I don't own One Piece

-An uneventful chapter honestly. I'm using the manga an it was mainly lots of talking, and mainly Luffy trying to fight Jimbei... So there will be some little skips here, and I won't be rewriting what is said in the manga/anime if Katsu has no real part of the conversation. It will be summarized if anything. Let's be honest, nobody wants to reread what they have already seen.-

........................................

The wind around us was beginning to pick up as I glared at the fishman. Luffy stood beside me, seeming as angry as I was.

"We have to go to Ryugu Castle to save our friends!" Luffy yelled, "And I'm gonna clobber Hody while I'm at it!"

"And I'm telling you to wait!" Jimbei yelled back, appearing as equally angry.

"Calm down you guys." Nami waved her hands, looking between the three of us in worry.

"You either get out of the way so we can save them, or you're the enemy." I growled, shoving my finger at Jimbei.

Instead Luffy nudged me softly to gain my attention. I glanced at him and caught his look. At the same time, we turned and started running towards the shark.

"Shark! Let us on! Take us to Ryugu Castle!" Luffy commanded, holding out an arm towards the shark.

"Fishman Karate..." Both Luffy and I glanced back at Jimbei. My eyes narrowing as I felt a shift in the air. "Shark Brick Fist!" Jimbei threw out his fist.

The air molecules shifted rapidly before both Luffy and I were thrown back. A weakness spreading though me which was similar to when I'm in the ocean. Though I felt someone catch me, I frowned when they skidded back.

"Oi! Don't hit a lady, or I'll beat some manners into you!" Sanji growled, softly placing me on the ground and making sure I was on my two feet before letting go.

"Thanks, Sanji, but don't interfere with my fights again." I mutter, sending a small smile to the Chef. 

"It worked?!" Nami exclaimed in shock, "Even though he's made of rubber?!"

"The essence of Fishman Karate is the control of water!" Jimbei answered. "The shock wave pulsates through the water in the air and in the body."

I glared at the fishman, flicking open my fan and sending a high wind at him. His eyes widened, sensing the attack, however he wasn't fast enough to dodge this kind of attack. He flew back, only stopping when he dug is feet into the ground.

He sent another punch at me, which landed as much as I tried to dodge. I winced at the weakened feeling that came over me, but thankfully passed. Pushing myself to my knees, I went to push myself up when a hand softly thumped me on the head. In my angered state I glared up at the person, ready to attack. However, it quickly fell once I realized who it was.

Robin frowned at me disapprovingly. "Stop fighting, Katsu. Jimbei is an ally."

Though I frowned at her, it resembled more of a pout as I found it hard to show any kind of angry emotion towards the woman. "Right now he's more of an enemy than ally. I gotta save Mr. Hottie, Mr. Glow-Up, and Brook."

Though she rose an eyebrow at the nicknames, she didn't comment on it. "See his position first, then make a decision on whether to fight or not."

I puffed out my cheeks in response and crossed my arms. By now Robin had caught the others attention.

"What was Robin doing in the Forest?!" Chopper cried out in shock.

She smiled at Chopper before looking to Luffy and Jimbei. "I don't know what's going on here, but aren't you two friends? Don't fight."

I glanced at Robin, small pout still present. Just faintly I remember my mother telling me the same thing as a child towards Makoto. Sighing, I plopped down on the ground and stayed silent, my hands gripping my ankles.

It was my Captain's decision now. If he ends up siding with whatever Jimbei says, I'll have to follow it. Even if it pisses me off.

As I listened to Jimbei's side, I found myself understanding his position even though it pained me to agree with him even the slightest amount. However, even though I found some reason, it won't be enough to stop me if need be. Three crew members are at risk, and to me those guys are worth more than an entire kingdom.

I didn't become a pirate to be some noble hero.

Sanji was the one to calmly input that piece, adding on that if we humans do nothing Hody will win. The last straw for Luffy was Hachi finally admitting that Hody was the one who beat him up.

"Just get out of the way, Jimbei! I said I'm going!" Luffy demanded, glancing as me. I took the look as a sign to stand up. "You still in?"

I nodded without a second thought. "Of course, Captain."

