The sun rose on Grand Jipang after the festival to celebrate the liberation from the Imperial Dragons. At the Sakura Tree, Ash, Shirahoshi, Ocarrot and Rebecca were sleeping and naked after they had their passionate fun with each other as Franky's fireworks exploded. As the sun struck everyone, those by the Sakura Tree started to wake up, their bodies glistening from sweat. Ash's eyes open, finding Shirahoshi's breasts and stiffed nipple. He gulped, realizing that he and the girls made love. Elsewhere, Vivi had Pikachu for the night. As she woke, her sudden move alerted Pikachu to wake up. ("Is it morning already?") he groaned. Vivi stroked Pikachu's back to greet him.
"Good morning, Pikachu," she greeted. Pikachu smiled to the welcome. At the Sakura Tree, Shirahoshi reached over and kissed Ash on the lips. The princess, the former princess and the Rabbit Mink came to Ash to embrace. It was the greeting of the new day, one day after the festival, many days after the blitzkrieg on the rogue castle.
Farewell! Grand Jipang Empties!
Ash and his girls came down from the Sakura Tree and reached Cobra's castle where Pikachu reunited with the Great Sage. Ash and the girls were clothed as they returned to society. "Did you have a nice time with the princess?" he asked.
("We sure did!") squeaked Pikachu.
"He behaved rather well," Vivi smiled. "I thought he'd jump from the exploding fireworks, but he was more in awe at them rather than scared." The other girls laughed to the claim.
"So, is this a gathering before the departures?" voiced Usopp. Everyone turned to Luffy, Usopp and Franky.
"Boss!" greeted Vivi. "I never knew you did mornings."
"I don't," Luffy confirmed. "Franky had asked me to come by to find Ash." His name called, Ash turned to Franky.
"What's up?" he asked.
"I did fix up yours and Robin's flat," Franky offered. "There's some new stuff that you'll like." Ash and Pikachu sighed, not expecting Franky to give new items to them and Robin.
"You're spoiling us, Franky," he huffed.
"But what can you expect?" laughed Luffy as he slapped his shoulder. "After all, the kingdoms have deemed you a hero. I know I couldn't fill that role properly."
"Being named a hero and being heroic are different, but not by much," Usopp corrected.
"Indeed," Rebecca agreed. "Ash is a hero because of what he did to save us. We could say the same thing about you, Boss, Zoro…"
"Okay, I see what you mean," Luffy shrugged. "It's a surprise that I'm not considered a hero as often." Laughs came before they all stepped inside the castle. Vivi sat beside Cobra as they viewed Ash and the girls. Robin also joined.
"Last night was a success as we managed to have a remarkable festival," Cobra addressed. "I do hope that we can make it as annual as possible… and express additional kingdoms to join." Everyone else, including the leaders of their kingdoms, agreed.
"I would want to expand some of the activities for more children to enjoy," Momonosuke offered.
"Agreed," Neptune sided. "Not to mention more food for everyone to try -jamon."
"Then, it's agreed," Cobra acknowledged. "Next year, this will bring all of the people, even from kingdoms across the water. As for this year, it is time we call this organization dismissed until next year." Everyone agreed and bowed. The dwarves gathered with Riku, Kyros and Viola. Ash held Mansherry and Leo in his palms.
"Our time may have been short, but we can't say we didn't have a good time," Leo addressed. Ash and Pikachu on his shoulder nodded to the praise.
"We do hope that you make it back to your kingdom safely," Ash wished.
"And while it wouldn't have worked out for us," Mansherry voiced. "I would want to give you one last bit of love." She jumped onto Pikachu's back before leaping at Ash's cheek, kissing him. Ash allowed Mansherry and Leo down to join the rest of the dwarves. Momonosuke was next to come to Ash and Pikachu as Robin, Onami, Omao and Robin stood back.
"Grand Jipang will be safe after what we've all been through," Momonosuke said. "Hiyori and I couldn't be happier to know of this kingdom's greatest protectors." Hiyori, tears flowing down her face, hugged Ash.
