Saiyans on the Grandline
~Kaen: Dooms Day~
The sky was bright, and shinning. The only problem with that, was the cause of the light shining on them.
"Frieza." Kaen growled, clenching his fist hard.
"Kaen."
The Saiyan King didn't need to raise his head to know Whis was standing right behind him.
"Tell me Whis, is this the extent of the Causality Loop? Is my time in the past over?" Kaen questioned.
"No, there is still one last thing, you need to accomplish before your time in the past comes to a close." Whis said.
"How long do I have?" Kaen questioned, barely looking over his shoulder.
"Twenty-five minutes. After that, the Supreme Kai of Time, will return you to your proper place in the timeline."
"What do I need to do before that happens?"
"Instill hope, in your citizens, and turn their fear, into courage." Whis said.
Kaen looked up from the balcony, and grabbed his cape, pulling it off along with his circlet and ring, stuffing them into his Duplication Bag, before flying up through the air, with One-for-All coursing through his body. Before He could get very far, Kaen was ambushed by several members of the Frieza Force.
"Stop right there you damn monkey." One of them said.
"Out of my WAY." Kaen shouted throwing a punch at them, using the wind pressure to hit them and knock the Frieza Force off balance.
Grabbing his throbbing arm, Kaen hissed in pain and anger, popping a Senzu Bean into his mouth, healing his broken arm almost instantly, before he flew through more of the Frieza Force, sending them scattering across the airspace.
"FRIEZA." Kaen shouted, breaching the barricade of Frieza Force members.
There atop the mother ship of the Frieza Force, was a Frost Demon with black horns, slim standard Frieza Force Armor, and sitting in an over compensating hover chair.
"Oh look, a monkey wearing a clown costume. How amusing." Frieza smirked. "An' just who might you be?"
"You weren't here for it, but I fought King Vegeta in a Trial of Combat, and won the throne." Kaen glared. "I am here, to end your reign of terror on the Saiyans, and the universe."
"Hmm, you know another monkey said the same thing. His name was… Bardock I believe. My men had failed to kill him upon ordered, but I decided to cut the poison off at the source." Frieza said. "Now, be a good monkey and show me a dancing trick, I'll even provide you with some backup dancers."
Almost instantly, Kaen ducked forward to evade a hit from a turquoise skinned man, with green hair, and a chained circlet on his forehead.
"Monkey, meet Zarbon, one of my elite commanders." Frieza said. "You have to be fast to evade a sneak attack from him, especially when you don't appear to be wearing a Scouter."
"Why would I need a Scouter, when I know when someone's behind me for a sneak attack?" Kaen questioned, slamming his elbow back, and hitting a large pink spiked alien in the gut with 10% of One-for-All. "I'm gonna assume that was Dodoria."
"Very clever. You're not like most other monkeys, but lets see you handle both of them at once."
Kaen just glared at Frieza, before he had to move his head to the side, and evaded a punch from Zarbon. However, this hit provided an opening for Dodoria as he slammed a fist into Kaen's stomach, before Zarbon took that opportunity to hit him in the face with a strike from the knee. This beating continued on, and on, until Zarbon grabbed Kaen by the throat, and repeatedly slammed his fist into his stomach and face, stopping when Kaen coughed up blood.
"My, look at that. Even if they have a different King, they're still a bunch of useless monkeys." Frieza laughed.
"Kaen, you only have ten minutes remaining." Whis's voice echoed in his head.
"No. I'm not done yet." Kaen growled, grabbing Zarbon by the wrist.
"Oh look Lord Frieza, the ugly primate thinks he can still fight." Zarbon laughed.
"Oh come now Zarbon that's not very nice." Frieza laughed as well.
"I'm not done." Kaen growled, One-for-All coursing through his body, as his grip on Zarbon's wrist grew tighter, before there was a loud snapping sound.
"AAHHH." Zarbon cried out, letting go of Kaen as he grabbed his wrist, flying back from Kaen. "You beast. You must have been hiding your true power." He growled, pressing the button on his Scouter.
The Scouter tried to analyze his power level, but the device exploded on his ear, causing him a bit of irritation, before he looked at Kaen, a mix of fear and anger in his eyes.
"What is it Zarbon?" Frieza questioned.
"The Scouter, My Lord." Zarbon began. "It can't handle his true power. It's so immeasurable it caused the Scouter to overload."
"You probably just had a faulty Scouter. He's nothing more then a lower class piece of garbage." Dodoria declared, charging at Kaen.
Almost instantly, Kaen vanished from Dodoria's sights, confusing the alien before he was struck from above by an axe kick, powered by One-for-All.
"One-for-All: California SMASH." He cried out, sending Dodoria planet side.
"You filthy primate." Frieza sneered.
"Kaen."
The Saiyan looked to who had called his name, and saw a tattered and beaten up Bardock, holding his side in pain as he was breathing heavily.
"You must stop Frieza, from destroying the Saiyans." Bardock declared.
"Die you insolent worms." Frieza called out, throwing his massive attack at the planet.
Looking back up, Kaen braced himself as he held his arms up and out, crying out in pain as he pushed back against Frieza's attack. But the powerful attack was proving too much for the Young King, as he was pushed back by the destructive attack.
"Kaen." Callio's voice reached his ears.
Kaen's eyes shot open, when he felt three pairs of hands push up against his back. Looking over his shoulder, he saw Callio with the slimmed down Elery, and Bardock pushing against his back, before Vegeta, and several other Saiyans came and pushed with them.
"You can do this." Callio said. "You said it yourself, anything that happens in the Temporal Causality Loop, has already happened and nothing you do can change the flow of time."
"Dad, the others."
"We know son." Elery said. "Your father told us everything last night."
"He told us who you were, where you came from, and what's going to happen." Bardock said.
"We've accepted our fate, we as the noble and proud Saiyans accept this as the beginning of atoning for all the heinous acts we committed, throughout our history. We'll have a long way to go to atone in Other World, but you showed us the way." Vegeta said.
"So go on boyo, show that Frost Demon, the burning flames of hell, and why you never mess with the pride of a Saiyan." Callio said.
"When you feel like you can't go on anymore, look inside yourself, and remember, who you were, where you started, and where you are now. This power I wield, One-for-All, has been passed down, from hero to hero. Each praying that one day it'll bring joy and peace to humanity, that One-for-All, will give the world hope. Now with a One-for-All of your own, it is your turn to be the shining light that this world, no that this universe needs. Do your best, my son." All Might's words rang in his head, as he'd given Kaen the same speech, that Nana Shimura gave him when she bestowed One-for-All to him.
