Ta-da~! Here's the latest update. Yay, I updated! *Takes a bow* Yes, I barely procrastinated this time, thank you.

I only have about two days of school left, so I'm happy about that. It means quicker updates and more time to write this story and other ideas that I might have.

Disclaimer: I don't own One Piece! I do own a one piece swimsuit tho. Just saying.

Reead. Blurgh.

Somewhere...

"Dracule Mihawk was spotted hanging around a bunch of pirates again."

"Why must this concern any of us? He is a warlord and free to do whatever he pleases, so long as he does not betray us." A tall man with short black hair and icy black eyes stated, arching an eyebrow. He was drinking from a tall glass of ice cold water...the water being turned to ice by him. "Besides..he's always hanging around pirates. He picks them off, however many he can."

"True, True." The male beside him nodded. "You are correct. However...he did not pick off these pirates like he usually would.." The man crossed a his longs legs, the dark yellow of his suit contrasting with his white admiral coat. "But you should watch these videos that our den den mushi specialists have tracked...a bunch of new pirates have entered this era and are trying to make a name for themselves."

"Videos?" The man with the cold glass of water in his hands raised an eyebrow. "What is the name of the pirate in these videos?"

"Luffy."

"Luffy?" The icy male scratched his head. "That name sort of sounds familiar..."

"Who cares?" A third male stated, crossing his legs and arms. His fists burned a dark red, as if they were made of molten lava, and his eyes also seemingly burned with anger. "Just let them be. As long as the pirate doesn't enter the Grand Line and cause mayhem he is of no importance to us.

The man with the cold glass of water in his hands grunted in agreement.

Yellow suit shrugged. "I suppose."

Alabasta...

"Mihawk leaving a bunch of pirates like them to live? Tch. He must be growing soft." A certain warlord blew on his cigar, his legs crossed and his hand...er hook...resting on the armrest of his throne. "They all seem like idiots.."

"Red hair!"

"Luffy!"

"Green hair!"

"..."

"And black hair! We're a strange crew, huh?"

"Oi, you're the strange one here."

"I dunno, Mr 0..." The raven haired beauty beside him chuckled. "They seem like an interesting bunch, especially if even the great Dracule Mihawk let them live..."

"You're gonna die from alcohol poisoning one day...stupid."

"Oi! Who're you calling stupid?!"

"The stupidest one at this table of course!"

"Really, what was that idiotic warlord thinking..." Mr 0 blew on his cigar even more. "Why didn't out transponder snails pick up anything of importance? All of these videos show nothing but how idiotic some pirates are and how weak they are. Watch them die before they even make it here, to the Grand Line, Miss Wednesday."

Miss Wednesday chuckled. "That may be the case." She tipped her hat down. "But they seem like an amusing bunch. I'd hate to see them die so easily..."

"Turn it off." Mr 0 rolled his eyes. "I don't want to see anymore of this absurdity."

"As you wish~." The mysterious raven haired woman swiftly shut off the den den mushi.

Water Seven...

"HA HA HA! ARE YOU GUYS WATCHING THIS?! KHALIFA, COME LOOK AT THIS!"

"That's sexual harassment, Paulie."

"But this is FUNNY!"

"Shouldn't a pirate flag have a more death like appearance?"

"Heh, it certainly scares me!"

"What kind of art work is that, Luffy?!"

"Paulie, we should be getting back to work." The bird on a certain assassin's shoulder chirped. "Iceburg-San won't be happy to hear that we are lacking on the job."

"I know, I know.." The blonde haired male known as Paulie replied. "But I couldn't help it. The den den mushis tracked recordings of Mihawk with a bunch of rowdy pirates...and their videos are just hilarious!"

"Alright, so do we all agree that we should get a cook before entering the Grand Line?"

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

"And a musician!"

"Idiot!"

"Ugh, Paulie. Just get back to work." Khalifa stated, pushing up her glasses.

"K-K-Khalifa! How shameful of you to expose your long legs like that! Shameful! Cover them up!"

North Blue...or somewhere hell I don't know...

