Having Vivi in Faythe's tight embrace, made it very secure for her as she and all the crew watched their Captain get yanked towards the sand man.

"GUYS! MAKE SURE TO GET TO GET HER SAFE!" Luffy yelled as loud as he could, "GET VIVI TO THE PALACE!"

"LUFFY WATCH OUT!"

"THERE'S 2 OF 'EM!"

Faythe kept her gaze forward as she searched Luffy's face of any hesitance or fear. Her lips unconsciously lifted as she only saw the large smile on his face as he sent them on their way. She glanced at Zoro who also couldn't help but grin.

"You heard Cap, Zoro! Your in charge! What are we gonna do!" Faythe lifted one of her wings and patted his shoulder. He glanced down at her and nodded full of determination as he turned towards the crew, giving out orders.

"CHOPPER! KEEP THIS CRAB HEADING FOR ALUBARNA!"

"G-GOT IT!" Chopper squeaked nervously.

"Wait, what!? You're just gonna leave him behind!?" Usopp freaked out for a bit.

"LUFFY!" Vivi shouted again worried for Luffy. Faythe kept her grip on the Princess firm so she doesn't get any Ideas of jumping off and be naïve.

"Vivi! It's fine! Just focus on getting to Alubarna!" Faythe wrapped her wings around the girl protectively.

"If anything, we should feel sorry for Crocodile!" Nami added with a smirk, "There hasn't been a single person to piss off Luffy and get away with it!"

"You can say that again!" Faythe laughed out.

"Listen up, Vivi." Zoro sat beside Vivi as he called her, "Luffy will hold down Crocodile here. When the rebels decided to march on to the capital, the time limit for this country's lifespan was set. This country will fall once the rebels clash with the royalists! If you're the only hope there is of stopping all that... Then you have to survive no matter what! So no matter what happens to any of us here... YOU HAVE TO CONTINUE ON!"

"But..." Vivi stilled looked reluctant as she gazed back seeing Luffy land awkwardly in the sand.

"Vivi... This is a fight that you set up..." Sanji spoke up and got up from his seat, "You left your country for several years, to go up against an organization you new almost nothing about..." Sanji couldn't help but chuckle, "But... Don't you think that you're fighting alone anymore..." He finished as he walked back her and sat up in the front.

"V-V-V-V-Vivi! D-D-D-D-D-Don't... Don't you... Don't you worry! I'll..." Usopp was trying his best trying to make an amazing speech like the other two but was shoved away by Faythe as she gave a hug from behind to Vivi.

"This whole thing will end today... Don't worry... I'll be there to protect you." Faythe placed her chin comfortably on the Princess' shoulder, "I always keep my promises."

Vivi face parted for a moment before leaning forward on the crab towards Luffy's direction, "LUFFY!!"

"WE'LL BE WAITING FOR YOU, AT ALUBARNA!"

Luffy's face was hard to see but with Faythe's vision, she could make out the wide grin form on his face.

"ALRIGHT!" He screamed back.

While the crew got a good distance from Rainbase they noticed that a large sandstorm brewed in the city. They knew instantly it was Crocodile.

But they knew they couldn't worry about that right now, they had bigger problems.

And right now they were all trying to calm themselves from the future battles awaiting them.
