I don't own One Piece only my OC Kisho.


This is getting really old said Ussop.

If the Marines keep attacking us and we keep running away, I'm going to drop dead from exhaustion said Ussop.

Not if that cannonball gets us before that, shut up and row said Nami.

Hey Luffy a little help would be nice said Sanji.

Sorry I've got no strength, I haven't eaten in hours said Luffy.

How about a taste of the back of my hand said Sanji.

What the heck? Said Chopper.

They're shooting at each other? Said Zoro.

Ussop then boasts about how he knew the Marines would turn on each other.

When did you predict that? Asks Zoro.

Who cares! Their formation is collapsing we got to use this opportunity to escape said Nami,


Scene change

We lose 'em? Asks Ussop.

It appears so said Robin.

We might be safe at the moment, but we need to stop and restock at this island and leave before the Marines find us again said Kisho.

Marines sure have been dogging us a lot lately said Ussop.

Well, when you have 4 people on board with big bounties on their heads, you can't blame 'em for going all out said Zoro.

Luffy, you should move, there's a chance we could hit one of these shallow reefs and you could get thrown overboard said Nami.

Look it's a harbor said Chopper.

Where is it? Asks Luffy.

There! Right next to that lighthouse said Chopper.

A harbor means a town and a town means restaurants and that means food! Yahoo said Luffy.


Scene change

Oh, it's not a lighthouse at all, is it? Said Chopper.

Really? Sure it is tall, I wonder what it is? Said Ussop.

Looks like a tower of some kind said Kisho.

Who cares? Let's get some food said Luffy.

Alright wipe the drool from your face said Nami.

Man: you there! Halt.

Here on Ruluka, there's a requirement for all visitors who moor their ship at the harbor or even along the rocks you must first pay all of the requisite harbor dues said the guard.

What are harbor dues? Asks Chopper.

It's a tax we have to pay for docking our ship said Kisho.

But if we're going to do some trading in the city, why do we have to pay a tax just to dock here? Asks Nami.

Because it's your duty! Now pay up or you'll regret it said the guard.

Hey, don't talk to the lady like that said Sanji.

Or what? Said the guard.

Food here I come said Luffy.

Are you ok? asks Robin.

I'm fine never been better said Sanji.

Well in that case let's go said Nami.

I need to buy some blank charts to draw maps on said Nami.

Wonder if they have a weapon shop on this island said Kisho.

Maybe a tea shop too said Akane.

I'll come too said Chopper.


Scene change

Hey, did you find what you were looking for? asks Nami.

Sure did said Kisho.

I also stopped at a few other stores said Kisho.

By the way, Nami said Kisho.

There they are Lake! The ones I told you about said the guard.

You're the insolent folks who didn't pay their taxes at the harbor huh? said Lake.

Who the hell are you? asks Kisho.

Allow me to introduce myself, I'm the grandson of Mayor Wetton, Lake. Also, I'm the officer who sees to unpaid taxes here and I see you my red-haired fellow need to pay the tax for having deadly weapons in town. So, pay up or else said Lake.

I'm not sure what's going on here, but you're messing up the ladies' shopping trip said Sanji.

Back off, pal, or you're gonna get hurt said Kisho.

Lake charges and Sanji tries to kick them but is electrocuted.

Electricity huh? Man is it your unlucky day said Kisho.

I'll take care of this guy's said Kisho.

Let me give you a bigger taste of what my Electroshock suit can do said Lake.

Rolling Thunder said Lake.

Kisho turns into water and gets out of the way.

Where'd he go? said Lake.

Oh, that's right Kisho can turn into water just like Ace could into fire said Nami.

Over here said Kisho.

How'd you? You have Devil Fruit powers don't you? said Lake.

What gave it away? said Kisho.

Then you need the Devil Fruit power tax said Lake.

I don't think so said Kisho.

Rolling said Lake.

Jetstream said Kisho.

The attack causes the suit to shock Lake and the two men instead.

Let's go said Kisho.

Right said Sanji.

Just make sure you don't drop my shopping bags, ok? said Nami.

