Chapter 19: Smoker

Under the crowd's doubtful eyes, a face slowly appeared on the mirror the Pirate had just taken out.

"Hey, Harry! How are you doing? Are you out of that house?" Sirius said while seeing some clouds in Harry's background.

"Oh, Sirius, how can that thing even work with such a distance between us?" Harry asked Sirius with some doubt in his voice.

"What do you mean distance? Where are you?" He also asked with some doubt, slowly realizing that there were some weird people some distance away from Harry with weapons aimed at Harry.

"Is that some kind of communicator?" muttered Smoker, surprised. He never saw something like a mirror being able to communicate with other people on the sea, and he already saw many things, considering he was trained at the Marine Headquarters.

"Well, Sirius, the time you called was a bit unsuitable." Before Harry could continue, there were sudden shots from the guns behind Harry, scaring Sirius to death.

At that moment, Harry was distracted by something else. Some of the Marines thought it was their chance, so they continued shooting for a few seconds before they saw how futile the situation really was for them.

Sirius could do nothing but look as some strange-looking people shot at his Godson, and the bullets that should normally hit his Godson just vanished into thin air.

"Harry! Why are you getting shot!? What did you do?" Sirius asked, a bit stunned by the whole situation he could see on the other side of the screen. 

He actually screamed through the whole house and alarmed some of the Weasleys who, for some reason, were currently living in his house.

"That's a good question. I asked myself, and it seems like I looted and destroyed many islands! Even though I had never even been on one of these islands, I still did it! Ain't I strong and amazing?" Said Harry with a fake proud look on his face.

Smoker just looked on while the two people in front of him were talking with each other. 

He tried to attack, but every single time he tried, there was some electricity in the air, bouncing him away from the two of them.

Even though many say there are no bad Devil Fruits, only Bad Users is in some way right. 

The difference is that the starting point of the Devil Fruits is very different. 

The Thunder Fruit has a very high start point, while his Smoke Fruit didn't. It didn't help that he was too lazy to train.

Before Harry and Sirius could talk further, a running Marine Soldier interrupted Harry's talk with his godfather.

"Commodore Smoker! Report! The Straw Hat captain makes trouble at the Execution Platform!" A Marine that just ran here said out loudly.

"Well, that is my keyword. We will talk later, Sirius. Bye." said Harry, stopping the call to the dismay of Sirius.

On Sirius's side, the call had just stopped, and right after that, someone threw open the door, looking at Sirius with some suspicion.

"What are you screaming here about?! You are not contacting Harry, do you? Dumbledore said we shouldn't, so don't do anything stupid!" The red-haired woman screamed with her high-pitched annoying, bringing back Sirius into a depressive mood once again. 

He suspected the Weasleys were only sleeping here so that these idiots could watch him so he wouldn't contact Harry. 

Every other reason makes no sense since they have their own house, and the Death Eaters would never care about that Family, so the chance for them to get attacked is pretty low.

"Of course not. How could I even contact Harry?" Answered Sirius, annoyed about the women.

"You better not! I watch over you, mister!" She screeched back while again leaving to the kitchen where she probably also sleeps so often she is in there.

"So annoying," Sirius said, thinking back to Harry, who he had just seen being shot. 

'He can be happy that he doesn't need to be here for the moment. Even being shot should be more fun than here,' Sirius thought to himself with a bitter smile.

...…..

Back to Harry, you could see him running while being chased by the Marine.

Luffy just called out to evacuate, and Harry didn't really care, so he just took off after his crew.

Harry and Nami approached the platform when a weird-looking clown was just about to execute Luffy. Color them surprised when a sudden lightning bolt hit the person who wanted to execute Luffy.

Instantly after the almost execution, Luffy called for the evacuation to the ship. 

Through some weird kind of luck, there were even all of the Straw Hats in the plaza under the execution platform, so they didn't have to gather members from the town.

Seeing the Pirates all running away, Smoker was angry, but he knew he didn't have a chance to win against that Thunder Logia fruit user. 

Even if he didn't have a chance, he still had to fight!

'For the Marine and for Idial!'

He thought to himself while transforming himself into smoke, rushing to Harry, who he knew wasn't a threat to him since he didn't have Armament Haki. 

How wrong he was. 

Maybe Harry didn't have some fancy Armament Haki for the moment, but he still had a strong fruit that could influence even Logia to some extent.

Only seconds after coming near Harry and with Smoker's strength being too weak, Harry's crushed fruit worked wonders, and Smoker fell to the ground, now divided into many small Smokers who were yelling about something.

Not knowing what happened, Smoker grew panicked and tried to attack further, but against all odds, he couldn't continue to fight. 

In his current form, he is sure even an ordinary soldier could crush him instantly.

"Don't worry, you will turn back in one hour," shouted Harry to the now many Smokers.

After running for some minutes, the Straw Hat Crew instantly entered the harbor and bordered their ship. 

It was a surprise that the Marines didn't actually capture their ship.

After only some minutes, they were now already sailing into the distance.

The new goal: The Grandline.

"Say Nami, did you also feel that person?" asked Harry casually.

"Yes. Very strong!" answered Nami with some trepidation, but before she could say anything more, she stopped. 

She suddenly calmed down with a shocked look on her beautiful face.

Looking at Luffy and then back to the town, she couldn't believe it.

Her unreliable captain actually has such a strong background.

"Did you hear something, Nami?" asked Harry, and under the eyes of the questioning crew members who secretly listened to their conversation, she said.

"Yes. Seems like Luffy's father just saved him from being executed. That Lightning Bolt was from him." said Nami, to the surprise of everyone.

Even Luffy was surprised.

"I have a father?" Luffy asked, dumbfounded, what brought all the other members of the crew to facepalm.
