Serious: New World arrival, Anubis pirates take on Neteros ((Open to all Anubis pirates))

[[New World sea, Grim Death and Anubis fleet]]

The Anubis pirate ships floated as some of the crew were sweating and sitting down on the docks. It was raining right now, but according to Zalton, there would be sun later. Some of the crew aboard the ship were talking "Damn, we are so lucky to survive the ride, here. That bloody stream was harsh , who the hell wanted to be in there!!!!" Another one then exclaimed, "At least Anubis sama saved us with the sand platform in the air.... but still, then it started raining, New World weather is harsh eh?!" The crew were chattering while Best was bandaging a injured crew member. "Arent they full of optimism... lets hope we survive the new world."

[[Anubis Division commander]]

A young boy was standing next to him in shorts and t shirt, he had a cute face and a good disposition about him "Yeah, well it was scary, i got to say, i thought we wouldnt be able to survive that... and to only lose one ship in the whole ordeal was ok"

Inside the ship at the grand hall of the Grim Death, sat the young looking prince, he had no scars on his face but instead exhumed royal pedigree. He was sitting and reading something. He flipped his black hair behind and then turned to the man standing in the corridor, "Call all the division commanders, we are going to have a meeting, but first summon the elders here... even two of them is enough" AS soon as he said those words, two messengers headed for the den den mushi to summon Maxulus and Clyde, the orders of the captain was absolute after all, the division commanders were also summoned for a bit later. The man sitting in the hall was sighing as he continued to read the newspaper, he hated the rain.

[[Enrico]]
[[Anubis Commander]]
Enrico sat down on the deck sharpening on of his blade with the other, "New World is gonna get a taste of my blade, hahahaha I cant wait!" Enrico walked towards the ship and watched back at the grandline and thought of his father who he had left to join his mother's crew who all but him perished in the journey to new world, he looked at his captain and sighed once more Anubis reminded him much of his father, and the crew was like his family.

Hibiki C Dokuru was laying in bed with a smile plastered on his face. It was an extremely weird smile, because he was forcing himself to smile. They had gone through extremely rough circumpstances to get to the New World and he was just trying to stay under control and not run and jump overboard. He didn't like bad weather and he was extremely tired.

Suddenly, his den den mushi started ringing. He answered it and listened to the words carefully. Umm... a meeting, they were in the new world now, it was obvious that not long could pass without having another meeting. Hibiki stood up and slipped into his normal clothes. He grabbed his Uproar Staff and put it in his back, as always. Hibiki at his seventeen years old was really mature, he was a division commander that could direct people that were older than him. Really good life skill to have...

Hibiki walked to the bathroom. God... his beard was starting to grow slightly, so he got out a shaving knife and he started to use it, using a cream that he had developed to mantain his skin soft. After this, he brushed his teeth and his face and then he went to the meeting room, where Anubis was sitting.

"Good morning Anubis-sama"- Hibiki saluted with a bow of the upper half of his body.

[[On deck]]

Tanith was wiping the sweat off her face with her towel when the ships den den mushi announce "All division commanders please report to the Grand hall of the Grim Death, this is a division commander meeting, please report there, thank you" Tanith then walked towards the deck stairs when on the way she saw enrico "Hey Enrico, your new right? Anubis sama is calling, its time for a meeting" Tanith didnt know anything about this guy, but it seemed that he was someone highly rated by Anubis sama.

[[At the halls]]

Anubis looked up and waved to Hibiki "Hello there Hibiki kun.. have you seen the news today? " Anubis threw the bounty posters at hibiki showing Hibikis new bounty. Anubis smiled as he placed his hand on his chin to hold his head up "It seems you have become more and more famous thanks to this event, i knew it was the right decision to recruit you..... i hope you continue to serve me in this manner." anubis was indeed pleased to see that the crew had grown stronger and had stood the test of time. The Anubis pirates was a crew of tradition after all, and had lasted more than most pirate crews which sailed the New World.