K said Sanji.

If they're so freaking important to you, why won't you just carry them yourself? asks Chopper.

Sanji won't let me said Nami.

Oh said Chopper.


Scene change

Hey said Sanji.

The Going Merry it's gone said Chopper.

But Zoro was on board what happened? asks Nami.

Those guys from earlier must have taken it and Zoro since we didn't pay their stupid taxes said Kisho.

Oh, this is just great said Nami.

That good-for-nothing mosshead probably slept through it all said Sanji.

Hey said Lake.

Geez, stop. Really said Nami.

This guy again? said Kisho.

He's persistent that's for sure said Sanji.

Oh, stop you're whining, and let's finish this said Lake. '

Lake falls over.

Lake sees a coin.

Are you the ones who threw that at me? asks Lake.

It wasn't us said Sanji.

Didn't he know that? he was watching us said Nami.

Tell now it was it you who did this? said Lake.

And what if we say it was? asks Kisho.

Lake picks up the coin.

You're just picking it up? said Kisho, Nami, and Sanji.

Alright then I've collected your taxes said Lake.

Now you've paid I formally welcome you to the town of Ruluka said Lake.

Huh? said the four.

Ape's Concert? Is that what you said? asks Kisho.

Yeah, Ape's Concert, that's right said Lake.

Some of our soldiers reported they saw your ship entering the Rainbow Mist said Lake.

There's no doubt about it said Lake.

According to what the Mayor said, there's all sorts of treasure piled up there said Lake.

Treasure? said Nami.

Here we go said Kisho.

People also say that Ape's Concert is a ship graveyard said Kisho.

Yeah, that's right, all the shipwrecks in there apparently have untouched cargo just lying around: Jewels, coins, and stuff said Lake.

The mayor wants the treasure, so he's got a scientist called Henzo researching a way to get into Ape's Concert said Lake.

And was the old science guy who made the suit for me said Lake.

Huh? it's a pretty slick weapon don't ya think? said Lake.

Sanji is it just me or does he talk a lot? asks Chopper.

We can't just stand still here said Nami.

We're going into that mist too so let's get a move on said Nami.

Yes sir, Nami said Sanji.

Oh, brother said Kisho.

But once we go inside there's no coming back out said Chopper.

This is no time to be scared Chopper the treasure is waiting for us said Nami.

I don't think so said a male voice.

No one goes into Ape's Concert without my permission said the male voice.

Grandpa said Lake.

You idiot said Wetton.

Did he say Grandpa? asks Nami.

How many times have I had to tell you Lake you're not to address me as Grandpa, do you understand that? said Wetton.

I'm to be called Mayor Wetton said Wetton.

Man: Mayor, it's the Tarielishin.

My dear old ship has returned at last said Wetton.

But Grandpa I don't understand why is the ship returning after all this time away? asks Lake.

Hey, I told you to call me Mayor didn't I said Wetton.

Yeah said Lake.

Look over there said Wetton.

50 years ago, my dear ship disappeared in the Rainbow Mist, and now that the ship has returned, it means the doorway to Ape's Concert has been opened again at last said Wetton.

So, basically, it's now or never if we're going to find a way to get the treasure from Ape's Concert, right? said Nami.

Yes, that's right said Wetton.

Wait! How you know about the treasure? said Wetton.

I forced your grandson to tell us said Kisho.

Lake! You Idiot! After all everything I said about the treasure being a secret said Wetton.

I'm so sorry, Grandpa... I mean Mayor, sir said Lake.

It must try one's patience, having such a dimwitted family said Nami.

You have no idea said, Wetton.

Hey, being sympathetic towards me won't help you any said Wetton.

However, you found out about it. Now that you know the secret of Ape's Concert, I can't afford to let you leave said Wetton.

You intend to silence us, is that it? said Sanji.

No, you're going to pay the "I found a secret" tax said Wetton.

No less than 10 million Berries for each of you said Wetton.

I have a better idea said Kisho.

Nami, Sanji duck said Kisho.

