Arabasta

The ship sailed towards Arabasta and Lami leaned against the railings, gazing out at the ocean in front of her.

She could see the sandy island in the distance and a smile spread across her face. It had been a while since she had landed on a normal island.

Lami looked back to her crewmates who were busy preparing the ship for docking. " Someone is watching us," she muttered, her eyes scanning the horizon.

The girls turned their attention toward the island, trying to spot any possible enemies. But there was nothing out of the ordinary.

Lami could sense a group of people waiting for them, she felt a rush of excitement. She knew that it was going to be an adventure.

Just then, a group of bounty hunters appeared onshore, wielding weapons and shouting out threats toward Lami and her crew.

*...* Lami didn't even flinch. " Are these extras serious? Bring the ship closer to shore, we'll take care of them."

Alexia maneuvered the ship closer to shore as Lami has ordered, the other girls also prepared themselves for battle. Lami smirked feeling the thrill of battle.

As soon as the ship docked, the bounty hunters charged at them with full force. However, even with their superior numbers, they were no match for Lami and her crew.

" Seriously is that all you got?" Alexia taunted as she landed a final blow on the last of their opponents. " Well that was disappointing, I expected better from Crocodile's goons."

Lami chuckled as she heard Alexia's words and stepped forward. " Anyone who's still alive can go back and tell Crocodile to come to face us himself."

Robin stepped forward, " Lami, I think it's a bad idea to fight against Crocodile in this part of the island as it is full of sand traps trailing with quicksand."

Lami waved off Robin's warning and continued to move forward, her eyes burning with determination.

However, before the crew could take another step forward the sand beneath them suddenly grew spikes made out of bones.

The girls were on high alert as they dodged the sudden attack. Lami's voice rang out, " Be on alert we're surrounded."

They quickly went into battle formation, ready to defend themselves against the mysterious assailants. ' Mhm, to think I would meet that goon here, ' Lami thought to herself as she readied her stance.

A figure suddenly appeared out of nowhere with a sinister smile. " Well if it isn't Princess Alexia and you wretched witch who took everything away from me, I'm gonna enjoy breaking you."

' Ah not this guy again,' thought the girls when their gaze landed upon Prince Endo, one of their past enemies.

< Eternal Fangs>

Endo shouted as he sent an attack toward Lami and her crew, Lami quickly froze the area around her resulting in the attack being ineffective.

" Ho, I see you have gotten a little stronger since we last met, little Prince," taunted Lami as she sent a flying slash toward Endo who blocked with his bone shields and smirked.

Endo launched another underground attack that sent the girls flying in different directions, but they quickly recovered and stood up.

Lami looked back at her crewmates to check if they were alright after Endo's sneak attack. " Everybody okay?" she asked with concern.

Alexia dusted her clothes, " Yeah I think everyone is fine, but I didn't expect to see that annoying idiot."

*growl* *roar* Alexia heard the sound of someone approaching from behind and quickly turned around to face the incoming attack.

The attack was too fast to dodge so she blocked it with her Haki-coated arms, but the impact sent her crashing to a nearby wall.

Alexia dusted herself as she narrowed her eyes as she saw who the attacker was. " Little wolf, I should have known it was you," she said with a hint of annoyance in her voice.

Wolf growled, " I see you gotten a little stronger but you have no chance of beating me in this form." With that Wolf transformed into his hybrid state and charged toward Alexia.

' What's up with his appearance was it always like this?' Alexia wondered as she prepared to face off against Wolf who possessed a new transformation.

Olivia and Robin were both sent in the same direction during Endo's attack and landed near each other. Olivia sat up, " I hate that guy, he is always getting on my nerves."

Robin chuckled, " I see so you guys are old friends then." Olivia rolled her eyes at Robin, " Haha very funny, now I wonder if that Arrow guy is here too."

" Sorry to disappoint you but Arrow isn't here right now that means I'll be your opponent for today," said a voice that caused Robin and Olivia to turn back. " The boss also didn't expect you to betray us Miss All Sunday."

Robin saw Mr. 1 approaching so she stood up and crossed her arms, " Well, I was never really a loyal member of your crew."