"Hm? Am I needed?" Maxulus wondered as soon as one of the messengers talked to him via a Den Den Mushi and told him that his captain wanted to see him. "I see..." Maxulus said and he took of the mask he was wearing on his face, while experimenting on a machine he had in his room. He put on his glasses and he moved towards a mirror inside his room. There, he checked out his clothing and he fixed the tie on his suit. As an elder, he wanted to look absolutely perfect... As soon as he was done with that, he moved behind the door and grabbed his umbrella. He said "I guess it is time to go..." while getting out of the room and he started walking towards Anubis' room in order to see what he wanted...

Glancing over the railings of towards the sea it seemed calm and pretty the thought of being another person in the New World was exciting but not something huge to him though. He could appreciate how it would be fun for others especially how some people would be excited over fighting with such newer stronger pirates. As they sailed onwards to the new world Mitchell was surprised he still had managed to keep his blade all this time. He remembered back to how it first came to his possession and smirked.

He was happy that he had joined a Yonko's crew but felt like this crew was maybe too big for him. But he wasn't about to leave them though since he had no idea what dangers he would meet alone. The fact that Yonko Anubis wanted to have him in the crew meant something to him and the fact that he was made Commander of Division 11 of the Anubis Pirates made him smile.

He hadn't ever really been trusted by many people so it was a nice turn of pace to see how he'd been welcomed with open arms an placed in charge. He unsheathed his blade and held it before him reading the inscription along the blade. He hadn't done much socialising since joining the crew and as he held the sword he couldn't help but feel strength from the words on the blade.

"The blood of a stray always finds a way."

The words had been true for him and helped him through some tough times in life. He hated being parted from his blade it made him feel so horrid every time he was. As the ship shook a little over the sea he nearly lost his blade into the water below but he caught the tip of the blade and lifted it back up and aboard. Sheathing it again he stood up tall and proud and smiled.

He was on his way to the New World a place where only the strongest of Pirates made it in hopes of fulfilling their dreams of becoming Pirate King.

Johnathan lazily sat on the deck of the Grim Death like he usually did. He polished his hammer until the black metal glared in the sunlight. With a couple of swings he tested it to have something to do. The time it takes to traverse the seas with a ship always bored him to tears. He despite being a giant was much faster in the water, some even went as far as to suggest he had fishman blood in him somewhere down the line. In all honesty he didn't know and couldn't care less.

[Meanwhile On an Island Not too Far Off]

Three figures cloaked in shadow stood conversing with each other. One was a woman sitting in a large throne looking chair. The other two were men.

"I'm sorry to report they took over the area with the red flowered plant than you want." said one of the men.

"Sigh, I figured as much, those bastards have no respect for the area. If they level it all of the base items we need will be destroyed. At least we were able to protect the spotted deer, by penning them up here. Their antlers are very precious to our cause." the woman said to the two men.

Hibiki looked at Anubis-sama with a weird look in the face. At first he had no idea what he was talking about when he asked if Hibiki had seen the news today, but then he threw a bounty poster at Hibiki. It had his photograph... god. This was the first time he got a bounty... and it was no more or less than 50 million belli!!! WOW! What a great impact he had done in the war for Alabasta.

Yeah, it was true. He had, apparently, been a pain in the ass for most marines, especially for the newly named Admiral Payne. To think that Hibiki survived an admiral's rage. Of course that was only possible because he had Anubis-sama's help. He was really happy about his new bounty. Bounties weren't usually a good sign for a normal person, but for a pirate it only meant that they were feared. Other pirates used bounties as a reference.

Obviously, the exceptions to this rule were Yonkous and Shichibukais... they didn't need to have great bounties because their bounties were already hidden. No one had any idea of what their current bounty was, because the government already saw them as a permanent thread and probably didn't feel it was a productive way to spend their time if they were putting new bounties to every new deed the Yonkous managed to do.

