3rd Pov.

"Sensei..." turning around, a white haired women glanced back to see a young boy with raven locks, flowing about in the wind. A soft chuckle escaped her, and she beckoned for him to come closer.

"What have I told you about your hair Itachi-chan?" the women who was referred to as Sensei called out. The young child froze, and lowered their gaze in shame. Another short laugh was heard before Itachi felt a hand ruffling his head. "Don't look all depressed, I'm not upset with you." and the small smile proved that notion.

"You said if I wanted to grow it out, I should at least tie it in the back so it doesn't get in the way when fighting." Itachi finally answered the question his mentor had asked him. He knew his sensei very well, and knew that what she was saying made sense, however, he didn't like the idea of putting his hair up in a ponytail, or bun since he didn't like how it made him look. Also, the hairstyles tended to give him a headache that distracted him in combat training.

The supposed Sensei looked down at the boy who was lost in thought, and could guess what was going on through his head. She had witnessed the silent temper tantrum he had thrown the last time she had made him tie his hair. An idea came to her, and she pulled out the hair tie that held her hair together at the bottom, and slowly started to brush Itachi's hair back.

"Sensei?"

"Yes Itachi-chan?" Itachi didn't respond, and only watch as his Sensei put his hair in a similar style as her own. Once she was satisfied with the look, Itachi's Sensei pulled away and crossed her arms. "Now, fight me like your life depends on it." She declared the training to a start.

"But you said that having your hair out will get in the way of fighting. Sensei, you're being a hypocrite."  The way the smaller boy smirked caused his Sensei to raise her brows. A smirk slowly graced her own features, and she brushed her hand through her hair.

"Unlike you, I have more than enough experiences to fight without allowing my hair to get in my way. Once you can land a hard enough hit on me, I'll stop nagging you about your hair." The white haired teenager bragged, quickly erasing the smirk on Itachi's face. However, before they could start, a voice interrupted them.

"Shinsa-!"

A women, now at the age of 19, slowly blinked their eyes open. They arose from 'their' bed, and raised a hand to nurse the growing migraine.

'It hasn't even been 2 hours...' she clicked her teeth, looking at the clock hanging in the infirmary.

While the crew was partying, she had decided to take a nap to ease up on the body aches that she constantly felt. Her sleep schedule, almost nonexistent only added to the strain on her body.

Shinsa had gotten out of the bed she laid in, and put on a pair of joggers she had hanging on the post of the bed.  The kunoichi, deciding to wear appropriate clothes at a later time, merely brought out a cardigan to wear with a sleeveless, spandex turtleneck.

Slowing her movements, Shinsa tenderly smoothened out the turtleneck, and brought it to her face to take a whiff, smelling a rather familiar scent.

An image popped up in her mind, and a small smile made its way onto her face. A smile only filled with sadness, and loneliness.

'I never got to give it back. It even still smells like him...' the hands holding the fabric began trembling. The Uchiha brought the piece of clothing close to her face, completely drowning herself in the smell of it. Her senses consumed in the citrus lemon grass scent, that had a hint of a bamboo-muskiness to it. The signature smell of the one and only Kakashi Hatake.

After being around him since the tender age of 11, Shinsa was starting to fall victim to the side-effects of being too attached to him. Tremors racked throughout her entire body and she breathed heavily.

The white haired Uchiha slowly rose her head from the piece of clothing. Two red orbs glowed throughout the dark room of the infirmary. Anger and hatred showed throughout them very clearly. Veins bulged from her forehead, a drastic contrast to her awfully pale skin.

For a second, dark purple chakra, a mix of her regular blue chakra and the Kyuubi's red one, oozed out of her.

And quick as it appeared, the chakra and anger was gone.

All that remained was a blank faced Uchiha, undergoing an internal war. 

______________________

"Is it just me, or is this sea like a hillside?" The voice of a straw hat wearing Captain questioned, while the boat rocked forwards violently. "The ship's moving crazy fast!" he exclaimed with a grin. Shinsa walked soundlessly out of the infirmary that has somewhat become her bedroom, and begun to listen to the chatter going on throughout the ship.

"It's a Sea-Hill. You see them all the time." Law nonchalantly explained.

"No you don't!" Usopp screamed, clearly scared. Turning away from them, Shinsa closed her eyes, allowing herself to bask in the sunlight. The soft, cool breeze lightly blowing against her long white locks. Her hair was messy from the nap she had just taken, but she didn't really care at the moment.

