The Clown Pirates have defeated a Marine crew. They fled the area and now have a small celebration for their victory.
"Captain, you'll surely get a bounty now, hahaha."-Cricket
"Hahaha, then I'll take it as a souvenir from West Blue."-Buggy
"How much do you think it is?"-Mantis
"I don't know, but it will surely be over 10 million."-Buggy
"Still, robbing a Marine Ship, I never heard pirates do it like us."-Cricket
"Well, Captain Roger do it soti when we defeat our enemies fast enough. It can reduce our cost to buy ammunitions, and sotis we even found treasures from a marine ship that have just defeated a pirate crew and take all their treasures."-Buggy
"Ooh, then we should do it more often."-Cricket
"Sure, if we have ti for it."-Buggy
"Hey Cricket, why did you take handcuffs too?"-Mantis said while inspecting their loots
"Well, I thought we can use it if we need to capture soone."-Cricket
"We are pirates, not marines, we won't capture anyone."-Mantis
"Handcuffs?"-Buggy
Buggy checks the handcuffs and tries to touch them one by one. When he touches one of the handcuffs, he suddenly feels very weak. He check the others and didn't get weakened, he only get weakened by one handcuff.
"They have a seastone handcuff, huh? Good."-Buggy grin
"Seastone?"-Mantis
"Yeah, a very strong mineral that can nullify a devil fruit power upon contact with the user."-Buggy
""What?!""-Cricket & Mantis
Buggy then explain to them about seastone briefly. He tells them about seastone's value and asks them to collect any seastone items that they find in the future. The 2 understand it and will make sure to collect any seastone item that they find.
Buggy then close the seastone handcuff and save the key. He covers the seastone handcuff with a cloth and takes it to his room. This seastone is really useful for him, he will use it for training. He's hoping to gain more from his training in a weakened state by seastone.
There's no such thing as a devil fruit user being immune from seastone's effect, but he will make sure that he's not so powerless if he is touched by seastone. He rembers Luffy gain a lot of muscle in Udon while working and wearing a seastone handcuff. Buggy will try it and he hopes that it will work.
The Clown Pirates continue their journey to the North Pole. They reach it at night, so they decide to rest first before resuming their journey. They sleep and wake up in the morning. They don't even need to call the Krakens because the giant octopuses have co out on their own.
"You know that we're here, huh?"-Buggy asked, and the Kraken nod
The Kraken then throws so giant fishes on the ground.
"Alright, alright, we know what you wanted."-Mantis
Mantis then starts to cook the giant fishes for the Krakens & the pirates.
"Krakens, actually we ca here to et you and ask for your help."-Buggy
"Rawr?"-Kraken Dad
"Yeah, we want to ask you to help us cross to West Blue through Calm Belt & Grandline."-Buggy
Buggy then explains how they'll cross to West Blue from here. The Krakens nods in understanding, then they all agree to help, they all want to help.
"I just need one, no need for every one of you to go with us."-Buggy
The Krakens then start to get into an argunt on who will help the Clown Pirates to cross. Their argunts got heated up and they even start to fight. Buggy is dumbfounded seeing this. The Kraken dad, mom, 2 sons, and a daughter are fighting.
"STOP!"-Buggy
The Krakens stop fighting and look at Buggy.
"Sigh, you guys are family, so don't fight like that! I know what you guys really want, it's to get good food as a reward right?"-Buggy
The Krakens look away in embarrassnt and scratch their head.
"Alright, here's the thing, I need soone who has a big mouth and can put the ship in it."-Buggy
The Krakens then look at each other and open their mouth as big as they can. Then the winner is the Kraken Big Brother. He is the biggest one on here, after all. He is almost twice the size of the other krakens. Buggy has a feeling that this Kraken Big Brother is the one that becos Luffy's friend (pet).
"Alright, we'll go with Kraken Big Brother. Don't worry though, you will still get so good als from Mantis."-Buggy
The other Krakens are disappointed, but they're still satisfied with the food. They have a big breakfast al together before the pirates leave with Kraken Big Brother. The Kraken can't swim on the surface, so they'll et near the Red Line & Calm Belt, the corner of North Blue.
On their way to the eting location, they find a floating wood barrel with soone in it. It's a girl that seems to be around Mantis age, 20 y.o. The girl seems happy when she see their ship and wave her hands. But then she pause after knowing that it's a pirate ship. She tries to move her barrel away, but she doesn't have anything to help her move it like a row.
"Why's she sailing with a barrel?"-Cricket
"She must be a wrecked ship survivor or sothing, help her up!"-Buggy
The pirates then take the barrel up to save the girl. However, the girl refuses to co out from the barrel. She doesn't want to co out because she's afraid of them. She said that pirates are cruel and they might 'eat' her later.
"Eat you? How will we 'eat' you?"-Cricket grin mischievously
"Y-you will p-put in a boiling water with so seasoning to make a soup, or maybe you will fry or roast , then you will eat while drinking your booze."-The girl said in a frightened voice
""Huh?""-The Clown Pirates have dark expression
"Who told you that?"-Buggy
"M-my Papa."-Girl
"Did he told you in detail like that?"-Cricket
"N-no, he just told that pirates & boys are like wolves, and they will eat . If you wanna eat , you need to cook after all."-Girl
'S-she doesn't understand it.'-Clown pirates
The pirates then decide to leave her alone and let her co out on her own later. Mantis also cooks sothing, because she knows the girl must be hungry. Then Mantis offers the food to the girl and the girl's stomach growl.
*GROOWLL~*
"Eat it! You haven't eaten for so ti right?"-Mantis
"N-no, I don't eat food from a pirate."-Girl said from inside the barrel
"E-A-T!"-Mantis said with a scary voice
"YES!"-The girl is scared and imdiately co out from the barrel to take the plate
The girl eats the food inside the barrel and finishes it fast. Then she takes her head out and thank Mantis for the food. She also praises Mantis' food and says that it's the best food that she ever taste.
"So, what happened to you? Why did you float around in a barrel-like that?"-Mantis
"W-well...."-The girl look at Buggy & Cricket warily
"Can you guys leave us for a mont?"-Mantis
"Hey, I am the Cap-"-Buggy
"L-E-A-V-E!"-Mantis said with a scary expression
""Yes, ma'am!""-Buggy & Cricket salute
Buggy & Cricket then leave the main deck hastily. Buggy goes to the rear deck, while Cricket goes to the crow nest. Then after they leave, the girl starts to te Mantis her story.
"M-My na is Ariella Jude, and the story happen 2 days ago."-Jude
