"….YOUR HEAD IS MINE!"

THUM!

Their fist collided causing a world of cold white. The ensuing shockwave hit flinching their eye's through the haze. Their eye's locked together, Jerome's 'hell fire' clenched through his Shaun's fist. In a flash Jerome smashed through his knuckle brace. Shaun was strong and just from one punch, he has strange powers as well.

"You ate a devil fruit." Jerome noted, amused. "I'm tired of fighting, I should get back to my friends anyway." He flexed his fingers, noticing some slight signs of scales. "Razzle you want ta' come?" A few more flexes and his hand was human again.

"Do you have a pool?" Razzle asked him.

"No, but we have a big fridge." Jerome answered.

"Mmmm, okay, but I should get home later." Razzle muttered.

Shaun stiffed, a hand drifting a bowstaff from his back. Making Jerome frown.

"I said I was done fighting." Jerome repeated.

Groaning Shaun hoisted his legs and pinned Jerome to the ground. "Where is she pirate?! Where is Kya?! I won't leave this island until I get her back. Give her back and the rest of the children you stole!" Shaun demanded, roughly.

"I don't know what your talking about. I came here for an adventure and I think I had enough of that, now let me leave." Jerome resolved himself. He didn't know what Shaun meant and if he wasn't going to be nice about it, he wouldn't care. He pushed Shaun off him and turned his back on his murderous rage.

"Don't turn your back on me."

Jerome stayed silent towards him. "Razzle have anymore …"

"Hell zone!"

Glowing cards fluttered around Jerome. Covering any form of escape, sparks lit up.

"Hmmph," Shaun raised a single hand, the glowing cards came at him at once. Cards of painful glow, shot passed him agonising Jerome. The cards had pierced him behind and blew him in the face.

Jerome blew the fire out his nose. "I said … ENOUGH!"

Jerome shot his eye's open. The invisible force knocked out Shaun and Razzle, unintentionally. They still appeared too be breathing.

He didn't have the intention on knocking out Razzle. He knew, he had to take her back to the ship. The problem was if he did that for her it would have too be done for Shaun as well.


"YOU CAN'T SPELL SLAUGHTER WITHOUT LAUGHTER!"

"Well it looks like things got interesting." Crash said, with a devilish smirk on his face. He couldn't help, but bulk at the mans battle cry as he lashed at him. It took less than a thought too coat his arm is bones and rose his arm defending against his attack.

CLANG!

Crash didn't recognize what was wrong with Tegami. But he was clearly outraged. He heard Nora and the other kids shouting from the background. They turned to be his first priority. "Nora! You get the kids out of here now!"

Her alarmed expression turned to determination. "You got! Let's go kids." Nora grabbed the children and began to run off, the children's cry being heard after her departure.

"Wait we have too save, Mr. Tegami!"

"He helped us now we help him!"

"Ms. Nora watch out!" The female twin shrieked.

Tegami came down at Nora with Suzumebachi in the air. Lee blocked Tegami's attack with his own sword. Giving a smile that can only be held by man with the name 'Trafalgar'. Not looking back Nora kept her pace. Knowing that going after her would be meaningless Tegami gave up. Instead his intention focused on Lee and Crash now side by side.

"I guess you two are going to kill my boredom." Tegami muttered before running towards the pair.

"Lee stay back I'll take on Tegami." Crash said, as he stepped in his stance.

"No, you can step back and let me fight." Lee argued.

"What…" Lee lunged passed Crash with his sword in front.

Lee ran towards Tegami with surprising speed. Tegami ran to meet Crash midway, he then drew out his Suzumebachi. Lee swung his sword at Tegami who blocked with his. Lee twisted around attempting to kick him in the face, which Tegami blocked with his free hand. Tegami then grabbed his leg and tossed him in the air. "I'll meet you in hell!"

Tegami leapt into the air, thrusting his sword forward as he got closer to Lee. A few things happened in the next moment. One, Tegami savoured the blood in the air. Two, a leg hit the ground like a brick. Three, Lee hit the ground with a severed leg.

"For some reason I thought you would be a better fighter." Tegami said as he came down. Soon making his way towards Lee, swinging Suzumebachi in the air.

Without warning, Crash launched himself towards Tegami, who jumps back and swings his foot in Crash's side. Sending him rolling in the grass and for some reason laughing. Crash stopped rolling and rose to his feet. "Come on Tegami, I thought you would be stronger than that." Crash walked slowly towards Tegami. "I don't know what's wrong with you, but cutting off his leg was unacceptable. Now I have to teach you a lesson."

