" One day, it's sworn, I'll go to Elbaf, the village of warriors. " Assured Usopp. " It is there that I could become a brave warrior of the seas. "

" Yeah, we'll all go there ! " Luffy shouted.

" Will we be able to become giants, once there ? " Wanted to know Menma.

" I don't know, but that would be too cool. " Luffy remarked.

" Elbaf ! Elbaf ! Elbaf ! " Then shouted the trio.

" A country where only giants live… " Vivi noticed. " It's a bit hard to believe and yet it wouldn't surprise me. "

At that moment, Nami fell to her knees in front of her, with her face all white.

"Are you okay, Nami ? You are all white. "

" Fish… " Said the redhead, with a look of horror. " We were almost eaten ... by a fish. "

" Huh ... it's true that it surprises but, at least, we are alive. "

" That's not much compared to the whale from the other time. " Neni suddenly noticed. " However, considering the size of this fish, its stomach would have been about the size of our boat ! Suddenly, if it had swallowed us, we would have been immediately covered by its gastric juices ! It would have been a slow and painful death, baby!

" Shut up ! " Nami roared.

" Aniki. " Johnny cried, seeing the state of Zoro's legs. " Have you seen your legs? "

" Hum? It's nothing. "

" How is that " nothing " ? " Yosaku questioned, arriving with sewing thread. " Do you want to be amputated, or what ? Stay quiet while we treat you. "

" No way ! I have my training to follow! Besides, you had better do the same. "

" Hey, Sanji, to eat. " Cried Gin. " Make yourself useful. "

" Shut up ! I'm making pastries for my little divas ! Wait your turn. "

Seeing everyone agitated all around him, Bruno could only be surprised enough to see such animation.

" For an atmosphere, it's an noisy atmosphere. "

" Surprised ? " Raynare questioned, arriving behind his back.

" Rather… nostalgic ! My group was the same! They liked to make noise and, several times, I had to call them to order! Nevertheless, I always found it pleasing to see them smile ! It showed they were happy. "

" I have the impression to hear Lucy speak. " Raynare remarked, turning to see the blonde.

She thus saw her friend, on the ground, leaning against the mast, her eyes closed.

" Hum? " Said the fallen angel, approaching her. " Hey, now is not the time to rest, lazy. "

However, crouching down next to the blonde, she quickly noticed the redness of her face as well as the fact that she seemed to have a hard time breathing.

" Lucy? "

" The course looks good. " Nami remarked, with the Eternal Pose in hand. "A chance to have found this object. "

Seeming less happy than she was, Vivi was just staring at the ocean, while displaying a sad gaze.

" You don't have to worry, Vivi. " Nami assured her, slapping her on the back.

" That … ? " Said her.

" We will go home Alabasta, before the worst happens ! Crocodile will only have to prepare well ! Luffy arrives to kick his ass. "

Seeing Nami thus display a confident smile, Vivi could only nod, while affirming.

" Yes, you're right ! We will be going home in a few days! And it's all thanks to you ! I don't know how to thank you. "

" Oh, but you don't have to worry, let's see. " Nami assured her, putting her hands on her shoulders.

Nonetheless, Vivi shivered as Nami's gaze darkened somewhat as she put on a rather unhealthy smile.

" Yes ! We'll just have to discuss this once we take a look at your country's economy ! We don't have to rush to get a… reward. "

" You speak. Admit that you only think of that. " Gin retorted. " I'm not even sure the princess would be with us if it wasn't for this promised reward. "

" Shut-up ! Otherwise, I'll deprive you of meals. "

"What ? By what right ? "

" Lucy ! " They heard then. " Oi ! LUCY ! "

" Hum? " Said the crew, turning to Raynare.

Shaking the Lucy's body, she struggled to make her react, while Lucy seemed to be feverish.

" Oi, what's going on? " Zoro asked her.

" She seems to feel bad. " Raynare told him, patting her cheek a little. " Lucy, open your eyes. "

" I have ... I'm hot ! " The blonde whispered, struggling to breathe.

" What about Lucy ? " Luffy questioned, arriving then.

" Lucy-chan, are you okay ? " Sanji wanted to know, rushing to the blonde at once.

However, being ejected he gave way to Nami while the redhead examined her friend's body.

" She seems to me to be feverish ! She must have caught cold because of the different climates since our arrival on the Grand Line ! Let her rest in her room. "

Getting ready to lift her, Raynare was surprised to hear.

