The pirate group had departed from Florian Triangle a few days and now they came to Red Line. The tall Red Line looks impassable and the archaeologist found the Lunarians staring at the Red Line.

Aruna PoV

"What's wrong Aruna-san?"

"They took the land from us. There used to be a Kingdom of Gods where we Lunarians lived before Mary Geoise was there."

Robin just patted my back to comfort me. The woman is the same as the Lunarians, she was also the only survivor of Ohara, so of course she knew her feelings very well.

"Maybe we can use our Shark Submerge to search for any sign of Fish-Man Island." So Luffy, Robin, and Brook went down to the sea using the submerge. But after they returned, they reported they found nothing, only a Sea King. Luffy defeated it easily and two figures were spotted out from the Sea King.

These two figures were a starfish and a mermaid. The mermaid introduced herself as Camie and the starfish named Pappag.

"Wow, this is the first time I see a mermaid," Zoro said.

"Hey did you just forget Kokoro was also a mermaid?" I questioned Zoro. But it seems he just ignored my question and chose to erase the memory.

Camie then decided to call her other friend, Hatchan but realised the one who picked up the call was not him. "Eh!! You're no Hatchan?!" Camie shouted with widened eyes.

"We have captured your octopus friend and we will sell him into slavery." The one from the other side said. Camie begged us help to save her friend and we agreed with it.

Camie used her ability to talk with the fishes and they navigated us to where Hatchan was. The ship came to Grove 44 of the island, they had been told that Hatchan was held at the base of Flying Fish Riders. Before we came, one of the men had attacked us but I just used my flame to make him ablaze but not dead.

We arrived at their base, and the leader who was wearing an iron mask said, "I want to kill the man who had destroyed my life." I noticed Nami and Zoro were staring at the octopus.

'Seems like they knew him before. Are they friends?'

Camie was happy that they had known Hatchan but Zoro stated, "We are enemies, not friends." And Nami turned her head away. Camie was sad after hearing this and Pappag was also angry and they jumped into the water but they were captured again.

After that Nami said, "We should save Camie and Pappag since after all, they are our friends." All of us got readied to fight and the leader ordered more Flying Fish Riders to attack us.

"Let's end this quickly, shall we? Guys get ready to dodge!" I said while imbuing my flame on my katana. "Oh gosh, Aruna is going to attack! Run!" Usopp said while fleeing with Nami and Chopper.

 "Oh gosh, Aruna is going to attack! Run!" Usopp said while fleeing with Nami and Chopper

And now, the Flying Fish Riders had surrendered and they kneeled in front of us. The leader, Duval revealed his face and it looked the same as Sanji's wanted poster.

"Because of this, I was chased by the marines and bounty hunters! So I had to wear the mask to prevent anybody from seeing me!" He shouted at Sanji.

Brook laughed out loudly at the ground seeing his face. I covered my mouth from laughing with my hand and used my wings to hide myself. 'That's hilarious!' After we calmed down, Sanji argued, "You could just change your appearance all this time!"

"Oh, why didn't I think about that!" Duval and the riders finally realized that. Sanji beat him up, "I had enough of this." Duval then ordered the riders to trap Sanji in the fishing net and drag him into the sea.

But he was saved by Camie and jumped out of the water. We all returned to Sunny and Franky used the secret weapon, Chicken Voyage, and made the ship go in reverse.

"There's is also a secret compartment inside the prowl of Sunny. Then a cannon revealed within the mouth of Sunny's figurehead. Usopp aimed and fired at the riders. Duval was angry that Sanji had made it out alive, so he unleashed his bison onto Luffy.

Somehow Luffy makes the bison drop his rider and faint on the ground. This surprised everyone including Luffy.

"Oh, Luffy you have Conquerer Haki!" I exclaimed excitedly.

"Haki, what's that?"

"Ummm, it's complicated to explain. But there are three types of Haki and the one you used just now is Conquerer Haki. Only this is a rare Haki that one in several million is born with this, the other two can obtain by training." I tried to explain simply so my captain would understand.

Luffy just tilted his head to the side and still had no idea what I was talking about. "Never mind. You will learn this in the future. I can teach you if you want, I had three types of Haki also." I said proudly.

At this time Sanji had back to the ship and he said he wanted to take care of the rest. So he attacked Duval in his face.

We heading to the Sabaody Archipelago. We also had a takoyaki party with Hatchan cooking.

"Yummy!" I said.

Hatchan tentatively asks Nami, "Nami, did you like it?"

"I haven't forgiven you yet, but I like your takoyaki nonetheless."

We enjoyed the takoyaki until Hatchan collapsed onto the floor as he could not keep up with our captain's starving.

Suddenly, Duval approached us again but this time his face had changed. He expressed his attitude to fit his beauty. He also gave us a den den mushi, saying that if we needed anything we could call him. He also mentioned that they had changed their gang's name to Rosy Life Riders before he left.
