After everyone went to bed or fell over drunk, Shura sat in her room which was now also Chopper's medical office due to lack of room in the boy's quarters and Sanji not allowing Chopper to use the kitchen.
Much to Luffy's dismay because he wanted to be bunkmates with Shura, Chopper was now Shura's new roommate as well. The tiny reindeer was fast asleep above Shura in a hammock made out of fishing net. Shura sat on her couch/bed glaring at the cushion that Luffy took a bite out of. It now was patched up with a different fabric filled with stuffing from were Shura managed to buy some on Drum Island. She also managed to get new covers as well.
She didn't know who the stowaway was but she was sure they got cold at night. So she just left them laying out in the open a couple hours ago and they mysteriously disappeared. (After of course making sure none of the boys took it.) Shura was sure that the stowaway got the message.
Shura looked over at the crate next to the couch of which she had been using as a nightstand and picked up the envelope that Kureha had given her.
"Another theory is that it's recessive gene in mankind and only a couple times in every other generation does it activate in one's DNA." What Doctor Kureha said rung in Shura's head as she stared down at the envelope in her hands. 'Does this mean there are more people like me?' Shura thought wondering if she should open up the envelope or not. Shura decided to do so in case it was important.
After ripping the top carefully open Shura pulled out the bundle of things that was in the envelope. She stared at the wax emblem that held the bundle together. It was strange like none that Shura had ever seen before, it had a pencil and an eraser surrounding an eye that was over top of a world. Shura went to remove the wax emblem only to cut herself somehow and a drop of blood from her finger hit the emblem causing it to glow with a gold hue and disappear. In the bundle there was a tiny book with no title on the front, there was a locket, and a letter.
Shura decided to read the letter first seeing that it might explain as to why there is a locket and a book.
To whom it may concern,
I cannot disclose my name for various reasons. However I can assure you that you are not alone. Just like you I as well am able to jump world to world just like you. However if Kureha gives this to you than you have no idea as to why you are able to do this and reasons for your ability, in his package I have provided a book and a locket. The book will help explain things further and the locket will come in handy for you in the future which you'll find out when the time comes. Well I must be going now I hope our paths cross in the future.
Shura stared at the letter confused as to why there were so little answers and more questions brought on by this. Who was the other jumper and did Shura know them? Maybe she was related to them. It was a possibility. Shura remembered in biology class that recessive genes are more dominate in some families. She shook the thought away tucking it in the back of her mind for now.
Then Shura glanced over at the locket that was just lying there innocently gleaming in the candle light. She picked it up and attempted to open it. But it wouldn't budge. Shura sighed and set the locket aside for the moment then she glanced back at the book she opened it up and began scanning through it.
By the time morning came Shura had learned quite a few things about what she was, apparently Sekai no Jumpa's exist to balance out unbalanced worlds and to eliminate whatever thing that is causing things to happen that shouldn't happen.
Shura began to wonder if she was the one who was causing things that shouldn't happen to happen. Everything was out of whack in this version of one piece for starters things going on much earlier than they should and Chopper asking to become a part of the crew rather than being forced to by Luffy.
But Shura shook her head the only thing she caused was Chopper joining the crew. But that was inadvertently it's not like she told him to. Shura groaned aloud because her head began to hurt from how she was stressing out over that, and then she looked up at her new roommate. Although she would've preferred to have a room to herself it was better than being… bunkmates with Luffy or taking her chances with the stowaway.
Shura then heard her tiny room mate yawn and lean over. "What's a matter Shura-san?" Chopper questioned sleepily rubbing his eyes. Shura looked up at Chopper and shrugged everyone on this ship now knew what she was might as well explain her frustration.
"In that package that Doctorine gave me there was a book explaining what I am and the reasons for people like me existing and I'm just wondering what's causing the reason why I'm in this world." Shura said to Chopper who perked up and then jumped down from his bed.
"Well what's the reason?" Chopper asked now interested in Shura's current dilemma Shura glanced at the book and flipped a few pages to go back to what she read. "It says that Sekai no Jumpa's exist to balance out whatever world they are in or to eliminate the thing causing the world to be unbalanced. But I don't know what is causing this world to be out of whack and I seriously don't like cleaning up other people's messes. Sure I'll clean up mine but that's because I caused it. But this book is making it sound like I'm a multidimensional maid or something." Shura explained, Chopper stood there for a moment then giggled.
