Is this the second chap today? I forgot... if it is, sorry for the lateness.

The crew took a bit to digest everything Hiro said, Yami in particular frowned at his words. Sanji said "Your parents are Emperors!?" Yami replied "I didn't know this either." Zoro said seriously "Right now, we have a bigger problem to worry about. Because of that Vice-Admiral, we're in a rough spot."

The rest of the Crew was silent and Luffy said "When the new ship is done, we're leaving. It's not a big deal, we'll just beat everyone who comes. I will not run away from a few fake pirates from the New World!" he looked at the crew and said with surprise maturity "Even if Yami's dad is an Emperor, he won't help us. I don't want his help either. I believe in all of you, that's why you're on my crew."

They looked at him silently, slightly shocked on the inside, as he continued "Beating people stronger than us will make us stronger, whoever comes we will fight. I am the Captain and I will protect all of you, even if I have to die. You're all my friends, I will not let you die, not while I'm alive." the crew was silent and their eyes watered, Sanji turned away and clicked his tongue "Who needs you to protect us." as he wiped his eyes secretly.

Zoro sniffed and looked to the side, adding "You're too stupid to do that." Nami cried and looked at Luffy with care and happiness, Robin wiped her eyes and smiled "We won't just stand by while you fight, Luffy." Chopper hugged Luffy's leg and cried "That's right! Bastard! We'll fight together!"

Yami smiled wordlessly and Yachiru smiled gently, adding "We're not weak, Luffy! We can beat everyone with you!" Luffy's eyes watered and he grinned "Thank you. Thank you all!" they all smiled and started doing their own thing.

The first thing they started doing was training. Yami left 10 yr tokens on the table, he only took the 10 yr ones, unfortunately. Though they were extremely beneficial, Yami lamented on the fact that he didn't steal the best ones, 50 years of experience! No matter the method or increase in abilities, that was still 50 years!

He didn't use the Tokens himself as he felt that he didn't need them, he knew how to train and taking a shortcut might fuck everything up. Zoro felt the same way, it wasn't suitable for them because they trained the sword, but for the others it was really good.

Yachiru used it on her Size fruit

Nami used it on her Bo Staffplay

Robin used it on her fruit

Sanji used it on his Fighting style

Chopper used it on his rumble ball knowledge

and Luffy... he didn't use it at all, or rather, refused to use it. It was a shortcut he didn't want to take. The rest got in depth overviews of how their power increased and Robin explained that it was like showing them what they were capable of while loosely etching the memories into a muscle memory.

The ones who used it, quickly figured out that it wasn't so magical to give them direct power-ups. They still had to train afterwards, albeit, briefly. The token gave them access but like everything from the system, they still had to do the work themselves. It was the definition of 'No free lunches', thankfully, they only needed to train for a bit before the token was completely integrated with them.

They could use all the new moves and experience like it was second nature now, giving them significant increases to their power. If they were to be on a scale, Yami would be the highest, then Yachiru, then Luffy, and the rest hovered around Luffy's level.

Like Yami was a hypothetical 10, Yachiru was a 9.5, Luffy was an 8 and the rest were 8-7.5.

Of course, the numbers varied greatly because, they all had different fighting styles that could be more effective to a certain enemy than the others. Like Luffy was much stronger than the rest against Enel, for example.

Regardless, their training session was finished and they got word that their ship was finished. Yami sent a message to Usopp secretly, informing them of their departure date a few days ago. The group went to the scrapyard and the Merry was nowhere in sight, instead there was an absolutely massive tarp there.

Like it was huge!

Franky was nowhere is sight, but Iceburg was there and revealed the ship with a smile, knowing that they were in a hurry. He explained that Franky wasn't coming because he would most likely leave with them if he came. The crew frowned and Luffy said "Don't worry, he'll be here." Iceburg smiled and nodded, saying "This is your new ship, it doesn't have a name, but I like to call it 'Thousand Sunny'." as he pulled the tarp, revealing a massive ship with a lion on the front that looked like a Sunflower.

The crew was awed and cheered before boarding the ship excitedly. Yami smiled and got on, Iceburg explained "This ship is probably the most expensive and illegal ship I've ever made, but it is, without a doubt, the best ship in the entire world. The entire thing is made with Adam, Eve, and Lilith wood, which is illegal and extremely expensive on the black market. The sails are made from a special Walrus' skin which makes them extremely tough and flexible. The glass is from Star Sand which can only be found in the deepest parts of the ocean. Even the chairs are made from the treasure woods and clouds that were provided."