"One-for-All… No, that's the name of a power belonging to someone else." Kaen said, tears flowing from his eyes. "Saiyan's Wrath, has given me the chance to meet my parents, to meet my family, to meet my heroes." He stated, his rage building up inside him.
Letting out a battle cry, Kaen felt an immense wave of power pulse from his core, before it crashed into Frieza's attack, and dispersed it into the air. With the attack having dissipated, Kaen charged at the stunned Frieza, and hit him with a never ending barrage of punches to the face, causing the Frost Demon to bleed. The Saiyans who witnessed this cried out in triumph as they fought harder to destroy the Frieza Force.
"This is where it ends Frieza." Kaen shouted.
"Time's up I'm afraid." The Supreme Kai of Time said, before grabbing Kaen by the arm and vanishing in rings of light, as she traversed through time.
~Marineford~
The atmosphere was tense as the marines, were stared down by Whitebeard, and his Fourteen Commanders. Celeron was holding Eri like a piece of luggage, while Overhaul stepped out of the shadows, looking like he was ready to be done with this shit.
"Give me a second, Ace, Mina." Whitebeard said, with a bit of a laugh.
"Pops." Ace cried out.
The moment Ace cried out to him, Whitebeard pierced the figure head of his ship, before he spread his arms apart, and swung them in, hugging himself. A tense moment of silence and fear echoed through the air, before Whitebeard swung his arms back, and as if impacting solid steel, his fists were enveloped in energy, and the whole island, as well as the sea, began to shake as if hit by a Category10 Earthquake.
"Where's that explosion coming from?" Koby questioned as a large mound of water rose high into the air.
"No good! The waters surface is just too high." Helmeppo stated.
"That bastard, he's distorting the sea." Sengoku exclaimed.
"The other side too." A Marine called out, as the water on the other side of Marineford began rising up as well.
"This is the power of Whitebeard." Koby said, freaking out a bit.
As the water continued to rise, the quaking began to die down, before stopping all together.
"Is it over?" A Marine questioned.
"What caused those quake?" Another asked.
"Pops, everyone." Ace said, looking at Whitebeards crew. "I ignored your advice and took off after the traitor who killed Thatch. Why didn't you just give up on me? I'm the one who caused all this!"
There was a moment of silence as they let Ace's words sink in.
"No Ace." Whitebeard stated. "I'm the one who told you to go, Son."
"That's a lie, cut it out." Ace shouted. "You told me not to go, but I…"
"I'm the one, who told you to go." Whitebeard stated, loudly this time. It was obvious, he wasn't gonna let this go, and that became especially clear, with what he said next. "I'm the one who told him to go, isn't that right Marco?"
"Yeah, that's what I heard." Marco affirmed. "I'm sorry that we put you through so much, Ace."
"Mina." Whitebeard said. "I am sorry Kaen was unable to get to you in time. He had joined my crew, because I had convinced him it was the best way, to save you and Eri. He fought my entire crew, and even pushed Marco past his limits, trying to flee our ship to come after you, before he joined. Seems he failed to get to you in time, at Impel Down."
"So that was him." Mina said, a smile on her face, and tears in her eyes.
"But now, with him as a member of my crew, he's not the only one, out of the two of you who is my child. As his wife, that makes you my child as well." Whitebeard stated. "An' that also makes Eri and the child you carry, my grandchildren, who I will cherish and care for."
"Everyone in this world knows, what will happen to anyone who messes with our crewmates." Marco stated.
"We won't let anyone, who hurts either of you, get away with it Ace, Mina!" Another of Whitebeards crew stated.
"Count on us, we will save you both."
"Kaen joined… Whitebeards crew, just to save me?" Mina asked. "That idiot. That lovable, adorable idiot." She smiled, tears streaming down her face as the rest of Whitebeards crew cheered on.
"Prepare yourselves, Navy HQ." Sengoku said.
Down bellow the scaffolding, the three Admirals sat in silence, waiting for the fight to begin, before one of them spoke up.
"We brought this upon ourselves." Aokiji sighed. "What a pain."
"It's too late to say such things." Akainu stated.
"That's so disgusting." Kizaru exclaimed.
"On this side, we, the Warlords, the Navy's greatest power, 3 Admirals, and a 100,000 Elite soldiers!" Moria said with a laugh. "On that side, are the Whitebeard Pirates, and more then 40 allied ships. Now, how do you wanna do this, Whitebeard?"
"This is so exciting." A man with short blonde hair, wearing sunglasses, and a pink feather shall stated, before looking to Mihawk, and Hancock. "Do you wanna be on the sideline as always? I know you just came to kill some time." No response came from either of the other two Warlords. "So be it."
'There are rowdy men everywhere, and I can't stand it.' Hancock thought. 'Not to mention, Sengoku seems to have no qualms about killing a pregnant girl. It's so revolting, how these men think they can simply do as they please just because they have the power and means to do it. However, they're both men as well, but they are an exception. I'm praying for you, Luffy, Kaen!'
"Hey." One of the marines at the cannons said, noticing the water.
"What's wrong?" His companion asked.
"The water level, it's receding!"
"What does it mean?"
"Idiots." Mina chuckled, gaining Sengoku' attention. "What the hell do you think happens, when an Earthquake hits a coastline?"
It took a minute to figure out what Mina was talking about, before Sengoku' eyes widened in realization.
"No… You don't mean, he caused that Earthquake to create…"
"A Tsunami." Mina nodded. "With how much water's receding, it's beyond anything anyone here, has probably ever seen before."
There was a period of silence, as the rowdy Whitebeard Pirates settled down, all of them waiting with confident smiles on their faces, while the Marines continued to wait with baited breath.
"They've quieted down all of a sudden." A man wearing heart shaped sunglasses said.
"Do you think they're waiting on Whitebeards command?"
"I can hardly breathe." Koby said.
The silence continued on, until the water began rushing back to the previous sea level.
"The water level's rising again." The marine said, before the ground began to shake.
"I can hear the ground trembling." Moria said.
"Chisaki?" Celeron questioned, turning to look at his partner.
"Does it look like my hands are touching the ground?" Overhaul questioned holding up his gloved hands. "This isn't my doing."
"I don't sense Papa's energy, so this isn't his doing either." Eri said.
