Chapter Twelve
Anne smiled she could not believe how good she was feeling. She didn't even know how sick she had been feeling. Since she was just worried about Nami she thought that was all. But since she was no longer sick she had so much energy. She had been enjoying her day so much. She smiled seeing up ahead a strange cloud over the ocean. She went to go tell Nami but her vision went black as her snores could be heard when you where close to her. She yawn hearing a loud bang turning she quickly saw Luffy flying into a wall by a strange man.
Zoro went to attack Bon Clay but he heard a loud pop and Anne appeared in front of him holding an ice sword to his throat. There was a powerful pressure on the deck. "Hey! Hey calm down!" Anne paused hearing Luffys voice. She looked and had a double take seeing it was Luffy wearing some strange clothes.
Luffy sat up and looked having stars in his eyes. "SO COOL!" He yelled while smiling.
"That is not all." He went to show his powers in more detail Only when he tried to touch Anne's face she held her hand up. "No don't." She said while smirking.
Anne went to go and sit on a railing up above while watching everything that went on when he was showing off his powers. Anne looked to the sky as she felt the wind against her skin. She smiled as the sun was beating down on her face. And then she over heard her brother down below dancing with Bon Clay. She got up and jumped up grabbing a rope that was from the sail and used it to climb up to the crows nest.
Sitting up there she could see his ship heading towards them. She shook her head and looked off to see Alabasta in the distance. While sitting there she had her hand frozen and started to use her powers in a different way to make a snow man. She smiled as she looked at the goofy snow man. She keep working on it and her mind started to wonder off to her time on Moby Dick thinking of Pop, Ace, Thatch, and Marco. She looked at the snow man glaring at it seeing that it had ended up looking like him. She waved her hand sending a red light at it blasting the snow man apart.
Usopp was freaking out since Bon Clay was Mr. Two and he could turn into any of them. Except for Anna and Sanji. Only for a huge amount of snow to land on him. Making him look like a snowman. Luffy looked at him and started to laugh along with the rest of the crew. Usopp groaned. "REALLY ANNE!" He yelled thinking she did it on purpose.
Anne looked down to see Usopp covered in snow making her giggle.
"Sorry about that." She said smiling.
"Hey why don't you come down here we have a problem!" Nami yelled.
Anne smiled and put her hands on the railing and made ice and started to form a Ice slide to the ground and was standing next to Luffy a moment latter. "Hey Luffy."
She took his hat messing up his hair. Only for Luffy to take his hat back quickly. He was smiling at her.
"So where is the fire."
Usopp started explaining what happen and how it was a problem that Bon Clay could change into all of them. Knowing now what they all look like.
Anne nodded "don't worry we will figure something out. And we are almost to Alabasta."
Vivi quickly ran to the edge of the ship. She started to smile and had a glow on her face full of joy seeing her pride and joy. Her treasure and she was not going to let some pirate working for the world government destroy her or her own people.
Everyone was starting to relax before they reached the shore. Anne was sitting with Chopper who was smiling because she had turned to ice to keep him cool. Anne looked to Vivi "so how does the Baroque system work. You have never told us this."
Vivi sighed sitting down while the rest of the crew gathered around to listen.
"The system is simple. At the top is Crocodile, Aka Mr. 0. There are 13 Agents who take orders directly from the boss. There are teams 12 men and 1 animal. All their names are Mr. Plus a number. They are paired with a female agent who compliment their particular powers. Mr. 13 and Miss. Friday in that they punish the other agents for failure. All Agents from Mr. 5 and up are called officer agents. Most of them have Devil fruit powers. They don't act unless the business is extremely important. Below them are the-"
Anne raised her hand, "Ok I know the mens code name but what the women and anything you know about them."