"You're funny Shura-san!" He said cutely causing Shura to twitch 'Must resist cuteness… Must… resist.' Shura chanted in her mind "Personally I think it's neat that you're from another world! You're like some super hero of some sort!" Chopper said grinning clearly now comfortable with being around Shura and the rest of the crew. Chopper was innocent like some little kid. Shura had a hard time not tackling the tiny devil fruit eating reindeer.
But just as Shura was about to break and tackle Chopper in a hug Chopper said "Well I better check your ribs Shura."
Shura grunted in agreement then slipped off her shirt where there was a half tank top on underneath. It had been cut in half for easy excess to the bandages that were wrapped around Shura's stomach to protect her rips and keep them aligned.
Chopper slowly undid the bandages that were wrapped around Shura's torso to see a large burse on Shura's side. "They're better than they were. You're lucky Doctrine's medication works faster than normal medication. That's why you're able to heal so fast internally, I'll have to up the dose a bit before we get to Arabasta so you'll be healed up." Chopper said to Shura who nodded mutely. After putting Shura's bandages back on her. The tiny blue nosed reindeer stood back and smiled "Just rest up for a few hours then walk around a bit. So I can see how the medication is progressing in your body." Chopper ordered Shura nodded then stood up.
"Well I'm going to annoy Sanji for food. Thanks Chopper." Shura said as Chopper yelled about her being a bastard and it didn't make him happy that she thanked him.
Shura went above deck after putting her shirt back on and stretched. "Ah I'm almost patched up! I hate being bed ridden." Shura chirped happily not really announcing anything to anyone. "You seem to hate a lot of things." Luffy said with his face stuffed full of food. Shura turned around and sweat dropped. "Luffy is that some of the rations that Sanji set up for us? You know if he catches you eating that he's going to kick your rubber ass all the way back to the east blue." Shura stated, Luffy's eyes then widened and he inhaled the rest of the food before Sanji could come out and see him eating it.
"That was just gross as well as amazing." Shura stated dryly at Luffy eat a ham whole in one bite. Shura looked up towards the kitchen to see Vivi and Nami talking as Nami held her map in her hands. Shura didn't bother to listen. Sanji was probably cooking something up Usopp was fishing. Carue was squawking about something and Zoro was asleep.
"Who would've ever thought a pirate ship would be this boring?" Shura mused aloud to herself then decided to do some training before Chopper caught her. So slipping off her boots Shura jumped over board to see if she could fight any sea king to fight with.
Usopp blinked in surprise when he saw Shura jump over board and drive under water. Then Chopper came out and walked over to Usopp. "Hey Usopp can I fish too?" Chopper questioned taking this as a time to get to know his new Nakama. "Sure I don't see why not." Usopp said then Luffy ran over and shared some food with Chopper and Usopp telling them to finish it before Sanji caught them.
About fifteen minutes past since Shura dived under water and Usopp found himself getting a bit worried. But didn't say anything.
"Luffy tell me did you eat the rations or not!" Sanji demanded corning Luffy who just looked away "Don't play that game Luffy. Just tell me the truth and I won't be mad." Sanji lied then sighed and stood up "Well if you didn't do- wait what's with those crumbs on your face?" Sanji said leaning down then Luffy panicked and shouted "Oh crap left overs!" Then tried to get rid of the crumbs "YOU DID DO IT!" Sanji screamed kicking Luffy into the other side of the ship.
"See Nami my giant mouse trap isn't working anymore! I need a refrigerator with a lock on it!" Sanji complained just as Nami was going to agree with that statement out of the water shot a sea king.
"SEA KING!" Usopp screamed cowering behind Luffy as did Chopper. Sanji then looked around after taking a puff of his cigarette and said "I know now is not the time to be asking this but, has anyone seen Shura?" Chopper perked up "I thought she was in the kitchen with you!" He shouted but Sanji shook his head "No, she never came in." He responded but before anyone could think about where their missing comrade was they heard a loud shout.