Hibiki was smiling stupidly at his new bounty poster. He looked at Anubis in the eyes when he said that he had been right about choosing Hibiki as a new recruit. Hibiki had been training a lot since the events in Alubarna. Hibiki smiled at Anubis-sama, of course he would continue serving him as much as he could. It was his duty.

"Of course Anubis-sama. Thank you for letting me now." -Hibiki told him, feeling really proud that it was non-other than the captain of the yonkou crew that informed him about his new bounty.- "Wow... fifty million belli is a lot."

Hibiki was glad that Anubis-sama's health had recovered. He was also worried about whatever happened to ex-shichibukai Gael. He had lost his title to help Anubis recover Alabasta. Hibiki used this opportunity to ask about that.

"Umm Anubis-sama... if I may... Is your health getting better?" -he asked. -"Since ex-shichibukai Gael have you that plant you've regained your health incredibly. How is he, by the way? Do you know anything about him?"

"Maneuver 7! Piranha Avalanche!" The pair of Pirahna brothers, Ran and Ro shouted simultaneously. on deck of the fishman division ship. They both then sprinted towards the same direction, facing non other than the division commander, and an Anubis council member, Clyde the jellyfish fishman. As they grew closer, Ro took a position in front of Ran, allowing the later to leap on his back and quickly launch himself upward, using his brother's back a ramp to get above Clyde. "Execute!" The brothers shouted as their move took form. From the deck, Ro aimed a two handed punch towards Clyde's gut, while Ran aimed a two legged kick at Clyde's head, both brothers using their immense fishman strength to KO their captain.

As the brothers attacked him with all their might, Clyde simply smiled and chanted "Zeri-Yugami". Clyde's body then twisted, reaching unbelievable angles. His head and neck moved to the right, while his stomach moved to the left, and his back moved back, while both of his feet remained on the ground. It was like he was made out of jelly, well, that was actually the case. The piranha brothers' faces turned into pictures of horror as their attacks collided without even touching Clyde, making Ran crash over his brothers back and sending both of them falling toward the deck. "I told you there was no point to this bet, you'll always be the ones who scrub the deck" Clyde explained cheekily. The ship shook as Kelp, the white whale fishman, burst in laughter, making the sea bellow the ship tilt. But Clyde couldn't stay and make more jokes, since he could hear his den den mushi ringing in his room.

"You rang Anubis-sama?" Clyde asked as he stepped through Anubis' room's door, bowing in front of his captain. He was soaking wet, both from the rain and from his little showdown with the Piranha brothers, but thanks to the rain most of the crew members were wet as well, so he wasn't so sorry for stepping into the room like that.

[[On the deck]]

A iberian looking man with a flower shirt and a rose in his breast pocket walked behind Mitchell "Ahh, buenos dias senor, you must be the new division commander yes? Ah, i can sense that you are a passionate person, who burns with a flaming passion!!!!!" He imeddiately held his hand up "We must work passionately for Anubis sama dont you agree, a man like him is always on fire, always so passionate!!!! Dont you agree as well, Johnathan san!!!" Alfresco was talking to the giant Johnathan as well. The announcement for all the division commanders to gather in the hall was then repeated.

[[Anubis pirates division commander]]


[[The halls]]

Anubis was humming a tune to himself when Hibiki was asking him how his health was. He had certainly recovered, it seemed he had recovered sucessfully. Anubis then smiled "I am feeling quite well, i believe i have made a good recovery... i think Gael has retired, he has also left the title of shichibukai and has gone into recluse. While he was one of my most closest allies, i do not know much about his past at all... it wasnt something we talked about often..." Then Clyde entered the room "Ahjhh Clyde , im glad your here my friend..... we should discuss the next island we are going too... i think we should wait for Max before we continue..... have you met Hibiki? He is the fastest rising star on this crew at the moment"

"Hm? Wait for me?" I am already here..." Maxulus said as he turned form a corner and reached the hall where Anubis and Clyde were. He slowly walked towards the direction of his captain and his fellow elder. Apparently, he wanted to know what his captain wanted him and see whatever he could do. Now that he was an elder, it was his responsibility to please his captain's wishes more than he did before. As a result, he started working more and more and at that time he was in the middle of an experiment for a new weapon. "So... What do you want me, Anubis-sama? Is there anything I can do?" Maxulus asked his captain while bowing to him.

