Chapter Size: 1800 Words.]
Third Person POV

Grand Line.

...

...

While the world reacted one way, Marineford finally managed to calm things down, but the atmosphere was somber. Sengoku looked frustrated at what remained of the Marine headquarters.

Sailors seemed paralyzed as they looked at the trail of destruction. Some, by some luck, had been unconscious since the Straw Hat crew unleashed their Conqueror's Haki and were not crushed by the destruction while unconscious.

They finally woke up, still remembering the arrival of the Straw Hats as if it was just a second ago. They were now facing the current reality of the Marine situation.

"Hey, hey... What happened here..." The sailor trembled as he surveyed the area.

"How could this happen..." The sailor trembled, viewing the situation.

The other sailors who had witnessed all the chaos wore dejected expressions. Garp emerged from among some rocks, tossing them aside as he looked grimly after being punched by his son.

"We don't have time to lament the navy's terrible defeat... we need to start rescuing those who need help and conduct damage control." Garp approached Sengoku, continuously clenching his teeth as he viewed Marineford.

"You're right." Sengoku finally spoke, before starting to issue a command that resonated throughout Marineford. "Everyone, take care of all the injured sailors and I want reports of all our losses!!!" He exclaimed.

Officers began to issue orders as sailors helped each other, rescuing sailors hanging from cliffs, others trapped in rubble, or even on top of structures that Luffy had created with his body falling to the ground.

This continued for a while as Sengoku saw Kuzan approaching, the only admiral well, after all, Kizaru was being dragged injured but still alive, the worst of all was Akainu who lost an arm while fighting the Straw Hat alone.

"My lord... here's the report..." An officer approached with the papers after surveying the entire field. The situation was much worse than they had imagined... "40,000 navy soldiers were killed... besides Kuzan being the only admiral not down, all the Shichibukai were defeated except for two, Mihawk had stopped acting after his fight with Zoro while Hancock had fled with the pirates..." He murmured.

Mihawk had left Marineford without saying anything a moment before and didn't respond to any questions, Kuma, Moria were being carried unconscious, while the worst was Doflamingo. Being carried dead by the sailors.

"From the World Government team... 2 CP0 members are dead... Kong is also defeated... along with another 4 tenryuubitos..." He continued reading the report while a group was rescuing them. "Furthermore... Monkey D. Luffy killed a tenryuubito, still having 6 under his custody. Squard killed another after being defeated by the Straw Hats..." He finished with frustration, this was an unprecedented scandal in this era, not even Gol D. Roger had done such a thing.

Garp said nothing... even more frustrated by his granddaughter now becoming a pirate, but relieved inside that Ace, Luffy, and Lucy were still alive, despite all the destruction they caused in this war.

"And Blackbeard disappeared along with his crew and the prisoners he managed to get from Impel Down... that bastard..." Sengoku murmured, realizing there was no more sign of his crew since Marineford began to fall...

"Fleet admiral!" An officer came running to him with a den den mushi. "A call from Mary Geoise!" The man spoke.

Sengoku sighed. "That was expected..." he spoke, picking up the den den mushi.

"Sengoku..." The somber voices of the elders were heard, Sengoku even had to swallow hard, he had never heard this tone from them, they must be enraged.

"Yes..." Sengoku responded cautiously.

"Come to Mary Geoise immediately, we need to talk." They spoke in the same tone, leaving no room for discussion as he simply nodded.

"Kuzan, I want you to be responsible for organizing Marineford. I am going to the holy land." Sengoku spoke at the end, he had to go there immediately as he leapt into the air and left the sailors taking care of all the damage.

Sengoku could even see the fleet following through the sea as he looked angrily at those ships, but what more could he do, he just turned his face and followed his destiny.

Luffy on the deck, looked up at the sky with recognizing eyes, his thoughts interrupted as crew members started speaking beside him.

"Give me that loot!" Zoro complained as Hachi handed him a bottle.

"I killed a Shichibukai... what else did you do, just fought a weaker Tenryuubito than my opponent." Lami started arguing with Reiju.

"Tsk. Don't get cocky because of that. I defeated my opponent much faster than you!" Reiju snarled.

"That's because he was weaker than mine, he had the power of plasma, very similar to Kizaru's fruit." She scoffed.

"HEY, can you two stop fighting, shouldn't you be taking care of Luffy and the others!!" Vivi approached talking to Reiju, while she went over to Luffy still bandaged on the ground while all his mates were celebrating, only Baby-5 was beside him fanning him with a fan with a pleased face.

"How are you..." She approached her husband.

"I'm getting better... but I want some alcohol too." Luffy didn't hesitate to ask.

"You want alcohol!! You need to rest!" Nojiko, who was beside him, spoke in a dissatisfied tone.

"You know that won't stop me from drinking either." Luffy spoke.

"Do you want some hormones, Straw Hat-Boy?" Ivankov approached, and Luffy looked strangely at him.

"No thanks... I'd rather stay away from your hormones." Luffy had a big bias against putting hormones in his body... he didn't trust that method much and preferred to stay in that state.

