Well, speak of the devil. Just as Samehana was about to go look for him, their golden-haired captain arrived. And he had an unfamiliar individual with him. He didn’t look too far off in age from the captain, but there was a distinct difference in the way they carried themselves. He certainly didn’t look like, or even ping her radar as being anyone with any particular strengths as a fighter. So, it ended up coming as quite the surprise when Sancho introduced the boy as their new crewmate. Then again, the guy might have proved that he could be of some use to the crew, so she wasn’t going to complain about the addition of this soft-looking man. If anything, she’d just kick Sancho’s ass later if he proved to be a liability. [color=9966CC]”Nice to meetcha. I’m Samehana, the crew’s cook. Anything ya need, make sure to let me know~.”[/color] the Fishwoman chimed, punctuating her greeting with a cute wink. 

Once she finished her introduction, however, she turned her attention in the direction of the town. [color=9966CC]”As for trouble… Well, not any trouble for us.”[/color] she remarked, having caught wind of a whole host of other presences approaching the harbor. In particular, yet another young individual that happened to be skulking about like some sort of criminal. Assuming that she was with the red coat kid, she simply shook her head as Marines began to barrel towards the dock in short order. [color=9966CC]”You might not like this too much, but I’d like to give the youngsters a nice little headstart on the white-and-blues.”[/color] she stated, quickly counting out the Marines’ number.
Measure twice, cut once as they say. After taking a proper account, she threw a quick jab at the air. Within a few seconds of throwing said punch, the Marines, both on the ground and on the rooftops, were suddenly impacted by enough force to knock them all either unconscious, or at the very least close to it. A small charity brought to the apparent criminals by the wonders of Fishman Karate, lazy though Samehana’s help may have been.

[color=9966CC]”Well, that takes care of the small fry. Looks like it’s about time we make our exit too.”[/color] and with that, Samehana pushed the crew’s bags into Church’s arms before diving into the water by the new galleon. Sancho had already set the sails himself, but the wind wouldn’t be enough to carry them far enough away that the approaching Marines wouldn’t catch up quickly enough to waste their time. So, as the crew’s resident muscle, Samehana decided to work more of her magic. Within a second of Samehana entering the water, the currently-named [i]Blind Justice[/i] began to move out from the port at a rapid pace, being pushed along with the herculean strength of the Black Shark.

Having once again gotten to his feet, Zepp sighed as he took note of the crumpled brim of his hat, having been damaged by his fall onto the deck. “Awww, man. This was a good hat too.” he grumbled before joining Captain Freyja at her side. They’d already lost quite a large number of ships, and their own had sustained heavy damage. And, to top it all off, the majority of that damage had been done by one guy, nevermind the actions his comrades would take to worsen the situation.
“I say we cut our losses and just take whoever we’ve got in. If he has any kind of honor, he’ll probably try and bust his pals outta the slammer in due time. At least then, he’ll be coming to us rather than us trying to chase after ‘im with the ship in this condition.” Zepp suggested, figuring it was about time everyone called it a day. For now, they could consider it a tie.
“Oh, shit. Hey, Johnny, you wouldn’t happen to know where Lt. Kahurangi is, would ya?” Zepp asked, realising that he didn’t see their hulking companion anywhere. They were gonna have to pick him up too, at this rate. “Boom-Boom didn’t do him in, right?”