Enrico nodded his head and said "Thank you also what is your name and where is the meeting." Enrico was being friendly because he was bored and there was nothing to do on the ship as it slowly sailed through New World. Enrico sighed as he awaited a response from the woman as he sheathed his blade.

[[the hall]]

Anubis laughed at such a question, it seems as usual, Maxulus was wrapped in his own little world. Anubis then pointed at the map and the pose. "We have just arrived in the New World, and we need to discuss, which island we will be visiting soon i believe, the council should be able to make a decision for the whole fleet."

[[Tanith and enrico]]

Tanith pointed and began walking "Yeah, you can follow me, its in the grand hall" Tanith found new members to be quite weird. It would seem that alot of new and upcoming pirates were now joining. This would only be good for the anubis pirates as a whole. Tanith had always wondered if the new Anubis pirates would be able to stand up during a time where Steel pirates and dusk pirates were everywhere. It seemed that Anubis sama always found a way.

Hibiki listened to Anubis's words. It was great he was getting better... the Anubis Pirates didn't need another near death experience of their captain and even worse, another near-death experience where their captain had to fight against incredibly strong marines and other enemies while he was extremely sick. Then he started talking about Gael... apparently he had retired. Well, obviously he had left the Shichibukai title, that's not something that surprised Hibiki very much, since it had come up in the newspapers and now everyone knew that one of the strongest members of the Royal Shichibukais had left.

Suddenly Clyde popped into the room. He was the Commander of the Anubis Pirates' Fishman Division if Hibiki wasn't mistaken. Hibiki smiled at him and rose a hand to wave at him, not to much like a little kid, but in a serious manner. When Anubis-sama said that Hibiki was the "fastest rising star on this crew" Hibiki blushed terribly. Anubis started saying that they should wait for Maxulus when that same person popped into the room.

Anubis started saying that they had just arrived in the New World and that they needed to discuss about the next island they were going to visit. It was true... their first landing in the New World couldnt be to far away now. Hibiki turned to look at Maxulus and Clyde, just a peek to see their face expressions, he then turned to look at Anubis-sama.

"Umm..."- Hibiki was thinking. They didn't know anything about the island, and the Grandline's log pose was completely different from the New World's one. The new one had three "compasses" that pointed at three different islands. Apparently, there were many more island in this side of the Grandline.- "Well, since we don't know anything about the next island. We should choose one of the three islands that the log pose is pointing at and send scouts to take a look at the island."

"Looking at it from a distance might give us some information about the precautions we should take, or if you preffer it, we could send scouts to the three islands to see which of them looks like the safest, or the one that hides the most treasures or maybe the most interesting one."

Enrico began to follow the woman to what was known as a the grand hall. "Wow This ship is big, and also madame you never answered my question about what is your name." Enrico was genuinely smiling trying to be nice. "Also what is Anubis-sama like, what does he act like I heard of the war in Alabasta so I can tell he can be serioius but what is he like outside of battle."

"Oh yeah, sure...." Johnathan said not really paying attention to the other man. The giant wasn't exactly the shining example of passion, he would fit better under the role of sloth than anything. Lazily the giant stood up and fell over the side of the ship into the water. The resulting splash sent a large wave against the ship rocking it slightly. Laying on his back, John just floated there trailing behind the ship without a care in the world.

As someone spoke to Mitchell he turned to show he was showing full attention and smiled as the man spoke to him. As he said he seemed like a passionate man with such fire. As the man mentioned about him being a Division Commander Mitchell smirked. He was happy to have been taken as one and looked out at everyone else grinning.

