They'd spent a month docked at Empieza, and finally they were on the move. Sasuke wouldn't deny that they had perhaps needed the time -- to get the ship back into shape, for one, and to pick up a medic-nin, even if that hadn't been in the plans. But an entire month of one small island and an even smaller ship had left Sasuke about as stir-crazy as he could get, and the presence of said medic-nin and her entourage only exacerbated it.

He'd told Naruto and Sakura that he hadn't been doing nothing since arrival, but in all honesty, in terms of real progress, he'd accomplished nothing. Nothing of use, nothing of real import, for all that they had a shard on board and no one had been possessed to kill everyone else recently.

So it was that Sasuke was in the rigging in a better mood than he'd been in all month as they sailed away from the island, heading for rendezvous with the crew of the sailboat that had gone to find fairies.

"You guys talk like I don't have a ton of experience dealing with mooks already!" Luka replied as Link and Itachi debated. Then, as if to prove what she was saying, she spread her so-called "wings" and flew forward, cutting through a long line of navy soldiers.

"You insult me, Luka!" Link replied in jest with a smile a bit unsuiting given the current situation.

"I will keep outside if you with to push forward, Itachi-" He spoke while he fought with relative ease, occasionally pausing to stick or knock out a soldier. He wasn't about to suggest charging for the captain simply to take all the glory.

Luka received a raised brow at the term 'mooks', but the ninja didn't otherwise comment. It sounded a little dehumanizing, and he didn't like to do that to his opponents, no matter how much less of a threat they were. He wasn't exactly in any position to preach, though, and wasn't such a stick in the mud that he was going to butt into what was really harmless light-hearted banter.

"I suggest we all stay on the sidelines at first, then. If the captain looks like he or she will pose a challenge the others won't be able to face easily without us, then we will join the fray as necessary."

"If you guys say so!" she said, before shifting back into Gokai Yellow form. "But I still think I can take 'em!"

As if to support that argument, she took her Gokai Gun and opened fire on the navy soldiers, blasting them back with powerful, but non-fatal explosive bullets.
