Going Upstream! Into the Grandline!

Kent was a bit taken back from his dream, after slowly making out Reverse Mountain in the dark night he realised. It's time. They were about to cross the redline and go into the depths of the Grandline. He heard tales that its difficult travelling there from Soe... Some weak pirates can't even cross the Reverse Mountain. But Kent didn't fear the giant mountain. He was confident. They WILL get to the Grandline. The ship slowly approached Reverse Mountain. After finally getting to the upstream river. Julia took charge, commanding everyone so that the ship may cross the mountain. The crew had its issues, almost crashing once or twice. Finally, after making it to the top. Every thing seemed fine... Then when they began descending everyone started panicking.

"Hold on, everyone! This'll be rough!" - Julia

Nowan stabbed his sword in between floorboards and held onto it. It wasn't the smartest choice as it slipped out and Nowan began falling back, switfly Kent was able to make the catch and save Nowan from falling off. Kent managed to grab ahold of a ledge with his tusks which he made out of his mouth. It was tough to hold on but Kaitlyn managed to stay safe as she was in the lower deck where the rooms and kitchen is. Ford stuck to one of the walls, and Julia held onto the steering wheel which began cracking but managed to stay in place until they finally made it. The crew got together and cheered on the main deck. On the dark seas they couldn't see too much. Then, out of the dark. A light appeared. A marine ship was awaiting them. On it was a single man, to Kent he was familliar. To the others he was a nobody.

"...Wahahaha! So we meet again, Noak." - Captain Pork

"...You-" - Kent

"Yes, yes I was the one there blah blah blah... Enough chitchat! I'ma need to take you in" - Pork jumped atop the crew's ship. Everyone was a bit taken back.

"I heard you caused a scene in Loguetown..." - Pork jumped at Kent and tried to knock him out in one go with his iron knuckles. Kent dodges but his fist leaves a hole in the floor.

"Hey, jackass! Leave the ship alone!" - Kent

Pork didn't listen as he pulled his fist out and went in for an uppercut this time. Kent was a bit unfocused because of the damage to the ship, and he couldn't dodge because of it. He got knocked up and he spat out blood, but this wasn't it. Pork didn't stop there with his other fist he punched at Kent's stomach. His iron knuckle makes Kent spit more blood out, seemingly he's barely concious. The other surrond Pork but Kent signales to not attack.

"...He's...too strong for you guys..." - Kent stumbles back onto his feet. He switches to his mammoth form still dazzed a bit.

"Now, ain't you a responsible Captain." - Pork jumped up and aimed for the mammoths spine. Kent tries to catch him with his trunk but as if he missed, his trunk goes right to him. Leaving nothing but sand in his grasp.

"Wahahaha! You dumbass!" - Pork lauged out.

His knuckle connects with Kent's spine. Kent cries out in pain... Eventually he falls silent, he lies there uncouncious.

"...I'll play nice this time... All of you leave piracy, and there's that. But Kent, I'll have to take him in no matter what." - Pork says as he grabs Kent under his shoulder. He jumps back onto his boat.

Nowan tries to pursuit but Kaitlyn stops him.

Slowly the ship begins drifting away, further and further...

" Let me go Kaitlyn!" - Nowan

"Didn't you see, Nowa? If he can't defeat him. Neither can we!" - Kaitlyn

"Then, what do you suggest?!?! We leave Kent behind?!?!" - Nowan

"No- I-... I have a plan..." - Kaitlyn

"You do?" - Everyone looks up with anticipation, Nowan still angry.

"We'll try and pursue the ship from afar... Seeing the man was alone I doubt he'll be paying attention... We will break Kent out of the marine base he will be in... Thats the only way..." - Kaitlyn

"...Then let's go, the ship is already out of sight, we can only follow the direction where it went in." - Julia jumped up and began steering the ship to the direction where Pork went. The crew plans to break Kent out of jail.

Meanwhile...

Kent is roughed up and has a sea-stone hand cuff on. He is also tied to the mast.

"Wahaha... The second Noak I'll be taking in... Because of your bounty you won't end up like your uncle though... Well- if the government didn't see him as a treat... He wouldn't have either. But thats all in the past... Have some fresh air... This will be your last for a while..." - Pork

"...That's what you think." - Kent spits blood onto Pork.

"Ew- you stupid bastard!" - Pork punches Kent, knocking him out again. The ship is slowly approaching Marine base 6. Where they keep pirates until transport... It isn't too high security...but Pork will stay until the transportation of Kent... After a while Pork's ship finally makes it. They take Kent to a cell full of other pirates. Out of one of the dark corners... Kent hears a familliar laugh.

"Jol! Jol! Jol!" - Robert

Jol has been in marine base 6, due to escaping prison 3 times... The marines are unsure on where he should be transported.

"Mr.Nobody?!?" - Robert

"...You!" - Kent tries headbutting Jol Robert who crawls away

"H-Hey! No need to get feisty! We're in the same boat!....Base! Whatever-" - Robert

While this was happening. Nowan and the crew were scouting the marine base from afar. They decided the can't get too close now. They began planning... After deciding on what to do. Nowan, and Ford got into barrels whilst Julia got onto the dinghy... The barrels were put onto the dinghy as well and Julia began rowing towards the base. They thought since Julia is the newest recruit, she would be the least recognisable. As she got close to the base marines seemed ti have noticed her.

"... P-Please help me! I have been rowing for days! My ship sank! T-these barrels are all I could save..." - Julia

The marines didn't question Julia. As she seemed like an innocent, pretty woman. They escorted her to a cabin, they also carried the barrels... After getting to the cabin one of the marines tried to check whats in the barrel and both jumped up knocking the marines out quickly so they may not be found out.

"Alright! Let's do this!"- Nowan
