The Demon of the Sea(One Piece x Oc)

Chapter 81

On the balcony of Johnathan's office some marines come bringing chairs for them to sit.

Shephard: No! Not my special pirate subjugation squad!

Johnathan: They slipped off your hook aye, Major Shephard?

Shephard: I had them blasted. They got lucky that's all. Besides you're the commander of this 2-bit fortress if they escape that's entirely your fault.

Johnathan: Entirely mine? Ok, but be sure to mention how a certain someone kept interfering with my plans in your report to HQ.

Shephard: Err...

Johnathan: These Straw Hat Pirates they're exactly the way Admiral Akainu described them. Inventive and bold. And as strange as that sounds, they've proven Navarone is still an effective base. Like a willy fish they've taken the bait, put up a fight, and broken the line a few times. Even the wiliest fish can be hooked though. It just takes patience. With that on our side there's only one place they'll end up. Caught.

His transponder snail starts to ring and when he answers it it's one of the sergeants calling.

Johnathan: Sergeant, you're in place? Good, standby until further orders.

Shephard: Hold on, are you just going to sit back and let those pirate's escape?!

Johnathan: Don't worry Major, this game is about to end. It's almost time for checkmate.

Shephard: What?

Johnanthan: Those pirates are as good as caught. In fact, the 9 pm net will scoop them up pretty soon.

Shephard: Net? What net and what's this 9 pm business you're talking about?

Johnathan: I can't tell you just yet. It'll ruin the surprise.

Through the water of Navarone the Going Merry sails towards the Sea Gate being chased by multiple Warships.

Luffy: Guys I can't wait to get outta here can you?!

Zoro: Well, our navigator doesn't feel the same way. Nami's not so happy.

Usopp: I sure don't like the sound of that.

Chopper: Look! Marine Warships and they're heading right for us!!

The Warships then raise their sails stopping their pursuit.

Chopper: Hey wait. It looks like they're stopping.

Nami: They dropped their anchors.

Zoro: I guess they gave up.

Usopp: Of course they did. They'll never catch up.

Zero: Never took that commander for a quitter. Man, how boring.

Robin: Why aren't they firing on us at least?

Usopp: Oh no have they set another trap?

Nami: That's what's worrying me. I don't know.

Sanji: Man, Nami's even beautiful when she's worried.

With all the Warships having stopped and dropped anchor Drake reports in to Johnathan:

Drake: Commander, the time has finally come sir.

Johnathan: Right. Just maintain your position.

Shephard: Maintain?! That's Drake, isn't it? Then order him to pursue those pirates this instant! They can't just drop ancho and sit there like lumps!
