Monet: "Arthur, one of three Marine's Admiral entering the South Blue waters." This shocking news from Monet interrupts their dinner in Athena after their return from Flevance.
Arthur: "I didn't expect Sengoku-Jiji to give his orders. Who's coming?"
Monet: "Admiral Akainu, Sakazuki."
Arthur: "Hem ... If we can't avoid it then we better meet him in the middle of the sea to reduce his movements because of the devil fruit he has."
Arthur believes that he will be able to hold off Akainu if they fight. If he had gotten the Zoan type devil fruit he wanted, then he would be more confident that he will win over Akainu. Arthur knew that the three Admirals this time are more focused on developing their devil fruit than their fighting techniques and body training. But of course, they couldn't be considered weak without devil fruit.
Arthur: "Of all of you, who wants to fight an Admiral?" Arthur smiled slightly as he asked this and looked at his three wives.
Hancock: "Finally you gave us a chance for a challenging battle. Though I still haven't completely forgiven you for yesterday, Arthur. Hmph. "
Arthur: "When we meet the fleet led by Admiral Akainu, I'll be on guard in Athena. Of course, I won't let anything happen to Arthoria, Lancelot, and Merlin as well. " Arthur raised Lancelot high up which made him laugh.
Lancelot: "Pa! Ha ha ha ha!"
Sabo: "Captain, can we use our second devil fruit power?" Sabo is excited to try his new powers.
Arthur: "I know that you guys really want to fight using all your strength, but this time please be patient, I still don't want anyone to know about my power which can give you the chance to eat more than one Devil Fruit." Arthur answered while put down Lancelot sit beside Merlin and Arthoria.
Law: "We can use the two-man-cell team division that captain Arthur gave us before."
Bepo: "Ay, this time I will get a higher bounty. Law, don't take all the attention this time." Bepo was the first to get excited if there was an opportunity to increase his bounty.
Monet: "Even though Admiral Akainu only carries one ship, but I'm sure that the members who accompanied him must be stronger than when we fought the marine in the Sorbet kingdom. Ah! Speaking of the Sorbet empire, I remember about your little friend, Arthur. " Monet, who was in charge of managing Arthur's underground organization, suddenly remembered the information he had recently received.
Arthur: "Little Big Eater - Bonney?"
Monet: "She disappeared and all the soldiers of the Sorbet kingdom were deployed to search for her all over the island but have not been able to find her."
Arthur: "Disappeared? … Most likely it was because of her devil fruit and the world government that kidnapped her. Do you have any information about the world government ships in the South Blue waters? " Although Arthur thought this might happen, he was a little surprised by how fast the world government was moving.
Monet: "I only know that there is a more active CP member movement on the islands around the Sorbet kingdom."
Robin: "Do you want to help her, Arthur?" It's not just Robin who knows that Arthur is interested in Bonney, although not in love interset, not right now.
Arthur: "I believe that we will meet her again in the future. So, for now, I want you to prepare to face Admiral Akainu. "
All Poneglyphs in South Blue have been copied and read by Robin, so their trip this time only focuses on finding the Devil Fruits they are after or interesting ones. The more eyewitnesses who saw Athena sailing in South Blue made the pursuit by the Marine closer to Arthur and the others.
And in the end, on a bright day, the two parties met. They could see the fleet of ships from a distance and getting closer. Law, who is in charge of the communications and radar room, can clearly see the marine ship with the periscope. He immediately sounded an alarm indicating the enemy was visible in the distance and went off to get ready with the others.
Law: "Captain, the marine fleet is visible from 4 o'clock and moving closer and closer." Law who came out onto the deck immediately pointed to the direction where he saw a marine ship approaching.
Bepo: "Captain, are we going to use [Jet Dials]?" A little panicked Bepo immediately went behind the steering wheel to get ready to use the Jet dial.
BANG!
There was a lump on Bepo's head after receiving a punch from Hancock. There was no way Hancock wanted to run away when the fighting opportunity they had been waiting for finally arrived. Hancock immediately scolded Bepo for being afraid of fighting even though he previously wanted to get a higher bounty. While the ART Pirates still took their time to see Bepo who was having bad luck, chunks of magma meteor had flown towards Athena.
Monet took out two knives that [Mark] had given her. One she threw far behind Athena and the other towards the lava meteor which was still flying towards Athena. The special knife that Arthur made would not break easily just because of a chunk of magma.
Monet: "[Swap]"
Arthur: "Good job, Monet. You can move to or move the moving [Mark] position. "
BANG!
The meteor that had been fly straight to Athena suddenly disappeared and appeared again far behind Athena and an explosion of water vapor appeared when the magma meteor met seawater.
Hancock: "Finally I can vent all my annoyance." White wings appeared on Hancock's back and with a light jump sent her flying through the air.
Robin: "Take care of Merlin and the others, Arthur. [Geppo]. " Robin also jumped in the air and moved closer to the marine ship.
Arthur: "Of course ... Monet, be careful." Without waiting for an answer from Arthur, Robin was already moving away from Athena.
Monet: "I know that my Busoshoku Haki is not as strong as those two, so I will help them from behind and prepare to move them in case of danger. I also still have a lot of knives with Sea-Stone, so don't worry too much. [Swap]. " Monet also left by instantly disappearing from Arthur's front.
Arthur: "Baby-5, you can also fight against Akainu by invisible and waiting for a chance to attack or help them."
Baby-5: "Without you asking, I also have the same intention." Baby-5 sprouted wings on her back go flew off and then disappeared with her [Fairy Dust].