"I was supposed to be taught a lesson when I was sent to Impel Down. But look I'm still killing and being a pirate." Tegami responded.

"Asshole." Crash snickered before launching towards Tegami again. Tegami moves swiftly aside and slams an elbow in Crash back, sending him to the edge of the forest. Crash got up wiping the blood from his mouth. He stepped and flickered away.

BONK!

[1] "Death chop!" Crash smashed his bone humerus into Tegami's head. Before he could react, Crash flickered away again. He flickered in front of him delivering multiple punches and kicks. About to punch him once more Tegami grabbed one of his hands and punched Crash open face.

"Stop!"

Tegami and Crash turned their attention to Lee with his leg back together. He held a abnormal looking man in his head. Three pearl necklaces around his neck blue, red, and white. A navy blue coat wearing it like a coat. Also a black tricorn hat with the symbol of Big mom. "Why are you two still fighting?"

A question marked hovered over his head. "Wait a second, if your holding him then …TEGAMI YOU BASTARD!" Crash shouted.

"Can someone tell me what's going on because I have no idea?" Tegami asked scratching his head more confused then anybody else.

(Flashback)

"What…" Lee lunged passed Crash with he's sword in front.

"There is a man hiding in the tree's. He's the one controlling Tegami, if I can get the chance I can take him down." Lee whispered into Crash's ear.

While Tegami was distracted with Crash, Lee took the chance to reconnect his leg. He let his devil fruit does what it naturally did and stitch up his leg. He stood up and made his way over to the man's hiding spot.

"Wait what are you?! ….…" Lee sliced open Toru's chest.

He knew Tegami should've stopped fighting by now. Oddly when he looked over Crash had just hit Tegami over the head and the fight continued.

"What's going on?" Lee stroked his goatee.

(End of flashback)

"Oh yeah, I snapped back in and realized we were fighting. I wanted to keep it going so I didn't stop." Tegami admitted, laughing at himself.

Crash was expressionless. Looking at the man with a blank look. "Tegami I would kill you if I could."


"ATTACK!" The Big mom pirates let out a battle cry as they leaped on the Lazy Wolf. Travious was the first to take action.

"No one said you could fight on the wolf. Punishment! …" Like before a hurricane unlunleashed on the ship sending the weaker members flying off the ship.

"Cry, Alva." Cassidy flicked her sword causing it to scream. "YAAAAAAAAAA~!" Alva screamed the attack aimed at the enemy, her allies remained unfazed. Her blade covered in a red aura, the redhead found herself cutting the steal of her enemy. Wounds opened and blood was spilled, she was no stranger to a sword.

Dante and Luna currently fought with a walking talking arachnid, named Reggie. The arachnid lunged himself towards Luna who was ready.

"Air cutter!" Luna wings launched at a blade of air. The violence of the air lacerated Reggie allover gashing up wounds in the spider man. Instead of going in for another attack, Luna flapped her wings a soured in the air.

Reggie recovered from the attack only to have a rifle shoved in his mouth.

"Goodbye." Dante said nonchalantly.

BANG!

Dante fired, sending the man flying back. The latter still aimed his gun while still looking up. "You ready Luna!"

"Ready!" Luna answered flying down. She narrowed her eye's in getting a perfect aim for his weak point. "Here goes nothing, air cutter!" BAP!-BAP!-BAP!-BAP!-BAP!-BAP! Luna delivered many slicing razors to Reggie's back. The spider hissed before firing a web ball at Luna. Catching her by the wings.

"I never had a bird before." Reggie licked his lips. "Don't worry this won't hurt."

"WHITE BEAM!"BAM! A white light hit Reggie square in the face, burning his body and screaming in pain. It revealed to be Dante ready for another shot. "Okay, Luna get ready this might hurt."

Luna widened his eye's at what he said. "Wait! He's not…hah!"

TABANG!

The webs around her burned off with the shot of Dante's rifle. Luna only mostly screamed in pain, Darrius saw this and angrily charged at Dante.

He sent a kick that Dante blocked with his rifle. "Dante you bastard! How dare you do that to Luna!"

"I needed to get her out somehow didn't I." Dante responded.

"Cut her out don't shoot her out!" Darrius argued.

Reggie rose up, he's face boiled red with anger and annoyance. "Are you kidding me, arguing in the middle of a fight. That isn't only annoying, but it's incredibly stupid." PLURT! Reggie fired webbing around Dante and Darrius, trapping them both up.

