"Hmmm~ Hmmmm~! I wonder where he is right now?" the red haired woman jumped though the wall and got another access to another kind of scenery

"Urgh… This is why I hate my devil fruit… Why do I always get lost?" she pouted and then jumped to a hole near her to transport to another scene

"Hmmm? Isn't it a bit too green? Jesus, why do you even send me to this cheerful place? I really need my cute little performer now. It's been three months…" she murmured and proceeded to another place through the shadow of a tree.

"Ahhh~! Here it is~! But it's this a month before THAT happened? Oh well~! Frosty~! Your ol' lil' manager has came to you rescue~!" she called out cheerfully while looking for the Valor with great cautious

"I hope you didn't get sucked to another dimension… Argh! This is why I hate my devil fruit!" then she continued to wander around the devastated place


[Killer]

I shivered at the sudden feel of cold making the person beside me look at me questioningly

"What's wrong?" I rubbed my arms to provide some amount of heat and just shook my head

"Nothing… It's just feels like there is something wrong… Maybe we should go after them…" Heat nodded and we were ready to go but then a sudden blue sphere surrounded us

"This is..!" before I could say anything, someone suddenly appeared before us and was carrying Kidd like a baggage on his hand

"Greetings Killer~ya… I brought a package for you…" he threw Kidd to me making me catch him and look at the sadistic doctor

"What did you do?! Trafalgar!" everyone around the ship was ready for an attack but I just stayed calm to avoid unnecessary trouble

"Take care of him… I'll get your nakama back…" hearing him say that, I instantly shot him a glare knowing something happened to Valor

"You are talking about Valor right? Where is he?" he just turned around and was ready to leave

"Where are you going?"

"Going to get your nakama back. If you want him back, that is…" Kidd twitched in my arms making me look at him

"B-bring me with you!" he just snorted and continued to walk away

"Why should I? Judging from what the Crimson Conqueror done to you, you are nothing but a baggage to carry. If you really are concerned of him, then stay here and don't go anywhere near the place. Saving Valor~ya is already a lot of trouble…"

"The Crimson Conqueror? But… isn't that witch supposed to be dead?" I trailed on my thoughts and tried to remember some facts about that person

If I could remember correctly… Her name is Akisaki of the Dawn, a witch who is a perfect match against the Pirate King Gold Roger. Her devil fruit ability is rendered one of the strongest paramecia type but the information about it was not released in the public because of certain reasons. And there is a high possibility that she is like Valor, an Other Worlder…

"Screw her! I want Valor now! Bring me to him!" Kidd squirmed his way out of my grasp but I tightened it making him grunt and glare at me

"What are you doing?!"

"You are not going anywhere…" he was about to protest but was stop mid way "… without us with you. We lost our nakama, so we will take him back TOGETHER…" he silenced and then just stayed in my hold without making a single move which meant that he gave up on talking back

"Nuts, you take four people to guard the ship. While the others will come with me and look for our mascot!" the others cheered and readied themselves

"Kidd, how many days since the kid traveled with us? Well, it's not like it even mattered. Because Valor has already been a crucial part of the crew and you know the best why I said that…" his body twitched but then didn't make an complains

"Just… hurry up and get him. If he escapes, then I'll rip his feet apart so he won't be able to run away anymore…" I smiled and nodded

"Alright men! Let's take back the little idiot and set sail! Just be careful of the Crimson Conqueror! Her devil fruit ability isn't determined yet… so ask for help when you suddenly bump on her or else you'll die an unknown death…" everyone nodded and went out without hesitation

Kidd pirates are known to be formidable and unforgiving to their victims. But when it comes to nakama, those words might as well get twisted and change…

Somehow, I could remember someone say that even though time already passed…


[Valor]

Why… why are they running after the little me and the woman? What did they do to chase them off like dogs to be killed? Isn't that a bit harsh?

"Ugh… My head hurts again…" I held my forehead but continued to look at the two running away. Since they were running away so fast, I followed them and seemed to have caught up with my fast speed but still hid behind the wall, out from the marines' sight

"I feel bad for just watching… But I still doubt that I am sane with all this hallucinations…" ooooor that's what I thought. But suddenly seeing things that are surreal is also hallucination right?

The woman suddenly tripped making me panic for some reason. If she doesn't stand any second from now, she'll be good as doomed

"I guess I'll just have to help them!" I took out my dagger and threw it vertically with a whirling motion

"Sound Repel…" If you guys are thinking that I used one of the rendered most useless powers I had as an idiocy, well think again. Think of what sudden silence can do…

"Absolute Silence…" then my dagger landed in front of the pursuing marines making them pause and look around

"What was that?!" on pointed at my dagger and looked at his superior

"What?" his superior asked the soldier but didn't seem to convey the message verbally

"What did you say again, sir? I can hear you clearly…" I snickered at the act of those idiots. I just discovered this though; silence can cause confusion and leads to… OUTRAGE

"SPEAK LOADLY SOLDIER! I CAN'T HEAR A SINGLE THING FROM YOUR MOUTH!" aaaaand there, they are all shouting at each other, but I could care less about them. Right now, I'll have to focus on the two— what?

"Why is she… looking at me..?" she looked at me with tired confused eyes while holding the chibi me in her arms

"W-what are you waiting for?! Go! I'll buy you some time!" I shouted since I knew the marines won't be able to hear me. Hopefully, she wasn't affected by my skill so she hurriedly stood and ran while taking glimpses on me from time to time

It's about time that my skill would wear off…

"Yosh, since I ate enough snacks, I will probably be fine…" I jumped from the wall and faced the marines with a nasty challenging grin

"Yo Marine~kuns! Mind playing tag with me for awhile?" I widened my grin but they just looked at me

"Huh?" I sulked at the corner. So it didn't wear off yet? I wonder how many seconds more

"Ah, maybe I can cancel it on my own…" I reached out my hands to them and gave a sweet smile

"I release the silence within you…" I somehow got goose bumps when saying that but it seems to be really effective. They all looked at ear other, being able to hear at last

"Woah! I can hear now!" they seemed to cheer and get all happy while I feel really left out. But it doesn't really matter right now, I should just start getting my exp

"Ugh… Fine, have it all your way…" I picked up my dagger and pointed it to them. Their superior seemed to notice me now and furrowed his brows

"Who are you?" I smiled at him and got ready for some beating exercise

"Me? Oh don't mind me. I am just someone who really wants to know why you are chasing those two…" he frowned and signaled to the others

"Men! This guy is a criminal! Shoot at will!" I sighed and just started to get moving, since these people will not even let me explain anything

"Then,. I'll just ask those two later…"

/TO BE CONTINUED/


Yo~ yo yo YO~! Sorry for being inactive for a weak (maybe)… I was working on the one-shot and finally got to update it! But yeah, it didn't mean that I wasn't working on the others too. Also, I would like to remind you guys that I might not be updating this fic for some time 'cuz I'll be prioritizing the other because of the ideas I suddenly thought. And so, please forgive me for the inconvenience

Love you guys!
