"Prepare, it´s coming" Sinbad prepared when Shirohige gave the order to go to surface. He was going to use surprise to enter the Marines home and invade with his sons… the whole army of them. Sengoku was thoroughly surprised. It has never crossed his mind that coating can be used as a way to invade his precious Marineford. The bubble finally broke and the captain showed himself, causing terror in the youngest marines.

"What the hell is this, Sengoku?" Newgate stared at the Fleet Admiral, who was still at a loss of words after his entrance. "I really hope my dear son is safe" there was silence, as the marines were too shocked to talk. The old man then took the opportunity and delivered the first blow with his Gura Gura no mi. Both Garp and Sengoku started to scream when they saw the wave he provoked with the attack. "GRRRRRR!"

"ICE AGE!" Aokiji jumped into action that moment, saving Marineford from being sent to the deeps of the ocean. Immediately he attacked with his ice arrows, trying to kill the old captain before the war could break in all it´s might, but another punch with the captain´s devil fruit shattered them along with the admiral´s ice body.

"Dammit" the marine felt to the sea, where he solidified the ocean water to avoid the ship´s movement. It was a movement meant to weaken the invading army and allowing the cannons, whose holders were recovering from the impression, to have an easy hit, but the pirates, especially the commanders, got out of it and started their movement on the icy surface.

"The commander! Hit the commanders!" someone ordered from behind, scared of their monstrous strength and fearsome reputation. Sinbad jumped in that moment, leaving Judal behind to shield the ships if necessary. The magi wasn´t in his best shape, so it was best to leave him behind, where he could be protected. Shame that he didn´t allowed the others to leave him completely out of it.

"ACE!" the former king screamed. The D was his commander… no, more, he was his friend. And if there was something that never changed in him, no matter how dark his rukh became, was his loyalty for his friends. He would fight for them until the end.

"Get out of here, you idiots! Why did you come?" obviously, the idiot didn´t knew exactly how valuable he was for his friends. Well, it was time to show him. with a scream, the purple haired man engaged into a combat with a marine captain, cutting down the lesser marine around him with ease. This didn´t made his opponent happy, as they were his men and reinforcements, but he couldn´t shake the other off. He was still leagues away from defeating Sinbad, with or without his djinn equipment.

"Damm you" he finally was taken down and the pirate advanced to the next opponent. Around him, the commanders were making such a riot that the Shichibukai were compelled to act too. Mihawk sent an attack with his sword directly at the ship and the captain, which was interrupted by Jozu, much to Sinbad´s relief. Judal, back in the ship, was relieved too, as the borg around the Moby Dick was too thin to resist such an attack.

"Fire! Fire! Sink the Moby Dick!"

"Not in my watch" the former dark magi was holding up for now, but soon his precarious excuse for a wand will give up too and they would be no more than sitting ducks waiting to be shot into the water. And it didn´t make him much illusion to end up as some unknown sea beast´s dinner.

"Just what I thought, Shirohige´s commanders have monstrous powers" Kizaru commented and Judal´s worst nightmare became true. An admiral attacked them directly while he was at his weakest, struggling to manipulate rukh without the proper instruments. He gritted his teeths and his eyes crossed for a second with Sinbad´s, who was turning to help. Unfortunately, he won´t get in time. Fortunately, commander Marco got between the hit and the light attack, effectively shielding them.

"You can´t just go for the king, you know?" the Phoenix told to his new opponent, flying in his half human form. Then he transformed into a full bird and attacked the light admiral, starting a great air combat which the former king would be thrilled to see if not in a battlefield, fighting for his life. Jozu then threw directly at Marineford a chunk of ice big enough to destroy everything, but Akainu melted it. Lava rained. Only the precarious shield Judal managed to conjure and Shirohige´s strength kept it from sinking the ship.

"OARS!" Ace´s scream managed to catch his attention after a few minutes, when he was fighting to conquer the cannons. He started to destroy them, Sinbad making sure no one got closer to him. Boa Hancock entered combat then. Once he would never give up the chance to touch such a magnificent lady, but now he considered himself a taken man and, knowing how lethal she was, it was probably for the best.

"Woow, she nearly got me" the sailor king got up from his nearly date with death, only to see that she was not the only Warlord that decided to fight. Kuma was also there, shrinking a very big paw. His Ursus Shock made a direct hit against Oars, severely hurting the giant, allowing Doflamingo to take control over his body. The good Oars was finished then, courtesy of Moriah´s Doppelman.