"Nami! Where are we heading again?!" The voice of the one and only Monkey D. Luffy shouted.  The way he constantly yelled, and was always so positive, was so similar to a certain green-body suit wearing individual that a chill went down the white haired Uchiha's spine.

"A place called Dressrosa. Traffy told us to ignore the middle needle and to take detours rather than follow a straight path." Nami explained. Was Law that worried that Doflamingo would catch up to them so quickly? That was the only explanation Shinsa could come up with, based on his cautiousness. She took on look at him, and knew that while he was anticipating the blonde Warlords death, he was scared.

"D-Dressrosa?!" Kin'emon suddenly shouted as if he was hit with a bolt of lightning.

"You know about it?" Luffy asked.

"Th-That is where we-where I wish to go! Do you have business there as well?!" Kin'emon asked.

"Yeah I think so!" Luffy answered, and turned his attention to Law. "Who were you just talking to Traffy?" Luffy asked.

"Doflamingo." Law casually stated.

"Doflamingo?! From the Seven Warlords?! Isn't he like, the most dangerous guy to mess with?!" Usopp suddenly shouted, butting into the conversation.

"The plan's already in motion." Law said. Hearing this, the only Uchiha on board the ship who was now sitting down sideways on the railing of the ship, turned to look at the group.

"What plan?" Zoro asked.

"Oh yeah, we better explain the plan! Gather 'round everybody!!" Luffy screamed, and everyone but the Uchiha walked up towards him, forming a small circle. Luffy glanced around for Shinsa, but seeing that her eyes were on him, he looked away and continued his explanation. "We've formed an alliance with the Heart Pirates to take down one of the Four Emperors. Kaido of the beast."

"WE'RE FORMING AN ALLIANCE TO TAKE DOWN ONE OF THE FOUR EMPERORS?!" Most of the crew screamed from shock.

"An emperor? I like it." Zoro said with a smile, and no one was surprised.

"You shouldn't!!" Usopp screamed at him. "Hang on! Everyone just settle down. Can you explain this alliance to those of us who don't know about it?" Usopp was clearly panicking at the lax response from some of the crew mates. Robin was smiling. Zoro was smiling. Luffy was smiling. Sanji was smiling. And Shinsa, as usual, had on a blank unreadable expression. Just like a doll.

"Sure! Traffy's pirate crew and us... are in an alliance now! So let's all get along! Hee Hee!!" Luffy laughed while patting Law's back. Luffy's carefree response did nothing to ease the growing fear of some of his fellow crew mates.

"Any objections?!" Usopp interjected. Him, Nami, Chopper and Brook all raised their hands objecting. Once again, no one was surprised, seeing how those four were known as the 'scaredy-cats' of the crew.

"Will our objections make any difference??" Brook asked.

"Luffy already made the decision, didn't he?" Sanji asked. "A word to wise-Luffy's definition of alliance is probably a bit different from yours. Watch out." Sanji said, getting into Law's face. Turning around, he pointed a finger at Caesar. "I guess that explains why Luffy was going on about abduction. It didn't seem like his style... I was afraid you wanted me too cook up this weird lookin' sheep... but even for a world class chief, there's only so much I can do..." Sanji trailed off.

"Shi ro ro ro... You fools will never ged away with this madnezz... Some of the most powerful men in the world will be after you! Soon you'll rue your own ignorance before you die!" Caesar who was oddly quiet, suddenly exclaimed. His word's were slurred from the beating he had received from the Straw Hat wearing Captain. Obviously irritated, Sanji aimed a hard kick at the man-goat, causing him to shut up. Before the cook, Caesar was like a submissive animal at the moment that a certain Uchiha almost found amusing. Key word: Almost.

"Sanji! I was tending to him! At least wait until I finish before you beat him up!" Chopper exclaimed.

"So it's fine to beat him up once you're done?" Sanji asked while sweat dropping.

"I asked you to kidnap Caesar in Punk Hazard while I took care of the equipment that made the chemical known as S.A.D. In the New World, most of the greatest pirates hold territory guarded by countless subordinates over which they rule like enormous criminal syndicate. Matters happen in larger scale than anything you've seen now! Tackling them with a single crew is pointless. You'll never even catch a glimpse of their captains! Having said that, this is still the underground. All their necessary deals are conducted in secret so as to avoid Naval Attention. And the most trusted and powerful of these men is Doflamingo. His underground alias is Joker. And Joker's largest client at the moment is Kaido, King of the Beasts... an Emperor." Law explained. Kin'emon and Momonosuke gave a shout of surprise to this revelation.