"YE-HAW!" Shura shouted in a very fake but convincing southern accent. She was riding on top of the trashing sea king using its whisker's as a rein.
"AWESOME!" Luffy shouted standing up and running over getting ready to join Shura in her battle but was held back by both Zoro and Sanji.
"Idiot if you do that you'll drown!" They both shouted, but let go of Luffy when suddenly a storm cloud came over head the sea king and a bolt of lightning shocked it killing the thing dead. As it fell Shura jumped back onto the boat perfectly fine laughing.
"That was awesome! Well not the part being almost eaten but I've got to fight those things more often! They're so much fun~!" Shura laughed in a very Luffy like way only to be whacked on the back of the head by Chopper when his was in his human gorilla form.
"Idiot! You probably irritated your ribs! When I said walk around I didn't mean fight a monster!" He shouted at Shura who rubbed the back of her head. "Ow Chopper that hurt!" Shura whined in a very Luffy like way.
Then Vivi said "S-Shura-san h-how were you not affected by that lightning?" She stuttered then Shura laughed "I caused it I have lightning and fire chakra!" She said, she only received stupefied looks much like the ones she got at home when she talked about another culture or anime to her family.
"What's chatura?" Usopp questioned and Shura then laughed "Oh yeah! you guys don't know what chakra is!" Shura exclaimed bonking herself on the side of the head laughing. The crew sweat dropped for some weird reason Shura was in a very good mood.
Most the of the straw hats decided not to ruin this moment. So after about an hour of explaining what charka is most were able to get it. With the exception of Luffy. But let's be honest when does Luffy ever get anything?
"I see so charka doesn't exist in this world but the last one you were in." Nami said as Shura grinned "Nah, really Nami? Thanks for the info!" Shura replied cheerfully with sarcasm, it was really starting to creep the straw hats out about how… happy Shura was.
"So it's magic!" Luffy finally said hitting his hand into the other, Shura sweat dropped then sighed "Yes Luffy I'm a magical mystery world jumper." Shura said rubbing the back of her neck in exasperation. Everyone sighed then Zoro, Sanji, Usopp and Luffy took advantage of the newly roasted sea king.
Shura yawned and sat down on a chair to be joined by Vivi. "Shura-san I've very interested about this other world. Could you please explain to me how you learnt that you had two charka types?" Vivi said extremely interested in the last world that Shura encountered through her travels.
As Shura explained how her mind traveled back to the day Jiraiya was teaching her, Shibi and Minato about elemental jutsu.
"Now just take a piece a paper and put your charka into it, if it crumples up you have lightning, if it burns you have fire, if it splits in half you have wind, if it gets wet you have water, if it turns to dust you have earth. Got it?" Jiraiya explained as Shura was picking her ear with her pinky.
"Shura what did I just say?" Jiraiya questioned with a very demanding look on his face as he folded his arms. Shura looked over and grinned "You said you fucked Fugaku's mom." She replied causing Minato to erupt in giggles and Shibi to chuckle.
Shura really didn't seem to like Fugaku's mom did she? Jiraiya turned red then hit Shura on the head.
"NO YOU IDIOT!" He screamed at Shura who laughed "What she wouldn't take you?" She questioned infuriating Jiraiya even more. After a couple more hits. Shura finally quieted down and listened to Jiraiya re-explain his lesson.
Minato of course had wind, Shibi unsurprisingly had earth. When Shura put her charka in the paper crumpled up then burned. "Hey Jiraiya what does it mean if it crumples up then burns?" Shura questioned turning around to her sensei who blinked "Then you have both fire and lightning I guess." He said shrugging then Shura shouted when the fire licked her fingers causing her to drop the piece of paper and set half of the woods around them on fire.
By the time Shura was done with her story Vivi was in a fit of giggles "Y-You s-set h-half the w-w-woods on f-fire!" She exclaimed laughing as Shura pouted. "It's not funny! The hokage made me plant nine thousand trees to replace all of that without using jutsu." Shura complained only to cause Vivi to laugh at her even more. Shura pouted clearly upset that Vivi thought her being punished was funny.
By the time they reached Arabasta and docked in Nanohana and dealt with everything beforehand like in the anime.
