"Straw Hat!!!!!!" roared a voice at the bottom of the staircase you took to get on Level 3.
It was Magellan, and he was already on your tail with his hydra made of poison. Some of the prisoners who were at the far back were unfortunately caught by it, and fell under the symptoms. When your group reached the desert of Level 3, you looked over your shoulder for a moment, and your eyes widened at the sight of the Warden striding behind you.
"He's not even running, yet he's not so far behind!" you gritted your teeth.
"Do not look back, Scary Woman-chan!" said Bon-chan. "Continue to run!"
"Hurry up! Magellan is right there!" shouted Ivankov at the entrance of the next Level.
Wasting no time, you climbed the stairs and you found yourself in Level 2. Never have you realized before how fast you could get to another Hell. Ahead of you, you saw a Puzzle Scorpion, the guard mantis, and the cute hippo from before. A new surge of adrenaline went through you, and both Luffy and Jimbei stared in disbelief as you passed them and went straight to the small hippopotamus.
You swept the little guy in your arms, squealing loudly like a school girl. Now, your captain and the fishman had a mortified expression. Crocodile had one brow raised, but didn't question further in fear of activating another side of you.
"You're so cute~!!!" you cooed, rubbing your cheek against the animal as you continued to run with it.
"Er...(y/n)?" spoke carefully the young boy, but his breath caught in his throat when he saw the look the hippo was giving him.
The same perverted expression from before, with its nostrils contorted weirdly (which reminded him of Sanji a little) and an uncharacteristic wide grin for an hippopotamus. Your captain frowned at the animal, a corner of his lips curving down with teeth bared. You cuddled the hippo, calling it by sweet words. Which managed to piss off Luffy even more, until he had enough.
You blinked when the hippo disappeared from your arms, and saw Luffy tossing him in the wall.
"Luffy!" you yelled indignantly. "Why did you do that?!"
"It's not coming with us!" replied angrily the boy, crossing his arms over his chest.
"What's wrong with this floor?" Crocodile decided to change the subject before you could lash yourself at Luffy. "They can't be this lax"
"It's strange! I don't see any prisoners in the cells!" added Jimbei. "And all the doors are open! I wonder who released them!"
"I think I have an idea..." you sweatdropped, thinking about a certain Red Nose.
"Luffy-kun!" Jimbei gained the attention of your captain. "Marine ships and prison ships are anchored around the prison! If we're able to steal one of them, we can get to Marineford before Ace-san's execution!"
"Great! Wait for me, Ace!"
You finally reached Crimson Hell after half an hour running around the maze that is Level 2. Zoro would certainly got himself lost for an eternity in there. At the horizon, you saw prisoners and a familiar duo running in your direction, chased by the demon guards. Buggy, not looking where he was going, ran into Crocodile and fell on the floor.
"Hey, are you okay?" asked Mr. 3, checking on the clown who groaned.
"You bastard! Watch where you are going, you Crock o--" Buggy started and as he lifted his head to glare at the reason of his fall, his eyes bulged out of their sockets with his teeth. "-DILE?!"
"B-B-B-B-BOSS?!" stammered Mr. 3, his teeth falling out too.
"Huh? Oh, it's you, Mr. 3...What are you doing here, you useless trash?" questioned bluntly the former Shichibukai while said male started to cry.
"C-Captain Buggy!" said a prisoner, and the clown hummed inquisitively. "They KO'd the demon guards!!"
"EHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH?!" both Buggy and Mr. 3 said in unison, all their face's features bulging out as they gazed at Jimbei and Luffy who finished the demon guards.
"S-S-STRAW HAT?!"
"T-T-THAT'S THE WARLORD - JIMBEI!"
"Ah! Good! You guys are okay!" beamed in relief Luffy, and the men were struck by speech bubbles of his words.
"IT BREAKS...." sobbed Buggy.
"....MY HEART!!" finished Mr. 3.
"Captain Buggy! A bunch of prisoners and perverts are coming up one after another from Level 2!"
"PERVERTS TOO?! WHAT THE HELL!?"
"Who are you calling perverts?!" yelled Bon-chan as he came spinning toward Buggy and Mr. 3, kicking them at the same time. "You two! This is for walking out on us back there!"
"YOU'RE HERE TOO, MR.2!?"
