Hey here's the next chapter and the Arc before I enter the Dead End Race.

I Don't own One Piece!

Chapter 19: Seven Deadly Sins

The Living Trees were silent as they traveled threw the ocean. Shan has been unconscious since the crew got her back. Penny was in the kitchen making a healthy tasty dinner.

Razz was on deck checking his guitar weapons making shore each and every one was working perfectly. Kazuya was walking in circles in the crows nest limping slightly because of his butt wound.

Mac was making the needed repairs on the ship, and Elsa was standing near him helping when she can, every now and then she'll check the Log Pose.

Siamon would do one of three things, he'll read the paper, practice the sword skills, or swim while catching fish for Penny.

And Endo well……..

The multi clad captain sat in a corner of the room were Shan was sleeping, he was hugging his knees crying silently.

It was my own family, that got her hurt. I'm weak and I can't protect my friends from my own family.

Then get stronger…..

Oh now you decided to help out its been like weeks since you said any thing.

You didn't need me, now get stronger and protect your friends

Why?

Because baka you're the captain. Also they're your family not the sadistic old man.

But………

" Uhhhhh…."

" Shan!" exclaimed Endo as he jumped up from his corner and ran to the side of her bed.

" Endo is that you?"

" Yes Shan your safe now."

"Good ……. I can't see."

Endo's eye's widened "OH MY GOD! They made you blind!"

The doctor giggled to herself as she rested a hand on her captain's shoulder. "No Endo I mean can you hand me my glasses and turn on the lights."

Endo rubbed " Oh yeah, sorry."

-------------------------------------------------------

Vice- Admiral "Mass-Claw" James and his second " Super High" Hiro walked along the land of a deserted island. They were given a message by someone that "Multi- Man" wanted to meet with them..

" CAPTAIN! When can I show my heroness to this legendary marine!" asked Hiro

"Never if I have my say in it."

Why would Multi Man want to see me? I didn't leave his command on the best of terms. He was even angrier, even though he didn't show it, when I was promoted because of my abilities and became an equal to him.

James was to deep in thought, and Hiro wasn't paying attention, to notice a shadowy figure coming up behind them.

--------------------------------------------------------------

" We have two people for are test now Ira." Said a woman

" Good…… Luxuria, Gula, Avaritia, Acedia, Invidia, and Superbia. We need five more people for are game go and find them."

Ira was a tall man, in his twenties. He had black hair, and black eyes. He wore a dark red shirt with a high collar covering his mouth. Strapped to his back were to giant battle-axes.

Ira scans the room and looked at his companions.

Luxuria was a beautiful woman, with flowing red hair and dark black lipstick. She wore a black leather bikini top and black leather pants so tight and short almost to the point of indecency. She had a whip tided to her hip.

Gula was a seven-foot tall, disgusting looking blob of a man. He wore no shirt but on his stomach there were six circular tattoos.

Avaritia was a weasel looking man. A bandana tide around his head and a giant hooked nose, stringy black hair covering his eyes. He wore a blue vest with many pockets and lined with daggers.

Acedia was a lanky fellow, who slouched all the time. His cloths were wrinkled and tattered badly. He wore a hoody with it's hood over his head, his eyes had dark rings under them. There were pistols on his hips.

Invidia was an odd woman. She looked at every person, if a look of envy. Her hair was tided into a ponytail by a giant bow. Her jacket was too big for her and her pants were skintight athletic pants.

Superbia was a giant muscular man with a smile on his face. His upper half was bare, and his pants were short biker shorts. His shoes were metal and cracked the ground were he walked.

The man known as Ira smile to him self, his test will soon begin.

--------------------------------------------------------------

" GUY'S!!!!!! SHAN'S UP!" Yelled Endo as he ran down the hall with a blushing doctor in his arms.

Every one but Siamon came to see because Siamon was still swimming. Well technically Kazuya fell out of the crows nest and landed on his butt.

Mac and Elsa were the first to make it and Elsa gave here a big hug with a "Welcome Back".

Shan was then greeted by Kaz and Razz, and nearly tackled by Penny.

" Shan! Your awake! Now I have some one to hang with!"

"Pen, Elsa was here why didn't you play with here?"

"Because she's always playing with Mac!"

" Reeeeeaaalllllyyy?" said Shan as she gave the couple a level look.

Elsa rubbed the back of her head " Well enough about me and Mel, there's an Island coming up."

Endo and Penny's eye's lightened up "Really! Really!" they chanted jumping up and down.

Mac sighed and said under his breath " That guys supposed to be older than me."

Endo stopped and stuck a pose " Okay every body, a team of five will go and search the island, and one of you will stay back and take care of Shan, while waiting for Si to come back!"

Razz raised his hand " I vill stay, my veapons need to ze repaired."

Endo smiled " Thanks Razz take care of Shan." He then turned to his remaining crew " Kaz, Mac, Elsa, Penny you guys are with me."

"Okay!"

-----------------------------------------

Acedia walked into the meeting room lazily, with a bored look on his face. Glancing around he saw Ira punching a dummy hanging from the ceiling.

"Ira five more body's have appeared on the Island."

Ira stopped his punching and looked at the hooded man. "Good separate them and have the others chose their opponents I'll take the remaining one."

"Okay but what do you want use to do about the two in the cell?"

" Open the gates to there cells and let the games begin!"

----------------------------------------------

The five Living Tree's walked threw the forest, trying to get a feel for there surroundings. Elsa and Penny were excited at the beginning but now were just trudging along.

Elsa sighed " What's with men and exploring?"

" I don't know but this got boring." Replied Penny

Penny's eye' then become hearts all of a sudden and she pointed ahead of them.

" ELSA LOOK!"

There sitting in front of the group was………… a mini-panda in an orange hoody with a little panda face on it. This panda was mini because it was only one and a half feet tall.

"Oh my god it's so cute!" squealed Elsa as the two girls ran up to the cuddly little creature.

Endo, Mac, and Kaz all sweat-dropped at this.

" Hey Endo?"

" Yes Kaz?"

" What's with girls and small cuddly things?"

" Don't know ask Mac he's the one with a girlfriend."

Kaz turned to Mac " So?"

Mac shrugged and walked to the girls.

"So why is it in a jacket?"

" Shut up Mel."

"Fine, fine."

Elsa and Penny were passing the bear back and forth between each other.

"Penny what should we name it?"

" Um…. How about Pan?"

" I like it!"

Endo walked up to the girls "But I never said we could get a pe……." He stopped talking having noticed the death glares he was getting.

"Okay, Okay can we at least go now?"

Elsa nodded and stood up handing Pan to Mac.

"Carry." Ordered Elsa

"What! Why? You're the one that wanted it?"

" Melcom…." She said sternly

Mac growled to him self but held on to the bear. Kazuya whistled threw his teeth.

"Whipped."

" Say that again and you limp will be worse."

"Sheesh chill man- Ahh!" the ground shifted under there feet and started to separate splitting each of them up and dragging them in different directions.

" WHAT THE HELLS GOING ON!" Yelled Endo

AND That's that. I say this arc is sort of a filler thing, I just needed something so I can raise the bounty's of the crew before the Race. Hope you liked it.

The group of seven I introduced each have a meaning to there names. Just go to Wikipidia and type in 7 seven deadly sins and you'll under stand

Now lets see those reviews!