"Okay everyone I want you to be on your best behavior." Nami spoke as if she was talking to children "Hai." Most of the crew chorused with the exception of Shura who was reading that book that she was given by Kureha. "Interesting…" Shura mumbled reading over an ability she had.
"Oi, Shura are you listening? Be on your best behavior! We don't need to attract attention!" Nami shouted but Vivi patted Nami on the shoulder "Nami in Shura-san's last world she was a ninja. I'm pretty sure she's able to sneak past without anyone noticing." Vivi said feeling a mixture of nervousness for her country and it's rebellion but happiness because she got to know the fire spitting female known as Shura better.
Shura blinked then looked up from the book "Huh? You say something Nami?" She questioned completely innocent and unaware for the moment. "Or her noticing for that matter." Vivi commented quietly at Shura's obviousness.
Once they finally docked everyone looked at the distant city in awe and excitement. "So that's what an Arabasta city is like…" Usopp said as Shura stood next to Luffy completely engrossed in her book as the young captain was bouncing off the walls over the thought of food.
"Okay everyone before we set off into Nanohana I'm only going to say this once more, I want you to be on your best behavior at all times." Nami said once more repeating her message for the third time. "Okay Nami-Swan~!" Sanji sang in his usual way and Zoro sighed.
"The two we should be most worried about just shot off." Zoro commented as a dust could was kicked up behind Luffy as he shouted "Let's go get food!" Shura followed slowly behind him not looking up once "Hai." Shura mumbled following Luffy.
"Who would ever think Shura would be such a book worm?" Sanji questioned while Nami shouted "HEY HOLD IT!" Usopp leaned over exasperated "Luffy's completely inhuman." He groaned as no one made an attempt to stop Shura from following Luffy. "What will we do?" Vivi questioned worried about her insane burnet nakama.
When Shura and Luffy were together no good came out of it.
"Don't worry. We'll just look for the loudest place we can find with the largest explosion nearby and they'll be there." Sanji said jumping from the ship onto shore, Usopp with a blank face said very dryly "He's right you know." Nami then smacked her forehead "Jeez, I wish Luffy would remember he has a bounty on his head and Shura would remember that she's an ex-marine. They can't just go around in public running carefree. Even more so in a country this large." She grumbled
"Leave them be, they'll be fine let's just go eat." Zoro said knowledgably as he climbed down the latter to the shore.
As the rest of the crew entered into Nanohana Luffy stood there in the middle of nowhere completely lost. Shura walked up behind him and bumped into him on accident. "Wha- why'd you stop?" Shura questioned putting her book away and looking around. "Where the hell are we Luffy?" Shura questioned still fairly calm as she looked around.
"I dunno." Was Luffy's only reply causing Shura to groan "You got us lost didn't you? Why is it every fucking guy I follow around hardly paying attention always manages to get us lost!" Shura shouted now back to her old self and thwacked Luffy on the back of the head.
"Ow! Shura!" Luffy whined loudly, Shura then dusted her hands on her cargo shorts "Looks like we have no choice but to head back the way we came." Shura said beginning to walk away when Luffy spotted a house nearby. Screaming food Luffy shot off towards it. Shura knowing the rest of the crew would kill her if she got separated from Luffy ran after him. "Luffy you idiot! Let's go back the way we came!" Shura screamed running after him.
After the marines had docked in Arabasta Smoker and Tashigi were out in the market district walking around. "I'm so glad you've gotten over your alcohol addiction." Tashigi said to Smoker who grunted quietly. Sure it took Tashigi attempting to murder him in his sleep to get him to go get help but he was glad it was over to according to the crew and Tashigi. Smoker said and did very embarrassing things that shall not be named for the want to live by the crew.
Let's just say one incident involved the song 'don't stop me now' by queen that Shura had taught the Smoker and marines during her time there, a table and women's clothing and a ladle. Then let's just leave it at that.
Tashigi was looking at some swords at a booth as Smoker was wondering when the straw hat crew was going to show up. He was sure Shura was miserable and probably had been tortured or abused by the crew.
Smoker then blew a puff of smoke. He'd probably have to assign her a therapist to help her deal with the trauma. Poor Shura she never asked to be kidnapped and abused.