"What're you doing to Captain Buggy?!" snapped a group of prisoners.
"Ugh....There's too much going on" you facepalmed, while Jimbei standing next to you simply hummed in agreement.
"Hydra!"
Everyone stopped what they were doing as they looked back to see the Warden in his poisonous form, dragon heads hovering him. The prisoners and Okamas screamed in terror and ran away.
"MAGELLAN IS HERE TOO! WHAT'S GOING ON ON THIS FLOOR!?" shouted Buggy.
"What?! Then Ivan-chan and Crab-chan are...DAMN YOU!!" yelled Luffy, charging at the warden but Bon-chan stopped him by holding his shoulders.
"No, Straw-chan!! Running is the only option we have with Magellan!"
"Let me go, Bon-chan! I got to kick his butt!"
"Don't forget that you nearly died fighting him!"
"But I'm alive now!"
"Miracles don't come often, that's why they are called miracles!!"
"Both of you, let's get to the upper level!" yelled Jimbei, running towards them. "Get to the main entrance quickly! It's not looking good! We were paying too much attention to Magellan!"
"And we still need to find a ship too...." you said.
"HE'S COMING!"
Luffy turned on his heels and ran as Magellan charged his hydra at your group. The dragon heads were faster than you, and as you thought it was the end, Mr. 3 slammed his hands on the floor and created a wall made of wax, stopping the poison.
"Candle Wall!"
"3!!" grinned Luffy.
"He stopped Magellan's Hydra!"
"Your naivety sickens me! Don't think me letting my guard down means I want to be your friend!" stated Mr. 3. "Stupid! I just don't want to owe you any more favors!"
"I admire you even more, brother 3!!!"
"I see...You use wax" spoke the Warden.
"That's right! I ate the Wax-Wax Fruit, and became the wax man! This wall is as tough as iron! It won't let your venom through!"
"That pile of garbage found his use" scoffed Crocodile. "You never know what powers may come in handy"
"You better go now! I don't intend to do this forever!" said Mr. 3.
"How annoying!" growled Magellan, sending a second dragon head that Mr. 3 stopped with another wall.
"Don't just stand there! It won't hold out that long!"
"Okay, I'm going forward. Let's go guys!" said Buggy, running at the exit with the prisoners.
"You've got quite a power!" complimented your captain to the wax man.
"It works well if it's not the fiery floor! Keep going, you guys! I wanna follow right behind you!"
"Luffy-kun, (y/n)-san. We have to go now!" told Jimbei.
"Didn't you say we need to steal a Marine ship? Why don't you go ahead with everyone else? I'll try to stop him!"
"Luffy, you know how dangerous this is. Let me at least do it!" you said to the young boy who shook his head.
"No. I won't risk your life"
"But-"
"(y/n), this is an order" said firmly Luffy, to which you blinked with wide eyes at him. "It'll be hard to steal it with him chasing us anyway"
"That's true, but..." trailed Jimbei, and your captain grinned cockily.
"I have an idea"
"Do you think it's gonna work?"
"Yeah, count on me!"
"Alright, but don't push it too far! I don't want to drag a corpse all the way to Marineford" you warned, turning around to run to the exit.
"Aye! Okay, 3! Let's fight!" Luffy, slammed a fist in his palm.
"I WASN'T GONNA FIGHT!"
You finally arrived at the entrance of Impel Down, and inhaled the fresh air with a content expression. After hours trapped inside this isolated prison, it was a good feeling to see the sun once more. However, you noticed that the group who went ahead of you has stopped, standing still on the docks.
You remarked also that there was no ships in sight, the horizon completely hid by a deep fog.
"I see. They're not as stupid as I thought" muttered Crocodile. "There are large Sea Kings in the water. As is said, the Calm Belt is the greatest barrier protecting Impel Down"
"Dammit! We barely made it this far from the bottom of hell!" cried a prisoner.
"We'll be dragged back to hell!"
"We don't have time to complain!" stated Jimbei, appearing behind. "They cleared out because Magellan told them to do so- but not long ago! Take a good look! You can see shadows of sails slightly in the fog!"
"He is right" you enriched, eye turning purple. "I can distinguish at least 10 battleships, all of them standing in formation"
"But it's too far! We still can't reach them!"
