Chapter: What do you want here..???

Hall oils everyone !!! XD

First of all, I have to point out again at this point that Portgas D. Ace is already sitting in Impel Down in my story at the time of the Kaiser's meeting. Luffy is also there to save his brother.
(I mentioned this at the beginning of the story, i.e. chapter 1, but in order to avoid any confusion, I'll say it again here.)
The Navy wanted to prevent Whitebeard from freeing his "son". For this reason, they only informed the Shibukai of the impending execution and condemned it to absolute silence. Therefore, the rest of the world (including the emperors) has no idea what is happening at Marineford.
Perhaps a bit absurd, but ... hey .. Freedom of the author !!! XD
And if you now ask yourself the (legitimate) question, how did Luffy find out before ... well, Boa Hancock of course, who is also a samurai of the seas. XD

But now enough pointless talk!
Off to the story!

Chapter 3

"Review beginning"

For a moment there was silence on the ship when almost everyone shouted: "ACE ??????"

"Review end"

The two teams looked at Hawk's Eye in amazement. It was not often that a samurai of the seas would go to an emperor to talk to him about one of his crew members.
But before anyone could comment on it, Mihawk addressed Shanks: “A short one-to-one conversation?” For a moment the redhead looked at him with an indefinable look before he nodded. “Let's go to my ship, we will be undisturbed there!” With these words he turned around and walked towards the Red Force.
But before Falkenauge followed him, he turned to Nami: "You best wait here. It won't take long!" With these words followed the one-armed emperor.

Both the pirates and Nami looked after the two in amazement. After a while, however, the orange-haired woman averted her eyes and leaned against the railing. With a thoughtful look she looked at the sea and played lost in thought with her necklace pendant. The sword, which she had used in battle a few moments ago, now leaned carelessly next to her on the railing.
So she did not notice how the pirates on the ship had recovered to some extent and now two members of the Whitebeard gang were approaching them. Only when Aka and Matt were standing right next to her, Nami was startled from her thoughts.

"So you are the navigator of the Straw Hat Gang ???" Aka wanted to know right away, whereupon Matt could only shake his head. 'Not a bit of sensitivity' she thought to herself, but said nothing more. Nami, however, just smiled before answering: "Yes, for almost exactly 3 years. And you are ...?!" The navigator looked at the two of them questioningly. But this time it was Matt who said: "So my name is Matt and this is Aka. We are the commanders of the 4th.Division of the Whitebeard Gang. Nice to meet you. "Likewise!" Nami replied with a grin. When Matt mentioned both of their names, Nami barely noticeably knitted her eyebrows, but didn't go into it any further. However, she didn't really have much time for it, since Aka spoke up again. " Tell me, how is it that a member of the Straw Hat gang is out on the seas with a samurai? It didn't look like you captured, did it? "

Nami just looked at her for a moment before she suddenly burst out laughing. Aka looked at Matt, confused. But even she could only shrug her shoulders. "T .. I'm .. sorry," Nami said, still laughing, "but d .. the ... the thought, haha, ... the thought that I am his ... his prisoner. "Is really too weird!" After a few seconds, she caught herself again and, still chuckling, wiped the tears from her face. Then she turned back to the two commanders: "Sorry !!! But that had to be." she said, still grinning.

"So ?? How did you end up with Falkenauge ???" Aka finally wanted to know. Matt looked at her expectantly too. However, Nami's gaze darkened when she heard the question. "So you really want to know why I'm on the road with him, yes?" When the two pirates nodded, she continued. "Well, whatever you want, but one thing you should know, it won't be a nice story."

"meanwhile on the Red Force"

In the meantime, Shanks and Hawk Eye had gone to the Red Force and were sitting in the captain's room. "Well," said the red, who was sitting on a chair across from Mihawk, "now tell me. How on earth do you get the honor of teaching the navigator of the Straw Hat gang sword fighting?" He looked at his old man questioningly Fighting rivals and although he said so in a rather casual tone, the serious expression on his face spoke volumes. Hawk Eye also noticed this and got straight to the point. "Well, obviously your protégé's gang has been severed!" Hawkeye began to tell him, whereupon Shanks' facial features slipped. "How, ... what do you mean?" he looked at the samurai in dismay. "Well, according to the Thieving Cat's words, the gang on the Sabaody Archipelago was surprised by Bartholomew Bear. And after an extremely brief fight, it seems that all the crew members have been sent through him, to undefined places around the world. And Nami had fortunate enough to land right in front of me after a three-day journey. However, she was pretty battered. I have to admit that I was very impressed by how quickly she got back on her feet. But where the rest of the crew went, she was able to tell me he explained with a serious expression. "You know Bartholomew Bear and his devil powers, Shanks. He could have shipped them somewhere else."" Are you telling me in all seriousness that the little one is stuck somewhere on the Grandline, no wait, .. somewhere in the WORLD, without friends and without a ship. "In the meantime the emperor had got up from his chair and walked from one end of the room, with wildly gesticulating arms, to the other, watched by hawk-eye with raised eyebrows." This is a catastrophe! We have to find him !!! "But before he could go back on deck and implement this decision, Hawk-Eye blocked his way." Stop! Wait! "He stopped him, whereupon the red man looked at him confused." I know that you wouldn’t rather do it now than set off straight away. But, as sorry as I am, the little one will unfortunately have to do without your help for some time. We have a much bigger problem! "He explained and looked him piercingly in the eye.

"Back on the Moby Dick"

In the meantime Aka and Matt had also learned from Nami how she had met the samurai.
"Does that mean that your entire crew is scattered around the world and you have no idea where they are or when you will meet again?" Matt wanted to know with a shocked expression. "Exactly." Nami agreed. "And you ended up with Hawk's Eye through Bartholomew Bear, who helped and agreed to teach you to swordfight?" Aka finished the astonishingly short, yet extremely precise summary. Here too the navigator of the Straw Hat gang nodded. "That's right, that's roughly how the whole thing went." she replied, but did not look at the two pirates, but looked thoughtfully at the sea.

"And now???" Aka wanted to know, whereupon Nami startled out of her thoughts and looked at her confused. "How? And now !!!" "Well, what exactly are you going to do now? You surely want to get back to your crew as soon as possible, right?", The pirate helped her on the jumps. "Yes, ... but before I go looking for you, I have to help an old friend who is in pretty big trouble. Only then can I go back to my friends." Nami replied and smiled at the two of them, whereupon they gave each other confused looks.

Should I ever have a little more time, maybe I'll write a one shot about how exactly Nami ended up with the samurai. But as I said. Only when I have more time. !!! XD

I hope you enjoyed this chapter. It cost me a lot of work, especially since I somehow deviated from my original idea.

I hope you guys leave a few reviews! Would be glad.!!
