Let's Go Back. Together!
Merry Hearth's Warming everyone!
Merry Christmas everyone else!
and Happy Holidays to the remaining!
Last time on My Little Pony: Nakama is Magic…
“I wonder what’s taking those guys so long.” Rainbow Dash spoke staring at the other side of the bridge referring to their friends.
“Don’t worry.” A feminine voice spoke softly to the group. “I won’t let you die!”
‘Am I dreaming?’ Sanji thought as he saw the blurred image of their savior. ‘Drowning sailors are said to have seen a graceful tailfin through their fading consciousness.’
‘They look up to see long hair rippling in the sea.’
‘A vision of beauty…’ In his oxygen-depleted sight, the navy blue stallion saw that which was considered both myth and legend. Spoken in stories and gossiped about by old sailors.
‘A Mermare.’
‘If this is a dream, then I…’
“Hold on to your breath everyone!” shouted Kokoro, the mermare. “We’re taking the express line!”
Not surprisingly, nearly everyone lost their breath as the illusion was broken by cold, hard reality. ‘A… Du… A dugong?!!’

Soon, the Black Navy finished conducting their inspection and evacuation. They then began sailing away from the island, but not too far. Just enough to be in range of the island and be out of range for anymore incoming cannon fire from their fellow battleships. Once so, they readied to fire on the criminals.
“Oh no!” screamed Zambai terrified. His fellow gang members screaming as well.
And unfortunately, they had run out of time. The battleships soon fired on the sleipnirs and their comrades. The blasts propelled everyone backwards, destroying what remained of the gate, and leaving the entirety of the group to fall down into the lightless pit.

Then, shooting out of the water came the mermare Kokoro and all their friends in her net – actually her jacket. She shouted with gusto, “Don’t you guys die on me!”
“What, you kiddin’ me?” Franky said jovially, “My Bros have more lives than a cat, they’ll find their own way off the island.”
“Reporting from the northwest, outside the main gate… The bombing…has wiped them all out. They’re all dead. Nothing could have survived from that attack.”
“Hurry up, Straw Hat!” Franky shouted with renewed conviction. “Your friends are waiting! I won’t allow you to die before you reach them!”
Then, came a shout. “Blow up the bridge now!” Soon followed, the bridge near the building was blown-up by the warships.
With our heroes separated from their captain, and the indomitable Buster Call approaching them, will they hold out in time? Can Luffy defeat his enemy? Can they all escape? Find out now!
Luffy & Twilight: We’re always shining, running, forever
Sharing the best adventures together
And as we follow our dreams however crazy they seem
We won’t stop until we reach the end so
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up heartbeat! We are the one! Go ahead!
My Little Pony
Nakama is Magic
The only rule that we obey is to run free
Mane Six plus Spike (chorus): We are best friends
Don’t ever let a compass show you the way to go
Just pick the route that looks the most exciting!
Raise the flag and sail on full speed ahead
Straw Hat 7 (chorus): Go east, go west
It doesn’t matter who or what’s standing in our way,
We’ll make it through them everyday
You won’t get anywhere if you’re waiting for the sun to rise
All (chorus): I can’t wait
So spread your wings and meet it in the sky, leave earth below
Just follow its light and get going, go!
So as we’re Shining, Running, Forever!
When all the pieces of our dreams have merged
You’ll feel a joy inside that you can’t explain
And that’s the treasure we must find!
We’re always shining, running, forever
Sharing the best adventures together
And as we follow our dreams however crazy they seem
We won’t stop until we reach the end so
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up heartbeat.
We are the one! Go ahead!
Can you count the lives destroyed on a map?
Is justice worth the total erasure of an entire island?
The Black Navy’s ultimate military action, the Buster Call, was as heartless as it was powerful. Justice was its goal, but anyone else could feel that it was anything but. That is, if any normal creature could witness one. Information based around a Buster Call was often censored or altered to fit the needs of the Black Empire and it’s Navy. The island of Ohara, an incident well famous to any scholar, was a prime example. “The Demons of Ohara”; that was the excuse used to scare the public into making them complacent and thus hide the truth. Only poor Nico Robin had known the truth and seen its horror. It would haunt her for much of her life until this point. When the Buster Call was activated again, here on Enies Lobby; the judicial island for the Empire. But now, she was not alone. She had her crew; now full of even more of her cherished ones, and they were all fighting back with her. This time, everything would be different.