"Yeah, it's too late for us-"
"Don't worry!" cut the fishman, and everyone turned to face him, dumbfounded. "You have me here! Let me handle this!"
Jimbei walked to one of the doors of Impel Down, and broke it out of its hinges with his strength. The prisoners gaped at the fishman as he sauntered back to the sea.
"HE'S CARRYING THE GIGANTIC DOOR BY HIMSELF?!" cried out Buggy.
"I can't carry that many, but let's sail out with this to take one of those ships!" explained Jimbei, and jumped in the water. "Those of you who are determined, get on!"
"Let's just get done with it..." you sighed, leaping on the door that Jimbei used it as a raft.
Two loud noises caught your attention, and you looked over your shoulder to see that Crocodile and Mr. 1 were accompanying you on this mission.
"That's it? Alright then..." stated the fishman, about to swim when Buggy stopped him.
"Oi, aren't you forgetting about me? I know you need me so I'm coming with you!" said the clown, before laughing loudly with the prisoners cheering for him.
"You have a lot of guts!"
"That's our Captain Buggy!"
"Hey, can we just go now?" asked boringly Crocodile.
"Alright! Let's do it!" said Buggy, planting his feet on the raft.
"You all ready? We gotta hurry!"
Without loosing one more second, Jimbei started to swim in direction of the battleships, fast. You had to steady yourself to not fall in the water by how sudden it was when the fishman propelled himself. Though, it didn't take long before you were bombarded by cannon bullets from the ships.
Buggy let out a scream, hiding behind your back. Jimbei merely zigzagged in the water to avoid the cannon bullets, not loosing his speed.
"It seems they found us" spoke the sandman.
"Now that I think about it, you know that you're dead if they ever manage to sink Sushi-kun...." you trailed, and Buggy eyeballed you in horror.
"WHAT DID YOU SAY?!"
"You guys are Devil Fruit users"
"It's better than be poisoned by Magellan" shrugged Crocodile while Mr. 1 simply grunted.
"Sushi-kun?...." sweated the fishman, not believing that you just called him that, but quickly shook his head. "I'm going to lauch you onto the deck! Hold tight!"
"HUH? W-WHAT?! WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY, FISH FACE?" panicked the clown, looking under the door to face Jimbei. "Oi! That bastard's gone! What's going on here?!"
The door drifted on the water for a few seconds, and then became still. The battleships were now simply a few meters away from you, and were now firing at you, their cannon bullets barely missing the raft. Buggy continued to yell and run in circles, while the others were waiting patiently.
"Why did he come with us?" you pointed at the drama queen.
"Jimbei! Where's that bastard gone?! We're gonna get hit!"
"Can't you just be quiet?" demanded Mr. 1.
"IT'S COMING TOWARD US!!!"
Buggy started to sob loudly as four cannon bullets were shot and were coming in your direction. Then, before they could hit, the raft was propelled in the air by a column made of water. The clown's screamed resonated in the sky until you four landed on a battleship, with him crashing inelegantly in the mast.
"They're trying to hijack the ship! Stop them at any cost!" yelled a Marine soldier, the others preparing their weapons.
"We can just throw those Devil Fruit users off into the water! However, we'll have to find a way to capture the woman!"
The Marines encircled Crocodile, Mr. 1 and you, aiming their weapons at their targets. The sandman's eyes traveled around, gazing at each soldier, emotionless.
"You're gonna threw who into the water?" he questioned, some of the Marines gulping slightly.
"You don't know your limits" added Mr. 1.
"Don't be scared! Throw them overboard!" yelled a captain.
At this right moment, a whirlpool appeared next to the ship you were on, Jimbei's upper-half coming out of it.
"Fish-Man Karate!....Spear Wave!!!" he shouted, sending a column of water who looked a beam through one of the chimneys of the ship.
This attack tossed some enemies in the water, or knocked them unconscious for a long while. You deadpanned at the new hole in the ship, glancing at the fishman with a 'are-you-kidding-me?' look.
"Oi, Oi...." Crocodile clicked his tongue in a reprimanding manner.
"Oops. I shouldn't have done that" said Jimbei, not sounding that sorry. "We were gonna use that boat!"
"Throw them off! Don't let them have this ship!"
