One Piece - Justice Of The Celestial Dragons

Chapter 14 - 14 - Meeting an old friend

A day passed by as they sailed through the seas towards Loguetown, and they were finally reaching it as they could see it in the horizon.

Sylver and Boa Hanc.o.c.k both raised their eyebrows slightly of what they were seeing, a bunch of marine battlesh.i.p.s that were stationed around of Loguetown. Sylver gave a short glance towards Bell-mere to see her also surprised.

"... Hanc.o.c.k, I told them to keep it silent, didn't I?" Sylver asked in a low voice, he didn't want to attract anyone, but with a dozen marine battlesh.i.p.s, anyone would be attracted. And that was something Sylver didn't want, as he knew he wasn't strong enough to face strong forces yet.

"... Yes... You did..." Boa Hanc.o.c.k was also surprised by this sight, it wasn't normal to see a dozen marine battlesh.i.p.s in one place other than the Navy Headquarters.

"Mhm..." Sylver squinted his eyes slightly as he glanced at a shadow near Loguetown.

"What is it, Darling?" Boa Hanc.o.c.k asked before also gazing towards the same place Sylver was staring at, but she couldn't see anything. It was only after a few moments that she also saw a shadow nearing them. "Who do you think they sent?" She could already guess that the Navy should have sent someone to protect them.

"I would say that they can't send an Admiral to protect us, for 2 reasons actually. First reason being that the Admirals has more important things to do than to baby-sit us, and the second reason is that it would attract the Underworld and the Four Emperors of the Seas. And I am pretty sure we can't handle that yet. Therefore, I think that they will send a Vice-Admiral that is very strong. And, I think exactly who it is it, haha." Sylver laughed a bit as he thought that he would meet with someone familiar.

Boa Hanc.o.c.k thought of it and nodded, everything Sylver said was very logical to her. And even Bell-mere that was listening to them speak not far away, couldn't help but be surprised by how Sylver thought things through.

As they spoke, the shadow in the horizon neared them. The shadow turned into a small figure, and barely in a minute, the figure landed on the deck, near Sylver and Boa Hanc.o.c.k. The figure was of a girl, she seemed to be in her late 20s, she had black hair that was reaching down to her waist, she had a katana on her back and she was wearing a marine outfit with a cloak of Justice on her back.

"Akira, I didn't think they would have sent you here." Sylver smiled as he greeted her with a smile. Even Boa Hanc.o.c.k had a small smile on her face as she saw one of her teachers.

Akira had stopped being their teacher around 3 years ago as she had begun her Navy career, and with her strength, she had managed to get a Vice-Admiral spot rather swiftly. Now she was only under the 3 Admirals and the Fleet Admiral in the Navy, and it only took her 3 years!

"Of course, I heard that you two brats will travel the seas and needed someone to baby-sit the two of you." Akira couldn't help but to laugh, she had lost her cold expression in front of these two 'brats'. Akira didn't forget to give a glance to Bell-mere and the two children hiding behind the mast, peeking their heads to gaze at her. "Who are those 3 civilians?"

"That's Bell-mere, mother of those 2 kids, Nojiko and Nami. Bell-mere is a marine retiree, and her children seems to be rather talented." Sylver introduced them with a small smile, he then turned towards Bell-mere, Nojiko and Nami, Sylver then pointed towards Akira. "And this is Akira, a Vice-Admiral, she was our teacher for a good while when we were younger. She might seem cold and distant, but she is actually a good person appericate other's who is hardworking." Sylver gave a short glance at Akira while smiling happily. Sylver could even hear Boa Hanc.o.c.k laughing and the 2 kids giggling behind the mast.

Akira gave a cold glance towards Sylver, before sighing a few moments later. "Then, do you have any plan? Or?"

"Mhm, I have a plan for now." Sylver gave a nod before speaking. "Me, Boa Hanc.o.c.k, you, Bell-Mere, Nojiko and Nami will be sailing together. We would need a decent ship that could handle the rough weather in Paradise. After we have entered Paradise, we will follow our route till Sabody. That's the rough plan I have settled on. Only 1 ship for now, having more will attract others." Sylver knew that he could trust the strength of their 'small' group, and wouldn't face troubles in Paradise unless something unexpected happened.

And whilst Sylver was talking to Akira and the others while sailing towards Loguetown, a bird was flying in the sky and there was a Den-Den-Mushi hanging on its neck.

None on the ship could sense the bird that was far away. And in half an hour, Sylver and the rest planted their feets on Loguetown.

Nojiko and Nami were both very excited, as they had never been onto another island. And the island they were now on was very beautiful and there were many people everywhere. Bell-mere tried her best in holding her 2 daughters back with a small smile.

Sylver glanced around, and as he did, he saw many hidden agents of the marines and the CP were around. Some were disgusing themselves as civilians, and others were simply in the darkness. This didn't bother Sylver, he gave a glance to Akira before saying. "Akira, go with Bell-mere, Nojiko and Nami. Nami and Nojiko might want to buy a few things. The money that will be used will be from my account, if it isn't enough, take from the Family account, I will speak with my parents about it if its needed at that time."

"What will the two of you do?" Akira didn't decline, but asked what they would do.

"I will take my fiancee on a date around this island." Sylver replied in a gentle tone as he gave a short glance to the happy Boa Hanc.o.c.k, that seemingly seemed to be in a daze and have pink cheeks. "Oh, how long will it take before our ship will be ready for us to travel?" Sylver then asked Akira, he wanted to know if they had to sleep overnight in Loguetown or not.

Akira answered as she knew exactly how long till the ship would be ready. "Your ship will be here in 4 hours, your parents told me that they hired one of the best shipwreights - Tom, to make your ship."

"I can't wait, a ship personally made by one of the bests shipwreights out there. We will meet back here in 4 hours, alright?" Sylver was happy that he would have a ship that belonged to him.