As the nine of the ten original Buster Call warships began enclosing, everyone prepared for the fight of their lives. Except the civilians of course; keeping to feigning innocence as to avoid being targeted. But, all the Straw Hats were going to fight. Even those who usually avoided a fight had taken up their arms; Nami her Clima-Tact and Sogeking/Usopp his Kabuto. Most of the Main Six was joining in as well including Spike. They would not allow their friends to fight this battle alone. So, they split into two groups. One would protect the ship – Nami, Robin, Spike, Rarity, and Fluttershy – and the others would take on the navy fighters. Among those that stayed on the ship was Fluttershy, who was going to take care of Chopper, who was still unable to move. She would try her hardest to protect the reindeer, but she had not the means to do so.
Then, Fluttershy heard a low and sad trumpeting. “Huh?” She looked over to see, to her surprise, an elephant sitting off to the side looking sad. And it was coming close to crying.
Also seeing it, Spike asked, “Where’d that elephant come from?”
“Oh, you poor thing.” Suddenly, Fluttershy left Chopper’s side, surprising the reindeer. She fluttered right over to the elephant and immediately began to comfort it.
“What’s the matter, sweetie?”
Funkfreed quite willingly started conversing with the Pegasus pony. The fact that they had been enemies was completely absent from the animal’s mind. It seem to almost weave a tale for the mare; one of confusion, joy, and sadness.
“Oh, that’s so sad.” Fluttershy said, feeling bad for the beast.
Confused, and maybe a bit jealous, Chopper tried to speak up. “Fl… Fluttershy?”
“I know you’ve only been alive for a short time, but there is so much more to living then…attacking others.” Fluttershy counseled, politely choosing her words. “And your owner doesn’t sound like a very nice pony…”
To the surprise of the entire group, Fluttershy was in conversation with an elephant. No one around could believe this. Even for her long-time friend of hers, Rarity felt that this was hardly the time for it. Still, they couldn’t concern themselves too much with it. The fighting would soon begin.
Let’s Go Back. Together!
The Miraculous Escape from the burning Island
Whilst Fluttershy conversed with the sword-turned-elephant, the others were readying for the oncoming assault. Most of them anyway; for Twilight Sparkle had her attention elsewhere. She looked down the bridge to see that the explosion earlier had not only destroyed a part of the bridge but also some of the building making a large hole into the inside. With such temptation, Twilight willingly followed through and teleported to the other side. Everyone positioned on the bridge was surprised to see the mare disappear.
“Twi!” called out Applejack worried.
“Wait.” Sanji said looking ahead. “There she is.”
After reappearing, now on the edge of the crumbling bridge, Twilight looked out and down at the large gape. She gasped as she saw both Luffy; looking both tired, injured, and fierce with steam coming off him and his skin sheening, and Lucci – still in his hybrid form – opposite each other and looking to be still fighting. Though she was glad that he was still fighting, she knew that her brother was reaching his limit. And observationally, Lucci looked to still have enough energy to finish his job.
‘What can I do?’ She thought seeing how her brother looked to be losing. She soon came up with one idea, and quickly implemented it. “Luffy!”
Her shout reached the stallion, who turned to look through the hole to see her. She then shouted, “Beat him!”
Rainbow Dash was the first to arrive. Hearing Twilight’s shout, she too cheered on the stallion. “Yeah! Kick his ass!”
Franky was next, followed immediately by the rest, and shouted as well. “We’re all here!”
“Don’t worry about us, Luffy!” Sogeking/Usopp shouted optimistically
“And we have Robin too!” Sanji added proudly.
“You’re the only one left!” Applejack stated loudly.
“Beat him up good!” Pinkie Pie shouted, surprisingly cheerful.
“So stay alive!” Together, they all shouted the same thing determinedly. “So we can leave together!”
Luffy didn’t say anything back to the group. He responded though with a happy and confident smile acknowledging what they had and were doing. He had been growing steadily exhausted, but in seeing his friends together his determination was renewed. So, as his technique began weakening, Luffy again activated his Second Gear technique. His fight wasn’t over.
But how long could he keep this up?