"You're so damn annoying! Demi-God Realm: Black Bullet" you stated, pulling out one gun and aiming it at the group of Marines coming toward you.
The bullet shot from it created a dark smoke that enveloped itself around the projectile, forming the shape of an arrow. It passed through your opponents and pushed them overboard. Crocodile and Daz did their own part in this plan, and used their abilities to eliminate the Marines who dared confront those two.
Someone tried to surprise you from behind, and bent down to dodge the sword. Turning around, you slammed your leg with a snarl against the enemy's stomach. He was sent crashing against a wall, coughing saliva at the blow.
"Attacking from behind? Such cowardice!" you scoffed with a smirk. "Hungry Ghosts Realm: Kodama! Take care of them, Steven!"
After dealing with the rest of the Marines still alive, Jimbei took the mini Den-Den Mushi that Buggy had on him for an unknown reason. While the clown was now up and kicking, the fishman demanded to talk with Luffy.
"Luffy-kun, you got out?!" demanded Jimbei.
"Yeah, but he's still chasing us! And we're running out of places to run!" responded your captain.
"Sorry! We got a ship but...it'll take some time to get there! Don't stop! Just jump into the water! Throw everyone off into the water as well!"
"WHAT!?" you exclaimed in unison with the several screams of surprise coming from the prisoners in the background. "This is the Calm Belt! They will die immediately!"
"Leave the rest up to me!"
You watched as Jimbei closed the Den-Den Mushi and put aside. He dived in the ocean, leaving you to stare in slight worry the prison. The fishman returned to the surface a few minutes later, and you shot him a questioning look.
"Now, all we need is to hope they will answer..." spoke Jimbei, glaring ahead.
"Who?..." you trailed, and whipped your head in the direction of Impel Down at the sound of an explosion.
From the distance, you saw something big and purple flying in the sky, and you quickly realized it was in fact Ivankov's gigantic head with everyone holding themselves with the help of his hair. Behind them was a red skull hovering the red form of Magellan. They certainly got out in time, but there was nothing for them to land on. Until you saw dorsal fins swimming toward them.
A whale shark leaped out of the water with its big grin, catching Ivankov while another one caught Luffy before he dropped in the sea.
"You made it!" said Jimbei, relieved. "I'm sorry that I should ask you to come to this dangerous area!"
"Whale sharks!" you mused, before letting out a small chuckle at the school of whale sharks. "Unbelievable...There's many of them!"
The whale sharks tossed Ivankov and Luffy like beach balls, until they landed on the ship you stole from the Marine. The prisoners and Okamas inside Ivankov's hair cheered loudly at their freedom, with Luffy fist-pumping the air.
"We made it to the Marine ship!!"
"I can't believe that we escaped from Impel Down!!" sobbed Mr. 3.
"It's not the time to celebrate yet! We have to get going!" said Jimbei, turning the wheel of the boat.
"Yeah, we got the other Marine ships coming at us" you pointed at the horizon where the other boats started to fire at you.
"Even though everybody ranked higher than Vice Admiral has been summoned to Marineford, the Marine ships are still formidable without them!"
The ship sailed across the waters, in a certain pattern to dodge the cannon bullets fired at you from the battleships. However, you unfortunately faced another problem that you didn't think about it beforehand: the Gates of Justice. They were closed, meaning that you couldn't get on the Tarai Current. And that you were all cornered.
"Oh my God! We can't open it!" panicked Mr. 3, clutching his head.
"Damn! It's a dead end after coming this far!" said Luffy, bullets of sweat running down his forehead.
"YOU'RE TALKING LIKE ME!"
"What're we gonna do, you shark?!" demanded Buggy, grabbing and shaking Jimbei's kimono.
"Sail through it!" the fishman responded, still glaring ahead.
"THIS IS IMPOSSIBLE! THIS IS A DISASTER! How can you be so relaxed?!"
"Protect the ship first! That's our priority!" yelled Luffy.
Everyone went on the task to deflect the bullets by using the same weapons. The Devil Fruit eaters used their abilities to toss back the projectiles, being Crocodile creating tornadoes of sand or Luffy simply bouncing back with his stomach the cannon bullets.
"Hungry Ghosts Realm: Kodama - Jingo Jungle!" you shouted, throwing Steven in the air.
