Well the man who had fled somewhere in the ship had insisted on introductions, and the people aboard seemingly happily obliged. He already knew who Hertha was as he invited her personally, but he was intrigued when he learned that his current shipmates consisted of a wandering child of a conman, a devil fruit powered sniper, a paranoid mystery man and a dwarfed giantress pirate.
Ah, Good I love introductions, Eden proclaimed as he stood up in excitement. "As though some of you know, I am the Ex-Pirate Captain of the Cosmos Pirates, Eden 'Black Hole' Merrick. I have the power of the space space fruit which gives me control of gravity." Eden's face was covered by a large smile after his introduction, he then focused his eyes on the snail beside them, "How about you Mr. Snail guy?"

"Black Hole Merrick," Handel thought to himself. It would seem he's the only actual pirate on this ship. Handel got out of the crate he was hiding in and slowly made his way through the hold. "You can call me...'Amadeus'. I'm...a traveling musician," he said into the portable den den mushi in his hand. He now stood in the doorway that led outside and saw everyone gathered around Captain Eden. "It seems we've got a strange assortment of fellows here," he said, now speaking directly to the group, "but we're all, quite literally in the same boat, and knowing the marines, we're probably all in trouble with the authorities now simply for having gotten on this boat, pirate or not. I have no goals of my own, and as long as I have a guarantee that we're not going to kill each other, backstab each other, turn each other in to the authorities, or better yet, eat each other, I will be just as happy to remain on this ship and stay out of sight, offering what help I can as a humble musician." With this, he bowed deeply, as if he had just finished a violin solo at a concert hall.

Lucky listened to what the captain of the ship, his eyes widen as he found out that the captain was Black Hole Merrick. 'What luck...' He thought with great speculation, he never expected for the captain to be...this young yet he could tell himself that. He shook his head, deciding to talk to him later and goes back to see the man with the dark hair came out where he was hiding and introduced himself. He seemed interested in what the guy's name was Amadeus which he didn't care anyway and was saying. Its true that they are stuck here for now but at least he wasn't capture by the Marines. Lucky walked to the man showing his empty palm. His face showed a defiantly annoyance and bitterness. "My map...I have been waiting...."

Eva raised an eyebrow at the bespectacled man's introduction. She clearly heard Ricden call him 'Handel' before. It was obviously an alias and judging from how careful the man had been up to this point, she didn't see anything strange about it. He wanted to hide something from them, but what? She decided she'd speak with "Amadeus" later when it was just the two of them. Besides, it seemed as though Lucky wanted to talk with him first.

Eva turned to Black Hole while crossing her arms over her chest. "So Merrick, where exactly are we heading first?" She asked.

"Oh, right, here you go, Skippy," Handel said, handing Lucky his map back, trying to ignore how unhappy Lucky looked. "Any idea where or what this map leads to?"

Eden smiled, "Well welcome aboard my make shift sailing mates. I can promise you that I wont be eating anyone Amadeus" He laughed at the musicians worries. "And as for our destination... I dont know." We walked to the wheel of the ship and looked at the log pose embedded in its pedestal. "We are on the grandline and the only way to navigate is following a log pose. So there is going to be a little bit of island hopping before we find a city big enough for everyone to be on their way."

Eden looked off to the horizon, "We are on the right path, and I have this feeling that we should get there soon. Did anyone have any worries other than cannibals they wanted to discuss?" He remarked with a laugh.
