Chapter 10: Shandian’s Ambush and Cabin

_________ POV Narration_________

As Enel and Aisa were having a nice conversation and drinking some fruit juice, the Straw hats made their way towards the 'City of Gold'.

Why? Well, that's simple. The name made Nami's eyes sparkle with berry signs and the rest were forced to steer their ships towards the Upper Yard.

Not that they had anything against it. Sanji was an actual Simp, Zoro didn't care, Luffy found it interesting, Robin wanted to see if she could find some Poneglyphs in the ancient city, and Chopper and Ussop were just kinda going along with it.

The crew followed along the river in their going merry for a few minutes, the waters around them were somehow shark-infested, which managed to scare the shit out of both Chopper and Ussop at the same time.

Nami was far too infatuated with the prospect of a city of gold to care about sharks. And Luffy just wanted to eat them for some reason...

Luffy stood on his usual spot on the sheep head, he had made that spot his 'throne'. He looked around the island as he was passing by with a large smile.

Eventually, their ship was surrounded by tribesmen riding air scooters. All of them were startled and quickly got prepared to fight the Shandian warriors.

"Why are you trespassing on Shandian territory?!"

The lead figure was a tall, black-haired woman, with two large bangs parted to either side of her face on the front, and a long and elaborate ponytail on the back. She has dark green eyes, and her lips are covered with pink lipstick.

It was none other than Raki, a Shandian warrior that had also fought hard to regain her homeland. She had made a small expedition to look for her niece, but then she managed to run into a pirate ship, which led to the current situation.

"Visitors aren't welcome here! We've just regained our land, we won't allow intruders to just waltz right in." Raki said as she stood at the forefront of the group she had been leading.

Luffy and the rest seemed a bit confused, it eventually led to Luffy just looking up and shouting.

"Oy! How are you all flying?! That's so cool!" Which led to the rest of his crew just face palming.

Nami did end up punching him, and a more sensible person walked up to talk to the tribal warriors.

A relatively tall and tanned woman with long black hair going down to her waist, she wore a purple leather jacket leaving a bit of cleavage exposed and a pair of purple jeans that wrapped around her figure nicely, alongside a pair of high heels.

Nico Robin took up the stand as she realized that the people in front of her were most likely the tribal warrior that she had heard rumours about on the island.

He managed to get the attention of everyone on board, especially the Shandian warriors.

'There shouldn't be anything this far out...' Rika thought to herself as she looked in the direction that the long-nosed traveller had pointed out.

"Whoah! That's a pretty large cabin!" Luffy said as he immediately jumped onto the goat head of the Going Merry.

"Zoro, Sanji! Pull up the sails!" Luffy quickly told his crewmates to start slowing the ship down.

"These are still shark-infested waters... I don't know if staying stationary is such a great idea..." Nami said, the fear of sharks finally reaching her as well.

The Shandian warriors simply gave each other confused looks, as none of them could recognize the large cabin in the middle of nowhere.

It didn't even look abandoned, smoke was rising from a makeshift chimney there was freshly cut firewood right outside the cabin. It was clearly being lived in.

Robin looked down at the river waters, she noticed then that the closer they got to the cabin the fewer shark fins poking out of the water there were. Almost as if they were afraid of something.

Eventually, the Going Merry came to a complete halt right in front of the large cabin. Most of the people onboard all got out and looked around.

The only people that remained on board were Robin, Nami, Chopper and Usopp.

"Tread carefully... We don't exactly know who we're going to run into here..." Rika warned all of the people following her.

"By the way, Straw hat." Luffy looked at her with a smile and said "What?"

"Where has the green-haired swordsman gone?" She asked in a confused tone.

"..."
