The Lunarian (Slow updates)(AU)

Chapter 10: The Search & Fight (reworked)

(Third Person POV) Year: 1504 (Two Weeks Later) Location: Random ass Island I didn't feel like naming.

"Holy shit, what happened here?!" Page One exclaimed.

When they reached their destination, they were greeted with quite the sight. Small and massive chunks of Beast Pirates Ships were scattered everywhere throughout the island's shores and shallow parts of the sea. Most of the sand was painted with blood and mostly eaten or rotting corpses.

It didn't take a genius to figure out that a battle went on here and that the Beast Pirates lost horrifically.

"What do you think did this?" Ulti asked, looking at the scene with indifference.

"Your guess is as good as mine, but at least we only have to worry about finding the fruits now," Crow said, looking at the scene sorrowfully.

They may have been pirates, but they were still people with hopes, dreams, and families. They didn't deserve a cruel fate like this.

"Yeah, true...so what do you wanna do with the bodies?" she asked, looking at the Lunarian with worry.

Usually, Ulti would cuss someone out for feeling pity for a bunch of weaklings, but when it came to Crow, she couldn't find it in herself to be a cunt towards him.

The horned girl was deeply aware she was a total bitch toward everyone and had a short temper. Even her brother wasn't safe from her outbursts and harsh treatment.

However, when it came to the Lunarian, she was almost a completely different person. Sure, she was occasionally rude to him and raised her voice at him, but other than that, she treated him like a prince!

So when Ulti saw the sorrow on his face, it greatly crushed her. She wanted to comfort him, but she didn't know how to. She was never good at dealing with emotions or helping people, which shouldn't be much of a surprise considering her environment.

Nonetheless, Ulti wanted to help Crow, so when they returned to Wano, she'd ask Uta for help to be less of a bitch and be more understanding.

"Let's bury them."

Once they finished burying all the bodies, Page One asked.
"So what's the plan?"

Crow thought for a moment. The Lunarian wanted to split up to cover more ground, but at the same time, he worried that whatever killed their men was still on the island, and he didn't want to risk either of the siblings getting killed.

Crow would never forgive himself if that happened. On the other hand, he knew he was being overly paranoid and protective.

The siblings were some of the strongest in the Beast Pirates, with only Kaido, the All-Stars, and two members of the Flying Six surpassing them in strength.

Crow knew they could go against most people without an issue. He just couldn't help but worry.

"We'll split up."

"You sure that's a good idea?" Page asked hesitantly.

"Yeah, especially with the killer possibly still running around the island," Utli said.

"If I'm being frank, I'd prefer not splitting up at all, but we need to find those Devil Fruits ASAP, and the quickest way to do that is by splitting up," Crow argued.

While they didn't like the idea of splitting up, the siblings couldn't refute his argument. They may not be as fast as the Lunarian, but they were still fast enough to cover a lot of ground in a short amount of time in their dinosaur forms, and the island they were on was on the smaller side. If they were lucky, they could find all the Devil Fruits within a few days.
