Sorry guys, I know I haven't made any chapters for a long time xD I had a lot of things to do since clearance is just around the corner and I have to graduate. Since I'm going to become a high school (Cringe), I expect drama around so I only plan to be that type of person in class who doesn't talk to anyone, doesn't get close to any guys (who knows what the hell will happen, I plan to be in love with my anime crushes so no thank you to real life dudes), doesn't try to be in any dramas, and one who spends her time in a library. Also, I learned that there's no baseball at my future school so I'm like, really furious and angry.
I'VE ALWAYS WANTED TO SEE A BASEBALL GAME AND BECOME A MANAGER OR BETTER, A PLAYER!
Dude, like, why can't I play baseball or even just see one? I'd cry in happiness if my family ever let me play baseball or even see one. Speaking of baseball, you guys know Diamond No Ace? I'm actually planning to make a fanfiction, like, I got writer's block so don't expect too much from this stupid person xD
Also, I've seen a lot of authors formally talk to their readers so… I'm not sure, but do you guys want me to change into like, a formal person when talking? It's going to be hard for me but, if my readers want me to be formal, I'd do it.
Q&A time!
The Dark Dragen: Ok, the only problem I have is that the story is going too fast for my liking, but other than that not too bad so far. But I do have a question, why is it dangerous for devil fruit users to go to Mock Town?
M: Oh, is it going too fast? I actually thought I was focusing too much with Blackbeard and it's beginning to get, y'know, boring. And I planned to make Luffy suffer a bit more, please don't hate me for it.
On the other hand, Luffy wasn't speaking generally, but about the current Law and Corazon. Law and Corazon are weak in my point of view if we look to it considering Corazon's devil fruit involve to make him silent and Law can't control his devil fruit yet. Since Mock town, coming from Mock, is the town of mockery, there's a high chance that Law and Corazon would be used and probably slaved since they're weak or worse, be sold in a slave auction because devil fruit users do come with a high price. Cricket also thought the same when he talked with Luffy.
MDM11: Hey I love your story your doing a great job I'm actually trying to write my own one piece FanFiction and I just wanted to say I've read a shit ton of one piece FanFictions and I can say that this is one of the very few that I'm enjoying so I just wanted to tell not to give up on your dream to be an author keep all you're ideas in a note book and as they build your story idea will too I'm sure I'll be reading a book with your name on it in the future you have a gift your writing concept and story line are amazing I've seen story's that had no grammar at all and had no concept and they were written by collage students so i think for your age your writing in amazing and I support your dream to be an author cause I also love to write story's so I understand the feeling so just continue your dream and don't lose your drive and you'll achieve your dream one day I'm sure good luck I hope to read more chapter of this story in the future.
M: To be honest, you made me energized to make more stories because of your amazing speech. I hope your fanfiction will be great in the future! Thanks to you, I actually gained my determination back again because I was beginning to get tired. You know, because of clearance and becoming a high schooler is a pain.
SuperHaremQueen: I don't mean to sound like a 'jerk' but making Luffy continuously say "Jerk" this and "Jerk" that, it's not very convincing when your trying to make him be his "usual" goofy self while being over 70 years old and expect to sound natural with only saying "Jerk" a few times.
M: Oh, thanks for the report. I planned to keep it that way because I didn't want too much cursing, but hey, since you told me that, I'm going to use more curses.
In a good way xD

Last Time on Chapter 51…
"What!?" Smoker's frown deepens as he glares harder at the marine in front of him, who is currently sweating furiously.
"A-Admiral A-Akainu o-ordered you t-to go a-after the S-Strawhats…" The poor marine gulps, seeing Smoker glare at him deeper.
'Why the hell did that dog suddenly took notice of that stupid Strawhat when a long time ago, he didn't even care about him?!' Smoker thought as he looks at the marine. "You can go now." The marine nods furiously and shakily went away. 'Is it because of the bounty? No… His bounty may have risen dramatically, but it shouldn't be enough to have his attention…' Smoker clicks his tongue, placing his hand on his forehead. "I have a bad feeling about this."
Being called by Sengoku isn't the one that placed him on the edge, it's because Akainu is there. He ignored the marines who saluted at him as he took a sharp turn to the right with a frown on his face. A lot of questions ran through his mind, and all of them isn't good. 'I can't talk to Strawhat in the den-den mushi, I'll have to talk to him personally.' Smoker pauses, clicking his tongue at the same time. 'This is gonna be a pain if what I'm thinking is true...'
Thud!
