After Few Hours...…...
After a few hours, Ash awoke with a sharp gasp. His vision blurred at first, but as it cleared, he spotted Lucy devouring a massive hunks of meat with an appetite as if she hadn't eaten in days.
Nearby, Dragon sat in a chair, not even exhausted, speaking with Bellemere and Makino, who stood beside him.
Ash turned his head and saw Selina, Ace, Nami, Nojiko, and Uta still unconscious on beds, their faces peaceful. Groaning, he tried to rise, his muscles protesting every movement.
Dragon noticed immediately, striding over. Placing a firm hand on Ash's shoulder, he gently pushed him back down. "Stay put," Dragon said, his tone firm but not unkind. "You've been through a lot."
Dragon pulled up a chair and sat across from Ash, with Bellemere and Makino following. As Ash's senses sharpened, he asked groggily, "Where... are we?"
Dragon gestured around. "Makino's place. We brought you all back here after everything settled down."
Bellemere interjected with a smirk, crossing her arms. "You brat. Even I, who've been with the revolutionaries for only a short while, have only seen a handful of people with Conqueror's Haki. But you and that brat over there"—she pointed at Lucy— "you two pulled off something even some adults can't manage." She grinned knowingly. "The power of the king, huh?"
Ash rubbed his temples, his mind slowly clearing. Dragon let out a hearty laugh. "As I said before, you kids never fail to amaze me."
At that moment, Lucy, mid-bite, noticed Ash was awake. Her eyes lit up, and she leapt from her seat, tackling him with an enthusiastic hug. "Ash! You're finally awake!"
Ash caught her, laughing through the ache in his ribs. "Yeah, I'm up. Looks like we did it, huh? Uta's finally free of that slimy, ugly idiot."
Lucy pulled back slightly; her grin wide. "Shishishi! Yep! We did it!" She puffed up her chest. "And guess what? Dad says I unlocked the… uh… conk… cork—" She stumbled over the word.
"Conqueror's Haki," Ash finished, chuckling.
Lucy nodded vigorously. "Yeah, that! Dad said you can use it too now! Is that true?"
Ash smiled, ruffling her hair. "Seems like it."
Makino placed a plate of food in front of Ash, smiling warmly. "Eat up. Dragon-san said you'd be exhausted after everything," she said, then added with a note of wonder, "I have to say, you and Lucy have something really rare from what dragon-san has told me. Conqueror's Haki... he said it's something only one in a million can manifest."
Lucy, still clinging to Ash, burst out laughing. "Shishishi! Isn't it cool?"
Ash chuckled, shaking his head. "Honestly, Makino-san, I never thought I'd have it either."
As Makino turned to arrange more food, Lucy's eyes darted toward Ash's plate. With a mischievous grin, she stealthily reached for his food.
Makino's sharp gaze caught her. With a playful yet firm hand, she gave Lucy a quick bonk on the head. "You've already had your fill, Lucy! Let Ash eat now."
Lucy pouted, rubbing her head. "But, Makino—"
Ash laughed, his voice light despite his fatigue. "It's okay, Makino-san. Lucy can have some if she wants."
Lucy perked up immediately, eyes wide. "Really?!"
Ash grinned. "Yeah, really. Just leave some for me, okay?"
"Thanks, Ash!" Lucy said gleefully, grabbing a piece from his plate and digging in.
Makino watched with a mix of amusement and exasperation. She shook her head with a smile. "You're too soft on her, Ash."
Ash shrugged as he ate, savoring the meal that was helping to restore his energy.
As the quiet moments stretched on, Selina, Ace, Nami, and Nojiko began to stir, waking one by one. Makino and Bellemere immediately went to check on them, offering water and ensuring they were all right.
"Here," Makino said, handing them plates of food. "Eat something. You'll need to regain your strength."
The four of them gratefully accepted the food, quietly eating as they tried to recover.