"Now it's coming. The Seaquake he set up before, was the precursor to the actual event. It's returning, in the form of a Tsunami, just as the Pirate Girl said." Garp said, as the rumbling and shaking of Marineford intensified. The Tremor-Tremor Fruit, made him a Quake Man. Edward Newgate, A.K.A Whitebeard! This is why he's considered to be the most dangerous man alive."
"Look, what is that?" A marine questioned, as the water began rising over the buildings.
"It's a giant Tsunami." Another shouted.
"Gah, damn brat fucking bit me." Celeron cursed as he dropped Eri, allowing for her to grab onto the Scaffolding and climb up, before clinging to Mina' side.
"MAMA." Eri said. "I ate a Devil Fruit, so if that hits I won't be able to survive. I'll sink."
"It's okay baby." Mina said, as Eri crawled in front of her. "Hold tight to me, and you won't be washed away."
"Don't think that our superior forces will guarantee us victory." Sengoku said, seemingly unphased by the oncoming Tsunami. "We could very well all fail. Because that man… has the power to destroy the world!"
"Let's go!" Whitebeards forces called out, with the other cheering in agreement.
As the waves continued to encroach on the Marines, arching over the buildings, there were screams of terror, as the lower ranked soldiers, had no clue how they were gonna make it out of this one alive, all while Whitebeard was laughing.
Just as the Tsunami began to comedown, while overshadowing the entire island, Aokiji jumped from his seat, and into the air at blinding speeds, with his arms out wide, sending spears of ice that sprouted from his palms to the waves. The moment those spears touched the waves that was the Tsunami, they began to freeze without hesitation.
"Ice Age!" Aokiji shouted.
"Aokiji, you young squirt." Whitebeard said with a smile.
"Partisan!" Aokiji called out, creating tridents of ice, and sending them at Whitebeard.
Whitebeard pulled his arm to the side as he rotated his body, before swinging back and hitting the air with another Tremor.
"Not good." Aokiji said, before cracking like the ice he was and fell to pieces.
Falling towards the sea, Aokiji hit the water, as if it were solid ground, before he pieced himself back together, and froze the water of the entire waterfront, and somewhat beyond it.
"The whole bay is frozen." One of Whitebeards commanders said.
"The ships can't move now." Another added.
"We have the greatest force of the Navy HQ, the Admirals, on our side!" One of the marines stated.
"That's right." Another marine agreed. "There's no reason to be afraid of the Whitebeards!"
With the others agreeing, no one noticed Aokiji moving, until he attempted to make an attack.
"Arctic Blade!" Aokiji called out, sending a spear of ice at Whitebeard.
"Arctic Tremor Aftershock!" Kaen's voice echoed through the air, as a green and blue Ki blast came from the sky and intercepted the spear of ice, creating a wall that was destroyed alongside the spear, protecting Whitebeard. "Detroit…" The Saiyans voice rang out again, but much closer to Aokiji now. "SMASH!"
Aokiji instantly moved out of the way, narrowly dodging Kaen as he came flying down, with his fist impacting the ice, causing the frozen surface to crack and break, almost akin to Whitebeards power.
"Who the hell are you?" Aokiji questioned.
"Kaen." Mina gasped.
"PAPA." Eri shouted.
Through the shards of ice flying through the air, Kaen looked up at Aokiji, and without missing a beat, jumped off the ice, and hit the Admiral with a spinning double kick, resulting in the first strike dazing the Marine, and the second one, knocking him back to the wall of the bay.
"Kaen. Come here!" Whitebeard called out.
Kaen looked back over his shoulder, before looking towards the bay, his eyes widening in shock, when he spotted Overhaul, and Celeron, instantly recognizing his brothers Ki signature.
"KAEN!" Whitebeard repeated, before the Saiyan stepped back, and flew to the figurehead, standing at his captains side. "What happened? Why weren't you able to get Ace and Mina out?"
"Getting to them proved a bit more challenging then I thought. An' it didn't help Magellan hit me with enough poison to kill everyone here." Kaen said. "I'm alive, thanks to the Wukong Gem in my chest, but we've got bigger problems right now."
"Such as?" Whitebeard asked, before noticing Kaen's expression. "You okay son, you look like you've seen a ghost."
"I might have. See that big guy who looks like a spiked demon, and the plague masked guy next to him?" Kaen questioned.
"I see them."
"Big guy's my older brother. Been trying to off me for a while. The one next to him is Chisaki, the guy I told you who had tortured Eri before I rescued her." Kaen stated.
"I see." Whitebeard said. "Until I say otherwise, I want you here at my side, even as the war begins. Do you understand?"
"But Pops, Mina's…"
"Pregnant, I know. Eri told us earlier when she called out to us." Whitebeard stated.
"If either Celeron or Chisaki joins in on the fight, you're gonna want me out there." Kaen said. "I'm all battered and beaten, thanks to something I went through earlier, but I can still fight."
"An' you will. But I need both my best fighters here by my side." Whitebeard exclaimed.
"I'm one of your best?"
"Not just anyone, can push Marco to the brink, like you did. All while injured no less. You're strong, and as far as everyone else on my crew's concerned, Marco's equal in terms of combat strength and skill." Whitebeard stated.
"Fire." One of the marines shouted, before the sound of cannons going off was heard echoing through the air. The ship shook with the impact from the cannons hitting the Moby Dick.
One of the cannon balls went flying straight for Kaen, only for the Saiyan Teen to catch it in his hand, and throw it right back at the cannon, destroying it.
"The war has begun." Kaen growled, before all of Whitebeard's forces began jumping down onto the ice, and went charging at the marine base. "Here and now, is the battle that'll decide the fates of our families."
"The commanders came out too, don't stop firing." One of the Marines called out, as they began charging at the enemy as well.
As the fighting continued, Kaen watched as the pirates and Marines were killing one another. War sickened him to his core, but with something like this going on, there was no way to avoid it. Reaching up with his gaze, Kaen sensed a powerful attack coming towards him and Whitebeard, before he pulled out his shield, and extended it completely, before flying out ahead of the ship, and using his shield to deflect the powerful attack that had been sent their way, sending it upwards to the sky, while a cloud of smoke and dust shrouded him.
"No way. He really is a Saiyan. He deflected a blow from the World's Greatest Swordsman." One of the marines said.
As the shroud of dust began to clear, it revealed Kaen's body was covered in jagged steel, as he was breathing heavily, before his new look receded back into his body.