"What the hell…" the purple haired man looked up in that moment and saw a big ship falling from the sky, a lot of people falling from it. From the air, Sabo was making the same question, approaching to the worst place a Revolutionary can be just to drop his two friends. And they were not the only ones. Just a few seconds before, Jafar was wondering if he should use his knives to climb the Door of Justice, only to find himself in the air courtesy of a wave, the ship turned upside down and they falling from the sky.

"What the hell?!" Sharrkan screamed somewhere besides him. Yamuraiha reacted in that moment, casting a spell to make them fly. The albino was a bit away, but Masrur stretched and grabbed him.

"THERE!" he signalled someone in the ground and they all knew it. They have finally found their king.

"SINBAD!"

"HY!" they touched the ground and the madoushi started to run towards her friend. Oh, how much she missed him, even after the last stunt he pulled and his perverted tendencies. "SIN! WE CAME FOR YOU! SIN!"

"Yamuraiha…" he noticed.

"Hummm… don´t disappear on us again" the massive redhead went towards him in his usual calm demeanour, still holding Jafar close to him, who looked everything but comfortable so close to his ex. And about to scream. Yes, about to let his tongue lashing against him… much like the old times.

"Masrur" he said, looking alternative to each of them. "Jafar"

"SIN! DAMMIT, YOU KNEW HOW TO SCARE US! DON´T DO THIS AGAIN!" a giant of a man, almost as big as Shirohige, ran towards him. A blue haired man that he remembered very well from his adventures as a teen.

"Hinahoho"

"SINBAD! YOU ARE HERE! WE FOUND YOU!" a dark skinned Heliopath inhabitant ran towards him, a hand in the air. He looked absolutely happy despite what the person in front of him tried to do.

"Sharrkan…"

"SINBAD!" the dragon look-alike appeared too. There they were. His old friends, not complete, but there for him. and, apparently, they have been searching for him. Even after all he did, they were still his friends. Then, the shadow of a bird was casted over them and the last two of his generals appeared. Pisti and Spartos gave him the same warm smile, telling him that they were still with him despite everything.

"Drakon… Spartos… Pisti…"

"SINBAD! WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU?!" Jafar hit him over the head, finally free of Masrur. His visir looked pissed, it was the first thing he noticed, then that the albino has been truly concerned for him this whole time while he was having fun with the Whitebeard pirates. "YOU WENT AND DISSAPEARED FOR YEARS ON US! WITHOUT A WARNING OR A "HEY, I´M ALIVE!" FOR US! WHAT THE HELL, SIN?!"

"Well, well, the kid apparently brought his own reinforcements" Shirohige commented from behind, looking at the warm reunion. It was obvious that they were on their team, despite the tine white haired one whacking his son on the head.

"Jafar…"

"THAT´S THE ONLY THING YOU CAN TELL ME?! JAFAR?! AFTER ALL THIS TIME?!" he continued to hit him. "Dammit, Sin, I have been worried about you. We have all been driving ourselves over the wall because of what could have happened to you and then we heard you are in the middle of a fucking war and…"

"I can´t really return to Sindria, no?" he stopped the former assassin, who just went quiet. "Face it, Jafar, I am better here. I screwed up with my last plot really good and now I´m a pariah in the whole world. They are never trusting me again, not even the people back home. So… so it´s better for me stay here, away from them. Less problems for…"

"Sin, you are talking nonsense" the albino finally cut HIM. "People back home forgave you a long time ago. In fact, they have been expecting your return practically since you left" the surprised look of the pirate was priceless. "Don´t get me wrong, you did a foolish, stupid and very dangerous thing and surely gained the scorn of many MANY people, but no one home doubts that you made that with the best intentions. For Sindria, I mean" he patted his shoulder. "After all, you are the king of Sindria"

"WHAT?!" there was a surprise around him, from both pirates and marines, who regained their movement.

"I abdicated…"

"You didn´t, actually" Drakon came in that moment, holding a paper like it was a weapon. "Your utterly irresponsible ass forgot to sign the abdication. So I was only lord Protector until you decided to go back" he smiled. "Besides, do you think the people will let you abdicate? Sin, you are more than their king, you are their saviour. You gave that people a home. Hell, you gave us a home when no one else would have bothered with most of us or them" he ripped the paper. "Back in Parthevia, no one cared about me after what my brother did."