Iceburg smiled and said "Honestly, even I'm tempted to leave with you all. This ship is the most beautiful ship I've ever seen in my entire life." The crew was stunned and Yami smiled saying "Dad." they nodded understandingly and were about to explore when there was a commotion and a shout "STRAW HAT!"

Luffy turned around and caught the speedos that came flying at him, Franky ran over in the nude and shouted "Give 'em back, Straw Hat!" Luffy grinned "Not until you join my crew!" Franky nibbled on his lips and the rest of the Franky family showed up, urging him to leave with them and crying at their departure.

Franky started crying and after a long speech, he got on board.

There was another event and Usopp ran over, shouting in pure terror "Guys! Guys! Guys! This is bad! Really bad!" they all looked at Usopp and Luffy said "What are you here for?" Usopp jumped on board and said "I'll apologize later! We need to fucking leave, NOW!"

The crew was stunned and Iceburg frowned, getting a call on his snail. His eye widened and he said "Straw Hats! Leave now!" Franky started up the Sunny, skipping over the introductions and Yami went to the back of the ship, he had an uneasy feeling since this morning.

Iceburg shouted at the snail "Hide the materials! Evacuate the ship yards and retreat to the town square! Gather the civilians! IMMEDIATELY!" he ran back and shouted at the Franky Family "Help!" they started scrambling and moving people around as canon balls, blew up the scrapyard the Crew just set sail from.

Marine ships started sailing in and a loud voice came over the speakers "Hand over the Straw Hat pirates! We have authorization to open fire!" Iceburg was enraged, Water7 was completely surrounded.

Luffy's eyes widened and said "We have to go back!" Franky clenched his teeth and said "It's no use, that's a Naval fleet bigger than I've ever seen! We need to go!" Yami said "Fuck me! Hopefully this doesn't bit me in the ass." everyone looked at him and his clothes changed to his Shihakusho.

He said "Escape, I'll stall them. Bastards." as he jumped off the ship into the air, muttering "End the World, Crimson Demon King!" he didn't don the armor but his scarves turned to pink flames, he slashed out at the marine ships and burned them all while splitting them in half.

He looked at them and Magma started boiling around as fists rained down on Yami, who spun Crimson from the scarf and held it in front of him, making a shield over Water7, blowing up the magma fists and looking at the man with a Marine cap.

He sneered "My flames are hotter than Magma, you clown." The man chuckled and said "Is that so?" he threw out his fists but this time they were black. Yami did the same but the pressure was much more heavy and actively started slashing them but the Armament Haki was protecting the Magma inside and intensifying the heat to bee much hotter than normal.

Yami's Bankai made his temperature the heat of the SURFACE of the sun, roughly 5505 Celsius. Magma was roughly 1200 Celsius, simple math says heat of the Surface of the Sun is hotter, right? Hah, yes. Except, this guy was smarter than he looked.

Yami frowned at the new Haki infused Magma fists. Because of the body's iron levels along with the Haki fusing together, he estimated that the Magma fists from this man could get somewhere near the heat of the Core of the Earth.

THE CORE OF THE EARTH!

A.K.A: 11000 Fahrenheit or roughly 6093 Celsius! Which was hotter than the heat of he SURFACE of the Sun, but not the inner layers. Unfortunately Yami was currently capped at the Surface heat, which meant that he was at a disadvantage against the 'Magma'.

Yami didn't know how this man came to the conclusion that his Magma could get so hot, most likely he had studied on Earth's geographical heats, because the Core of the Earth was Molten metal, but Magma was molten rock.

Yami's brain was running at a million miles a second, his body turned to Magma, which means the Iron in his body and the magma are mixing constantly, theoretically he could produce such heats and make the Magma evolve into Molten Metal Magma.

Yami cursed and slashed out, this wasn't good, he was at too much of a disadvantage. Obviously, this marine couldn't care less about casualties. Yami didn't want anyone from Water7 to get hurt, these fists could sink the entire Island!

He heard Luffy call him "YAMI! COME BACK! WE'RE GOING!" Yami nibbled on his lips and slashed horizontally 12 times, blocking the Marines' views and destroying as many ships as he could before fleeing.

It wasn't a good feeling, he could only pray that the Marines would chase them instead of taking out their anger on Water7. He closed his eyes and muttered "I'm sorry before running back to the ship as it blasted air from the back and flew away into the sky, escaping the Marine encirclement.