Back on the bridge, Zoro looked back and spoke up. “They’re here…”
Everyone turned to see two huge battleships lined up with the bridge between them. Standing on both sides, as announced by some high-ranking individual, was two hundred elite solders ready to fight. With a might roar, all of them jumped down from their ships starting their attack. Though Sanji had disappeared suddenly, every one of our heroes met any member of the Black Navy with strength and determination. However, there were dangers among these elite soldiers; some of them had Devil Fruit powers. One noteworthy power holder had the ability of the Rust-Rust Fruit, which he used to turn Zoro’s sword Yubashi into scrap. Nevertheless, Zoro still defeated him, but now he was down to two swords. The others had only minor inconveniences as they fought; nothing that couldn’t be overcome with a little ingenuity. Thusly, Rarity had her own tricks for winning.
“Hello, sailor boys.” Rarity said seductively. As she did, she posed alluring for the soldiers. And, as an added measure, even winked towards them. “Please go easy on little me…”
Of course, this appeal worked resoundingly well. All the nearby soldiers couldn’t help but be captivated by the unicorn’s charm. “S-Sure, Miss,” stated one of the enamored soldiers.
Rarity at first replied with a soft smile, which hid her other ill-intentions for them. As her horn glowed with her magic aura, she levitated her rapier. This confused the sailors, but it was too late for them. “Bedazzling Strike!” Then, several thrust strikes hit each stunned sailor. Once done, they all fell over defeated.
“Is that all you have for me?” Rarity asked rhetorically and smug.
For those sailors watching, they were a little stunned that such a beauty was so dangerous. Before they could do anything however, they soon felt the bridge shake. They looked pass the enchantress and saw now an elephant charging right at them. Helpless to avoid it, the beast charged through and knocking them aside. Watching this, Rarity was baffled.
“What in the name of Celestia…”
Luckily, someone answered. “Oh, um…” Fluttershy soon revealed herself atop the elephant.
“Fluttershy?!” Rarity gasped out surprised. “How…”
“He’s actually awfully sweet.” Fluttershy stated with a warm smile. “Mr. Funkfreed wants to come with us and live peacefully as an elephant.”
Nearby, overhearing this, Robin gave her opinion with amusement. “I’m sure Luffy wouldn’t mind have an elephant aboard…”
“Well, I mean… That is…” Baffled by these turn of events, Rarity had little to retort to her friend’s new pet. All she could really do, seeing how the elephant “Mr. Funkfreed” was helping them, was to accept. “Just…be safe dear.”
Fluttershy nodded. “I will.” She then turned back around, Chopper nearby, she secured her friend. Then, she spoke to her new friend, “Let’s go.”
“Charge!” cried out Chopper, determinedly.
The elephant gave a war cry-like trumpeting and then continued his stampede. Avoiding the Straw Hats, he climbed the stairs knocking more soldiers as it did. Once at the top, he continued his charge doing the same. The Straw Hats and Franky were surprised by this was Rarity had been, but in seeing that Fluttershy and Chopper were atop it they didn’t bother to worry about it. So, the battle continued.
As was Rarity and Fluttershy, the rest of their group were doing their parts. Twilight Sparkle’s spells flew out striking soldiers left and right; giving them their own inconveniences. Rainbow Dash’s superior flying skills left not just the ponies on the bridge lost but even the Pegasus on their side as well. Pinkie Pie’s surprise cannon left soldiers baffled then defeated, and her cartoonish antics even more so. Even without training, Applejack’s strength was more than a match for any of these elites, who were at most ranked captain. Spike, though only a baby dragon, his fire breathe scared and burned many unaware soldiers. Their group was doing much to lessen the numbers, but it was only exhausting them with each opponent defeated. Even worst, the warships of the Black Navy seemed only seconds away from blowing them up for good. If Luffy could only hurry…
“Luffy!”
After firing a transformation spell, turning a few soldiers into frogs, Twilight turned around hearing Sogeking/Usopp’s shout. Except, when she saw the yellow unicorn standing by the broken bridge, she saw that his mask was off. This surprised her as she knew that the stallion was only wearing such a weird disguise as to save his pride. She wanted to ask what the stallion was doing, but before she could she was attacked. This prompted her to counter quickly with her lightning spell, but she listened as Usopp shouted more.
“What the hell are you doing?! Get up!”
