Chapter 6: Meeting Kaido

(Third Person POV) Year: 1504 Location: King's Ship

"Ah, my fucking head," Crow hissed in pain and grabbed the side of his skull.

"Crow!" he heard Uta yell before she slammed against him and held him tightly. "I'm so glad you're ok!" she happily exclaimed.

The winged wondered what she meant by that for a second but then remembered what had transpired, and he had a look of panic on his face.

He took a good look at where they were and paled. The two of them were in a cell, and if the interior of their location indicated anything, they were on a ship.

"I g-got my ass kicked, didn't I?"

Uta broke the embrace and gave him a sheepish nod. "Y-Yeah, but don't beat yourself up about it. By the time I could comprehend what happened, I was knocked out too. But I'm ok, though," she assured him quickly, seeing he was about to lose his shit when she mentioned she was harmed.

Crow sighed and held Uta. "That's good....he didn't, by chance, come down here and tell you where he was taking us?"

She shook her head. "I only woke an hour ago. So your guess is as good as mine."

"Fuck just our luck.." he rested his head on her lap, and she played with his hair.

Now, all they could do was hope for the best.

(Timeskip) Location: Wano

A week passed, and the young couple had been bored out of their minds and were on edge for obvious reasons. Although their imprisonment wasn't all bad, King went out of his way to ensure they were all fed and weren't harassed by the other crewmates of the ship. Still, being locked up like an animal wasn't ideal, but they begrudgingly got over it. To pass the time, the duo would take turns sleeping while one kept watch, come up with new ideas for songs, or fool around whenever they could.

The two were currently sleeping on the bed together, holding one another in each other's arms. Meanwhile, King was on the other side of the side cell and watched them sleep for a while, with an unreadable expression underneath his mask. After staring at them for an unknown time, he eventually decided to wake the young couple up.

"Oi, wake up," he flared his killing intent, which immediately woke them up.

"Ugh, what the fuck?" Crow said groggily as he and Uta slowly started getting up. He spotted King and glared at him. "Was that fucking necessary?"

"No, just felt like," King shrugged with a slightly amused look underneath his mask. "Besides, we've arrived at our destination."

Crow glared at the man. "Where are we?"

"You'll see," King opened the cell door. "Now stick close and follow me," he said before turning around and walking away.

They reluctantly nodded and followed the older Lunarian, with Uta clinging to Crow tightly. Once they were on the ship's deck and saw its flag, they paled as their fears were confirmed.

Pirates had captured them...

Thanks to Shanks, Uta knew who the big shots were in the pirate world, and she instantly recognized the Beast Pirates flag.

The Beast Pirates were known for their cruelty, savagery, survival of the fittest mentality, and, worse of all, their practice of slavery. While not as knowledgeable about Pirates as Uta, Crow knew this group was powerful and was the kind of people he didn't want to be associated with.

"Holy shit, that's one gnarly-looking ass castle," Crow commented when he took notice of the skull-shaped structure.

Uta soon followed in amazement, but it quickly ended when it suddenly hit her. "W-Wait, we're meeting Kaido, aren't we?" she asked, her voice filled with despair.

King nodded. "Indeed we are."

"Fuck..." she mutters under her breath, fear evident in her tone.

As the two made their way through the docks and castle, the pirates stared at Crow with eyes of disbelief and awe.

He kept on hearing them call him a Lunarian, and it didn't take him long to figure out that was the name of his race. However, the teen didn't understand why they were so surprised to see him as he didn't think he was anyone special.

(Timeship)

When they reached their destination, everyone had different thoughts when seeing the young couple.

'Ara ara, he's even more handsome in person~' Black Maria thought, looking at Crow with hungry eyes and thinking of all the dirty things she would do to him and he would do to her.

Crow sensed a dangerous pair of eyes on him and looked to see it was a beautiful blond Oni eye fucking the shit out of him.

When they locked eyes, the older of the two Oni winked at him, causing the teen to roll his eyes with amusement and inwardly chuckle.

Uta saw the older woman looking at her boyfriend hungrily and wasn't pleased. She hugged Crow's arm and glared at the older woman, who returned the glare.

Not being dense as a brick wall, Crow noticed the glaring match between the two and was amused by the sight as he understood why they were looking at her like that.

'The Lunarian, I get, but what the fuck is the girl doing here?' Who's Who thought, bewildered seeing the singer.

Who's Who wasn't the only one surprised to see Uta, but everyone figured there was a reason why King had her with them, so they patiently waited for an explanation.

'He's a lot smaller than expected," Sasaki thought. 'Wonder if he'll be a good drinking buddy.'

'OOOH MY, HE'S SOOOOOOO HOT!!!" Ulti gushed when she saw Crow.

Ulti had a crush on him the moment she saw him perform live on TV and was absolutely furious when she saw Uta kiss him. It wasn't fair that he was already taken!