"Well Mr. 0 is with Miss. All Sunday. I don't know much about her and you all meet her. Mr. 1 is with Miss. Double Finger. I hear she is bad news. Her and her partner deal with blades." This peaked Zoro who was smiling. "Mr. 2 is by himself. Mr. 3 is with Miss. Golden week and you meet them. Now Mr. 4 is said to be on the slow side. He is partnered up with Miss. Merry Christmas. Though she will change her name to Miss. Groundhog Day. She is to be very rude and loud. Mr. 5 and Miss. Valentine Day you have met now twice. So after all the officer agents you have the Frontier agents. They command the basic unit. See the Officers are in charge of the Billions and Frontier Agents are in charge of the Millions. The Frontiers job is to raise funds for the company around the entrance to the grand line. That is the secret criminal organization."
Anne was nodding "Ok so out of the frontier agents. You were with Mr. 6?"
Vivi sighed "No… Mr.6 is with Miss. Mother's day. They are a highly skilled combat team. Mr. 7 and Miss. Fathers Day are snipers. I was with Mr. 9."
Anne nodded well it doesn't seem like they have as many people as I thought they would."
Luffy was laughing while everyone was gaping at her. "So lets get there so we can kick their ass." She said and smirk.
Nami was sitting there "If Crocodile is trying to take over Alabasta that must mean all of the officer agents should be all together."
Vivi nodded.
Everyone went off to get some work done. After awhile they heard Usopp "SHIPS and it is the Baroque works."
Vivi walked to the edge of the ship. "It is them."
"Well L-lets shoot 'em with the cannon now!"
Luffy was waving his hand. "No wait, I need to eat first! And it would be faster to just go over and kick their Asses!"
Usopp looked to Luffy "Are you crazy?"
Zoro shook his head at the two "Stop getting worried they're nothing!"
Sanji blew out smoke while sitting on the railing "Yeal all is lost if we lose sight of out true objective. There's only 9 of us." Sanji said while look at the ships."
Anne walked forward. "Captain Luffy. If you want, let me go forth and destroy all the ships."
Nami was annoyed "how can you possibly do that?"
"If Luffy lets me I will get rid of them."
Luffy was thinking "no we need to figure a way out Bon Clay can not pretend to be us."
Zoro smiled "I think I have an idea."
Anne smiled as Zoro explained his idea and it is a good one. She started to tie the bandage around her left arm.
"So tie them on tight. Our enemies have plenty of mysteries."
Vivi was helping Nami. "I see."
Nami looked to Zoro surprised, "As long as we can see these we don't need to doubt one and another."
Sanji who been at the kitchen trying to find some food was tying his bandage with his teeth "Does he really look like us that much? When he does his mane mane fruit things?"
Usopp looked to Sanji, "he doesn't look like us he "is" us. To bad you really should have seen it!"
Sanji glared at Usopp "I'm not interested in okamas."
"Come on we were even dancing."
Zoro shook his head "Now that we know he's among the enemy… We can't allow for any careless individual actions!"
Anne smirked knowing that he was talking about Luffy.
Chopper looked at everyone "Hey, what should I do?"
Anne was about to speak until Usopp did before her. "Just do what you can, nothing else. Run away from enemies you can't beat! Just do your best."
Sanji looked over "You're just telling that to yourself."
Chopper nodded "What I can do got it!"
Anne walked over looking at Chopper "Just remember Chopper after the battle is over. We need you to take care of everyone."
Chopper smiled and nodded "Got it Anne."
Luffy looked to the shore to see a city, "We're coming up to the Harbor. Let's stop on in that inlet to the west. We have to hide Merry." Luffy yelled. Then turned around sticking his arm out. "Okay! Whatever happens from now on, this left arm," he said with everyone else putting their arm in the middle making a circle. "Is proof of our friendship. Now let's get onto dry land! TO A RESTAURANT! Then Alabasta."
"Shut Up, you idiot!" Nami yelled.
.
..
…
..
.
