"Had no reason to know, my ass. Explain the last few hours. If you had at least left a fricking note we wouldn't have had to waste time raiding a worthless ship! No seriously, they barely had anything worth while!"

On closer look Musahi had several bags tied to her belt. She somehow had the time to get her hands on some poor smucks' wallets. Musashi grumbled while walking away from them. It would appear that the captain and his first mate could keep their limbs... for now...

"This was pretty much a filler part of a story... I hate filler parts of a story... I mean destroying a marine ship was fun, but I at least want something after taking out the disappointing fake..."

Musashi then realized that this would actually effect her.

"Oh, right! We just destroyed a Marine ship that means my bounty will be raised!"

The swordswoman slammed down her fist on her palm in realization. They pretty much declared they were the enemies of the Marines, by attacking, so the ones that had bounties like Musashi would get it raised, while the ones who didn't might get a bounty placed on them. For Known criminal Musashi this was badge of honor, others might not. Well either way Musashi practically shouted out it out in the earshot of the others. The swordswoman started walking down to the front in a slightly better mood when her foot hit a naked tied up man. The difference in their strength caused the bound man to be sent reeling.

"Oh, right you two."

Musashi tilted her head and put her finger on her mouth, before yelling.

"Hey Abbygail, about the two stripped Marines!? Should I cut them up or throw them over the side!?"

There was a surprising lack of a merciful option, unless throwing them over the side meant with their clothes and unbound, but Musashi didn't seem so merciful.

Saki cussed under her breath, realizing she'd been heard. Deciding it was safer to just reveal herself, she called out. "I'm coming out, don't attack." She put her arms up first to show she was unarmed as she climbed out of the barrel.

Kyy sighs. "They're right. Whether we like it or not, our first priority should be getting away from here. We can worry about them later."

Rainer sweatdropped at Abbygails comment. “Usually when I'm stressed I just work on a project or go for a swim, but yeah, raining explosives sounds like a good stress reliever.” He said as he took a moment to assess the situation.

This wasn't like usual when he was just fighting random pirates or nobody bounty hunters after the “Black Limbed Fishman” who accidentally found him. No, these were the MARINES!! Law enforcement of the sea and most powerful organization in the world to his knowledge. What's worse is that if they recognized him he wouldn't be an anonymous fishman anymore but an ACTUAL wanted criminal. Ugh, having an anonymous bounty was bad enough, having to cover up his whole body all the time was already annoying.

“Maybe after this I can just become a hermit.” He mumbled depressed as he moved closer to the edge of the ship, ready to jump off if any of Janet's spears got a little too close for comfort.

Janet stuffed her remaining spears back into her backpack. A person like her wouldn't understand what that man was talking about, but she've gotten the fact that they weren't traitors, in a way.

"Filler? Story?" The tone of speech from that red-eyed girl was too refined and perculiar for a mere pirate. It was the same familiar demeanor of speech that she'd often heard as a child. "Fancy you wasting your time under those boring storybooks, 'High Lady' Musashi."

Janet finished her sentence with a sarcastic sneer. The corner of her eye caught sight of Saki, "Wait... you're that girl from the Marine Ship..."

@Shiyonichi
"Hold on. Hold on." Abbygail said, making wait a minute gestures with her hands. "Let's not just go cutting people up all willie-nillie. I mean, it's one thing to kill them if they're trying to poke you with their swords, or pencils, or anything else that doesn't belong inside the body, but it's one thing completely different to just stab them while they're naked, and tied up, and their eyes are so wide with fright, they're this close to popping out of their skulls like a pair of rats jumping ship. Swordsman's pride, and all that, I'm assuming." She put her hands on her hips and turned to look at the marines. The men were nervous but hopefully nervous. "We'll get near something, an island with people, or without, probably, and throw them on a life boat."

@Crimson Lion
"Sure, you can do it that way." The purple haired girl said with a smirk. "But after downing a marine ship, the bounty is going to be pretty high. There's not a place in the world you'll be able to stay without one money grubber or another who'll throw you to the wolves for a piece of you oh so sweet pie." At that, Abbygail shuddered. "Forget that last part. It doesn't work with me." She shrugged. "Well at least nobody can accusing me of not trying."