That had immediately got Twilight’s attention. Without a second thought, she quickly teleported herself over next to Usopp; and by chance, dodged a gang up attack. When she appeared next to her friend, she looked back at the gape she had seen only moments ago. To her shock, she saw that her brother was down, and he looked even bloodier than before. Worst, he was laying flatly on the floor and barely moving. It was a scene that horrified her.
“Luffy…”
The stallion himself though was indeed nearly done. He could barely see straight he was so exhausted, but he could hear Usopp. And it surprised him. “Usopp…” he said tiredly, “…you…came?”
“D-Don’t get the wrong idea!” Usopp shouted immediately, acting prideful, able to hear Luffy even from here. “I only came here to rescue Robin!”
“Luffy!” shouted Twilight this time. She understood that her brother was far too exhausted to think coherently – less now than usually – but she wanted to reach him.
“I didn’t come to see your face!” shouted Usopp still behaving prideful.
This selfish behavior soon made Twilight mad. “Stop it, Usopp!” She shouted, “This isn’t the time to act egocentric.”
Usopp, despite knowing what he was doing seemed proud, would not cease his act. Even if they were no longer crewmates, they were still friends. “Hey!” He shouted suddenly, pointing to Lucci. “You big cat! Fight me!”
“What?!” shouted Twilight shocked.
Of course hearing this, Lucci didn’t mind obliging the blustering stallion. His old target was hardly fit to continue fighting, and he still had a job to do. He had to recapture Robin and kill the rest. He began walking towards the bridge; about to go through with his mission.
“Stop!” shouted Luffy quickly. “Don’t touch them!”
Lucci stopped, surprisingly. “Fine.” He said before turning back to Luffy, and raising his clawed paw. “I’ll just finish you off first, and them later.”
Both unicorns gasped. “No!”
Unfortunately, Usopp’s attempt to distract and then invigorate had gone out the window. Their enemy had seen the far simpler solution and would enact it without a second thought. Usopp immediately tried again though; attempting to dissuade the hybrid or even distract him a little longer. Lucci was completely unaffected and continued his stride towards the downed pony. Usopp began to panic, and spouted more and more insults and challenges that fell on deaf ears. As for Twilight Sparkle, she too was panicking; she was going to lose another of her brothers again. What could she do? Her mind raced with jumbled thoughts and plans that she tried desperately to sort. But with little time before Lucci could, she only could act on one simple thought; protect Luffy.
“Why don’t you--” Usopp attempted to shout another provocation, a flash of purple caught his attention. He looked over next to him to find the purple unicorn gone. “Twilight?!”
As Lucci prepared to strike his defenseless opponent, he suddenly felt a stab into his shoulder. The pain was excoriating, but he withheld it as to see what had caused it. To his surprise, he found the purple unicorn from across the bridge in impaled into his shoulder. “You…!”
“Twilight!” shouted Usopp in both horror and shock. He had just seen the mare next to him only moments ago.
To protect her brother, Twilight had decided to apply momentum and force in a single strike. She first teleported herself over to the building, ignoring the earlier idea of keeping together. Appearing in as close to the ceiling as possible, she launched out straight down at her target and impaled his shoulder with her horn. Even if it weren’t sharpened, gravity plus force would allow it to break through the hybrid’s tough skin.
“Twi?” Luffy spoke confused, attempting to see her.
Lucci began growling angrily. He then attempted to strike at the unicorn with his claws, but she had teleported immediately and dodged it.
Twilight soon reappeared between Lucci and Luffy, posed to strike. As he horn glowed and sparkled with magically electricity, she shouted, “I will protect my brother!”
Luffy gasped, now able to see his sister. “Twilight!” He shouted desperately.
“Magic Lightning!”
The unicorn fired her lightning spell, but Lucci was prepared. “Soru.” He immediately vanished, dodging the attack. Then, he reappeared in front of the unicorn; surprising her greatly.
“Do you know what the best way to torture a unicorn is?”
Not wasting time, Twilight went for the attack. “Magic--”
Lucci answered for her, “You break their horn.” In a flash, the hybrid’s composite hoof-claw grabbed the unicorn’s horn, and snapped it in half.
