Nova smiled then started to follow K onto his ship. She was glad that things turned out to be better between the two crews. She wondered what was in store for them on the penninsula. What ever it was she would face it and bring her crew back. Letting her crew suffer and or die was not an option in her mind. Nova clapped her hands in excitement when Riki said about cooking. "Does that mean we get to eat?" She always had an appetite and loved to be cooked for. "I was starting to get slightly hungry if so." She gave a wide smile to Riki. "And I will not have to eat Eureka's terrible cooking for once." She added with a snicker. Ifrit followed behind Nova. "Thank you for the compliment Riki. This will be my first ride on a ship. I too am excited." He said fiddling with his hands.

 

Kurage was glad that they were helping these pirates. It got them off the island while they waited for the shipment of log poses to get in and possible formed a friendship for the future. It is always good to have allies outside of your own crew. Hopefully they would remain to be Anomaly's allies even after all this is said and done.

[Hotaru987]

Otsumi blushed. "Of course I know where it is! It's...Under the water.." Crystal laughed causinf Ostumi to fume. "HEY STOP LAUGHING!!!" "Listen," Crystal started once her laughing fit was over. "Why don't you tell us why you need this pearl over some food. You look pretty hungry."

 

"I'll never except food from piraits." She crossed her arms defiantly. Suddenly a loud growl covered the area that aused a certain Captain to smirk. "How about now? Our food good enough for you?"

 

"Ugh! Fine!"

 

"You heard the woman Daichi! Fix us something to eat!!"

 

------------

 

"Stupid bugs." Sana mumbled smacking her arm. "Actually I do have a devil fruit power." She answered Yoh's question. She was in the back of the small group. "I ate the Shock Shock fruit, so now I an manipulate, create, and chanhe into electricity."

 

Sana held up a finger allowing lightning to dance around it. "See. So any monsters that comes near us are in for a nasty surpri- AHH!!! SPIDER!!" She yelled hiding behind Yoh pointing to the huge black spider that came down from the tree. It was about as big as her head. "WHAT THE HELL ARE THESE THINGS EATING!?!"

 

---------------

 

Toni was one of the first few people back on the ship. If this island was a tough as everyone says then her Tetsugen was ineed of an upgrade. In the last stop she brought a new Kunai. It was stronger, lighter, and most importantly, it was new. Not only that but she felt she needed to add more wire to the wire plate on her arm.

 

Vincent boarded the ship after Nova. After looking around the deck, and examining their unusual ship. He sat down and took out some cleaning equipment for his swords.

[.:Blu:.]

Yoh was scared as well after seeing the spider. "Ahh! That's a pretty big spider! I consider that a monster, Sana do something!" Yoh said as he tried to hide behind Sana. "Hehe, you kids, it's just a spider. Shoo!" Muri yelled at the spider who then crawled away. "See, that wasn't so hard to get rid of now was it?" Muri said confidently as he turned back around to the two. Yoh scaredly pointed behind Muri. "Ch-Ch-Chef Muri.... Be-be-behind yo-u...." Yoh stuttered. "Hmm, is something the matter? You two look like you've just seen a ghost." Muri then turned around and he was faced by an army of spiders. "Ga-ga-ga-GAH!!!! RUN!!!!" Muri said as he ran away followed by Yoh. The spiders were chasing after them through the forest.

 

"Well, I learn one thing today. Never wash your hands in the leech stream." Jack said as he pointed towards a sign saying "Leech Stream: Beware". "I'm getting a little bit sleepy, aren't you Yura?" Jack asked. "Umm.... not really...." Yura responded. "You're right, let's go on shall we?!" Jack then began walking, after three steps however, Jack fell to the ground face-first. His back was covered by thirty leeches. Jack's eyes were swirling around, showing that he was unconscious.

 

Dan had finally caught the hawk and took back his diary. "Hah! Take that you stupid bird! I caught you!" Dan said with a confident smile. The hawk then peck Dan's head and flew off. "OUCH! HEY STUPID BIRD! I DARE YOU TO TRY THAT AGAIN!" Dan yelled. "{Sigh} What's wrong with these animals." The ground began to shook violently. "What the- An earthquake?" Dan said. Suddenly, from the forest came a stampede of deers. "AHH!!!!" Dan said as he ran away from the deers. However, the deers still were stampeding in Dan's direction. "I hate wildlife!!!!" Dan said as he ran as fast as he could to get away.

