Author note
Hey all, here's the next chapter hope you all are enjoying the story so far.
*With the news brought from the toy soldier Nami, Sanji, Brook, and Usopp lend their aid to find and defeat two monsters and protect Asuna and Layna*
Nami: Are you sure you know where we're going?
Asuna: Positive I know the island better than I know myself.
Nami: Really you must be very Knowledgeable with the layout of it then.
Asuna: Yup I studied some maps in one of the rooms in the old toy factory it had a bunch of countries and islands from the new world and the Grandline on them. I even know some currents to follow along the seas and the weather patterns of certain islands.
Nami: Wow you're quite the little navigator aren't you *Nami smiles brightly she rarely gets to hear someone else talk about navigating with such vigor and cheery tones*
Asuna: Yeah I want to be a navigator so I can help my sister when we decide to leave the island.
Nami: Maybe when were all done helping you guys out I can teach you a little of my navigational expertise.
Asuna: That sounds nice, I'd like that.
Sanji: Nami-Swan is so cute when she is helping others.
Usopp: I was wondering, so what do these monsters even look like? *Usopp ask the toy soldier running along with them*
Soldier: They've been described as a green haired one eyed demon and a shape shifting hairy beast man.
Brook: one eyed?
Sanji: Green haired?
Nami: You guys don't think that..
Soldier: The demon cut down our forces with ease smiling while he did so like he enjoyed it so cruel.
Straw hats in unison: Yup it's just them.
Soldier: Excuse me?
Nami: I'm sorry it's just two of our crewmates they probably felt in danger when your brave strong soldiers showed up so they attacked you. They're not really bad we'll find them and explain the situation and sort this all out ok.
Asuna: Oh so they are just your friends then.
Usopp: Yeah but they can be easily confused for monsters I'm convinced they really are sometimes.
Asuna: Ok then so let's go find your friends then long nose.
Soldier: Well if that is the case I believe we have trouble. *the soldier has a guilty look on his face*
Sanji: Why is that?
Soldier: Well you see we already have and some new allies on their way to meet your friends in combat. Also Commander Cuddle's allies are on their way as well.
Usopp: That must be the others we better find them first then!
Brook: Don't worry you forget Luffy and Sarukenshi can use observation haki I'm sure they will figure out it's Zolo and Chopper before they even see them.
Nami: Saru-chan sure but think for a second, when is the last time Luffy remembered he can use his haki like that outside of a fight let alone actually use it that way? *The boys stay silent for a moment at the realization*
Boys in unison: FIND LUFFY FAST! *And so with that the crew bolts off to find Luffy or Zolo and Chopper, Meanwhile Robin and Luffy are making their way to find Zoro and Chopper still believing they are monsters*
Luffy: So what do you think these monsters look like? I hope their huge!
Robin: *Chuckles* Well you might be right considering how badly frightened the soldiers were, Luffy look. *Robin spots a few defeated toy soldiers some with their arm and leg pieces off*
Luffy: What happened to you guys u still alive?
Robin: Hmm it looks like some of them were cut and others seem to have suffered blunt force damage. *One of the toy soldiers lifts its head up and speaks in a hushed exhausted voice*
Wounded Soldier: W-who are you?
Robin: Its ok were to help protect Asuna, who did this to you?
Wounded Soldier: A green haired demon and a hairy beast, we didn't stand a chance..they were so strong.
Luffy: Tell us where they went we'll go beat them for you Toy guys.
Wounded Soldier: They went just up that path if you hurry you can catch them.
Luffy: Got it, Come on Robin let's go.
Robin: Yes captain. *Robin smiles warmly at Luffys determination to help the toys and they head down the path, Meanwhile not too far from their position are Layna, Pietro and Sarukenshi*
Layna: I think we're close.
Sarukenshi:*He and Pietro slow down for a moment and look at each other briefly* So you sense it too I take it.
Pietro:It may not be as great as yours evidently but yes my observation haki is telling me that it's *Grins uncontrollably Sarukenshi does the same*
Sarukenshi: Yeah I'm not that surprised myself.
