MC Pastebin: https://pastebin.com/XGUgpV79

Cover-art kindly provided by our noble artiste, Draw-anon, who generously took time off repainting the Sistine Chapel for us. Look upon our prettyboy protagonist. Look upon his devilish smile and despair.

In last thread’s episode of Alcoholics Anonymous Quest, our hero Commander Flashman did some boring stuff like, I dunno, training, meeting Mihawk Mibird Miseagull, whatever. No-one cares. The important thing is that he CAN’T GET DRUNK. What horror is this?! How is our dashing champion of justice supposed to fulfil his obligations to get kidnapped by pirates if he can’t get drunk?! How could his Logia betray him in such a vile and repulsive way? Is there no Seasus? No. There is only sobriety. Disgusting. Shameful. Only Gand-chan can save him now.

We now return you to your scheduled idiocy.

>just admit you want to touch the sword

“You must travel around a lot, huh? I thought Shichibukai normally stayed in one place.”

Mibird opens one eye, head tilting slightly as he peers in the direction of a blatantly silent Abs. “A monotonous life breeds complacency, and the degradation of skills. Simple travel can be as useful for testing one’s strength as a more... dramatic lifestyle change.”

Abs bristles.

“Such as Firefist, here,” Mibird unsmoothly segues, swirling his wine-glass. “I suspect he’ll no longer be making his base in Whitebeard territory - although of course, I’ve already been surprised by his presence, here.”

“I’ll find someplace,” Fireplace bites out, voice bitterly defiant. This is... not going places you wanted them to. SUBJECT CHANGE.

Hmmh...Since Dressrossa is a Spain expy does that mean that Sangria was made in Dressrossa?
Man,AU Oda doesn't wanna stop with leaving subtle clues about Flashman origin.
Also maybe i'm wrong,but before going full gothic didn't Mihawk use to wear Hawaian shirts?
>>
>why did i bother writing other suggestions?

“Heeeeeeey, Mibird,” you chirp, like the avian Mibird is. “If you like wine, have you tried sangria?”

Mibird seems to have taken to being called Mibird with an utter lack of care, which you find simultaneously inspiring and relieving, mainly because you like your head attached to your neck. Not enough to not call him Mibird, though. “I’ve heard of it.”

“But have you TRIED it?”

“... No,” he shamefully confesses, clearly guilt-ridden over this travesty of good taste. Well, okay, maybe he just sounds bored. That simply means he’s hiding it well. What a guy,

You crack your knuckles. “All righty then. Looks like it’s... *s a n g r i a o’c l o c k*.”

Klaus makes an odd whimpering noise as Mibird arches an eyebrow, but you’re too busy flagging down the waitress to care.

“So teeeeell me,” you wheedle, halfway through your third glass of delicious, fruity wine (it’s no Pink Flamingo, but you’re man enough to admit that other drinks are tolerable), past tipsy but not quite into drunk. Yet. “Which of - of the Emperors is the strooongest?”

“A ridiculous question,” Mihawk disparages. He has a jug all to himself. “It’s like apples and oranges. Are you including their crew in the matter? The size of their territory? The-?”

“Whitebeard!” Abs’ voice drowns him out, as the guy raises his own glass. “Pops is the strongest, no doubt!”

Ignoring the fact he proooobably shouldn’t be calling the dude Pops any more, you squint at him. “Reeeeeally? I mean, he’s kinda old... does he even fight any more?”

“Does he-?!” Fireplace splutters, but Mibird butts right back in.

“He does still fight, although considering the size of his crew, they obviously do far more of it than him. That said, I would disagree that he is ‘the strongest’.”

You stare at him, curious. “Then...?”

“Most likely... if we are talking the individual, rather than the entire crew, then the strongest is surely...”

You lean in closer, intrigued.

“... anyone but Red-Haired Shanks.”

.............

That’s not a real answer.

Seeing your glare and smirking at it, Mibird elegantly shrugs. “It’s been a long time since any of the Emperors fought each other. And of course, those who go to fight them tend not to live to tell the tale. So who knows?”

“... But Red-Haired is definitely the weakest?”

“Correct,” Mibird says, looking you dead in the eye. “His first mate is excellent at keeping him alive, whereas the man himself can’t even protect his own limbs.”

“Wow.” You scratch your cheek, thinking about all the dire warnings you heard about the Emperor back in class. “I thought he was on par with them all...”

“Perhaps he’s decent when sober. I’m not sure if anyone’s ever seen it happen.”

Daaaaaaang. The more you know. “And, uh,

INB4 "This dumbass marine walked up to me, challenged me to a fight, somehow activated Conquerors, tried to steal my knife as it was shoved into his guts, then invited me to drink."
>>
>>3711420

That was pretty much going to be the answer, actually.

