"1 B-B-Billion?" Vivi stammered and looked at Nami with a shocked expression before shaking her head, "No, we can't pay that much!"
Nami gave the bluenette a sidelong glance while crossing her arms under her breasts and scoffed, "Aren't you a princess? If you can't even fork out at least a Billion... I wonder if it's worth protecting you, right Captain?"
The moment she spoke this, Nami regretted ever letting her captain steer the conversation as he nodded as if in agreement only to open his mouth the next second, "It's worth it, no? We're pirates. We'll loot others. So, be quick and get on Pinky. Let's set sail to Arabasta!" His grin made Vivi and Igaram look at one other while Nami took a deep breath and then looked at Brody with her eyes narrowed.
"Captain?" A sweet smile touched her lips.
"Yea?" Brody looked at her innocently.
"You just cost me a billion!" She screamed, her hands around his neck but still failing to properly choke him out as he laughed, "No worries, Nami! I'll pay you back with my body!"
That only stoked the flames of anguish in Nami's heart as she hissed, "Of course, you will! You can't just pick on fights and not expect a reward!"
"Oh... a reward?" Brody blinked and pried himself out of Nami's claws before looking at Igaram and Vivi, "Say... how much bounty does this Crocodile have?"
"Before his bounty was frozen, Crocodile had a bounty of 81 Million," Vivi gulped.
"Oh? Just that?" Brody shrugged, a reaction that Vivi or Igaram didn't expect as Nami's gaze suddenly brightened and she looked at the duo, "Yeah? Just that? Our Captain has a bounty of 99 Million! It's decided! We'll take you to Arabasta... and get rewarded for our efforts..." her smile turning menacing with every second as she leaned down while feeling Brody's gaze linger over her perky bottoms as she suppressed the mixed feeling of annoyance and satisfaction while stroking Vivi's cheek and whispering, "Right?"
"99 Million..." Igaram looked at Brody with a stunned expression.
Smacking his lips and tired of waiting around for the mysterious individual who dragged Vivi all the way to this location for god knows what, Brody looked at Nojiko, "We finally hit the first island. How about we get something to eat?"
"This island is filled with bounty hunters who want to kill us for the bounty on our heads..." Nojiko blinked, "But it sounds like a lovely idea. I'm already feeling hungry after walking so much."
Unknown to everyone a pair of eyes with remarkably blue pupils seemingly a part of the glass of the window near the top of a house watched everything unfold silently while a lone ear was stuck on the back side of a brick not far from the barrel on which Brody sat to hear Vivi describe everything.
---
Brody rightly scowled when he was forced to realize that Bear King was Luffy's sloppy seconds... and to think that he was excited to fight Bear King after learning of his ability. What a Joke!
But he was a bit excited with the prospect of an exhibitionist on their crew...
He stared at the angry Bear King who sported a swollen face after he tried to rebel from his captivity and was put down soon after with an uppercut this time and then he looked at the woman who called herself Honey Queen with her real name being Honey who was covered by a large shirt and a pair of panties.
"So... my crew says you like being naked? What's fun about it?"
He questioned sincerely. If it actually was fun, Brody wanted a piece of that action, too.
Honey's lips twitched before she looked at the defeated Bear King and then smiled, "Hmm, well," she leaned forward. She could try and run but after seeing Brody defeat her previous captain so quickly, Honey Queen decided to try her luck with something else. As Brody still held onto a plate filled with meat while questioning them, Honey took the plate from his hand and let her hand hold his, "Of course, it can be exciting to show yourself off to the right person. You're the new captain, right? Maybe..." Smiling coyly, Honey whispered, "You'd like to take command of my skills. Maybe... you'd like a taste of me. I've been told I taste great."
Brody pursed his lips. At first, he was annoyed that the wench dared take away his food but thinking of her devil fruit and the fact that the so-called Tora Tora no Mi resembled a mixture of various syrups found in nature... Brody was truly enticed to taste her.
Not far from them in the tavern as Brody and Honey seemed unaffected by the sheer clamor of the surroundings as every bounty hunter that could cook had to burn through the city's reserve to treat the pirates with a hearty meal... or lose their arms for attacking them, the majority of the Devil Back Pirate stared at Honey with a deadpan.
"What's going on now?" Tashigi inquired, still not able to see clearly and in need of a pair of glasses that she would be getting soon from one of the more skilled bounty hunters who had other professions.
"Hmm, now Honey is sitting on Captain's lap," Reiju replied with a smile, not the least bit bothered, and ate happily. On the other hand, Mikita frowned and looked at Vivi, "Are you sure that Boss is one of those Ju Busho? Crocodile?"
"I am..." Vivi muttered and she, in turn, looked at the crew's navigator, "Nami-san... shouldn't we hurry to Arabasta?"
"We would," Nami still kept on looking in Brody's and Honey's direction and replied, "But our ship needs her fuel, too."
It was the truth. Most of this food was being prepared for Pinky who was resting just a bit far from the tavern. Her gigantic size and merit in putting down their new Mr. 5 earned her quite a bit of reputation from the bounty hunters.
Vivi nodded in understanding but what she didn't expect was for this to go for all day! Brody and Pinky seemed intent on clearing out the majority of the city's ration and others could only watch in despair. Meanwhile, Honey remained glued to Brody with an absolutely clear intent of trying to win him over but under all this chaos where even bounty hunters were forced to realize that as long as they remain 'honest' they'd be spare, the banquet for one crew turned into a party soon after with Nami pickpocketing many men and women.