@grandia20
Right! Right!" Mark said, clasping his hands together. "I'm glad we're all in agreement then. I'm going to hurry on over to the wheel, and angel us somewhere further away from the nearest marine bases, and hopefully we'll be able to get some distance before the marines start looking for us." He nodded happily, paused and when there wasn't a response, turned to his first mate. "As for you, make yourself useful and go get dinner started. I'm sure our pirate friends are hungry now, after destroying a marine ship." He didn't wait for a word before turning and walking away, with Tim, his second mate, pausing just long enough to look at the group and then going down towards the kitchen.

"I'm not going to attack." Abbygail sighed, pinching the bridge of her nose after the newcomer's hands raised out of the barrel. "I am going to question you though. So get ready for that."

@Noodles
Abbygail arched an eyebrow at Janet. "A friend of yours?" She cocked her head in the direction of the newcomer.

"Ladies and gentlemen." Mark's voice rang out from the intercom. "It looks like the marines were a bit faster than I figured they'd be as there seems to be some of ships heading our way. Now, I'm not sure if they're here for us or just responding to the distress call, but I think it would be best for all of you to get below deck. Get some grub in the kitchen or just hang out in your rooms till it's clear. Whatever you do, just don't poke your heads out, because I have no desire to get my head chopped off with the lot of yous!"

“I was only joking, about the cutting them up part anyway.”

Musashi said with a shrug and a wry simile. Though that was cut off short by Janet’s mockery. There was just a moment where time froze for Musashi, though she quickly played it off using her years of experience as a criminal known as a murder hobo.

“Aw, thanks for the compliment Janet! Want me to read you a bed time story?”

Musashi teased as she went and looked through some barrels. Lifting the tops up before finding a few empty ones. She walked over to the Marines before shoving a cloth in their mouths then tying a rope around their mouths, gagging them in a scene that was probably from quite a few men and Abbygail’s fantasies, which immediately shattered by Musashi violently shoving them into the empty barrels in a reversal of Pop-up Pirates. Pop in Marines! She finished off by sealing the tops and calling it a day. Though she shouted to Rainer.

“Come on only one in five of bounty hunters and Marines are worth worrying over! Though you could get unlucky and meet an admiral! That would suck!”

She grinned as she looked over and saw the newcomers, leaning over Abbygail’s shoulder.

“Well, who do we have here?”

Rainer sweatdropped at Abbygails graphic example of him being chased around for the rest of his life from bounty hunters. “Come on only one in five of bounty hunters and Marines are worth worrying over!" He heard Musashi say, which gave him a small spark of hope that everything would be ok. "Though you could get unlucky and meet an admiral! That would suck!” She finished.

Rainer fell to the floor in a comicly depressed manner, his soul looking like it was leaving his body. "With my luck I'd probably be hunted by all of them." He said with tears.

After a couple of moments, Rainer shook his head and stood up, pushing thethought away till after they got somewhere safe. He then listened as Mark told them to hide under deck, "Yeah, that'd be a good idea for now." He said before noticing Saki, "Ah, who's this?"

Saki sighed. "Okay. I'll save you a little time by answering some in advance. I'm Saki. I snuck on board the marine ship to get at their treasury." She suddenly smiles and climbs out of the barrel. Inside was the loot. "Once everything went down, my only way off was to sneak on board this ship instead."

"Admiral? What's that?" Janet asked. She'd never seen any of those they call 'Admirals' in her third day as a pirate. But from how it sounds, it seemed higher than Captains.

"There's no need for us to wait for those damned Marines, these sea mines will slow them down," Janet dropped her bunch of wooden staves as they went floating about the ocean. What it would do to ships is self-explanatory. "Now we just need to get far enough, and after that sail to One Piece."

She tightened her scarf against the chilling breeze of the morning, speaking as if getting there was like getting to a nearby restaurant.

A seagull landed upon the ship, dropping a roll of newspaper before flying off with a penny from the ship deck.

Janet picked up the newspaper, skimming through the contents, not much of the world's events are of her concern anyways. Island of the Frozen Saint? Sounds familiar. She read that article word for word, her pair of eyes frowning every time they picked up her own name in the article. "I burnt the town...? We rescued them from those dogs who dared to call themselves pirates...!" She snarled, slamming the papers on the table, clearly she was written in a bad light, "And what's with that bounty of yours? Miyamoto Musashi!"

The list of bounty posters were shown on the same page:

Miyamoto D Musashi
20,000,000 Beri

Abbygail
14,000,000 Beri

Janet
13,000,000 Beri

Fell Rainer
1,150,000 Beri

With that, the ship sails for the next island.