"I TOLD YOU TO GO BACK THE OTHER WAY IDIOT!" Shura screamed stomping Luffy's head into the ground as he shouted for Shura to stop. "No! If we die out here and you don't make it to heaven I'm going to come down to hell every day and PERSONALLY kick your fucking ass!" Shura shouted kicking Luffy into large bags next to the house
"Hey, what's this?" Luffy questioned when one of the bags opened from the force that Shura kicked him into them. "I dunno it's probably spice. A lot of dessert countries like spicy food." Shura said leaning onto one post now calm because she took out all her anger on Luffy. Her personal rubber punching bag. Luffy stuck his finger in it and licked some of the green powder off of it.
"BLECH! It's horrible! Hey Shura taste this!" Luffy yelled from outside the hut while the owner was inside trembling while holding on to a sword. "Hell no! If it's poison I don't want to die with you!" Shura shouted at Luffy who grumbled about the powder tasting horrible.
Then Luffy spotted a stove outside and decided to burn it. "You know I've noticed something, you've been acting on impulse all day." Shura mused as the powder turned into smoke and the sky got darker outside.
After the long boring scene of fighting with the old man. Shura and Luffy headed back towards Nanohana. Or the way Luffy thought it was, Shura just followed him because her sense of direction wasn't any better than Luffy's.
Shura was perfectly fine with the climate in this place while Luffy on the other hand was using a stick as a walker begging for food.
"Oh shut your trap." Shura said as Luffy let out another whine. "I… I'm hungry!" Shura sighed and rolled her eyes. "How can you be hungry I let you eat all the food that old man gave us!" Shura exclaimed, Luffy looked over as if he had been beat "I ate it too fast. It's like I didn't eat anything at all!" he exclaimed with his tongue sticking out. "Baka." Was Shura's only reply
"Where's the town! WHERE THE HELL IS THE FOOD-!" Luffy screamed loudly but received no answer from the lonely dessert. Then he stared off in the distance as if seeing something and said "Food!" he exclaimed slowly grinning. Shura was turned around talking about something then Luffy shouted "IT'S FOOD!" Running off in the direction of Nanohana "Luffy…?" Shura questioned turning around and then saw the dust cloud that the boy had picked up then Shura shouted "W-Wait a second Luffy!" running after him.
After getting bored with listening to Tashigi mindlessly blab to some shop keeper about swords Smoker decided to go for a walk to see if he could find any signs of Luffy being in the city. After walking past the dispersing crowd in front of the Spice Bean he decided to go inside to see what had caused the racket and maybe get something to eat or if he was lucky find Straw hat Luffy there.
Smoker grunted like a blood hound on a scent and went inside.
"Ah, I'm full." Ace said finishing up his last plate picking his teeth with a tooth pick. "By the way Grandpa." Ace said looking up at the master of the Spice Bean. "What?" the old man said questionably as Ace leaned over to his backpack and pulled out a wanted poster of Luffy.
"This guy hasn't come into town has he? A pirate wearing a straw-hat…" He questioned as the man eyed the poster carefully but before he could answer Smoker said "I guess you don't have a problem eating in public do you? Commander of the Whitebeard pirates, second division. Portgas D. Ace." Smoker called Ace out while Ace glared down at his cup in his hand not liking that Smoker turned up as Ace was looking for Luffy.
"W-Whitebeard!" The old man exclaimed with wide eyes horrified, "The Whitebeard pirates!" People began to freak out about Ace being well himself and a member of the Whitebeard pirates. "What business does an infamous pirate like you have in this country?" Smoker questioned in his usual gruff way. Ace sat his cup down then turned around to Smoker "I'm searching, for my little brother."
"FOOD~!" Luffy screamed now dragging Shura behind him who even she was having trouble keeping up with Luffy as he ran through the city "W-What's with this weird smell getting in the way of the scent of food!" Luffy shouted sniffing the air. Shura was mildly disturbed that Luffy could track down food like this. But before she could say anything Luffy's eyes widened and he shouted "THERE IT IS! A RESTAURANT!" Shura then shouted "Wait Luffy n-!" But she didn't get to finish her sentence because of Luffy cutting her off to yell something…
Back with Smoker and Ace, they were having a stare down much like in the anime. "So then… what should I do?" Ace questioned grinning, Smoker stared at him "Sit there and let me arrest you." He said seriously "Nah, no thanks. I rather not." Ace said grinning still; Smoker still staring at Ace then said "Well, that's what I expected." Then he sighed "Right now, I'm looking for a different pirate." He stated his blood boiled at that thought of the grinning idiot named Monkey D. Luffy. "To be honest I'm not really all that interested in your head." Smoker went on to say despite his boiling blood.