"Kaen… back on the ship." Pops said. "Jozu could have handled that easily."
"I know… but it's not in my nature to back down in a fight." Kaen huffed, coming back down to the figure head of the Moby Dick. "It's harder then you think to fight your instincts."
"You'll have your chance to fight, don't worry." Whitebeard said. "As soon as one particular Admiral comes into the fray."
Kaen looked at Whitebeard, curious as to what he may be planning, before a bright light washed over them from the sky. Shielding his eyes, Kaen realized who Whitebeard was talking about, as the Admiral made himself known to them.
"Kizaru." Kaen growled.
"Good to see you again monkey boy. Unfortunately for you, this is where you're put down, for good." Kizaru stated.
"I don't think so." Kaen growled.
"Yasakani Sacred Jewel!" Kizaru chanted, sending the attack at them.
"Ki Barrier!" Kaen chanted, forming a dome of Ki over himself and Whitebeard, deflecting the attack.
"Ooh, that's a nifty trick." Kizaru said.
"Tell me something Kizaru. You were at the battle against the invading Saiyans all those years ago, weren't you?" Kaen asked, dropping the barrier.
"So what if I was?"
"Does the name Callio, ring any bells?"
Kizaru looked right at Kaen, before his eyes widened, and a shadow of terror washed over his face.
"Callio?" Kizaru questioned.
"My old man. The Saiyan who helped give me life." Kaen growled.
Kizaru, still in the air, used his powers to get away from Kaen, as he could see the silhouette of the battle hardened Saiyan, standing right behind him, with one of Callio' hands on Kaen' shoulder.
"Came as a shock to me as well, but I recently was able to take a trip to the past." Kaen said, reaching into his bag, and pulling something out. "An' I guess you could say, it was the experience, worthy of a Kings Ransom."
"No, that's impossible." Celeron gasped, spotting what Kaen had in hand.
"What is it?" Chisaki questioned.
"That crown… it belongs to the King of our people, the one who defeated King Vegeta the third, in a Trial of Combat." Celeron stated, gritting his teeth as Kaen placed the circlet crown, on his head.
"I was the key player in a temporal causality loop, and it involved me taking the throne for myself." Kaen said. "So let's see how well you fair, against Saiyan Royalty." He declared, before lunging at Kizaru.
The Admiral's eyes widened when Kaen was in front of him, faster then he could have anticipated. Kizaru wanted to leave, but was unable to as Kaen had a grasp on his arm, and slammed his elbow hard into his sternum. Letting go of Kizaru's arm, Kaen pulled back on the Admiral, and began hitting him with multiple strikes, packed with enough Ki to cause a nuclear sized explosion if released, before Kaen moved above Kizaru' head, and hit him with a spinning axe kick to the shoulder, sending him to the ice bellow.
When the ice particles in the air dissipated, Kizaru could be seen, struggling to take himself out of the crater formed.
"How… are you… managing to make… contact?" Kizaru questioned as Kaen landed on the ground.
"I recently learned something about Ki. Though it goes by a different name here, it's fundamentally the same as Haki. Which means you Logia Type users, don't stand a chance against me." Kaen growled, cracking his knuckles.
"PINACH."
Kaen looked up, and leapt away as Celeron came down, striking the ice with his fist.
"Akuma." Kaen growled.
"It's not true. No way in hell that you traveled back in time, and became the King who bested Vegeta the Third." Celeron growled.
"You don't wanna believe it, but it's true." Kaen said. "Though, I guess we should talk. You never did finish your punishment of cleaning the palace, did you? Guess I'll have to think of something else to use for your punishment."
Celeron's eyes widened in anger, that statement finalizing the fear that was held over him, before he charged at Kaen, with intent to kill.
"You are no King. You're just a blowhard, with an overgrown ego." Celeron declared.
"I'm the blowhard?" Kaen questioned, dodging the punch thrown at him, before grabbing Celeron's arm and hitting hard in the sternum with his elbow. "You're the one, who tried trading Athena and I, for stupid power."
"You two were weak, it would have been a mercy, if you'd only just accepted it." Celeron growled, slamming his clasped fists on Kaen's back.
"You're a shitty older brother, and an even worse uncle to Eri." Kaen hissed, wrapping his arms around Celeron's waist, and slamming him into the icy ground, after he'd jumped into the air. "What was your deal with Overhaul? Help him get his hands on her, and he'll ensure you get your revenge on me?"
"Other way around, brat." Celeron stated, kicking Kaen off him. "I promised him his key to his plans, if he'd help me put a rabid dog like you down, for good." He exclaimed, picking himself up.
"You bastard." Kaen glared, the entire island of Marineford quaking at the power both Saiyans were letting off. "Do you even understand what Overhaul, does to Eri each time he uses his powers on her?"
"I don't give a damn about what he does with his toy." Celeron stated.
"You don't? So you turn a blind eye, knowing that he kills Eri, over and over again, each time he uses his Quirk on her, and you don't care?" Kaen questioned, an icy mist surrounding him, as he used the ice Quirk in his power core. "Saiyan's Wrath…" He chanted, as electricity danced around him, with ice growing over his forearms, with frost accumulating along the edges of his hair. "Arctic Beast!" The Saiyan exclaimed, looking up with his eyes meeting Celeron's revealing the shadow trim was now a deep icy blue, and his irises were a snowy blue, yet filled with the burning rage, of an infuriated father.
One the surface, Celeron didn't seem phased, but within he was quaking in anger and annoyance.
"Damn you, just how many more levels of power, are you gonna climb, before I'm able to bash this through your thick skull?" Celeron questioned, before he went charging at Kaen. "You're never, gonna be able to defeat me."
Kaen pulled his fists back, and held them tight to his sides. Taking in a deep breath, Kaen took a single step forward, before he ducked down and thrust his fists forward, striking Celeron in the chest, with a double punch. The ice that enveloped Celeron spiked out, and glaciated the entire area around him, heading straight for the execution platform.
"Great Eruption!" A voice echoed through the air.
Kaen looked up, before his eyes widened as steam was pouring from the glacier, and a giant fist of magma came flying through the air. Once high enough, the fist of Magma burst like a firework through the air, and came raining down like a volcanic eruption. Whitebeard stared down the rock that came down towards him, before thrusting his spear forward, and piercing the rock, with some minor effort.
"Sure like to be flashy, don't they?" Whitebeard questioned in annoyance.
