'We want to go with Garp to visit the food island,' I said.
"Water 7?" Sakazuki asked.
"Why would you want to go there?" Sengoku asked.
We nodded and I spoke again, 'Who wouldnt feed three cute kitties?'
"You're too big to be kitties," Sengoku pointed out.
We were struck with realization until Grey squinted his eyes, 'We can shrink... Right?'
I nodded, 'Of course! Let's do it!'
"You can become little again?" Sengoku pinched the bridge of his nose.
Sakazuki growled, "Why didnt you stay little?!"
We purred in laughter, Ghost asked, 'Can we go?!'
"Only if you start being nice to Garp," Sengoku said, "I'm tired of hearing him complain about you three bullying him."
We nodded and said together, 'We promise!'
"And," Sakazuki growled.
'And we will behave,' we said.
"You're not little," Sengoku pointed out.
'Of course not. We are still here. We can disguise once we get there,' I hummed happily.
'We wont forget,' Ghost said.
'I'll make sure everything goes well,' Grey said.
"Right, the other marines would be suspicious if you suddenly became smaller," Sakazuki frowned.

"Do I have to take them? They hate me...," Garp whined as he watched us board the ship.
I jumped at him, making him flinch, before softly headbutting his leg toward the ship, meowww.
"He seems friendly," Sengoku pointed out.
"Because he gets to bully me while hes away...," Garp grumbled.
I sat down and grumbled, 'Let's go old fart. I'll give you some of my special booze if you hurry the fuck up.'
Garp pointed at me, "See, hes probably making fun of me!"
I sighed and stood on my back legs, my front paws on his shoulders as I licked the end of his nose and stared into his eyes, 'You will take me on vacation or I'll forever steal your snacks, my husbands will steal your snacks, and my kids will as well.'
Garp sighed, "You make a good argument... Hunt for your own food while we're away."
I nodded and licked his face before jumping back onto the ship, 'We planned to taste some nice sea kings anyways.'
--
Sitting on a rail, our tails in the water, we chatted to ourselves. 'Get anything yet?' Grey asked
'No. How about you?' Ghost asked.
'Nope. What about you?' Grey said.
'Nah... something is coming though,' I said.
We turned and looked over the railing. Seeing nothing, Ghost put a paw and the water and flailed it while making crying noises. He jumped back as a giant dog like sea king jumped at him. Grey took its head off, I collected the blood, and Ghost skinned it. We made quick work of it and began chewing the bones up as well.
The marines on board avoided us mostly. We did pick on Garp but it wasnt anything much, just pinning him and cleaning his face after he eats or before he bathes or when he falls asleep standing up. I did still share booze with him, as an offering of friendliness.
When we got to Water 7, Garp tried to sternly tell us, "Dont cause trouble or Akainu will be in trouble."
We used our tails to salute him, jumped off the ship a mile from the dock and out swam the ship to the shore. When we got to a good place, we shrank and Grey smirked, 'We're totally pirates on this island right?'
'Yes!' Ghost and I declared before running to every food stall we found. We stole a single small piece from each and every stall and shop before finding a shopping Sanji. We froze up and I smirked, 'Follow that chef!'
Grey was bold enough to jump onto his shoulder. Ghost was hesitant and shrunk himself to a kitten size. I grabbed him and jumped onto Sanji's other shoulder, 'We demand food for our starving bellies. The little one will starve to death soon.'
Thought I said it mentally to only us felines, Ghost understood what I was doing and forced his stomach to growl before crying quietly. Grey made a worried face and meowed at me. I made a pitiful meow and met eyes with Sanji.
Sanji sighed, "I'll give you a little food but that's all. You cant come with us."
Grey licked Sanji's cheek after hearing that. Sanji slowly reached up and petted Grey before slowly reaching toward Ghost and I, "This little one might need milk. Do you want me to feed it?"
Ghost struggled to get away from the hand, so I put a paw up and stopped Sanji's hand. Ghost clung to my back, so I meowed quietly, 'He is scared of humans. Please understand.'
"No good with humans, huh? No worries, I wont push it. But if you come back with me, the girls might grab you," Sanji said.
I licked his cheek, 'They wont be able to.'
Seemingly knowing what I meant, he brought us to the little house used to recuperate the straw hats. Nami tried to grab Grey so we jumped onto the roof while Sanji explained. Chopper misunderstood and changed into a normal looking reindeer, coming toward us after hoping on the roof.
Ghost cried loudly when Chopper got too close. My instincts kicked in and I became my 1.8 meter size and covered both Grey and Ghost while staring down Chopper, 'We ask for food so my family doesnt starve. I ate the size size fruit so I can change sizes. If you wish to touch, leave Ghost alone. Grey and I will take turns.'
Chopper was shocked at first but repeated what I said to the group. Robin asked, "Did something happen to the little one?"
'A group of humans and their pets tortured him,' I told Chopper, 'Ghost ate a weird fruit and now can become intangible. Grey ate the heal fruit so his spit heals things. That's how we saved Ghost.'
"I see. What's your name?" Chopper asked and turned back to normal.
Grey poked his head out, then his front paws and climbed out from under me, 'Satan! I cant breath! Get up!'
I lifted my body a bit and Ghost laughed, 'Grey cant go through you! Hahaha! Serves you right for being a meanie!'
"Satan? Why that?" Chopped asked scared.
Grey put on a show, standing on his hind legs, 'Bwahaha! This little kitten cant survive this next strike!'
Grey stood on all four paws and hissed, 'HOW DARE YOU TOUCH WHATS MINE! DEATH TO YOU ALL!.... And then he killed all of them. Some lady saw and ran off screaming he was Satan so we went with it.'
Chopper was wide eyed, "How many did you have to fight?!"
'There were like 20 guys right?' Grey asked.
Ghost shook his head, 'No, Satan underplayed it to you. There were about 100 people not including the captain or that guy that Satan marked.'
'109, all but ones alive. If you ever find someone with massive scars on his face from left temple to bottom right jaw, it was me,' I said.
Chopper seemed horrified, "We met that guy!"
The crew yelled, asking for what we said. Chopper hurriedly explained before Robin frowned coldly, "Aokiji wouldn't do that."
'Hes alive because he tried to steal from us but he was there when it happened,' I said angrily before shrinking, 'We will pay back what we owe you.'
I took Ghost by the scruff of his neck and jumped off the roof. Grey and Chopper followed us before we heard Luffy wake up and declare a party... Sanji gave us a few small pieces of fish and asked us to wait till later for a proper meal. We agreed and thanked him before Grey jumped at Nami, 'Satan, I'll take first. 'It' is coming.'
I nodded, jumped onto a bed with Ghost and started cleaning him, 'You know 'it' wont recognize us, right?'
"What is 'it'?" Chopper asked.
'5,' I said.
'4,' Ghost said.
'3,' Grey said.
'2,' I sighed.
'1,' Ghost groaned.
'Now,' Grey sighed as a wall was busted down.
"LUFFY!" Garp yelled.
