Third Person POV
Fish-n Sland.

"You want my family to join you?" Katakuri said suspiciously.
"You have another choice? But I don't want you to beco directly part of my fleet. After all, you'll be operating from a specific base, which is your base. You can say we'll beco allies." Luffy said.
Katakuri could be like Ace, acting as an ally, but still with Luffy in command. The Yonko positions would be free for him and the other Yonkos that he fought and defeated, so he had faith that Ace and Katakuri could take on this position in the future.
"Why are you doing this and why do you think I'd accept, this is very strange." Katakuri murmured looking at Luffy. The subordinates of this man had defeated him easily, he clearly wanted to make him and his family into subordinates just like he imagined.
"Because I have faith in your potential and I'll need it in the final war." Luffy said.
"Final war?" Katakuri narrowed his eyes.
"A battle that will happen in the future, the whole world against us, I need all the allies who can fight by my side. It won't be just one battle and you won't be able to escape from it, that's why I want us to beco allies and for you to follow in this fight along with your family. Even if you think I'm using you here, I'll repeat that it will involve the entire world and you won't have a choice." Luffy said with his arms crossed.
"..." Katakuri was sitting on his saddle with his high knees below his elbows, hiding his teeth, sothing he didn't show to anyone.
"My family... how many of my siblings... died in this war?" He asked with more seriousness than anything else.
"Don't worry, no one died, all were spared, at least the mbers of the Charlotte family, now your allies and soldiers, well, a lot of them died." Luffy said.
"I see... that's good." He seed relieved to hear that.
"If I accept your proposal... will you let my siblings go free?" Katakuri added this question.
"Yes... your whole family will be released, as long as I get so information from them, like your sister. Pudding, she needs to give the mory of your red poneglyph." Luffy requested.
"I see... that sounds reasonable and all you ask is that we beco allies and fight in your final battle? And mama?" Katakuri asked again just to make sure Luffy wouldn't leave anything out of his requirents.
"Exactly, but you'll have to follow so rules, after all I'm not a big fan of Big Mom killing a bunch of people just for petty reasons like not showing up to her tea parties. As for your mother, she'll be imprisoned and won't leave custody again. You'll take over leadership of the Big Mom Pirates and I advise you to just change the na, you know, continuing that na with you in command would be strange, try sothing like the Great Charlotte Family or sothing like that." Luffy said, shrugging.
"I see..." Katakuri seed thoughtful, he was considering everything, did he even have a choice to begin with? He had an opportunity at this mont.
"Your lands were attacked by Blackbeard..." Luffy suddenly said, seeing him deep in thought as Katakuri looked at the man, his hat nowhere in sight, stunned.
"There were still mbers of my family there...!" He stood up with a tone of urgency.
"I don't really know. All I know was reported in the newspaper. And even if it wasn't reported, so information reached ." Luffy replied and continued.
"I know they took the red Poneglyph kept in the vaults of your mother's castle, but the place looked pretty destroyed. I haven't had ti to check yet."
"Damn." Katakuri seed quite nervous as he clenched his fists. There were siblings who couldn't go to war when their mother summoned them for the battle at Onigashima.
"You want this, Katakuri? To protect your family? But just that is not enough." Luffy spoke to him again.
"Seriously, you will now have to beco far more powerful than you've ever been. You must reach your mother's level and surpass it. Only then will you protect your family.
Because we will still be allies, and I'll help when I can. But we won't be your babysitters. You'll have to survive the New World without Big Mom. Are you prepared for that? Are you willing to accept my offer?" He asked with a serious look.
Katakuri no longer even cared to hide his face after what he heard about his holand. He looked at Monkey D. Luffy and nodded slowly.
"I accept your offer, Straw Hat. Free and my siblings. I will beco strong and fight by your side when the ti cos, along with my family."
"Great." Luffy gave a smile. "I'll have soone free you and your family. anwhile, gather everyone in Alabasta, we'll have a eting with you all, and you may leave after that. After all, I'll have to explain so things I expect from you."
Katakuri nodded... with so doubts still. But also confident. They would let his family go and take care of what happened with the destruction Blackbeard must have caused to reach the Poneglyph.
Leaving Katakuri's room, Luffy kept walking through the prison as he headed toward the next group, finding a Lunarian training while punching the air with force.
"You look busy." Luffy said, standing in front of him.
King didn't even look at Luffy, continuing to punch the air.
"Co to mock us, Straw Hat?" He muttered, still punching.
Luffy just gave a small smile. "You know... I heard so stories about you, King. You were captured by the World Governnt and used as an experint. No wonder they now have weapons made based on your genetics."