"Pops." Kaen said, hopping back to him. "You doing okay?"
"I'll be fine my boy." Whitebeard said, before blowing out the flames of the magma rock, as he and Kaen stared down the Marine Admiral who sent this attack their way. "Think I'll have you light the candles for my next birthday, you Magma Punk."
"I'd rather provide the lighting for your funeral." The Admiral said.
"So, that's Akainu?" Kaen asked.
"That it is my boy." Whitebeard said.
"KAEN." Mina's voice echoed through the air, drawing his attention to her. "SAVE ERI, GET HER, BEFORE YOU COME FOR ME."
Kaen could feel the emotion in Mina's voice, before looking towards the area under the platform, a dark expression on his face, as he saw Eri struggling with staying away from Overhaul.
"Pops…"
"Go my boy. Save your daughter." Whitebeard said. "I heard what you told your brother, and if it's true, I don't want that bastard anywhere near my grandchild."
Without another word, Kaen vanished from Whitebeards side, leaving the deck he stood on, splintered and cracked, before he flew past countless marines, freezing them all in a trail of ice, like he was parting the water. Akainu's eyes widened when Kaen suddenly came flying past him, and in an instant, felt his cheek ripple from an unseen strike the Saiyan landed on him, before he slammed into a support pillar for the scaffolding.
"Got you." Overhaul stated, taking Eri into his arms. "Now behave yourself, you're coming back with me."
"No I am not." Eri hissed, before biting him on the forearm.
"Gah." The villain cried out, dropping Eri and gripping the bite mark.
"Texas: SMASH!" Kaen shouted, as he came speeding in, and struck Overhaul in the face with a right straight punch, hitting him on the bridge of his nose.
Overhaul rolled along the ground, as his mask fell off, revealing Kaen had broke his nose, causing him to bleed everywhere. When he looked up, his eyes widened when he saw the frosty demonic form of the Saiyan, while he now had Eri in one of his arms.
"Keep your hands, off my daughter." Kaen growled.
Overhaul growled, before he removed his gloves and slammed his hands on the ground, sending out spikes of stone, towards the Saiyan.
"Give her back, you disgusting animal." Overhaul cried out. "She's the key to my plans, for restoring the Yakuza to our rightful glory."
Kaen raised up a barrier of ice, only for the stones to pierce it, forcing him to back off, but not before one of them sliced through his shoulder, causing the Saiyan to hiss in pain as he returned to the Moby Dick.
"You alright my boy?" Whitebeard questioned.
"I'll be fine." Kaen hissed. "Damn it, I couldn't get up to the scaffolding."
"What was the issue?"
"Chisaki." Kaen stated, putting Eri down, and grabbing his shoulder. "He kept me from getting up there, with his Quirk."
"Will that continue to be a problem?"
"So long as he keeps himself stationed at the base of the scaffolding yeah. Unless we can get him away from it, he'll be able to counter anyone who gets near it." Kaen said, before the ground began to rumble. "What the hell?"
"I think the answer to our conundrum has arrived." Whitebeard smirked, as the silhouette of a creature, a large creature Kaen never thought he'd see again, came through the mist and the smoke of the battlefield.
"Hold on… is that Oars?" Kaen questioned, as the monstrous giant was now visible to everyone. But this giant was different from the one he was familiar with. "Hold on… he looks different."
"This, is Oars Jr. Captain of the Oars Pirates." Whitebeard smiled, as the monster roared in anger sent a Marine Warship, with ice encased on the underside, straight for the scaffolding. "How are you familiar with his father?"
"Moria used my shadow to reanimate his zombie corpse." Kaen stated, following the ship with his eyes. "That monster, with the fighting prowess and abilities of a Saiyan, was not something to take lightly."
The semi frozen ship soared through the air, before it landed on the ground in front of the scaffolding, destroying part of the ground. Overhaul created a barrier to defend himself with, but the pressure from the impact, destroyed that barrier, and knocked the villain onto what remained of the glacier that encased the frozen Celeron.
"Watch your backs, the Giant Unit's moving out." One of Whitebeards pirates called out, as seven giants came charging through the battlefield, heading for Oars, while decimating the battlefield.
"OARS, DON'T DO THIS!" Ace called out from the scaffolding. "YOU'RE AN EASY TARGET FOR THEM. PLEASE TURN AROUND!"
"Hang on Ace." Oars stated, grabbing another ship. "I'm coming for you." He roared out, as he raised the warship over his head.
"Oh, holy shit." One of the seven giants gasped, as they ran to Oars Jr.
"Kill that beast." Another called out.
Oars wasn't gonna give them a chance to attack, as he threw the warship at the smaller giants. The strength and momentum behind the thrown ship, caused the Giant Unit to be sent all the way back to the main shore of the island, while destroying several more warships in their path.
"No way." Mina gasped.
"I never expected such a monstrous creature, to appear and aid Whitebeard." Sengoku hissed.
"Oars opened up a path for us to get into the bay." One of Whitebeards pirates called out, as they all began swarming into the bay.
"Take the bay, and then the plaza."
Kaen and Whitebeard watched, as the war continued to rage on, while Eri just hugging Kaen by the leg, and buried her face to try and drown out the sounds of war. Oars had shown impressive strength, and such loyalty to Ace, that is made the Saiyan feel like they were actually gonna win this battle. An' maybe then, he and Mina could settle for a bit, until their baby was born.
"Out of the way. Ace is my friend, and he needs my help." Oars declared, as he continued marching to the scaffolding. "Don't try to stop me." He exclaimed, using his blades to defend against the giants that were attacking him.
"That Oars is just as stubborn as he ever was." Whitebeard stated, before looking to Oars. "Getting yourself killed, does not make you brave."
"Don't stop me Pops!" Oars stated. "I won't Stop! 'Cause I don't wanna!"
"He sounds like a kid just before he throws a tantrum." Kaen said.
"I won't stop! Not 'till I'm done! Not 'till Ace and Mina are safe!" Oars said. "I wanna save them! I wanna save them now, so they don't hurt no more!"
"I know the feeling." Whitebeard sighed. "Alright men, help out the big guy. Go cover Oars." He declared, causing the others to cheer.
"We have to be careful Pops." Kaen said.
"What do you mean my boy?" Whitebeard asked.
"Neither Celeron, nor Chisaki are dead. An' Moria might be the weakest, but he's still a War Lord, and after having my shadow stolen to fuel his, pet project, I'm pretty sure he's gonna do everything he can, to get his hands on Junior's body, even if that means killing the big guy himself." Kaen explained. "An' I'm positive he'll be able to do it, once he finds an opening."