Anne groaned having seen Luffy taken off running. The crew was slapping there heads. "Well all of you are to get the supplies for the ship. Sanji go get some clothes for everyone to blend in with. Once you do come back and give them to everyone. Then all of you need to get the supplies. Usopp make sure we get some supplies to fix the ship back up. Nami make sure you get a map of the island. You might see something that could work out for the better of all of us. Vivi go with Nami. Sanji go buy the food supplies. Zoro and Chopper go get any medical supplies you need. Also if any of you need to get something for your self do it while we are here. Also don't forget guys to get water. And we will be walking through this desert."
Everyone was starring at her since Luffy wasn't there it was her job as first mate to take charge. And they thought with Luffy and her being sibling… Well she would have run off. They didn't think she would be still there. "I have things I have to get done. Now rest of you should meet back up here. Also keep an eye out for Luffy."
Anne took off with Sanji walking next to him. He was smiling only for them to see Chopper walking next to them soon. "Hey Chopper what you doing?" Anne asked worried for his fur coat.
"Nami said for me to stay with Sanji so he gets back in time."
Anne smiled while Sanji was off dancing talking about Nami. She shook her head and waved her hand having a white glow to her hand and placed it on Choppers head. "Wow I feel better all of a sudden."
"I don't know how long it will last. But with your fur I hope it feels better."
"Oh it does. Thank you, you Dam Human…" He was flustered..
Anne smiled "well later." She said walking down a street only to see someone she could never forget."
Ace was showing someone a poster of Anne and Luffy only to feel someone tackling him to the ground.
Looking up he saw black hair. He smiled as he felt the air cooling down knowing who it was. "Anne?!"
Anne sat up smiling at her twin. "Hey bro.."
"Did you find Luffy yet? And how are you?"
"Yeah meet him at some bounty hunter trap. And any way how are you and what are you doing here? And I am doing good."
"We should talk somewhere in private."
Anne raised her eyebrow. "Fine, anyway I am heading off to get a tattoo."
Ace looked at her arm… "Where is your other tattoo."
Anne smirked waving her hand and a shimmer appeared and there was the symbol of Whitebeard pirates.
"Didn't want to upset Luffy. I am getting his on my back."
Ace nodded as they walked to the tattoo parlor.
Josh had a normal day in his life. But it was a dead day for his business. He was waiting for the men from the rebel army to come get their things. He leaned back in his chair yawning. When he heard the bell chime from the door. He raised his hat looking up. He smiled seeing people who where not from the island. He couldn't believe how they barely where wearing any clothes. "Hello how can I help you?" He said looking to the man seeing he already had some he thought he was going to get some more.
The man nodded his head "thank you. But it is not for me but for my sister."
Anne smiled walking up. "I want this on my back." She handed him the symbol of the straw hat pirates.
Josh took it and looked it over "Ok how big."
"My entire back."
Josh could not believe it as his cigarette fell from his mouth. "Well umm are you sure."
"Yes. Now I will be paying for it, or should I go somewhere else."
"No no… I just surprised… Well come over here and lay down and I need to sketch it out on your back. "
Anne walked over and laid down. That was when he noticed the Whitebeard symbol. He could not believe this girl had that symbol on her. "So are you a Whitebeard pirate?" He was wondering why she was getting a different symbol if he was. And if she wasn't and they found out she took their symbol for power of some short they would make her pay.
"No my brother over there is. I sailed with them for a couple of year. Pops thinks of me as his daughter. I sail on the strawhat crew."
He nodded and started to sketch it on her back.
Ace sat down knowing this would take a bit. "So Anne how is the sailing going with Luffy."
"It is good a lot different than our time together or Pops."
"What do you mean by that?"
"Well one thing is he is helping this Princess Named Vivi out."
Josh stared at her in shock while he started working. It been known the Princess had gone missing and everyone was getting worried. With all the trouble and her gone it was causing problems in the kingdom. "So she found out Crocodile is causing all the problems in the kingdom. He stole the rain and blamed the king for the rain dust sand thing. I think it is dance powder… Not sure.." She started to feel the man working on her back and winced in pain for a moment. "So anyway Luffy and the rest of the crew are dead set to save Vivi's country. And Luffy plans to beat up Crocodile…"
"Well… Wow he is doing all this and just starting out… What do you plan to do? I mean I am pretty dam sure you could beat Crocodile with no problem. But if you run into him he might go after you. Pops always said he had a grudge against him."
