Title: No-Name...
….
As Robin feels overwhelmed by Jaw’s presence, she still has enough will to say. “N -No problem.”
As she says that, Jaw pats her on the head and says. “Ok, see you later.”
After saying that he starts walking towards the amusement park, Robin has no idea what he meant by seeing her later.
….
At this time in the New World, close to York New island, the place where Jaw’s main base. In a ship, there was a man with spiky red hair and he was looking at the seemingly defenseless island.
He is the rookie pirate with a bounty of 305,000,000 B, Eustass Kid. He has a smile on his face while looking at Jaw’s island. “Well, the New World ain’t that bad of a place. As long as you are not some weakling. C’mon now boys, we will attack the York New island, we will officially start attacking a Yonko now, so we are no longer gonna have it as easy.”
“Captain, shouldn’t we investigate and get some more information on Jaw, he is after all a Yonko. Even though his island might seem defenseless, we can never be too sure.” Says Killer, being the voice of reason in this situation.
“We don’t know if we will ever get an opportunity like this. So we MUST take this chance.” Says Kid, he has already done some sightseeing in the other Yonko’s territories. But till now, Jaw seems to be the one with fewer defenses than any other.
….
After an hour, back on fishman island, Luffy and Naruto just finished eating a lot of ice cream at a shop, and with satisfied smiles on their faces, they lie back.
“Thanks for the ice cream.” Says Naruto with a smile on his face.
Luffy looks at him with a confused look on his face and says. “What do you mean? I thought you were paying?”
“What!!!” Yells Naruto, he is shocked, but once he sees everyone else in the shop looking at him he smiles uncomfortably. “Sorry, sorry, nothing to look at here.”
He then looks at Luffy and says. “What do you mean by no money? You know that I had Zoro and Dead Cat go and exchange the gold we had for beri.”
Luffy shrugs at this. “I dunno, I thought you had this under control… what should we do?”
“Do you need anything?” Says a mermaid waitress as she comes to their table. Naruto looks at her uncomfortably and says. “N -No mam…”
“Okay~ call me over if you need anything.” Says the pretty mermaid as she winks at Naruto. He is completely oblivious to this as he turns to yell at Luffy.
“What are we gonna do?!?!? Even a crime like stealing ice cream has the harshest punishments in this.” Says Naruto totally panicked.
Luffy has a serious look on his face. “There is no choice then… we must-”
Cling!
Before he could finish saying anything, a bag of golden coins lands on their table, and a voice says.
“I will pay for your snacks.” As soon as Naruto hears that voice his face pales, and everyone in the ice cream shop stops eating too and looks at the man who is so tall he casts a shadow over both Luffy and Naruto.
“Oh, thank you.” Says Luffy with a smile on his face as he looks at the tall blue-skinned fishman with strange eyes and a shark-like smile on his face.
“No problem,” Says the man as he drags over a seat and sits down next to Naruto, his arm then goes over Naruto’s shoulder and with a casual voice says. “How have you been son…”
Naruto is extremely uncomfortable at this, Luffy still doesn't know who is exactly talking to, but he can still feel a slight weight on his shoulders just standing in front of Jaw.
“Who are you?” Asks Luffy out of curiosity.
“Jajajajajajaja…” Jaw laughs at this, he can read the kid in front of him clearly, he can see that Luffy is quite nervous and can feel the passive Haki that Jaw is releasing. It makes people subconsciously fear him, or even make the strongest of warriors have their wills broken as they look at him. “My name is Jaw, what about you kid?”
Luffy frowns as he hears the name, it sounds familiar to him, but he still just can’t remember where he has heard it. Still, Luffy answers Jaw’s question. “My name is Monkey D. Luffy and I am gonna be King of the Pirates.”
“JAJAJAJAJAJAJAJA…” Jaw laughs even more loudly at that, the whole ice cream shop shakes as he laughs. To him, it seems like the funniest joke that he ever heard, as if he knows something that no one else does. This annoys Luffy a little, but Jaw then stops laughing so loudly and looks at Luffy with a chuckle. “Well, good look on that kid. Hopefully, you will one day find when you are looking for.”
Though he says that, he knows that it’s impossible for anyone to find Laugh Tale anymore. He has found it already, and he made sure that no one else will ever reach that place again. Even if they somehow were able to get all of the Road Poneglyphs…
Naruto on the other hand looks at his father with wide eyes. He knows that his father wouldn’t laugh at something like this.
‘Don’t tell me…’ Ponders Naruto, he is shocked hearing this. He sees his father give him a smug side glance as if he already knew what Naruto was thinking. At this, naruto is now 100% sure that his assumption is correct. ‘No way…’
“Anyway, what island do you guys plan to visit after entering the New World?” Asks Jaw as he calls over the waitress and orders some ice cream for himself.
“Huh? We can choose which island we can go to?” Questions Luffy and Jaw nads at this as he eats a scoop of ice cream.
“Yep. Your navigator would know for this. But the New World is a cool place with a lot of different islands. Even I haven’t explored every single one of them yet.” Says Jaw, now more concentrated on the ice cream than Luffy. He has already seen how far Luffy would go. ‘Fate is a changing thing, people who rely on something like that are stupid. It’s like relying on luck to survive.’
….
At this time in the New World, around York New island, a ghost ship sets sail. It has the flag of the Kid Pirates, it is their ship after all… and every single Kid Pirate Crew member is crucified in the ship, they were already all dead, even their captain as their corpses were rotting and flies went all around them.
…
From a skyscraper, Kisame looks at his own handy work. “Well, that should send a warning to any Rookie Pirate fool daring to come around here again... unless they are here to bow down so hard that their head will crack open in the pavement.”
He then turns around and goes back inside the tower, he has more important things to do today than take care of some no-name pirate.”
