Chapter 5 | "IT'S ME, ACE!"

The moment when the sea seemed to rumble, followed by a familiar feeling of chill unnaturally seeping into the air, Luffy knew that they've finally arrived.

And already knowing how they would survive the tsunami, Luffy kept calm even when a gigantic wave emerged in front of the ship. She knew that Jinbe could handle it because they've tackled — or would've tackled — catastrophes that were much more dire than a single tsunami in the New World.

Though, most of the passengers didn't seem to share her sentiment, as they all outright panicked and protested against riding up the wave, even when Jinbe — a master of fishman karate and a literal fishman who probably knew more about the sea than any of this lot — was the one who suggested the notion. They were starting to get a bit annoying with all the frantic yells and such, which is why Luffy was relieved when Crocodile intervened (yes, she was relieved because of Crocodile).

"Are you all a bunch amateurs?" Crocodile asked in distaste, his low voice somehow managing to pierce through the shouts as well as the sound of rushing water all around, "If we turn around now, we'll take the wave on the side of the ship and capsize. There is no other option."

"He's right." Jinbe agreed from behind the wheel, "Now hang on tight so you don't get washed off by the big wave!!"

As soon as Jinbe got the ship onto the wave, it quickly froze before the ship could fall back into its trajectory, keeping them safe for a short reprieve.

Luffy stepped onto the ship's bow and gazed downwards, where she knew the war was taking place. Only she couldn't see it as they were well above the clouds at the moment.

Purupurupurupurupuru!

This time, there was a Den Den announcement by the Navy.

"Attention ships and soldiers! The target is TOTTZ. Change the line and make the shift to operation 3. Advance the preparation! When you are all set, we move the schedule forward and execute Ace immediately. That is all."

"Well, that's my cue." Luffy said as she jogged towards the edge of the glacier. She then turned slightly towards the ship and gave them a grin, "I'll see you all down below."

Then she jumped.

There was a moment of silence as they registered what they'd just witnessed before most of them went into a frenzy. It was unclear who started it, but they all followed her down the path — albeit not quite a unanimous desicion as Ivankov was the one to break the ice and force all of the other to fall alongside him.

The frightened screams of the inmates put a pause to the battefield as the Marines and Whitebeard Pirates alike looked up to see what the fuss was all about.

Luffy, standing upright as she fell, grinned when she made eye contact with her brother, who seemed horrified at the scene. Taking a deep, forceful breath, Luffy shouted her lungs out.

"IT'S ME, ACE!"

Her grin widened even as his eyes grew rounder.

"I'LL SAVE YOU NOW!!"

When they finally closed in onto the icy sea, what happened next was something nobody could ever comprehend. Luffy, Jinbe, Crocodile, the inmates, and even the Navy Ship somehow... bounced on the frigid ice and landed safely on the ground. The inmates were all too preoccupied by the fact that they survived the fall to question the reality of it, while the ones in the battlefield were too far to clearly see the ongoings through all the dust and debris flying around.