Instantly, intense pain violated the entirety of Twilight Sparkle’s body. It was the most unimaginable pain any unicorn could ever feel; the breaking of their horn. While it was strong enough to endure most anything, this powerful hybrid had more than enough strength to exceed its limits. And now, Twilight was screamed the most horrified and pain-filled scream of her life. Nothing could compare especially not in her life up until now. So intense it was, she eventually blacked out and fainted.
Everyone had heard her scream. “Twilight!” They all shouted worried. But only Usopp and Luffy saw what had happened, and they were horrified.
And for the red stallion, that was more than enough to force himself to stand back up. After tossing the broken bit of unicorn horn, Lucci watched in amazement as ‘Straw Hat’ Luffy stood back up against him. Not only this but to also use his doping technique again. Even more so, he could feel the intense rage coming from the pony; like nothing her had ever felt before when fighting him. Luffy stood up as he prepared one last attack; a move filled with his rage, determination, and willpower. Near his own limit, Lucci watched almost helplessly as the small pony reeled both his front hooves back.
“Gum-Gum…”
“Iron Body!” Lucci desperately placed up one last effort to outdo his opponent. With his body hard as iron, maybe even stronger, he believed he would withstand the attack.
“…Jet…”
But, as Luffy attacked with blinding speed, Lucci felt the first punch.
Then, the second instantly after.
Two punches at once…
Six punches…
20 punches…
He soon lost count entirely. His defense had failed.
“Gatling!”
Too fast to see, stronger with each blow, unbelievably relentless; Luffy poured all his power into this last attack. Each punch like a sonic boom. He began screaming as he forces his exhausted body to continue its barrage upon Lucci. Each hit was important as his predecessor; there would be no going easy for this opponent. He wasn’t even sure what he was hitting half the time, but he would never let up against this opponent.
Soon though, Luffy stopped. His attack had pounded Lucci like meat even pushing him back into the wall behind him. The wall broke and cracked until it finally crumbled down with Lucci. Immediately, Luffy fell flatly onto the floor. His Second Gear technique’s effect wearing off as well. On the Bridge of Hesitation, all the fighters stopped and looked over at the bridge. The end of Luffy and Lucci’s fight had attracted everyone’s attention. Even those on their ships were paused to see the outcome. It was clear; as Hattori – Lucci’s pigeon – returned to perch on his unmoving owner, who the winner was.
“Let’s Go Back Together Robin!!! Everyone!!!” Shouting with the last of his energy, Luffy had proven his victory over his daunting opponent.
Robin and everyone heard this clearly. Instantly, they were all overjoyed to hear their captain and friend, and that he had won. Robin was even crying a little; feeling a sense of relief and overcoming joy.
Cipher Pol number 9 had been defeated.
“Luffy!” shouted Usopp in sheer amazement. “He won!”
The news spread fast among the Navy’s ranks. From boat to boat and to all those on the bridge. Usopp himself had witnessed all that happened, and shouted out their victory with pride. Even surprisingly, cheers from the dead to the Straw Hats came through. For you see, our invading forces who had been blast at the front gates had not perished. They had all survived the blast and, thanks to Paulie’s quick thinking and rope skills, the whole group – sleipnirs included – were safely hanging off the edge of the island. They all, from the Franky Family gang to the sleipnirs, voiced their joy for the pirates. This was relieving for our group of pirate heroes. Franky was especially happy to hear his men were safe. It invigorated him to fight even harder against the navy soldiers. Now, all they had to do was escape; except, there was a problem.
“Come on, Luffy!” shouted Usopp hurriedly. “Grab Twilight and stretch on over!”
“I…” Luffy spoke, but laid on his stomach unmoving. He looked entirely frustrated. “I…can’t move…”
This news shocked the group. Truly, Luffy’s last move had drained him over everything; he was over-exhausted. Even if Robin could move the pony herself, there wouldn’t be enough time to catch him. Worst, Twilight was over there as well and completely unconscious due to the pain, and no one else could teleport. Soon, things were becoming more troublesome as the warships attacked their escape ship. With Rarity and the civilians still on it.
“No! Rarity!” shouted Applejack in despair.
Luckily though, someone was watching out for those on the ship. Galloping up the stairs with all those mentioned before on his back, Sanji reappeared and hurriedly. “Don’t worry! I got them!”
Rarity was of course taken in by the rescue. With a giddy squeal, she hugged Sanji’s neck tightly. She proclaimed, “My shining knight in dapper clothing.”