"Look, Captain! Mihawk made an appearance in some recording!"

"Shachi, how is this of importance to us? Who cares about what Mihawk does?"

"Well ya see..." Shachi scratched his head as he set the De den mushi down in front of his captain. "Mihawk usually picks off pirates, mostly in the East Blue right? Well...this time he let a group of pirates live!"

The captain of the ship raised a navy blue eyebrow. "Really? Play the recording then."

"My name is Dracule Mihawk..."

"Zoro!"

"And I believe that it is too early..."

"Zoro, get up!"

"For you to die..."

"He's losing too much blood!"

"Roronoa, Zoro!"

"Roronoa, Zoro?" The pirate captain rested his cheek into the palm of his hand. "Hm, the East Blue...the weakest sea in the world...and Mihawk chooses to let him live?"

"I've set sail! Shishishi! I'm gonna be King of the Pirates, and there's nothing you can do about that Shanks!"

"Interesting." The pirate smirked. "Rookie mistake though. I'm the one who will become King of the Pirates. Not this Luffy kid."

Shachi nodded in agreement. "Yes! And we're all gonna help you become King!"

"Here's long nose!"

"Oi. Why am I only known as long nose?!"

"Here's Scary Face! I'd never want to wake up to that face! It's hideous!"

"Oi...shut up..."

"And here are two bounty hunters, traveling with a bunch of pirates for the time being!"

"Yo."

"Nonetheless, he has interesting crewmates..."

"That woman sure is pretty.." A man with the word "Penguin" written across his hat stated. His eyes turned to hearts, and he clasped his hands together. "She's a real cutie! I wish she was here with us..."

"Me too.." Shachi added, his eyes also turning to hearts as he glanced at Nami. "She has the smile of an angel..."

Their captain only chuckled. "Tell Bepo to set sail for the next island. I'm bored with this one."

"Right away, Captain!"

Dressrosa...

"OOOOH! I think I'm in love~!Thank you to the oceans, in which I am so very grateful for bringing me to he in the presence of such a beautiful woman on this fine day! Oh how blessed I feel! As long as I can be with you, beautiful lady, I don't care what kind of path I have to cross even if it's that if a pirate~! But oh!Alas, there is a burden, an obstacle that stands in the way of our love!"

"Mihawk really let such an idiot live? Tsk. I laugh."

"So do I, Baby Five. Such a thing is very ludicrous."

Baby Five chuckled, staring at the recordings the den den mushi was relaying to her and her family. "These kids are really funny!"

"Sorry about the cuts by the way. You were trying to destroy the ship so I had to kick your ass real quick."

"That little brat, Luffy.." Diamante smirked, crossing his arms. "I bet he'd give Law a run for his money."

"Diamante! You are too Generous! Oooh! There's the G!" An old man shouted rather boisterously. "Those kids probably won't make it past the Grand Line! Ahh! There's the G!"

"Whatever the case..." A new voice suddenly spoke, silencing everyone around him.

"Yeah I'll be apart of your pirate crew. but why are you recording this?"

"So that Shanks and everyone can see for themselves all the adventures I have been on and all the new friends that I make! Your friends will see it too!"

"Is that so...?"

"This...Luffy...seems to be connected to Red Haired Shanks." The male smirked widely, his eyes hidden beneath his purple glasses. "Or do you guys know of any other Shanks in this world? If he does somehow make it into the Grand Line..."

"Hold it right there! There's no way that you'll ever become Pirate King! That title goes to me, and me only!"

"We'd have to keep an eye on him..."

On the sea...

"Luffy, eh? What a strange name."

"Oiiii! Shanks! Yasopp! Ace! Minna! Look at meee!"

"Ace? Does this kid know Ace?"

"Marco. Are you still watching that shit? Turn it off." This statement was followed by the large male taking a sip of alcohol from a large bowl. He sniffed, his strangely shaped white beard moving just a little. "We don't have time for that crap."

