Business as usual meaning never a dull moment on the Grand Line

[justicereigns]

doubt_me Count me in on this game Wolf.

Whoever is on deck swabbing duty, please make sure to deal with the blood stain appropriately.

I have a special job and I'm taking volunteers.

Tashigi, I got one. Her name is Suzie. And I used the jitte. It's weaker, but thanks. I'll just get stronger.



Karen, a word?
Yuzuriha, Pearl, Trucy, Happy, Lala, likewise, a word please.
Nevan, when are you leaving and when are you getting back?

Tsuzuki is in the infirmary. It better not be for long. All marines are to be on notice and keep an eye out for anything suspicious. Should you see something that fits the description, report it to me immediately.

There's a storm front coming and I want all able hands ready at a moment's notice. It looks to be lethal.

Garp... No. Forget it.

To pirate scum? Go to hell. No exceptions.

...Stop who? The Wolf?

[justicereigns]

Yes.

Do what you want, but if you're not in my district, someone needs to remind them to work together or they're just sheep for slaughter.

[key-destination.livejournal.com]

Right...I'll do that.

[justicereigns]

Thanks Roxas, you're a pretty good guy.

[key-destination.livejournal.com]

...Thanks.

[justicereigns]

Any leads on the heartless?

[key-destination.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I have a bigger lead now. I heard them trying to get into the dark corridor when I helped Ace out.

[justicereigns]

Portgas? Oh that's right... some fruit mishap or whatever. Idiot.

Hn. If they can try to get into a dark corridor... what does that mean?

[key-destination.livejournal.com]

They're held up somewhere trying to get in.

...But, it's weird because Heartless always have access to the Darkness since they live in it.

[justicereigns]

So something is containing the darkness?

.............
Blackbeard.

[key-destination.livejournal.com]

Not the Darkness. It's the Heartless that are stuck somewhere.

...Who?

[justicereigns]

Stuck behind the darkness? If something was controlling the darkness, could they be held back from that?

He's a pirate. Shichibukai.

[key-destination.livejournal.com]

I don't know. If you control the Darkness, you can also control the Heartless. I don't see why they would be trying to get in if someone was controlling them.

Should I know him?

[justicereigns]

What if he didn't know about it? He's fairly new to his devil fruit and even after years there's a lot of things we don't fully know about the potentials.

He's a shichibukai. Legal pirate. There's 7 of them pretending to be World Government dogs. Tsk. Worse than regular pirates the whole lot. You're friends with Portgas D. Ace? Ask him about Blackbeard. He knows better than anyone.

[key-destination.livejournal.com]

Maybe. I'm not sure though. I can use the dark corridors, but I have no control over the Heartless. I'm supposed to control other Nobodies, but I can barely do that. So...maybe he does have control.

Alright, I'll ask Ace then.

[justicereigns]

Then that might very well be why they're being held back. He just doesn't know it yet. And the minute he realizes... he'd release them. Fuck.

Blackbeard's a traitor to everything.

[key-destination.livejournal.com]

...

...The Organization destroys traitors.

[justicereigns]

So does the Whitebeard Crew.

One of the laws of piracy on the Grand Line is that you never kill a Whitebeard Pirate or Whitebeard himself and the whole crew will descend on you for vengeance. Part of that thing about pirate crews being made for protection.

Like I said, that brat would know more about it.

[key-destination.livejournal.com]

The Organization doesn't really work like that.

[justicereigns]

No? Why not?

[key-destination.livejournal.com]

...None of the other members cared when half of the Organization was exterminated at Castle Oblivion.

We're comrades, but it just doesn't really work out like that. "No hearts to care", right?

[justicereigns]

Do you care?

Pirates are generally all bastards but they still have some things they care a lot about.

[key-destination.livejournal.com]

Yeah...I did. I thought Axel was destroyed too since he was sent to the Castle.

[justicereigns]

People can pretend all they want not to care but no one truly loses that humanity. Not from your heart, brain, memories. It still sticks around. Humans need each other, just like I said. And even when they don't think they need each other they want each other for company and joy. Life doesn't mean much when you don't have anyone to share it with.

[key-destination.livejournal.com]

I wish you were right, Smoker.

Maybe you just think we're human because we don't look like Dusks.