The tree monster extended his arms at the sky and created a forest of vines that engulfed the whole ship. Numerous prisoners let out shouts of surprise, while Buggy staggered backward and fell on his ass.
"Good work, (y/n)!" grinned Luffy, and you grunted.
"You don't need to loose your energy with that, but Steven won't hold it that long! So whatever you're planning, make it quick!" you yelled at Jimbei.
The battleships were coming closer, and each cannon bullet that grazed the bark of the vines, or exploded in the water next to you, the ship was rocking in every direction. Jimbei was still heading the boat to the Gates of Justice, and to your big surprise, the doors started to open.
"IT'S OPEN!" shouted the prisoners.
"W-Why is this happening?" stammered Mr. 3. "Is this a trap!?"
"Yes! I don't know why but the gate is opening!" beamed Luffy, doing the wave with the Okamas and inmates.
"Simple. One of your friends decided to stay back and sacrifice himself" spoke Jimbei, and your captain raised a brow at him. "The one who can change his face to another..."
"Bon?!" you said in disbelief. "He took the form of the Warden and ordered to open the gate?!"
"Is that true?" breathed Luffy. "Bon-chan is...."
"Look! The gate is closing!" pointed out a prisoner.
"Yes! If we can get through it, the Marine will be stopped by it!"
"I was with him at the entrance a while ago! He stayed alone at Impel Down?!" asked the young boy, shaking the fishman's arm. "We made it this far at last! We're almost there! Because of Bon-chan, we met Ivan-chan and broke out successfully! And we're gonna go on without him?!"
"We don't have time" replied Jimbei, not even looking at Luffy who became more ticked off.
"Are we gonna leave him there?!"
"We already left hundreds of friends who were beaten!!" barked the fishman, lifting Luffy and tossing him off. "Do you want to go back and fight Magellan?! And lose more friends and time?! To be able to open this gate, we needed somebody to stay there!"
Jimbei pulled out from his sleeve the mini Den-Den Mushi from before, and handed it to Luffy. It was still connected. Your captain took it carefully, and yelled into it:
"Bon-chan! Hey, can you hear me, Bon-chan?! Why are you doing this?! Just like you did in the past! We were gonna break out together, weren't we?! How many times have I been saved by you?! If you are there, say something, Bon-chan!"
"Mr. 2!!" cried the wax man.
"Mr. 2! How dare you!" started to cry Buggy. "I'm sorry about everything!"
"Bon-boy!" enriched Ivankov.
"Bon-chan!!" yelled Luffy with the others. "Bon-chan, the gates are closing. We...have to go.....THANK YOU!!!"
"Brother Bon, thank you!!"
"Thank you!"
"STRAW-CHAN!!!!" came the sudden cry from the snail, who was sobbing. "You gotta save your brother at any cost! I know that you can save your brother for sure!"
"BON-CHAN!!!" wailed your captain. Everyone was now a crying mess.
The Gates of Justice finally closed, and the mini Den-Den Mushi lost the connection.
How those prisoners could still have a party on board for getting out of Impel Down is beyond your comprehension. Luffy was still pretty sad for the lost of Bon-chan, still mopping on the railing with Mr. 3 at his side. Buggy was drinking sake and enjoying the party.
Crocodile and Mr. 1 were standing from a good distance of the cheerful inmates, preferring a calmer and isolated approach. You on your side was laying on top of the railing, gazing at the sky, more than bored. You squinted your eyes in annoyance when Luffy and the clown started to fight because of the lastest saying something stupid. Again.
"WHAT DID YOU SAY?!" snarled Buggy, headbutting your captain.
"Your nose is red, round, and stupid!" snapped Luffy.
"Well, your face is rubbery, stretchy, and stupid!"
"WHAT'D YOU SAY?!"
Buggy was pulling Luffy's cheeks while the other simply squeezed the red nose, an irritating horn sound coming of it. The others watched the fight with deadpans and exasperated expressions. You finally had enough of their quarrel and stood up abruptly. They both seem to smell the danger coming at them, and the idiots slowly looked up at you.
You had your arms folded, a dark shadow cast on your forehead as you glared at Luffy and Buggy.
"You know...Why don't you take a swim to change your mind a little bit, hm?" you suggested darkly.