This obviously struck a chord with Sanji. “Haha~! Of course, my dazzling princess~!”
“Sanji!” Spike spoke up. “Where have you been man?”
After setting the group down, Sanji explained rather vaguely, “I had to take care of some business.”
“And you had to take care of it now!?!” shouted Spike in outrage.
Unfortunately, they didn’t have time for this kind of small talk. The Black Navy did not stop at just the escort ship. They soon attacked the bridge on both ends. Everyone quickly ran away from the bombardment until they stopped on the last support building of the bridge. The Straw Hats and their allies were completely trapped this last support. The only think keeping the warships from finishing them off was that their own men were still attempting to capture-slash-recapture them. But still, the issue with Luffy and Twilight was present; and now, they were even farther away from them to help. The navy would soon be taking action on them soon. Despite everyone’s, even from the group on the island, pleases, it was impossible for Luffy to move or for Twilight to wake. The Navy will completely exterminate them with a barrage of cannon fire. It would seem that this was the end for them.
“Huh?” Except, Usopp heard something. Looking around, he wondered who was speaking. “Who is that?”
“What?” Franky asked slightly annoyed. “That’s my gang, you know that.”
“No, that’s not it.” Usopp said surely. “This is a voice I’ve been hearing a while now.”
And he wasn’t the only one. Each of the Straw Hats was now noticing a voice. They were not the only ones either; the Mane Six – er, Five until Twilight wakes up – and Spike could hear this voice as well. This of course included Luffy. They were all confused by what the voice was saying to them. It was same message to all of them. Only Usopp though could verify what it was saying as he was left alone by the Navy. The message that it told everyone was to “look down”. So, the unicorn did, and what he saw astonished him.
Thus, he shouted out to all his friends, “Everyone! Jump into the sea!”
“What?!” shouted the Straw Hats and allies.
“Robin!” Usopp shouted next immediately. “Can you push Luffy and Twilight into the sea?”
Though confused, she trusted her friend’s judgement and nodded. “Leave it to me.”
“Nami! Rainbow Dash!” Again, Usopp shouted out to his friend. “Can you guys carry either of them?”
“Easily.” Rainbow Dash said confidently, then punched one of the navy soldiers.
Nami nodded with the same determination. “You can count on me!”
Nearby, Zoro shouted out to the unicorn, “What the hell are you planning?!”
Frantic, Usopp grabbed the swordspony. Despite how dangerous this situation and foolhardy his plan, the stallion was shedding tears. Tears of joy and relief. And he told his friend, “There’s still one more shipmate!”
“He’s right!” Chopper soon shouted as he flew with Fluttershy. They hovering over the edge to see what Usopp had saw. And they did see, it made Chopper cry out in joy too.
“Come on, everyone!” Fluttershy called out joyfully. “To the sea!”
“Into the sea!” Every Straw Hat called out in joy.
Not even Franky and the civilians understood what these pirates were going on about. Even if they had their doubts, it would seem that jumping into the ocean was a far better escape then waiting for the Navy to blow them up with their cannons. So, everyone made a run for it. As she did so, Robin used her Hana-Hana powers to roll both Luffy and Twilight off their building, and just in time as well. The both fell off as the warships began bombing the building. Soon to follow, all the pirates and their allies jumped off the bridge towards the same direction as Luffy and Twilight. All the navy soldiers were awestruck at the recklessness of the pirates. None of them understood why they would do something so foolhardy. To die in the sea instead of being captured.
But they – the Straw Hats – knew though. They knew there was someone there to help them. And her voice called out to them, “Everyone, let’s go back, to the high seas of adventure!”
“Merry!” called out Luffy, overjoyed to see the sailing the vessel.
That sailing vessel, the Going Merry, was waiting for her crew just down below them. Her magnificent presence like a godsend to our heroes. Though still battered and falling apart, the little ship would always be there for her beloved crew. And they would sail again and escape. Like always.
“I came for you!”
As they said they would, Nami and Rainbow Dash caught Luffy and Twilight respectively as they fell. They both then flew the two over to the Merry while the rest of the group fell into the ocean. Fluttershy of course did not, and with Chopper and Funkfreed – now a sword for convenience of travel – they landed safely on the deck as well. Thanks to Kokoro, Robin was safely thrown aboard as well. Soon, everyone climbed aboard the Merry, all relieved to have their escape ship.