"I'm coming Ace, Mina." Oars stated.
"I don't think Moria's the one we gotta worry about right now." Whitebeard said.
Kaen looked from Whitebeard, to the War Lords, and his eyes widened when he saw Kuma stepping up to the plate, holding his arms outstretched to the air around him.
"No." Kaen gasped, seeing the air in front of Kuma, pulsing in the shape of a paw, as it shrank with each pulse. "No, not even Oars stands a chance against an Ursa Shock that big."
"A what?" Whitebeard questioned.
"Kuma's most powerful attack." Kaen said. "He used it, and practically took out everyone on Thriller Bark, all because he was ordered to silence us, and it was only a fraction of the size, he's making this one."
"OARS." Mina called out. "RUN AWAY. HE'LL KILL YOU WITH THIS ATTACK."
"I'm gonna save you now Ace, Mina!" Oars stated.
"Stop." Ace called to Oars.
"Nothing's to fear!"
Kaen kept his eyes on Kuma, his grip tightening in his clenched fist as Kuma compressed the attack into the palms of his hands.
"Can't you do something to destroy it?" Whitebeard questioned, as Kuma sent the attack at Oars.
"I can't." Kaen said. "I have no clue, if a Ki attack would erase the Ursa Shock, or set it off prematurely." The Saiyan stated, as the attack made contact with Oars.
"Prepare yourself, for the Ursa Shock!" Kuma stated.
Almost instantly after he said that, Kuma's attack detonated, enveloping Oars in a paw shaped bubble of condensed air pressure, and knocking his hat off his back. The attack caused Oars to let out a cry of pain and anguish, to which no sound came out, as he the air pressure drowned it out. It even pushed Oars back, resulting in the Giant of a giant, to remain standing on shaky legs, before he fell to his hands and knees.
"Papa… do something." Eri said, fear evident in her voice.
"STOP!" Ace and Mina shouted.
The sound of their voices traveled through the air, reaching Oars's ears, before he regained consciousness, after a brief moment of losing it.
"Don't tell me he can still move." Sengoku said, as Oars struggled to get back up to his feet.
"Oars, that's enough." Ace said, pain in his voice, as Oars continued making his way to Ace and Mina. "They won't let you reach me."
"Oars." Kaen called out flying over the air, and grabbing his attention. "Open wide buddy." He declared, pulling his arm back before throwing a bag at Oars.
The tall monstrous beast opened his mouth to question what Kaen just threw, before he inadvertently swallowed the bag, and he suddenly felt better. All his pain was gone, and his injuries were healed.
"Keep going. The damage you've sustained is gone now." Kaen said, before he was shot out of the air by a cannon.
"KAEN." Mina shouted.
Oars's eyes widened, before he reached out his hand, and caught Kaen in his palm, smoke still rising from the teens body. Pulling the Saiyan in closer, Oars saw Kaen's ice was shattered, and the teen was unconscious, with blood coming out of the side of his head.
Continuing to march forward, Oars had a determined glare on his face, as he stormed the enemy troops, reaching his arm out to grab Mina and Ace. At least, that's what he made it look like he was doing, before his hand turned into a fist, and he slammed it down on the bay, right in front of the scaffolding, with his true intentions being taking out one of the Warlords. Slamming his fist down, Oars destroyed the structure with the strength of his race packed behind it, and a glare in his eyes.
"You're all gonna pay, for instigating this war." He declared, before he froze up. "I… I can't move."
"Why'd you stop? Ace and Mina, are right there." Doflamingo said, flying above Oars.
"Ow, my foot." Oars groaned, before his eyes widened, when he saw that his foot, form mid calf down, was missing. The lack of his foot, caused Oars to tumble forward, as Doflamingo landed on the icy surface behind him.
"Now that, was fun." Doflamingo said, with a laugh and a smile.
"OARS!" Ace shouted.
Oars looked up at the two on the scaffolding, waiting for their executions, and through the pain he forced himself to remain conscious as he placed one hand on the ground, and reach out with the other.
"He's infiltrated the Plaza." One of the Marines shouted.
"Gotta go, a little bit more." Oars said. "Don't worry Ace, I can make it for sure."
"Doppleman!" Moria called out, as his shadow grew out from the ground, and headed straight up towards Oars. "Finish him. Spiky Shadow Lizard!"
Doppleman straightened out, turning into a spike as he reached the underside of Oars's chest, just before running through it, and sprouting out from the top of his back.
"NO!" Ace cried out in horror.
Though his heart had been pierced, Oars continued to push on, reaching out with his fist.
"I made it Ace, Mina." Oars said. "I'm here to save you."
Ace and Mina just looked on, in absolute horror as Oars continued pushing himself, while on the brink of death.
"ACE!" Oars cried out, before his body fell limp, and he was on the ground, his clenched fist short of the scaffolding, while Doppleman returned to Moria.
There was a tense moment of silence, as all were shocked at the scene that had just happened. Whitebeard was pissed, but with Eri hiding behind him, he couldn't afford to act rashly, that is until someone came charging at him.
"Shouldn't drop your guard, Whitebeard." The axe wielding giant declared.
Whitebeard just swung his arm around, using his power as both attacks collided with one another. Increasing the output of his Devil Fruit powers, Whitebeard destroyed the axe, before bringing the giant's head down onto the Moby Dick's deck, and enveloped the Marine Giant's head in a tremor, destroying the helmet, and the Marine's brain, before he gripped the giant's hair, and threw him aside like a rag doll.
"I apologize, I did not intend for you to see that, Eri." Whitebeard said, as he took in a deep breath, before gripping his weapon tightly.
"Oars, saved Papa. Didn't he?" Eri asked.
"I'm certain of it child." The elder pirate stated, before addressing his crew. "Now, climb aboard Oars's body, and get to the Plaza!"
The war continued to rage on, as the pirates climbed Oars's body, while the marines fought back against them in the bay, and around the plaza against those that had already infiltrated by climbing the titanic corpse. As the conflicts raged, and the battle grew, Ace and Mina were looking out in horror, not able to understand, why this was happening, all because of them. Their thoughts were interrupted, when they heard footsteps coming towards them.
"Old man." Ace said, turning to see it was Garp.
"What are you doing up here? Not having second thoughts, are you?" Sengoku asked.