"Then let me go." Ace said completely relaxed and unthreatened by Smoker. Smoker glared at him of course a pirate can't understand that it wasn't that easy for him to do. His own justice wouldn't allow it. "I can't do that…" Smoker stated activating his powers; Ace smirked knowing where this was going. Tension in the room grew as some of the citizens debated leaving before they got hurt in the process of the fight.
"As long as I'm a marine and you're a pirate." Smoker said lowering himself slightly into a fighting position. Ace sat there leaning onto the bar with his legs crossed "What a dumb reason… Shall we have some fun then?" He said challenging Smoker who glared wordlessly.
"Wait Luffy n-!" Shura shouted but Luffy cut her off "GOMU GOMU NO ROCKET!" He shouted pulling Shura along with him. Luffy was laughing and Shura was screaming bloody murder. Somehow in the process Shura ended up crashing into some random guy and Luffy crashed into Smoker who crashed into Ace knocking the two men through the wall.
Luffy landed perfectly fine not realizing what he just did and laughed in victory. "A restaurant! We finally found one! Now we can eat! I'm starving!" He shouted pumped up over food. Shura sat up slowly her eyes spinning with a bowl of noodles for a hat. "I'm going to fucking murder him one day." She said dazed and then fell over trying to get over the shock of impact. Luffy ran up to the bar and demanded food from the old man. The old man told him that he should leave but Luffy didn't listen. While this was all happening Shura sat up once more still a bit dizzy and not thinking properly.
"Here have a napkin." A very polite young man said handing Shura napkin. Shura looked at the boy for a moment thinking faintly that he looked filmier but shrugged him off as an extra that she seen on the anime before. "Thanks very much." Shura mumbled wiping her face the boy smiled then headed off some place that Shura didn't bother to see. Then she stood up with intent of murder in her eyes. "LUFFY!" She shouted demonically, Luffy turned around with food stuffed in his mouth "What you want some too Shura?" He questioned spitting food on Shura face.
Shura took the napkin and wiped her face off once more. "I'M GOING TO MURDER YOU AND BRING YOU BACK THEN KILL YOU AGAIN!" She screamed at Luffy. Then Shura glared at Luffy who was eating.
"Do I need to prove to you that I have that ability?" Shura hissed darkly, Luffy who swallowed his mouth food "If you wanted the rice balls you should've just said so you don't have to get mad about it." He said not getting that Shura was serious. Shura then grabbed him by the throat and began choking him. "You fucking idiot! I could've been killed! That's it when we get outside I'm summoning Carlos so he can EAT you!" Shura screamed at him, while it was happening Luffy somehow managed to stuff food down his throat even though Shura had a death grip on his throat.
All the people in the restaurant sweat dropped at the two burnets. Shura shook Luffy violently then stopped for a second when she noticed the hole. "What the hell is the hole there for? Are you remolding?" Shura questioned forgetting that Luffy had caused it because of how long it had been since the time she had seen this ark. "YOU TWO CAUSED IT!" The cook and three men shouted, Shura let go of Luffy's throat and they both said "We did? When?"
Luffy took a swig of water then looked over at the three men "So did you hire some comedians or something?" he asked motioning towards the three men. The cook and the three men sighed roughly exasperated with the two burnets.
Ace who managed to climb out of the rumble grumbling about how whoever did that was an asshole. But when he got back into the building that he was sent out of he saw that this asshole was his little brother and his very violent girlfriend.
"Luff-!" Ace went to exclaim to catch his attention but Smoker pushed Ace down face first screaming "Straw hat!" Shura who had her back turned conversing with some girls asking them if they ran into a blonde pervert in a suit named Sanji so she could figure out where the others were didn't notice that Smoker was there and Smoker didn't notice Shura was there ether.
