Dark Justice Returned

It took a week and a few days to finally arrive at the beautiful Water 7 island. It took you awhile to remember the route to go on, for you haven't been here in years. Not since you were a marine. Or rather...not quite a marine. You really risked coming here straight after that happened.

You sighed at the thought.

It's pretty dangerous of you to come here in general, for the island was connected to Enies Lobby from the water train. But you just felt like you should visit here for some odd reason unbeknownst to you. You just follow your gut and it hasn't steered you wrong yet, despite everything. The city was beautiful anyways, with its friendly citizens that called to you and complimented you as you walked past the villas or small cafes through the sidewalks available in the water city after you docked your raft by the rocky shores of the island.

Who knows though? Perhaps you can find a worthy opponent in this island, even though it wasn't likely. You find more opponents in the New World. Dangerous although they may be, Shanks and Mihawk tried to warn you to watch yourself during those seas since you travel alone and your talent of getting sucked into precarious situations. You think you're fine though, you're still here after all!

And if you nearly drowned from getting basically pulverized, than you won't mention it! It was a stupid sort of match anyways...

But seriously, all of those crazy people are strong, and all you want to challenge. To become the strongest woman in the world, you have to beat the strongest after all. Unfortunately, you're still far away from your goal. Even with your years of training with your signature buster sword. You touched the hilt of Black Heaven's Judgement in silence, your thoughts slowly coming to a standstill as you thought of your father. You always wondered to yourself if he was still alive. And where he was. From what you've gathered, he's definitely alive—at least you think so.

You wanted to meet him.

The father you never had. The one who you were always compared to by your mother. How you looked, how you act, it was all like your father. At least from what your mother told you, with a small fond smile on her kind face as she spoke about her lover and your father. Back in simpler times within your quaint house in the outskirts of Loguetown, hidden by the foliage of trees and when you could call it home.

You felt your heart clench, and began to hum the song your mother sang to you when you were young and she was still alive. You walking around the bustling streets of the colorful island. An island who welcomed pirates and the like, not caring much about it as they tried to capture your attention with their Mizu Mizu style food.

You loved this song.

It was called Bink's Sake. You didn't get the chance to sing it with Shanks and the others at the party like they always do this time. The song was filled with sounds of adventure, and it sounded so uplifting and amazing to you each time. You always remembered your kind mother when she sang or hummed it.

An unconscious small smile appeared on your face at the thought.

You suddenly stopped walking as you glanced around you, noticing you were a bit lost. You scratched your scarred cheek in thought, only to feel a "Coo!" over your head. Your eyes narrowed.

That sound...

You glanced up to find a white pigeon land on your shoulder, familiar beady eyes looking at you in thought as it tilted its feathered head.

Wait...

A challenge!

You blanched.

When a hand suddenly came on your other shoulder, you immediately jumped away you already taking out the eager hissing Karasu in the air with narrowed eyes as you separated yourself from the person who grabbed you. Not caring about how the bird fluttered its wings and cooed and went back to his master's shoulders. Or the gasps of the citizens around you as they saw your weapon out. Only having your eyes on a familiar...comrade.
