Once we were on the island, we instantly got to work. The older children started to cut down trees and build little campsites. Katakuri, with the help of Daifuku and genie, got the ship on land and made it a house. The younger ones would catch wild animals (mostly Katakuri, Ace Sabo, and Luffy). Everyone did their part. Katakuri, Oven Daifuku, Perospero would help with the building. Amande and Brulee would cut down trees for wood. Cracker would go around the woods looking for wild animals easier to tame, such as Sheep and Bulls. He also got help from Robin. To bring them back to our campsite. Law would help out wherever he was needed and would help out whenever someone was hurt. Sanji would cook and clean areas that needed cleaning. And, of course, Ace Sabo and Luffy went out exploring, but they called it hunting. I knew it was hard for them since they moved in, so I let them be. Everything was fine. The boys even got some great ideas as they explored and their older sibling complied, making them happy. So now, the entire island was their little playground.

The older children made the younger ones and me our house is hidden away in the trees. It was small, but it was enough for us. They even made them A treehouse where they would spend most of their time before coming home to eat and sleep.

Everyone older than 17 had their own house that they helped each other build. We are where happy.

Time Skip

A couple of months living on the new island. We were all fitting in alright. Perospero started to train his powers and could make a candy slug on the side of one of the smaller islands; he has also been training his control along with Katakuri, who has awakened his observation haki, which allows him to look slightly into the future. Cracker got his biscuit devil fruit. I will always be proud of him when he shows up in my room and tells me to look at the new tricks he learned with the help of his brothers and sisters. Oven learned to control his body heat when he placed his hands in seawater and could boil it without feeling weak. He also learned to cook using his powers. I told him it was unsanitary when I found him cooking an egg on his arm with Daifuku and Luffy waiting to eat.

I Punched all of them in the head as I told Luffy never to do that when he told me he wanted to do the same thing when he got older. I also had to teach him that not all devil fruits are the same... something his caretakers didn't teach him when he was staying with them. Even if Oven had powers, he would still have the same ones since he ate a devil fruit.

Amande started to get into writing and finished all that I had to teach her in sword fighting. she began to create her own moves from books we got on other islands. she also started to learn how to cook. But I am most proud of her desire to build her original sword. And she did. After years of practicing, she made the perfect sword.

Daifuku advanced in his haki like all the other children (not the young ones). He mainly focused on perfecting how to use genie. He also learned how to make him detach from him and go off to do investigative work for him.

Brulee almost perfected her Mirror powers. But Brulee was not allowed to talk about when she overestimated her ability and was stuck between the mirror and the natural world. The mirror she decided to come through was too small, and she couldn't back herself back out either. It took us hours to get her out, but once she was, she said to never talk about it. Whoever did would get punched over the head by her or yelled at or both.

Robin learned that she could make gigantic legs and arms. she also learned how to fly using arm wings. She also knew how to scare us at times, making us think that someone had broken into our house, but she used her powers to come inside. (Brulee does that as well with her powers).

Law... he learned to be a doctor. He would go to other islands to buy medical books and get hands-on medical experience from doctors willing to teach him. I let him over the years since I knew he was responsible, but I never let him go alone since I get worried when he sometimes forgets to call. The first time he went. He went alone, and trust me, I was worried sick since he only called when he got there and when he was coming back. I punched his head hard when he got home and told him that the next time he went out, he was to take Katakuri. He agreed. But I was happy that he found a way for me to look like I once did, which is why he never called.

Sanji would always ask Katkuri and Law for cookbooks and information about animals that can be eaten and those that can not. he would also ask them for fighting tips for hand-to-hand combat but later moved to his own creation of battle with his legs. But as he grew older, I had to teach him how to be a man. That included not putting his hands on a girl or woman. I explained my story again to him, and he understood, but I could tell that the story didn't get to him as I hoped it would, so I told him of the day I found Brulee getting beat up by a group of boys. He asked why and I said to him that his brother Katakuri pissed them off, and to get to him, they went after Brulee. I also explained why he never saw his brothers hit their sisters like they would hit each other.

"Sanji... no matter if a woman beats and batters you or even breaks your heart. Never place your hands on a woman... if anything, tell mama and let woman handle woman because the moment you place your hand on a woman in both inappropriate or not, you lose the right to be called a man," I overheard Perospero and the triplets explain to him.

"Remember, never treat a woman how you don't want mama and our sisters to be treated," Katakuri explained.

"if mama hears you punched or hit a woman... you don't want to know what will happen to you, kid," Daifuku said, "I remember there was a time when we were back on the grand line when a man catcalled Amande and touched her inappropriately... mama went full out on him... she didn't kill him. Still, he won't be walking or feeling his hands soon."

"Mama has also dealt with a woman who dared yell or hit us." Oven started, "she punched the woman so hard when she bumped Katakuri and accused him of touching her. She was on the other side of the street. So don't underestimate women either."

"And remember, no matter what, women are not weak. Women are stronger than we could ever be because of what they throw. Some men can be animals making it much harder for a woman to live peacefully... Just look at what happened to mama. She didn't even get to grow up before her father beat her and forced her to train."

"I promise I will never, and I mean never, punch, touch, or even cause any harm to a woman as long as I shall live," Sanji said as he burst into tears, finally understanding the depth of what his mother figure tried to teach him.

Sabo started to open up a lot more and much faster than his other brothers. he would talk to everyone about anything. he would ask a lot of questions and even ask some of the older kids if they could let him borrow some of their books. He started to learn sword styles after hitting 11 along with Ace, but Sabo used a pole he brought from his old home.

Ace was a... troublemaker... ya, that's as nice as I can say since he is one of my sons. He has been pranking everyone. He learned hard not to prank Law, Robin, or even me. He was hard to deal with at first since he had many trust issues. Still, we slowly worked on his manners along with Luffy's. We also worked on his people skills since he, unlike Sabo and Luffy, has never interacted with regular civilians since he only met the homeless in the dump and the mountain bandits.

There was a day when Ace pissed me off beyond belief. It was the day he turned 12. on his birthday, and 10 months before Law left out to sea.

He thought it was a bright idea to go out into the woods alone and not tell anyone other than Luffy, who was half asleep at the time and walked out. We looked for him all morning, and when he finally returned, he revealed that he had eaten a useless devil fruit. He threw the thing at our feet before walking inside to eat. I growled as I walked right after him to punch him, only for my arm to go right through him as he turned into fire.

He was scared because he thought it was a useless fruit. I had Perospero look through his book with Sabo, who wanted to learn about it. They told me he ate the Flame fruit. When they said that, I punched him on the head using a Haki-covered hand. And boy, oh boy, trust me when I say he no longer goes out into the woods alone and doesn't eat something he doesn't know what it is

Luffy found it easy to get along with everyone. He told me he had rubber powers, and I instantly told Katkuri to train him since their abilities were the closest. He would climb on Brulee and Sabo and ask them for bedtime stories. His older brothers, Oven and Daifuku, would tell him stories of the travels we had been in. Amande would show him all her invented Sword moves. Cracker would play with him and show him how to get out of trouble. Law just babysits him. Luffy tells me he is the best babysitter ever, but I know it's because Law doesn't care what he does. Robin and Sanji agreed to be in his crew when he grew up a little more and got along with him the most.

And finally I... it's been years since I left my home in Japan. And ever since then, I have been training with the kids. of course, I am not using my flames as much, but once Ace got his powers, I taught him to the best of my abilities. We agreed that we would learn together since I lost some control over the years.

I'm glad I met them. All of them... and I wonder what kind of adventure will follow after all these years.
