100 year resolution.

"So what do we do with these two?" Nami asks while we stare at our prisoners.

Mr 3 is crying, hanging with his shirt from Tibbers mouth. Miss Goldenweek is sitting on a picnic blanket while sipping tea under our gazes.

"Do we throw them into the ocean?" Zoro

"We don't have to go that far. They lost and are on the hunt list of Sandyass. I don't really care about Mr 3 since he will hold a grudge." I am sitting on a log with Annie humming on my lap.

"But Miss Goldenweek could be a good addition to us, if you get my drift." I give the calm girl a glance.

Everyone looks confused on what to do.

"Ah! Then let's recruit! Little Goldie, you are joining my crew!" Luffy

Miss Goldenweek looks up from her tea.

"..... Okay." She continues to sip her tea.

"WOHOO!!! Another member!" Luffy

"YOU ACCEPTED JUST LIKE THAT?!?!" Most of the Straw hats.

"... Well I would be hunted down. You are my best shot right now to survive. Plus you are strong if you actually cooperate, like them." She points at me, Annie, Braum and Mikita.

"HEY! He was the first to leave us!" Usopp

"He led away Mr 5 that would cause bigger explosions as Mr 4 did with his bazooka. And he also took care of him by himself before appearing with that little girl… Where did she come from actually?" Miss Goldenweek tilts her head.

"I will not discuss it in the presence of those not part of the crew." I look specifically for Mr 3 who would just love to share my information for revenge.

"Fair enough!" She shrugs her shoulders.

"Well as part of the crew, you should tell us your real name." I keep patting Annie's head while she sits on my lap.

"EEEH?! She is named Goldie?!" Luffy

"Of course not. That was my codename. My real name is Marianne." Maryanne

"So you are just going to tell your name?" Nami looks sceptical.

"Ah she isn't lying if you are thinking that. She is very lazy actually, so as long as she can relax, she will oblige." I explain her character.

"That is true." She nods.

"So can we already get rid of this guy then? Since we can't dispose of him, I at least don't want to watch his ugly mug." Zoro points at Mr 3.

"Yea, Tibbers is bored already. He says that the mister isn't moving enough." Annie

We all look at Mr 3 as he shivers.

…

"Firing in 3...2...1..Blast off!" Lynx

In front of our group is Mr 3 sitting on a wax folded airplane sweating hard. The plane is in front of Luffy with his limbs stretched out 1 km away where the giants are holding one pair of limbs each.

Me and Mikita acted as anchors weighing 10 tons each and we let go of Luffy.

"Gomu gomu no Rocket launch! WEEEEEEE!!!" Luffy

"SAAAAVEEEEEE MEEEEEE!!!!" Mr 3

The two practically disappeared from the spot with only their voices trailing behind.

"... You've got some evil ideas, you know that right?" Heph commented as she looked at me.

"Ya say it like it wasn't a hell of an idea! I could only wish ta launch elves away like that! Bwahaha!" Durin

Some look at Durin only thinking one thing.

'Are the elves lucky that you don't have these things or unlucky that you will now get inspiration from Lynx's ideas?'

A few minutes later the two giants came back with moping Luffy.

"Why is he so sad?" Sanji

"LYNX YOU BASTARD! I should be the first to try out something so fun!" Luffy yells at me.

"God dammit!" Nami and Vivi facepalm.

"Sorry captain, but how do you want to return after we launch you?" I ask him.

"A-... I don't know." Luffy

"Then there you have it." Lynx

*Pururururu, pururururu,...*

We hear the denden mushi ring.

*Kacha*

"Hello, this is restaurant Le Crap. Would you like to make a reservation?" Sanji

*yoink!*

"Stop messing around, you idiot! You are late with your report!" Crocodile

I cover Sanji's mouth while taking the microphone.

"Mr 5, who told you to receive my call! Sorry, Mr 0. Mr 5 got too relaxed after he called one particular Straw hat." I pretend to be Mr 3 and blame Mr 5 for Sanji's stunt.