" It's not because of the climate. "

" Hum ? " Raynare wondered, seeing Bruno crouch down in front of Lucy.

Seeming to be staring at her, he suddenly grabbed Lucy's T-shirt and pulled it off, to everyone's surprise.

'' What are you doing, asshole ? " Roared the fallen angel, about to strike him.

" Here. " Bruno said suddenly, pointing to an area of Lucy's stomach.

Immediately, those around him could see a strange red and purple mark on the abdomen of the sorceress, looking like a kind of sting.

" What is that ? " Wanted to know Nami.

" No idea. " Bruno admitted, getting up. " Nevertheless, this is the source of the evil. "

" How did you manage to find out so quickly ? " Vivi asked him.

" For that, I just had to look at the reactions of her body ! A fever due to a change in climate would not be so sudden ! No, if you want my opinion, it is a reaction due to a harmful bacteria or poison. "

" Po ... Poison? " Frightened Usopp. " Wait, but how ...? Would that be Baroque Works? "

" Perhaps … ! Or a poisonous little anima l! In any case, it is indeed better to put her to bed and give her medication. "

Looking at the crew, he wanted to know.

" Who is the doctor among you ? "

Immediately, Luffy, Usopp and Johnny pointed at Nami.

" I am not a doctor, you idiots. " Retorted the sailor. " I just have some notions of medicine. "

" Are you not a doctor? " Wanted to know Gin, looking at Bruno.

" No ! I can just tell when someone is feeling bad and the reason ! However, I have no idea how to cure them. "

" As we often say, sleeping and drinking are the best medicine. " Sanji assured, taking Lucy in his arms. " First, let's go to bed and let her rest ! And if she is better, I will prepare something for her to get her back in shape ! It's the best we can do. "

Seeing him leave, Bruno couldn't help but notice.

" You are pirates ... you are being chased by various people who want to kill you ... you venture into dangerous seas ... and all this without a doctor ? "

" It's not for lack of trying to have one. " Luffy retorted. " Crocus didn't want. "

" Doctor ? " Raynare repeated. " Yes ! Lucy needs to see a doctor. "

" And where do you want us to find one? " Zoro asked her. " Already it would be necessary to reach Alabasta and from what I understood, it is a few days from here. "

" It is therefore necessary to make a detour and find a closer island ! We just have to follow Bruno's log-pose ! It is already pointing to another island. "

" No way. " Neni retorted. " You know very well that time is running out ! We must help Princess-Wednesday country. "

" To bad for that. " Raynare retorted. " Lucy comes first. "

" We are talking about a potential war ! We cannot ignore this. "

Growling then, Raynare turned to Luffy.

" Luffy ... even if I regret to say it, you are the captain ! What must we do ? Continue towards Alabasta or follow Bruno's log-pose ? "

" Huh ... I ... " Luffy said, thinking.

Finally, after getting his brain to work enough to understand the urgency of the situation, he cried out.

" We need everyone to be able to beat Crocodile ! Therefore, I think it is best if Lucy sees a doctor first ! Besides, we may still have some time before this war ravages Alabasta. "

Immediately, a smile spread over the face of the fallen angel who, for once, was happy with Luffy's decision. Still, someone retorted.

" I don't know if we will arrive in time by doing so. "

" What do you mean ? " Wanted to know the crew, turning to Nami.

Then leaving, the redhead then returned with a newspaper.

" What is that ? " Wanted to know Luffy.

Ignoring his question, Nami handed the newspaper to Vivi, and confessed.

" We received this a few days ago! And there is an article about Alabasta. "

" A… Alabasta ? "

Grabbing the newspaper, Vivi opened it to focus on the pages devoted to news from her country. Her eyes widened, she couldn't hide the fear as well as the surprise.

" Not impossible. "

" What's up ? " Yosaku asked her. "The war has already started? "

" 300,000 Imperial soldiers deserted to join the rebel army. " Read Vivi. " This is not true ! At the start, there were 600,000 soldiers to contain 400,000 rebels…! But today, everything has been reversed ! The soldiers are half as many as the rebels ! This will prompt the revolutionary army to attack. "

" Why did you not have shown us this diary earlier? " Neni roared, turning to Nami. " Time is running out, damn it ! "

" And what would that have changed? " Nami asked him. " We couldn't have gone faster! All that would have engendered was constant panic at Vivi ! Nothing else ! However, you all need to understand something ! War in Alabasta can break out at any time. "

Swallowing, Usopp understood.