"I-i'm so sorry, R-rear Admiral Smoker-san!" Smoker took a few seconds to process what happened before it clicks on him. He looks down at Coby, who had disheveled hair and a blush on his face from running.
"No, I should be the one saying that to you." He pauses as he reaches his hand to Coby, who flinched before reaching Smoker's hand to stand up. "I'll be ca-"
"COBYYYYYY!"
Smoker turned his head to the left hallway as Garp's voice echoed from it, then Coby began sweating furiously.
"-reful next time..." Smoker slowly turns to Coby, who gulped loudly and making him raise his eyebrow in amusement. 'No one would have ever thought this kid would be the future fleet admiral.'
"I'M VERY SORRY REAR ADMIRAL, BUT I HAVE TO GO NOW!" Coby shouts as he immediately runs away with a horrified face. Smoker only sighs and strides towards Sengoku's office, where he's being called.
OPOPOPOPOPOPOPOPOPOPOPOPO
Smoker knocks thrice at Sengoku's door before hearing an approval to come in. There, he's eyes immediately met with the one he despises so much. Akainu slowly formed a smirk on his face as Smoker did his best not to grit his teeth in anger. No words could tell how angry he was at him, he could still remember those brutal days when Akainu ruled the marines.
Sure, the pirates have decreased dramatically, but the marines also decreased. Only the strong ones were left, including the young ones who had the chance to be a great marine and he knew those young ones were brutally trained, causing a lot to give up. Not only that, Akainu didn't care if the innocent people were involved during every battle, he'd just say that the people were unlucky to be there. But after Akainu's reigning, Coby was there to change it. Ever since Coby became the Fleet Admiral, the deaths of innocent bystanders were minimized and the marines could finally sleep peacefully.
Sengoku coughs, making the two break their eye contact. "I assume you already know why you're called?"
Smoker frowns and puffs out smoke, glancing at Akainu before looking at Sengoku. "Because Akainu demands to lower my ranking." 'It's clear that he doesn't want me to gain more authority.'
"Correct." Sengoku pauses, "Take a seat for now, it's going to be quite a…" He glances at Akainu before closing his eyes with a sigh. "… Long talk." Smoker wordlessly sits on the opposite side of Akainu, not wanting to get any more closer. "Now that we're all-"
"I'm back!" Sengoku groans and places his hand on his forehead as Garp barges in with packs of crackers, a grin on his face as he held a happy look on his face. "I couldn't find Coby," he begins to pout childishly before sitting beside Sengoku, "thought I could ask him to come with me to do something later."
Sengoku only looks at Akainu and Smoker, ignoring Garp and let him do whatever he wants. "Now, let's get straight to the point." Sengoku pauses, his face turning serious. "Akainu, can you tell us why you want to demote Smoker?"
Akainu looks at Smoker for a second before smirking and turning to Sengoku. "Don't you think it's ignorant to promote him suddenly to a Rear Admiral? You may be overestimating him too much, this may show that we are blindly promoting marines. He hasn't learned about that yet, why promote him that high?"
Smoker places his cigarettes at the trash, not wanting to break the cigarette while gritting his teeth in anger. 'He knows… I can't show that I have Haki or else it'll give out suspicions, not to mention I'll be given a hell of a work and I may not work on the same task I've been given on my previous timeline…' Akainu's smirk grew wider when he saw Sengoku frown and think of his words.
Sengoku nods in agreement, "You have a point." He pauses, "But he has the potential, not to mention the strength and his leadership is outstanding." He laces his two hands, "His progress is also rising up in-"
"… I don't mind." Smoker finally says, cutting Sengoku as the three looks at him, "I can just work hard for it to show that I'm suited for it." He puffs out smoke, glancing at Akainu who was clearly angry.
"… I see." Sengoku closes his eyes for a second, 'I thought it would be quite a long talk, it seems like I was wrong. It's a good thing Smoker can be someone you can easily talk with.' He proceeds to look at Akainu, "Is that fine with you?"
Akainu clicked his tongue, his brows furrowed in anger. "It's fine." While Smoker won the conversation, it didn't mean that he was completely defeated. 'You still have less authority, Smoker.' He smirks, 'Not to mention I can still order you around.'
"Then this conversation is over." Sengoku pauses, "Smoker, I'll have to talk to you." Sengoku then looks at Smoker with his indifferent solemn face. "It's about your previous… misdeed." Smoker sighs, glancing at Akainu who he made eye contact with for a second before the door made them lose the contact. With Sengoku's keen eyes, he saw what happened yet kept quiet. Now that Akainu left, Smoker looked back to Sengoku. "Smoker," Sengoku starts, "Can you explain it to me why you left where you were positioned in?"
