Look upon our prettyboy protagonist. Look upon his devilish smile and despair.In last thread’s episode of Who The Hell Else Is Abs Related To Quest, you fortunately discovered that you can in fact get drunk. Then you got drunk and kidnapped by Mibird, via clinging to him like a blond leech. Good job, dumbass, at the very least, this got you towards Water 7, where you’ve now discovered a spy-guy who might be dead (or something), while you angst deeply over your recent discoveries re. the slave trade. Meanwhire, Lolonoa’s swold is heading towalds Ennies Robby, an event which will surely be totally peaceful and drama-free.We now return you to your scheduled idiocy.>poor kakuYou glance between Fireplace and your new pet spy-guy, utterly lost.“C’mon, hand him over!” Abs’ arms are outstretched, eyes wide with... something.

>dis is 4 uMeh, fine. You didn't want him anyway. Smoboss probably wouldn't let you keep such a big pet on boa- wait, no. You mean... keeping humans is wrong. Yes.You delicately dump your unconscious burden in Fireplace's arms, like a sack of bricks. "Remember to feed and walk him regularly."Abs blinks at you. "Wh-what?""Ha ha. I'm kidding. Ha ha." You take a quick step back, trying to look innocent. "Soooo, we done here?""I... think we covered everything," Fake-Usopp allows, looking around your group like you've each grown two heads. "Was there anything else?""No," Mibird says, shortly. "We'll be leaving now.""Thanks for, uh, stuff," Klaus mumbles, before nudging you back towards the exit, the rest of the group moving with you. "Reeeeally, Prettyboy? You couldn't go ten minutes without pulling some shit?">Have you MET me?!>I found Fireplace's not-dead brother! It was a good deed! (SAD PUPPY FACE)>Abs appreciates me! ...

>>3781907Fortunately Smoboss has moved past his usual angry freak-outs into a weird zen state of 'Oh look, the dumbass brat has done something dumbass again. C'est la vie'.>klaus has not yet accepted the bullshitYou roll your eyes like miniature bowling balls that are stuck inside your skull. "Have you MET me?! Besides, I found Fireplace's not-dead brother! It was a good deed!" Attempting your saddest puppy-face look, you stare mournfulmy up at Klaus, who glares back down, unimpressed. "Well.. Abs appreciates me! ... Right, Abs? ....... Right?"Fireplace spares you a brief glance from his reverent focus on Mr Stealthy. "Oh? Yeah. Sure.""... Did you even hear what I said?""......... No?"Meh. "Too late, no take-backs!"Your group of perfectly normal not-lunatics strides back out into Water 7 proper, as you try to figure out your next stop. "Okay... I need disposable weaponry... a few of us need clothes... Abs needs a pet shop...""Huh?""Never mind," you quickly say, pushing away thoughts of buying Mr Stealthy a chew-toy. "Actually, maybe we DO need a pet shop for Gol D Rodent?"Klaus considers. "Do pet shops sell pet-sized swords?">....... No.>........... I would normally say no, but we're on the Grand Line and this is apparently bullshit day, so maybe.>Hmm. Mibird, where could we get a rat sized sword?>Other?

In that case, so long losers, I'm going to ditch your insanity and make my rat buddy happy," Klaus announces, looking relieved at this escape from your crazy. "Let's meet up later... Prettyboy, want me to grab those cheap-ass swords for you?">Yes.>No.>Other?"In that case, I believe we don't have much to do while waiting for your... camera," Mibird muses, before casting his freaky gaze over Abs and Mr Stealthy. "Firefist, I take it you want to bring him with us?"Fireplace nods immediately. "I mean, it's Ennies Lobby, but... with us there, it's fine, right?""Probably." He sounds like he doesn't really care. Man, Mibird really loses interest quickly.>Split up from Mibird and Abs, go get your clothes.>Stick with Abs and Mibird, look for a place to wait for Mr Stealthy to wake up.>Stick with Abs, see if you can convince Mibird to get your clothes instead.

This sounds totally legitimate.>move along, folks, nothing to see hereAs Klaus happily vanishes off with Rodent (who receives a blandly curious look from Mibird), you set your hands on hips and announce, "C L O T H E S."You're not sure how you did that with your voice, but it was kinda impressive.Mibird sighs. "Very well."Abs shakes his head. "I need to get Sabo to-""Yeah, nah, he'll wake up on his own time," you admonish. "Seriously, just bring him along. We can hear your dramatic tale of familial love and loss later. Take a breather! Relax!"Mibird and Abs stare at you like you said something weird, but finally Abs sigh. "I guess it wouldn't be good to force him awake.""Exactly!" You nod, proud of your brilliant arguments. "Now, Mibird - use your sartorial expertise to guide me towards the domains of clothing excellence!""Excellence?" He raises an eyebrow "On YOUR budget? Really?""...

>>3782373Seasus Crab, MY EYES>stick to your budgetAll right, boys, girls and small spiders of indeterminate but scuttling gender, here comes the CLOTHES VOTEThere were some possible pictures posted in the previous (main) thread that you might want to consider, but feel free to post aaaaany kind of outfit you want. You can combine it with cloaks/masks/whatever, as well.It would be helpful to use as a disguise for a new identity in Ennies Lobby if you want, or you can just put it on straight away and wear it normally. Your regular white uniform will be fine once it's been washed and had some basic repairs done, so it hasn't been lost.>Pics or gtfo
>>3782530Still supporting that feather cloak>>3782373
>>3782546If you're going for peacock feather cape, might as well go the full mile.That said, it's been a while. What is it we're aiming for, here? An outfit for our off hours? A new look for Mysterious Pirate Arthur? A disguise for a new, third identity?
>>3782530My vote is for this ridiculous shit.
>>3782530I want basically el zollo But the cape is made out of black and red feathers
>>3782603Y E S
>>3782530Not sure if this fits our mom better though.
>>3782603Forgot to add my reason Flashys dragon family are the original rulers of dressrosa, dressrosa is basically Spain/Mexico, so with this we would be unknowingly channeling our heritage and be absolutely stylish whilst doing so
I'm going to bed now, but I just want you all to know that you have terrible taste and I hate you. You're welcome.Vote will be called in the morning, shortly after I gouge my eyes out. Thanks for playing!