" If we take Lucy to see a doctor, it might take too long to get to Alabasta before the war starts ! In fact, we're not even sure we'll get there on time, even following the Eternal Pose. "

" Luffy, as Raynare said, you are the captain. " Nami informed him. " It's up to you to make a decision. "

" He has already made his decision. " Raynare roared, walking towards her. " What the fuck do you want ? What do we have to do with these people ? What matters is Lucy ! So we have to … "

" Raynare, SHUT-UP ! " Nami roared.

Surprised the fallen angel fell silent, while Nami stared at her angrily. Of course, Raynare had been able to see that look several times. However, it was rare for Nami to get so mad at her.

" A million lives are at stake in Alabasta ! How can you say this is nothing ? Do you have no feelings about the massacre that is likely to take place? "

Supporting her gaze, Raynare finally replied in a cold tone and without the slightest lie.

" No, I have none ! If this can save Lucy, I would let them die without lifting a finger. "

" How can you say that ? "

Gripping the collar of her clothes, Vivi stood in front of her, displaying an angry face as she began to cry.

" How can you say that ? " She repeated. " Do you have no ounce of humanity in you ? "

" It's the case. " Raynare replied calmly, without trying to defend herself. " Other than a few people, I hate humans ! So whether they die or not, I don't care. "

" Hey. " Said Johnny, putting his hand on her shoulder. " Don't say something you might regret ! After all, you are human too. "

Her gaze widened, Raynare immediately turned to him, and the man was surprised to feel the tip of a spear of light at his neck.

" You, listen to me. " Raynare advised him, with a face filled with rage. " I am not a vulgar human. "

Suddenly jumping, she dodged a blade, which cut off a few strands of her hair. Still enraged Raynare stared at Zoro who was facing her, sword in hand.

" I also have a tip for you: calm down before it gets out of hand. "

" You, take care of your own business. "

" There is something really wrong with you. " The man noticed, staring at her. " In fact, the more I think about it, the more I tell myself that you are telling the truth ! You are not human. "

Looking Raynare in the eyes, he asked her, with the utmost seriousness.

" Who are you ? Or rather… what are you ? "

" Zoro…? " Nami wondered. " What are you talking about ? Raynare is just… Raynare! She is a devil fruit user who…"

A sadistic laugh was suddenly heard behind the redhead's back. Turning around, she saw the fallen angel snicker, still asserting.

" You really believe it ? I mean, to that lie ? "

" Raynare ? "

Showing her wings, Raynare immediately took off before diving into the water.

" What ? " Neni wondered, seeing her do it. " She's crazy. "

" Sister-Raynare! " Johnny and Yosaku yelled, getting ready to dive into the water.

Nevertheless, having circled the boat, Raynare reappeared, still with her wings behind her back.

" What … ? " Gin wondered. " Can she swim ? "

" That is not surprising. " Zoro retorted, continuing to stare at Raynare. " Don't forget the Arlong Park battle ! She managed to get out of a large pool on her own ! Luffy could never have done it. "

Pointing his sword at Raynare, the man cried out.

" Admit it ! You have no power related to a devil fruit ! In the end, you are like Bruno ! You were born with your powers, right ? "

Just staring at him, Raynare kept her smile, while asserting.

" I never hid it ! I am a superior being ! I am a true fallen angel. "

" A real ... fallen angel ? " Usopp repeated, stepping back. " It's… It's impossible ! God doesn't exist ! Well, I believe. "

" Maybe in this world. " Approved Raynare. " But in mine, yes ! "

" In yours ? " Nami repeated. " But ... But what are you talking about? You… Are you also from another dimension ? Who are you at the end? "

Creating two spears in her hand, Raynare looked threatening, while asserting.

" The one who will exterminate you if Lucy doesn't see a doctor ! Lucy and I are different from all those pathetic humans on this planet ! Our health and our lives are more important than anything else ! Lucy wants to go back to her world to see her friends again and I will help her do it. "

" In her world? Wait, Lucy too…? "

" Grow or I'll kill you. "

At that moment, an old feeling that the fallen angel had succeeded in making in party disappear appeared in plain sight: her pure wickedness. The young woman had softened since her fight against Don Krieg. Nevertheless, for the first time in a long time, a dark aura enveloped her as she ordered.