They get down and Kisho draws his swords.

Spin Slash said Kisho.

He spins in a circle, slashing Wetton's men as he goes.

Now tell us how to get into the Rainbow Mist or I'll use these swords for real said Kisho.

Ok, I'll tell you said Wetton.

In order to get to Rainbow Mist you have to take the Rainbow Tower said Wetton.

What's a Rainbow Tower? asks Sanji.

Is that tower in the harbor? asks Kisho.

Yes, its sole purpose is to link Ruluka with the Rainbow Mist said Wetton.

I see, so we can you use it to get to our crew said Nami.

Since you people know how it works you will operate for us and get into the Rainbow Mist said Kisho.

Lake, call Henzo and get him investigating said Wetton.

Right said Lake.

Get me a transponder Snail said Lake.

Remind me never to get on his bad side said Nami.

Nope said Sanji.

Uh uh said Chopper.


Scene change

Just calm down a sec will you said Luffy.

Quiet! You took Pukau hostage and forced him to tell you where our base was, didn't you? Said Rapanui.

I'll make you pay said Rapanui.

That's not very nice now, is it? Said Zoro.

Rapanui I'm not really a hostage said Pukau.

They just asked me to lead them here so I brought them, that's all it was really said Pukau.

Now they threaten you to make you say said Rapanui.

It's true these are not bad people I'm being serious said Pukau.

Look she's not mad, even when I do this said Pukau.

It's a lie! This a strategy to get us to let our guard down, that's all said Rapanui.

You misunderstand, we only wanted to find you to ask if there is a way to get out of Ape's Concert, nothing more said Robin.

Once you find out, then that's when you're going steal all the treasure from the shipwrecks, i know what you're doing here said Rapanui.

No Rapanui that's not it said Henzo.

I know these people and they would not do that said Henzo.

Can I believe anything that a grownup says? Of course, is what they're after said Rapanui.

This isn't going anywhere said Zoro.

Hey said Ussop.

Look Ussop's very special lunch is now ready for eating said Ussop.

Whoo-hoo lunch time said Luffy.

Would you guys like some too? Asks Ussop.

Oh yeah said Pukau.

I can't promise if it gonna taste good said Zoro.

Don't listen to him, he's stupid said Ussop.

Wow, this is delicious! Did you make all this by yourself? Said Pukau.

Yep, there's nothing I can't do said Ussop.

Hey Luffy slow down, those aren't all for you said Ussop.

They aren't as good as Sanji's but they're still yummy said Luffy.

There are some children over there who look like they may want some food too said Robin.

You guys! Come down too said Ussop.

These are amazing said Pukau.

Oh really? Said Akibi.

Oh yeah said Rongo.

Don't take it, they're tricking you said Rapanui.

Hey whatever happened to the pride of the Pumpkin Pirate, huh? Said Rapanui.

Rapanui! Pride's not going to fill their stomachs said Henzo.

What? You guys really came from the East Blue! seriously Said Isoka.

Yeah sure did said Zoro.

Which means you must have gone past Reverse Mountain on the way said Akibi.

You guys must be real brave said Rongo.

Oh yeah, you better believe it! We've had more adventures than you can possibly count said Ussop.

We've fought giants and goldfish that swallow whole islands and we saved a country from a secret crime organization said Ussop.

Wow, really? Said Akibi.

How cool said Rongo.

And the only reason we were able to come out of all death-defying situations with our lives was my bravery and wisdom and because of these great attributes, I am known as Captain Ussop said Ussop.

Zoro hits Ussop on the head.

What's that for?! Said Ussop.

We're trying to eat here, say it don't spray it said Zoro.

Then they hear glass break.

Rapanui, please forgive me said Henzo.

I'm so ashamed of myself, I've spent the last 50 years of my life doing research trying to find a way to get you all out of the Rainbow Mist and I finally found a way to get back inside but because of my carelessness, we can't get out said Henzo.

I'm a failure as a pirate professor! I'm ashamed but I must ask you, please! If you know a way, out tell me! We must find a way back to Ruluka! Then once we're out of here we can return home together said Henzo.