>FUCK IT WHO CARES ABOUT RULES ANYWAY"Onwards! To the clothes!" You point dramatically in the direction of the shopping district.Mibird just stares at you blandly; Abs raises an eyebrow, shifting Mr Stealthy. "You're way too into this.""I've got one outfit right now," you inform him primly, "which might be fine for you, Mr I Like Showing My Skin As Much As Possible, but I need options. Plus your not-dead brother's reminded me that top hats are cool."The debate regarding the sheer awesomeness of top hats rages on as your group heads down to the shops, also covering the issues of What Coats Are Best and Is Wearing Pink Manly (yes, obviously).Fireplace keeps checking on his brother, like the guy's gonna turn to dust and blow away if he keeps his eyes off him for ten seconds, but despite his earlier panic, he seems weirdly happier now. Ecstatic, even. Good luck to 'em, you guess. He's still enough of a dick to innocently suggest the most godawful outfits for you, though.Then, as the other two men (plus their magnificently-haired cargo) amble off to look at stupidly ostentatious belts, you see it.Your goddamn Pirate Arthur costume.The same jacket. Same pants. Same hat. They must be from the same tailor, because it's the exact same thing, you're sure - and even if you can't wear that while you're a Marine, it doesn't matter.You NEED it.Casting a furtive glance around, you grab the items and hurry off to the payment counter, filled with NOSTALGIA and GLEE and PIRACY.It's after you're finishing up, new clothes carefully hidden away in a bag, that you manage to track down Abs and Mibird lurking outside the shop, having apprently made some purchases of their own elsewhere. "You need to carry them, because I've got Sabo," Abs casually informs you, nudging his bags over to you.You scowl. "Why can't Mibird carry-"Mibird looms."... Never mind." Assholes. "So, uh, anything else to do while my camera's getting fixed?""I'm probably gonna sit Sabo down somewhere and see if he wakes up before.we leave," Fireplace decides. Considering the odd looks he's been getting for lugging the guy around, you can understand. Plus, dude's probably heavy."I might as well visit the local swordsmanship school," Mibird says, flicking dust off his sleeve. "They're apparently quite good." He says it dubiously.>Stick with Abs and Abs-o. Sab-o. Whatever.>Go swording with Mibird.>Find a bookstore and science your Devil Fruit.>Other?

"I'm gonna go check out a bookstore.""Yeah, cool, I'll just wander around around carrying an unconscious guy," says Fireplace, who sounds surprisingly unthrilled by that. Honestly, seems kinda fun to you, but whatever. "I'll rent a room or something, and we'll meet somewhere later, I guess?""We probably should have planned this better," you agree, while Mr Stealthy gives a quiet mumble in his peaceful unconsciousness. "Well, if I hear any explosions or see any fires, I'll assume it's you and come running.""Same back at'cha," Fireplace assures you, which is insulting in its accuracy.You sulk off to the best bookstore you're directed to, which is three storeys tall and, shockingly, full of books.

Apparently the local med students get their textbook elsewhere.Your hopes on becoming less of an asshole dashed when the staff member completely misunderstands what you want and ends up ringing you up for 'How to Fake Friendships and Manipulate People', and a book on how to lie effectively.You guess they...

There are even diagrams! Exciting!You don't complete the whole thing, naturally, but it gives you some better ideas about how your powers work, and what you might need to try out.

If you live long enough, maybe you should retire here), and draw your cute companion of JUSTICE, who gleams at you in a dramatic and detective-y manner."Track down Abs and his Top-Hat Brother, Detective," you tell them, raising their barrel to a direction that probably won't kill anyone, maybe, hopefully.Then you throw them in the air like you just don't care.BANG"Targets acquired!" You cheer, grabbing the gun off the ground and fist-pumping as you head off towards what's undoubtedly the right direction.Detective Pistol-chan is so reliable. You should promote them to Chief Detective.(Pistol-chan Awakening +1!)You stride determinedly in the appointed direction for just ten minutes (with corrections made for the canals and buildings), when you spot Fireplace stepping out of what seems to be a small doctor's clinic.>HEY, ABS>(Sneak up and surprise him like the silent ninja you are at heart.)>(Climb in through a window and see if Mr Stealthy is awake yet.)>Other?

>y halo thar fireplace"HEY, ABS," you holler, like an obnoxious young man accosting a prostitute, except that prostitutes tend to wear more clothes than Fireplace.Abs spins around to face you, reaching up to tip his hat up slightly, while passers-by stare and duck out of the way in case the Shichibukai takes offence at the random Marine yelling at him.You beam and wave as you approach.Fireplace shakes his head a little, then walks over. He really has looked more relaxed lately, rather than begrudging his entire existence (or just wanting to kill you), but he looks positively cheery now.You open your mouth to ask how things are going, as you meet up in the middle, which is when Abs -Uh.Okay.You're being hugged.Okay.>HE'S GONNA STAB YOU IN THE BACK, GET AWAY>Freeze up in confusion.>Hug back. Never a bad option.>Other?

You guys are so fucking huggy.Also, heading home now, update when I get back. Also also, very drunk.Also also also should be regular updates tomorrow because wooooo, day off!
>huggu huggu............................... Hm. Hug. Nice.You (mentally) shrug and (physically) wrap your arms around Fireplace in turn. He's taken to wearing a open shirt since his Shichibukai status, so you aren't even obliged to feel any Marine panic at potentially touching his Whitebeard tattoo."thankyou," he murmurs, quick and quiet in your ear.Ah, yes. The sweet, beautiful feeling of appreciation. You revel in it for an ecstatic few seconds.>Well, y'know. It's just what I do. (preen)>All in a day's work for Marine Supreme, Harry Flashman!

Rolled 31 (1d100)>yes flashy is that awesome. also the salt will come soon"I'd like to take credit, but I think it's my weird aura of bullshit that made it happen." You sort-of-shrug. "He awake yet?"Fireplace pulls back, still looking happy and non-murderous. "Yeah. He's calling - a friend right now, but we spoke. It sounds like you knocked some memories loose."Huh?Abs notices your confused look. "Yeah, he'd completely forgotten about me."Uh.You step back slightly, slowly looking Fireplace up and and down. He... isn't exactly forgettable."I meant he had amnesia!""Geez, say that, then!" You throw your hands in the air. "I thought he just had a really bad memory or something!""Well, not any more." He smiles, bright and relieved. "He's busy with his own life now, but... just knowing that he's alive and okay..." Abs trails off, obviously lost for words.>Sooooo... you gonna tell Strawbrat?>Why did you think he was dead, anyway?>Did he say why he was spying on that ship at the docks?>Other?Rolling for background stuff.