As he listened to what others had to say and looked at everyone he could see Giant Johnathan and wondered of his strength. Obviously being a giant he was stronger than himself but he wondered of his strength.

"A decision made from us, huh? I see..." Maxulus said with a serious voice as soon as he listened to the question of his captain. He got up and he looked towards Anubis while readjusting his glasses. He said while keeping his serious look on his face "It will take me a while in order to decide where we should go... There are many islands around the New World and so this is a quite difficult decision. However, one thing is for certain. No matter where we go, we will find some people that might be equal to our strength if not superior... The only thing that we should think about is to sail through places were the weather and the environment around can benefit us instead.". Then, he looked towards Clyde to see what he would say over the matter.

[[Halls]]

Anubis then grinned at what they said and then brought forth a new world pose. Each of the arrows were showing like this in order. "Safe, safe, DANGEROUS" Anubis grinned and then pointed to the most Dangerous arrow and then laughed loudly "What do you thnk about going to the most exciting looking island!!!"

[[Tanith and Enrico]]
Tanith found it hard to describe the greatness of Anubis sama. She was so loyal to Anubis that she couldnt really think of anything bad, well, other than his recklessness and his cunning nature and the fact that he is obssessed to a fault when it comes to his ambitions. Tanith then finally said to Enrico "He is a focused man, he will do anything it takes and he will be honest to you. And he is strong too, some people say Iken or Maximillion are more powerful, but Anubis sama uses wit to match these foes instead of raw power, its something grunts like us dont handle well..... but whats more is Anubis sama ability to make the world feel right.... he is a god to his followers, but a tyrant to his enemies"

[[Alfresco and Mitchell and Johnathan]]

Alfresco then walked to the stairs "Are you coming my passionate friend? I think Johnathan might not be joining us at the halls right now, but we can go ahead and meet Anubis sama with a FIERY PASSION!!!" Alfresco was of course talking to Mitchell.

"Of course, I'd love to meet the man with such a fiery passion you speak of. It would be an honour to meet Anubis one of the 3 Yonkos. I'm really hoping I can learn a thing or two from him. I have heard so much about him and his exploits I am certain he will not disappoint me."

Following Alfresco Mitchell was excited to meet Anubis as he'd never really had much of an interaction with him and couldn't wait to meet him. He could feel his heart beating faster and faster and felt how his adrenaline shot through his body. He was excited to meet someone so powerful and walked with a nervous purpose towards the Yonko.

Hibiki looked at Anubis-sama, what a passion for the exciting he had. Of course, how didn't Hibiki see it coming before. The most dangerous islands were obviously going to be the most interesting and exciting ones. Hibiki just hoped that none of his crewmates lost their lives in this dangerous island. Hibiki looked at Anubis and nodded slightly.

"Shall I send a scout to take a look at the island?" -Hibiki suggested. Even if the island was going to be dangerous Hibiki preffered to be informed about the geography and the things that were going on in it. Hibiki was thinking of sending his own crewmate Rem Angelhair, who could use the Candy Fruit to "skate" towards the island without needing to use a boat.- "I offer someone from my division who can do the work quite easily. My chef Rem."

Hibiki looked at the other members of the council, he didn't want to take any decisions alone, so he just sticked to leaving it as an idea that he wouldnt pursue in case it was rejected.

"The idea of going to the most dangerous island is great, Anubis-sama. The most dangerous islands are the most interesting ones. If you give me your permission, I'd like to take a look at the plants from the island we're visiting just in case I find one with curative properties." -Hibiki asked. His dream was to write a book where he collected all the plants of the Grandline and the properties they had. He had done a lot of progress on it.

"Wow He sounds so great although someone you wouldn't want to betray, and yet he is so smart to be able to match the other yonkos with wits incredible. "So you know my name, what is yours?"