No there's no way to get out of here and even if there was, I still wouldn't tell any of you said Rapanui.

I don't trust any of you at all said Rapanui.

It's not like you've given me a real reason too said Rapanui.

And you call yourselves friends? Said Ussop.

What's that? Said Rapanui.

You can forget about the rest of us for a second, but the professor here is your friend, right? I mean if you can't trust your friends then who can you trust exactly? Said Ussop.

You can just stay out of this said Rapanui.

Do you really expect me to believe this ridiculous story? That 50 years has suddenly gone by? Said Rapanui.

Yes, I do said Ussop.

Because it doesn't matter how different he looks or how much time has passed said Ussop.

He once marched under the same flag as you so he's still one of your friends you got that? Said Ussop.

While the color of the flag may fade true friendship is forever you know?! Said Ussop.

A transponder snail goes off.

Oh wait that's me said Henzo.

Yes yes I'm coming said Henzo.

Luffy takes the snail.

Hey said Henzo.

Yep, hi hello said Luffy.

What good does it do for you to answer? Said Zoro.

Well, well, Professor Henzo said Flip.

Huh? Who is this anyway? Asks Luffy.


Scene change

What? Wait a second who are you? Asks Flip.

Hey, Luffy said Sanji.

Where the heck did you go? Asks Chopper.

You guys just went and ran off with the ship?! You put the rest of us in a kind of sticky situation you know said Nami.


Scene change

Huh? It's Nami said Luffy.

So you're connected to Nami and the others? Said Ussop.

Nami? Said Isoka.

Hold on, if we can talk to her then that must mean said Robin.

Is this the outside world? Said Henzo.


Scene change

Flip! Flip respond are you there? Said Henzo

Yes, Flip here said Flip.

Professor Henzo what's your location now? Asks Flip.

I'm currently inside the Rainbow Mist said Henzo.


Scene change

At the moment I'm afraid we're unable to escape it do you think perhaps you could come to rescue us? Said Henzo.

You mean someone's coming? Said Pukau.

We can go back to Ruluka now? Really? Wow said Rongo.

You hear that? Isn't that great? Said Isoka.

We don't have any time to waste, someone needs to equip the Safety Search Gear I invented to and come and get us from inside the mist and tell Wetton he'll also need to doublecheck of all the said Henzo.

What are you doing? Said Henzo.

That name you just said, Wetton, he's the exact same man who was responsible for burning down Ruluka isn't that right Henzo said Rapanui.

I had to team up with that man, it was the only way I could figure out how to save you all said Henzo.

It's all clear to me now you aren't the Henzo that we knew after all said Rapanui.

Admit it, if you were a true Pumpkin Pirate as you say, then you would have never become one of Wetton's pawns in a million years! Never said Rapanui.

Rapanui said Henzo.

Don't you dare say my name you lousy traitor said Rapanui.

Time skip

Well, well, so those guys really did end up in that weird mist after all said Sanji.

Yeah, but they're not able to get back out of the mist said Kisho.

What should we do? asks Chopper.

Isn't obvious we go inside the mist said Nami.

Just a minute I told you you're not allowed to go into Ape's Concert without obtaining my permission said Wetton.

We're pirates so we don't take orders from the likes of you, Wetton said Kisho.

What'd you say? said Wetton.

Hey there, where's the safety gear the professor was talking about? asks Nami.

Here it is said Lake.

Thank you said Nami.

The four pirates run.


Scene change

Nice work Nami said Kisho.

Thank you said Nami.

And here I was hoping they'd let us run peacefully off into the sunset said Sanji.

Get going guys said Chopper.

Sure, thing said Nami.

Leave Luffy and the others to us said Kisho.

We'll take care of it and the treasure said Nami.

Nami said Sanji.

Kisho said Chopper.

Nami rows the boat away.

Nami stop the boat said Kisho.

Are you crazy!? That thing will eat us whole said Nami.

Just trust me said Kisho.

Nami stops the boat.