>>3711428
>I HAVE CONQUERORS HAKI?!!!
>>
>>3711439
Oh god we really are, way too strong attachments to our crewmates, all the hakis, gets drunk way more than he should, insanity seems to follow us around... I'm calling it now, our Moms dad is also Shanks father making shanks our uncle by being moms half brother, which makes Big Mom Shanks Step-Mom
>>
>>3711462
You forgot the part in which Zolo and Sanji from the future shapeshift into Shanks and mom and gave birth to Flashy by scission via sword, like a starfish, that's why Shanks lost his arm.
>>
Shanks as our uncle even explains why we are so short despite our parents, grandpa was a shorty and so are we
>>
>>3711445
>I HAVE CONQUERORS HAKI?!!!
More like "What's "CONQUERORS"?"
>>
>>3711499
Flashy is from the grandline, he would know what conquerors is, hell he knew what the other hakis were
>>
When you think about our future in the Marine and the only thing you can see is:
>Becomes an Aldmiral/Big boss of the marines and changes a lot of laws so the world is a better place.
>Becomes a Not-revolutionaire and kills IM and the WG (except that guy that slapped the shit out of Carlos with a mace).
>>
>>3711462
And if your grandfather’s a D, that also makes Shanks a D.

Mihawk would be unsurprised by that.

>prep flashy saw goth mibird and mibird put his middle finger up at him

“Aaaaand,” you continue, because Shichibukai 20 Questions is a rare pleasure, “what’s the single most baffling thing that’s eeeever happened to you?” You hiccup, before glaring suspiciously at your glass and then draining it. Take that! ... Refill now.

“Not a thing... more of a person,” Mibird murmurs, pulling an expression of distaste. Then his gaze, fully sober, fixes back on you. “Although if it were limited to ‘recently’, I must say that a low-ranking Marine challenging me to a spar, revealing his Haki, and then attempting to claim my blade is... somewhat unusual.”

“Not for this idiot,” Klaus mutters from beside you, downing his own drink and looking like he wants to sleep, or die, or both. You swat his arm.

“Ignore Klaus! So.

>If I asked for it nicely, would you give it to me?”

>>If I asked for it nicely, would you give it to me?”
>>
>>3711548
Right after slapping our shit and screaming at our idiocy for challenging him to spar. Then Klaus mentions the Conqueror's Haki.
>>
>>3711527
>>Is the tiny knife actually, like, for shaving or something?”
Still want to know if he uses the actual cross-sword for that, though. It'd definitely be funnier, both in practical terms and the fact that he deems his facial hair a better opponent than scrubs from the Blues.
>>
>>3711658
>It'd definitely be funnier, both in practical terms and the fact that he deems his facial hair a better opponent than scrubs from the Blues.
And he'd probably be objectively correct too.
>>
>>3711706
>His facial hair instinctively uses Armament Haki any time it's going to be damaged, so Mihawk has to use Armament-coated Yoru to even attempt to shave
>>
>>3711740
his hair really is pink, it just looks black cause hes constantly filling it with armament
>>
>>3711750
Shanks and Mihawk both have pink hair, but are keeping it secret from each other.

>tell me mooooore

"Do people not challenge you often, then?”

Another shrug. "If you mean 'do they verbally challenge me', yes. As for bring a physical challenge... rarely. Most of my challengers are weaklings and fools. A good number are both."

You point at yourself, questioningly.

"You're both."

... Rude.

"That said, I can see that your win over Roronoa wasn't a fluke." (You keep your mouth shut that he tripped, looking innocent.) "It should be interesting to see where you are in three month time."

To be perfectly honest, Mihawk gives precisely zero fucks.

>the tluth is leveared

"So what's your connection to Lolonoa, then? Sounds like you know him?"

Mibird eyes you for a second at 'Lolonoa', before pouring another sangria from his jug. "We met in East Blue, and he impressed me with his potential. As simple as that."

Woooooooow. Okay. Does that mean - did Lolonoa spar with him as well? And what was Mibird doing in East Blue, anyway? Does Mibird know - yeah, of course he must know Zolo plans to be the strongest swordsman. What is this, some kind of 'raise your own rival' program? Zolo's YOUR rival, you called dibs on each other!

"... Zolo has Armament now. It was really dumb." The side of your face thumps down on the bar table, your head surprisingly heavy. "Just copying me like that, really stole my thunder on that one. Heeeeeh~" You chuckle dazedly at your hilarious joke. You're so funny. So, soooo funny. Yup.

You're sort of vaguely aware of a hand - Klaus? - reaching out to nudge your head. "Y'all right, Prettyboy?"

"Ngggghhhh," you reassure the voice.

Ooh, big pretty yellow eyes peering at you. All bright an'... an' yellow.

"Perhaps you should put him to bed," say the eyes.

You yawn at that, drowning out the boring talk between Klaus and Eyes. Birdy eyes. Mibird. My bird. Yes. Yoooour bird. Bird with swords. Gotta... Gotta be yours. Yes.

"My bird..." you mumble, cheek squished against the worryingly sticky wood ofnthe tabletop, fingers itching to... to......

Everything fades pleasantly away.

Oooooooh your head ow ow ow

"Nmfghklsdgh," you complain, although it's muffled by... cloth? Not a bedsheet. Too thick. Blegh.

Cracking your eyelids open is... ugh, awful. You wince, pushing your face closer to the cloth, which is...

Wait.

Very slowly, you peek your eyes open, lifting your head slightly.

The cloth is... Mibird's coat? Which is bundled on the bottom of - a very cramped boat. A coffin-shaped one. And sitting upright, not far in front of you, looking perfectly regal and relaxed, one leg crossed across the other knee, is...

Hm. Mibird's coat. Mibird's boat. Maybe other things of Mibird's ending in -oat. Buuuut. Question: why are YOU here?

You don't end in -oat.

"... whezmi?"

