinning like a madman and then Tekking said,

"Well Barry, take us to the North blue"

Roger did not like to over use his fruit, it tired him out and it made him have to keep buying and wasting new Katanas. However when a ship comes flying at you at great speed, what else could he do? Using the last of his energy he enveloped the giant ship in an orb of acid and gradually melted it as it got closer and closer. What was left of the ship hit the side of their craft and left very minimal damage.

"What the fuck was that?" Roger grunted as he fell to his knees. 2spooky, who was now off the crows nest went to talk to his captain.

"It came from over there" he said as he pointed over to the general direction of Rustage's ship. Clutching onto the railing, Roger pulled himself up to see Rustage's ship speed away. On the other side of their ship, 10 fishman climbed out of the water onboard. They all looked vastly different. Some being hammerhead fishmen while others were piranha fishmen and some were swordfish fishmen. They had different colored skin and were all very tall and well built. Except for the piranha fishman called Stripes. He was shorter than the average human. Being under five feet tall. Roger had saved him from slavers in the South Blue. Unlike most fishmen, Stripes was a freshwater fishman. He hailed from Iquito Island and was bred in a giant river. Being 15 years old, he was the youngest member of Roger's crew.

"Captain! Captain! Did ya see that mermaid pulling the ship ?" he asked, jumping up and down with excitement. Roger who was still recovering from over using his fruit didn't respond. Stripes looked hurt at his captain's silence while the other fishmen laughed at him as they went under the deck to their sleeping area. Reagan was barking orders out to the crew as the ship had finally been prepared for their departure. Looking down to the deck she saw Roger being carried by 2spooky.

"What happened to him?" She asked with a puzzled expression. Before 2spooky could say anything Hiding responded.

"He's tired from melting that ship and spooky's devil fruit also weakens him." realizing his mistake, 2spooky let Roger fall to the floor. Much to his discomfort. He jumped onto the deck and took the telescope from Hiding. Tekking was still near the Island, though someone seemed to have been shot away from his ship. Rustage was already out of sight. He went to look for the rant pirate's ship but instead saw marine vessels incoming.

"Reagan hurry up and get us out here. I sense trouble." still looking through the telescope, he saw three vessels. Quickly though the numbers were reduced to only two as a giant six headed sea king that was missing two of his heads was thrown on top of one. 2spooky gave the telescope back to Hiding as he walked over the cannon on the back of the ship. He took a cannon ball in his hand and held it for a good five minutes, effectively turning it into sea stone. Loading it into the cannon he fired directly at the ship. The marine on the second vessel saw the cannonball and quickly turned his body into marble, only to have the cannonball take off his head anyway. 2spooky smirked as he saw the chaos start to ensue from on the second vessel.

Briggs hadn't planned on throwing that sea king on top of the ship. It was an honest accident. It effectively ended his fight, which he was upset about. Climbing back on the helm, he saw Nux and Animak barking orders to the crew to get under the deck and let them handle the marine attack. Looking at the second ship, there seemed to be much commotion and their den den mushi didn't seem to be working at all. Every marine on the vessel was desperately trying to wake them up, but they wouldn't open their eyes. The last marine ship wasn't even a ship really. It was a rowboat with only three marines. The one in the front had a marine coat on his shoulders while the other two had the standard marine garb. The man with the coat started climbing up onto the ship. Reaching the helm to see Briggs string directly at him.

"...Do you know where I can find a girl with pink hair, horns and pink dress?" He asked very casually. Briggs knew he was talking about Iron mouse. Seeing that Briggs wasn't going to answer he walked past him onto the deck and yelled out his description:

"Pink haired girl with horns! Are you here?" he called out. Nux and Animak looked at him, Animak reached for chinese long handle sword and Nux coating his arm in plasma. Before they could attack however Mouse came out of her room.

"Hello." she said, relatively confused. Seeing her the marine ran towards her, punching her stomach hard. She hit the wall behind her and he grabbed her face in his hand. Smashing against the wall a few times before holding her up in the air.

"Hello pirate. You killed my brother" the marine captain said through gritted teeth, "I can't understand how he lost to someone like you." Mouse didn't move but she did open her eyes and proceeded to stare at him through his fingers before speaking.

"How did he lose to some like me?" Mouse asked innocently. Clutching his arm with her left hand as she punched it with her right, forcing the bone to protrude out of the side. With his grip dissipated, Mouse dropped to the floor where her elbow was married to his ribs, shattering three of them upon impact. She grabbed her club and just crushed his head into the side of the ship.

"Isn't it obvious? Because I was stronger" She said with a smile.

"I see" he responded, his face was half gone but he still talked. His arm was now functional and his ribs were also mending themselves at great speeds. He stood up and cracked his neck.

"Do you remember who my brother is now? Before he died, he had this exact fruit. The 1up 1up no mi, a fruit that makes one's body heal itself with tremendous speed and efficiency" He smirked proudly. Iron mouse looked up and thought, it took her a minute but then it clicked.

"Oh yeah I remember fighting him a while ago. His power was annoying so I tied some cannon balls to his legs and threw him in the ocean.". The captain's mouth fell to the floor as the members of her crew chuckled at her brutality. Before he could respond, an orange aura covered his body and he was pulled off the ship at great speed. Mouse blinked and looked at her crew mates, shrugging her shoulders. The others did the same as Evanit0 climbed on the helm to set sail for the North blue.
