'He's definitely hollow... that's why everything sinks in so much.' Harmony thought as she dashed in towards Ballgoon, who started pumping up his arm. 'Can't shove my fist into him and just turn huge, I have no way of keeping it in him long enough to pop him!' She slid under his swing, and rolled to the side as he spun his arm around to try slamming down at her. 'Wait! That's it!' Harmony flipped up, and rushed in going for a gut punch, that does connect but just sinks in. "You idiot~" he reeled back to counter, but she suddenly bit down on her other hands thumb, blowing hard enough to puff her cheeks up.
The air flowed into her other arm, and expanded rapidly. Ballgoon's body took the shape of her fist, causing him to cough out all the air in his body. She used this and jumped forward, launching herself off the hill to gain some speed as she spun her absolutely massive arm around, slamming it into the ground, the tensed up skin taking all the impact. Ballgoon coughed up blood and passed out as her arm deflated out through her mouth, flinging her all the way towards the Nakama.
"That's all of them minus tubby~" Kasai stated, dusting his hands after tieing up Mimi, Meg, and Mercury and chucking them back onto their ship. Minx came to, shaking the rubble off of himself as Zakk came back up limping. "Hey, thanks you guys. You took those guys out for me~" Minx chuckled, scratching his chin. He then looked down at the daggers, which really weren't that unique. 'I need my real weapons... these daggers are holding me back,' he thought, sighing as he holsters them. He looked around before spotting a crater in the shape of a fist, where a dazed and deflated Ballgoon laid.
He met Kasai at the ship, and they both tossed the popped balloon of a man up, and pushed the ship off till the current took them. The two then made their way back to Nakama, where a little chaos was already happening. "You must let me repay you!" Zakk said towards the ship's deck as he was bigger than the sloop. A short child-sized Harmony had her hands on her hips as she spoke, her voice like that of a kid. "No way, as far as I know, they were here for Kiwi, which makes this our fault." He shook his head, "I don't care! I'm an artist and your lack of a jolly roger is an absolute sin!" Julio and Kiwi both were still confused staring at the child Harmony, who sighed. "Wait, were you a pirate before retirement?" she asked.
"Not really, but I knew some good ones. I've painted dozens of rogers in my day." He stood proudly as Kasai and Minx made it, hopping on board. They also stared at the child captain in confusion. "Uhm... alright fine..." she said finally caving. Zakk cheered, and ran up to his barn, using the path as steps. He pulled up on the floor, pulling the whole thing up, revealing a whole lot of art supplies properly sized for him. He grabbed a black sail, and started sketching and painting. After a few minutes he called out to the crew, "I got it!"
The sail was set up, and it held the usual skull of all jolly rogers, but the crossbones were designed as if they were two quaver music notes made out of bone, and the area around the skull had various small notes decorating it. Harmony, now back to regular size, stared up at it with a surprised expression. The details were perfect, and each note was a various color. "You guys are the Melody Pirates right? Even though you guys don't seem like a real musical crew, it fits the name," Zakk sheepishly informed. Harmony just started giggling, and then started full gut laughing. "It's perfect! The Melody Pirates are official with this!" The crew all cheered, and Zakk teared up. Something about the way she reacted reminded him of a time 56 years ago...
"Say kid, what do you wanna be when you grow up?" A man in a hat made of straw, about 17, looked up at the humongous man, no ounce of fear as he was smiling with confidence in his eyes. "The Pirate King!" Zakk chuckled, and revealed the man a jolly roger, a skull and crossbones with a huge curly mustache, but it was gold instead of the mans black stache. "I mean, it's probably dumb, no one's gonna get it's cuz of your name-" he's cut off as the man started giggling, and then started full gut laughing. "It's perfect! Gol D. Roger will be a name known around the world with a flag like that!"