Mibird tilts his gaze to stare pointedly at you, uncaring of the beautiful dawn sky, or the fact you're apprently now at sea. Yep. "Are you finished drooling on my coat?"

Really, it's more like he just figured you weren't letting go and didn't care enough to make you... and then when he tried, you were clinging too tightly to his coat... so he threw his coat (and you) on the floor of the boat.

"..... yez." You squint back down at the coat. Black. Fancy red patterned sleeves. It's... probably worth more than you make in a year. Or five years. "Did I get kidnapped again? Is this a Wednesday?"

"........" Mibird intones, loudly and pointedly.

"Um." You like at the dried patch on the sleeve. "That, uh. That'll wash out."

You peek up to see Mibird looking at you with resigned disappointment, like at a puppy who pissed on his rug. Or drooled on his coat, really. ... You're much cuter than a puppy, though. And housetrained!

"... Sorry? Um. Why am I... here?"

Mibird looks up to the sky, small clouds drifting along a lazy breeze. "Why are any of us here?"

"....... Okay, let me rephrase. Why did you kidnap me?"

He shrugs, laconic. "Why not."

She's not dumb enough to say it to his face, and she recognises he's the most skilled in the world... she just thinks swords shouldn't be used for 'evil', so no matter how good a person is with a sword, if they're a bad person, they don't deserve a title like world's best, because they're shaming the title rather than bringing honour to it.

Having corrected about 50million typos in this post, I'm going to bed. Thank for playing, good night, and don't roll any more 100s! Or else.

Of course, Mihawk is a Shichibukai rather than an active pirate, so that's not TOO bad, but she's obviously had a less than stellar opinion of Shichibukai lately too, so...

You awkwardly pat yourself down to make sure all your stuff is present and correct, while edging yourself even closer to the side of the boat. Just in case you need to vomit.

"Sooo..." You squint up at him. "Where are we headed?"

"Ennies Lobby."

Wat.

"Gosh. That's, uh. Not really where I wanted to be."

"Hm." Mibird looks like he's less than invested in your opinion. "Perhaps you should have considered that before you started clinging to my coat and refuses to remove yourself."

... Maybe... you should stop getting drunk? ........ Nah. "Oh." That does sound like the sort of thing you'd do. "Thank you for not, uh, stabbing me?"

"I didn't wish to stain my clothing, with you so close," Mibird informs you. "Besides, you're very light."

At least he's not calling you fa- waaaaaait, is he implying you're some kind of midget?!

Ignoring the horrible tall man and his horrible tall... tallness... you instead move on to matters less likely to get you stabbed. "Why are yo- we, going to Ennies Lobby?"

Mibird looks at you properly at that; his mouth curving into a grin of wicked sharpness. "Oh, a simple matter - I wish to look at a sword that's being delivered there. A meitou."

Oooh. Shiny. You prop yourself up more, the smooth motions of the boat thankfully not making things worse. "Really? Cool. Which one?"

The smirk widens. "Wado Ichimonji."

>tfw oneechan makes decisions without your input

Your heart lurches and thuds down, down into your stomach, as you stare at Mibird in bewildered incomprehension. Your brain carefully lays his words out for you several more times, until it's finally understandable.

"Excuse me for a minute," you calmly tell him. Then, under his maliciously amused eye, you pull a sleepy Mr Speedy from your coat, and wriggle backwards to the far end of the coffin. Boat. Thing.

She pick up after several rings. "Flashman?"

"Keep-?" She sounds confused. "Flashman, I've told you before why I want to reclaim all the meitou used by pirates. So they can go to responsible wielders, who'll use them decently! I already have Shigure, what would I do with Wado? Hang it on my cabin wall like some - some cheap decoration? She deserves to be used!"

"But - you're learning to dual-wield, right? Why couldn't you have kept her for that?"

You ignore Mibird's obvious interest as she answers. "I don't *need* another meitou. Shigure is important to me, but I'm not stupid enough to think that someone else couldn't make better use of Wado than I could. And seriously, if this were any other sword - Flashman, this is obviously about Roronoa. What was I supposed to do with it?!"

Regardless, I just wanted to confirm what I was told by... someone else. A someone else that would know about this kind of thing, but I'm not sure if he's cool with me just talking about him especially cause he's like a few feet to my right, but maybe this counts as talking about him and I'm a few seconds away from being cut up into very small cubes? Or maybe not? I think he's enjoying seeing me verbally flop around like a land-locked Sea King."

"Tashigi..." You close your eyes and bite your lip as you try to find the right words. "I knew you wouldn't be happy, but I didn't want to lie to you, because I genuinely care about you and I don't want you to hate me. So I told you the truth. I told you how much it meant to me. But then you just brush it off as me being, I dunno, brainwashed? I'm not stupid, sis. I may act stupid, and sometimes I may have genuinely stupid moments, but I'm not stupid. I can judge someone's character. I know I'm an asshole, and I know that you're frustratingly naive, and I know that - well. That said, if you really sent it away before I got back from Skypiea, I can't really blame you for anything. I didn't know what kind of person Zoro was before then, and it was my mistake to have given you that sword in the first place."