"Ah, but captain. Dracule Mihawk of the Seven Warlords let some pirates in the East Blue, the weakest sea in the world, live." Marco scratched his head. "Not to mention the fact that one of the pirates he let live just stated Ace's name."

"And? There are plenty of other idiots named Ace in the world. The ocean is a vast place."

"Thats enough questions out of you. Why are you taping this anyway?"

"So that Shanks and minna can see all the adventures I have and all the new nakama that I make!"

"Shanks?"

Whitebeard raised an eyebrow. "Shanks?"

"Ah." Marco smirked. "These kids are interesting. I think I see why Mihawk let them live. Especially that Luffy guy. He seems to know Shanks..."

"Hmph." Whitebeard took another swig from his large alcohol bowl. "I'll just remember him for later. Marco, set a course for the next island. And turn that den den mushi off!"

Maiden Island..

"Sis! Come look at what our den den mushis have picked up!"

"USOPP! IT'S IN MY EYE! GET IT OUT, IT BURNS!"

"How am I supposed to get it out?!"

"Usopppp!"

"KYAA! Now it's in my eyes!"

"Marigold, who cares about a bunch of idiotic pirates like that?" Her sister replied, flipping long locks of jet black hair over her shoulder. "Besides, they are men. Men are worthless, savage, disgusting creatures!"

Marigold nodded in agreement. "I agree with ya Hancock. But look! Dracule Mihawk was spotted in one of the recordings! That's the reason why our den den mushis picked up their signal!"

"Mihawk?" Boa Hancock raised an eyebrow. "Really?"

"Its true sis!" Sandersonia added. "Look if you don't believe us!"

"There's no need for me to look." Hancock replied, lifting her nose into the air. "I don't want to watch men act like the idiots they are."

"M-Minna! Go s-see who it is!"

"Why do we have to go and not you, Nami?!"

"Because I said so!"

"There's a woman with them too?" Hancock glared at Nami's shivering form. "She must be out of her mind. She should realize that all they want to do is use her!"

"Its really sad huh? I feel bad for her." Marigold stated. "Having to travel with such savage beasts."

"Come quick! Brother Usopp! Brother Luffy! Brother Zoro! Brother Nami!"

"Nani?"

"Eh?"

"Cool!"

"Why am I brother..? I'm not a brother...I'm a woman.."

"Ladies, I feel bad for her too. But aren't you guys questioning Mihawk's motives here?" Sandersonia asked. "He let those kids live. And that is the weakest sea in the world...the East Blue. Why would he let weaklings like them live? I mean-"

"Oh please, Sandersonia." Hancock cut in. "Mihawk probably thought they weren't worth the kill. That Luffy kid says he'll become King of the Pirates? Tsk. I laugh. I bet we'll never hear from even him again."

Fishman Island...

"Heh. Monkey...D...Luffy eh?" An old man with long silverish hair chuckled, pushing his glasses up. "Reminds me of a certain someone.."

He closed his eyes then, a smile on his face. "Mihawk...good on ya. You let that boy and his crew live. That was a good decision. Or maybe it was a bad one...it could be a mixture of both.."

"Boy. What do you aim for?"

"Pirate King!"

"Tsk. A tough aim. Harder than surpassing me."

"And? I'm still gonna do it no matter what you or anyone else says!"

"Hes got a long way to go if he thinks he can take Roger's title of Pirate King." The old man smirked. "But that kid..you can see it in his eyes..."

"He has the Will of D."

I am so sorry about the delay in an update. School rrrgh!

Did you guys enjoy this chapter? It was commentary, like you've been asking about right? The only reason why the footage of the Straw Hats was seen by the higher ups in the Grand Line was solely because of Mihawk. I didn't write about all the warlords or Smoker or anyone because nobody is interested in Luffy for now. Except for the man in the last excerpt. Hmm I wonder who he is...

While I was writing this chapter I was reading about Law's past and just..wow..Oda you brought tears to my eyes with that one. Poor Law. He deserves love. (From Nami hehe.)

Oh come on. I can't be the only person who ships LawNa. Yes? No? Mkay.

Read and Review!
