The Red Force was docked. The red hair pirates were activating themselves on the dock as their captain walked out of his chambers and looked around, whistling. He patted one of his crewmate's shoulders. This time, it was Limejuice.

"Where are we, anyway?" the Yonko wondered.

"It's Skull island. It's filled to the brim with pirates and other criminals. The only rule that applies is no fighting."

"How do you know that Limejuice?" asked Shanks.

"I was born in one of the surroundings island," explained the blonde. "Adults kept telling us to never come near this island. Guess they never expected any of us to become pirates," he concluded, smirking,ironically nostalgic. "Its actually a peaceful place. The locals are nice and all..."

Shanks hummed thoughtfully for a split secon. "I'm sure they have nice taverns. Is the beer any good, here?"

"Captain," Limejuice started, "when is booze not good."

Said captain hummed and nodded. "It's decided then...tonight we're going OUT!"

So they did. The men entered the site of an animated exterior tavern blended in multicolour lights. A melodious voice occupied the atmosphere, gaining everyone's attention ; yours. Unbeknownst to you though, the eyes of a certain man didn't quit your silhouette as you turned and elegantly moved at the rhythm. However tonight was more complicated. That damn skirt really was too tight. You should have listened to your sister. The lights were right on you. The night was surprisingly hot. Why?

There once was a ship that put to sea
The name of the ship was the Billy of Tea
The winds blew up, her bow dipped down
Oh blow, my bully boys, blow (huh)
Soon may the Wellerman come
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
One day, when the tonguing is done
We'll take our leave and go
She'd not been two weeks from shore
When down on her a right whale bore
The captain called all hands and swore
He'd take that whale in tow (huh)
Soon may the Wellerman come
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
One day, when the tonguing is done
We'll take our leave and go
Da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
Before the boat had hit the water
The whale's tail came up and caught her
All hands to the side, harpooned and fought her
When she dived down low (huh)
Soon may the Wellerman come
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
One day, when the tonguing is done
We'll take our leave and go
No line was cut, no whale was freed
The captain's mind was not of greed
And he belonged to the Whaleman's creed
She took that ship in tow (huh)
Soon may the Wellerman come
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
One day, when the tonguing is done
We'll take our leave and go
Da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
For forty days or even more
The line went slack then tight once more
All boats were lost, there were only four
But still that whale did go (huh)
Soon may the Wellerman come
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
One day, when the tonguing is done
We'll take our leave and go

Your body tickled in a way, something was off. You turned toward the direction this feeling was coming from when you saw the recognizable among any others Red hair Shanks. "Oh, everyone we have important guests! Make it loud for the red hair pirates!" Everyone turned around and applauded the Yonko as if it was a mere usual daily encounter. "Enjoy your stay." You added when things got quieter before finishing the song.

As far as I've heard, the fight's still on
The line's not cut, and the whale's not gone
The Wellerman makes his regular call
To encourage the captain, crew and all (huh)
Soon may the Wellerman come
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
One day, when the tonguing is done
We'll take our leave and go
Soon may the Wellerman come
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
One day, when the tonguing is done
We'll take our leave and go

"Come on, another one!" called the crowd of drunk men.

"As much as I love my job, there's no way I'm doing extra hours. I will punch out and take a drink." It wasn't funny but the drunken state of the guests might have played a big part in their laughter. You smiled at those that attempted to poorly start a conversation with you as you reached the bar.

"It was nice as always (y/n)," the barmaid said as she gave you your usual drink. It's been that you've been performing here that she knew exactly what to prepare you. You no longer needed to ask. She really was a lovely woman.

"Thanks, Phoebe."

"I agree." a masculine voice said. You turned around to thank the stranger when you saw it was no one else but the Shanks himself. You jolted back, surprised. "You scared me."

He laughed. "How?"

"It's not everyday that you bump into a yonko at a bar, even here."

He laughed silently, smiled. "I'm afraid I didn't catch your name."

" (y/n) (l/n)."

"Allow me to offer you a drink, (y/n)." he said as he pointed at your glass.

You smiled. "Sure."

Did any of you manage to watch the entirety of the new movie? I could only watch a few clips as the movie hasn't been officially released in my country. If you did can one of you explain why Shanks had to leave Uta behind? I haven't finished the Wano Arc yet but I do know there is some sort of a filler episode where Uta appears. Do they explain it in that episode? I want to know so bad you guys...Like I know he did it to protect her but like from what?