Tashigi is silent for a long, pregnant moment. "Okay," she finally says, quiet and calm. "Leaving aside that you called me sis... I don't think you're stupid. Or an asshole. But if I'm naive, then you're naive too, because you spent all of three or so days with the Strawhats and went from hating Roronoa to finding him an honorable rival and calling him by his first name.
"I'm sure he has his good points, because everyone does, but at the end of the day, he went from bounty hunter to a willing criminal. That was his own choice, and if one of the consequences of that choice is that it put him in a situation where he lost something he's been using to hurt innocent people and Marines? Then I can't say I'm sorry for him. And I guess maybe it was your mistake for giving me that sword, but it was my mistake to think you-" She cuts herself off, bitter now. "Never mind. I have actual work to be doing, so was that everything?"

You open your mouth and let the word-vomit spaghetti spill.

"I get what you think about them," you tell her. "I understand why you believe they go around hurting innocents, and having met them, I know they don't. I also understand that having never met them, you won't change your mind. That's fine. Maybe someday you'll come to understand it isnt the case. Maybe you won't.

BP I'm a level right now. I'm soooooooo relieved you didn't make tashigi fold like a wet napkin during this argument. To many quests do this and honestly despite how players are acting she's not even in the wrong.

We keep taking in zoro's feelings but we completely ignore how tashigi must feel. I mean us asking for the sword back because Zoro would be coming along was us basically saying we intended him to get the sword back. Plus anons actually wanted to purposefully lose to give it to him. Anons imagine what she felt after we gave her the rare sword a pirate was using and she decides to send it to HQ so another marine can wield it in the name of good and instead we lash out at her(some votes kinda wanted us to lash out) because she did what her ideals led her to.

Then there's that time we kinda told her she was a worse at swordswomanship than us. When we warned her of Zoro coming to get it from her as if that must scare her could you possibly get how that would feel. To have someone who's trained for a couple months warn you who's been training for a majority of your life about a legendary swordsman.

Tashigi should've told us what she did, but too many players are only taking one side while ignoring the other. Like those who think disengaging from the marines and becoming a pirate is a good idea, but that's a argument for another time.

agreed, lot of people acting like Tashi did some unforgiveable betrayal here, honestly the only thig she did wrong was not telling us and the continued harping on Zoro not being evil just feels weird and out of place. Tashi is not gonna realize marines and the government can be evil until she is faced with irrefutable prove of it, and even then she will rationalize to hell and back. Should have just said she should have told us and told her where we were not gone on the whole "not all pirates are evil" speech this early on

The sword she won at the Renaisse tournament and then rescued from Baroque Works was actually the one Tashigi and Smoboss canonly took off BW in the manga. Then it neeeever showed up again. Why? Because Tashigi doesn't keep any meitou except her own! She hands them in like a good little Marine! And honestly, I don't know what anons were expecting when they gave it to her, because I thought I made it pretty clear what would happen.

I love Flashy but honestly, from Tashigi's PoV, he really IS getting weird after a few days with pirates. And without canon Alabasta to let her recognise that the Strawhats are decent people, and having seen Lolonoa take Flashy hostage in Loguetown... that's kind of worrying.

And she probably SHOULD have told Flashy she'd sent Wado on, but your first proper conversation once he was back kind of convinced her that maaaaybe he needed some time to cool down off the Stockholm high. Bad decision on her end, but she didn't think you'd stick to your Strawhat-loving guns. Oh, well.
>>

I'm a little disappointed she didn't keep the gift we gave her, we expected her to after all, but it was hers at that point to do with as she pleased. I am disappointed she didn't tell us, though.

she made it really clear what her intent was for rescued meitos, like BP said it was clear what was gonna happen to Wado. I still say Tashis only error was not telling flashy

You frown, then gance back over your shoulder at the lounging Shichibukai of Stabbiness. "Mibird, where are my minions and sword-hobo?"

Laconically, Mibird raises a hand and motions off at - you squint. Is that dot... a ship? Boat? Something? "That's them?"

"Yes. They were quote insistent on following, along with Firefist."

Awww. That's nice. They're probably going to murder you, but still. "Good news! They've got some kind of boat and are following us!"

"Great." He sounds less than thrilled. "When are you gonna reach Ennies Lobby?"

You look back at Mibird, who sighs. "We'll be stopping at Water 7 first. In two hours or so. From there, we may either sail or get the sea train."

Smoboss doesn't wait to you to decide that. "Fine. Just don't my idiot injured." Mr Speedy's eyes glare even harder, at Mibird this time. "I want him back in one piece."

"That's nice," Mibtd blandly says. "Flashman, pass me my coat. Hopefully your saliva has dried by now."

I've said it once, and I'll say it again, though I doubt it will be the last time I say it:

Real life trumps quest threads. Take your time if needed; if you need to take time off to combat burn out or some other reasons, we'll understand.

That said, have this tripe absolutely no one asked for!


Arthur: So, this is embarassing, but I kibd of lost my kids--I mean, weapons, so, I'm going to have to take you on with this toothpick I found! I call her Toothy-chan!
Opponent: What the fu--is this a joke to you?!

>One curb atomp via ludicrous amounts of 100s and one crying spider later

Arthur: ...Yeah, okay, even I find what I just did ridiculous...why's Mibird looking at me like that with that scary grin on his face?
Mihawk: YOu're mY Kid NoW.
Klaus: Ahahaha--no. Get your own kid; he's mine.