Anne winced for a moment as the tattoo artist worked near her spine. "Trust me I know. But Luffy is in charge… And if I have to.. I will kill Crocodile but Luffy will be mad at me."
"I heard there is a rebellion going on."
"Yeah the rebels will be a problem but Vivi said she was going to talk to the leader. Lot of good that will do." She rolled her eyes at that.
Ace took his hat off, while running his fingers through his hair. "Be better just to show who did it all. Does she think pointing a finger at Crocodile will work. He is part of the dam world government. The dam Celestial Dragons get away with anything." Ace said lowering his head.
"The other problem is that one of Crocodile's men can change into all the crew members but Sanji and me. Vivi is worried because he can turn into the King as well. And when he changes his body he becomes that person his voice height everything."
Ace sighed "that will be a big problem."
"So what happen?"
"I will tell you with Luffy…"
Anne nodded and knew it was bad. "So why are you here Ace.. Pops would not let you or anyone out of his sight for long. And why would he be in the Paradise. It be all over the news papers…" Ace was looking away.
"Something happen on the ship. Blackbeard.."
"Wait Teach what about the fucker."
"Wait what."
"Always hated him. He gave me looks. And I caught him checking me out."
"Anne everyone checks you out."
"That is besides the point, he gave me a creepy vibe. Ok, it is one thing when Marco and Thatch check me out. But when it was Teach it was like he was underdressing me... I just don't like the guy. Only tolerated him because he was part of your division and Pops would have gotten mad if I had turned him into a popsicle."
Anne noticed as she talked Ace had some flames flickering on him. He took a deep breath… "He about killed Thatch and killed one of Marco's men. Thatch is in a coma. Only reason he didn't die was because Marco cried over him healing his wounds…. He said you told him he could do it… How did you know about that power any way…"
"I…" She thought back to how the information just came to her, like a long lost dream. "Later…. So you're after him. But why would he attack Thatch?"
"Thatch had found a devil fruit… Thatch didn't eat it right away and Teach wanted it. Stole it and then jumped ship. I have been looking for him. I got a lead that lead me here."
"Well I think…" that moment she fell fast asleep.
Josh looked up "is she ok… I mean she was taking the pain pretty well."
Ace smirked "Yeah it is fine. Sometimes me and her have. Hey if you do a little extra I will pay you triple."
"What is it?"
Anne yawned waking up not able to believe how good she was feeling. Sitting up she rubbed her eyes. Josh walked back into the room. "Hey your brother paid for everything. Said he had some work to do and he meet up with you at the restaurant. Any way I have your back covered up. Make sure you keep it covered up for the next two days. That way no sand can get on it. And this will help it heal." He said giving her an ointment.
Anne took it, "You know I have a devil fruit I should be ok."
"Doesn't matter what you have. I do not want you to mess up my work. I have seen it happen in the past. I want you to take care of your self and my art. Now you better get going. I saw a couple marines earlier."
She smiled "Thanks."
Josh sighed with relief "so is she gone?" He heard the voice in the back.
"Yeah she is. Though I need to tell you guys something, I learned from the girl I just gave a tattoo too. And make sure it gets back to Koza."
"Yeah sure but what could it be about?"
"It has to deal with Crocodile, and the Princess."
They looked at him raising an eyebrow. "Really is she ok?"
"Yes she is fine and the news I have he needs to heard."
Anne yawned while walking to the restaurant. She noticed a huge crowed starting to form. She could even hear whispering about someone dying. She was hoping no one tried to steal Ace's food. They would be asking to be killed if they where not strong enough. She noticed a marine taking off the other way. Shaking her head. 'Just great.' Walking in she saw her brother was fast asleep face in his food again.
