Ryukyu POV:

Ever since the joining of the Green Demon Pirates, I had put myself to teaching everyone that I could Haki so we could attain success in the future. "Alright. Let's try this again, Nejire."

"Right." Currently, I am attempting to help Nejire learn Observation Haki in order to get her on par with myself. This training consists of her dodging at least 50 of my hits with a large wodden paddle by sensing my attacks. Each one will be less and less for her to have to feel my pressence. She's gotten up to 38 before losing her focus, but I know she'll be able to do it.

"*whoosh* One. *whoosh* Two. *whoosh* Three." 'The fight with Jack, the battle with CP-0, the final exams, Doflamingo's antics and us pushing him to desire acting against us. If we hope to stand a chance against people like this, we'll have to get stronger. And to do that, we'll need to upkeep our base level.' I continued to think of this as Nejire had gotten to 27 attacks by me before tripping on something and falling face first before I had smacked the back of her head.

"Oww! That's mean! I fell and you took advantage of that."

"And? Remember. The people we face won't look away from an opening. It's your job to make sure that opening is well protected even during the worst case scenario. We're done for the day anyway. We have a task we need to accomplish."

"Ok. And what's that?" Nejire asked as she got on her feet pulling the blindfold off to show the multiple bumps on her head from our training.

"Recently, our captain and I have obtained a mission. We must find and capture Daz Bones and Crocodile. In order to find them, we'll need to attain information. But finding them will be rather difficult."

"So how are we gonna find them then?"

"I have informants inside the pirate world." We walked out of my agency and began heading down the street.

"Ryukyu. Who's your informant? Is it a famous pirate? Are they strong? Is their bounty higher than yours and Midoriya's? C'mon! I wanna know!"

"Patience. We are going somewhere rather dangerous in which I must ask you to be careful. You ask the wrong thing to these people and you could die. Most pirates aren't exactly the most 'friendly' type."

We arrived at a door leading down underground. I had opened it and led us down a corridor. Once here, we knocked on it for the face of a woman to look down at us. "Have you come for sweet or sour?"

"Sweet with a touch of sour to it." The door opened fully for us to walk into what seemed to be an underground paradise for sweet tooth fans. Many sang and danced merry songs with accordions playing. It wasn't the type of place I'd expect to see here of all places. I turned to the woman who let us in for her to glare down at us.

"What business does a Warlord have with our family? If you're here to bring us in, then you've got another thing coming."

"I'm just here to get some information that your brother Katakuri might have. I'm not here to cause waves, Custard. Now, would you mind relaying a message to him? Tell him, Ryuko is here to claim a favor he owes me."

Custard scoffed at me before walking away. Nejire and I had waited for a few moments with the woman coming back looking irritated. "You can go in. Big bro's in the room all the way down to the left. But the second he tells me to, I won't hesitate to slice your heads off your necks. YOU HEAR ME!?"

"Noted." We walked off with a bunch of Charlottes glaring at us.

"Hey, Ryukyu. Where are we?"

"An underground pirate ring owned by the Charlotte Family. More commonly known as the Big Mom Pirates. The woman we just met was Custard. One of Big Mom's daughters."