>And thus much clashing of blades ensued, with much collateral damage, essentially resulting in EL becoming nothing more than ruins.

Mihawk: Well, that was...fun. Yes, I do believe that's the word I'm thinking of.
Klaus: Heh, go figure; it takes the best swordsman in the world to make me kick up a sweat. Wanna grab a drink?
Mihawk: Sure.
Ace: :Not even bothering containing his laughter that World Government/Marine property just straight up wrecked:
Arthur: ...What just happened?

"By the way," you add, smug as a smug bug who smuggles mugs, "been practicing with my Fruit, learned how to do this cool trick with cannonballs to shoot them super fast with electricity. I think I might be better at throwing cannonballs than Garp now!"

A long silence dawns, hovers and sets.

"I was happier before you said that," Smoboss muses. "Don't die. Don't blow anything up. Goodbye." CLICK.

Huh.

That was odd.

Shrugging, you settle Mr Speedy back into your pocket, and twist around to look at Mibird. He watches you with mild, languid interest, face blank.

Waaait. You have... what you're wearing. And that's pretty much it. Sure, Ennies Lobby will undoubtedly have some spare uniforms, but... "Hey, uh, I kinda need to get some stuff while we're in town... are you in a rush?"

After an interminably long period of just staring at you like a giant creep, Mibird sighs. "Not particularly. Wado shouldn't arrive at Ennies Lobby just yet, anyway, so you can spend some time..." He pulls a face, "... getting supplies."

Yeeeeeah, he totally has everything hand-made and tailored. Rich jerk. Well, maybe you can find a photography place and get your camera repaired as well? The water can't have... yeah, it's probably bad. Well, you can still get it checked out.

Water 7 - famed for its shipbuilders. You can't help but wonder a little how Merry is, and what the Skypiea shipwrights had to say about her...

"Yes."

.......... oh okay that makes sense.

........................ THAT DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE

Wait, no, it's Mibird. It makes sense.

(Observation +1, DC dropped to 44!)

You try to activate Armament as well, to replicate that odd flow from before, but - it just won't come, no matter whether you concentrate or relax. Apparently you're not a badass Armament prodigy as with Observation. Although considering you activated it by sheer accident, you probably are, really.

Damn, Mibird's sword feels creeeeeepy. You're kinda glad he didn't try to stab you with it.

You still can't get the flow of Armament, although be fair, you ARE distracted by Mibird assertions re. stabbing weather.

"You cut... the weather?" You stare at him, wide-eyed.

"A basic technique."

NO IT ISN'T.

"Manipulation of airflow, dispersal of clouds, redistribution of heat to cooler area... It requires some delicacy, of course, and understanding of weather phenomena, but it's easy when you know how."

"Can you cut lightning?"

Mibird looks at you like you're an idiot. You're familiar with this look, from a variety of sources. "Obviously."

Sooooo coooooooooollll~

"... Teach... me...?" Your eyes sparkle at him, like really weird-looking diamonds. That are spherical. With a big green circle in them. And kind of wet.

But also, and most importantly, sparkly.

Mibird tilts a shoulder in what may be a shrug, and leans back without falling over, somehow. "If you can manage to follow my instructions, certainly. It'll pass the time."

Eagerly nodding, you settle down and, once told to do so, draw Cut-chan.

Then Mibird proceeds to bore you yo death with crap about, uh, humidity, and temperatures, and air currents and... stuff. Honestly, you kinda glazed over after a while. Whatever.

"Hold out your blade," he finally instructs, and hell yeah, now you're getting to the fun part! You do so, obeying his words on how to tilt and angle her to adjust to the current weather patterns.

"Of course, you aren't strong enough to actually cut the cloud above in such a way as to start a rainfall," Mibird tells you dismissively, "but you can practice to understand the principle of it. Now just slash -"

With a wave of his arm, he shows you what to do. You do it. Or at least, you do as he says, and *slash* out at the cloud above, and you sort of feel something heavy in your arm, in Cut-chan, rising to her tip but - instead of carrying on, out of the point, it flows back down -

And you can't help but feel the strange, vibrating waves of pressure as they slam down out of her pommel. And into the boat.

And through the boat.

The cracking sound is very, very loud.

Mibird looks down at the rapidly growing puddle entering his boat, expressionless.

>I didn't do it.
>I am so, so sorry.

"... on the bright side, I can use that to hit something behind or below me."

"You realize, of course, that if it weren't for the tournament, I would be killing you now."

You consider this. "Oops?" Then you shuffle backwards because GOSH, the water level's rising quickly. "Um. Just so you know, I have a Devil Fruit."

Mibird reaches up to pinch the bridge of his nose, looking utterly exasperated. "Get your crew's attention. And you OW me a new boat."

Pfft, whatever, it can't be THAT expensive.
_____

"You're going to be bankrupt for life," Klaus tells you, once you and Mibird have been pulled aboard the fishing boat hastily commandeered from Matchstick Village. Mibird himself has vanished indoors to get dry, because hes now impressively bedraggled. "But honestly, I'm mostly just surprised you're not dead."

"Eh, I think he's got something going on with Lolonoa. Guess he wants me alive for now. But still, I got a new move!"

Klaus looks at you with pity. "You also sunk a Shichibukai's boat."

Your eyes flicker left, right, left, as you laugh in a confident and manly way. "Ahahahahaha, it's not like I've ever blown up a ship before, first time for everything, ahahahahaha~!"