He fires an attack the Sea King to get its attention.

Kisho, what are you doing? said Nami.

Trust me said Kisho.

Kisho looks up at the Sea King and it stares back at him.

Get lost said Kisho.

The Sea king Leaves.

Incredible said Sanji.

Yeah said Chopper.

You with the glasses tell us about the safety gear and how to use it said Kisho.

It's something Professor Henzo I'll bet he specially designed it for this kind of situation said, Flip.

Professor Henzo I have no idea who you are, but whatever is inside, it better be worth said Nami.

It's a lifeline? said Nami.

Nami one end of the lifeline to your Clima-Tact said Kisho.

Why? asks Nami.

He whispers his plan to her.

Oh, I got ya said Nami.

Chopper catch said Kisho.

What? I can't catch that thing said Chopper.

Wow, I caught it! Alright said Chopper.

Okay, we're headed into the mist when I give you the signal, I want you to pull the rope back in said Kisho.

You got it! Good Luck, guys said Chopper.


Scene change

Nami we're on a rescue mission not a treasure hunting trip said Kisho.

I know but we can trade this stuff in and boost our funds back up said Nami.

I guess that's true said Kisho.

Nami, I see the Going Merry said Kisho.

Really? said Nami

Yup, there's no mistaking that figurehead said Kisho.

Hey ahoy there said Kisho.

Hey, you guys said Nami.

Kisho said Ussop.

Oh, Nami, hi said Zoro.

what do you mean "Oh, Nami"? Could you sound less excited? said Nami.

And after we came all the way here to rescue you! How rude said Nami.

Oh yeah you do seem terribly broken up about it said Ussop.

Don't mind me said Nami.

Hey uh, who are all these children anyway? And where did Luffy run off to this time? asks Nami.

You all look kind of upset what happened? asks Kisho.

Well, he went beyond the mist said Ussop.

Huh? said Kisho and Nami.

Like I said, they're not here anymore and we can't find them either said Ussop.

What's this Jibber-Jabber? asks Nami.

Zoro? said Kisho.

Exactly what he said, You guys weren't there so there's no real way to explain it to you, but they've gone beyond the mist said Zoro.

Okay we'll withdraw said Nami.

Are you crazy? said Kisho and Zoro.

Have you forgotten about Luffy? said Ussop.

I don't know what happened but what are the chances that he's dead? said Nami.

He can handle it, just leave him be said Nami.

Come on we're heading back said Nami.

So, you've found a way for us to escape from here? asks Robin.

Kind of, yeah said Nami.

It's a rope? aww, come on said Ussop.

So, you're the ones who came from Ruluka said a male voice.

Ian said Isoka.

And he's who? asks Zoro.

He's a Wetton crony said Akibi.

One of Wetton's men huh? said Kisho.

What's he doing here? asks Ussop.

Why don't you hand over that rope to me girly said Ian.

But why? If you're looking for a way to get yourself out of the Rainbow Mist, then you can just come with us said Nami.

Don't you care what happens to this little boy? asks Ian.

Let go of the boy now said Kisho.

Why should I? asks Ian.

Kisho disappears and reappear behind Ian holding his sword to his throat.

Because if you don't, I'll slit your throat said Kisho.

How is Kisho over there when he's over here? Ussop.

Then the Kisho standing over by the Straw Hats turns into water.

What the? said Nami.

Ok yeah, that's a good reason said Ian.

Ian puts the boy down.

Thanks mister said the boy.

No problem kid said Kisho.

Now tell me why do you want the Lifeline? asks Kisho.

I only want to get out of the mist! That's all said Ian.

I've been putting up with those brats for God knows how long! They even threw in the brig said Ian.

Well, if you're under Wetton's command I don't blame them said Kisho.

Please don't kill me said Ian.

Kisho how were you into two places at once? asks Ussop.

Oh that? it was my water form, it's a clone made of water said Kisho.

That's a handy move to have said Nami.

I'll say it is said Ussop.

Time skip

Well? said Akibi

It's no use said Henzo.