"Oh boy." Arashi whistled when he saw the size of the man. "And here I thought I was big." He watched as the large man lifted up a boulder. "How many times do I have to say it" Daichi grabbed his sword and in one quick slice the boulder was cut in half and fell to the ground on eater side of him. "I'm a dragon, not a lizard."

---

"Right! Food, coming up." Daichi walked in to the kitchen and started cooking. "Lucky for me I spent about 2 years having to fend for myself, so I know a little bit about cooking." Daichi looked at the food he was trying to cook. "Who am I kidding, this is far from what people expect from a crews cook."

[.:Blu:.]

"Hehe! You think just 'cause you cut the rock in half means you're tough?! I don't think so Kid!!!! Eat this!!!! Earth-Earth Guillotine!!!!" Boulder yelled as he slammed his forearm into the ground with immense force. The impact from the blow made several large pieces of earth flew towards Arashi. The slabs of earth are very thick which means a sword wouldn't be able to cut through it if it didn't have more momentum than the slabs of earth. "Try and escape that Lizard Man!!!!" Boulder than ripped a tree from the ground and swung it like a bat towards giant boulders. The boulders then flew towards Arashi as well. It was a barrage of earth slabs and giant rocks.

[Hotaru987]

"Hurry up Daichi! We're starving out here!" Crystal yelled then turning back to Otsumi. "So you're telling me that your family borrowed money from a shady guy, who just happened to be a loan shark, and now you guys are indebted to him. And you're hoping that with this pearl you can pay him back all the money you owe." She whistled. "Man you'll need some serious luck to pull all that off."

 

"I know but that's why this pearl is so important."

 

----------

 

"I HATE SPIDERS!!!" Sana yelled still running from the army of spiders. After a while Sana stopped and turned around. "That's it! Shock Shock Wave!!" She slammed her hands on the ground and electricity traveled across the ground, and up the trees killing every spider. Once it was over sana collasped to the ground.

 

"HA! No spider is a match for me!" She punched her fist in the air and paled at the baby spider on her arm. "......AAAAHHHHH!!!!!"

[Esplin 9466 Primary]

Arashi swung his sword at the earth to try and cut it, but it was no use. "Crap." The earth slammed in to Arashi and forced him back, covering him with rocks. "If you think this is gonna be enough to beat me, you've got another thing coming." Arashi pushed one of the rocks off of him as he stood up, his body covered in bruises. Some of the rocks close to him where slightly melted. "I was able to use my fire breath at the last second to weaken the impact of the rocks, but I don't know how many times a stunt like that will work." He thought to himself as he readied his sword. "I guess you don't know. In certain storied dragons are said to be immortal."

---

Daichi stepped outside of the kitchen just in time to hear the reason for the girl searching for the pearl. "Food." Daichi called out. "It's no 5 course meal, but it's pretty much all I know how to make." Daichi placed a large plate on the table between the two girls, on the plate there where about 20-30 cheeseburgers. "Unless you would rather have fish. Personally I can't stand sea food....... makes me wonder why I ever became a pirate."

[.:Blu:.]

"Ahh.... Electricity.... Thanks to you Sana now we're safe...." Muri said while placing his hand on his chin, and while Muri was talking, Yoh was trying to blow the baby spider off of Sana's arm in the background. Finally the baby spider left Sana's arm, but it jumped onto Yoh's face. "Ahh!" Yoh screamed as he run around in circles. Yoh finally stopped running when he collided with a tree and fell to the ground. "Ouch...." Muri walked over to Sana and Yoh. "You guys look what I found." Muri showed to Sana and Yoh a seed from the loom fruit. "We must be close, but if we're closer, the dangers are even higher. The loom fruit is a favorite food of the Wolly Bear. A bear that is said to be 25 feet tall and is immune to devil fruit powers." Muri said.

 

"But you're not a dragon, you're just a puny lizard!!!!" Boulder said as he charged at Arashi. "Earth-Earth Shell!!!!" Slabs of earth flew towards Boulder and covered him, making a suit of earth armor. "HAHAHA!!!! Earth-Earth Train!!!!" Boulder's speed increased as he continued on charging towards Arashi.

[Hotaru987]

Neither girls were paying attention to Daichi as they were scarfing down the burgers. "These are actually pretty good. For a pirate anyway." Otsumi said through a mouthful of food. It was a wonder how she spoke so clearly. "Yeah, he's a surprise some times. You know for a pirate." Crystal agreed still eating as well.