Klaus' own eyes narrow as he steps in close. Way too close. "Pardon?"

"I- I just said that of course I, uh, I've never. Blown up a ship before. It's my first time! Accidents happen!"

Pressing in like a witch about to drag you away and throw you into her oven (and now you're thinking about gingerbread houses, stop the hunger, Flashy!), Klaus leans over you with an aura of accusation simmering. "Haaaaaarry~" he croons, mouth turning to a simpering smile.

His glittering eyes don't tell the same story as his sweet smile. In fact, you kind of get the impression he wants to punch you in the face. A lot. "Are you suuuuuure this is the first time, Harry~?

You look Klaus deep in his scary, glare-y brown eyes, and tell him, "This is the first time I have ever sunk a boat with a sword."

Klaus leans in, closer still. He... smells like really nice shampoo. Damn, he DID steal some. "With a sword? This is the first time you did it with a SWORD? Then-" He pauses, sugar-sweet smile turning to a sudden frown. "Wait. Why were you using a sword in his freaky coffin, anyway?"

"That's... really not my point." He switched back to annoyance, and yikes, when did he start gripping your shoulder? "Harry... tell me honestly. I promise I won't get mad. Did you blow up our ship?"

>... klaus was all prepared to crush you, but your honesty and sheer pitifulness grabbed him by the papa-instincts

You try not to look at Klaus as the confession dribbles free from your mouth, staring instead at the calm seas lapping at the sides of the fishing boat. "I may have been unaware of the exact size of the powder stores when I picked the hold as somewhere I wouldn't be found practising with my Fruit."

The weight of his regard rests on you heavily for all of ten long years (or seconds, but it feels more like years), before you hear him with, hand relaxing its death grip on your shoulder. "Considering you're trying to be less manipulative, I guess I should be glad for the honesty, late as it is. And I can definitely see why you wouldn't want to admit that."

Huh. He sounds... actually not angry? You sneak a peek at him - he mostly looks a little tired. Weird. Still, his eyes are relaxed rather than narrowed and glaring death at you. "... You're really not mad?"

"Eh. It was dumb and reckless, and sheer luck we all survived. Don't get me wrong, I'm never gonna laugh about it, but... I already knew about your stunts when I signed up for permanent babysitting duties. So getting pissed off when you pull something stupid just means I'll end up having a heart attack every day."

Oof.

"That said," he drawls, louder now, "No more sword OR Logia training while on a ship unless someone responsible's there with you, got it?"

You bristle. "What?! Seriousl-"

"You just sank. A Shichibukai's. Boat."

A bunch of infantry were ordered to load it with 'standard supplies', which for a regular Marine ship of that size would include a lot of things that... really weren't necessary for a Skypiean civilian one. It was kind of a rush job, so they didn't have time to wander over and be specific.

Yeah, it was nothing. Sad.

>papaaaaa, just blew up a ship

"Only a little!"

Klaus klauses at you. Klausily.

"... Okay, yeah, point. But to be fair, it was under Mibird's direct supervision, soooo..."

"Yeah, and that's probably the main reason he didn't let you drown or kill you himself," your swordhobo says, voice dry. "Either way, you're going to be owing him a LOT. So try not to piss him off any more, yeah?"

"He didn't seem that angry?"

"Trust me. He's the cold anger type. You're boned."

Oh.

You scuff your boot on the deck of the fishing boat. "That's... not good."

"No. No, it really isn't. Because while I'll try damn hard to save your life, Prettyboy, I'm absolutely NO match for Hawk-eyes. So please," he continues, giving your shoulder a quick, gentle shake, "PLEASE, don't give him any more reason to kill us all. Okay?"

You nod. You're standing in a growing puddle of water dripping from you - at least the guys got to you fast enough that Mibird didn't just let you drown - and it's just... shaping up to be a bad day. At least your hangover's gone.

"Water 7, huh?" Klaus' hand moves up to briefly brush against your sea-slick hair, before pulling back. "Never been there. I hear it's nice. And hey, maybe Mihawk can get a new boat there."

>I think coffin boats are probably a custom-made thing.
>Mm. We're going to Ennies Lobby, after.
>Is it true Gold Rogers' ship was built there?
>Other?

>>3721476
No, Klaus is mentally being all mushy, and it looked like he was edging into just going 'hey dumbass, you're my son'. But he didn't.

Okay, I have my trial shift tomorrow, so going to sleep early, sorry. Thanks for playing and good night!

Maybe Gland-chan's using her Jobbery to make any thought of her destruction fail to even exist.

You all will see that we convince Mibird to take Merry as his new temporary ship that was our plan all along no jabbing was involved no sir

We should make some cookies for Mibird to say sorry for destroying his ship....and maybe buying him an Hawaiian shirt (i wonder if when he decided to go with his goth look he killed the Hawaiian side of himself or if it is still alive somewhere inside him).
>>
>>3721905
He would never wear a hawaiian shirt even in private..
>>
>>3721991
What a tragedy,Mihawk killed his own past version that weared an Hawaiian shirt even when they offed Gol D Roger.
>>
Wait, we're practically demi gods when it comes to paper work; can't we just finagle Mibird a more bitching ship, due to his status as a Shichibuki? Maybe say how it was an attempt to besmirch Mibird's and the Navy's name/pride/whatever.
>>
>>3722643
I think he likes the whole aesthetic of aimlessly sailing around in a coffin, luckily that shit is tiny and the fear that surrounds mihawk should get water 7 to make him a new better coffin quick as hell.