"He appears to be a traveler. You can just tell by the way he is dressed."
"Everyone thinks he may have accidentally eaten a "desert strawberry."
"Desert strawberry?" One person asked.
A man nodded "a poisonous spider that looks like a red strawberry. If you unwittingly eat if you suddenly die a few days later." And a number of hours after that the body spreads an infectious poison."
Anne shook her head walking forward hearing more people talking. "So nobody has approached him. In the desert, what you don't know can kill you.." The man said nodding. With many following after.
She smirked walking up hearing people whispering about some strawberry and a spider. She shrugged her shoulder and sat down next to him. She started to steal his food as people where yelling for her to get away from him.
"Why he is my twin?"
That made everyone fall silent and worried for the girl. And started to take pity on her for her loss. Only to see her punch her brother in the back of the head waking him up. "Stop sleeping around you scared all these people."
Ace was yawning and looking around he soon used a girls dress to whip his face. Looking around he groaned "Damn… I fell asleep…"
"You fell asleep." The customers where all yelling. Ace went back to eating. Only to hear people making a big deal about it. "Jeez, what are you guys so worked up about?"
"They though you where dead Ace." Anne said drinking some water. He nodded only to fall back asleep.
"Really Ace…" She rolled her eyes as he quickly woke back up.
He looked to Anne, "so like your extra bit."
"You mean tattooing my name on my arm.."
"Yeah.."
"I should beat the snot out of you."
"Love you too. Any way… I need to let you know if you run into Blackbeard I need you stay out of it."
"What why? I could take him you know."
"It's my job to do it Anne."
"So what your not my captain.. And if I see him I will go after him…"
"Promise me Harry no matter what happens you won't go after Sirius Black…" Anne was looking at a red headed man before her.
"Anne… Anne." Ace said shaking his sister.
"Yeah what is it…"
"I was asking you to promise me…" He looked at her. "I can't have anything happen to you. I know your strong but is this new crew up to par?"
Anne growled thinking of Nami, Chopper and Usopp… Even Sanji and Zoro wouldn't stand a chance against him.. She knew it.. Luffy she didn't even know.. She knew Shanks eye been damaged by Blackbeard in the past.
"Fine only for the crew…"
Ace smiled as they started to eat only for them to hear someone yell their names. "Why if it isn't the Portgas twins! Now what does the commander of the White-Beard Pirate Crew Second Division want in this country? And Anne the Ice Witch.. What are you doing here? Well Portgas D. Ace? And Portgas D. Anne."
The entire place started to freak out. People yelling and screaming thing.
"I knew I'd seen that mark on his back before!"
"His back did you see her arm?"
"What are they doing here?"
"W….. WhiteBeard?! ONE OF THE WHITEBEARD PIRATES!?" screamed a man who was running for the door.
The owner stood there in shock.
Anne smirked finishing her plate of food. And took a drink of her water.
Ace turned around "I'm on a search for my little brother. And came to see my sister."
Anne smiled and looked to Smoker. "What else but helping out a friend."
Ace looked to Anne, " What should I do…?!"
"Finish your food.." She said while listening to Smoker.
"Sit tight and let me arrest you."
"Rejected. Sorry, no can do." He said waving his hand shooing Smoker away.
Anne laughed.
"I'm looking for a different pirate. And I'm not really interested in the two of you."
"Then let-" Ace started.
"Us go." Anne finished.
"I can't do that. As long as I'm a marine.. And you're a Pirate…!"
Anne all of a sudden had a horrible sinking feeling.
"What a dumb reason… Chill out, man…"
"ROCKET!" She heard someone yell while Smoker flew into her and Ace.
She felt herself flying through about ten building. She groaned getting up. Looking around she saw Ace bowing to someone telling him he was sorry. She groaned walking back to where they been to beat the dam person up… Only for her and Ace to see it was Luffy. "Hey LU…" She been worried when he took off. Only to feel Smoker slam her and Ace into the ground.