 

------------

 

"A bear that's immune to devil fruit powers? Then how the hell am I supposed to kill it? Does it have some sort of weakness that I could use against it?" Sana asked dusting herself off. "Either way I'm no push over.....Well as long as there are no spiders anywhere. Besides nothing is invincible. All you have to do is know where it strike."

[Esplin 9466 Primary]

"That's it. I'll show you a lizard!!" Arashi yelled at the charging boulder. Arashi stabbed his sword in to the ground and then transformed in to his full dragon form. In a quick motion Arashi opened his mouth and closed his jaws in around boulder. Arashi kept his jaws firmly closed as boulder tried to force his mouth open. Arashi stared at the other bandit who was still in the area and slammed his tail on the ground for intimidation.

---

"I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing." Daichi sighed as he sat down. He had decided not to eat, instead he watched.

[.:Blu:.]

"Well actually the bear is relatively peaceful and won't attack unless threaten, I only wanted to say that to try and scare you two, but I guess plan failed huh?" Muri said as he laughed nervously. "Anyways, the bear is said to be a myth, so we probably won't encounter it anytime soon. Let's just continued on with our search. Maybe we should check on the others to see if they're having any problems. What do you think Sana? Besides, you're the only one with a transponder snail in this group." Muri said.

 

"Earth-Earth Hammer!!!!" Boulder yelled inside of Arashi as a giant pillar of earth appeared besides Arashi and slammed into him. Boulder was able to escape in that moment. "Earth-Earth Giant!!!!" More slabs of earth and rocks began to cover Boulder's body until he grew to an enormous size, larger than Arashi's full dragon form. "Take this!!!!" Boulder began throwing punches towards Arashi, hoping to hit him. Each punch caused a shockwave in the air.

[Esplin 9466 Primary]

"This is very bad." Arashi thought to himself as Boulder covered himself with rocks. "Okay, so you're a little bigger than me, but you have one fatal flaw." Arashi flew in to the air to avoid the punches as he started gathering flames in his mouth. "When I'm in my full dragon form, my flames are 30 times stronger than in my hybrid form." Arashi opened his mouth and shot a blast of blue fire at the rocks, the heat started melting the rocks together until it was melted completely around boulder, the heat was also enough to melt some of the rocks to boulders skin. "Think about that next time you want to call me a lizard!"

[Hotaru987]

Sana reached into her pocket grabbing the transmitter snail. "Oh, yeah I completely forgot about it." She turned it on befiore putting it to her mouth. "Um, hello? Can any of you guys hear me? Just checking up on you guys. Making sure none of you died yet." She joked waiting for a reply.

 

------------

 

Once the hamburgers were all gone both females sat back content. "Ok, so I don't see any reason for not helping you." Crystal grinned.

 

"But....You both have a devil fruit. You guys can't swim." Crystal tilted her head. "How could you know that? Anyway no sweat. Daichi can morpg into an aquatic animal so I can ride with him. I also saw you have an extra diving suit so why not? Besides loan sharks are jearks, and I hate jerks."

 

Crystal looked at Daichi. "You got a problem with that?"

[.:Blu:.]

"Hehe! You think I'm done already? Far from it Little Lizard!!!! Earth-Earth Giant Hammer!!!!" Boulder's hand became as the name suggested, a giant hammer. "Hah!!!!" Boulder slammed his hammer into Arashi, forcing him back quite a distance and causing a pretty damaging bruise. Upon impact, air can be seen coming out from Arashi's body, opposite to the side of the impact, suggesting its power. "Earth-Earth Machine Gun!!!!" Thousands of small rocks shot towards Arashi with quick speed.

 

"Sana?.... This is Yura.... Umm, Jack has just became unconscious due to a large amount of bloodlost.... I'm taking care of him right now so I'll have to contact you later...." Yura said.

 

Dan got up from a bush. He was now covered in bruises and his clothes were ripped. "No I haven't died yet! But I was about to! I hate this stupid forest! That's why I became a pirate!!!!" Dan yelled and then hung up.

 

"Uhh... so is everything alright?" Yoh asked.

[Hotaru987]

A large sweat drop appeared on Sana's head as she chuckled nervously. "Um...I think they're alright...But from the sound of it we're the closest to our goal." She put the phone snail up and turned to face Mori and Yoh. "I think we should just keep going. Those guys will be fine....Maybe.....I think....Probably....." She sighed shaking her head. "Im worried now..."

[.:Blu:.]