"So? Is she our new crewmate?" Alvida decided to walk over after being filled with meat and booze as she sat across from Brody with a somewhat interesting expression. Logia users can be quite tricky opponents but they could prove great allies, too.
Much to Alvida's and Honey's surprise, Brody blinked and shook his head before gulping down a mug of rum, "Nah, not really. I want Mikita!" His voice was as loud as his grin happened to be bright and his words made Mikita, not far away from him scowl at his persistence.
"What? Captain~!" Honey whined, her finger drawing circles over his chest as she pecked the underside of his jaw before whispering, "You're such a tease."
Not bothered by that, Brody shrugged and replied, "Even if I forget that you jumped ships as easily as breathing, you're kinda boring. All sweet and no spice. Mikita, on the other hand, still hasn't jumped ships AND she's got the spice!" His words made Alvida guffaw while Honey's expression soured and she looked around to find others gazing at her with abject mockery rather than lust which wasn't the case a few moments ago!
Meanwhile, Mikita only scoffed under her breath and drank silently.
"Besides, if all you're into is just fucking then you'd rather join someone else's crew who needs bitches. As you can see, I've got plenty—plenty—" Brody grinned only to evade a mug thrown over at him by a profusely irritated Tashigi whose head was killing her from all the booze and no glasses. Of course, even if the woman said she couldn't see things clearly, she always fought without her glasses and had mad perception which showed even in her throw.
"I promise to be loyal!" Honey spoke in a hurried tone as Brody shrugged, "We'll see. So? Would you get off of me now? It's either that or me actually ending the night by taking charge of one needy crewmate."
Blinking, Honey revealed herself responsive to the idea as she whispered, "Well, I wouldn't mind~!"
"Here's a thought," Reiju walked over, "Bear isn't here anymore."
"Oh," Brody looked over and shrugged, "He slipped out during my 68th mug!"
"If you knew why didn't you stop him?" Igaram frowned, finding the youth a little reckless as Brody chuckled, "Relax. I kept an eye on him, didn't I? I wouldn't have even done that but thanks to a Fishman, I've grown for the better."
He winked at Nami and Nojiko who shook their heads with a helpless smile. He truly did grow for the better if he kept an eye on a defeated opponent this time around but Brody was never the one to fret over such 'small' details. And if anything happened, the entire city of paranoid bounty hunters would have been alerted at this point.

"Fuck Honey! Fuck those devils... I'll gather another crew to hunt them down and that traitorous little cunt!" The leader of the Trump Pirates was called Trump Siblings before eventually being disbanded while escaping Clockwork Island after Straw Hat Pirates took care of them. Of them, Bear King and Honey Queen stuck together before a vulture delivered them an invitation alongside a stack of bills and their first mission. Being close to Cactus Island and now armed with its log pose, the duo would set out for another first of the seven islands of the Grandline...
But things didn't turn out too well just after a few days and now, the Bear King manned a somewhat adequate-sized cruise that could be handled alone and watched the log pose to an island with a tag written on its surface— Maximum Island.
Not long after he set out under the watchful gaze of the giant dragon turtle, Bear King suddenly found the bow of the ship torn apart out of nowhere. As if that wasn't startling enough, his expression changed and he looked back with blood eventually leaking from the corner of his lips to find a knife sticking into his back.
"What?" He gasped. Yet, another second, he was smacked by the table from the front and he fell unconscious without knowing the reason for it. After all, the man was already at his weakest point...
In the middle of nowhere, the ship sunk as the water filled the cabin and diluted the pool of blood around the large individual. The cold touch of water made Bear King recover his consciousness somewhat but... he struggled to move.
Under sea water's influence... a devil fruit user could only surrender all their hope.
Bear King's eyes remained wide as he choked on water and failed to move but at this point, he just wished to die due to blood loss rather than suffocation.
On the coast of Cactus Island not too far from Whiskey Peak, a slight sigh echoed under the shade of a tree in the darkness.
*Tuc*
*Tuc*
*Tuc*
The somewhat mechanical sound was succeeded by a 'gacha' noise and a man's voice echoed whose tone was heavy and rich with timber.
"Miss. All Sunday... what is it?"
A rather 'flirtatious' feminine tone responded instead of the exhausted one that sighed not long before.
"The captain of the Devil Back Pirates seems intent on opposing you. He says it's for his entertainment but I believe he has other reasons, too... Princess of Arabasta knows of your real identity. The Unluckies should be reporting it, too."
Miss. All Sunday grew silent as the voice replied, "You failed to complete your mission of taking them out."
"The captain... Brody, has proved more cautious than he looks. Even now, as his crewmates sleep, he watches over them. And I cannot beat a man of this caliber even with my tricks. However, I managed to buy Mr. 5's silence and compensation for failure..."
The voice took some time but it did respond, "What of Miss. Syrup?"
"Unlike Miss. Wednesday, Miss. Syrup has already decided to join the Devil Back Pirates."
"I see... rob all the eternal log pose from the island for the time being. Let the Devil Back Pirates take the natural route instead. By the time they arrive in Arabasta, our work will be done."
"If I may, Mr. 0," Miss. All Sunday requested, "The All-Meat Sea King is a very resourceful entity..."
"I see... that is true. How would you contribute to the mission?"
"By keeping an eye on them. I'll take more than just eternal log poses. Maybe some rations and a ship would suffice for the longer journey. If my intuition is right, Brody Hanma... can be steered in the right direction even if he manages to leave the next island before the intended time."
"Hmm... when it's time, I'll call for you. Watch over them and report daily."
"Yes."
