Chapter 141
After the Revolutionaries left, Luffy jumped back on his ship and got welcomed by his crew. They all looked like they were about to tear up, but except for Chopper, nobody did. After they were done catching up, they looked at me.
'Zoro, Sanji, Nami, Usopp, Chopper, Franky, Koby, and two others are on his crew. But wait, why is Koby on his crew? Didn't he want to become a marine?'
I saw Zoro staring at my sword, Nami glaring at me, Koby looking at me with admiration, and Sanji looking at Robin and Boa Hancock with hearths in his eyes.
"Sup Strawhats, I hope my little brother isn't being a handful."
"N, n, no, o, of course not." said Usopp with sweat pouring down his forehead
"That's good to know, Usopp. You know, that attack that you fired at Sengoku was awesome. You might surpass your father one day."
"You know my father?"
"Of course. He is the sniper of the infamous Red Haired Pirates. Who doesn't know him?"
Usopp had stars in his eyes, thinking about how awesome his father is.
"Ey you, is that sword just for show, or do you know how to use it?" asked Zoro
"Why does it matter?"
"You coming back here unharmed after fighting Admirals means that you're really strong. If I beat someone as strong as you, I'll be able to challenge that guy again."
"Wait, Zoro, you shouldn't challenge him!" screamed Luffy in panic
"Hahahaha, what a funny joke. Someone who doesn't know Haki wants to fight me. How funny."
"Haki?"
"Unless you have Haki, you'll never survive in the New World. So fuck off, weakling."
I turned around and walked away while Zoro was screaming at me to come back. If it wasn't for his crew holding him back, he would have already attacked me.
"Boa Hancock, thank you for your help. All of you have been a great help."
"Hmph, you shouldn't have expected anything less." said Boa Hancock
"Hahaha, that such a, you, answer. Would you guys like to come back to my home? We're gonna have a party with lots of food."
"No, thank you."
"Ahh, you're such a party pooper. Well, whatever, I'll be visiting you soon to give you a present."
"Present, what is it?"
"It's a surprise."
"Hmph, I don't need your present."
I appeared behind her and smacked her on her back.
"Even if it gets rid of your special curse?" I whispered in her ear
I could see her slightly trembling. I jumped back to my ship and smiled at her.
"Have a safe journey."
She gave me one glance and then turned around. She told her subordinates to sail back home and entered her ship.
"Thud."
I turned around and saw Zoro standing there in his iconic Three Sword Style.
"Fight me!" he screamed
"Ey Luffy, why did you let him go?" I asked
"You told me that you have to learn some things the hard way." he said with a grin
"You sneaky brat. Ey weakling, you should give up on this fight."
"How would you know if I'm weak? You've never seen me fight."
"I heard that you lost against Mihawk while he was using the smallest blade he could find. That sounds pathetic."
"I've gotten much stronger since then!"
"Oh really? Are you able to beat Luffy?"
"It will be a close fight."
"Ey Luffy, can you beat me?"
"Of course not! But just you wait! I'll beat Shanks up, and then I'll beat the three of you up!" screamed Luffy
"In your dreams!" screamed Ace, Sabo, and I
"Well, there you have it. Still wanna go?"
"Yes."
"Sigh, alright, give me your best move."
"I'll slice that smug face of yours into pieces."
He got in his stance and glared at me while I was almost about to fall asleep.
"108 Pound Phoenix!"
He sent three blue slashes towards me that collided with my chest. The moment they hit me, they got destroyed, and there wasn't even a small scratch to be seen. He looked shocked but still came running at me. He started slashing at my upper body and face, but I didn't even get one scratch no matter what he did.
After 10 more minutes of this, he was completely out of breath. I dusted myself off and was thinking about how I could teach this guy a lesson.
"Was that it?"
"I, I'm not done yet." he said as he almost fell onto the ground
'Time for some good ol' fear.'
He looked at me like he was looking at his worst nightmare. I grabbed his throat and started choking him.
"How funny. You were just boasting about how strong you were, but now you're looking even more pathetic than before. But let me tell you som-"
While I was talking, his eyes suddenly went to the back of his head, and his head slumped down.
"Uh Luffy, I might have accidentally killed him."
"WHAT!?"
I threw his lifeless body towards Luffy. After he caught him, Chopper immediately started trying to revive him.
"This is bad! I don't think I can get his heart to beat again!" screamed Chopper
"Ugh, not again." said Deuce
He appeared next to Zoro's body.
"Out of the way, I've become a specialist at reviving people."
He placed his hand on Zoro's heart, and the next second, Zoro sprung up as if he just woke up from a nightmare.
"I'm sorry about my Captain. He doesn't know how to hold back. I've had to restart a lot of hearts after spars." said Deuce
The Strawhats looked at me like I was a demon. Especially Zoro.
"Hehe. Ey Luffy, would you like to come with me to the New World? There is plenty of meat there."
"MEAT!?"
'Too easy.'
"Hahaha, you never change."
'Stupid butterfly effect. I thought that it would play out as it did in the original story and that they would get separated for training, but that won't happen now. What should I do?'
"Captain, how did you get Kaido in this situation?" asked Laffitte
"The same way I also put Deuce in that situation."
"Huh?" said Deuce
"Do you remember when we were just starting our journey? I think we were still in the East Blue. I used a super-secret technique, and the next second you were flying into the air."
Ace, Sabo, and Deuce had their jaws hit the floor.
"You actually used 'that' on him!?" said Sabo
"You're at the pinnacle of evil." said Ace
"I still get nightmares about that day." said Deuce
"What is it? What did he do?" asked Tani
Sabo and Ace were about to open their mouth when Deuce covered them with his hands.
"Don't speak, or I'll electrocute both of you."
The next second, a full-blown battle happened, and everyone got dragged in, even the strawhats and giants.
"Ey Laffitte, how long will it take to get home?"
"If we use Robert's fruit, 2 days." said Laffitte
"And without?"
"About a week."
"Make it 4 days." said Jinbe
"Alright, I'll be counting on the both of you to get us there in 4 days."
They nodded and immediately got to work. I was about to get something to eat when someone collided with me.
"Damn you, Urouge! I'll get you back, just you wait!" screamed Dobby Ibadonbo
"Do I look like a seat to you?"
"Huh?"
He looked down at me and immediately turned pale. He turned into sand and tried to get away, but I grabbed him before he could.
"It seems like I'll have to teach all of you how to behave on my ship."
I started releasing some pressure, and everyone started backing off till they couldn't anymore. I ran towards them with Dobby in my hand and started beating everyone up.
'Ahh, it feels good to trample over weakling sometimes."

[What kind of people do you want the remaining two strawhats to be? Fighters, cleaners, prostitutes?
And any thoughts about bounties for the Azure Pirates?]