"Well then, let's move on!" Muri said as he began walking higher up. "It's okay Sana, I'm sure they'll be fine, let's go!" Yoh reassured Sana. Yoh gave Sana a warm smile to try and cheer her up and then grabbed her hand and walked with her. Due to the fact that Yoh is only a little kid, he had to held his hand high up to reach Sana's hand. Muri then suddenly stopped. "Mo-mo-moutain bandits!" Muri exclaimed as they entered into a opened part of the forest. Three mountain bandits stood on top of a large boulder. One mountain bandit in particular seems to be the strongest of the three. The mountain bandit is a tall man at 6'2". He had long black hair and was wearing a long blue robe, white pants, and brown boots. "Well, well, what do we have here?" the mountain bandit asked as he was eyeing Sana.

[Esplin 9466 Primary]

"No problem captain." Daichi saluted. "I'll find that pearl or die trying." He laughed slightly. "Of course, let's hope that I can just find it without dying." He jumped on to the side of the ship and looked back to Otsumi. "You stay here and get some rest. I'll be back with the pearl in no time."

---

Arashi was unable to answer the call from the transponder snail do to dropping it when he turned in to a dragon. Arashi let out a loud roar of pain when he was hit by the hammer. His roar was plenty loud enough for anybody in the area to hear it without much trouble. "It's gonna take more than that to stop me you freak!" Arashi once again spit out a blast of fire and melted the rocks. "Dammit, I can avoid his attacks, but I can't beat him unless I kill him. What the hell am i supposed to do?" Arashi thought to himself as he landed on the ground.

[Hotaru987]

Sana couldn't help but smile at Yoh. He was pretty brave to come up this mountain with everyone. She was going ti say something but Mori's yell beat her to it. "It's none of your buisness . So why done you three just move along." Sana said moving in front both Mori and Yoh, releasing Yoh's hand in the process. "Now move aside, I don't want to hurt any of you."

 

-----------

 

"WHAT!! NO WAY!!" Both females yelled standing up. "Im coming with you! It's bad enough that I have pirates helping me but there's no way I'm letting you do allof the work." Ostumi yelled. Crystal following her up, "Yeah, and I'm the captain. So yyou better wait for me t get ready." She said and quickly stripped to her undergarments before putting on the diving equipment, with Otsumi's help of course.

 

"Man this oxygen tank weighs a ton." Otsumi only smirked being the first to dive in the ocean. "Let's go you two!"

 

"Hey Daichi if you let me die I will kill you." Crystal said like she was telling the weather. She threw an arm around his neck. "So lets go, yes?"

[.:Blu:.]

"HAHAHA!!!! What's the matter Little Lizard?! Tired already?! Well don't worry, cause I'll will kill you right now!!!! HAHAHA!!!!! Earth-Earth Meteor!!!!" Suddenly, all of the rocks and earth slabs covering Boulder flew up into the air. Boulder fell to the ground as he watched more rocks and earth slabs flew up from the ground and collected into one humongous ball. "Now die!!!!" The giant earth ball then traveled towards Arashi. From afar the earth ball may look as if it was slow, but close up, it was traveling at an incredible speed. Fire even began to formed on the ball, making its appearance like a meteor.

 

Muri quickly brought Yoh to a safe spot. "Be careful Sana!" Yoh yelled out. "Oh, so it's none of our business huh? Well, once you step foot on this mountain, than it is our business. Get 'em." Upon command, the two behind the main mountain bandit dashed towards Muri and Yoh.

[Esplin 9466 Primary]

"Nobody listens to the doctors orders anymore do they?" Daichi complained when Crystal and Otsumi both said that Otsumi would be helping. Daichi had not been warned when Crystal decided to change in front of him and he almost fell off the ship in surprise. "Can't you find a room when you do that!?" He yelled.

When Crystal climbed on his back Daichi grabbed her legs and stood up. "I won't have any hands when I transform, so hold on to my fin." Without another word of warning Daichi jumped in to the water. Just before landing in the water he shifted in to his only aquatic morph, the dolphin. >I'll use my sonar to try and find the pearl.< Daichi said before going under water.

---

"This is not good. This is very not good."Arashi flapped his wings as hard as he could as he tried to get away from the rock.

[Hotaru987]

Sana frowned standing in front of the cooks, and getting ready. "Alright I tried to warn you." She ran towards the closest one quickly sending him flying with a good electircally charged punch. The second one met the same fate only this time with a kick. Sana smirked. "My Shock Shock gloves. I tried to go easy on them, but that's as far as my mercy goes. Get the hell out of here and that's my final warning."