“Hey, Robin! Thanks--” Luffy tried to give his gratitude to his archaeologist, but he was stopped. One of Robin’s legs appeared and covered his mouth.
Robin did not want to hear any thanks from her savior. She only smiled at the red pony, showing her appreciation for all he has done for her. She then looked over at Twilight, who was still unconscious. She felt the same amount of admiration if not more knowing all the she had sacrificed for her. Of course, this was the same for all her crewmates and friends. She soon stood up and looked around all of them. “Everyone…” She spoke gaining their attention.
“Thank you.”
The crew and others smiled happily. As if voicing the opinions of the crew, Luffy stated cheerfully, “Don’t worry about it.”
Though some were still behaving a bit grumpily. “Save the pointless banter for after we escape.” Zoro stated meticulously.
“Boo!” The immediate reply from the group a series of boos, most coming from the immature or emotion group. That being most everyone accept Robin; who chuckled at the display.
Of course, Zoro did have a point; the group had to escape and now. Strangely though, as it was brought up, there was no one else aboard the caravel-class boat. At least, before them. Not a trace of anyone else who may have sailed their precious ship in the first place. It was a mystery, but one they would have to worry about later. For now, they had to escape.
“What are you fools doing? Fire at them!”
On the orders of Spandam, who lied to make said order from Admiral Aokiji, the Black Navy forces immediately attempted to fire upon the small vessel, but all their shots missed. Not because there aim was off, but because the Gates of Justice was closing causing strong and rough currents to reform within this area.
“What’s happening?” asked Applejack astonished. “What’s with these rough waters suddenly appearing?”
“Ah.” Sanji spoke up casually. “That was my idea.”
“Huh?!” replied much of the group.
Sanji, thinking ahead, had disappeared earlier in an attempt to look for a way to secure their escape. He luckily was able to find the gates’ control room and pulled the lever to close the gate. Thus, his foresight allowed for the perfect advantage for his group. These huge battleships were as maneuverable as a Minotaur in a small china shop. With Nami’s superb navigating skills, she was able to easily chart the perfect course for their escape using the newly formed currents as their guides. The others, mostly the original Straw Hat, defended the Going Merry in any way possible as they traveled between the large ships.
Witnessing the incompetence of this the strongest military action, Spandam grew increasingly frustrated. “Why can’t we take one single mare from some measly pirates?!”
Then, as karma would have it, several feminine legs appeared on Spandam. Immediately, the freaked out soldiers stepped away from the stallion in fear. All done by Nico Robin, the mare had a perfect line of sight to see the miserable pony as she escaped with her friends. Still, she had yet to finish off her revenge on the pony for causing them all so much strife. “Clutch.” With her words, her limbs obeyed and bent the unicorn backwards until he broke. Finally, Spandam was knocked out for good. And with task done, Robin soon returned to caring for her student.
“Alright, Franky!” shouted Nami affirmatively. “Do it!”
“Ye-ow! You got it!” The Minotaur said readily. He soon moved to the rear of the Merry and prepared his signature and powerful blast. Once his forelimbs had expanded with the maximum amount of air, he prepared to fire. “This’ll be hard on the ship, but…”
“Hang on everyone!” Nami warned to her crew as she prepared as well.
“Coup de Vent!” The powerful air blast, once fired, launched the Going Merry into the air. To all those watching from aboard the warships, it was a feat deemed unreal. A ship was flying through the air was impossible; and yet, they were all seeing it for the first time.
“That’s nothing!” shouted Usopp as he ready to fire for his huge slingshot. “I’ll have you all know that the Merry Go has flown 30 thousand feet!”
“Special Attack! Super Smoke Star!” Usopp launched his projectile out.
Immediately, a large trail of smoke zipped around threw the sky. It covered their escape and prevented accurate fire from the battleships, even more so along with the strong current thrashing them about. These nine battleships were completely helpless to do anything in stopping the pirates. This was a complete and utter embarrassment for the Black Navy. Meanwhile, the Going Merry landed safely out of the armada of battleships. As the Buster Call ships were currently in distress, for a number of reasons, they could hardly act to stop them. Unfortunately though, there was one mistake the pirate group had made.