"Former assassin you reformed" Jafar lifted a hand.

"Rejected you helped to become a man and get a beautiful wife" Hinahoho did the same.

"Madoushi born in Mustassim and raised by a goi hating man" Yamuraiha followed.

"Former slave" were Masrur´s only words.

"Well, the rest of us didn´t have any sob histories, but you truly helped us in ways you couldn´t even imagine" Sharrkan patted him, overly happy. The other generals were also smiling, knowing they were winning their argument. "Besides… we are friends! This is what friends does for other friends!"

"Face it, we are not going anywhere. You are the king and we are your army" signalled Jafar. "And now… we have a war to win" they turned to face the marines, that were no longer contained by the pirates around them. "Let´s show our strength."

"And?!" Judal screamed from behind, showing him a little pouch. "Do you want them back?!"

"Yeah, give them back" Sinbad accepted, his confidence returning to him. yes, he completely screwed it with his stunt to become a god, but his friends were now here, helping him get up again from the pit his mistake has thrown him in and giving him strength by telling him they were going to always be on his side. This was everything he need to take his djinns again. The pouch flied and the man caught it, despite the abundance of people that tried to intercept it. He pulled out all the jewels and sword, putting them on his body. Now he was completed.

"What are you doing?" another marine captain made a move to take his head. Sinbad breathed in. It was a wonder he had time to talk to his old friends in the middle of the battlefield, but now… now the real combat began. He pulled out his sword, feeling the djinn stir awake. And not only that one, all of them. And the household vessels resonating near him, specially the knifes as Jafar hit the captain to intercept him. And he felt it. It was time to use his full power again

"The Djinn of Wrath and Heroes, I command thee and thy Household to feed on my Magoi and empower my will with your great ability! Come forth, Baal!" his full body djinn equipment appeared, lightning surrounding him. he pointed his sword towards Marineford, yelling one order… "Bararaq!"

"WHAT?!" Sengoku´s chin nearly touched the ground of the execution stance when he saw the damage caused to the fort. A third of the Marine´s central was completely gone now, along with a giant and a part of his army that still had to enter combat. His men also had stopped fighting and were looking with scared faces the destruction the king of Sindria just caused. Ace was amazed too. Since when his friend was so powerful? Apparently since ever, because the generals didn´t even bat an eyelash.

"Hummmm, I have gotten a little bit rusty" he flexed his muscles with a frown. "Have to practice" a flash of light nearly pierced him, but he managed to deflect it with his sword. "So eager to become my opponent, eh, Kizaru? I will gladly indulge" Ace´s little brother was already doing the part of the rescue and doing it so greatly that the only real threats were the admirals, Sengoku and Garp, so, why not having a little fun? "Guys, let´s make a way for Ace´s brother. Yamuraiha, they are weak to water, so you are the secret weapon."

"Got it" the leader of the Seven Seas Alliance flew off to meet the Yellow Monkey, while his generals took out their weapons. Yes, they could feel the power of Sinbad feeding their vessels again. So…

"Okay, the king gave his orders" Jafar was a little bit more enthusiastic than usual. "Let´s show them the power of the armies of Sindria" a bunch of marines tried to face them, confiding in numbers. Unfortunately, they were completely mistaken. "Masrur, you make him a way. Hinahoho and Spartos with him. We will deal with this ones"

"Roger!"

"Pisti, can you use your household with some of the zoans?" the little queen was uncertain, but grabbed her flute and let out a tone. Marco and Dalmatian immediately halted their actions, like they were hypnotized. "Perfect, try with the dog. The rest… let´s go."

"Time you stopped talking… FORAZ SAIKA!" Sharrkan spin once, taking down several objectives in one movement. Bastille and Momonga noticed this too, so they decided to engage the swordsman. Unfortunately, Jafar was also on it.

"You are against me now… Bararaq sei!" his twin snakes impacted the two vice admirals, sending them flying and out of combat, just to continue electrocuting other unfortunate soldiers in their way. Masrur kept his eyes on him all the time, biting his lip when he noticed his ex´s enjoyment. With a powerful movement of legs, he managed to put himself right in front of Luffy.