"Pfft....As if you were determined enough to send us overboard" said Buggy, and Luffy whipped his head to stare at him in horror.
You simply cocked one eyebrow at the statement. And the next minute after, both of them found themselves with their head upside-down, hanging above the sea as you held one leg in each of your hands.
The clown was screaming loudly, calling for the help of the prisoners while they watched the scene unfold, not sure about what to do since you were scary as fuck. The young boy had tears in his eyes, shaking his head while he pleaded to you to not let them fall.
"Who said I wasn't determined to let you two fall?" you wondered loudly, looking at the idiots with half-lidded eyes.
"N-N-NO ONE!!!" yelled Buggy.
"Oh, really? Then I don't have to hold you anymore...." you said.
Your statement followed by your grasp weakening and the two slowly sliding more toward their imminent death if you ever let go. This caused a girlish scream to escape Luffy and Buggy's lips.
"BUGGY! JUST APOLOGIZE ALREADY!" panicked the young boy, his arms flailing in every direction. "SHE'S GOING TO KILL US!"
"I'M SORRY, I'M SORRY, I'M SORRY!!!"
With a sigh, you threw them over your shoulders and they crashed against the deck with a loud thud. Placing a hand over one hip, you shot at the two a nasty expression:
"Next time I will attach you two at the back of the ship, and let it drags your corpses! Am I clear?!" you snarled.
"YES MA'AM" saluted Buggy and Luffy.
"Realm of God there's so annoying...." you muttered as you walked to stand next to Jimbei.
"Ah, (y/n)-san. You gave me an opportunity to save Ace-san...I owe you and Luffy a great debt" the fishman said.
"Don't think of it in terms like that. There'd be no end of it!" said Luffy, jumping over the railing to land besides you. "For me, it's just encouraging to have you along! You're so strong!"
"I want to thank you and apologize you for the other case before this. You can call me Jimbei!" he continued, and you sweatdropped as Luffy went back to fight with Buggy, despite your warning. "I'm a Shichibukai but I'm sure they'll revoke my title! So let's run wild at Marineford! We have to live up to the expectations of Okama-kun and Ace-san at any cost!"
"A Shichibukai/Marineford...?" repeated Luffy and Buggy together.
Then, they finally came to the realization after the long process of comprehending Jimbei's words, and faceplanted on the floor.
"O-O-O-OI! YOU'RE A SHICHIBUKAI?! NO WONDER YOU'RE STRONG!"
"HEY! WHAT'S ABOUT MARINEFORD?! DON'T TELL ME WE'RE HEADING THERE!?"
"Yes, we are" you answered bluntly, and the clown screeched.
"NO! I know that you guys know about the war between Whitebeard and the Marine!"
"It's obvious. It's your faults for being so clueless" said Crocodile.
"WHAT?!"
"We passed through the Gates of Justice. That means our destination must be either Marineford or Enies Lobby. The Tarai Current that we are on is exclusive to the Government. It's a giant whirlpool that connects the Government's major facilities. We wanted to break out because we have a role in this war!"
"Aye" nodded with a smile Luffy. "The real fight is on its way!"
"THE REAL FIGHT IS ON ITS WAY?!" repeated in unison Mr. 3 and Buggy.
"W-WE DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT THIS!" shouted the prisoners.
"STOP THE SHIP RIGHT NOW, YOU FISH BASTARD!" said the clown as he jumped on Jimbei with Mr.3.
"STOP!!"
"We can't stop because we are on the current!" replied the fishman.
"Why don't you guys get off?" suggested stupidly Luffy.
"NO, WE CAN'T! DEVIL FRUIT USERS LIKE US WILL DEFINITELY BE KILLED!"
*PURU PURU PURU....PURU PURU PURU....PURU PURU PURU....*
"Huh? It sounds like a Den-Den Mushi is nearby" you said, walking closer to the source of noise.
There was two metallic doors inside the main mast of the ship, and you opened them to reveal the Den-Den Mushi in question. You turned to the others, trying to see if there was anyone opposed to answer it, but they didn't seem that bothered.
You took the responder, answering it:
"Hello?" you greeted, and the others faceplanted.
"SHE ANSWERED IT!!"