>>3789694Ace? Who's that?>brother from another mother (and father)"Soooo.... you gonna tell Strawbrat?"Fireplace gives a brief scowl - "Don't call him that!" - before shaking his head. "Nah. I don't have his den den number, so I'll have to wait until I next see 'im, unless Sabo wants to track him down himself. Whiiiich, he probably will." He gazes out over the sunny streets of Water 7. "I mean, it's unlikely Luffy's going to end up HERE."You nod in agreement. "Yeah, I guess leave it to Mr Stealthy.">Although, uh, I DO have Nico Robin's number.

This is the closest thing to romance in this quest an the idea of a serious flashman denying affection for robin while everyone assumes he's lying and robin is left flustered from trying to process something so terribly misunderstood gives me this feeling in my heart. I think it's joy.

>>3789872I think that peoples, Robin included, would assume that we're intellectual rivals waging a great battle of wits between two masterful schemers where both side are constantly trying to out-keikaku each others in a bid to prove their superiority when we really just bumble our way into success by mistake but are good at making it look like we planned it all along.

Alright I just binged the archives over the course of a couple days. Running on about four hours of sleep total. And holy fucking hell. I haven't been this hype thanks to dice since improvaizen. Also simultaneously disappointed in said dice. Really I'm not sure how I feel about the dice. They are just too strong. In both directions. But this quest is the most fun I've had since the board split so thank you and congratulations. Also the playerbase is fucking nuts. And don't even try to argue you psychotically giddy dice-mongers.
>>3790272We are as the dice made us
>>3790305Praise be unto the dice. May they ever fall upon this salted earth with hundos. The salt is from BP tears from said hundos.
>>3790272Welcome to Hell, please abandon all hope at the door! Thankfully the dice seem to have mostly calmed down. Sort of. It's all nat1's from here on out.>your waifu is sugar, and she will never abandon you~ <3Hmm. Maybe... Strawbrat should know? You cough awkwardly, suddenly finding the local architecture fascinating. "Although, uh, I DO have Nico Robin's number. For reasons.""........" Abs verbalizes loquaciously. "Uh. Do I... want to know what those reasons are?"You pull a face. "I had to go temporarily undercover as a pirate. Then I got kidnapped and ended up your brother's ship for a while. It was a thing."Fireplace's lips twitch. "You - got kidnapped by my little brother.""Well, technically -"Then he points and laughs at you. "Haaa! This is great! Luffy kicked your ass! That's karma!"Your face morphs into a full scowl as he nearly chokes around his continued hilarity. "I was drunk, no-one kicked- STOP LAUGHING DAMMIT!"He doesn't.>Strangle him. Gently. With affection.>Teeny tiny electro-zap him.>Kick him in the shin like a ten year old.>Other.
>>3791351>Kick him in the shin like a ten year old.
On an unrelated note and not being entirely caught up with the series, what if that fancy third world ending weapon has something to do with all those moons the world seems to have? We know at least one moon has a city on it. But all those others? Pluton is a crazy boat. Poseidon is seaking talkygirl. We got something for the surface of the sea and something for under the sea so what are the odds the last thing is above the sea? At first I'd thought it'd be funny if it WAS Ark Maxim but then I remembered Enel built the thing so it couldn't possibly be old enough to be Uranus. But something built on those celestial bodies? It's crazy enough. And it's not like getting to space is hard in universe. Or maybe it's something dumb like a trebuchet I don't know. Until I find out for sure my headcanon is that Uranus is some sort of space cannon or something built on the things orbiting the world though. Anyone else speculated on it?>tfw you only thought about it now because anon was talking about shipping Robin and it reminded you of the tree at Ohara>>3790191Thank you anon, for making me curious and have to research episodes to make sure I wasn't crazy about the moons around the world. Unless the tree was wrong, of course.

>i am rubber (actually, that's luffy), you are glue (or fire, whatever)You really wanna kick him. In the shin. But you are a mature and professional Marine with impeccable self-control, so you instead scowl in manly and not at all pointy way, and fold your arms while Fireplace giggle-snorts like the immature and unprofessional pirate that he is. Is he technically still a pirate? Whatever."If I got caught by Strawbrat, and I caught you," you snidely announce, "then by all logic, you got beat up by your own little brother! That's gotta sting, huh, Abs?"The laughter switches off as quickly as Smoboss' interest vanishes when you and Ta-sis start babbling over swords. Instead, Fireplace's eyes narrow at you as a little steam puffs out from his shoulders. "What."You smile. Sweetly. "I was just wondering whether you getting beaten up by your little brother was a regular thing. Tell me honestly, do you cry afterwAACKKGETTOFF ME!!""I KICK HIS ASS, HE DOESN'T KICK MINE," Abs yells, your neck caught in the crook of his elbow as his headlock catches you off guard. What was his bounty? Half a billion? You're sort of seeing why, because you didn't even see him move just then."*I'LL* KICK YOUR ASS, THEN!" Your own elbow lashes out into his side, causing only a small flinch, as Abs tries to drag you further down, which you kindly assist by hooking your ankle around his and bringing both of you down to the (wonderfully clean) pavement.It's when you're trying to strangle Fireplace with his hat cord, and he's trying to grind your face into the ground that the pair of you finally realize you have an audience; looking up to see Mr Stealthy sitting cross-legged in front of the doctor's clinic, trying to keep a straight face. Oh, and quite a few civilians are hanging around too. You think they're taking bets.>.... (take advantage of Abs' distraction and GO FOR THE KILL)>......... hi.

