The Fated Reunion! Save the Captive Fish-Man

"She is rather cute isn't she" Robin said after Nami hit Luffy for being rude about Kokoro "and a bit of an airhead" Anna said "this is my first encounter with a mermaid as well, pardon me but would you be so kind as to lend me some money?" Brook asked walking up to the mermaid "a skeleton!" The girl said shocked "look you scared her!" Sanji said kicking him "so I gotta know how do you poop?" Luffy asked as Sanji kicked him "she doesn't poop!" He said in tears "what a delusional man" Anna said tilting her head as Luffy dragged the starfish into the conversation.

"Talking to fish? Anna can't you do the same?" Luffy asked watching Camie talk to the fish "when did I do that?" Anna asked "back when we were went to get Nami from Arlong, you sent Johnny back in the mouth of a shark thing" Usopp reminded "...I like to think I was ordering them but whatever makes you happy" Anna said with a shrug "look all the fish are coming up" Luffy said "they're scared of the flying fish riders, they won't get too close but they'll show us the way" Camie said "hmm one thing is bugging me, how do we follow fish?" Nami asked "check it out for yourself" Pappag said signaling to the water where the fish created an arrow "I guess fish are more smarter than I give them credit for, they're drawing an arrow in the water" Usopp said "that's just wow awesome" Luffy said "awe any mermaid can do the same thing" Camie said embarrassed "don't be so modest we don't know any better" Luffy said patting her back "I'll go take the helm" Usopp said running to the wheel.

"Hey Zoro" Luffy said as Zoro jumped down the nest "i noticed the sunny setting off, did we finally find a way to fishman island?" Zoro asked walking to Luffy "forget that, check it out it's a real live mermaid her names Camie" Luffy introduced "having weird fantasies?" Anna asked glaring at Zoro angry "she's a mermaid? I've never seen one before" he said "it's gone he erased his memory!" Chopper said amazed "she has a friend who makes real good octopus fritters so we're gonna save him so we can eat" Luffy said "I'm kinda worried, hatchin didn't sound like himself when we talked, I'm afraid they've done something to him" Camie said "he's touch enough to cope he'll handle it, you guys on the other hand were awful quick to offer your help but are you positive you're not over your head on this?" Pappag asked "you kidding?" Luffy reassured "alright but fair warning, these guys aren't the only kidnappers in the area, there's a whole bunch of crews just like em, the sabaody archipelago is a hotspot for kidnapping, human trafficking is big business around here" Pappag said.

"Like slaves? Pretty sick stuff" Sanji said "you'd think since it's right under the hold city mary Geoise there wouldn't be any slave trade but that's quite opposite from the truth" Anna said "what does that mean?" Chopper asked "out of everyone in the world it's the celestial dragons that purchase the most slaves, in fact given the right amount to the government auction houses can hold slave trading" Anna explained "you know so much" Nami pointed out "well I think it was around when I was 6 to 10 I can't remember the exact age I was very close to being sold as a slave, if not for my uncle and a fishman I wouldn't be here" Anna said with a shrug "that's awful" chopper said huggging her leg "thanks but I was young so I don't really remember much" Anna laughed as Pappag continued talking.

"They're in the sky not the sea, look up" Camie said as flying fish hovered over the ship "they really can fly" Usopp said amazed "awesome!" Luffy said "they're our enemy remember!" Zoro reminded "that's...weird" Anna said as Usopp turned the ship "they're dropping bombs" Zoro said drawing his sword. "The flying fish just left?" Chopper asked once the fish were gone "and they were the ones who started the attack" Franky said "it seemed like they received a message, maybe it was an order for them to retreat I can't imagine why though" Robin suggested "those flying fish are cool I wanna ride one" Luffy said excitedly "it could be a trap, maybe they want us to follow them to their leader since they know we came here for Camie friend" Anna suggested "could be true, at least we know they can attack from the sea and the air" Sanji said smocking a cigarette "hey, how about arming the deck with canons sniper Usopp will blow em out of the sky!" Usopp suggested as Franky agreed.

"Hey I see something!" Luffy said "from the looks of it that's the sky fish riders base" Franky said "Camie friend Hacchin is here, let's get moving we gotta save those octopus fritters" Luffy said "hold on guys before you go listen up, be careful the macro gang has managed to capture me over 30 times already" Camie confessed "you get captured way to often! You get eaten too often too" Usopp said as she laughed "that's weird why would anyone want to set up their base around here?" Zoro said "go! Straight ahead!" Luffy said "shouldn't we at least go over the plan again or something?" Usopp asked "you know he won't follow the plan and just do as he pleases" Anna reminded before Camie and Pappag started calling for their friend "am I seeing things or is something in that cage?" Robin asked looking at the cage.

"I'm here I'm fine! There's no need to worry okay" hatchin said reassuring his friends "that voice" Anna said "his shape too, yea I know who he is" Nami said "let's just ask him and get this over with, hey you so how's arlong doing these days?" Sanji asked "huh? Oh not so good actually, him, chew, Kuroobi and all the others got caught by the navy, I was the only one who escaped, now I've given up my life of crime and I'm running an octopus fritters shop, funny how time flies" Hatchan said "ah, he sure is an airhead" Anna said sweat dropping "it's you! There's dumb squid with the swords!" Luffy yelled now realizing his identity "ahhh! They tricked me!" Hatchan said shocked "sigh, I'll sit this one out have fun you guys" Anna said pulling out a lounge chair and a book "yes ma'am" Sanji said making heart eyes.

"All this nonsense because of a wanted poster misunderstanding, I'm not sure who to feel bad for most" Anna said taking her eyes off her book to stare at Duval and Sanji after Duval explained his situation "whether this is a miracle or a tragedy it's entertaining either way" Robin said "You sure stayed out of this one, how do you feel having us deal with these guys?!" Nami asked irritated "I read 6 pages, feels great" Anna said "I'll kill you!" Nami yelled as Sanji got dragged into the water.