"This is the Marine Headquarters" spoke the voice. "We know that the ship has been taken by escapees. We received a report from the Fleet Escort Force at Impel Down. We determined who the three main suspects of this great escape case were...from the insider information before contact was lost"
"Three?" questioned Mr. 3.
"A pirate - Straw Hat Luffy. The second most wanted person by the World Government - Silvers (y/n). And another pirate - Buggy the Clown"
"W-What?!"
"Captain Buggy is the main suspect although there are Shichibukai here?! Who the hell are you?!"
"Why me?!" whimpered Buggy.
"We thought that you were just a nameless pirate. Buggy the Clown, I can't believe that you were a member of the crew on the ship of Gold Roger, the King of the Pirates"
"HOW'D YOU KNOW THAT?!"
"EHHHHHHHHHHH?!"
"The ship that means Oro Jackson?!"
"HE'S A STAR! A STAR AMONG PIRATES!"
"We also know that you are a sworn brother of 'Red Haired' Shanks, one of the Yonko" continued the voice. "How could someone like this have laid low until now...without raising an alarm. But now, you've made yourself know"
"Well..." trailed Buggy, not sure how to commence his sentence.
"We can't see clearly your connection with 'Fire-Fist' Ace, but we're sure that your goal is the same as Straw Hat - Ace's rescue! We know that you have Jimbei, Crocodile, Ivankov, and more than 200 ruffians who are also escapees on board. I warn you. As long as we don't open the Gate of Justice, you guys can't get to Marineford or even get out of the Tarai Current! There's no sea for you to get all away to or to live on! Better make yourselves comfortable! That's it"
"Hey, Marine guy..." you finally spoke. "......We're gonna kick your ass and rescue Ace at any cost. Go get yourself some diapers and be ready for us!"
You disconnected the snail and closed the doors while the others gaped at you. Luffy had stars in his eyes as he wailed about how badass you were.
"Captain Buggy! Were you really a member of the Crew?! And a sworn brother Red Hair?!" demanded a prisoner.
"Our savior is one hell of a pirate as we thought!"
"Well, about that-"
"I didn't know that. But I remember the Vice Captain old man was saying that" trailed Luffy, and the clown blinked at his words.
"The Vice Captain?"
"The man named Rayleigh and (y/n)'s father, I bet you know him"
"WHAT!? Have you seen Rayleigh-san?!" exclaimed Buggy with a wide grin. "I miss Vice Captain! Where did you see him?! Wait a minute.....RAYLEIGH'S DAUGHTER?!"
"Not really" you drawled at the man who was eyeing you as if you just told him you were pregnant with his child. "That old fart just adopted me"
"NO WONDER ABOUT YOUR TEMPERAMENT AND STRENGTH! DID HE MAKE YOU WALK ON TOP OF A VOLCANO?!"
"I already told you that in Level 4..."
"They are talking about 'Dark King' Rayleigh! What a conversation!!" gushed in awe a prisoner.
"Captain Buggy! I knew you were something!"
The inmates lifted the clown and chanted his name like he was a hero. Buggy was struggling to tell them to not make a big fuss about it, but with the expression he was making, he certainly found a way to take advantage of it.
"Captain Buggy! We'll follow you the rest of our lives!"
"Give us an order! Let's steal this ship from the ones who wants to go to Marineford!"
"And then, we're gonna be free!"
The prisoners continued to yell Buggy's name, while some of them took weapons and threatened to kill you. The clown jumped on top of the railing, gaining the attention of his new followers:
"Be quiet, you flashy fools! You guys are all full of whim and fancy! This ship won't stop! We're heading to the center of this war! And you guys are already on board! Brace yourself and think about it! Soon, the man at the top of the world is gonna show up in our midst! This is a once-in-a-lifetime chance. If you guys are real men, why don't you live up a dream with me? Today...I'll beat Whitebeard, which means I'll conquer the world!"
"Yeah! Captain Buggy!" shouted the prisoners as a strange light engulfed the clown, and they all released their weapons.
"We were devastated by the darkness of hell..."
"And we almost lost the most important thing! Losing the jewels of our hearts that we once had - called dream!"
"I will follow you!"
"That's right! Let's go, guys! To Marineford!" yelled Buggy.
"AYE!!!!"
"....What the fuck just happened?" you muttered.