Ash glanced over at Uta, who was still sound asleep. His brow furrowed slightly. "When the Tot Musica curse was pulled from her, the pain she endured must have drained her completely." Yet, seeing her now—peaceful and at ease—he felt relief wash over him. "I'm glad, it's finally gone. She's free."
Meanwhile, Lucy quickly bounced over to the other girls after noticing them awake and enjoying their food. With her usual mischievous grin, she tried to sneak a bite from their plates, only to be met with shouts from Ace and Nami.
"Lucy! Stop stealing our food!" Ace yelled, mock indignation in her voice.
Nami joined in, brandishing her fork. "Go eat your own, you glutton!"
What followed was a chaotic scene as the two chased Lucy, leading to playful bickering and exaggerated movements trying to escape from them. Ace managed to grab Lucy in a mock headlock, while Nami wagged a finger, laughing. "You'll never learn, will you?"
After a moment, Selina and Nojiko tried to intervene, shaking their heads at the antics. When the girls finally calmed down and started eating again, they turned to Bellemere with curious expressions.
"What happened after we passed out?" Selina asked.
Bellemere, began explaining the events in vivid detail. As she recounted what happened during purification of Tot Musica, everyone listened intently, eyes narrowing as they absorbed every word.
When Bellemere finished, Ace crossed her arms and pointed accusingly at Ash and Lucy. "How the hell did you two unlock Conqueror's Haki before the rest of us?! That's so unfair!" She pouted dramatically.
Lucy placed her hands on her hips, puffing out her chest. "Shishishi! That's because we're stronger than you, Ace! You're just weak!"
A tick mark formed on Ace's forehead as she growled, "Weak, huh? We'll see about that!" She lunged at Lucy, tackling her playfully as the two rolled around in an exaggerated wrestling match, complete with comedic insults and over-the-top movements.
"Get back here, you idiot!" Ace shouts as she tries to catch Lucy.
"Only if you can catch me, weakling!" Lucy yells, sticking out her tongue.
Bellemere sighed, stepping in with an air of authority. Grabbing both by the back of their shirts, she lifted them effortlessly, holding them apart like misbehaving kittens. "Knock it off, you two!" she scolded, her voice stern but with a hint of fondness.
Lucy and Ace both hung from her grasp, pouting with crossed arms as they rotated slowly, muttering, "Fine."
Bellemere shook her head. "Let everyone eat in peace, and don't forget Uta is still resting. She needs it."
The two troublemakers exchanged a glance before sticking their tongues out at each other in mock defiance, earning a collective laugh from the group.
Once everyone finished eating, Dragon stood up, adjusting his coat. "Alright then, I need to head back now. There are things I need to take care of back at the base. I left Ivankov and Kuma in charge, but I can't stay away too long."
He then glanced at the group. "You kids get your rest if you're planning to set out tomorrow. And remember, call me if there's anything you need. Got it?"
The group nodded in understanding. Dragon continued, turning to Ash and Lucy. "You two may have unlocked Conqueror's Haki, but using it willingly and controlling it properly is a whole other matter. It's still wild and untamed, and using it recklessly could affect not just your enemies but your allies too."
Dragon his tone growing serious. "And there might be chance someone from marines who knows about Haki might notice and if it slips out that there are not one but two users with Conqueror's Haki, especially here in the East Blue, the weakest sea."
Dragon continues, "That kind of power….. will stand out like a beacon, then trouble will find you. For now, try to avoid from using it as much as possible while you're out there unless absolutely necessary. Don't worry, I'll help you both with the training when you come to the base. Alright?"
Ash and Lucy nodded in understanding.
Bellemere stood up as well, dusting off her pants. "You kids take care of yourselves. I hope I'll get to hear about your adventures soon." she said warmly.
Bellemere then noticed Nojiko pouting and sighed. "Nojiko, I know what you're thinking. Don't worry, it's not like you'll never get your chance. Right now, you have to be at the village. You can't be out too long without raising suspicion."