"Dammit, Dante look what you did!" Shouted Darrius.

"My fault! This wouldn't have happened if it wasn't for you!" Dante shouted.

Even more annoyed than before, Reggie lunged towards both them. "YOU'RE DOING IT AGAIN, NOW YOUR REALLY PISSING ME OFF!"

SWOOP

Reggie shut his mouth when he was suddenly swooped in the air. He looked up seeing Luna in still in half form and suddenly began pleading for his life. Luna flown him to unnatural heights; she let go and Reggie saw everything flash before he's eye's. Before he went SPALT on the ground.

Meanwhile Katherine is facing off with Pekoms. The latter however didn't seem that much interested as he flipped through some pages. He came to a picture of Kat that resembled her wanted poster.

"Ha, your Katherine Cross." Pekoms stated.

"So what if I am, what does that have to do with anything?" Katherine barked.

Pekoms tucked the paper back in before answering her question. "Nothing, other than meeting a man not long ago looking for you. He told us if we met that you should call him immediately."

Katherine flinched wondering what she meant. Then something hit her out of the blank part of memory. "Wait! He couldn't mean …no. Why would he?…"

(Flashback)

"Katherine I give you one choice, return to the kingdom or die beside these pirate scum!" Jesse offered not giving her much of a choice behind him was five shadowy figures she knew that she couldn't take. But then she remembered Megalodon was beside her and so was Wendy. Then the back of the rest of her crew.

"I'll keep fighting! I will never return to that kingdom, so you might as well take my life! But I warn you we won't go down easy!" Suddenly everything was in place her fingers, hands, eye's, sword. She was ready to take on whatever came on. "CHARGE!"

Just like that blood splattered.

(End of flashback)

BAP!

Pekoms haki fist pounded against Katherine's stomach. With a lions roar Pekoms charged at Katherine his sword ready to stab her.

KLANG

Despite the pain aching, Katherine blocked Pekoms sword with her own. "Dang it! That punch really did something, I can barely breath." Katherine rolled backwards gaining some distance between her and Pekoms. From her POV she could see Pekoms coming towards her as she stopped.

"One sword style: Lions song!" Klink! Katherine cut passed Pekoms, leaving the latter with a confused look.Skish! Both her left and right arms erupted with a blood gash.

Pekoms laughed at her misfortune. "Hahaha! Now die!"

Dante quickly ran and tried to intercept the attack, but he was too late.

Klang!


The constant mumbling and the snoring, then some yells of 'SHUT UP'. But what really got him was the sound of crying. Seiran opened his eye's, the first thing coming to mind was his hit on the head. "I knew we shouldn't have trusted that woman. I'm a disgrace to the assassin name!" He sorrowed banging his head on the sea stone bars. "I'm filthy assassin scum! I don't deserve to live!"

As he banged his head he notice not only was he in a cage, but he was also tied up. Not only so, but he was moving and crying kids. "Wait can one of you explain to me what's going on?"

A whipping girl balled her eye's up. "Big moms gonna eat us!"

"Big mom? I'm such an idiot I should've known this was her island." Seiran angrily thought. "Why are you all here, what happened to your parents?"

"They stole us!" One of the boys cried.

"Ugh! Martel wake up!" He ordered the sleeping man next to him. When he still sleep Seiran did what he could and kicked him awake.

"What!" Martel screamed waking up.

"Wake up we have to get out of here." Seiran told him.

"I said shut up!"

Whip!

"Ow!/Ow!" The man above whipped them both.

Seiran scooted up against Martel and whispered in his hear. "Cut me out so we can escape."

"I would, but I don't have anything for it. They took away my weapons."

"Crap me two."

"It could be worse." Martel said, earning a wince from Seiran. "We could be weaponless at an island filled with okama." [2]

"I highly doubt anyone could end up in that situation." Seiran said.


At Big Moms house the Big woman herself had everyone cheering her on for no apparent reason at all. One of her many followers informed her that a woman arrived for their meeting. Big mom called her in and the woman walked in clapping for herself. The woman was in a red dress and had red highlights.

"Greetings Charlotte, would you like a drink?" Clara offered.

"…, DON'T TRY TO BE FRIENDLY TO ME!"

"No. Okay then let's get down to business." Clara took a sip of her wine, taking the situation more calm then anyone else in the room. "Do you have my children ready. The Marines scientists would love some new specimen. For me that means a lot of money for me."