Luffy began, while King stopped his strikes, narrowing his eyes, wondering where Straw Hat was going with this.
"Surely it couldn't have been easy for you. And I'm sorry for that. But I also heard that this sa boy imprisoned by the Governnt for years was searching for the return of Joy Boy. That one day he would return to free the world." Luffy left the question hanging.
"What do you know about that? Joy Boy is just a myth..." He muttered.
"You say that because you were unconscious and didn't know what happened in the battle. Did soone tell you it wasn't who defeated Kaido?" Luffy asked.
"I heard sothing... I heard it was your sister." He muttered, rembering that the n who put him in prison had comnted about it.
Luffy nodded. "Yes. She awakened her fruit... a mythical Zoan. And not a Paracia, like everyone thought. Do you believe there's a Zoan capable of turning soone into a god?"
Luffy said calmly, looking directly at him.
"What do you an by that?" King was confused.
"I'm saying that my sister's fruit... it's actually called, Hito Hito no Mi, mythical type: model God Nika. The sa power Joy Boy used 800 years ago. And everyone who has the ability of the Voice of All Things in the world felt the drums of liberation the mont she awakened... declaring that Joy Boy had returned." He explained.
King seed surprised by that. There was a feeling in him… the feeling of wanting to believe it imdiately, but there was still a lot of distrust.
"And what do you want with all this?" King looked seriously again, still unsure where Straw Hat was going with all of this. Not knowing that his na had already changed... That is, Straw Hat was no longer on his head, but rather given to the Joy Boy of this era.
"It's very simple. I want you to join , under my flag. Beco a mber of my fleet and help in the Final Battle." Luffy said.
"So... you do want to recruit after all. And what do you an by 'Final Battle'?" He asked. He wasn't too surprised by the first part—after all, it was understandable. But... turning his back on Kaido? Wouldn't that be the sa as betraying him? The man who saved him?
"The Final Battle will be for the liberation of this world. A war that will involve everyone. Don't you want the chance to fight against the World Governnt? Avenge everything they did to you? And stop anyone else from suffering what you suffered? You know very well… your race was entirely exterminated by them. You may be the last of your kind." Luffy said.
"You really think you can handle all those monsters?" King muttered.
"You believed Kaido could. And we are stronger than Kaido. You didn't even have a chance, and we still had a fight you weren't even aware of. The World Governnt sent a considerable force to destroy us… and we still won." He said.
"..." King stayed silent for a few seconds, thinking about it—it didn't seem like a lie, after all.
"What happened to Kaido?" He asked.
"Kaido is now being kept prisoner. And I won't give him freedom. That's because I doubt I can control him, even being stronger." Luffy comnted, knowing Kaido was far too proud to try to follow soone's orders—he wasn't as young as he was during the ti of Rocks.
Luffy planned to use Kaido and Big Mom at another ti, but, for now, he would keep them imprisoned.
"I see..." King seed a bit frustrated at that mont. But what else could he do? Maybe... maybe he could have a chance at revenge. Finally fight against the Celestials and the World Governnt, like Kaido once planned.
"If you don't want to be in my fleet, you can just beco an ally. But in that case, you won't have an island to protect and you'll have to stay here. You don't need to use my flag… but I will need you in this Final Battle." Luffy said.
"...No." King shook his head. "I'll accept. I'll be part of your fleet." He decided, as Luffy nodded, satisfied with that.
"Great. I'll have soone release you. But for now, I have other people I want to talk to. I also want to know who from Kaido's group I can bring to my side and who might betray us." Luffy said, leaving the cell as he moved on to the next person he wanted to visit.
Luffy kept walking through the prison until he found Page One in front of a cell.
"Sorry big sis..." Page One murmured.
"You defeated , you bastard! Is this how you thank after all this ti, I tried to save you, but you were corrupted by those pirates when they captured you in paradise!" Ulti complained, stomping her foot while the seastone chain clinked.
"But we were enemies. Big sis..." Page One tried to defend himself.
"I don't want to hear it!" Ulti snapped.
"Hey, can you guys be a little quieter? I'm trying to sleep here..." Queen muttered from another cell.
Luffy raised an eyebrow at that and hoped King would pass along the nas of those he could trust—they'd be great allies and his fleet would beco even stronger—but now he had sothing else to deal with.
After all, he was about to begin Operation Sword.
First, he would deal with the ex-admiral Zephyr—it was ti to create the new marine force and he would lend a hand with that, placing his sister in command of the new marine force.
With Zephyr and Fujitora with her, Garp, Coby, and the others would join too, making it an even more powerful force.