"I wish I could keep you around!" she cried. "Thank you! Oh, thank you for everything!" She gave Ash and Pikachu a kiss to the cheeks. Pikachu shrilled from the kiss. Viola stood next with Kyros, Rebecca and Riku standing back.
"Ash, I still wish to have you as a child," she admitted. "Even then, we're still proud of you for all that you've done, especially for my niece." She hugged Ash and kissed Pikachu on the nose.
"If only he wasn't claimed, right?" guessed Riku. Viola kissed Ash on the forehead. Ash blushed. Rebecca was next.
"Ash…" she started. "There's… not a word that could capitulate my emotions after last night… or during our stay. I hope at some point, you and your mother visit us, and we can organize our upcoming wedding…"
"It would be something to explore," Ash pondered. "I'm not one who likes to stay in one place for long. It might come soon." Rebecca smiled as she hugged and kissed Ash. Viola giggled to the kiss.
"I hope it's real soon," Rebecca wished. They stepped away as Riku held Mansherry and Leo. They began to depart as the mermaids came to Ash and Pikachu.
"Ash, it's a wonder how you were able to survive and recover from all that you have been through -jamon," Neptune voiced as he saw the mermaids surround him. "There's a little bit of a secret that I feel the need to tell you." Ash and Pikachu were curious.
"And what's that?" asked Ash.
"The moment you kissed a mermaid- less my daughter- you inherited a skill that allows you to breathe underwater." Gasps came from Ash and Pikachu.
"Wait, I kissed Shirahoshi, and now I can go underwater as long as I want!?"
"I know, quite the present, don't you think- jamon?" A mermaid picked up Pikachu.
"And since you're a part of Ash," she offered. "Here's your kiss." She gave Ash a kiss to the lips, and it was deep. After the kiss, Pikachu looked passed out. "Now, for the Summoner… Here you go!" The mermaids surrounded Ash before they tackled and kissed Ash on the face repeatedly. After half of a minute, Ash's face was painted with lipstick and saliva.
"So, this is a mermaid's love," he mumbled. He recovered as Shirahoshi hugged Ash, tears raining down her face.
"I don't want to let you go!" she cried. "I fell for someone who's my type! Now, I can't bear to leave you!" Ash hugged Shirahoshi back.
"We'll be together again," he promised. "For good soon." They shared one last kiss, holding their lips together for a long time. After they parted, Ash and Pikachu returned to Robin as the rest departed from Grand Jipang. Ash placed a hand on his chest. Robin and Ocarrot placed a hand each on Ash, Robin's on his free shoulder and Ocarrot's on his head.
"They're your support, now," Robin assured.
"And youteia can be with me until we move on," Ocarrot added. Ash smiled, knowing they'll be together again.
"Yeah…" he sighed. They returned back to Grand Jipang. The rest broke away from Robin's family as they walked back to their flat.
"By the way, what were you doing with those girls by the Sakura tree?" she asked. Ash gawked at Robin's discovery. Pikachu, on Robin's shoulder, looked on rather confused.
'Don't mention that you had sex with them!' he thought. 'Don't mention that!' The silence made Robin suspicious.
"Ash?" she asked again.
"They all confessed and that they believe I could run a kingdom," he lied. "I'm happy enough with Shirahoshi, but Rebecca and Ocarrot are just icings on the cake."
"I see… The thing is, if that's what happened, why didn't you come home?"
"Shirahoshi wanted to have all three of us snuggle together and we fell asleep at that point as the fireworks ended."
"That's cute! I think you'll make a fine husband." Hearing footsteps, Pikachu turned to see Usopp coming.
("Usopp's coming!") he called. Hearing Pikachu, Ash and Robin turned to Usopp.
"Finally!" he gasped. Ash and Robin wondered about the visit. Usopp stopped and held himself up with a hand on one of his knees. The other was carrying a scroll.
"Usopp, what's going on?" she asked. After catching his breath, Usopp offered the scroll.
"It's from Sensei Yamamoto," he briefed. Ash took the scroll before unrolling it.