And with that polite query, you twist off the ground and out of Fireplace's suddenly lax grip, arms outstretched and fingers hooked into claws as you lunge at the now wide-eyed Mr Stealthy.Apparently it's difficult for even guys with super-reflexes to dodge (or catch you again) when they're sitting cross-legged after having recently woken up from unconsciousness, because he just has time to squeak, "AT YO-" before you slam into him like a cannonball into whatever Garp throws it at.Aka, violently. And resulting in screams.Mr Stealthy splays backwards as he hits the ground, reaching up to yank at your hair and coat - then you hear a defiant yell and footsteps from behind, before a small house lands on your back.Or Abs. Seriously, dude, lose some weight.The three of you roll across the street in blissful, violent stupidity, as the growing crowd cheers their approval at particularly effective kneeings or punches.Pirate vs Marine vs Spy. The showdown of the ages, as you yank at Spy-Guy's (luxuriously silky) hair, ignoring his yell to watch his hat, Fireplace trying to give you a Hanoese burn (ultimate dick move), twelve limbs kicking, hitting and generally flailing, like a bizarre three-headed octopus. Or whatever the word would be for twelve. Deca-deuxpus? You don't know or care, you're too busy trying to bite through Spy-Guy's coat and into his shoulder."VENGEANCE," Fireplace yells in joy and merriment, a tone completely at odds with the way he manages to latch onto you and NO NOT A SUPLEXIt is, regrettably, a suplex.You shriek like a banshee as you hit the ground, cheek pressed against the pavement, pinned with Abs' knee on your spine (ow), arms twisted behind you as you wriggle to no avail, Spy-Guy laughing loudly as he probably watches.

>>3791895I'll consider it, but I have zero idea how EL is going to go now you've screwed up the Merry, Sogeking, Ace and Sabo, Mihawk, Kaku and Wado, and pretty much everything.

Update soonish, walking home.Sabo best boi.
>>3791989His Bounty is only 602 mil tho.Which is kinda pathetic for who he is, honestly.
>>3792025Akainu was jealous of his hair and thus lowered his bounty to insult him. This is 100% canon and I would never lie to you.>sabo is so strong and manly kyaaaaaWith the power of potential cucKds pushing you on, you stick to your agreement ad valiantly head forth to assist in battle. By which you mean you try to sneak around and grab Mr Stealthy in a full nelson.Yeeeeeah. Turns out you shouldn't try to out-stealth Mr Stealthy, because he promptly ducks under your arms, the giant pole strapped to his back nearly hitting your face, then twists to avoid Abs' blow, grabs you around the waist, and throws you at Fireplace.Well. At least he used you as a projectile rather than a melee weapon?As both you and Fireplace go down in a like of tangled limbs and panicked yelps, Mr Stealthy saunters over, pressing one boot gently down on your back (your spine, AGAIN?!), Abs pinned beneath you, and then taps the back of your head with what's probably the metal pipe.Abs scowls up at the undoubtedly-smug guy above you, then tilts his head to look at you, expression turning hopeful. ".... Do I still get cupcakes?">No. You don't deserve them.>A deal's a deal, but you suck. Just lettng you know.>... Yeah, fine, I guess. (sulk)>Other?

>>3792089To be fair cupcakes and cuck-cakes are probably both incredible motivators. Are we going to try to frost a fire being extinguished by the kanji for "brother" on Ace's cupcake?>Law continues to play a dangerous game
>my typos increase by 300% when I type while lying down, but it's comfy so I don't careYou scowl down at him, only slightly cheered by the fact you're technically taller than him right now. Stupid tall people. "A deal's a deal, but you suck. Just letting you know."Fireplace gives a rolling shrug beneath you, all casual. "Eh, no shame in losing to Sabo. Although this is just a fluke, I'm still stronger than 'im.""Reeeeeally?" The voice from above you is politely disbelieving, the pipe nudging you a little harder. "How's that working out for you, Ace?"Fireplace looks innocently up at the guy, all sweetness and light. "Oh, pretty well, how about you?""Can we PLEASE get up now?" You can't help interrupting. Your back's sore, and unlike Fireplace, you aren't used to getting beaten up."Awww, sorry, Commander," Mr Stealthy coos, obviously amused, but his pipe and boot vanish, letting you roll off the Shichibukai and scramble to your feet.The audience gives a round of light applause now the show's over, finishing the last of their payments, and most start dispersing. Meanwhile, you glare at Mr Stealthy, who grins back at you with an obnoxiously hearty smile, and Abs jumps to his feet looking like he went for a Sunday stroll rather than any kind of actual fight.Ugh. You have a feeling that if they'd been fighting seriously, you'd have been out in five seconds flat. Possibly even WITH your Devil Fruit, considering at least Abs has Armament.>No cupcake for you. And you're welcome for the memories, Mr Stealthy. (imperious scowling ensues)>... So how are you blond, with two black-haired brothers?>By the way, if Mr Stealthy's a pirate, I don't wanna know. Plausible deniability and all that.>Other?