"No. They chose to become pirates, this is on them." Garp said. "As much as I hate it though, the same can be said for Eri."
"So then what are…"
"Shut up." Garp stated, shocking Sengoku as he sat down. "I don't wanna talk, I just wanna sit here." He said, taking a seat next to Mina and Ace, before he thought back to when Ace was still a child, and he was bonding with Luffy in their childhoods. "I have no sympathy for criminals. But, family's another matter entirely."
Ace and Mina looked to Garp, both of them confused at why he'd be like this, before Mina's eyes widened when she saw him crying.
"Now what?" Garp questioned. "What am I supposed to do? Ace you fool." He stated, with gritted teeth as tears flowed down his cheeks. "Why couldn't you have just listened to me, and done what I'd asked?"
"Old man." Ace said, trying and failing to hide his emotions.
"If you're feeling any doubt, on what must be done. I'm afraid I just can't take pity on you, Garp." Sengoku said.
"Shut your fucking mouth you bastard." Mina hissed.
Sengoku looked to Mina, and his eyes widened when he saw her glaring at him, with the most venomous glare she's ever given anyone, on her face.
"Can't you see, that a grandson, is trying to have a heart to heart, with his Grandfather?" She questioned, tears in her own eyes.
~Earth~
Mecheal sat at his desk, nothing on his mind, as he thought about his granddaughter, and the pain he felt when he saw his daughter-in-law, crying at the funeral that had been held for Kaen, Mina, and Eri. Fujio tried to make an appearance, and say this is why she shouldn't have trusted Mina with Kaen to begin with, and that their daughters death was on him, but he was silenced by Mecheal, as the grandfather had a fit of rage towards his own son, before he stopped, and allowed for the heroes and police to take Fujio away.
"Mecheal?" Arcane asked, bringing a cup of tea to him. "Are you alright?"
"It's been… nearly three months, since that day." Mecheal said. "An' yet, I can't help feel, like I only just lost her yesterday."
Arcane had never seen the Guardian of Earth so down trodden. He was usually a stoic person, with a heart of gold, and a calm mind. But she could sense, he was in turmoil, over the loss of the granddaughter he never got the chance to properly know, or bond with.
"For so long, I thought that if I distanced myself from my family, after I became Guardian of Earth, that I'd keep my loved ones safe. Yet here I am, mourning the loss of a granddaughter I never got to know, beyond two meetings. The day she was born, and the day I helped them figure out a mystery, they could not solve."
"Could the device, maybe have sent them somewhere else?" Arcane asked.
"No. The floating fortress above the USJ was reclaimed by Akuma, as he used it to leave the planet. He'd only be capable of reclaiming such a war machine if Kaen were dead or…" Mecheal stopped, his eyes widening when he realized he was an idiot.
"Or what?"
"Or if he was out of range, for the fortress to register him as the master." Akuma stated, before getting to his feet. "Arcane, do we still have that Scouter from the Saiyan that arrived here before Gine and her family?"
"Yes."
"Monitor it, search for any signs of talk about a challenge, or a Frost Demon Invasion plan." Mecheal said.
"There are three channels for that Mecheal, which one do I monitor?" Arcane asked.
"All of them. Get Gine's daughter to make you as many more of those Scouters as you need with…"
"Grandfather?" Mina's voice echoed in his head, forcing Mecheal to stop again.
"Kami?"
"They're alive." Mecheal stated. "I just heard Mina's voice in my head. It wasn't a delusion, it was more like how I use telepathy to communicate with you."
"So then that means…"
"My powers have connected with Mina, and I know exactly where she and the others are." Mecheal stated, a gleam of power in his eye.
~Marineford~
Kaen groaned, as he felt pain radiate through his entire body. The world around him was dark, but the sounds of the battlefield could still be heard. As he tried to get up, he was suddenly reminded as to what had happened.
"Oars." Kaen called out, pushing himself out of the giant monsters hand, and looking to the orange haired man, only to gasp, when he saw the lifeless body. "No."
"What's that?" He heard someone question.
"Something's falling from the sky."
Looking at Oars, Kaen looked to the battle, before looking up, his eyes widening in shock when he saw a ship, full of Impel Down Escapees, falling to the battlefield bellow. An' not to his surprise, there was one person leading this suicidal tactic.
"You just have to overdo it, every time." Buggy said.
"This is because of his Death Wink." A new voice said.
"Oh, so now everything's my fault?" Iva's voice echoed, as the falling inmates came closer.
"Who cares whose fault it is, we're gonna die. It's all frozen down there." Luffy's voice echoed through the air.
"Yep, that's Luffy for you." Kaen sighed.
"KAEN." Mina shouted.
Kaen looked up, to see he was right at the base of the scaffolding, his eyes wide with shock.
"Go and save them. I'll be fine. Just make sure none of them die." Mina called out.
Kaen just looked to her, before he sighed, and crouched down, before taking to the air, as he just narrowly avoided being cut down by a Marine with a sword. Flying through the air, Kaen caught Jinbe and Luffy in his arms, before landing on the Moby Dick and using his ice to create a slide that safely caught all the other prisoners, and brought them down to the battlefield, without a single death by free falling.
"Kaen." Luffy cheered.
"You just had to make such a flashy entrance, didn't you?" Kaen sighed, putting them down. "You're both lucky Mina prioritized your lives, over her own. Otherwise I'd have grabbed her while leaving you to your own devices."
"I believe Papa would have still saved them, even if he chose Mama over grabbing them." Eri said.
"Eri, you're okay." Luffy smiled, happy to see the little girl, before he turned to the battlefield. Taking in a deep breath, Luffy let the words in his heart, ring out at the top of his lungs. "ACE, MINA. I'M HERE!" He declared, just before the stolen navy ship came crashing down, destroying part of the ice, and breaking into hundreds of pieces.
"LUFFY!" Mina and Ace cried out.
"Of all things…" Sengoku growled, addressing Jinbe. "You have the gull to ally yourself with Straw Hat Luffy. After all we've done for you, you repay us like this?"
"That's right. I choose to resign from the Seven War Lords. I will not serve a corrupt Government, that is willing to take the life, of a woman with child." Jinbe stated.
"Long time no see, old man." Kaen didn't have to look over his shoulder to know, that a man made of sand, was behind them, ready to kill Whitebeard.
"You never learn." Whitebeard stated.
