Which hand do you use to draw

It was a long speech, and this time Fujitora didn't show up. He didn't have the Navy with him and was alone. Sengoku refused to help and even indicated that it would be better for the Straw Hats to just leave. Law had a talk with Sengoku while Luffy enjoyed sake with the new fleet.

It went as anticipated, but Sengoku actually bowed down and apologized. Not only for pushing Rosinante for the dangerous mission but also for being against saving Law. Sengoku realized that Law was just a child at that time, and he should have considered his well-being instead of going after the fruit.

Sengoku had enough pride to put the blame on higher-ups and admitted that he could have changed the course but refused to see that at the time. Ken was far, but he heard what Sengoku said.

Ken didn't expect that, because he believed that Sengoku would just apologize for Rosinante. But maybe the brainwashing of Sabo did have some good effects on him. Soon Merry flew down and the Straw Hats were ready to board. The people around served them tons of food, and Luffy was overjoyed seeing all the food.

Before leaving, Ken looked at Sengoku and whispered with the help of Nami's magic.

"Help Kuma. He needs saving."

Sengoku nodded. He didn't need to be told. Dragon had already contacted him to save Kuma. Kuma's changes were something he himself obliged to. It's just Kuma didn't expect a third party entering and neither did Vegapunk.

If he had known, he might have declined to help Bonney in the first place or maybe just do it for her for free. But what's done was done, and if Vegapunk wasn't able to save him, then Franky would be sent over to use his own intellect and brain to save him.

It took some hours, but everything was on board, and soon they were on their way. Unlike the original story, all of the Straw Hats were together, and Law asked for help to meet up in Zou. And along with Law, there were three more people.

Kinemon, Momonosuke, and Kanjuro. Kanjuro was found and helped by Kinemon. He was very happy to meet his old 'friend' and couldn't wait to meet the rest. Of course, even now Kinemon and others hadn't actually told the truth.

But Zoro and Sanji were getting a bit suspicious because of some words Kinemon and Momosuke had said, but they didn't pressure them to spill out. The ship sailed on the sea itself, following the vivre card of Bepo.

It was a good time as everyone was back in their rooms, doing their own thing. It would take some time for them to reach Zou, so everyone got engaged in their own world.

The next day was similar, but Ken decided to confront the big elephant in the room that had been lurking for some time. They were all in the huge hall and gazed at the open sea, some lying on the fake grass while others just had a good time in the sun. Jimbei was controlling the ship and thus he too was having a fun time.

Kanjuro, at the moment, was showing off his Devil Fruit and the fact that his drawings could come to life. Luffy and others were amazed, though Luffy labeled Kanjuro's trick as someone who was able to use ninjutsu, as he had once seen someone while living the life of Hiruzen doing that.

Kanjuro was happy that he was being seen in such high regard. As he was drawing, Ken suddenly asked him.

"Kanjuro, what hand do you use to fight with the sword?"

This made Kanjuro feel weird, but he replied without thinking too much.

"The right hand, of course."

"Hmmm... So your right hand is the primary and working hand of yours?" Ken asked again.

"Yes," Kanjuro replied again, not thinking much of it. But Ken's question caught the attention of Zoro, who was just sitting around and looking at his Zanpakuto.

"Then why are you drawing with your left hand?" he asked. This question suddenly made Kanjuro, who had been smiling all along, freeze up. This question came out of the blue.

"I... I..." Kanjuro stuttered.

"Some people can have two primary hands," Chopper replied.

"They do, but he has been using his left hand to draw such horrible art. I wonder why he isn't trying to draw with his right hand?" Sanji, who had just served food, said.

"Yes, yes, you spoke rightly. Maybe I should try and draw with my right hand. It might help in better art." Kanjuro was actually sweating when he replied. He was cursing inside as he said that.

When he got aboard the ship, he thought that these people were gullible. One just clamored about food, one just lazed around, one was with swords, and another with cooking. The others he ignored, but he didn't expect that one of them would be able to catch such a small aspect of his.

"Oye, Kanjuro, why are you sweating? Do you have a fever or something?" Kinemon asked, as he didn't suspect any foul play on his part since Kanjuro and he went way back in time. Ken just sighed, seeing how gullible Kinemon was.

This story was what caused a lot of problems for the Scabbards, and Ken was determined not to repeat what had gone down in Wano. He wanted to nip the problem in the bud and tear the mask off Kanjuro's face.

Kanjuro, in order to show and act that he was new to drawing, 'struggled' to draw new things. But Ken had enough of his acting, so he slowly pulled his Zanpakuto from its sheath and placed the blade right at Kanjuro's shoulder as he continued drawing.

The moment he did that, there was an eerie silence.