" We forget Alabasta and go see a doctor. "

" Make your spears disappear immediately. " Zoro ordered her, directing his sabers towards her.

Seeing them about to fight, someone finally put his hand on Raynare's shoulder.

" Hum ? " Said the fallen angel, turning around.

In an instant, a punch hit her cheek and saw her crash against the railing.

" What … ? " She roared, standing up.

Nonetheless, she froze in surprise, seeing Luffy standing in front of her with a tight point.

" RAYNARE! " He roared. " I forbid you to say such nonsense or hurt your friends. "

" Mugiwara ? "

" What do you think ? " Roared the pirate. " That none of us are worried about Lucy's health, right? Think again, we are all worried about her ! But you know as well as I do that if we ever come too late to save Alabasta, Lucy will regret it the most and think it's all her fault. "

" SHUT UP, MUGIWARA ! " Shouted Raynare. " You… you… you don't know anything about me and I… "

" Yes ! I don't know why you hate humans so much. " Luffy approved. " But that's no reason to hate those who haven't done anything to you ! Is this how god taught you to live your life ? "

Her eyes widened, the fallen angel growled. However, finally, she fled and ran to join the patient.

" I hate you, dirty pathetic human. "

Watching her go, Luffy did nothing to stop her. Nevertheless, turning to him, Zoro demanded.

" Luffy! You seem to me to know a lot ! So tell us what's going on! Who is Raynare ? "

Not even listening to them anymore, Vivi had fallen to her knees, and cared only for what would soon happen in her country.

"If I don't get back to Alabasta in time, it's going to be a bloodbath! And Crocodile will take the throne! What should I do ? What should I do to save my country? "

" In fact, Raynare doesn't come from our world. " Luffy confessed. " But I don't know where her came from exactly! But other than that she's a fallen angel, I don't know anything else about her. "

"Is she from another world ?" Bruno wondered. " She is like me ? "

" And for Lucy? "

" It's the same thing ! Except that she comes from a magical world! I didn't understand everything, but she belonged to a group called "Fairy…" ! I forgot. "

" Fairy Tail! " Nami added, remembering that Lucy had mentioned this name a few times. " Wait, her old band? What have they become ? "

" Lucy just said they were in danger and that's why she came here and followed me. "

" What ? But why did you recruit them, then? " Yosaku asked him.

" Bah… because their powers are cool. "

" Is that a reason? "

" Most important. " Gin retorted. " Where exactly do they come from? How did they get here ? Who were they before they came to our world ? Does God really exist? So what did Raynare do so badly to become a fallen angel ? "

" I don't know. "

" You're kidding ? "

" Everybody ! " Suddenly shouted Nami, looking at the sky. " Maneuver the boat ! "

" Huh " ? The crew wondered.

" A storm is approaching. "

" A storm ? " Usopp wondered, looking at the sky. " But the sky is blue. "

" Do what I say ! The air pressure has dropped! Set the sails to port. "

"Air pressure ? " Bruno wondered, trying to see a difference in the climate. " What is she talking about ? I don't feel anything ! "

" A strong wind is about to fall on us. " Nami continued. " Hurry up! "

" Yes. "

Being the only one left behind, Bruno was surprised to see the others start to activate, with astonishing efficiency. Even Menma was helping. And soon, the boat changed course.

" Unbelievable ! However, does this really serve any purpose ? I still don't feel any… "

Suddenly Bruno widened his eyes, feeling a light breeze sweeping across his face.

" What … ? " He wondered, looking up.

Immediately, he saw many gray clouds, then black, hiding the blue sky, while the wind grew stronger and stronger. Then, turning around, he couldn't help but take a step back, as he saw a huge hurricane forming behind the ship.

" But how … ? "

" Wow ! A hurricane ! " Luffy yelled, running next to it.

" Unbelievable. " Cried Menma. " It is gigantic. "

" He… He is right in the middle of our old path. " Gin remarked, swallowing. " If we had kept the same course, we would be dead. "

"How did she do it ? " Wanted to know Bruno, looking at Nami. " This girl… she doesn't study climate change… no, she feels it ! Unbelievable ! So, do all of this crew members have such awesome skills ? "

Remaining, meanwhile, near Lucy, Raynare looked at the blonde, while she was lying in bed. Breathing with difficulty she seemed to be in pain with each breath, as her face grew redder and redder.

