Mr turtle – Considering her DF is called Mythical Zoan model Angel, then yes. If you want to know more about her powers, you have to wait. I'll reveal them bit by bit as the story continues.


Last time:

I know we need to set sail early to get in time to Mittoa Island on our rendezvous with Shirohige, but that doesn't mean I can't explore a little. We're supposed to meet with them two days from now at noon and that's 50 hours from now and the way there only takes about 10 hours according to Nami.


Lucky's POV

The cooks made some sort of deal, because of which we could all eat together. That said, it was one messy dinner. I was lucky enough to not get into fight with Luffy about piece of meat.

Even if the atmosphere was friendly, there was some tension in the air. It seems some had trouble with meeting that Whitebeard tomorrow. I didn't have such problems, neither most of Strawhats. "Oi, Luffy! What do you say about little sparing between our groups. It could help get the tension out of the air." Shanks said once we eaten. There were howls of agreement. "Okay, if someone wants to fight I don't have problem. But we should probably do it on that island, so we wouldn't destroy ships." she said and Benn, together with shipwrights agreed.

First was duel among father and son. From the start they were tied. Even if Yasopp has more experience, Ussop used surprised attacks and averted Yasopp's attention from where he's really going to attack. Shanks then stopped the fight, thus it ended in draw. (But it was obvious that Yasopp went on him gently, even then the kids skill are quite something.)

Second went Sanji against Rockstar, but then he started fight with Zoro. The two fought together and we ignored them and another duel went up.

Rockstar stayed in the next round and fought against Franky. And no, we didn't laugh when Rockstar gotten his ass handed on golden plate and we definitely didn't tease him about it.

Robin went next against me. She was worthy opponent and got me break in sweat. She also scored some hits, but in the end lost.

Benn didn't want to spar, he amusedly watched as we beat the shit out of each other. In the end he went against Nami, Chopper and Brook who teamed together. I noticed it earlier, but in this sparing it was obvious how good they work together and not only them, all of the Strawhats. And we were shocked when they almost won the fight, if Benn was just a second slower, they would have knocked him out.

Luffy really got amazing crew if they can stand on such ground with Yonko's crew. We fought against lots of seasoned pirates who weren't even reaching these kids knees. And I think if this was serious fight we might get our asses handed to us.

"Luffy, Shanks it's your turn." Benn said, sweat glistening on his skin. "I don't really want to spar against Shanks." Luffy said yawning. "What, Anchor, don't want to see your crew how you get your ass kicked." he said with smirk.

"Nah, just don't feel like fighting, that's it." she answered, but Shanks teased her until she went to punch him, which we took as a signal of starting fight. Even Zoro and Sanji stopped the fight to watch their fight.

I looked at the… what the hell?! Weren't there mountain on the island and what about the trees? Every single one of them is cut in half. My eyes were popping out of their sockets as were everyone else's. "Is that all you can do old man? How are you still a Yonko, its wonder no one beat your ass before." Luffy asked playfully and Shanks answered in kind. "Old man? Me? Please, this is just warm up. The real fight is starting now."

"I think we should listened to Luffy, when she said she don't want to fight him. Yohohoho. Although, I don't have any ears to listen. Skull joke. Yohoho." Brook said laughing, looking at the damage they done in 2 minutes while claiming it warm up.

As we watched them appearing and disappearing I couldn't help but be glad, she didn't stay marine. She would be even worse than Garp and Sengoku combined. Then many of our crewmates started fainting and we had troubles to stay standing. "Are they both using Conqueror's Haki?!" asked Nami, looking rightfully scared of the two monsters.

The fight went on about… wait, let me check… 5 friggin' hours. It didn't really seem they would stop soon. "It's 3 am and in the next 9 hours we're meeting Whitebeard. Do you think they are going to stop before that?" I asked Sanji. "Knowing how stubborn both of them are? No." he said lighting another cigarette "Oi, Luffy! Snacks!" he yelled and just like that Luffy was standing next to him. "Really?! Give!"

"Luffy you can't just leave fight like that!" Shanks yelled angered at her little. "But Shanks we fought for hours and I'm hungry! So bite me!" she yelled in turn, not backing a bit before following Sanji into the kitchen.

We glanced at Shanks who got finally at board and then openly gaped. His left cheek was bruised, his shirt was cut on right side and he was breathing hard, sweat dripping of him. All in all he looked like total mess. This wouldn't be surprising if Luffy was in the same condition, but the only give away of her fight were her messed up hair and clothes. "Maybe she was right, you're an old man." Benn said and we laughed agreeing with his statement.

"In that case you would think that I'm dying man or something, if I told you she was holding back, unlike me." Shanks said to us. "Hah, good joke, captain." said Yasopp, not wanting to believe Anchor is that strong, and I wanted to agree with him. "No, she never used her DF and that would raise her offensive and defensive ability among others."