Layna:….uhh can someone fill me in on the joke? *Layna says confused by the boys expressions*
Sarukenshi: Well it seems like this is a misunderstanding. *Sarukenshi tells Layna about Zolo and Chopper and understands the situation*
Layna: Oh well, as long as they're not really here to hurt my sis its fine. Let's go tell them there's nothing to worry about. *The three make their way to Zolo and Chopper who are following Choppers sense of smell*
Chopper: Wait hold on! *Sniffs*
Zolo: What is it boy is Luffy stuck in a well?
Chopper: Very funny for someone who got stuck in a chimney *he snidely remarks back* but close I can smell the others.
Zolo: What's up, they in trouble or something?
Chopper: *Sniffs* Luffy and Robin are still by themselves, but Sarukenshi and Pietro have someone with them..*Sniffs* and Sanji, Brook, Nami and Usopp have two people with them, one of them smells like the toys we fought. *Sniffs* and their all coming toward us!
Zolo: Well then we'll just wait for them right here.
Chopper: But what if they're hostages! *He says in a panic state*
Zolo: I don't think that's the case their too strong to be taken by one or two people.
Chopper: Their getting closer.
Zolo: Who's going to get here first?
Chopper: It looks like it's *Sniffs* Luffy and Robin.
Zolo: Alright at least we know we won't be attacked by him.
Chopper: Yeah *Sniffs* everyone has caught up now. *Everyone converges on Zolo and Choppers location from different sides they all see each other and stop well all except for one who is already loaded up*
Luffy: Pistol! *Luffys punch already let loose and nails Zolo square in the face knocking him over*
Nami: See I thought this would happen.
Brook: Yo Ho Ho! Poor Zolo mistaken for a demon I can't imagine that sort of thing happening to me.
Layna: AHH TALKING SKELETON! DEMON! *Pulls out bow and takes a crouching stance* Asuna get away from that!
Asuna: Don't worry Sis his a friend they all are. *She says with a bright smile Layna sees this and lowers her bow and gains back her composure*
Brook: Yes and in the spirit of friendship and unity, may I bother you for a peek at your panti *Nami Slams Brook into the ground in a blind fury*
Nami: Will you ever give that a rest!
Zolo: Damn it Luffy what's the big idea, you trying to start something you won't finish!?
Luffy: Sorry I thought you guys were the monsters the soldier guys were talking about.
Robin: Well isn't this a comical situation, though I guess by now we should be used to such things haha.
Sarukenshi: Hey Chopper you look confused hehe let me tell you what happened Luffy Zolo you might want to listen too. *Sarukenshi explains what the actual situation was*
Zolo: A demon huh, well I guess that's more or less a fairly correct term to use when describing me *smirks*
Usopp: That shouldn't be a taken as a complement to anyone!
Chopper: A strong beast man? Aww please I'm not flattered by something like that. *Dances in a flailing motion*
Usopp: Eh not surprising you'd take it that way.
Layna: You have an interesting crew Luffy and your also a bit of a unique find then I remember.
Luffy: Hehehe yeah their great hey so you were one of Boa's guards right.
Layna: Yes it's nice that you remember me.
Luffy: hehehe of course all of you Kuja were really nice to me especially Boa.
Nami: Well now that were all acquainted and everything is calmed down why don't we all head back to Franky and Sunny shall we.
Asuna: Yeah let's go see the pirate ship *She has a wide excited grin, everyone makes their way to the shoreline of the island where the Kuja ship belonging to Layna was found and where Sunny is, they're all talking and getting to know one another*
Asuna: Is it a big ship?
Luffy: Yup huge we even got a fish tank.
Layna: Thanks for taking care of my sister it's nice to meet some more level headed women here.
Robin: Likewise Layna.
Nami: So how long have you bee..* Sarukenshi, Luffy Zolo, and Pietro stop suddenly* hey what gives guys? Woah..
Luffy: Hey! Who are you random Guy? *The group stumble upon the ship that anchored on the shore a while ago and the man with the mini gun stands over them on the Gun deck of the ship *
Layna: Argg Damn it you again, why are you here? Beat it!
Man: Come now can't we negotiate things like proper human beings. The young master has proposed a generous offer for you.