“Wait,” Robin said as she looked back towards the Buster Call ships, “there’s only nine.”
“Huh?” asked Spike confused. “What does that mean?”
Grimly, Robin stated, “Along with one that had been destroyed by their own hooves, there were eleven battleships in total when they arrived.”
“What?” the whole crew said dumbly.
As if on cue, there came cannon fire suddenly. It fortunately missed the Going Merry, but it did attract everyone’s attention. Just as Robin had said, there was one more battleship to worry about. Having avoided the mess that the entire Buster Call ships were now in, the Honnōji Academy sailed at the Going Merry. The pirate group looked up at the huge ship worriedly as they saw faceless and young soldiers lined up obediently along the side of the ship. Above them, standing on the front cannons, were four individual creatures – Gamagori, Inumuta, Jakuzure, and Sanageyama – stand two to a side. All looking intimidating. Finally, at the head and stood above all on her own platform, was their leader Satsuki; looking the most intimidating of all.
“We’re not allowed to interfere with the Buster Call…” Satsuki spoke softly, though loud enough to be heard the pony she was addressing to. “But we can apprehend criminals if they escape from the authorities.”
As he relaxed in his chair, Kuzan responded coolly. “You are entitled to…”
Nodding, Satsuki returned her attention to the small band of pirates. Immediately, a bright light began shining behind her, as if magnifying her presence in a justly matter. It shined so brightly it blinded all not facing away from it; like our heroes. Then, Satsuki shouted out imperiously, “’Straw Hat’ Monkey D. Luffy…!”
Blinded, Usopp tried blocking the light with little luck. “Holy crap!” He shouted in astonishment.
“What is with that light?!” shouted Spike, trying to block the light as well.
“Guys~,” Luffy whined helplessly. As he could not move, he could not block the light.
Trying to peer up, Nami could only just barely see the ship. “Who are these guys?”
“Under the authority of the Navy by Fleet Admiral Sakazuki. I, Satsuki Kiryūin, student council president of Honnouji Academy as part of the Young Justice program, hereby place you and your group under arrest!”
SATSUKI KIRYUIN

KO awesome chapter, they made it out but now they'll have to deal with a new threat sooner than expected and hope Twilight get her horn fix up. Maybe the Elements of Harmony can fix that.
7818495 We'll see
Happy Holidays!
I see you've crossed over with "Kill la Kill."
You know, I can't wait to see Spandam's expression when/if he learns Twilight becomes a princess of Equestria.
7818786 I've left hints in a couple of chapters.
Now I want to see Satsuki get socked in the jaw! They've come too far! No snot nosed rich assed bitch is going to take them down! There's got to be one last move the Strawhats can pull!
7818855 Only the next chapter can tell, but it doesn't look good
FYI, I'm lying.
Holy crap I just now got the whole kill la kill's thing I knew the academy was familiar but it's been awhile
7818495 I'm worried about Twilight, damn that pigeon guy breaking her horn like that
7821561 Brutality
7821312
minor spoiler for what is coming up but the upcoming feels in the canon manga and anime
made me cry
7821759 Are we talking in relation to the story? Or current in manga?
7822719 relation to story I am way behind in the manga
7822771 ah, then good that I didn't spoil anything
And yes, very sad indeed
I just finished reading everything that you have posted thus far, and I'm hooked. I want to see where this story where go and see how different it will be compared to the original One Piece and My Little Pony. Nice work so far, and I look forward to the next chapter/update.

Thanks for reading!
7807335 I've just imagined some cute scenes where Chopper is teaching Fluttershy how to be a nurse and about medicine.
7838086 Cool
if you would like to tell me about them, just PM me
I just realized the opening theme is an excerpt from an English Fandub of Wake Up.
7864246 is that bad? It's actually really good
7864428
It's good. I'm just mad that it took me so long to realize that.
7903773 Well, it's only the third chapter
Not like I'm trying to be cliched, whatever OP X MLP cliches could be. I hope you'll enjoy the rest of the fic 
7905477 Aw, that's a cute pic

Twilight: "I'll never let anypony die again!!!"
11171201
You know, that would probably work if instead of Shining Armor it was Sabo (though, without knowing actual Haki yet, it be too soon)
11269182
Yeah, probably. But I decided to knock her out so…