"You know, but it's a pity your father didn't come to talk to you. I thought he would appear on the ship." Ivankov couldn't help commenting.

"You know he's a busy man." Luffy commented and looked at the group. "Shirahoshi, can you lift me up for a moment?" Luffy spoke while Shirahoshi, who was drinking a huge mug of orange juice made by Nami, occupying most of the deck with her tail to the outside, looked at him and nodded.

Luffy was lifted by the two palms of her hands in that state as Shirahoshi turned to the entire crew, everyone looking at their captain all bandaged up.

"Guys..." Luffy started while Yamato, Zoro, Kuina, Shirahoshi, Usopp, Lami, Reiju, Nami, Nojiko, Alvida, Vivi, Robin, Hachi, Baby-5, Enel, Jimbei, Hancock Ivankov, Crocodile, Mr. 1, and his group, Lucy and Ace who were also celebrating on the ship. Chopper, Chouchou, Hugo were in a corner passed out, but already cared for by Lami.

"HEY, get us out of here!!!" The voice of the Tenryuubitos was heard while they were still trapped in the cell.

"Enel." Luffy requested.

Enel nodded and struck them with lightning, making them scream in pain, Luffy had no mercy, while they finally quieted down for him to give a small speech. "Hurting false gods... I like this." Enel murmured, satisfied with the suffering of those people.

"I wanted to say that we got exactly what we wanted at this moment, we marked the world with our flag, now everyone recognizes us as a force in the sea, our crew now flaunts fame and power, and when we enter the New World, nothing can stop us." Luffy spoke to everyone while most nodded.

"However... we're not going to do that now." He began, leaving many surprised. "We've become powerful, but you saw what the World Government can do... we faced an elder and almost lost, there are still 4 of them in Merry Geoise and many Holy Knights we faced. And I assure you... the government has much more hidden power, while they may be in a delicate situation now... but when they recover, they will attack, so I want everyone to become even stronger. Because when we find the One Piece, the whole world will turn against us and they won't spare any effort to destroy us!" Luffy exclaimed while everyone looked more serious.

"One Piece... Captain?" Hugo raised his voice waking up at this moment. "Sounds great!" He said with a bruised smile.

"Woollfff!" Chouchou barked too.

"A new adventure?" Chopper also woke up at that moment, being in the same state as Luffy, unable to move much.

"One Piece?! Of course, the one who will find it will be Pops!" Ace crossed his arms and exclaimed.

Luffy looked at the other ships while seeing everyone celebrating there, Moby Dick was also in celebration, but another ship approaching them caught his attention, while Luffy cracked a small smile seeing Shanks appearing.

"Luffy, I'm heading to my ship, you'll have to come there when you're better!" Ace declared, cutting through Luffy's thoughts as he nodded.

"Alright, tell your old man I want a rematch with him." He said with a smile.

"You're not in any state for that, damn it!" Lami exclaimed with a scowl.

Ace just smiled and leaped into the air, transforming into a line of flames while launching other explosive flames into the sky, celebrating as all the pirates watched excitedly.

"Ace!!!" Everyone exclaimed, watching him slice through the sky before landing on the Moby Dick.

"Ace!!" All the commanders and their subordinates quickly exclaimed as they greeted their old mate.

"Guys!!" Ace exclaimed, hugging everyone excitedly. He stopped and looked at his father a bit better after Marco gave him some assistance.

"Gurarara!" Whitebeard laughed seeing his son, and finally smiled. "Good to see you back, kid."

"Pops!" He said, with a few tears running down his eyes.

"Don't cry, now let's celebrate!" Whitebeard declared.

"Yes!!!" The crew jumped excitedly.

But Whitebeard wasn't finished yet. "However... there's someone approaching that we need to take care of first..." He spoke and looked ahead as another Yonkou's ship approached.

"Luuuuuufyyyyyyy!!!!" Lucy finally noticed while pointing ahead, stunned. "Shanks is here?!" She exclaimed in disbelief.

Everyone looked at the ship called Black Pearl, with curious glances. "Wait!! Shanks... the Red-Haired?!" Nojiko exclaimed, surprised.

"Yes... but don't worry, he's not here to do harm... he's an old acquaintance, some of you still don't know, but the one who gave me this hat... it was him." Luffy declared, surprising those who had joined after they entered the Grand Line, since Luffy hadn't shared that fact yet.

"Shirahoshi, move me forward." Luffy requested as Shirahoshi delicately placed Luffy at the front of the ship.

He took a deep breath before releasing a statement that resonated across all the ships there. "SHANNNNNKKKKSSSS, YOU FINALLY SHOWED UP, YOU BASTARD, NOW WE'LL FIGHT TO THE DEATH!" He exclaimed, leaving everyone stunned; without the power of his devil fruit, he had to shout, but his words made his crew fall to the ground the next moment.

"WHAT'S THIS ALL OF A SUDDEN?!" They exclaimed.

Meanwhile, at the prow of the Red Force, Shanks looked ahead, cracking a smile at this moment.