Anne groaned "really hating that guy."
Ace got up "Agree…" looking he noticed Smoker was taking off after Luffy. "Crap." Both the twins yelled.
Anne took off running knowing that Luffy was in danger from the marine. She saw Ace and nodded both took off running after Luffy to keep him safe. Anne had heard how much Smoker had chased after her brother. And if he followed him to the grand line. Then she needed to get there because with out Luffy knowing Haki he was a sitting duck. She looked to see Luffy running on the street and Smokers hand reaching for him. She glared at the man waved her hand sending a red light at Smoker. Who got hit in the back and knocked on his feet and skidded across the ground. Anne froze the ground making it so Smoker slammed into a building. She ran and jumped to land in front of Luffy. She smiled at her brother as he saw her back seeing the Straw Hat symbol. And then saw that she had Whitebeards symbol on her arm looking upset. "Luffy you are my Captain. Whitebeard is my father, he is family." She said smiling at her brother and turned hearing Smoker.
"What is two pirates from the Whitebeard crew doing helping Straw Hat?"
"One not a Whitebeard pirate. Never been, and he is my Captain-"
"And three why wouldn't we help our bumbling kid brother." Ace finished with flames flickering off his body.
Anne smiled and made the entire streets temperature start to drop to below zero as she had Ice all up her arms. "LUFFY, about now you guys should run."
Luffy nodded "Oh right." He grabbed a barrel and took off running.
Smoker looked to Anne and could see why she was dangerous. He felt a chill over his body. Looking around he noticed the windows starting to freeze over.
Ace was standing there with his flames on his body. "You know I am Fire, and your Smoke. Anne is ice and much, much more. You sure you can beat us." He said smiling. Smoker sent a punch and his men ran at them. Ace blocked the punch with a fist of flames. While Anne waved her hand sending out a wave of Ice having spikes all over the ground. And the men where frozen solid. Smoker looked to see where they where once the blast had cleared. And there was no sign of them except for the Ice everywhere, and the flames flickering on the ground.
"Dam it. Men help these men thaw out and hurry and don't drop them other wise they are dead."
He noticed the locals in joy as they where cutting the ice spikes as the temperature was getting back to normal again and was starting to melt. That way they could get some fresh water. He shook his head never thinking a pirate could be such help to people in need.
Luffy was smiling only to notice that he lost his crew. "Man Anne you have your work cut out for you." Ace said jumping down.
"You think Luffy is bad you haven't meet Zoro when that boy is by him self he is more lost than Luffy will ever be."
"Man that is bad."
Luffy smiled running over and giving his brother a hug. And then they fist bumped and started to arm wrestled. Anne laughed and shook her head at the waste of water. "Come on lets get back to the ship."
Luffy nodded enjoying his time with two of his older siblings. "So Ace what are you doing here."
"Just following a rumors. And to see you and my twin. Any way-"
"Hold it right there Whitebeard Pirates." The trio was surrounded by men with guns pointed at them.
"We really are Lucky We have the Portgas twins, Fire Fist Ace and Ice Witch Anne. Then we have Straw Hat Luffy. All in the same day and place."
Anne was annoyed how these thugs where looking at her. She was getting annoyed wanting to enjoy her time with her brothers "WOULD YOU JUST GET LOST, STUPID WEAKLINGS!" Anne shouted at them.
Ace snickered which angered them and they attacked them furiously.
Anne raised her hand and sent out an ice blast freezing all the men. Luffy sent one man flying. Another tried to slice Ace in half only for him to see flames instead of blood. Ace jumped in the air and landed a kick on his neck.
The siblings started to walk off to the harbor.
"By the way, where's Sabo?" Luffy asked. Ace looked at him. "Didn't Anne tell you."
"Nope."
"We haven't seen him in a long time." Ace said. "He is out there somewhere sailing."
Anne walked off having a feeling something had happen to her other brother.