Stomping her foot, Raynare couldn't help but show her frustration, while the blonde was in really bad shape.

" It is necessary to find a doctor, as soon as possible. "

Suddenly having an idea. She pulled the blanket off Lucy's body a bit, and rummaged around her belt. Taking out her bunch of keys, Raynare examining them one by one before finally finding the one she was looking for.

" Virgo ! You hear me ? " She cried, to the key. " Oh hey ! Virgo ! We need you. "

Nevertheless, the servant did not appear at all beside her.

" VIRGO! I beg you ! It is necessary that … "

" Raynare-sama? "

Startled a little, Raynare saw Virgo behind her back. Of course, if Virgo had appeared, it wasn't because of Raynare's magical powers. If the maid was present, it was because she had used her own power to appear out of her key.

" You wanted to see me? " She asked, with a broad smile.

" Yes ! You must help Lucy. "

" I can't do anything. " Virgo retorted, as her face turned stoic again. " Lucy has a disease that has never known us ! We have no medicine that can cure her. "

" What ? Is this a joke? "

"If we could cure her, Capricorn would have given her medicine long ago."

" Do something, I beg of you. " Raynare implored her, taking her shoulders. " Virgo, you have to save her ! You must save Lucy. "

Shaking her a bit, the fallen angel finally confessed.

" I don't want to see her suffer. "

Looking at her, Virgo suddenly lowered her gaze. Then suddenly, gritting her teeth, she mumbled, in a cold tone.

" I can do nothing for her ! And I have neither the desire. "

" What ? But… But why ? "

" I ... I hate her. "

Then she left, under the surprised gaze of Raynare.

" Virgo ? "

Clenching her fist, she turned to the door and began to leave the room.

" If that's the way it is, I'm going to steal Bruno's log-pose and rush Lucy to the next island ! If the others want to go to Alabasta, go to hell ! When Lucy is healed, we will both go on our own, and we will manage to reach Raftel, on our own. "

However, no sooner had she opened the door than she heard.

" I have a request for you. " Vivi cried.

" Huh ? "

" I know that I might ask you too much when you have already been very nice for deciding to take me home! However, as you all know, my country is currently in dire straits! That's why I would like us to speed up! I need this boat to get to our destination as quickly as possible. "

Eyes widening as her listened to her, Raynare clenched her fist, while barely hiding her anger. She hated that damn princess. She hated her. For her, she was none other than Lucy's state manager. And besides, she didn't even seem to care.

"That bitch. " Raynare thought, walking towards her. " I will … ! I WILL … ! "

" Therefore, let's follow the direction of Bruno's Log-Pose and find an island and a doctor. " Vivi continued.

"What ? " Raynare wondered, stopping. "

" Yes, we have to get Lucy-san treated as quickly as possible and then we'll go to Alabasta ! Because we will never be able to reach our maximum speed, with one of our sick people. "

" It's true. " Luffy assured.

" Well said, Vivi-san. " Sanji assured. " Let's go find a doctor. "

" As long as everyone agree. " Gin simply stated.

" Are you really sure, Princess-Wednesday ? " Neni asked her. " I mean, the lives of a million people are on the line now. "

" Of course I am ! Either way, we'll need Lucy to fight the enemy ! She is a friend who needs help as much as I do. "

Nodding her head, Nami finally orders.

" Bruno, your Log-Pose. "

" Here. " Assured the man, throwing it towards the redhead.

" Thank you ! In this case, change of course, everyone. "

" Aye! "

And while everyone activated, Raynare remained still, still surprised at Vivi's decision.

" But why ? "

" Raynare ! " Suddenly called Vivi, turning to her. " You can think whatever you want with me or insult me with all names ! This will not prevent me from appreciating each member of this crew ! What I want is to thank you the best I can, to show you my gratitude for letting me come with you. "

Then taking Raynare's hands, she asserted.

" Carue and Neni-san are not the only ones I consider my friends ! Lucy-san is also my friend! And I hope with all my heart that we can become that too, Raynare-san. "

Gritting his teeth, Raynare suddenly ends up going to join Lucy. However, before leaving, Vivi thought she heard her mumble.

" Thank you ... Vivi. "