"I know, Mom," Nojiko replied, sighing. "But that doesn't mean I have to like it. I want to go on adventures with my friends too."
Bellemere smiled, ruffling Nojiko's hair affectionately. "Good. I know it's tough, but trust me, your time will come."
"Now, Nami—" she turned her attention to her other daughter, "I know you joining them was a last-minute decision, but stick to the plan. Once you go with them to any island, don't be seen with these five. Got it?"
Nami nodded. "I know, Mom. If Arlong somehow finds out I'm travelling with bounty hunters or pirate hunters, he'll get suspicious. That's why we already planned to split up before entering islands. Besides," she added with a small grin, "I have the ring. I can always use it to change the way I look."
Bellemere nodded approvingly. "Good. I know you've been making a name for yourself as the Cat Burglar, huh?" she said with a teasing tone.
Then, her expression softened. "I… and we all know what you're doing might also be dangerous, and I appreciate that you're only stealing from bad pirates, criminals, and bad people who deserve it."
She sighed; her gaze distant. "If it were possible, I would have never allowed you to go down this path, but…" She trailed off, leaving the words unspoken, as if Nami could understand the weight of what she wasn't saying.
Nami sheepishly smiled, rubbing the back of her neck. "Well, yeah…. You know I used to hate pirates, but after meeting Ash, Lucy and the girls hearing about pirates like Shanks, and other good pirates, I've realized not all of them are bad and there are good ones out there."
Bellemere chuckled warmly. "I'm not criticizing what you're doing. But I'll keep saying it again—be careful, okay?" Nami nods hearing this and hugs her with Nojiko.
After a heartfelt pause, Bellemere hugged Makino tightly. "I'll see you again soon," she said with a wave, and then, along with Dragon, she stepped into the suitcase portal, returning back to the Revolutionary base.
After they left, Makino let out a small sigh and turned to Ash. "I'm going to get some rest. Today has been exhausting."
Ash nodded. "Sure, Makino-san. We can take care of ourselves now."
Makino gave a small smile and nodded before heading to her room.
Ash then turned his attention to the girls, who had finished eating, while Uta was still sound asleep. "How are you guys feeling now?"
Nojiko stretched slightly and answered, "We're fine—just a little disgruntled, but overall, okay."
Ash then noticed Ace was still pouting. With a small smirk, he teased, "What? Still pouting over what happened?"
Ace's face turned red as she huffed. "Hmph!"
Ash chuckled. "Don't worry. Did you forget? I have a way to get you Conqueror's Haki."
Ace's eyes widened in realization. "Oh yeah! Give it to me!" she demanded eagerly.
Ash shook his head, laughing. "No, not now. Lucy and I just got lucky, that's all. I'll give it to everyone when we go back to Dragon-san for training."
Ace pouted again, grumbling under her breath.
Ash smirked. "You look cute when you pout, but that doesn't mean I'm going to give it to you now."
Ace's face turned even redder as she stammered, "S-Shut up, idiot!"
Selina laughed. "Ash, stop teasing her already."
"Fine, fine," Ash relented, still grinning. "Anyways, you know, I already gave you guys some pills to increase our soul power, right?"
The girls nodded.
Ash continued, "We've already taken 3 each over these past two years. Tomorrow, I'll give you another one. Once we've all taken remaining 2 each, I'll give you the Conqueror's Seed. As I already told you guys, these pills might help strengthen our Haki, and it'll be easier to learn the other types as well if our souls are strong, that's my theory."
He then stretched. "For now, you guys should get some rest. We're leaving tomorrow, right? Since Uta's curse is finally gone, there's nothing left to do here but start our plan. I already docked the boat which I built with the village carpenter. We just need to fill up on some necessary rations tomorrow, and then we are ready to set sail."
