"Where are we going?" You asked, bouncing on your feet, like the child you were. "Somewhere." Erin said coldly. You tried to grab the log pose, but Erin held it high up in the sky, while pushing you down with the other arm. You let out a protesting whine, as his hand covered your mouth and nose in a very uncomfortable manner. "mmmfpppfff!" You said. (Translation: I can play dirty too!) So you kicked against his shinbone.

While he jumped around, cursing while holding his leg, you looked more than triumphantly. "Hmm...Water 7. Interesting." You murmured while swirling the log pose between your fingers. "What are you doing?" Avis, Erin's aunt and your teacher, came down from the upper deck. You opened your mouth to answer, but Erin was faster. "She kicked my leg!" He cried. "Oh? Is that so?" You put your hand on your hip, looking extremely indignantly. "If you say so, you should also tell her that you put your hand into my face!" You sighed, trying to compose yourself. "Besides, Is that how a Vice-Admiral should behave? I expected at least a bit of dignity from the Navy!" Eri n sputtered back, not finding words so fast in his anger. "You...you... Liar!" He yelled. Avis frowned. "I think (Y/N) has point here. You should really start to act like an adult by now." She said. Disapproving glare from her. Outsticking tongue from you. Erin gave up, and started hitting his head against the mast, surrounded by a dark, depressing aura.

"Wait, what are you doing? Water 7 is that way!" You said to your teacher. "I know. We just make a detour to pick some things up." You looked at her questioningly. "We have to replace your whip, don't we?" You looked down at your waist, seeing the rope you used as replacement. "We indeed have to. Someone burned it to ashes." Venom covered your words, as you thought back at that day. It had been almost two months since then, but your mind wandered often back, every second you weren't occupied. The last thing you thought about when you were going to sleep was Ace, your dreams were filled with him, and his name was the word that laid on your lips the moment you woke up. So you kept yourself occupied, you ran faster, lifted more weights, swung more around in the air than anything else. You did everything to not go back to that place.

Someone snapped his fingers before your face, getting you back from memory lane. "Are you still here, (Y/N)? I asked you what you wanted to eat." An unusual soft expression covered Erin's face, as you focused on his eyes. "What? Food?... Doesn't matter, as long as it is digestible." You said. You turned around and started to climb the mast, not seeing the worried glances Avis and Erin exchanged.

You looked towards the horizon, looking out for any undesired company, while tried to shake off your sadness. It was really bad today. Suddenly you stiffened your movement, spotting a ship at the horizon. You took the spy-glass, and looked back. It wore a black flag with skull. "Oi!" You yelled down. "There's a pirateship at two o'clock!" You jumped down, landed with a soft thud, and ran towards your teacher. You jumped before her, saluting. "Permission to capsize ship, author-sensei!" You asked energetically. "Permission granted." She said with a knowing smile. Your sadness was gone, the moment you smelled the fight.

You stood at the railing, bouncing on the tips of your feet, as the other ship came nearer. They didn't back away from the fight, which was a good sign. Erin appeared next to you, his hand resting on a greenish, elegant sword. It matched perfectly with his black shirt and grey shirt. "Oooohh! Someone's a dandy here!" You whistled. "Everyone is a dandy compared to you." He huffed back. You looked down, at your stained black loose pants, and the ripped, slightly slightly smelly, Kuma-themed t-shirt. "What? I see nothing wrong here." You said back, ignoring his raised eyebrow. You pulled your bandana out of your pocket, and tamed your wild hair with it. At least that thing had survived the war. Out of custp, you touched the embroidered lily, before you focused back on the pirate ship.

"You are under arrest!" Erin yelled as the pirates were only two shiplengths away. The captain, a blonde, ugly man with purple cheeks laughed loudly. "Who do you think you are to challenge the great Blondebeard." "You don't have a beard." You bluntly stated. The man looked at you for a second. But Erin intervened. "I am a Vice-Admiral and..." The captain huffed loudly. "Don't tell me bullshit. You are with HER!" He gestured into your direction. Meanwhile Anger clouded Erin's face. But the man ignored him. "Whipslash! I am here to capture you! And learn your subordinate some manners! You don't speak this way to a future Warlord!" You cracked a smile, before yelling bad: "My bad! I already told him he can't experiment with mushrooms, but he doesn't learn!" "(Y/N)! You're not helping! Don't question my authority in public!" He yelled at you. You smacked him on the back of his head, while saying: "How often do I have to say that you have to call me Captain!" You turned back to Blondebeard, a sweet smile on your face. "Excuse me for the inconvenience, lads!..." The man laughed loudly. "But we will hijack your ship NOW!..."

You jumped over the opening, followed by a grumpy Erin. You landed between two men, hitting the face of the left one with your elbow, while pulling the other to you at his arm. You planted your foot in his stomach, and send him flying. You turned around, facing a guy with a sword. You dodged his downwards going attack, and you slid through his legs over the deck. You got up behind the guy, holding a belt in your hands. Your mischievous grin grew wider as the lads pants dropped to his ankles. "Nice panties." You said, while running towards the steering wheel. You ran right into Blondebeard who was weelding a big lance. As the long thing swirled around in the air, Erin dodged his attacks swiftly. You watched for a few seconds, while knocking some dumb lads out, who tried to sneak up on you. "Now I get it! It's like rope-skipping!" You said loudly, before you ran towards the Pirate-captain. You jumped over the lance, and backwards, crossed,... You played for a while, until you had enough. "You know, Blondebeard... I always hated rope-skipping." You said with a grin. You jumped up, but not over the blade. You landed heels first on the metal. Everything froze for a second, as you put full force on it. Then the blade started to crack. Small mirror-like pieces flew around, while you descended on the deck.

The pirate, and the remaining of his crew looked at you in disbelief. You pulled the long stick out of the man's hand, a shook of the last pieces of metal. "It would be nice if you kept standing there this way." You said, while you took a nice position, swinging the stick softly against Blondebeard's leg. You swung the stick over your head, this time aiming for real. PAF! The man flew away. You smiled satisfied. You looed at Erin, a nudged him with your fist. "Look! I said human golf would be fun!" Pure horror was seen in his eyes.

Quick thing: I forgot to say in the last chapter that I changed the name for Erin's aunt from (Y/F/N) to Avis. 6 years of Latin can be finally used meaningfully! It means Bird, or Omen. (Btw, Google translate sucks for Latin) But now it's time for Author...
