In a room in the royal palace of the Arabasta Kingdom, Vampire is laying on a bed talking with Sengoku and Garp using Bert. She told the. What happen when she went off to take down Crocodile by herself, but he had a magic glowing green knife that could cut her, which he stabbed her and drained her of her blood. But he made the mistake of leaving without making sure she was really dead and that mistake allowed her to recover her strength. With her awaken something in her and allowed her to fly to the capital and stop Crocodile and his group.

"Where is the knife now?" Sengoku ask.

"It's in space where I threw it. Beyond anyone's reach," Vampire said.

"What happen with Ace and Luffy?" Garp ask.

"Left already, they held up their end of the deal so, I let them go," Vampire said.

"According to Smoker, they stayed in the palace for awhile before you escorted out," Sengoku said.

"Yes but Ace is apart of Whitebeard's crew and the unspoken rules are still in effect. The only one who can get away with smacking them around is me, till they send wave after wave of female crew to calm me down," Vampire said.

"At least you only have sex with women and that you're not a boy," Garp said not wanting to think of how many kids Vampire would have at this point if she was a boy.

"What are you planning on doing now?" Sengoku ask.

"I'm still recovering from my near death so, I'm staying at the palace and helping to take care of any loose ends," Vampire said.

"So how did you fly and shoot lasers from your eyes?" Garp ask.

"I don't know. I guess almost dying just unlock something in me," Vampire said.

"There be plenty who be wanting to learn to fly," Garp said.

"I know my crew mates all want to learn to fly. But it's not like, I even know how I did it. I think it's like awakening a devil fruit, you can't explain how you did it or teach it, awakening just happens. If it could be taught, Flamingo would had taught all of his crew who have devil fruit. That's what I think I did, I mastered haki to a level that no one else has done before. I've been immune to everyone's Conqueror's Haki since I was little. I guess my new flight and heat vision, are just apart of a new level," Vampire said.

"Immune is right, I remember how Kong caught you in his office eating his stash of snacks. He tried using his haki on you and ended up knocking just about everyone out, while you just kept on eating his snacks," Garp laughs.

"That ended when Kong just got into your face telling you to stop, and causing you to cry," Sengoku said.

"How are people taking that, I now can fly and have heat vision?" Vampire ask.

"You were already big news before and now you're even bigger news," Sengoku said.

Out at sea -

The ship of the Bayan Pirates is being torn apart for resources, the crew dead or will wish they were. The captain of the pirate crew is screaming as he's being eaten alive by a mob of Reavers. He had tried to escape and ran aground on the small island hoping to escape into the jungle. Zip and Maccus are being cooked alive after being raped, Bonney is being raped by the Reavers along with other surviving crew members.

On the bridge of his ship, a massive liner that once belonged to a world noble, is the creator of the Reavers, the captain of the Chainsaw Pirates, Carter 'The Doctor' Herman.

Bounty - 5,000,000,000

The Doctor currently has the largest bounty of any pirate, surpassing the Emperors. Due to what he does and what his creations do to anyone they come across. The Chainsaw Pirates are the most feared pirates in any sea, thanks to what Reavers are made to do. Every single one is an utterly barbaric, sociopathic, near-unthinking sadomasochists who commit any and all acts of violence they are able to. Not even the Rock Pirates at their worst were anywhere close to what the Reavers are. Of course having an entire crew composed entirely of hyper-aggressive sociopaths is simply unsustainable.

The Doctor turn to his two none Reavers who like him are programmed not to attack on sight.

Mr. (Coffin Filler) Black was the undertaker of an island of Tarnation, till everyone died but him. Which Mr Black sold coffins and plots, till there was no one left to bury. Leaving him with no choice but start again in another town but was caught in the act of making sure there be more deaths to fill his coffins. Still wears his black undertaker clothes and has a coffin on his back.

Bounty - 300,000,000

Jesse (Hangman) Lynch he was hanged after he was caught red-handed at the scene of the McDonell Massacre. The next morning the lawmen assumed someone had swiped the body... until a pale man wearing, Jesse's clothes and a noose held up a ship. Heading for the last place the Chainsaw Pirates were seen, figuring no lawman would dare follow. He still has the noose around his neck and still wearing his cowboy outfit and armed with his revolvers. (2)

Bounty - 500,000,000

Carter toss the newspaper on the table showing the headline with a picture of the famous bounty huntress, Monkey D Vampire flying, and other picture of her using her laser vision. With the story of her being stab by a magic knife that former warlord Crocodile had resulting in her coming back much stronger. The navy has given all credit of taking down the warlord to Vampire.

"Vampire has become much stronger, thanks to Crocodile. I want you two to find out what you can using our intelligence network, take who you need. I just want to learn all I can about what Vampire can do now. Also she's has a crew now, find out what you can about them as well," Carter said.

"Looks like we're going to be missing the fun," Jesse said.

The island Bayan Pirates ran aground on has a town on it. The crew are already going through the jungle to reach the town, where they be able to have their fun. The ones who survive will be brought back to the ship and be transform into new crew members.

"Shall we take care of her crew if given a chance?" Mr. Black ask.

"If you can but only if you can do it without Vampire knowing. I don't want her to know that I'm interested in her," Carter said. If he could figure out how to copy Vampire's new powers, there's no telling what he could do.

Author's Notes -

1 - Devil Fruit awakening is what happens when the mind of a Devil Fruit user catches up with their powers. In other words, Devil Fruits require a synchronization of the mind and the fruit of the user. This allows the user to take the fruit beyond its limitations and manifest different powers that they were unable to use prior to this.

2 - I know that flintlock pistols fit the whole pirate theme of One Piece. But seeing how they have revolvers in the manga and anime, why do people continue to use flintlocks when revolvers are much faster and better.