>>3792131>... So how are you blond, with two black-haired brothers?>Before you say anything keep in mind that we're officially both Marines so for your sake skip over details that we can't justify with "plausible deniability". Like piracy. Or being a sneaky boi around Marines.
>>3792131>>... So how are you blond, with two black-haired brothers?
>>3792131>>... So how are you blond, with two black-haired brothers?He's blond. He's also stronger than both his brothers. This must be a sign.
>>3792131>No cupcake for you. And you're welcome for the memories, Mr Stealthy. (imperious scowling ensues)I think Flashy would be person that would get that FAMILY doesn't need to be blood related
Gotta sleep, updates from earlyish afternoon tomorrow. Thanks for playing, night all!
Night QM! Thanks for running!
>i was honestly going to update earlier, but then i pulled three 5 star characters on a gacha so obviously i had to level them. sorry?Now is the time to ask the question you've been pondering for an entire thirty seconds or so. "... So how are you blond, with two black-haired brothers?"Mr Stealthy seems taken aback for a whole 0.01 seconds, then smiles brilliantly. "Ace and Luffy dye theirs.""Aaaah," you nod wisely. "That makes sense.""How does that make any sense?!" Fireplace is less impressed, reaching over to grab the back of your coat collar. "That's it, we're going inside. You two can be idiots in private.""Probably a good idea," Mr Stealthy agrees, moving towards the clinic door. "I heard a gunshot earlier, the local police might be a bit twitchy.""Hahaha oh no not a gunshot," you innocently say, eyes flicking around perfectly innocently as Fireplace drags you inside as well. He squints suspiciously at you, but your charm and purity clearly allay his suspicions. Except that he keeps shooting you wary looks, so maybe not."But to ACTUALLY answer your question, all three of us have different parents, and my hair is perfectly natural," Fireplace adds, giving his brother a scowl as you wander through to a small, sterile room with a rumpled bed. Presumably where Mr Stealthy woke up."That's a lot more boring than I was hoping for," you admit. So Garp is Fireplace's bio grandfather? Maybe? Or Strawbrat's? Probably not Mr Stealthy, based on his immaculate blond hair, but that could always come from the other side of the family. Or maybe HE dyes it.Abs rolls his eyes, and reaches over to casually shove you towards a chair, while Mr Stealthy settles himself on the bed. "Yeah, yeah. So, you have Robin's number, huh? I... probably shouldn't speak to her, but if you can get me through to Luffy..."Mr Stealthy perks up. "Robin? Nico Robin?"Fireplace glances over. "Yeah, Commander Trashcan here got himself kidnapped by Luffy somehow -""I was drunk.""- and now I guess he's buddies with Nico Robin or something.""No way!" Your denial is furious. "If I'm buddies with anyone on that ship, it's Doctor Cutie!" And maybe Zolo, but you're not admitting to that. Nuh-uh. You're ~RIVALS~.Mr Stealthy stares at you. "Doctor... Cutie?""He's a cutie," you throughly explain."True," Abs agrees."I regret getting my memories back..." murmurs Mr Stealthy, reaching up to rub his forehead. "Right, everyone being nuts aside, could I speak to Nico Robin as well as Luffy? I have... business with her.">I hope you aren't planning on kicking her ass for anything, because Strawbrat's kinda protective.>Sure, but Abs should probably talk to your brother first, before you get on the line like a spooky ghost.>Oh Seasus, don't tell me she's another long-lost sibling?>Other?

And I hope you aren't planning on kicking her ass for anything, because Strawbrat's kinda protective."Mr Stealthy's lips twitch. "I promise to be entirely non-threatening," he vows, voice mock-solemn. He glances at Abs. "Are you gonna call now?"Fireplace, knowing you're the one with both number and den den, looks to you.>Go for it.>Sure, but, uh, say you got this number from a guy called Arthur, rather than a devastatingly handsome Marine.>Hooooold up, I got questions first.

Poor little guy. You owe him so much lettuce.With the familiar puru-puru ringing, the den-den on the other end is finally picked up - Nico's personal one, rather than the Merry's."Yes?">Heeeeeey, it's your favourite totally-a-pirate, Arthur, where's Strawbrat?>Hello, CRIMINAL SCUM.>Hi, is your refrigerator running?>Other?>>3793474I'm not saying she's already in a happy three-way relationship with sandy-boi and Nami.

>67 + 50 = 117>75 + 39 = 114 u lose, loser"Hi, is your refrigerator runn-?"And then, sighing heavily, Abs slaps the back of your head, making you yelp. You nearly dodged it! Nearly! Okay, you didn't.You shoot him an accusative glare while Nico seconds his sigh with one of her own. "Hello, 'Arthur'. Is there a reason you're calling? Or would you like to speak to Mr Swordsman?""N-no, I'm good, Wado's good, no problem there," you stammer, "but, uh, I need to speak to Strawbrat. For reasons.""... What 's wrong with Wado?""WADO IS FINE."She makes a darkly amused 'hmm'. "Of course. I'll just get the Captain for you." A small click, and Mr Speedy starts humming and bopping along to hold music, looking a little happier."Honestly, you're worse than Luffy," Fireplace huffs, which is about the worst insult you've ever been given."Hey, he got me my memories back," Mr Stealthy scolds, "be nice."You like Mr Stealthy. He's clearly the best sibling."He held a gun to my chest!"At Mr Stealthy's curious glance, you try to look innocent. "He totally deserved it.""Yeah, I can believe that," muses Mr Stealthy.Before Abs can throw a nearby ornament at his brother, another click sounds, the hold music ends, and his other brother from another mother (and father) picks up. "Hey?">A'right, I'm out. Good luck, losers. Tell Strawbrat he's also a loser. Looosers.>Hey, Strawbrat, I have a pair of guys here who begged me for the chance to talk to you.

Man Flashy is just so bullshit at this point.All 3 types of Haki, the ability to pick up weapons and fighting styles extraordinarily quickly, luck so absurd he can find whatever he wants by vaguely firing in a random direction and following it.

Strawbrat's voice is delighted, Mr Speedy's eyes widening and mouth turning into a creepily stretched grin. "Ace! Ace! Are you okay?!""Yes!"

You blink at him, slowly, innocently, like the pure angel you are, and he stifles a laugh.You eaten this eavesdropping, dammit.A quick check-up on each other- it sounds like th Strawhats have left Skypiea - and finally, Abs blurts out, "Sabo's alive!"Strawbrat goes silent.Mr Speedy's face turns from cheerful to confused, then blank, then widening, teary eyes in about two seconds, as Strawbrat promptly loses his shit and nearly deafens you all. "HE'S WHAT?!""My cue," Mr Stealthy murmurs, reaching over, tears in his own eyes, and grabs the snail. "Hey, Luffy.

Your denial is fast (and furious) as strange trails of water make their way down your overheated cheeks. "I n-never c-cry~!

And then, with a stifled wail, you throw yourself further into Abs' suddenly confused grip, weeping as only a closet romantic can, tears (and probably snot) flinging themself forth into his shirt as you bury your face against it. "Iz zo s-sweet!" You choke out between muffled sobs, Fireplace alternately tensing up and trying to pat your back in sheer bewilderment at the sudden change. "S-siblings 're z-zo good!""Th-there, there?"

Also glad it didn't win, for the same reason.

Are we sure Ace's abs aren't just for show? It seems like the only time he doesn't job super hard is when he's wrasslin'.>plot-changing epiphanyHe'd learn that the letter "D" means "Da-family"?

>>3794250I would go for 3 option but I like my Flashy like my hopes for future. Insecure
>>3794228I really want to see this story through Abs' eyes. He went from wanting us dead to being protective with only an endless amount of bullshit to help him make the change.

