We see Ryuto on shank's ship tuning his sword howler Marco flies into the distance
*then it's flashback time'
They find out that Yamato isn't going with them
Luffy: what? You're not gonna come with us? We were gonna be pirates together!
Ryo is sitting and he looks pouty: yeah seriously! Why do you have to say here anyway! We could be out on the open sea it'd be such fun!
Yamato: you felt what happened back there didn't you? When that woodsman attacked
They remember ryokugyu destroying all of the Akazaya
Yamato: we were on the verge of defeat when someone's Haki saved this country, kaido was gone but other enemies will target us and now that I know that, I'd go crazy if I left, I can't have a fun adventure while I'm worried about my friends back home, you'd feel the same way right?
Ryo growls still being annoyed
Yamato: but I still want to be apart of your crew! Make me an honorary member
Luffy: hmm I guess I understand, that might be good actually if you stay in the land of wano, it'll be in good hands, I'll leave it too you, keep momo safe
Yamato is confident
Ryo: Tch,
Yamato crouches down and ruffles Ryo's hair
Yamato: oh come on don't be like that, I promise I'll be on your crew as soon as I can plus didn't I already explain it too you
*flashback within a flashback*
Yamato: Ryo, I know you don't want to hear this, but I'm going to stay in the land of wano, to protect it
Ryo looks saddened and sighs
Ryo: Really? I thought you wanted to go out to sea, you know with me
Yamato nods: believe me I do, I really do
Ryo: then why don't you?
Yamato: because wano needs me, especially our new shogun, if I leave then wano will have barley anyone strong enough to protect it
Ryo: tch, yeah I get it, I like this country and I want to see it prosper but isn't there anything way
Yamato looks Ryo in the eye and sighs
Yamato: I want to go out to sea with you Ryo, I really really do, the thought of travelling the world with you is something I've been dreaming of for years but I need to protect my home, come on tell you understand
Ryo: yeah..I do, believe me not a day goes by I don't worry about dad or mom or the bandits back on dawn island, so I do get it
Yamato: come on it won't be long this time, trust me as soon as I'm ready, I'll make the call and join your crew
Ryo: alright I guess I can accept it, 'Ryo smirks' just don't keep me waiting too long, ok Raikou
Yamato laughs and then pulls Ryo into a kiss and they stay like that for a while
*flashback over*
Now to the other flashback
Ryo: yeah I know
Yamato: good, I've got this
Marco flies over
Marco: Hey strawhat, hey Ryo!
Luffy: hey Marco!
Ryo: what's up bro
Marco: there's a ship nearby that's going my way, so I'm taking off, it's been a real adventure
