Omake 4 & 5

00-SilentObserver-13: Shank's and his crew's reaction to luffy being taken by Mingo and another one about the scene with Ace and Sabo making the prisoner talk with their luffy enlightenment

The captain of the Red-Haired Pirates slowly, with a force calmness, set down the Den Den mushi. There was an eerie silence over the normally boisterous crew.

Not even a minute ago, the whole crew watched with growing anger as their captain and the people on the other end of the call got in a shouting match. At first their First Mate tried to calm their captain down, but as the conversation continued, Benn only stood by quietly, not even bothering to calm Shanks down any longer. He was in agreement with his captain this time. This isn't the time to be waiting on standby. They should be moving, doing something.

Benn knew that if Shanks had the power, he'd teleport them to where they need to be right this minute, but they are currently much too far to do anything this instance. It would take them months, depending on the weather, to get them to Dressrosa. He watched as his captain slowly turned to face his crew, with his head hung low before lifting it to show his simmering anger.

"Men," Shanks said with calm that was not normal on this man, "set course for Dressrosa, but we're stopping two islands away." He didn't bother to explain the reason for their sudden change of course. He knows they know. He's pretty sure anyone within a five-mile radius of them would have heard with how loud he was. "We have a kid to save."

The crew roared in agreement before rushing around to change their direction. Even if they had to wait for whatever it is they had to wait for, they're not going to sit around and just wait. They're going to do what they can to save the strange kid that brought joy to their ship during his and his brother's short stay with them.

"So we're just to somehow get in the marine's way and stall a few of their ships?" Benn asked quietly, watching the flurry of movements before them.

"It'll be too suspicious for two Emperors to show up just to save one kid," Shanks sighed dejectedly. "As much as I want to just storm that island as soon as I can, even I know how dangerous it would be for Luffy to have connections to us on top of being Whitebeard's. He hasn't even started his journey for Raftel yet."

Benn placed a comforting hand on his captain's shoulder, "It sounds like they have a plan. I'm sure the kid'll be all right. Don't forget that he's got a crew of over protective family, three of them are borderline possessive. I'm sure they want to be the ones to save him themselves. Makes me wonder what kind of plan they have. They're a crazy bunch like that."

Shanks gave him small grin, "Yeah, you're right. And I'm sure Luffy will be able to take care of himself until they get there."

Benn silently agreed, remembering the scare the kid gave him and his captain during his stay with them.

A/N: This is some time before they met Law.

Jiru peeked into Marco's room, to find Ace and Sabo sitting on the bed reading, while Luffy was doodling at Marco's desk. Marco looked up tiredly to ask what he needed.

"Nothing from you," Jiru said, already feeling sorry for his brother. Even the speedy commander knew how tiring it can get baby sitting the boys on top of their own work. "I want to borrow the boys for a bit. I've got someone I want them to meet."

Marco turned around to look at the boys on his bed.

"Can Luffy stay so Pops don't get lonely?" the two older boys asked.

"Sure."

They both got up and followed Jiru, leaving Luffy to his doodling.

"Who are we meeting?" they asked as they walked to the Fourteenth Division Commander.

"I ran into a friend of mine during my mission. I was telling him about you guys, and I thought you could tell him about some of the things you've been up to. Luffy's not a good story teller, so maybe you can tell him about your brother too, just so he doesn't get left out." Jiru internally cackled as their eyes lit up.

"In that case, we'll meet you in your room," Sabo said as he turned around a couple of steps to open up a trap door.

"We're going to grab a few things," Ace said excitedly as he disappeared after his blond brother.

"Ok. Make sure to use the door, rather the through the floor. I don't want you to give my guest a heart attack...yet."

It didn't take them long to show up in the commander's room with their treasured photo album and a medium sized treasure chest.

"All right boys," Jiru said as the boys settled themselves. "This is my friend, uh, Bob."