>>3794284A Robin interlude would be fun.
>>3794250>>3794293A ZORO interlude would be really fun, any idea when something like that might come along HMMMMMMMMMMM!?!?!??!?!
>>3794293Honestly most characters would be great for an interlude just from the absolute shitshow that Flashy brings with him everywhere he goes. Except Luffy.>Hey he's kinda strong.>But he's a marine.>Cannonballs...>Hungry.
>hush little marineWait. Crap. You're way too sober for this. Swallowing your next sob, you scrunch your eyes tight, fighting back the tears.You can do this.You can do this.You don't know whether Fireplace rubbing sympathetic circles on your back is helping or making it worse, but you can definitely do thiYOU WANNA CRY SO BADnoNo, Flashy!Biting your lip, you mange to decrease your tears to an occasional hiccup, blearily pulling your face back from Abs' soaked shirt."... You okay?" Abs peers down, visibly concerned and maybe a little awkward. Mr Stealthy... apparently he's not even noticed, by the way he's happily chittering away on the den den.>... I'm good. Sorry.>....... That didn't happen. I don't know what you're talking about.>............ I can't believe my allergies sprung up so bad.

>oh no my allergy to posting updates is playing up, guess i'll die"... I can't believe my allergies sprung up so bad. Wow, gotta pop an antihistamine or something." You furiously wipe your eyes, while Abs arches an eyebrow, expression bland as his hand carefully lifts from your back."Allergies, huh? To what?""......" TO HAPPY REUNIONS, you think, as your eyes burn again. "T-to... your shirt!"GENIUS."So you thought sticking your face in it would help, huh?""I- I'm building up my immune system! Jerk!""That's not how allergies work..." Abs mutters, pulling some tissues from a nearby box - the joys of being in a doctor's clinic. "Here, wipe your face."You scowl. "I don't need to!"Fireplace glares back, still Holding out the tissues. "Do it or I'll wipe for you."You shut up and clean your face. Double-jerk."- meet up in Water 7 soon, okay?" Mr Stealthy seems to be winding down his conversation, happy beam on his face as he gives his love and then ends the call. "I'll talk to Nico Robin in person, over the den den is just-" He pauses as he turns, catching sight of you and Fireplace, the latter sort of... half hugging you?

"I'm allergic to stupid questions! They make me die! Do you wanna kill me?!""Surprisingly, no." He grins again, stepping over to throw himself down on the bed once more, and passing Mr Speedy over to you. "Luffy and his crew are gonna be here in two days!" Then he frowns. "The Aqua Laguna won't be too long after that. And I really shouldn't be here that long, but..." He shrugs. "Plans change."Awwww shiiiiiiit. They're coming here.

Rolled 83 (1d100)>swoooooord"... I really need to get Wado back," you mumble, running a hand through your hair. Then you look up at Mr Stealthy, curious. "How DID you get amnesia, anyway?"His face drops to a scowl, Abs tensing up beside you. "I got attacked as a child." He lifts one hand to tap gently at the scar that covers a portion of his face. A burn scar, whatever caused it must have been... highly painful."Ah... Sorry." Maybe you shouldn't have pried.>Did they get caught?>(thumbs up) Scars are sexy, just saying!>I have a problem with being a nosy asshole.

>flashman's an expert intel gathererStill, you can't help but wonder... "Did they get caught? --- Sorry! I have a problem with being a nosy asshole. It's kind of an ongoing malady."Mr Stealthy chuckles, maybe a little darkly, as he settles himself more comfortably. "No. Not yet." Then he brightens in an instant, darkness vanishing as his gaze focuses on you. "So! Ace is a Shichibukai - and the official explanation for THAT stinks, by the way - and you're a Marine officer. How'd you and my not-little bro meet?"As one, yours and Abs' eyes meet.>Uh. I don't remember.>Weeeell, remember the thing about the gun to his chest?

"Weeeell, remember the thing about the gun to his chest? That was a very direct consequence of our first meeting."Mr Stealthy sloooowly raises an eyebrow. You wish you could do that. "Oh?""Yeah, oh?" Abs, you were there, you asshole.Screw it. "Okay, look. I'd captured Strawbrat's first mate, and Hothead here decided to infiltrate our ship while disguised as a Marine. Which I saw through immediately, because my perception is just, y'know, the best. Anyway, long story short, I handcuffed him with seastone, held a gun on him, and arrested him. Happy?"Throughout the explanation, Mr Stealthy's expression hasn't changed, but for the occasional blink. At the end, he finally speaks. "... And now you two dumbasses travel around together and rough-house in the street?">Merely a temporary arrangement!

"Uh. Yeah, I'm gonna need a more thorough explanation of that, but just to make sure - you're here with Mihawk? And how long are you here for?""Yeah, and... a few more hours? Just stopping by before Ennies Lobby." You notice Abs wince slightly at that, while Mr Stealthy's eyes flicker slightly. Weird."Ennies Lobby, huh?">Yeah, gonna check out Wado's new wielder.

"Gotta look up some legal stuff while I'm there, rip off Goverment funding, recover a priceless sword so I can beat my rival up with it, meet my C.O. after I got lost in the sky and killed a god, you know, standard stuff.""Killed a what now?" Abs looks reluctantly intrigued."Crazy Lightning Logia asshole, took over a Sky Island. This was when I was kidnapped by your brother," you add."Aah, so that's where you got the Devil Fruit."CURSES. "N-no, I just have a Static Paramecia," you quickly tell the guy who already saw you turn into a mass of lightning during the Big Mom pirate bullcrap.Mr Stealthy looks over at Fireplace. "A Lightning Logia, huh? Gotta be useful.""He's a total amateur with it," corrects Fireasshole. You kick his ankle like the mature, rational adult you are."I've had it about a week!""Nearly two, really." He smirks, which is stupid, because who the hell masters something in two weeks?! You've not even mastered swords yet, and it's been a whole seven months or so since then!Mr Stealthy flashes a toothy grin. "You're going to Ennies Lobby, too, Ace?"Abs pauses, obviously uncertain. "I was going too, but if you and Luffy are meeting up here...">As a Marine, I can't support you meeting a wanted pirate, but if you happen to stay in Water 7 for a while, it's no big deal.>It might be best if you meet him some other, less public time.