" Oh really that breaks my heart, I thought we were like sisters," spoke a feminine voice as Mr. 1's assistant Miss Doublefinger appeared beside him with a smirk on her face.

Robin couldn't help but roll her eyes from Miss Doublefinger's statement and replied, " Handly the case." Olivia had gotten up and stood next to Robin ready to face the enemies.

Reiju and Amelia were both sent in the same direction during the attack. Amelia quickly checked on Reiju is she was okay after that attack.

" I'm a cyborg it's hard to cause real damage," replied Reiju with a smile. " Oh yeah I forgot about that but I'm glad you're safe either way," Amelia replied with relief in her voice.

With that, they stood up and prepared for an incoming attack as they sensed the enemies approaching.

" Yoh cloud girl, you better be ready for round two," spoke one of the men who was big and bulky while carrying a shield and a large axe that he used for combat.

Amelia looked at the man in confusion as she tried to recall his name, " Oh it's you, ahem what was your name again?" she asked sarcastically.

The man scoffed, "It's Block, remember it well because this time I will crush you." " Don't you mean that we'll crush them?" interrupted a voice as a man with the number 3 shaped on his hair stepped forward.

Amelia and Reiju stood firm as they faced their opponents, fully confident in their ability to take them down.

" Hoi Mr. 3 remember this well the pink hair is mine," exclaimed Block as he charged his axe toward Amelia who dodged with ease and countered with a kick.

The kick was blocked by Block's shield and sent Amelia back while he swung his axe again but Reiju intercepted with a swift kick that caused him to stumble back.

" Amelia, what was that about? Why didn't you dodge in time?" asked Reiju confused as to why Amelia had let Block hit her.

" *huff* *huff* I underestimated him, it seems his weapons are made of sea prism stone," replied Amelia while catching her breath.

Reiju nodded in understanding, " Ah, I see you have to be more careful then."

" Hoi, Mr. 3, why aren't you lending me a hand? I told you these girls are powerful," spoke Block as he regained his footing.

Mr 3 looked confused for a moment before he replied, " You said you will handle the pink hair, so I didn't know which to attack as they both have pink hair."

Reiju couldn't help but chuckle at Mr. 3's response, "Well, that makes complete sense," she said sarcastically.

Mr. 3 fumed when he saw that Reiju was mocking him, " You think it's funny," he replied as he launched a barrage of wax attacks at Reiju.

Reiju was able to dodge the attacks with her superior speed and agility, " If Lami saw you spraying all this white stuff around her maidens she would definitely kill you," taunted Reiju as she prepared to strike back.

Amelia chuckled at Reiju's comment, " Seriously Reiju, you can be mean sometimes?" Reiju smiled back, " Only if my opponents deserve it."

Back on the ship, Carina, Bonnie and the other girls were given the task of guard duty. They took it seriously, knowing how important it was to keep the ship safe and the crew out of harm's way.

As they stood on their post, Bonnie heard movement coming from beneath the sand. She was confused as to who was able to move underneath the sand and quickly alerted Carina.

" Carina, we have someone under the sand! Get ready for an ambush!" shouted Bonnie as she took a fighting stance.

*bang* *swish* The girls heard something being hit and saw a baseball flying toward them at high speed. Without wasting any time, Bonnie deflected the baseball with her staff only for the baseball to explode on impact.

In a flash, Carina moved Bonnie out of the explosion using her Devil Fruit powers. Bonnie was grateful for Carina's quick thinking and movements as they moved away from the ship and prepared to fight the attackers.

" It seems we're not dealing with ordinary fighters. We have to be careful," warned Carina as she scanned the area for any signs of the enemy.

As the girls were standing there, ready to defend themselves and the ship, they saw a woman emerging from beneath the sand.

The woman looked like a humanoid mole and she wasn't the only one who emerged from the sand. A big fat man followed her, wielding a giant baseball bat.

" It seems you young girls are not as weak as you look," spoke the mole lady with a sinister chuckle. " But we'll make quick work of you just like the others who got in our way, let's go Mr 4."

The girls braced themselves, ready to defend the ship and their crewmates on it. " This is a nice opportunity for us to improve our combat skills," said Carina confidently.

Bonnie nodded in agreement and smirked, " Yeah, I was getting tired of being tortured by Lami and Alexia during training."