Smoker puffs out smoke, his eyes closed. "… Let me hunt Strawhat Luffy." He finally says, his now-opened eyes focused on Sengoku. Even Garp looked at him with a surprised face.
Soon, Garp laughs loudly, slapping his thighs furiously while tears were falling from his eyes from laughing too much. "W-wait!" He pants, calming himself down. For a while, he finally calms down. But when he looked at Smoker's serious face again, he laughed harder, now rolling on the floor while clutching his stomach.
Sengoku's eyebrow twitches, looking at the scattered chips on his floor. "Stop scattering chips on my floor, Garp!" Sengoku shouts in anger, a tick of annoyance on his forehead. "How much further do you want to embarrass me in front of a marine!?"
Garp was gasping for air, now holding on to Sengoku's table for balance. "A-alright!" Garp starts, swiping the tears at the end of his eyes using his finger. "Go and hunt that stupid grandson of mine!" He pauses, ignoring the shocked look of Sengoku.
"W-wait!"
"Knock some sense into him!" Garp adds, patting Smoker's shoulder. Smoker only smirks, puffing out smoke as he nods.
"O-Oi, I'm the fleet admir-"
"Now, go kick his ass!" Garp pushes Smoker towards the door with a grin, not giving any room for argument. He proceeds to open the door, "Good luck!" He pushes Smoker out, then banging the door to close it. "Bwahahahaha!" He proceeds to put his hands on his hips, almost looking like he was satisfied.
Sengoku finally snapped and stood up, proceeding to walk towards Garp and slap the back of Garp's head, ending the laugh. "You…!" Sengoku was practically in flames, stopping his urge to bury Garp in the ground. "I'M THE FLEET ADMIRAL, FOR THE LOVE OF-" Sengoku cuts himself off, sighing and rubbing his forehead to ease the pain he was currently feeling. Garp only laughs once again, not affected by how Sengoku acted. Sengoku soon points at him, a solemn look on his face. "You'll be in charge and responsible for him, got it?"
"Yeah, yeah." Garp waves his hand around as if hitting a fly, laughing a little. Sengoku makes an exasperated look but proceeds to sit back on his chair and pick some paper in anger. Garp proceeds to sit on a sofa, making himself comfortable.
Garp makes a boisterous laugh, a grin never faltering on his face before his eyes turning serious. "I thought it would be longer. I mean, this is Akainu we're talking about." He comments later on, making Sengoku hum in agreement. "But still, the tension between those two is surprising." That comment made Sengoku's eyes leave from the paper he was reading, "It's almost as if those two knew each other."
Sengoku furrows his eyebrows, placing the paper down on his table. "It seems like you noticed it as well."
OPOPOPOPOPOPOPOPOPOPOPOPO
"MAHAHAHAHA!" A familiar dark violet haired person laughs, "Here at last!" A villager falls down with a thud on the snow-covered ground with blood. "At my beloved," Soon, more thuds along with villagers who were beaten badly follows, leaving an annoying voice instead of the roars of the villagers that were now on the ground. "Drum kingdom!" The person huffs, "Hmph… To think they'd put up watchguards in the short time I was gone…" The man says as he looks around, looking at the fallen villagers. But he soon takes more attention to the tall snow-covered mountain. "Ahh… Those grand, majestic mountains towering over all else as always," He pauses. "Chess! Is my castle, right?"
Chess, who was looking over his binocular, soon lowers it. "It appears to be in a good shape, Your Majesty."
"MAHAHAHAHA!" Wapol then leans, a grin on his face. "Onwards, Robson!"
Robson is a large White Walkie, with long white fur, and an appearance similar to a hippo. He has long legs, and Wapol has placed a saddle on his back for him to ride on.
Wapol, seeing that Robson wasn't moving, makes a sly face. "What's the matter with you?" Robson grumbles, "Are you still angry that I killed your brother?" Robson grumbles once again, "Stop grumbling!"
"Mofu."
"I'll give you a nice reward soon enough," Robson seemed to be surprised by that, grumbling. "That's right." Robson grumbles, making a pleased face while visibly brightened up.
"YOUR MAJESTY!" A green-coated man comes running towards Wapol, "I HAVE AN URGENT REPORT!"
Wapol turns his head towards the green-coated man with an annoyed face. "What is it!?"
The man points using his pointing finger at a familiar sheep-headed ship. "IT'S THOSE PIRATES FROM YESTERDAY!" He pauses, "THEIR SHIP IS DOCKED BY THE RIVER!"
