Everytime you post something I'm amazed and inspired haha I wish I could have more spare time to be able to write all the words that come to my mind when I see your fanarts. Again, thank you!)

Laughs and whistling, dice and cards noises, clapping and stamping feet against the wooden deck for accompany the music, all of that was taken away by the soft marine wind as the sun was setting, letting his last rays enlighten the sky with his fire-like colours and reflect on the small salted waves which were gently colliding onto the galleon's hull.

All the members of the crew were so busy playing and dancing that they weren't paying attention to what was surrounding them. All? No.

One pirate wearing her long violet hair in a long plait under her hat uncorked a bottle of rum on her own. Her boots were as shiny as her sword blade hanging at her belt along with a knife and a pistol. She usually never took all of her stuff off in order to turn people attention away from her feminine curves she was hiding as best as she could underneath her white shirt, black trousers and heavy coat. Bringing the bottle to her full lips, her elbows were on the edge of the galleon and her back faced the rest of the crew.

It had already been several days since the Tenseigan, a huge and impressive pirate ship, was drifting across the Kiri sea towards Konoha and at every early evenings, Hinata couldn't help but admire the nature's beauty. Games and dance weren't her forte but, the horizon was something that continued to always push her far away from the land and to always pull her close to freedom.

But, it already had been a few years since she felt that feeling. Indeed, if it was up to her, she would be traveling the seas with her ship so famous that sea travellers would wet their pants at the sight of her flag and crew under her orders. Unfortunately, when she had felt she was ready to leave where she used to live with her previous crew, she realised that her captain had stole her tresor from her. The little goods she had had disappeared and him with it. Since that day, Hinata felt like herself was chained to him and dreamt of only one thing: to find the most formidable and so the most wanted pirate, known as Kyubi.

Fortunately, after months hidden among differents crews to quietly continue her researches, she had finally found him. Kyubi was said to have been caught in a whorehouse at Kiri by Toneri Otsutsuki who wanted to deliver him to Queen Kagura in exchange of a letter of marque. As soon as that information was heard by Hinata, she crossdressed to cover her presence and in doing so to prevent that the one she was following could escape. She had to be strategic, that thief was cunning, she had to give him credits for that.

But now her whole plan was in motion, she will soon discover if the rumors were true. A smile stretch her mouth, adrenaline squeezed her stomach and hope to finally take back her life made her heart throb.