Luffy's POV

'Thanks Sanji, you're the best! Itadakimasu~" I exclaimed happily and started eating. "Luffy, why didn't you use your DF?" Sanji asked me and I blinked, isn't the answer obvious? Looking at the rest of my nakama, it isn't. Even Zoro payed attention to my answer. "When we fought like that, our abilities matched. It wasn't win or lost for either side, but if I would use my power than I would have beaten Shanks. You also held back, when you fought your opponents."

"This was just sparing, if I kicked Shanks's ass at the beginning I wouldn't improve my skills at all. This way I got better at Rokuogan. (Can be used only after mastering six powers/Rokushiki.) At the base there wasn't anyone I could use it on without his/her bones shattering to pieces. Well there were Admirals, but I had to promise not to use it on them. " I informed them and they paled. 'No wonder Shanks looked so beaten, it's miracle he's not worse.' they thought.

"You can use Rokuogan? I never met anyone who could actually use it." Benn said, joining our conversation. "As far as I know, there's also pigeon-guy who can use this, but I kicked his ass, when he tried to stop me from saving Robin." I indirectly answered his question. "Pigeon-guy?" Benn blinked.

"Rob Lucci. The strongest member of CP-9, the secret organization working under World Government. All of the members can also use the six powers/Rokushiki." Robin replied him and Benn whistled in appreciation.

"As nice as this talk is I'm dirty from all the rolling in the mud, so I'm going to take a shower and sleep. Bye." I said and disappeared before we could answer.


Time skip

On my way to bed I met lots of Shanks's nakama asking me to fight, to avenge their captain. The others who didn't want the fight/spar were asking me question how strong I am or complimenting me. It was annoying and they followed, no matter where I went. I made decision and went of Sunny to visit marines. At least they had enough manners to let me sleep. *Yawnnn*

When I arrived on their ship I met with Arittaka who watched me curiously. "What, did you get tired of pirate life already?" he joked, but as tired as I was, I wasn't in the mood to be funny. "No, but I fought for 5 hours straight with Shanks and now everyone is either complimenting me or trying to fight me and I'm dead tired." I answered not really caring that it sounded more like whining.

"Oh, we were wondering what the fireworks were about. I know you enough not to keep you from your sleep. Goodnight, Luffy-san." I smiled at him, saying "It's only Luffy." and went to sleep on bow of the ship. It's not exactly figurehead, but it must be enough for tonight.


Benn's POV

We were almost at the meeting place, when I noticed panicked Ussop and Chopper running from one ship to other yelling "She's not here!" Who's not where? I stopped them to ask what's wrong.

"It's Luffy! We can't find her anywhere! What if she fallen into the ocean and drown or someone kidnapped her!" hysterical Chopper said, more like sobbed. "Don't worry about her. After yesterday sparing with Shanks people were too chatty with her and she went to sleep on marine ship, claiming it's quieter there." Shanks jovially replied to the scared kids.

"That's good. But to be sure, I'm going to ask them if she's really there." I nodded and watched as they vanished. I shook my head at Shanks, Lucky and Yasopp. Kids these days, they have too much energy. "You were right I spoke with Arittaka. It seems she woke up about two hours ago, eaten breakfast and some snacks before she went to nap." Ussop said as he arrived to inform us and to thank me.

"Moby Dick sighted!" yelled Rockstar from crow nest and we started to prepare. I ponder about what would Shanks say about the marines and the 'rookies' traveling with us. This would be fun, not…

When we got close enough we boarded Moby Dick like always when we meet. The 'us' meant me, Lucky, Shanks, Nami and Zoro. The last two were picked, because they were thought to less likely start a fight or make commotion. I'm not saying they won't make one, they're Strawhats, but they're better than the rest. Only shame Robin didn't want to come, she would be the best.

On the other side were all the commanders standing close to Shirohige, well two of them were sleeping, sitting against his legs. Few of their crew members who didn't scram fast enough of the deck, fallen unconscious due to Shanks's Presence (Conqueror's Haki). That made me wonder about Luffy's nakama, I sneaked glance at them. They didn't show any signs of even feeling it. Thinking about it, Luffy has her Presence as well, so they could be already used to it.


Marco's POV (little bit before Shanks's arrival)

"The Red Force was sighted." said Thatch to me and we made our way to Pops. It seemed we were last of the commanders to arrive. Ace and Sabo already fallen asleep, if it was due to boredom or narcolepsy kicking in, I don't know. I felt with my Haki few of our nakama still here and said to them to go below the deck, but Shanks was faster and stepped on our ship, knocking them out.

"Brat, stop knocking out my men when you visit me." Pops said to Shanks and he laughed. "Sorry, but being on enemy's ship makes me feel cautious. Besides this way it's less people that would want to kill me after I tell you some things." Shanks happily chirped and I raised eyebrow.

"What makes you think they don't want to kill you already yoi." I couldn't help but ask. Shanks looked sheepish and started scratching his head. I wasn't the only one the narrow eyes at his nervousness. 'What did he do this time?'


This is the good place to stop. I'm sorry, but you need to wait a little before next update and don't be angry at me with stopping. If I waited awhile it would be lot, lot worse ending.