Selina nodded. "Yeah... I'm really glad Uta is finally free from that curse." Her voice held a hint of disdain, as if she despised even thinking about it. "And it's a good thing we got rid of it before we left. We've been preparing for this for a long time."
Lucy and Ace both grinned. "We're ready!"
After that, they talked for a while before heading to their beds to rest for the night.
The Next Morning
As the morning light filtered through the room, Uta slowly opened her eyes. To her surprise, she found Ash and the girls gathered around her bed, watching over her.
Seeing her awake, the girls immediately started asking questions.
"How do you feel, Uta?" Selina asked with concern.
"Are you okay?" Ace added.
Uta blinked before offering a small smile. "Yeah… I-I…..I feel like a huge weight has been lifted off me. My body feels lighter, and I have so much energy!"
Hearing this, everyone sighed in relief.
After that, Uta was brought up to speed by Ash and the others about everything that had happened after she lost consciousness.
When she heard it all, tears welled up in her eyes—tears of relief and happiness. Not only was she finally free from Tot Musica's curse, but she was also amazed to learn that Ash and Lucy had awakened Conqueror's Haki.
As their conversation drifted, they moved on to breakfast. Since Uta hadn't eaten anything the night before, she ate even more than the others, making up for lost energy.
Once breakfast was over, Ash handed out another Ethereal Vitality Pill to each of them—it was their fourth one.
Then, Ash turned to Uta and Lucy. "Alright, you two. From now on, you're going to be wearing Sea-stone Shackles."
Lucy immediately froze. "What?! Ash, why? We already use those when we train!" she whined, crocodile tears welling up in her eyes as she clung to him dramatically.
Ash smirked. "Because from now on, you'll be fighting without relying on your Devil Fruit abilities until we do the bounty hunting. When we start our actual journey, we can't risk anyone linking us to our current bounty hunter identities."
He then added, "Once we start our journey into the Grand Line, I'll give you something that removes the weakness of Devil Fruits. But until then, you'll have to endure." Ash gives an out after seeing Lucy pouting expression with a smile.
Ash said with a grin, noticing Lucy pouting at him. He couldn't help but chuckle at her expression, trying to ease her frustration.
Lucy gasped in horror after fully getting what Ash said. "Noooo! Ash, you're a meanie! You already have those kinds of things and you're not giving them to me even now?!"
She pouted, her eyes big and pleading, before climbing onto him, shaking his shoulders.
Ash sighed and pulled her off. "No…. Not until you can at least walk properly while wearing the shackles." He crossed his arms. "And if when I or anyone else gets a Devil Fruit in the future, we'll also wear them too. By then, you might even develop complete immunity."
Lucy huffed but reluctantly gave in. "Fine… I will wear those stupid shackles give it to me."
Chuckling, Ash handed one each to Lucy and Uta.
Final Preparations
With that settled, they focused on preparing for their departure. With Makino's help—and Ash's inventory—they stocked up on rations for the journey, including some pre-cooked meals.
However, when Lucy noticed that not all the food was kept inside the boat then immediately, she threw a fit, causing a small commotion.
"You guys are hiding food from me!" she wailed dramatically. Selina and Ace, unimpressed, both bonked her on the head.
"Yah, if we keep the food outside where you can see it easily, you'll eat it all and leave nothing for us! And we would starve on our way with no food!" Ace scolded.
Lucy pouted and sat in a corner, drawing sad circles on the ground.
Setting Sail
Finally, with everything ready, the group boarded their boat.
Nami adjusted the sail as they prepared to leave.
On the docks, Nojiko and Makino stood watching, there to see them off.
The girls waved. "We'll see you again!"
Nojiko and Makino smiled, waving back.
Ash grinned and shouted, "Take care of yourselves! We'll come back with amazing stories from our adventure!"
Then, he turned back to the others, stepping toward the boat's steering wheel.
"So, girls… Are you ready?"
A chorus of excited voices answered him.
"YEAH!"
