Before the meeting of Lucy and Coby, the ship was still amidst the sea, "We are getting closer, Luffy!" Nami spoke, looking into the distance, with the island becoming a larger point on the horizon.
"That's good, it's time for us to go get our prisoners." Luffy commented, entering the ship and heading to the ship's prison along with Zoro and Hugo.
Doflamingo, Page-on, and all the captured CP9 agents looked towards the door opening with Luffy entering along with two others. Luffy looked at everyone, Doflamingo and Page-on were being fed now, so their condition wasn't as extreme as the last time Luffy visited them, the CP9 members, despite being a bit downtrodden besides Rob Lucci, were fine, having been captured just a few days ago.
"Hello everyone!" Luffy announced with a small smile, but there was no response back.
"They don't seem to like you, captain." Zoro commented, noticing the silence. Nobody had responded to Luffy's greeting, after all, everyone was angry at that man.
"It's alright, but soon they'll be happy, since we are going to release them in exchange for enriching us." Luffy commented with a smile as the prisoners looked a bit surprised.
"Are we going to be released?" Bueno asked in his cell calmly.
"That's right, we are arriving at the meeting point, so it's better to take you guys out there." Hugo commented.
Without adding anything more, Luffy began opening their cells and taking out his prisoners, with the help of his other companions, they brought everyone to the deck while keeping them in seastone handcuffs.
As soon as they left the interior of the ship, the prisoners finally saw that they were in front of the judicial island, with Black Pearl even closer, they were a bit surprised by this, but the scenery looked chaotic, warships everywhere as if a great battle was going to erupt there.
"What is this..." Kalifa murmured quietly.
"Fufufu. It seems the government has prepared very well for this negotiation." Doflamingo commented with a characteristic smile.
"That's true, I hope they at least bring the agreed money." Luffy commented while crossing his arms also satisfied with what he was seeing, he expected no less.
Black Pearls continued sailing towards the island non-stop, while the local alarm was sounded at that moment.
"So loud." Uta commented looking over the edge of the ship.
"Is all this for us? How interesting." Alvida said, placing her club on her shoulder.
From the ship, everyone could see movements on the island, with thousands of soldiers getting ready.
"Look at that island! It flies in the middle of a hole!" Vivi commented, pointing at the island and Uta with Shirahoshi joining her.
"Do you think we'll find Lucy there?" Nojiko approached Luffy.
"Lucy?! I would love to see her again!" Uta heard the mention and spoke excitedly.
"Lucy-Sama!" Shirahoshi also expressed her desire to find her.
"Yes." Luffy simply said with a smile. "I feel we can find her there." He concluded.
The ship continued approaching until the port was right in front of it before falling into the hole, with various navy soldiers looking at them cautiously all around, the ship finally arrived at the port, anchoring there.
"It's really quite a sight..." Kuina commented.
Luffy left the strange structure of the island behind and looked towards the port, "Hm?!" He looked down and saw who was the person there to receive him, quite surprised. He didn't speak to her immediately, but looked at his crew.
"The ones who will take part in this negotiation will be Yamato, Zoro, Kuina, Hugo, Nami, Nojiko, Lami, Reiju, Alvida, and Vivi." He said to each of these members before continuing, "While Uta, Shirahoshi, Hachi, Chouchou, Robin, Chopper, and the rest of the animals will stay to protect the ship." Luffy wanted to keep the ship safe and having some members with affinity with water would be the best choice.
Everyone nodded while the members who were going started to take the prisoners, as Luffy left first, jumping from the ship to talk a bit with the person waiting for him down below.
"You really are unique, Monkey D. Luffy. Let's see if you will continue to be so in front of the pride of justice." She commented.
"It's not like I haven't faced an admiral before." Luffy shrugged.
"Hey, gloomy. If we get into a fight here, let's see who defeats more marines?" Reiju teased Lami.
"Tsk, of course, but don't cry after you lose to me." Lami said arrogantly. As always, they always competed with everything, even in bed with Luffy, since her husband had to endure their competitions.
Then they continued until they finally arrived at the site, Luffy could feel the burning gaze of Akainu staring at him with murderous intent.
Tsuru approached the group of marines and continued walking while Luffy and the others stopped, after all, the negotiations were about to start at this moment, he was just 12, while thousands of marine soldiers surrounded them like an anthill, outside the island, dozens of ships still continued to keep their cannons aimed at the island, ready to fire at any moment.
Luffy was not intimidated, he just kept his bandit smile and looked at Akainu and his murderous gaze. "This is going to be interesting."