When we were able to get a signal from the outside and make contact, it must have been temporary said Kisho.

Exactly said Henzo.

Of all the bad luck said Robin.

To have a piece of jewelry with a Sea Prism Stone in it among all the treasure on that boat said Robin.

What is that thing? asks Isoka.

It's a type of Sea crystal it has the power to cancel out anyone's Devil Fruit ability said Kisho.

What's the point of having so much beautiful treasure if we can't even outside of this stupid mist with us? said Nami.

You're a Navigator, aren't you? Can't you do something about it? asks Ussop.

Nope, this obscured area of the sea is a first for me said Nami.

We're out of options then said Zoro.

Not really, I guarantee they'll be coming here said Henzo.

What for? asks Ussop.

Wetton's ultimate goal has always been to get all the treasure out of Ape's Concert for himself and now that his man, Ian has returned alive, He'll put together a large force and charge into the mist very soon said Henzo.

You've got to be kidding me! Then we'll fight! I'm not heading over this treasure to anyone said Nami.

Oh, boy said Ussop.

Here we go said Kisho.

I wish Rapanui was back here with us said Rongo.

Time skip

The water starts to get violent.

What the hell is that? asks Zoro.

It's the Rainbow Tower said Henzo.

You mean that thing in the harbor? said Kisho.

So, Wetton you've finally come said Henzo.

Get going! Faster now said Wetton.

Take every last bit of it said Wetton.

All of Ape's Concert treasure said Wetton.

Wetton's men start to board the Going Merry.

The children attack the men.

What now? said Zoro.

Be careful said Ussop.

Ape's Concert is still the territory of the Pumpkin Pirates, until Rapanui returns its our job to defend it said Akibi.

Professor said, Robin.

I'm one of the Pumpkin Pirates too, I'll go defend this place right alongside you said Henzo.

Here let me help you with that said Ussop.

Yeah, me too said Kisho.

Henzo said, Robin.

It's Lake said Kisho.

You guys actually need help fighting a bunch of brats like this? said Lake.

What is up with this guy? asks Ussop.

He's an odd one said Robin.

You have no idea said Kisho.

You guys' just hand over the treasure nice and easy or I'll have to teach you a lesson with my electroshock suit said Lake.

Leave this guy to me I'll take care of him said Kisho.

Hey, you kids turn the raft over said Kisho.

Come on guys let do this said Henzo.

Yeah said Isoka.

Let's do it said Pukau.

Ready on three said Akibi.

One... two... three said Isoka.

They flip the raft over.

Kisho hops down into it.

You guys get on the water's about to get ruff said Kisho.

Let's do as he says said Henzo.

They all get into the raft.

You again? I'm gonna get you this time! Devil Fruit powers or no Devil Fruit powers said Lake.

In case you haven't noticed you're surrounded by water said Kisho.

You guys hold on tight said Kisho.

What are you gonna do? asks Rongo.

Just watch said Kisho.

Then they hear a familiar voice.

Who's that guy? asks Lake.

It's Luffy said Kisho.

and Rapanui said Henzo.

Then hear Wetton insult Pirates.

Oh, bad choice of words said Kisho.

He's in for it now said Kisho.

As if that skinny punk could beat my Grandpa said Lake.

Then they witness Luffy toss Wetton suit and all.

Impossible said Lake.

I should mention our Captain has Devil Fruit powers too said Kisho.

What? said Lake.

Professor you and the kids get on board the Going Merry said Kisho.

What are you gonna do? asks Henzo.

Don't worry about me, just get those kids to safety said Kisho.


Scene change

What do you think Kisho's gonna do Zoro? Asks Ussop.

Well, we're surrounded by water and Kisho ate the Water-Water Fruit said Zoro

So, it stands to reason that's gonna do some with it said Robin.

Wait did he eat a Logia type? asks Henzo.

Yes, he did said Robin.

But water conducts electricity said Henzo.

Don't worry Kisho knows what he's doing said Nami.

Yeah, he beat one the Seven Warlords of the Sea, after all said Zoro.