"What's up?" Zoro asked.

"Er....! It is nothing! Please do continue!" Kin'emon shouted. "Dwah! What is this dragon doing here?! Where has Momonosuke gone?!" He suddenly screamed looking at the pink Dragon next to him.

"That's him." Luffy said.

"Huh?! Oh yes, of course. Yes... yes, I see now." Kin'emon said, not keeping the look of horror off of his face.

"What we're trying to do is take down Kaido! That means the key to victory will be how much we can minimize his strength! What Kaido's buying from Joker in great quantities is fruit. Man-Made Zoan-type devil fruit called Smile." Law explained.

"Man-Made?! If you could just create devil fruits, people with powers would be popping all over the place!" Usopp shouted.

"Exactly." Law stated. "Apparently there are inherent risks in the Man-Made fruit... but as of right this moment, Kaido has at least five hundred people in his crew with devil fruit powers." Law said.

"Anyone want to quit!" Usopp screamed.

"Me! Chopper held his hand up.

"Me!" Nami copies.

"Oh shut up." Zoro snapped.

"But now that fruit's been taken out of the equation." Law said while gesturing to Caesar. Sanji, Brook, Chopper and Usopp went over to Caesar, now suddenly finding an interest in the man-goat as Shinsa likes to refer him as.

"Interesting. So he was making them?" Sanji questioned. Caesar laughed quietly to himself, clearly feeling proud.

"You were making the foundation for devil fruits?! Wow, that S.A.D. must be incredible stuff." Chopper complimented.

"Don't compliment him! He's the root of evil!" Usopp shouted.

"It's just an application of Bloodline Elements, which were first discovered by Vegapunk." Law stated. Instantly everyone lost interest in Caesar.

"Oh, so Vegapunk's the genius..." Chopper muttered.

"Shut up! I'd like to see you create that stuff! Nincompoops!!" Caesar screamed, resulting in another beating from Sanji.

"Hmm.." Shinsa hummed out whilst walking up to mad scientist moaning in pain. Her brows lifted in a way where it looked as if she were pitying him.

"What-?! Don't tell me you feel bad for this psychopath!" Usopp reached forward to grab the white haired women, but froze when her eyes moved to give him a sideways glance. He was quickly reminded of the earlier confrontation from the women, and pulled his hand away as fast as he could.

Shinsa closed her eyes, and crossed her arms. She moved her shoulders to readjust the cardigan that looked almost ready to fall off.

"If I'm being honest, yes I do pity him..." she trailed off, receiving baffling looks from the crew. Usopp opened his mouth to yell his clear displeasure to the idea of his supposed crew-mate pitying the same man who was torturing and experimenting on even children! However, before he could be vocal about it, he halted in his movements seeing Shinsa raise her hand in Caesar's direction. There was a small 'poof' of smoke, and the Uchiha's sword appeared in her palm, the tip grazing Caesar's neck.

The scientist let out a squeal of fear, but found that he was unable to move from the look he was receiving from said Uchiha.

"Wouldn't it be easier to just kill him now?" The way the 19 year old female had said this, the way she made killing someone in cold blood sound as if it wasn't a big deal, quickly made the tension on the ship so thick that even the sharpest knife wouldn't be able to cut it.

Zoro unconsciously reached for his own blade, along with Kin'emon, Brook, and Law. The rest of the Straw Hat's begun to realize that the women they had allowed on board the Thousand Sunny may be more trouble then she's worth.

Shinsa clicked her teeth, and turned around, re-sealing the blade during the process. Her face betrayed the bloodlust she had intentionally leaked earlier. A smirk that seemed to send even more chills down the pirate's spine, slowly graced her features.

"I'm just kidding. It was a joke." Usopp now released a terrified squeal, jumping back away from Shinsa who stopped smirking to give him a blank look.

There was a thud behind the Uchiha, and everyone looked to see that Caesar had passed out from the pure terror of being exposed to the Kunoichi's bloodlust. Shinsa ran a hand through her hair, brushing it back, and walked away from the crew, heading below deck where the aquarium was.

The Uchiha sat on the cushioned bench, confused as to why she received the reactions she had. She knew full well that she wasn't a very comedic person, however even Kakashi would break out into a smile at the joke she told. Was the comedy just that different in this world?

'I guess I'll have to research relationships in this world if I even hope to try acting civil with the Straw-hat crew.'