Clyde flashed a thin smile, he admired both Anubis' courage and Maxulus' tactics and intelligence. "I still haven't got a proper chance to study the marine life on this part of the Grand Line, so I'm not sure how dangerous the water are, but I can take my division to scout nearby islands. We can travel faster than the fleet, and I assume we can handle most of the trouble on our own" He said. Clyde trusted his division's strength. The Piranha brothers trained a lot in the last few months, and Kelp was in a decent shape, he doubted there was anything in the water that could challenge them, but he also knew from past experience that the water shouldn't be underestimated. He then turned to Anubis. "Give me the word and I'll have my division in the water in 10 seconds."

[[Tanith and Enrico]]

Tanith then looked to Enrico "Im Division 12s co commander Tanith Conrow" Tanith said her name out loud, she wasnt embarrased about who she was and what she had accomplished in the Anubis pirates. She was a veteran here already, it was time she acted like one.

[[Anubis]]

Anubis then looked to all of them and sighed, what happened to the good ol days when surbordinates just obeyed every word. Anubis then laughed , it was alright to let them delegate, this was the point of a big crew. Anubis then pointed to Clyde "Very well , Clyde will send his scouts, i am counting on you Elder Clyde , report everything and we will begin our descent!!!!" Anubis then looked to Hibiki "Your permission for plants research is allowed as well as Maxulus's research, but you will have to wait for Clyde kuns scouting report.... in the meanwhile, i asked for the division commanders, but they seemed to be late..... Maxulus, could you gather them for me?"

"Aye aye captain Anubis" Clyde said before rising from his sit and rushing out of the meeting. As he got to the deck, he didn't waste a moment and jumped over the railing and into the water of the New World. Swimming blindingly fast, Clyde reached the ship of his division in a blink of an eye. "Kelp, Ran, Ro, Link the ship to the Grim death and get down, we're going for a little scouting operation ASAP" Clyde said. "FINALLY! Something to do!" Ro screamed, before he was punched by his twin brother. "Shut it and link the ship" Ran said before leaping to the water. Ro threw a loop of rope from the Bubble Trouble to a pole on the Grim Death's deck, linking the two ships together so they won't grow apart while the Bubble's crew is off, before leaping down after his brother, joining Clyde and the gigantic Kelp in the water.

"We scatter, each of us will search in a different route and report back through the Den Den Mushi, we're heading to that direction" Clyde said and pointed to the direction the New World Pose pointed, and the three division members nodded in agreement. The fishmen didn't waste a moment and scattered, each of them swimming in a different direction and disappearing from sight. "Gyorai!" Clyde announced as he accelerated, reaching Soru speeds in a moment. He was by fa the fastest of the division, and naturally was the first to come across land on his route. He pulled his head out of the water to get a better look at the land, which seemed like a winter island. "I got something, a winter island, seems pretty big" Clyde called into his Den den Mushi, informing his comrades. "I got something two, a spring island, pretty big as well" The voice of Ro answered. "How odd, I just came around a summer island and its huge" Ran called a moment later. "I got a fall island here, large as well" Kelp's booming voice erupted from the Den Den Mushi in response.

"Wait a second..." Clyde mumbled. It was odd, but he could have sworn he could hear Kelp's voice coming from somewhere besides the Den Den Mushi. He pulled his head back into the water and began swimming in a fair distance along the island's coast line. 'It can't be...' He thought as he torpedoed through the water, but when he spotted a gigantic shadowy figure in the water in front of him, it all became clear. "I can't believe it..." he called through the Den Den Mushi. "We're, we're all looking at the same island!" He called. Clyde was right, the islands they all came across were connected, forming one gigantic, multi-seasoned island. It was unbelievable, even though they split up they all ended up here, meaning that the island was even bigger than it seemed, impossibly big. "Anubis-sama, do you read? We found something, that island is not only dangerous, it's insanely huge! Should we proceed to investigate?" Clyde asked through the Den Den Mushi, hoping to inform Anubis of his findings.