Bob? What the hell kind of name is that? So much for information specialist if the guy can't even remember a name. 'Bob' waved his hand to the boys, figuring being friendly is the best way to go.

Jiru promised him that if he could entertain the boys until they're satisfied, then Whitebeard will let him go. If not, then he'll have to give up and give them the information they want or face torture. Bob isn't stupid enough to think that he could get away unscathed fighting this crew. If only they'd just kill him, it'd be so much easier. But this? This is the best trade off ever. He's great with kids. All he has to do is make them happy, and he's home free. Whitebeard pirates must not understand how easy kids are if they think this'll make him talk.

"What do you have there, boys," Bob gestured to the overly large book sitting next to Sabo.

"We'd thought it'd be easier to have pictures to go with our stories," Ace answered as he reached over Sabo's lap to pull the book to rest on both of their laps.

"Oh? What kind of stories are you going to tell me?" Bob asked, thinking the boys were going to tell him a story that would somehow make him break. Ha! As if some kid's story would break him. He's never going to talk.

"Our adventures!" they both answered excitedly.

Ok. That wasn't what he was expecting. It's probably going to be some random adventures about finding caves or something, he thought.

The blond opened up the book and held it up for Bob, "This is Luffy, our other brother."

"Oh? Where is he now?"

"He's keep Pops company, while he does paperwork," Ace answered as he dug around the treasure chest next to him. He finally pulled out what he was looking for and held up a large, sharp tooth. "This is from Luffy's first boar that he killed on his own. The chefs were nice enough to clean it up so we could keep it."

"We were on this strange island that had lots of cool animals. We were really wanting the colorful bird, but it kept getting away from us."

"Luffy did manage to get himself carried away by it though, when it grabbed him." They took turns telling their tale.

"And then when it finally landed with Luffy still in it's grip,"

"a boar came out and charged at the bird."

"Then Luffy, wanting to save the cool bird that took him flying, decided to attack it."

"We finally caught up with him and found him smacking the boar with a stick and biting it and kicking it,"

"so we helped, but Luffy ended up finally shooting it with his gun."

"Gun?" Who the hell gives kids a gun?

Sabo flipped through the pages of the album again and showed him the gun that was strapped on Luffy's leg. "It was a gift, so he always carries one."

Bob decided not to comment on the fact that the kid could have just shot the thing to begin with or use the knife that's strapped on the other leg.

"It's not as big as the ones we used to see where we used to live, but not bad for a six-year-old, right?"

Six? The kid was only six? No wait. Back up. Not big? By the size of that teeth, that's got to be a decent sized boar. He didn't even get to comment as they plowed right on.

"Oh! And this is when..."

/*-

It was one outrageous story right after another. After a while, Bob looked over to see Jiru doing some work at a desk, not even paying attention to what the boys were saying. How can anyone sit through this? It was mostly Luffy this, Luffy that. Barely any adventures at all, unless you count all of this Luffy's mishaps. How can one kid get into this much trouble? Maybe they were all make-believe. They're just tall tales to make it sound better. Kids likes to exaggerate, right?

Now that he really thinks about it, where did these kids come from? Are they docked and these kids were invited on board? What kind of parents would even let their kids on a pirate ship? No, no. These kids have traveled around. Maybe they're from a merchant's ship. There's no way they're with Whitebeard, are they? No respectable pirate would have kids this young on their ship, unless they're slaves. But these kids has too much freedom to be slaves. One of the crew member's child?

"Are you okay?" Sabo asked Bob, breaking the man out of his thoughts. "You spaced out."

It was that moment that the ship lurched violently, causing Bob to fall of his chair, while the boys just sat there as if it were a normal occurrence.

"Maybe he's hungry. You want some snacks?" Ace asked.

Bob slowly got back up, readying himself for if another large waves comes by. He nodded. Yes, a snack would be great. It'd be a great break that he'd need from listening to the boys going on and on about some Luffy character that he does not ever want to meet if the stories are true and not made up. And his ears are burning from listening to those two ramble nonstop.