What!? Incredible said Henzo.

Who are these Warlord Guys? asks Akibi.

That's a long but amazing story said Ussop.


Scene change

I'll get you this time said Lake.

Rolling thunder said Lake.

Hey, what's going on here? asks Lake.

That little suit he's so proud of doesn't do much good after the plugs been pulled said Robin.

Dammit! How did this happen? said Lake.

Plug it back in! No fair you jerk! That wasn't fair said Lake.

Tidal Wave said Kisho.

The blast of water causes Lake to go overboard.

Hey! Somebody help me! I'm drowning.

Time Skip

Dammit, what the hell is going on now? Said Zoro.

He abandoned us said Ian.

Wetton, damn you! No real pirate captain would do that no way said Ian.

Luffy said Nami.

Rapanui said Pukau.

It's Rapanui said Rongo.

He came back to us said Akibi.

Thank goodness Rapanui said Isoka.

I'm sick of this Mayor, how big a pain can one guy be? Asks Zoro.

Hovercraft said Kisho.

Luffy and Rapanui are encased in a bubble and float over to the Going Merry.

This isn't good said Henzo.

What's that? Said Henzo.

It can't be said Henzo.

Professor? Said Robin. at all, Ape's Concert maintains only a very delicate balance, to begin with, if you set off an explosion like that one in a place like this there's no telling what might happen next said Henzo.

Aah! Said Henzo.

What is that? Asks Zoro.

The warping of space and time is expanding quickly at this rate we'll get caught up in it and we'll all die said Henzo.

What? Said Ussop.

Alright we have to get out of here said Kisho.

Yeah, but how do we do that? Asks Nami.

The author of this book once visited Ape's Concert he must talk about the way out somewhere in here said Robin.

She gasps.

What's wrong? Asks Ussop.

It must be in the next volume though said Robin.

You have it right? Asks Ussop.

She shakes her head no.

Oh crap said Ussop.


Scene change

What now? Asks Luffy.

Over there! Said Rapanui

That light over there it's the setting sun said Rapanui.

The sun? Said Ussop.

That's right the light of the sun is shining through a crack in space, Luffy and I followed that light earlier and we ended up outside said Rapanui.

You did? Said Ussop.

We need to hurry that light could be disappearing at any time now said Henzo.

Unfurl the sails and everyone row the oars as hard as you can! Said Nami.

Scene change

Why don't you guys come give us a hand too, we're trying to get out of here now said Zoro.

Man: okay.

Scene change

Nami blows a whistle, and they start rowing. But they're going in circles.

What are you doing? Row right okay? Said Kisho.

We are rowing right said Lake.

Then the oars break.

Look you guys th light is starting to disappear said Ussop.

So this is how it ends said Henzo.

You guys get off and push us from behind said Zoro.

You're crazy said Flip.

If you all kick your feet really hard it might work said Luffy.

No way said Ian, Lake, and the guards.

What we really need is a tailwind to blow us said Nami.

So, all we need is some wind? Said Rapanui.

Huh? Said Ussop.

He jumps overboard.

Hold on what are you planning? Said Nami.

I'm gonna blow up our ship said Rapanui.

It was originally a Marine ship after all so it's fully loaded with explosives if I light those the explosion should give a pretty good tailwind said Rapanui.

You can't said Akibi.

Wait Rapanui, don't do it if you blow up the ship then what's going to happen to you? Said Henzo.

Rapanui said Rongo.

Hey! What are you doing? come back here said Ussop.

We can't do that, we're Pumpkin Pirates too said Pukau.

Besides we swore we would live and died together said Akibi.

They're going said Ussop.

Rapanui is planning on blowing up the ship because he wants to save us all, don't let his sacrifice be for nothing! Said Henzo.

So, you all want to die? Said Henzo.

No, we aren't going to die said Isoka.

Henzo, I promise you that we're going to come back said Isoka.

Whatever happens, we're going to come back to Ruluka somehow said Isoka.

Isoka said Henzo.

An explosion goes off and the Going Merry ends up outside the mist.