Smoker stood in front of Luffy who was eating. After a few seconds Smoker yelled "Would you stop eating!" Luffy in the mist of his gorging of food was trying to figure out who Smoker was and why he felt like he had seen him some where before.
"Oh crap Smoker!" Luffy shouted then swallowed his meal whole and shot off with Smoker hot on his trail.
"Luffy wait up it's me!" Ace shouted running after the two then Shura perked up hearing Ace shout Luffy's name and shot off after them before she could lose sight of Luffy as she screamed after him "Luffy you idiot I told you not to run off like that!"
"Wait a second… THEY DIDN'T PAY ME!" The cook shouted angry with the dine and dashers.
As they were running after chasing Luffy, Smoker yelled for Tashigi.
"TASHIGI!" he yelled while he was chasing after Luffy who was also being chased by his brother and his crew mate.
Tashigi said something about towels and Arabasta being a hot country but was cut off by Smoker. "CATCH HIM IT'S STRAW HAT!" He shouted, Tashigi was a bit surprised that Smoker wasn't drunk but followed his orders "Straw hat?" She said then pulled out her sword to attack Luffy "I'll cut him down!" She shouted running up to Luffy who still had a mouth full of food. But Luffy dodged her and jumped on top of a building only to be chased by Smoker.
Back with Shura she was running around chasing anyone with a straw hat and a red vest. It was strange there was a lot more people in Arabasta dressed like Luffy than she thought there would be.
Shura finally stopped a moment and sighed roughly. "Where the hell is he-?" Shura shouted irritated by her idiot captain. "If only I could get higher than these buildings I might be able to find him faster." Shura mumbled to herself then it dawned on her. "Duh." She said smacking her forehead, and then she began forming hand signs for a summoning jutsu to try and summon Carlos to help her look for Luffy.
She smacked her hand to the sand on the ground, then a giant puff of smoke appeared and Shura felt herself being elevated by the snake that she had summoned. Finally when the dust began to clear she sweat dropped Carlos was taller than she remembered. Like twenty stories taller than she remembered.
She shrugged maybe he had a growth spurt or something. "Hey Carlos could you help me find Luffy. That black haired guy with the straw hat and red vest from last time I su-sum-summon-summoned… Y-Y-yo-you." Shura said leaning down towards the snake's mouth and her eyes slowly widened then she began to have trouble speaking when she saw who the snake was.
"Who's Carlos?" Manda questioned hissing on the 's' in the words, Shura was frozen in her spot staring at Manda completely terrified. 'I… must of… put too much charka into my summon. I just summoned the snake boss.' Shura thought crying on the inside about what she had just done.
"Are you going to give me a sacrifice for my task that I will do for you or am I going to have to eat you?" Manda questioned, Shura then came back to life. "Manda-sir, ugh I kinda didn't mean to summon you. NOT that I wouldn't want to I mean common you're the snake boss the greatest of them all. So I hope you understand my mistake on my part and just go back to your world… Please…?" Shura said basically begging, Manda stared at her for a second pondering about how Shura was basically a beginner at summoning and would make mistakes such as that and a good summoned animal would let her off easy.
Too bad Manda wasn't good.
So he snapped at Shura trying to eat her for wasting his time. But somehow Shura managed to dodge it and landed hit the ground running for her life with Manda chasing after her. "Fuck me! Shit fuck!" Shura cursed running away with tears in her eyes and wondering who was the little girl screaming. Then she realized it was her.
Needless to say a fair amount people were caught in the cross fire of a thirty something story snake running around a small city like Nanohana chasing after Shura.
"Why can't I ever catch I break? I hate summoning jutsu!" Shura shouted running down an alley hoping that it was tight enough that Manda couldn't come in after her. She began to form the ram hand sign trying to release the jutsu but Manda wouldn't poof away.
"Oh right… Bosses leave on their own accord…!" Shura shouted now crying her eyes out "I'm SO screwed!"
With the rest of the straw hat crew, they were hiding behind a ruined old building waiting for Luffy and Shura.
"I hope they're okay." Vivi said concerned for the two burnets, "What can we do? Shura and Luffy are the most impossible people I've met. When those two get together and plot something an angel dies in heaven." Nami said shrugging, Zoro rolled his eyes and said "Says the devil's advocate herself."