As a new Shichibukai you've got lot of eyes on you," you point out, having already taken him to one secret probably-illegal meeting with a pirate doctor.Abs scowls, but Mr Stealthy butts in. "He's got a point. Like I said, the story behind your recruitment doesn't really bear up if people dig far enough, and we've already had a brawl in the street. It's not like people don't know you're here.""But it's-""I mean, if you want to put more attention on Luffy..."Fireplace shuts.his mouth with a click, and slumps. "... Yeah, fine.

I'd already bad one offer to be a Shichibukai a while back, and gr- Garp was nearby, so... it seemed like a workable way to get out fast."You hear Mr Stealthy give an amused huff. "Typical. But are you...?"He trails off at whatever expression Abs gives him, likely because you're in the room.

"So I just bought this reaaaally interesting book and I'm gonna go to that cafe across the street to get a scone and do some light reading. Just felt like it, no other reason... none," you inform them quickly."I believe you," Mr Stealthy earnestly tells you, looking at you with the most trustworthy eyes you've ever seen. It's mildly disturbing."I don't," chirps Abs, who remains a dick. And then, because he's a ultimate turbo-dick, as you pass him, he swings an arm and -DID HE JUST SLAP YOUR ASSJudging from the sudden stinging, and the muffled yelp of shocked laughter from his brother, yes."Enjoy the book, Trashcan," Fireplace smiles.>Punch him before you leave.>Pretend nothing happened, go into denial, and leave with your head (and ass) held high.>Elcectrocute him.>Other?That's right, ass-smacking time appeared.

Abs flinches. Eyes widen, the grin freezing on his face, as Mr Stealthy's muffled cackles only increase.Then you turn slowly back to the door and walk out, still holding the cannonball, Mr Stealthy's volume increasing despite Abs' continuing silence.Once out of sight, you store the cannonball again, huffing in indignation at the ache on your butt, as you head outside. The street is fairly quiet now, and you step across to the cafe without any attention being paid to you.

Rolled 35 (1d100)Rolling for knowledge gained if we eat the book
>>3798071You got it all wrong. We have to fight the book.
Rolled 19 (1d100)>>3798074Let's see if that theory holds up
Rolled 17 (1d100)>>3798134>tfw the book is actually a yonkoRolling for the bounty on the book.
>>3797811i propose that flashy is instinctually disgusted by stuff like splenda and other *diet* sweeteners. WHAT IS THE POINT OF SUGAR IF YOU DONT FEEL THAT RUSH THAT MAKES YOU THINK YOU CAN OUTRUN THE WORLD?!
Rolled 50 (1d100)>>3798213Rolling for cafe using fake sweeteners instead of real sugar.
>>3798233Oh boy, my first Thanos roll!
>>3798213>flashy walks into a "healthy" cafe>smells the lack of real sugar
>>3798019Book smarts is something Flashy is supposed to excel at.
>>3798294Nah that's filing paperwork. Flashy was a fax machine in a previous life. Because clearly he can't reed gud.
Rolled 74, 29 = 103 (2d100)>>3797812>>3797813>>3797815>>3797817Ehehehehehehehehe>>3798019I was actually giving a +5 to it as well from your previous oniichwan-bond success, so now it's at +8 or so. Poor Lawless is getting weirdly twitchy and wanting to stab Fireplace for no apparent reason.First real is for Flashy to have to electrocute the book, second is for Flashy to have ADHD or something that DOESN'T LET HIM CONCENTRATE ON DAMN BOOKS
>>3798687What modifier does Abs get when someone touches the Luffmeister?
Rolled 53, 93, 93 = 239 (3d100)>>3798707+infinity. The power of the oniisan is a real and tangible thing in One Piece land. Behold its awesome strength.That reminds me, background roll for our favourite sack of darkness shit, Fatbeard!
>>3798715Oh no, double 93s! Fatboy gets a bonus, if he doesn't eat it first.
>>3798715oh no
>>3798715Holy hell did he replace all of his fat with muscle? That's one stronk lad.