The moment Crocodile swung his hook at Whitebeard, Kaen instantly kicked the weapon away, with a leering glare directed at the man.
"You're not gonna lay a single scratch on him." Kaen hissed.
Pulling his leg back, Kaen spun around intending on locking Crocodile's neck in the back of his knee, but the former War Lord turned into sand and escaped before the Saiyan could lock him in.
"You're Crocodile right?" Kaen asked, both feet planted on the ground. "Whatever beef you have with Pops, is gonna have to wait until after this war is over. We've got more pressing matters at hand, unless you're that desperate to get your ass handed to you."
"Cheeky brat." Crocodile hissed. "You know there's only one reason I'm here. If you wanna save Straw Hats brother and that Saiyan woman so bad then be my guest. But I'm killing Whitebeard, and there's nothing you can do to stop me, so stay out of my way."
"So this old guy is Whitebeard, I thought so." Luffy said, stepping up next to Kaen. "Just stay away from him Crocodile. He's Ace's Captain and friend, so I'm not gonna let him get hurt."
"Well would you look at that, it runs in the family." Kaen heard Marco say, before several of Whitebeards crew surrounded Crocodile and held blades to his throat.
"Don't let him get close to Pops you guys." Kaen said.
"Right."
"Hey Pops. I got someone I'd like you to…"
Kaen's introduction was stopped, when the sound of shattering ice echoed through the air, and a bright light illuminated the area.
Kaen turned to the epicenter of the light, and gasped when he saw Celeron, holding Chisaki off the ground by his face, just as the last remnants of mist seeped from the Clean Freak, to the power obsessed Saiyan.
"No. No, no, no, no." Kaen repeated. "This isn't good. This is not good."
"What did your brother just do?" Whitebeard questioned.
"He just stole Chisaki's Quirk, Overhaul. He can use it to do anything with deconstructing and reconstructing the molecules of anything he touches now, even living matter." Kaen said, as he stared in horror at Celeron using his newly acquired Quirk to destroy Chisaki, his molecules floating through the air, before he went walking around, repeating the process with anyone he came in contact with, until he came across Oars's severed foot and shin.
"Oars's foot?" Whitebeard questioned.
Kaen watched in absolute horror, as Celeron touched the dismembered flesh, before all the swirling mass he'd accumulated began swirling around him. Placing his hands on himself, Celeron began merging the floating molecules of those he murdered, and added them to his own body, making him bigger, and stronger.
"No way." Marco said.
"He's as big as Kaido." Whitebeard stated.
Kaen looked at Celeron, before his head began to throb, as if someone were taking a hammer to it, while the Wukong Gem in his chest began lighting up as it revealed itself.
"What's wrong?" Jinbe questioned.
Kaen held his head, before his eyes shot open, and he turned to Luffy. "It's called, the Fusion Dance, at least according to Jenny's notes and translations." He heard his voice echo through a memory, but had no clue of where this memory came from, or what he was doing. It didn't even feel like his memory, yet at the same time, it did.
"Pops, think you can have Marco cover us for a while?" Kaen asked.
"Whatever for my boy?"
"As it stands, at my current power level I can't beat that monstrosity that used to be my brother on my own. An' I can't use a Senzu Bean because the bag I could get them from was destroyed when that cannon ball hit me. But I know a technique, I could do with Luffy to not only combine our strengths, but multiply them tenfold." Kaen explained. "It'll last for only thirty minutes, but if we do this right we should be able to end this war, with no more bloodshed."
Whitebeard looked to Kaen, before looking back to the battlefield.
"Get behind me. I'll cover you myself." Whitebeard stated.
"Right." Kaen said, before turning to Luffy. "Alright, I'm gonna need you to mirror my movements, exactly. We've only got one shot at this, and if we mess it up, Ace and Mina are dead."
"I don't understand what's going on, but I'll do what I have to, in order to save my brother, and Mina." Luffy said, giving Eri his straw hat to hold.
"That's exactly what I want to hear." Kaen smirked. "Pops? I don't wanna think it'll come to this, but if this goes wrong, and Mina and I don't come out of this alive, could you…"
"I'll raise Eri, to the best of my abilities, until the day I draw my dying breath." Whitebeard said. "You have my word on that."
"Thanks Pops." Kaen said, before he and Luffy ran a bit further into the deck. "Ready Luffy?" He questioned, as they were equal spacing apart.
"Ready Kaen."
"Alright. Remember, mirror my movements exactly, we've only got one shot at this." Kaen said.
"Let's do it."
Standing apart, Kaen and Luffy moved in perfect synchrony, starting with their feet to get closer, while moving their arms in a crescent motion, mirroring one another.
"Fu…"
When they were close enough and their arms were full extended to their other sides, Luffy raised his right leg and thrust his arms back, with Athena raising her left leg while doing the same with her arms.
"Sion…"
Upon thrusting their arms forward, and extending their raised leg, the pointer fingers on each hand touched.
"HAAAAA!"
Both Luffy and Kaen stood there, as their bodies lit up in pillars of flames. Luffy was enveloped in orange-red flames, while Kaen was enveloped in blue. The two pillars of fire shot into the air, as the two fighters bodies began to combine into one, with the show of flames drawing the attention of everyone who was there, witnessing this spectacle of a flaming pillar, before the light died down, leaving the pirates and marines in shock.
Smoke rose from the area where the single fighter now stood, arms crossed and an intimidating leer on his face. Stepping forward, Kaen moved past the shocked Jinbe, and stood next to Whitebeard as he put one hand on Eri's head, ruffling her hair while scratching her between the ears.
"So… this is the technique huh?" Whitebeard asked. "Where did you learn this?"
"I don't know." The Warrior said, his voice sounding like Luffy and Kaen talking at the same time. "The memory of this technique felt so foreign, and yet to familiar at the same time. It's hard to explain, but it's as if there's another Kaen, who's living life the way he's always been supposed to. But I do know, I'm neither Luffy, or Kaen. I'm someone else entirely."
"What do we call you, if you're neither of them?" Jinbe asked.
Standing there beside Whitebeard, was a young man with a body that was perfectly balanced between lean and muscular. While his hair was spiked out similarly to Kaens, he did have bangs framing the sides of his face. He was dressed in a red vest, with black martial arts Gi pants, Kaens scar over his right eye, and Luffy's scar under his left.
"Good question." He said, taking Luffy's hat from Eri, and putting it on his head. "Call me… Laen." He smirked, with Luffy's big teeth bearing grin.