Sanji respond by hitting Zoro "Don't talk about Nami-san like that moss head!" Sanji shouted this caused Zoro's temper to flare up "You want to go Shitty cook!" Zoro exclaimed, Usopp being the rational coward he is broke the fight up. "Oi, guys calm down we don't want to attract attention isn't that why we're hiding in the first place?" He said causing the two to settle down. But not without grumbles.
"None the less we should leave. You guys forgot to mention about running into Smoker in the market district." Chopper said from his spot in the shade, "Chopper has a point." Nami said getting up only to be pulled down by Zoro. "Everyone get down." He ordered receiving questioning looks. "What is it?" Usopp questioned "Marines… they're chasing after someone." Zoro said, Nami leaned over "it's sounds like they're making a lot of noise over them too." She said listening closely.
"DON'T LET HIM ESCAPE!" One marine shouted, the whole crew was determined to capture Luffy and 'rescue' Shura from the clutches of the straw hats "AFTER HIM!" Another marine shouted, by now the straws (excluding Shura and Luffy) were listening to the marines shout things to one another.
"It's probably just some dumbass pirate running all over the place." Sanji stated not really caring about this person or the marines. Everyone paused for a moment and looked at one another "Dumbass pirate?" They exclaimed all at once.
Then in the background Luffy ran by with marines chasing after him "HALT STRAW HAT!" they screamed as Luffy screamed for his life. Then came back the other way catching his crew's attention "IT'S YOU!" They screamed in complete unison, this caused Luffy to look over "Yo Zoro!" Luffy shouted seeing his first mate in the group of Nakama. "Whoa everyone's over there too. But… where's Shura?" Luffy shouted then began to run over to him "IDIOT! Don't come over here until you lost them!" Zoro screamed at Luffy, the marines then spotted the rest of the crew "It's the straw hat pirate's we've sighted them!" One marine shouted pointing over in the direction that they were in.
"Hey what should we do? They're getting closer!" Usopp exclaimed, behind them Nami, Sanji, and Vivi were all packing up. "The only option we have is to run." Nami said then Vivi said "We have to get back to the ship!"
Luffy then ran by and screamed "What's taking you guys so long? Let's get going!" The rest of the crew then yelled "YOU! MORON!"
"Halt you won't escape!" A marine yelled then Smoker said "Everyone fall back!" "Captain!" The same marine shouted once he saw Smoker "The straw hat is mine!" he shouted with determination burning in his eyes.
"Ah, he caught up with me!" Luffy shouted panicking because Smoker was right behind him and his crew. Just as Smoker was about to capture Luffy, Ace stepped in and saved the day. "You again…" Smoker growled seeing Ace "Give it up." Ace replied grinning at Smoker "You may be smoke but I am fire. With our powers a battle would be pointless." Ace said, the straw hats amazed stood by wondering who Ace was and why he saved them. While Ace explained to Luffy what fruit he had eaten. The marines asked Smoker for his orders.
"We can't talk like this right now Luffy, you guys right for it I'll catch up later!" Ace shouted at Luffy, Luffy took this as a time to run off just as his brother and ordered.
When the Straw hat's left Smoker and Ace begun their second show down that day.
"I don't get it. Why'd you help him?" Smoker questioned with his arms crossed, Ace chuckled "Having a little brother who's a bit on the slow side naturally makes responsible older ones worry." He replied, but before Smoker could question what Ace meant by 'little brother'. Shura ran by screaming with Manda chasing after her.
"SOMEONE HELP ME! I HATE SNAKES!" She screamed running right by Smoker and Ace, the marines, Smoker, and Ace couldn't help but look over and sweat drop.
"I know we're supposed to be enemies but… Did you see…?" Ace questioned, Smoker's eyes widened recognizing who it was running from the snake.
"SHURA!" Smoker shouted charging after her forgetting all about Ace and the other straw hats.
"Shit! I don't want to die like this! I'm starting to miss being hit by trucks and being poisoned! I DON'T WANT TO BE SNAKE FOOD!" Shura shouted with tears on the rims of her eyes as she ran away
"WHY DO I HAVE ALL THE BAD LUCK!" Shura screamed