There was a knock on the door just before it opened. Jiru finally moved to turn his head to face the door and took out his ear plugs. EAR PLUGS! Bob couldn't believe the damn commander was using ear plugs just so he didn't have to listen to the boys ramble!

The First Division Commander came in with two large trays of food. "Thatch said you boys might want some snacks right about now, so he made you something."

"Pops! Snacks!" the two boys called out, before hopping of the bed and over to the blond commander.

And that was when Bob finally noticed a small body push it's way between Marco's legs, and the poor prisoner fell off the chair again. Instead of trying to get back on, he crawled as far away as he could from the group at the door.

Marco raised an eyebrow at him before turning to Jiru. "Your friend?"

"Yeah," the other commander waved a hand over to his prisoner. "Greg."

"Thought you said his name was Bob?" Sabo asked.

"Greg, Bob, whatever."

"Hey, Luffy," Ace asked as he looked over his younger brother, "why are you wet?"

"A sea king came up and tried to eat me again, but Namur beat it up before it could eat me. And then I slipped and fell over, so Namur had to get me out."

Oh, so the stories about the kid being nearly eaten is true? No, wait. There were stories where he was eaten but then saved before being digested. Oh God! They just called the First Commander Pops! How does that even work? Are they really his kids? No, no, no. That's not important right now. What is important is the fact that Luffy is looking his way.

Marco smirked when he saw 'Greg' flinched when Luffy turned his attention on the man. "Your friend seems ready," Marco commented when the man started shaking when Luffy took a step towards him.

"Hey, Ace, Sabo," Luffy said. His wide eyes caused 'Greg' to start sweating. "Why's he scared?"

At this point the prisoner was waving his hands around in front of him, trying to keep the boy away from him. If he could form words, he'd be yelling by now, but as it is, his mouth just isn't cooperating with him.

"Huh. That's weird. We just told him stories of adventures that we've had," Sabo said as he scratched his head.

Marco turned to Jiru with a humored look. "Why didn't you just give him up to the boys like usual? You know the boys like having bait for sea kings."

Bait?! They really do that?!

"Thought this would be less clean up," Jiru shrugged.

"Wait!" Both Ace and Sabo shouted, causing the prisoner to curl up on himself. "You made us tell stories to a prisoner?"

"I thought you'd like to have someone new to talk about Luffy. Besides, baits take too long to crack, and this guy is almost ready in just an hour."

The boys just grabbed the plates from Marco and stormed out of the room, with Luffy following. Once Luffy left, the prisoner finally uncurled himself but was unable to stop his shaking from his near encounter with the infamous, cute, adorable, awesome little brother.

"The boys are mad at you," Marco smirked at Jiru.

The speedy commander swiped a hand over his face and sighed. "I can tell. Now I've got two angry kids on my tail."

"Good luck," Marco laughed before leaving.

"Great," Jiru muttered, glaring at his 'friend.' "Do you know what I'm going to have to deal with now? The crew's been in so many insane situation since those boys joined, and that's saying a lot, considering we've sailed all over Grand Line. If only you cracked earlier. So what'll it be? Talk now, or bait?"

"T-T-TALK! I'll talk now. Please don't make me sit through that again!" The prisoner said so fast that Jiru almost couldn't understand him. "Please! I don't want to be anywhere near them! Luffy! Oh my God! Luffy! He's real! And his ON THIS SHIP! What kind of kid tries to befriend a tiger and want to keep it as a pet?" Jiru waited patiently with a grin as the man continued to wail about the many stories the boys told him. It's the most he could do after making the poor guy sit through the boys' rambling of their baby brother.

Jiru's actually quiet pleased that his idea worked. It's just too bad the boys won't do it again. "You know, all those stories they told you were all true. Marco was with them most of the time and confirmed their stories." His grin grew more wicked as the man quickly spouted all the information he knew, even the irrelevant things that Jiru didn't care to know.