>tell me about ships, papa-Klaus

"Is it true Gold Rogers' ship was built there?"

"Yeah, out of some fancy, rare wood. Eden Wood? Something like that." Klaus leans against the side of the boat, peering down. There are no sea-kings in sight, but without the seastone-coated hull of a Marine ship, you never know. "The company that built it is still in business - Water 7 does a lot of business with pirates, although it's... rarely proven."

Smells like briiiiiibery. And probably discretion, sure, but mostly bribes.

>You're pretty much ancient, did you ever see Rogers' ship?
>So if we see a bunch of pirates while we're in Water 7, and they're not causing trouble, are we supposed to just ignore them?

>but what if i see my oniichwan

"Most Marine ships are built here too," you point out, because that seems massively dumb. "Seems kind of dangerous to play both sides like that."

"Water 7 is kind of neutral in that regard. As long as everyone's discreet, the Government puts up with it- Water 7 shipwrights, and the Galley La company especially, are just too good to piss off or start ordering around. And if they take away a major source of income from the shipwrights, they'll have to start paying more foe their own ships... So better not to rock the boat."

You huff. "So if we see a bunch of pirates while we're in Water 7, and they're not causing trouble, are we supposed to just ignore them?"

"Pretty much." Klaus shrugs. "If it's a big name, use your common sense, but if it's just some regular crew... yeah, turn a blind eye, unless they're doing something illegal."

"... I'm starting to think half of being a Marine is pretending not to notice people breaking the law."

"Yeeeeeah." Klaus sighs, reaching for his flask. "Pretty much. Part of the reason I didn't sign back up after... everything."

For a moment, you're not sure if you should say... what you want to say. Or just - hold it inside you forever. But you've never been good with self-control, have you? "I talked to Doctor Lighthouse about Sabaody. And the markets there."

"Ah." The flask makes its appearance. "I believe the current term for this sort of situation is 'oof'."

"You're too old. Please stop."

Swallowing his mouthful of something-alcoholic, Klaus sighs and very pointedly doesn't look at you. "Are we gonna have another one of those Special Conversations?"

You give an awkward, half-hearted shrug. "You're pretty much the only one I can talk to about it right now."

"Yeeeah, point." Slouching down against the side, Klaus takes another mournful look at his flask, then shoves it back in his coat. "Okay, Prettyboy. I'm not gonna defend it, because it's indefensible, so - hit me with the venting."

With that invitation, you throw your hands up and your complains to the air. "What the fuck are we even doing at this point. Is anything we're doing worth it? We fight to keep the order, but the order is terrible!"

"Less of the 'we', please, I ditched that bullcrap," Klaus mutters. Then, "Okay, look. I'll be the first to just - shit over Marine practices, and the Government. But even I have'ta admit, they do a lot of good in the world. They DO at least attempt to take down most of the scum. They DO generally now the seas a lot safer. They DO punish corruption when they find it. Just..." He pulls a face. "Does the bad outweigh the good? I dunno, and I haven't even dug that far. Just the crap that you find out anyway when you get high enough. Who knows what they're doing that's actually WELL hidden? Buuuut... if we're talking individuals, rather than the system, I'd say most are decent. It's just kind of like... five percent of assholes ruining it for everyone else."

"Except the five percent are the ones with the real power," you point out, annoyed.

"Yup!" He turns to look at you now, smiling almost aggressively. "The World Government exists to serve the Celestial Dragons, not the people. Countries pay tithes for protection; the Dragons pay eff-all, and call the shots. Simple as that. Under that kind of system, anything goes as long as it stays stable."

>you must turn to the dark side and join x drake

Scowling, you stare across into the distance. Is it really pointless? "I just... every time I turn around, I see something disgusting I'm supposed to support. How am I supposed to change that?"

"Weeeell... Simple answer is, you probably can't. As soon as people realize you're trying to change things, in ways that'll end their profits or comfort... people tend not to last long." He sounds bitter, unsurprisingly. "You'd need a high-ranked support network you could trust, ones capable of defending themselves in combat and politics. You'd need a new system to put in place, and people to actually uphold that new system - I mean..." Klaus considers. "You'd probably need the Fleet Admiral and all the Admirals to support you, and most of the Vice and Rear Admirals. Plus the leaders of the Cipher Pols... And the media, of course. The Inspectorate as well, because you'd need to search through every base for corruption of malcontents... if you could get the Commander-in-Chief, that'd be best. Otherwise, they'd have to be-" He makes a vague motion, then turns it into a head-scritching for Rodent, who peeks his head out. "Disposed of. Hypothetically speaking."

Maybe you should just pretend Klaus didn't suggest assassinating/executing the CiC.

"That's... a lot."

"The Marines are a big organization. Plus, then you have all the militaries of the larger countries to worry about, so you also need people outside the Marines to back you - politicians, royalty, that kinda thing. Nah - you might change some crap, but there's too much to put a stop to everything, Prettyboy. Too much profit in it all. Not to mention all the chaos, and criminals taking advantage of said chaos."