 

-------------

 

Crystal quickly grabbed his fin awkwardly kicking her legs. It was weird being underwater and not drowning. Crystal looked a head and saw Ostumi swimming around and she felt jealous. Crystal had loved the water when she was young but after eating a cursed fruit her love for water hand been put aside.

 

Soon Ostumi took the lead stopping once they had sawm at least a mile from the ship. 'It's around here somewhere' Ostumi signed. 'It's supposed to be in a sunken ship...but I can never get through the sharks and other man eaters.'

[.:Blu:.]

The meteor got closer and closer to Arashi, but when it got extremely close, the meteor began falling apart, piece by piece. Boulder nearby has used up to much energy and couldn't keep the meteor from holding up. "Damn you.... You won.... Dragon...." Those were Boulder's last words as he fell face-first to the ground. Boulder called Arashi "Dragon", symbolizing his new-found respect for Arashi's abilities. "Boulder!" Without another word, the other mountain guard carried Boulder off, it seems this mountain guard had superhuman strength but decided not to battle.

 

The two mountain bandits were sent flying away. The main mountain bandit's eyes widened by surprised. "(A person with devil fruit abilities? Tsch, things are never easy around here....) Allow me to grace your ears with my name. I am Tyran T. Deeno. It's quite bothersome to deal with someone with devil fruit abilities, but it would seem that I have no choice. Fine, I'll kill you where you stand Girl...." Tyran's left leg began transforming into a huge green, reptillian leg. "Tyrant Gatling Kick!!!!" Tyran started to perform a barrage of incredibly fast kicks towards Sana. They were so fast that it appeared to be multiple legs kicking at the same time.

[namelessk]

As Trace walked towards Tupringer's ship, he noticed that her crew didn't even pay the least bit of attention to him. Something had to be up. He had just defeated 5 Sea Kings. That had to have gotten their attention. Just then, he heard the words "Fire." and quickly jumped back as a reflex. As he did, he kicked off of the ground to move backwards, but his foot was caught by the net. He remained calm, however, even as the cannonballs were coming at him. He tried to change his hand into a claw, but for some reason it didn't change. He quickly realized something was wrong, and so he decided to kick with his right leg, sending out a Rankyaku wave into the net. The net was quickly sliced apart, and Trace used this chance to kick off of the air while he fell, disappearing with Soru. He appeared high in the air, using Geppou to keep himself afloat while he stared down at them. Good thing he had his Rokushiki techniques and didn't only rely on his Devil Fruit.

 

"Ah...I see." he said as he tried to change his hand into a claw and back again. "That net was made of Seastone. That means this was a trap. Thing is, how did they even know I was coming in the first place." Trace muttered to himself. He looked back towards the ship, staring right at Tupringer. He disappeared with Soru once more. In the next few seconds, he appeared on the front of Tupringer's ship, standing on top of the figrehead. "Eh...you're under arrest. I'm gonna have to bring you in for questioning." Trace said, standing there with his hands in his pockets. He was ready at any moment to counter if she attacked him.

[.:Blu:.]

"Humph, it wopuld seem our little plan had failed, but that's alright, at least now I can have the enjoyment of killing you myself Marine scum." Allaine stated with visible signs of calm anger in her voice. "It seems that you Marines have linked me to a certain pirate huh? I knew you would be coming thanks to a certain spy, but let's stop with the chattering. I know you Marines are busy people, so I won't waste anymore of your time with my constant chattering." Allaine stated calmly as a lion's tail appeared. "Sphinx-Sphinx Whip!" Allaine lashed her tail towards Trace. The momentum of the tail was enough to cause the air to rip.

[Esplin 9466 Primary]

>You never said anything about sharks!< Daichi yelled as they got closer to the ship and he noticed the sharks approaching. "Dammit." Arashi thought to himself. "If I was alone then the sharks wouldn't be a problem, but with Crystal on my back, it's too dangerous to attack." Suddenly Daichi felt a slight pain in his lungs. >Guys, I have to get to the surface of the water.< Daichi said in a panic. >I was so preoccupied that I forgot Delphinus capensis can't breath under water.< He was panicking so muck that he accidentally reverted to his habit of calling animals by there scientific name. >Come on!< Without another word Daichi swam as fast as he could to the surface of the water, while still making sure that Crystal was able to stay on his back.

---

Arashi landed on the ground ant watched the bandits leave. "I won because he used up all of his stamina too quickly. I was the bedder fighter I guess." Of course it didn't take Arashi long to start feeling his own stamina loss. He transformed in to a human. "Then again, another two seconds and I would be dead."
