Disagreement

Three days after the execution of Gold D. Roger, the environment was calm, but an electric atmosphere enveloped a small group.

Satoru observed his recent creations.

"You are not mere dolls shaped by me," he explained, "You have souls, emotions... and most importantly: free will. You are unique beings, even though derived from my own soul and the concepts I chose."

Cammy, with her piercing gaze, questioned: "What do you expect from us?"

"Follow your own desires, of course. But I hope you join me on an adventure like no other. Together, we can explore and conquer this world." Satoru smiled, a mix of sarcasm and confidence.

"You said you're a pirate, and also said the word 'conquer'. Why should we follow a pirate? I feel... feel that pirates bring chaos and pain," Chun-li immediately countered, driven by a strong sense of justice.

Her words echoed in the clearing, and for a moment, a tense silence prevailed.

"Pirates are like any group: there are good and bad ones. I'm not one of those who cause suffering without reason. Moreover, the navy and the world government have their own shadows too. I suggest you find out the truth for yourself." He realized convincing her personally would be challenging.

Chun-li, her cheeks flushed with anger and confusion, replied: "Maybe I will!" And with an agile move, she turned to leave.

He sighed, feeling a sharp headache from Chun-li's sudden decision, raising his hand in a conciliatory gesture. "If you need help or have questions, you can seek me out."

Cammy and Crimson Viper exchanged glances, uncertain.

"And us? What awaits us?" Crimson Viper approached him, her gaze intense and curious.

Satoru, blinking with a mysterious smile, answered: "Adventure, power, and perhaps... a new purpose."

...

Cammy sighed, and looked determined.

"You are my leader. Wherever you go, I will follow," Cammy nodded, with her military posture and determined look.

Crimson Viper, with her sharp eyes, stepped forward, casting a seductive look at Satoru. "I'm with you," she whispered, causing Mai to shoot a jealous glance in her direction.

Crimson Viper's attraction to Satoru was palpable, prompting Mai Shiranui to step forward, placing herself between them with a jealous expression.

Satoru, surrounded by these powerful and determined women, felt a wave of conflicting emotions.

I'm trying to stay true to the original personalities and behaviors of the characters. Even though they don't have memories of their original selves, they intuitively maintain the same behaviors and values inherently. For this reason, knowing her strong sense of justice, I decided to temporarily distance Chun-li.

I know this chapter is shorter than usual, but I've published several chapters today, and I don't think I'll publish another one today since I have my job and wish to start a new project, a real book. I began writing fanfiction with the intention of mustering the courage to write an original book. Wish me luck. Of course, I don't plan on stopping with the fanfic, but I want to try making a living as a writer, so I need to write an original book and stop procrastinating, haha.

Thank you to everyone who read this. There will be a new chapter tomorrow. Until then.
