Who will it be? (One Piece ff)

7. Heart Pirates, Call and Pursuers

I'm still sitting next to the cute, fluffy polar bear Bepo in the galley. To my left, Law sits in his armchair and diagonally to the right in front of me Ace sits on a chair. All our eyes are on the two angry cap wearers in front of us. Speaking of the cap wearers.. Both have a high red head and lean menacingly on the table. So it would at least seem threatening if the two were not bright red.

"What? Are you embarrassed? Awww how cute you both can be, but now we are halfway quitt. I didn't know that I was just running around here in my underwear. No one left me with spare clothes." I address my word to the two of them. Of course I grin.

Did I mention that I like to provoke people and bring them to white heat? No? Then you know it now.

"You don't have to be embarrassed by the whole thing, you look good and are well stocked. I've seen worse than the two of you, so relax and it would be nice if you introduced yourself first." I say.

"That's really not nice!! We are not used to having women here and then such a good-looking woman stares at us! Really not fair! Oh yes and my name is Shachi.", the first of the two answers me and sits down. He still looks angry. A cap that looks like a killer whale is on his head. The second cap wearer, whose name I don't know yet, attracts my attention. He sat down and stares at me really badly.

I start grinning and can't resist a little provocation. "Oh come on sweety, you can't be so sour because of the little bath action, can you?" I ask him with a sugar-sweet smile. Law changes his sitting position and stares at me with an indefinable look. Sometimes I wonder what's going on in this surgeon's head. And then I wonder again if I really want to know what's going on in his head...

"What actually happened?" Ace addresses his question to me and thus gets me out of my thoughts again. Ace tilts his head in confusion. God he looks damn cute when he does that. How can a guy who is wanted by many, a high-ranking commander of an yonko and accordingly strong, be so damn cute??? Can anyone answer that? Because I can't find an answer to this question!

"I saw the two of them naked in the bathroom when I was looking for the galley. After I woke up. Oh yes and the two of them only saw me in underwear, because I didn't know or rather noticed that I didn't have Any other clothes on anymore. By the way, I don't know your name yet." I give Ace as an answer and address my last sentence to the young man still unknown to me. Finally, I have to distract my thoughts from the cute Ace.

The cap man also reacts quite quickly and answers me quite irritably and concisely: "Penguin."

So the sign on his cap is not an inside joke but his name. Good to know. I have to ask my vice-captain again who she likes.

"And what is your name?" both cap wearers ask as if from one mouth. We hate this question.. What good is it for people to know my name or how old I am? Exactly, nothing at all.

"It's of no use to you to know my name, so I won't give you my real name either." I answer honestly. Immediately Law and his crew get serious. Even Ace gets serious and doesn't seem satisfied with my answer. Astonishing. Even if he is serious, he has something sweet.

"Before more questions come up, I want my transponder snail and weapons back. If I wanted to see you all dead, I would have killed you long ago. So?" I say quickly before anything can escalate.

Law gives Bepo a sign. This disappears and comes back a few minutes later with my things.

I don't think twice, put the telescopic snail on the table in front of me and choose a certain number. Shortly thereafter, the call is answered.

"If you're not our captain, then fuck yourself and piss off! The line needs to be free!" growls a male, aggressive voice into the transponder snail. I haven't heard it for a long time! Damn I missed it!

"But that's not a nice welcome. I actually taught you that differently." I answer the voice with a grin.

Silence.

Death silence.

It was easy 2 minutes completely quiet.

"Hello? Are you still alive? Maybe I dialed the wrong number?" I ask my crew.

Shortly afterwards you hear that something is dropped and many steps that are getting closer. In addition, many confused roaring voices.

"Olive!" - "Scar!" - "Oli!" - "My Queen!" and mainly "Captain!!" can be heard.

I start laughing and both Ace and Law and his crew look confused at my transponder snail and me.

"Where have you been?! What happened?! Are you okay?! Where the hell are you?!" I am bombarded with questions from the voice that has taken off the transponder snail.

"Calm Down Isaac. So firstly I was in the Sabaody archipelago, where I had some fights and was badly wounded. You know me, since I couldn't shut up, I aroused the interest of a few pirates. Thus to secondly I am currently on the submarine of the Heart Pirates and the Surgeon of Death with Portgas D. Ace. Ace was my ride to get to you from the Sabaody archipelago. But Trafalgar Law picked us up on the way and put us on his submarine. There I folded down and was unresponsive for the last 5 days, thanks to too much blood loss. Before you start, yes, I'm fine. Law and his people took good care of me. To the last question, no idea, we are somewhere on the Grand Line. I've only been awake for about 2 hours or so," I rattle down, but in such a way that my crew understands me.

"Okay...... When will you be back with us?" asks Isaac.

My gaze wanders to Law. He looks at me long and extensively, then sighs annoyed and asks Isaac: "Where are you right now?"

I notice even through the transponder snail that Isaac gets angry. "Calm down Isaac and please give the coordinates. We will meet you there." I give my order. It is quiet for a short time and then Isaac passes the coordinates. Shortly thereafter, Bepo disappears and sets the new course.

"Is my son also with you blood blade Adam's ?" I hear an older voice ask. He sounds old, but he still has a certain authority in his voice.

"Pops?! I'm here too! What are you doing?!" Ace answers the old man's question and asks a counter-question directly. So it's Whitebeard. Good to know.

There is a rough and deep laugh to hear.

"We have been waiting here for 4 days together with the crew of the blood blade! Here were the coordinates we identified. Here we should wait for you. You didn't get in touch to let us know any changes. So make an effort and come here quickly. As soon as you are here, we will celebrate properly!" says Whitebeard now.

Ace and Whitebeard talk for a while. From time to time you can hear a few other Whitebeard pirates and I hear my crew shouting every now and then that I should come to the transponder snail. Damn I miss my crazy crew. My crew is a messed up bunch. I wouldn't trade them for anything in the world. They are my beloved family.

Bepo comes back to the galley, my eyes are automatically on him.

"In about 3 hours we will be at the coordinates captain." says Bepo to Law and he seems to be quite nervous. He jumps from one leg to the other. Okay, jumping it's not direct, rather hopping. But then the question arises: Why is he so nervous?

"What's going on?" asks Law, annoyed, addressing Bepo. He also seems to have noticed it. He is also very attentive to his crew.

"Well.. So... The Kid Pirates are on our heels and don't seem to give up so quickly. Sorry.." apologizes the cute polar bear.

"Stop apologizing!" it comes at the same time from the cap wearers Penguin and Shachi.

The Kid Pirates? Is Kid really that resentful and persistent? Actually cute, but also kind of annoying.

"Then I would say that we are stepping on the gas. Maybe we'll meet the idiot before we get there. He will definitely only cause us trouble." Law gives the order. Immediately his crew scurries around and carries out the order given.

Well, I'm curious. Do we manage to arrive before Kid catches up with us or is Kid faster?