"You've been gone a long time Mr 3. So with Mr 5 killing that guy, does it mean you finished your mission?" Crocodile

"Yes, they are dead. We also got the two giants for the 200 million bounty." Lynx

"Good, good. Then take the eternal pose to Alabasta and go on your way. Take Mr 4, Miss Goldenweek and Miss Merry Christmas while Mr 5 can cash in the two giants. Come soon as the operation will begin when you come." Crocodile

"Understood. Will come as fast as we can." Lynx

*Kacha*

"Well, that should take care of Crocodile being on our ass until we arrive at Alabasta or those two fuckers get back to him." I point at the two unluckies.

When everyone has their attention on them, they pack and fly off.

"Usopp, shoot them down!" I quickly command Usopp, who quickly takes out a gunpowder star and shoots.

It impacts the wing, making the two unluckies crash.

"Who wants the honor?" Lynx

"Mine!" Luffy launches himself at them.

"Wow daddy's friend can stretch!" Annie

"Ok, I really gotta address this. Are we really going to start having kids on the ship? This makes two." Zoro points at Annie and Marianne.

"I am actually 16." Marianne interjects.

"WHAT?!" No one believes it.

"Wait?! You are the same age as me?!" Vivi looks down at the tiny teen.

"Sorry for not being as well developed as you." Marianne

Everyone shifts their gaze from Marianne to Annie.

"How old is Annie then?" Vivi

"Annie is five!" Annie raises her hand cheerfully.

"But should you really be commenting about kids when this kid saved you a- *Ahem!* … Saved your skin when you were about to be turned into a wax statue?" Mikita corrects herself after I interrupted her and pointed at Annie.

"... You really gonna act that way, when you were the one who swore the most between us?" Vivi looks at me weirdly.

"... I don't know, Father instinct just burst out… You are right actually, they are only words! Come Annie, I will teach you how to curse enemies properly!" I stand up and start to lead her away.

"YAAAAY!!!" Annie skips after me.

"HEY GET BACK HERE!!! DON'T TEACH HER THAT!!!" Vivi Screams after us.

Braum jumps towards me and blocks my way.

"Nah-ah! You should teach her to be respectful." Braum

I look at Annie and have an inner dilemma. But then an idea pops up.

"Alright! I will teach her the right way to insult. Only the ones deserving it and without the curse words. Is that okay?" I look at Braum.

"Good enough." Braum walks away giving me free rein.

"LYNX!" Vivi screams.

"Fine!" I pick up Annie and start going back.

"I'll teach you when we are alone." I whisper.

"Un!" Annie just nods.

"But the ship sure is getting crowded with the new members…" Usopp comments to himself.

"Well, we should get slowly packing, we need to leave for Alabasta soon." Nami

"Yes! Crocodile said they are starting their plans! We can't wait any longer!" Vivi panics remembering about her country.

"Daddy, why is the blue girl sticking to your back?" Annie points at my back as Vivi is sticking again to it.

"Mommy is just nervous." I teasingly look at Vivi, who hides her face.

"I got a mommy too?... The last one didn't like me much…" Annie glares at Vivi.

"Uh? Did she have any problems before?" Vivi asks me.

"Tell you later." I whisper back before turning to Annie again.

"Actually, you have two mommy's! The blue one on my back is Vivi and see that one with lemon clothing? She is Mikita. And don't worry, they will like you." I send the two a gaze.

"OH! Then Annie will try her best! Say hello Tibbers." She makes the toy Tibbers wave his arm with her own.

"Tibbers says hi!" Annie smiles.

"Hi Tibbers! Hi Annie!" Vivi waves back, with Mikita smiling awkwardly in the back.

"And let's introduce the rest. This here is Uncle Braum, he will gladly help you with anything." Lynx

"If you need help, you call Braum." Braum

"This is uncle Durin, he is fun and is very wise… Just don't take the pointy things he gives you." Lynx

"Ey! Ya forgot ta mention heavy things like hammers, hahahaha!" Durin

"This is aunt Heph, she is very friendly but again, don't take pointy things." Lynx

"I'm not so stupid to give knives to a kid!" Heph

"This is uncle Zoro, don't bother him too much since he has no clue how to take care of kids." Lynx

"Hey! I am able to take care of kids!" Zoro

"Good, she needs her diaper changed!" Lynx

"Uuh, ok I don't know!" He grumbles and looks away.