Anne had made it back to the crew who seemed to be waiting.
"Where are those two?" Nami asked annoyed.
Anne had just jumped on the ship.
"Hey guys how are you all doing?" She said smiling and went to walk into the kitchen.
"Where is your brother?" Nami asked annoyed.
Anne pointed to the docks and they saw Luffy reaching towards the ship.
Nami turned to Luffy "Was that really your brother?"
"Yep."
"So why is he here?" Zoro asked.
"Him, and Anne and Sabo left 3 years before us."
Sanji looked at him "Surprised seeing him here." He thought though with Anne finding them maybe not so much.
"Me too. Though he never had a devil fruit beforehand. And I could never beat him in a fight."
"You couldn't beat any of us in a fight Luffy." Anne yelled at him.
"Well I could beat him now."
At that moment Ace jumped on the ship kicking Luffy in the back of the head and landing on him. Luffy glared at his brother. "Get off." Ace smirked getting off his brother.
"So what are you doing here Ace?" Luffy asked.
Anne was standing at the door.
"You didn't get my message Luffy. Didn't you go to Drum…? Oh well. Anyway I came to give you a message join Whitebeard's crew. With your friends of course. Pops said he be happy to have Anne and all of you part of his crew. I know everyone misses you. Marco misses you a lot, he said he was sorry." He was going to hand her the letter.
Anne glared at Ace "don't talk about him to me." She walked off.
Luffy looked at him. "I'm fine with that. Only if he puts me in charge. Otherwise, No. " Luffy replied.
Ace laughed. "Come on, Luffy, at least think about it!" he asked again.
"No, Ace." Luffy answered with a tone of finality. "My dream is to be the pirate king. Always has been. Since I was seven. "
Ace sighed. "But I would like to talk to him. To thank him for taking you and Anne in. Well while she was there." Luffy continued.
Ace looked at him oddly.
"You've found your place, Ace. I need to thank him for that." Luffy told him.
"If you promise you won't be a jerk, I'll give you the Den Den Mushi number." Ace said after a moment of silence.
"So, basically, you don't want me to call him today?" Luffy asked.
"Exactly." Ace answered.
Usopp looked at him "are you really part of Whitebeard's crew."
"Yeah I am. Anne even sailed with us. Which is where she met Marco. He is the 1st division commander."
Everyone went into the kitchen to talk and sit down. They noticed Anne was asleep. When Luffy sat down, he made sure he was next to Anne and gave her a hug. Which woke her up not knowing Luffy been slightly worried she want to leave. But when he saw the tattoo on her back he was no longer worried. She smiled at him.
Nami looked to Anne "So Anne who is Marco."
"He is her past Love they where together almost the entire time we both sailed on Whitebeards ship. They broke it off since she was leaving. And Marco really misses you and is sorry Anne."
She looked at the food in front of her and sighed. She was picking at her food Sanji gave her.
Later that evening Anne was outside with Ace talking with him. "You should go back to Pops Ace."
Ace looked at her "I can' he killed some of my friends, and he hurt Thatch."
Anne looked at him, "Ace! Pops doesn't want you chase after him why go?"
She looked at the sky, "I know you want to go after him. I do too. I trusted the guy and can't believe he did that." Her hands were ice. "I want to kill him for hurting my friend."
Ace looked at her surprised how much she was effected by it. But Thatch was her best friend. Marco was the man she loved. Only for him to break it off with her but Thatch was the person she hung out with when she was not with Ace or Marco.
She looked at Ace, "Go back to Pops Ace. Please I want you safe. Something bugs Pops then listen to him. If you're hunting down Blackbeard how are you going to make Pops the Pirate King." She asked smiling at him. Knowing how mess with her brother.
Ace looked at her, "I have one last lead. So if I don't find him now I will go back. But only after hanging out with my younger siblings for a bit."
Anne smiled at her brother. "Thanks Ace." That was when they noticed all the bounty hunters ships.
