To go with your crew...

Style: Text or prose
Status: Open to all



The black fortress ripples with shimmering iridescent energy, the piles of black coral heaped on roped together barges around it, bobbing in the waves. On the largest barge stands a slender man with a copper belt, wearing a face mask, orange red hair flecked with black from ash or dust. As the dawn slowly folds over the ocean, he'll look up, as if hearing some hidden voice.

At the top of the fortress, a figure climbs into vision, a woman, dressed in gray, features obscured by a hood with impenetrable darkness behind it. She staggers a moment as if she is weary, then straightens to her full height. As she speaks, her voice comes out of the journals, echoing over the water, low but clear.

"This is no small task ye do. She that rots within'll do anythin' ta stop ye. Don't hesitate to kill what ye find. If they were human once, they hain't no more. Watch out for her golems, too, or they'll drain ye dry quicker'n a wink. But if ye can get rid of 'em, it'll weaken her." She hesitates, cants her head to the side. "And if ye lot aren't as much of a bunch'a idiots as usual, ye might come out alive through this."

That said, she raises her hands. After a moment so does the man on the barge. For a moment, nothing seems to happen and then iridescent light shimmers over the coral, seeming to match that which surrounds the fortress. It crackles and dances like a fire, and then without warning bursts into a furious life, slamming against the energy of the fortress. There is the sound like thunder and light snaps and crackles, zipping with energy. Then with a woosh the light flies upward, taking the figure with it. The man on the barge lets out a cry like a seagull and dives into the water as if intending to swim after her.

For the boats that remain, a part of the fortress will crumble away into the sea, revealing a small harbor and an open doorway. Enter all ye who dare.

[Pinkie isn't even bothering with looking back. She knows Zoro's there. Somehow. Or maybe she's like ninety-four percent sure!

She manages to hop over a sword aimed at her, but lands on the blade. Blowing a raspberry, Pinkie somehow manages to stay on despite the enemy shaking the sword all around trying to get her off it. How does she do that?!]

[Zoro is gaining a new respect for their odd crewmates - at the very least, he can see why they fit in with the Straw Hats. He crouches, poising his blades over his shoulder]

Oi! Jump or duck or something!

[that's all the warning she gets before he unleashes an O-Tatsumaki, a veritable tornado of cutting air that sweeps across the dock to take out...preeeeetty much everything that doesn't jump out of the way

Oh! Okay! [As Pinkie jumps off the sword, the attack comes. She actually gets out of the way in time! Once she lands, she looks at Zoro with wide eyes.]

THAT'S SO COOL!! DO IT AGAIN!!

[shrug. Not like it's not effective. It's very effective! For clearing large swaths of nameless, faceless zombies. Zoro looks along the shore's edge to see where the ships are currently positioned, and shifts to send another whirlwind of death along the shoreline to clear paths for the others escaping the fortress]

There. That should do for now.

Zoro! You're so cool! [Pinkie stomps on the ground in applause before literally bouncing towards their ship.]

C'mon!