Crow and Uta also noticed the look she was giving the younger Lunarian. One was amused, while the other was steaming in anger.

Page sighed, seeing his sister look at the Lunarian with love-struck eyes. 'I already feel bad for the fucker,' he thought, pitying the Lunarian.

However, he didn't feel too bad because if Ulti somehow got her hands on the guy, he'd finally get a break from his overbearing sister, as half of her attention would be on the winged teen.

Hell, he's half tempted to help Ulti get with the guy if it fucking means he could get more freedom. He might even be able to find a girlfriend without his sister interfering!

'Shit, another one? Wasn't King already enough?' Queen thought, cursing internally.

"Why the fuck are you guys so fucking huge?" Crow couldn't help but ask, surprising everyone.

Crow saw plenty of people on the taller side, but the size of some of these people was just ridiculous!

"Oi, watch your fucking tone around Kaido-sama!" yelled a man wearing a red-horned helmet.

Crow glared at the man and promptly flipped him the bird. "Eat a dick, asshole!" a tick mark formed on the Flying-Six member's head.

'Handsome and feisty. Me likely~' Black Maria thought with a seductive and dangerous grin.

"Enough," King said sharply to the teen with a glare, who rolled his eyes and grunted. He then looked at his superior and nodded.

Kaido looked at Crow, taking in his appearance. The boy was significantly shorter than King when he was an adolescent. Instead of having silver hair, he had locks that were as dark as the night sky with red highlights, his skin tone was a lighter shade of brown, and his wings had red tips.

Nonetheless, the boy looked strong, and that's all that mattered in the end to him. However, the Oni would be lying if he said he wasn't curious why the boy looked the way he did, as the typical Lunarian features are usually, if not always, the dominant trait.

His gaze then landed on Uta. "Why is she here?"

"She's pregnant with his child," King answered, shocking everyone.

'NO FAIR!!! FUCKING BITCH!!!! I WANTED TO HAVE HIS BABIES!!' Ulti screamed internally.

'Oh, this certainly got interesting~' Black Maria thought. 'I wonder if Kaido would be upset if I got knocked up by the boy~" she grinned.

Black Maria certainly wouldn't mind carrying the young Lunarian's child. The only problem with that is the size difference between them. Fortunately for her, that was only a minor inconvenience for the beautiful Oni.

'Why do I feel like I should worry for my sanity?' Crow thought worriedly.

'Fuck...' Queen really didn't want to deal with even more Lunarians.

Kaido grinned. "That so?" he looked at the teens with a sinister glint in his eyes. "Looks like he's already getting started with my plans," he said with a chuckle, confusing everyone but King.

Crow narrowed his eyes. "What are you talking about?" he asked, growling, knowing whatever the Oni had in mind wasn't good.

"To keep it short, I require more promising talents."

"You want us to join?" Crow figured out what Kaido meant quickly and narrowed his eyes.

"Not only that, but I need you to breed with as many women as possible to create a powerful army," he stated bluntly, causing several reactions.

The female Beast pirate members were ecstatic, the men, except for King, were envious of Crow, and the young couple were understandably furious.

"Like hell, he will!" Uta yelled and clutched onto Crow possessively. Crow was hers and hers alone!

"Why the fuck would I do that?!" Crow asked incredulously and angrily.

"Because if you don't, not only will I have you tortured until you either submit or die," Kaido threatened with narrowed and rage-filled eyes. "Not only that, after your lover gives birth, she'll be nothing a hole for my men to use for their own pleasure and sick desires until she either dies from the sexual diseases some of my men undoubtedly have or has outlived her value to which she will be disposed of. And your son or daughter will be used to breed more Lunarians," he finished, shocking everyone in the room.

Crow and Uta went pale at his statement. Both knew they couldn't fight their way out or refuse to join the Beast Pirates. Neither wanted that fate for themselves or their children, but they had no choice. The young couple looked at each other with sad gazes and nodded.

Crow looked at Kaido with a glare. "Fine, we'll fucking join. However, I get to choose who I fuck, and I don't want my kids being used as breeding factories...only I shall shoulder that burden...If you agree to those terms, I swear I'll behave and do whatever you ask without hesitation."

Kaido hummed. "So if I told you to burn entire civilizations to ash, you'd do it?"

"Yes, or I would die trying," Crow said truthfully and without hesitation.

While Crow doesn't like harming innocents whatsoever, he'd kill anyone, including other children, and sacrifice his principles if that meant keeping his family safe. Family meant everything to him, and he would be damned if he was going to let anyone harm them.

Uta looked at her boyfriend with sadness and anger in her eyes. The singer was heartbroken that this burden was forced on his shoulders and was enraged that she couldn't do anything to help him. Uta felt so worthless and inadequate. What did she do to deserve such a young man who would go to such lengths for her? She didn't deserve him...

Kaido's scowl formed into a wicked grin. "...These terms are agreeable. Welcome to the Beast Pirates."

End.