Oh look at it, my precious ship said Ussop.

Hey Sanji long time no see said Luffy.

Nami dear said Sanji.

She hits him on the head.

I'm so annoyed I could scream said Nami.

But why Nami dear? Asks Sanji.

All the treasure she had on deck got blown away and she isn't taking it very well so I wouldn't get too close to her right now if I were you whispers Ussop.

Alright, Pirates that's far enough said a Marine.

Marines said Sanji.

And it's the same ones who were chasing us said Ussop.

Please help us, sir! These people are terrible criminals they've stolen everything at that our town's great Mayor owns said Flip.

Why you said Kisho.

Marine: Let's see! This is the ring of Princess Alicia it was stolen by pirates years ago and here it is sitting on your finger now.

Marine: why do you have this?

Well, you see uh said Flip.

You didn't steal it now, did you? Asks the marine.

No of course not said Flip.

This was a treasure that was resting inside Ape Concert said Flip.

Yes, yes he's right! We just pulled it out of a shipwreck that's all said Lake.

I see so what you're saying is that this ring here doesn't belong to anyone said the Marine.

What? Said both.

Major, we've discovered a large pile of treasure that we believe was carried out of there said a female Marine.

Well then the Marines will be confiscating all of it said the Major.

I won't let you! You better not so much as lay a finger on my treasure, it's mine! All of it mine said Wetton.

Any treasure that is found without an official owner is the property of the World Government and if obtained illegally will be considered an act of piracy said the Major.

Fine with me, I'm really a pirate anyway said Wetton.

Anything I want can just take by force said Wetton.

Look out said Luffy and Ussop.

Let's consider that your confession shall we? If that's ok with you pirate captain Wetton said the major.

Wait, what? Said Wetton.

No. no it can't be! Rapanui said Henzo.

No way! Said Luffy and Ussop.

I promised we'd come back to Ruluka didn't I? Said the female Marine.

Isoka said Henzo.

Okay, take Wetton's gang into custody said Rapanui.

You're alive and you're a lot older! How'd that happen? Said Ussop.

When the explosion happened we were blown into the outside world just like all of you were except there was one little difference, we ended up in the world of 50 years ago said Rapanui.

I see the Rainbow Mist must have warped the access of time as well as space said Robin.

Then why didn't you come here sooner? Asks Henzo.

We knew we needed to figure out a way to defeat and punish Wetton said Rapanui.

I thought that we'd need help though so we all decided to enlist with the Marines to use their power. But earning a high enough rank to the authority to come here at will took more time than I suspected said Rapanui.

It makes sense now said Henzo.

I may be wearing the uniform of the Marines but in my heart, I am still a Pumpkin Pirate to the death said Rapanui.

Henzo I'm still your friend too forever under the same flag said Rapanui.

Rapanui said Henzo.

Also, I may have forgotten to mention this, Straw Hats, but you're all under arrest said Rapanui,

What? Said all.

You're heartless said Ussop.

You still owe me for feeding you that time you jerk, remember? Said Ussop.

As a Marine I'm charged with upholding justice I can't just let a pirate with a bounty on their head get away said Rapanui.

However! it can't be! Right now, we have got to take Wetton and his crew back to Marine Headquarters but if we do that the Straw Hats Pirates will be able to slip away! They are just too much for us to handle now! What are we going to do? Said Rapanui.

I know, request assistance from the Marine Base at once! But no they won't arrive until tomorrow or the next at the earliest that will give the pirates plenty of time to escape said Rapanui.

Aw! Dammit said Rapanui.

I guess there's nothing I can do now said Rapanui.

Very convincing, isn't he? Said all.


Scene change

You know what? That place was pretty awesome, wasn't it? Said Lucy.

Uh I think I've had enough of that ship graveyard said Nami.

Well it's not like I wanna live there but it would be nice to visit said Lucy.

I can't believe you actually enjoyed that said Chopper.

Is that rain? Asks Zoro.

No way this ain't rain said Sanji.

that's interesting it looks like a.. oh said Sanji.