You consider the matter thoroughly, mind twisting through the various problems that would need to be resolved, the wealthy and powerful standing in the way of decency, the corruption and laziness, the slave trade, the misuse of power in all its myriad forms.

Then you sigh as you reach the unfortunate, but inevitable conclusion. "Guess I gotta conquer the world."

Klaus jolts. "What?! That's- no. That's NOT what I was trying to say!"

You squint at him. "It isn't?"

"No! You don't have- huh. Okay, I guess you'll be a powerhouse with a little more training. But you also need allies, like.... Okay, yeah." Face in palms, Klaus groans, quiet even before the muffling. "PLEASE don't destroy the Government with legal loopholes, Prettyboy, that's just anticlimactic."

"I mean, SOMEONE'S gotta fix this," th point out, like the reasonable and nature professional that you are. "And no-one else is stepping up, so why not me?"

"You realize this is a major, long-term thing, right?"

That reminds me, next thread might be Silvers Harry so I can prep for Ennies Lobby: The Lobbying. We'll see where this thread ends.

>>3726024
Thanks, I hate actually having to remember things about my own quest. Only losers and nerds do that, yep.

>>3726047
Klaus is simultaneously proud and terrified.

Okay, fiiiiinally done for the day. Shorter shift tomorrow and no errands, so longer run then, but I'm locking and writing now.

This sounds intriiiiguing, link when you're done!

You casually wave a hand, dismissing his boring concerns. "It's okay, I'll just keep being a dumbass and no-one'll suspect me of anything until it's too late. Maybe get a new pirate costume for the explicit stuff..." Your voice lowers slightly as you start mentally ticking boxes, like internal paperwork. Nice and organized. "Could use my Fruit for intel gathering, then just try to legalese them into self-destruction..."

Feeling your gleeful grin growing wider as you consider and dismiss options, you ignore Klaus' widening eyes and mild twitchiness in favor of reminding yourself of the exact laws regarding slander and libel.

Mmmmmm, bureacracy~ So easy to tie in happy little knots...

"Uh. Kid? Prettyboy?"

You blink and look up at your swordhobo. "Yeah?"

He stares at you, looking a little bewildered, and a lot like he's having a revelation. It's an odd mix. "Are you - do you seriously want to..." He airquotes. "'Take over the world'?"

"Yeah." A shrug. "Don't see why not. The ones running the show right now are kinda sucking at it."

Klaus runs a hand through his hair, almost tugging it, still staring at you. "Right. Okay. Great. And... I mean, you're - You want to do that from inside the Marines?"

>Yeah, I need to get promoted as fast as possible.

>you are a problem child

"Mostly? I'll have to do some stuff... outside, I guess." Maybe as Arthur. Or a different disguise! A dashing, mysterious one!

You are absolutely NOT overthrowing the Government just stop you have a chance to dress up in cool costumes. Honest. Really. You swear. Probably.

At the very least, it's a nice bonus.

Klaus groans. Very quietly. Then he leans in closer to you, bending slightly. "Prettyboy... we're gonna have'ta have a loooong, serious talk about this later, and how exactly you'll manage this, but for now - promise me you won't mention this to Smo-kun, okay? I know you trust him, but... He wouldn't report you, or anything, but he wouldn't exactly be supportive, either."

>I'm not gonna go around telling people for now. Not 'til I've done more research.
>Does that mean YOU support me toppling the Government and crushing the world under my heel?
>Yeah, I'll have to outrank him for the plan to work. I'll need everyone on standby when that happens to stop him throwing himself overboard.
>Other?

Rolling 3d100 to see if Dr Oniichwan gets a horrible sense of impending doom via brotherly bond.

Do anons really want to try to take over the world? I thought it was a joke at first. Unless we pull a Lelouch or something this can only end poorly.

It's okay, the brotherly bond probably won't settle in until he confirms who your father was.

>loose lips sink ships (and so does flashy)

"I'm not gonna go around telling people for now. Not 'til I've done more research. I can do a lot just with bureaucracy, within the system to start." Theres a lot to do before you can legally punch slave owners if the face, apparently. Wait. You tilt your head slightly, interested. "Does that mean YOU support me toppling the Government and crushing the world under my heel?"

"You literally could NOT do a worse job than the ones already in charge," Klaus points out. "But... seriously, shit needs to change, Prettyboy. Maybe what you're planning won't work out. But at the very least, you'll hopefully be a high rank, have a lotta friends and allies looking out for you, and maybe make the world at least slightly better while you're at it. So yeah, as long as you don't think it'll be fast or easy." He reaches out, smirking, and mockingly pats your still-soaked hair. "And if it all goes horribly wrong and they arrest you, I'll see if I can break you out, yeah? We can hide out somewhere for a few years and you might learn to be a decent swordsman in the meantime."

"I'm decent! I sparred with Mibird!"

"He toyed with you."

"...Same thing?"

He pats your wet hair again, even slower. "Of course, poor child. Of course."

Dick.

>Go talk to someone else.

with our hands and not making any sudden movements, dont wanna break another ship

We're so close to that bonus.

dude has gone through 3 tubs of popcorn from how entertaining we are, hes not gonna report shit just cause he wants to see the drama

rather do a training that has literally no chance of breaking the ship, this is a scary trend

I'll burn my crit if we nat1 again. We really need a teacher to reliably train Armament.
