The Truth Unveiled: The Chaos of Enies Lobby
...
Because of writing this novel, I ended up watching One Piece again... haha, damn.
...
After saying goodbye to Luffy and the others, Garp took Helmpo and Koby and quickly left on their ship.
"Don't you guys need to go with them?" Gin asked quickly, looking at Kara, Zoro, and Chopper, who were sitting and eating peacefully by the poolside.
"No, why? I'm a vice admiral. I don't have to listen to that old idiot," Kara said casually, putting a piece of meat in her mouth with complete calm.
"Kara ran away from her grandfather when the ship left and brought us along," Chopper quickly explained.
Zoro simply nodded.
"Hey, idiots, remember we're on a fake mission to find a lost idiot. We need to make the most of our free time before going back to work," Kara said with a determined tone.
"Hey, you weird, perverted, disgusting cook! I want more meat!" she ordered, her expression serious.
"Of course!" Sanji said excitedly, already used to Kara's nicknames. As long as he could see her in a bikini, he was happy.
When Kara saw Sanji's perverted look, she got annoyed for a moment and quickly used her deadly attack: an elbow to Mrs. Kokoro, who was wearing a bikini, smashing Sanji's face. His horrified expression was epic.
"This is delicious!" Luffy said, stuffing his mouth with meat.
"True, it's a great barbecue," Sogeking said, sitting next to Luffy.
"Sogeking?" Gin said, surprised to see Usopp in disguise just to eat. "What are you doing here?" he quickly asked.
"I came to eat, obviously," Usopp replied with his typical "this is the most logical thing in the world" smile.
"Hey, Straw Hat, here we are!" said the members of the Franky Family, entering the pool area cheerfully. "How's everyone feeling?" They had come to check if everyone was okay.
"Hey, Franky Family! Come eat, guys!" Luffy said happily, inviting everyone.
"Great barbecue!" everyone said as they joined the feast.
"Wait, there are more of you than I thought! Someone go buy more meat!" Luffy said excitedly.
After that, the giants who had rescued Enies Lobby and the workers from Galley-La also joined.
"You guys sure are loud!" Pauly said, looking in the direction where Nami and Kara were sitting, in bikinis, eating calmly. "Aaah, how indecent! Cover yourselves!" he said quickly, with an indignant expression.
"We're by a pool," Nami said quickly, in a tone of "don't be silly."
"Virgin!" Kara said with a mocking smile, looking at Pauly as if it wasn't a big deal.
Franky and Iceburg also joined later, while Sogeking set up a very high stage to sing about his supposed adventures, although no one paid much attention.
While the others were celebrating, Kara sat quietly. Then, she directed her gaze to one of the walls, where she saw Robin approaching with a cautious expression. It seemed she was talking to someone behind the wall. When she finished, she relaxed and gave Kara a warm look.
Kara felt Aokiji leaving quickly after saying something to her. Robin approached her while handing her a cup of juice.
"What did I tell you, ice head?" Kara asked with interest.
"Just about one of her subordinates, who for the first time acted like one when receiving a secret mission. And she seems to be quite popular with women," Robin said with a smile.
"Ahem... well, that subordinate might be quite beautiful, so it would make sense to be popular," Kara said with a mischievous smile.
"Seems like it," Robin said, sitting next to her to eat peacefully while watching their friends continue to have fun at the party.
"You risked everything to help them save me. Not the first time," Robin said, breaking the silence.
"I don't know what you're talking about. The first time I helped you was when we were kids. And the one who helped your friends was a beautiful girl named Eloise," Kara said, standing up casually. "It's time to go," she said, walking towards Zoro and Chopper to take them.
"Thank you for showing me the best place to belong," Robin said quickly to Kara, who had told her in Arabasta to join Luffy and the others, and it was the best thing she could have done.
Kara simply waved without looking back, then took Zoro and Chopper and left.
Meanwhile, the party continued filling up with people, to the point where it seemed like the entire island was at Galley-La.
"Why do we have to go back? Can't we enjoy the party a little longer?" Chopper asked, somewhat down.
"I received an urgent call. It seems that two of the Four Emperors met. They want us back quickly. Maybe we'll find the old man's ship on the way," Kara said seriously.
"What does that mean?" Zoro asked.
"For now, nothing. But as part of the rescue and aid team, we have to stay alert," Kara replied quickly.
...
The next day, the Straw Hat Pirates were gathered in their room, reading the newspaper, which blamed them entirely for the destruction of Enies Lobby.
"How strange. They don't mention anything about the Franky Family or the Galley-La workers," Gin said, frowning as he flipped through the pages.
"Your grandfather probably manipulated the information and said they had nothing to do with it," Sanji commented, looking at Luffy with a mocking smile.
They all fell silent for a few seconds before exclaiming in unison:
"No! That's not possible at all."
"Maybe it's your sister," Rab suggested, smiling.
"That's not possible either. I even think she was responsible for Luffy's first bounty," Nami said quickly, while the others nodded seriously.
Obviously, Robin already knew who it had been, but she kept her thoughts to herself.
"Well, it's better this way. Otherwise, we'd have to live as fugitives," Sanji said, relieved, thinking about the Franky Family.
"But now it seems like we're the worst of all. It's like we've declared war on the Government and destroyed an island, throwing it into the void," Gin said while continuing to read the newspaper. "With this, our bounties are definitely going to rise even more."
At that moment, a newspaper flew through the open window and landed in the room, catching everyone's attention.
"What is this?" Nami asked, walking over to pick it up. "'Pico News'?" she read aloud the name of the newspaper.
"Isn't that an illegal newspaper?" Rab exclaimed, surprised.
"Illegal?" they all asked in unison.
"Yes, it's a newspaper that seems to be against the World Government and exposes the truth about the nobles," Rab explained, looking worried, as he had heard of it.
"What does it say?" Luffy asked, curious.
"Wait, if it's illegal, we could be arrested just for reading it," Rab said quickly, making everyone look at him in surprise. Then he realized his mistake and corrected himself. "Right, we're already being hunted to be captured. You can continue," he said, embarrassed.

Meanwhile, in Mariejoa, the elders were watching the newspaper with faces full of anger.
"This damn newspaper again! Not only did they talk about Enies Lobby, but also about the existence of CP," said a bald elder, adjusting his glasses in annoyance.
"That's not important right now. We need to find out what happened with Carl and Legios. Those two were key to the mission against the Marines," said another elder quickly, holding a staff in his hands.
"I have bad news. The Vivre Cards they left before departing have been consumed, which means both are dead. And I suppose their deaths were... inevitable," said a third elder, in an irritated tone.
"Tsk! It doesn't matter. Find another CP0 member, someone strong enough to take Legios' place. We need to make the shift quickly before the Marines gain more power," ordered one of the elders, determined.