"I won't let you!" Jimbei yelled, standing back up from his seated state. "I will take care of this!"

...........................................................

Robin had stopped me from fighting.

Again.

She had also stopped Luffy and Jimbei.

"Get out of the way!" Luffy demanded, "I'm gonna beat them all up!"

"I said wait! Hear me out!" Jimbei yelled, "What are we?"

I frowned freezing as I squinted my eyes. "Confession?"

Then Luffy answered, still as aggressive as before. "Friends!!"

"Oh," I blinked, "Rejection. That would have been the perfect time to confess." I felt the gaze of both Franky and Robin. However since they stayed silent, I didn't look their way.

"That's right! But for many years Fishmen and Humans were unable to be friends." Jimbei said.

Mamoru had informed me of such things. He also taught me not to trust those that look down on Fishmen. Those people are garbage, and we don't need garbage or garbage people in our lives.

The logic is simple. If they share the same blood as us, they aren't different. People are just idiots.

"If you're going to pummel Hody, don't do it as an angry human." Jimbei offered, "Do it as the hero of the island."

I crinkled my nose at the thought.

"Hero? No way!" Luffy denied loudly and quite angrily, shocking Jimbei.

"What?!"

"We're pirates! I love heroes, but I don't want to be one! Do you even know what a hero is?" Luffy demanded, he was quite passionate about this. "Let's say there's a bunch of meat!" He ranted, "Pirates have feasts and eat meat, but heroes give the meat to other people! I want to eat the meat!"

"What kind of analogy is that?" Nami blinked.

I nodded in agreement with Luffy. "No, no. It's true. That's you with money." She snapped her head to look at me then frowned. "He just thinks with his stomach." I shrugged, I would have used the same thought, just used oranges instead of meat. It all makes sense.

"I'll feet you all the meat if you do as I say!" Jimbei offered, making my eyes widened.

Then I sighed. He already knows Luffy's biggest weakness.

"Deal!"

........................................................

Having 'saved' our crew mates I felt more at ease dispute knowing we were charging head first into another battle. Luffy had already charged out, hearing the Princess bellow his name.

Even though he gets to beat up Hody, he's still slightly irritated about everyone cheering him on. I find it quite amusing.

A pirate turned hero.

The thought itself made me want to laugh.

"You ready, Katsu?" Zoro muttered as Franky blasted at the pirates with a cannon.

I smirked glancing at the swordsman. "Ah, if I'm correct I should be asking that, Mr. Hottie." My smirk grew a little, "You did just get out of a cage."

He rolled his eyes, but I had noticed the slightest blush. "I'm always ready. I just wanted to make sure you were. "

I patted his back as I hopped up on the railing. Strands of my hair escaping the braid as the air whipped around us.

Just as we neared the ground, I took a few steps and began walking on the air. As the crew jumped down, I continued walking down the air as if it were steps.

Touching the ground I stood beside Sanji, who was currently lighting a cigarette. Swiftly I pulled out one of my fans and tapped it against my chin as I looked around.

I won't bring out the blades at first, not until I feel like I really need it. Until then I'll just use it to help my wind or to jab people with it.

Either way, I couldn't stop the smile that grew on my face. There was going to be so many things to draw later today.

............................

End of Chapter 70!

So the ending did get a little... choppy. However, from what I read in the manga, it really didn't go into how they saved the three in the castle. I believe they broke out for the most part.

Also, I did not realize this earlier, but I made Katsu AB- right? That would mean she could basically give her blood to everyone in the crew, with the exception of Sanji, who is O-. That being said, if she were to come out fine in the end of this, then she would be the first Chopper would go to for Luffy's needed blood transfusion. So fair warning, Katsu is gonna have to get fairly hurt in the upcoming fight, as much as it pains me to do that. I did feel the need to explain this at the very least to you all. Don't worry, she will get a chance to kick some ass before said thing happens.

Also, here's a little picture of some of my OC's. I'm sure you'll all recognize Katsu! The bottom one is Yuki, who is an Naruto OC of mine, and the middle... well she's an OC I have yet to actually introduce... I just really liked how these turned out.