"What does it say?" asked Robin.
MY PUPIL,
I HAVE HEARD THE NEWS OF YOUR ACCOMPLISHMENTS FROM OTHER STUDENTS WHO WATCHED YOU PERFORM. THE ELIMINATION OF THE IMPERIAL DRAGONS HAS SHOWN THAT YOUR SKILLS THAT YOU HAVE INHERITED FROM YOUR LATE PARENTS SAVED YOU. IT IS NOT THAT I KNEW OF WHAT YOU HELD BUT THE FEELING THAT YOU'D UNLOCK THE POTENTIAL TO SURPASS MYSELF. NOW, I BESTOW UPON YOU AS THE MASTER SUMMONER, THE LONE FIGURE. WHO KNOWS, YOU MAY UNVEIL A NEW PUPIL TO TRAIN BEFORE MY TIME ON THIS LAND PASSES THAT I WOULD TRAIN. STILL, I AM PROUD OF THE WORK YOU HAVE DONE.
SENSEI YAMAMOTO.
Ash smiled, a new title among himself. "Master Summoner…" he repeated.
"That is great to hear," Usopp awed. Ash rolled the scroll back up.
"I'll have a letter to give to Sensei by tomorrow," he planned.
"To accept the new title?" guessed Robin.
"No, just to thank him for helping me after my parents died protecting," Ash corrected.
"I'm sure he'd be happy about it," Usopp smiled. After that, Robin, Ash and Pikachu returned to their flat which they saw a new roof over themselves, along with a new table that had a skirt cloth around the sides.
"How do you like the new kotatsu?" asked Robin.
"I heard of these before," Ash awed. "Onami told me that she wants one to simply snuggle inside."
"If it's her size…" They giggled as they viewed new items like new cooking ware. That night, Ash and Pikachu soaked in the tub out back.
"Part of me wishes that Shirahoshi stayed," Ash admitted. "I mean, don't get me wrong… Rebecca and Ocarrot… It feels like I'm starting a concubine with them… and Sanji wished it before. I don't want to say he's got luck worse than those Dragons… but at least he's still breathing."
("Don't think too much,") Pikachu squeaked. ("Just enjoy it.") Ash smiled and nodded.
"I should," he agreed as he leaned back, only bouncing on Onami's breasts.
"I know your little secret, Ash," she teased. Ash's face became pale as he turned to Onami.
"You- You do?" he gulped.
"Yep, but I'm not telling your mom," Onami warned as Robin started to come out.
"Not telling me what?" she urged. Ash felt cornered before Onami hugged him to her body.
"It's a sibling thing," she dismissed, causing Ash to blink.
"Sibling?" he repeated. "What are you talking about?"
"See, I had gone to Princess Vivi and asked if I can adopt you as well," Onami briefed. Ash and Pikachu looked confused.
"I don't know if I want a second- Oh, you mean a big sister?"
"Yep… and this is your reward…" She held Ash's head to her breasts as Ash started to realize the purpose.
'You know, a sibling doesn't sound so bad.' Suddenly, Onami gave Ash a kiss to his lips, tasting his tongue as she hugged him while Robin entered the bath. 'Okay, is she serious about me being a little brother to her? If so, siblings shouldn't kiss, even if she's not really a sister by blood!' When Onami released Ash, his eyes were swirls as he flopped onto Robin's large breasts.
"I guess it's my turn with you," she cooed as she held Ash in her bosom. Pikachu cackled at the sight of Ash being motherly and sisterly loved.
"Don't think you're off the hook, Pikachu," Onami sneered. Pikachu gasped before Onami plucked him and kissed the mouse, wrapping her tongue with his. Pikachu's body became fiery red before steam billowed from his ears. He passed out from the kiss before Onami hugged him. Ash recovered to seeing his partner be loved.
'If this is what it's like being home,' he thought. Grand Jipang said goodbye to those visiting, but the kingdom welcomed the young man, now a Master Summoner.
TO BE CONCLUDED…