"WHAT!?" Wapol's face darkens, gritting his teeth in anger. His brows furrowed and a vein throbbing on his forehead. "Those Strawhats dare tread foot upon my kingdom!?" He says angrily, "Those scum have quite the nerve, after what they did to me…!" He fully turns to another green-coated man with his hands clenched in anger. "FIND AND KILL EVERY LAST ONE OF THEM AT ONCE!"
Cold sweat runs down on his forehead on the said random man, a troubled look on his face. "Well, that's…" The said man pauses, "None of them are presently on their ship…"
"What an incompetent bunch." A tall clown-like man, Chess, says with his arms crossed. Chess is a man who is a bit taller than average. He has wavy lips and a sad expression. He wears a checkered jester-like green-blue costume with purple lining at the end of the sleeves, a white winter cape with purple lining, that he ties against his chest, and grey buttons, with a light brown bow and a bag of arrows on his back. He has dark green pants and blue shoes with white buckles. "Looking at the footprints left behind in the snow,"
"it seems they've headed for Big Horn, Your Majesty." Another man with an afro, Kuromarimo, says with his hands crossed and resembled with an 'x'. Kuromarimo sports a long, orange cloak, with white lining, and black afros at each end, and white afros hanging from the front. He wears gloves that cover all fingers but his thumb and resemble an afro. He has a large black afro on his head, and three small ones on his beard. He is of medium height and normal weight. He wears a shirt that's orange in the middle and white on the sides with light yellow buttons, along with orange shorts. He has hairy legs and black boots with white laces. Overall, Kuromarimo resembles a boxer.
"Well done." Wapol says with malice in his tone, "Then we shall first head for Big Horn instead." Wapol pauses, "Let us celebrate the rebirth of Drum Kingdom with their extermination!"

Dalton frowns, hearing how bad the ruckus is outside his house. Usopp also noticed this too and looked back at the door with his brows furrowed in annoyance and anger. "What the hell is happening out there?" He looks back to the panting Luffy, a worried look now on his face.
Dalton stood up, about to go out when all of the sudden, a man barges in with a panicked look. "Dalton!" The man shouts, not noticing Luffy's poor body behind as he only focused on relaying his message. With a deep inhale, "WAPOL'S BACK!"
Suddenly, the room became tensed, silence engulfing the place. Dalton's face darkens, his brows furrowed and his mouth into a frown. Dalton proceeds to wordlessly go towards his sword.
'I have to settle things once and for all!' Dalton picks his sword up, turning towards the door.
'I'm not doing this,' Dalton's grip on his sword tightens.
'for justice or other such noble intentions…' His face and body structure slowly change resembling a bison, shocking Vivi and Usopp.
'After all, you and I…' The man steps away, letting Dalton go out.
'Are guilty of the same crimes…!' He takes a breath of air, seeing Wapol grinning maliciously in the distance with his soldiers burning houses.
'Just you wait, Wapol!'

"Lead me to that stupid Strawhat immediately!" Kureha says before looking at the worried reindeer and looking at Nami once again. "Who knew he'd be the one that I would help later on…" She muttered under her breath, slightly cursing.
"T-then, let's go!" Nami turns, immediately jumping to her horse along with Sanji, who did the same thing. "We shouldn't waste any more time!"
"Chopper!" Kureha gestures to Chopper, immediately going towards her with a sleigh at his back, and who the hell knows how he did that in such a short span of time. "Let's go!"
A/N: Fuwaaah, I think my hands are hurting T.T I've been doing it for such a long time but…
Maybe because I haven't done it for such a long time.
Phew, never could have thought that my back could hurt.
Like,
I've been doing this for a long time but now since I stopped for a few months, I think I became dull xD
Yeah, I probably did.
I know my story is messy, I've been becoming more selfish and doing more vacations than I should, but I'm doing my best. I never experienced such a huge wall before, like, writer's block is crazy I'm having a hard time... I'm also not too happy with my performances, school is really a pain. They've been giving too much stuff for us, and I'm not happy. I'm really sorry guys...
Anyways, thanks for reading!

A/N: Hello everyone
I think I'll have to be on HIATUS
I don't know how long but I'm guessing a year or maybe more.
Or less.
But I'll be making new chapters and puff them out in one go so it'll be like, a celebration for my return or something.
Though I can't promise that because things are really going downhill for me, I've been very busy.
This is only a small note for everyone.
I hope that all of you would take notice.
