Sabaody Archipelago, First Half of Grandline.

...

...

On an island west of the archipelago, a man with green hair stood in front of the sea, gazing at a distant red mountain. It was none other than Roronoa Zoro, looking in that direction, deep in thought.

"Damn, how can they get lost like that?" he grumbled, thinking his crew was following him, but they had somehow lost their way without him realizing. Ironically, it was he who had gotten lost.

"Damn, I'm going to have to go back," Zoro commented, having no other choice but to return the way he had come.

Meanwhile, elsewhere, "Amazing, how much does this model cost?" Yamato murmured, looking at men selling fish-motorcycles with Hachi by his side, who seemed a bit lost.

The place was crowded as the man was renting out the fish, they recognized the straw hats, especially Yamato for being Kaido's daughter and having a bounty of 600 million. Some people were wary of Hachi for being a fish-man, but had to respect him, after all, he was part of an important crew.

"Damn, if we could capture him..." one man spoke while keeping his gaze on Hachi, who might even have heard him; he wasn't hiding, after all Luffy had said he would never need to do that again while under his flag and would destroy anyone who messed with him.

"Are you an idiot? He's with Kaido's daughter... And you think we can mess with that group?" another whispered to the first.

"But did you see how much they offered for that mermaid they captured yesterday?" the first man spoke again and Hachi immediately turned surprised towards those men.

"But..." the man was going to continue, but suddenly felt a blade at his throat, catching everyone by surprise, as Hachi had several swords drawn from their sheaths, placing his swords on the necks of 4 men at the same time, appearing in front of the man.

"Nee... Tell me now..." he said threateningly. "What were you saying?" Hachi scared the men as soon as they realized their situation.

"We only said that a mermaid was captured yesterday..." one of the men said, swallowing hard.

"Where is she?" Hachi asked again. While Yamato was about to mount her bike, she noticed the strange situation.

"Any problem, Hachi?" she asked from afar.

But Hachi did not care to answer her, still looking at the man with the same deadly gaze. "Where is she being auctioned?" and he spoke, still holding the sword as if about to kill the man.

"She's being auctioned at one of the most important auctions in the lawless area, the Joker auction!" the man spoke with evident fear.

"I believe I know where that auction is..." Hachi seemed thoughtful.

Yamato approached at this moment. "Any problem?" He was wondering why Hachi's hostility, as he hadn't even answered her.

"Nee... There's a mermaid being auctioned and I need to stop it," Hachi spoke fiercely.

"A mermaid," Yamato murmured, and immediately had a fierce look. "Alright, let's solve this!" she spoke, and the men looked somewhat surprised at that.

"I wouldn't do that! I heard there will be Tenryuubitos at the site. Are you guys crazy?" the man spoke immediately, making Hachi frown.

Meanwhile, Yamato didn't seem too concerned, just thoughtful. "It doesn't matter, let's go." She suddenly spoke and grabbed Hachi by the clothes and threw him on top of her bike.