"Bararaq Kauza!" marines went flying because of the strength of his offensive, creating a path for the younger D, who thanked him and continued trying to reach his older brother.

-In the air-

"Apparently they are better than I anticipated" Sabo commented, smiling from his bird. He was about to turn around and return to the Headquarters when he caught a glimpse of the rookie pirate trying to save his brother. He knew that face… where the hell has he seen that face before? He looked at the older brother, trying to remember. This obviously happened before his amnesia erased his first years of life, so they had met as children and at that age the brothers obviously lived together. And just a second after… "ehhhhh… EHHHHHH?!" the bird nearly collapsed on the earth because of the reaction. "ACE! LUFFY!"

"What the…" everybody was surprised when the Chief of Staff of the Revolutionary army dropped from a bird down to the earth and started running towards the platform, grabbing a paralyzed Luffy and moving along with him towards an equally paralyzed Ace.

"ACE! WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING UP THERE?!" Sabo asked his brother, dodging and trying at the same time not to lose his other brother, who was so surprised to see him alive that couldn´t utter a word.

"Sightseeing… WHAT DO YOU THINK I´M DOING HERE?!" the second commander finally recovered, directing his rage towards his blond sibling, the idiotic twerp that appeared out of nowhere after ten years of them believing him dead. "WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING HERE?! YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO BE DEAD?!"

"AND YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO TAKE CARE OF LUFFY! YOU WERE THE OLDEST AFTER ALL!" he directed his rage towards Garp, who was equally amazed. Could it be? Could destiny be restoring him a grandson the same day it decided to take another from him. "AND YOU, YOU SENILE OLD MAN! YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO TAKE CARE OF THEM! BUT, LIKE ALWAYS, YOU PUT YOUR DAMN WORK BEFORE FAMILY! WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU?!"

"Ehhhhhh…" Ace paled along with Luffy, not wanting to lose their brother so shortly after recovering him. unfortunately for them and for the blond, the old man also slapped out of his stupor. Garp raised his fist. If there was something he won´t allow, even from his dear cute grandsons, was disrespect. And he would show that brat what he did with disrespectful little shits.

"You little brat… CALL ME JI-CHAN!" and he jumped out of the execution stand to hit Sabo. The blond threw Luffy to the front and dodged the enraged grandfather. The he mustered all the courage he could and prepared for the most suicidal thing he did in his life: distracting Garp.

"SABO, FOR YOUR LIFE, RUN!" Ace yelled. He was a bit angry with his brother, but that didn´t mean he wanted him to die. Besides, he needed someone trustworthy to take care of Luffy. "YOU STILL HAVE TO LOOK AFTER LUFFY WHEN I DIE!"

"WASN´T THAT YOUR TASK?!" Sabo dodged a fist of love. "I DON´T KNOW WHAT THE HELL POSSESED ME TO BELIEVE THAT YOU WOULD BE ABLE TO RAISE A CHILD WITHOUT ME, BUT YOU HAVE CLEARLY PROVEN ME WRONG!"

"OH, FORGIVE ME, MR. RESPONSIBLE! I ONLY DID MY BEST! ALL THE WHILE YOU WERE DOING WHAT YOU WANTED IN WHEREVER THE REVOLUTIONARY ARMY IS! AND WHITHOUT ANY ADULT HELP! I WOULD LIKE TO SEE YOU RAISING LUFFY AND GETTING A BETTER RESULT THAN ME!"

"And that´s something you all have in common" Sengoku interrupted, his head pounding because of the clear family fight in the middle of his battlefield. Just now he remembered Garp telling him about his third grandson, who obviously was the Second in command in the revolutionary army. God, what a mess has Garp done? "You, you and specially YOU" he signalled the three of them "are not apt to raise a child."

"But, Sennny, what are you…"

"It´s true, you can´t even raise a Chihuahua, let alone a child!" the Fleet Admiral yelled before ordering the executioners to raise their weapons, but a wave of haki stopped them from murdering the pirate. Ace´s mouth dropped and Sabo´s too. Their little brother had just used Conqueror´s haki.

And... the true Sinbad is back! He was lacking a bit in confidence after what he did almost resulted in the world getting blown up, but his friends always know how to help him to get up and fight again. Well, the only ones that are arriving late to the party now are the Rens... who wants to see them fighting the Marines? Review!