"What about my half the deal? I want my candy!" Charlotte growled shaking the room whole.

"We understand that. Trust me, you just live to your part of the bargain and we deliver. That's how the underground society works."

A few minutes later some man came in carrying the cage that held her prisoners. "Argh!" Charlotte growled her first sight being two man that defiantly were not children. Clara took notice of this as well and walked up to Seiran. Pulling his face through the cage and rubbing it seductively.

"That's odd I would have never thought I would run into my, Neko again." Clara smiled while twirling his blue hair. All Seiran did was let the woman proceed while Martel sat there angry with jealousy. "Tell me how's Harvey doing?"

"I haven't seen Harvey in a while now. I'm guessing you haven't been in contact?" Seiran responded.

"No I haven't, not after he broke my heart." Clara lips moved in closer to Seiran's. "I'm coming in hot…" Their eye's locked and there soft smooth lips joined. Clara wished he wasn't behind bars so she could pull him in closer. Clara then realized her surroundings and pulled away. "I should've chose you."

"That might be a problem, Harvey knows I'm out." Seiran informed her, making her eye's widened.

Suddenly the two no longer became the only people in the world. Reactions from mostly everyone was confusion. No one however could be more disturbed than Martel or Big Mom. Having a face that described epic fail.

"I have to go." Carla created more distance between them. She practically sprinted away. She could not believe she ran into him. "Why Harvey? If are paths cross again please understand."

Carla sprinted to Big Mom already coming up with a thousand ways to convince her. "Charlotte, I know this might not be expected, but let me take the children and one of the man."

Charlotte leaned in, her giant head face to face with Carla's. "What about the other? Are you going to take him too?"

Carla turned back to Martel without a single look of pity. "Eat him for all I care. I just want my Neko."

Off from the distance Martel blew his top off. "HEY SCREW YOU LADY, I HAVE HALF A MIND TO…kgh!" Seiran kicked him in the gut quieting him up.

Charlotte rose back to her giant throne. "Fine, I expect my candy in in two days!"

"Of course." Carla snapped her fingers signaling her companies heads up. "Men carry the cage to the ship, but make sure to get rid of the hairy one first."


Jerome carried Razzle and Shaun all the way back. Neither of them showed signs of waking up soon, he remembered he should control his haki more. He wondered what was going back on at the ship. He hopped Seiran and Martel cooked up something good.

His daydreaming was put to a halt when he smelled a hint of lemon.

"Jerome!"

Jerome looked over to face the speaker. It was Nora carrying two kids in her arms, with Tegami, Crash, and Lee behind them.

Jerome titled his head making sure he was seeing this right. "Nora do you have kids?"

"Yes, this is Onion and Pepper." Nora introduced.

"Are they mine?" Jerome asked.

Nora blushed red while Crash and Tegami cracked with laughter. "No,no, no! Me and Tegami found them. Their not yours in anyway!"

"As much as I want to keep laughing at this shit. We should really get back to the Wolf." Tegami said.

"Jerome as long as we're asking questions. Who are these two?" Crash asked pointing to Razzle and Shaun.

"This is Razzle and this is…uh? Let's call him pop tart for now." Jerome laughed.


A/N: Now I could easily keep this going, but I rather keep the suspense up. Second I would like to thank XFangHeartX for letting me use Toru and Reggie. Third those references.

[1] You gotta love thos Soul Eater references. It's actually an attack used by a character named Lord Death. I just thought that would be fitting in a way.

[2] This is obviously referencing Sanji. I've been thinking about interactions between the two crews as of late.

Finally I decided to start responding to reviews here.

Carolyn12: Yes these fights were fun to write. I also enjoy writing the Dante/Kat moments, but I try not to have it be the main focus. In other words I going to have them talk to others and not just each other.

V God22: He's warming up to her, but give it some more time.

Ogrespi: He is one hungry boy I wonder how they feed him three times a day. Trust me, Luna's dad is going to get his "POW" right in the kisser. Hope the wait was worth it because it looks like Sunday might be my regular update.

DaLightning Kid: I found it almost hard to write. Since we have no real idea how strong Pekoms is or Tambourine for that matter. Apparently Tegami was put in a hypnosis that's what made him fight. For the while he was anyway.

Ice Ninja Luna: Funny because I wrote it naturally. Guess the idea of that stuck since they are basically on a candy island.

P. S. Sundays might just be the days a regularly update. Since I have some other fics that need some love two. But two of them are close to finished so updates might happen often after that.