Rolled 17 (1d20)>>3798823142 vs 144, good thing Fatbeard was already injured...Different matter, last roll. Unless it's a 20.
>40 + 17 sugar bonus. U suk lolSettling down in a cosy armchair with your cookies and strawberry milkshake, you pull out the book you were reading before - good ol' electricity for dipshits.It proceeds to kick your ass. Brain. Whatever.Maybe you didn't properly understand the previous chapters, or maybe it's a leap in difficulty, and the author just failed to understand this stuff is HARD. Or maybe you're just distracted by cookies.(GGnM increased to C.2!)Whatever the reason, you manage to force your way through two chapters with a complete lack of interest, before you decide it's just not working out right now. Maybe your head's too full of Mr Stealthy and whether he's actually a pirate.You... don't really want to ask. Abs is a Shichibukai, so he's fine, but despite your recent - discoveries of certain distasteful practices, you're reasonably certain that arresting or killing pirates is primarily a good thing. Sure, there's the Strawhats, they're just a bunch of adventurous dumbasses who keep getting into trouble, and you can't imagine Usopp's crew is bad, either... Lawless' crew SEEMED okay, but...Ugh. Why is life so complicated? Maybe you should stop thinking about Fleet Admiral and go become a baker or patissier, or something. Mmm, cakes.You check your watch (and give Mr Speedy some cucumber, courtesy of the cafe owner). Thirty minutes- that should be enough time, right?>Wait a little longer and do something (What?)>Head back.>Other?Maybe update on my break, but probably none tonight unless I somehow get off shift early. Which I doubt.
>>3798833>>Head back.
>>3798833>Head back.
Can't update right now, but to save time today/tomorrow, any particular questions/conversation topics for Sabo or Abs?
>>3799094What are they gonna tell Garp? if anything
>>3799137Ah
He did literally nothing wrong.
>>3799478He punched a hole in the most spectacular set of abs in the world!Oh and he killed some guy or something
>>3799094Is a pipe really the most effective clubbing implement he could use or does he just like the sound it makes when it hits things?
>>3799094How worried do I need to be about Whitebeard gunning for me if he finds out what happened?
how is abs hair compared to stealthy?
>>3799624Shitty. Stealthy's hair is constantly flexing so it can hold his top hat on in high speed maneuvres.I bet Firefist's hair doesn't even work out at all.
>>3799634>sabo's hair: keeps the tophat secure, fluffy, well protected from the elements>ace's hair: doesn't even wear his hat, always exposed to extreme heat, floppy
Roll 1d100, best of 3 for Abs' hair.
Rolled 79 (1d100)>>3799642
Rolled 24 (1d100)>>3799642Incoming shock
Rolled 73 (1d100)>>3799642
>>3799645Not bad!>>3799640Hold up now, his hair is immune yo heat damage. The question us whether he wears the hat at sea, to protect it from all the salt. Which he clearly does, judging by the roll.
>>3799655>his hair is immune yo heat damageHeh, shame his torso isn't, huh?
>>3799682but till the end his hair was fine
>>3799685D hair is naturally amazing. Maybe you're born with it. Maybe it's the D.Any more questions? I'll be updating soonish. Also please mention if you wanna slap anyone's ass, apparently it's all fair game around here.... Do not slap Mibird's. You WILL die.
>>3799695>... Do not slap Mibird's. You WILL die.That would be a fitting end for the quest.
>>3799695I want to slap Sanji's ass. It'd probably feel like slapping a cannonball. And the look of sheer horror on his face would be nice.
Rolled 94 (1d100)>>3799700I'm not sure if Flashy would die, or Sanji would implode from the shock, but either way, rolling for broken hand.
>>3799704Ouch. Gonna need Law to fix that one.
>>3799711who the hell has haki constantly running across their ass?
>>3799704I want my revenge on abs SLAP DAT BOOTY
>>3799704Damn, Sanji, how solid is dat ass?!>head backWith a teeny bit more science stuffed into your skull, you order a couple of drinks for Jerk and Nice, and amble on back.They're looking slightly more rumpled than before, whether from hugging or some kind of fight, you have no idea, but their eyes aren't as red, so you're calling that a win.Plus, they don't seem to mind that you've arrived, so they're clearly dine with whatever private discussion they had. Apparently the doctor came back to check on Mr Stealthy and then made himself scarce as well, so whatever."Oh, and I got you drinks," you add, at their curious looks at your exciting beverages. "Abs, this is your basic bitch drink. Mr Stealthy, this is your actually good drink. If you don't want it, I'll have it. Abs, if you don't want yours, pour it over your head.""I love pumpkin, thanks," Fireplace shrugs, already swallowing his first mouthful, the tasteless wretch.Mr Stealthy also appreciates his, which is nice. It's a good thing he got amnesia and didn't get raised with Fireplace, or he might have turned out similar, in which case the only solution would be to destroy the entire planet and start over."So I gotta ask," you blatantly lie, flopping down in a chair, "What are you gonna tell Garp? If anything?"The brothers glance at each other warily."... If you could maybe forget you ever saw me, that'd be great," Mr Stealthy suggests, with a charming smile."Yeah, the Vice-Admiral doesn't need to know," Abs hastily says. "If the rest of you could not mention him...?"You shrug. "I can't answer for Mibird, but I'll make sure Klaus doesn't say anything. And, uh, by the way, how worried should I be about Whitebeard gunning for me?"Fireplace looks at you pointedly, finishing his trash-drink. "You didn't maybe start thinking about that a while back?""Well, yeah, but I couldn't ask you then!""Ugh." Abs settles back, expression uncomfortable. "I think... they'd be more interested in getting to me, than you. If you'd killed me, that's one thing, but..." He sighs, slumping slightly. "I've made sure not to call them since everything happened. Losing two Commanders in quick succession... they're probably too busy covering gaps and making sure no-one tries to take advantage to do anything right now. When they're secure again - I dunno. They're really not gonna be happy. But I'll be the target, not you."Mr Stealthy frowns, still sipping at his own drink.>(More questions?)>Why haven't you called them? Are you stupid?>(Say your goodbyes and scarper.)>Other?>>3799746>who has Haki running constantly across their ass (on top of the sea)Sanjibob Armapants, duh.
>>3799755>Well am guessing you aint gonna come to Enies with us, so am just gonna go find sword hobo and you 2 have fun, cya at the ship Abs. Try to not burn down the island, I just know I'll get blamed for it.
>>3799755>>Why haven't you called them? Are you stupid?
>>3799746The things you learn after two years on Momoiro Island, huh?
Gotta sleeeeep, thanks for playing!
>>3799819byyyyyyyeeeeeeee
>>3799755>Might be good you didn't call them. Wouldn't surprise me if we have someone listening to your snails, you being new and even less trusted than the rest.
>>3799846+1
>>3799755>Why haven't you called them? Are you stupid?
CP9 in town, am nervous
Wait if there is no way of kaku knowing he is bound to go back to Enies then how would they know to send Wado there?
>>3799951Has QM confirmed that Kaku is getting it?
>>3799964no just heavily implied, since Wado is on route to EL to be picked up by a marine swordsman that is going to be involved int he EL kerfufle
THOUGH MAYBE IS GOING TO SPANDAM?!
>>3799994I don't know if this would be better or worse than Kaku.
>>3799994No way in hell. Pretty sure Funkfreed is the only living thing he's ever been semi-decent to.
>>3800021Better for us. Kaku could probably kick our ass without issue unless we bust out the logia. Also worse for us because Spandam is a whiny little shit who'd cry to Lucci.
>>3800034True, but he also has a high enough rank in the totally-doesn't-exist CP9 that he might be able to fudge himself as a swordsman good enough to warrant Wado. How he got that high in the ranks of a clandestine government organization given his pettiness, incompetence, and emotional outbursts is another question entirely.Or it's going to Giraffeguy Usopp-lookalike. Probably him actually.
>>3800694It's actually going to Funkfreed, he's going to wield it with his trunk.
>>3800817So if he becomes a sword when holding wado does he become a really long sword or a sword with a sword stuck on the end?
>>3800838Yes.
>>3800694Spandam was made to be a villain so how he got there is like how he became part of cp 0. Nobody knows and few care. He’s just a guy who is meant to be hated and beat up. I never really hated the guy though due to him hurting himself constantly and that his whole squad insults him constantly. He’s more funny and pathetic than most other villains so I can’t bring myself to hate the guy. He’s also really handsome and strong.