"Yea, cause if you did, you would know she doesn't need diapers anymore." I smirk at Zoro.

"You little sh-!" Nami hits him as he was about to curse.

"And this is aunt Nami. She is nice but don't try to learn anything besides navigation from her." Lynx

"Do you need a punch as well?!" Nami

"Well, a burglar and a loanshark aren't the things I want her to learn. One on the boat is enough already." Lynx

"..." Nami is getting pissed off so I continue.

"That is uncle Usopp. He can make great toys but don't believe any of his stories." Lynx

"Why not?" Annie

"Because most of them are not real. That is uncle Sanji, he is a great cook." Lynx

Sanji just stares at me for what reason I didn't insult him too.

"That there beating the otter and vulture is your uncle Luffy and our captain. If he has any ideas come tell me or Braum first.

This is your new aunt Marianne. She will paint you something if you bring her a drink or to eat."

Marianne just nods after hearing what I said.

"Those two are uncles Broggy and Dorry but they won't be traveling with us. They have their own things to do." Lynx

"Hi little one, hohoho!" Broggy

"Thanks for saving us! Hohohohoho!" Dorry

"And that's everybody for now!" Lynx

"Hi everyone!" Annie waves at everyone and starts to wander from person to person.

"Oh right! Broggy and Dorry, you said you forgot what you fought for, right?" I face the two giants.

"Yes, it had been too long since then." Dorry

"Does it maybe have to do with those giant skeletons of sea kings on the island?" Lynx

"Now that you mention it…" Broggy

"You were arguing over who caught the bigger sea king, didn't you?" Lynx

"... Ah! Ah! He is right Broggy!" Dorry

"Yea! A human girl asked us and then we fought!" Broggy

"So tell me, the god of Elbaf protects the winner, right?" Lynx

"Yes!" They both nod.

"Then since you fought so many times without a winner… Isn't that the judgement of the god that the sea kings were the same size so there is no winner or loser?" Lynx

"... But now it isn't anymore about who caught it, but who will win in the end." Dorry

"*Sigh* But don't you think we are a sign from your god? You have fought for 100 years for something that there couldn't be a winner. Now the strongest people in the sea have bounties over a billion! And none of them are giants, are you willing to let the world forget about you?! The god didn't since he arranged this fateful meeting!" Lynx

Everyone just stares at what I am talking about.

"Wait, are there really people with such bounties on the seas?" Broggy

"Yes… And among them is one person… A person that almost wiped out Elbaf." Lynx

"WHAT?! YOU ARE LYING!!! NO ONE COULD DO SUCH A THING!" The two giants are enraged.

"Then why don't you go to Elbaf and make sure?" I give them a serious stare.

"But who would be able to do such a thing?" The giants look at each other nervously.

"A child giant… No a devil in the body of a giant. She almost wiped Elbaf and they now have a blood feud. I won't say anymore, but it's better to make your way back to Elbaf." Lynx

The two giants keep staring at me and sharing looks until they sigh.

"Fine! We will respect the wish of our god after one more battle to confirm." Dorry

"Great! You can now finally return home!" Usopp

Luffy comes back after finishing with the unluckies.

"So what did I miss?" Luffy

"Everyone was introduced to Annie and Lynx convinced the giants to stop the fights after one more battle." Sanji lights a cigarette.

"Wha?! Lynx! Why did you mess with a warriors battle?!" Luffy yells at me.

"Jesus, can you be any louder? But anyway, I told them there are more important things waiting for them. If they want to battle again, they can do it after, but they need to get home soon." Lynx

"Ah? Really? What is it?" Luffy

"Family matters." I answer not seriously.

"Okay! You need to be for your family there." Luffy nods.

"Alright, since Luffy is now here, let's go." Nami

"Oi! We want to see the last battle of the giants!" Luffy and Usopp.

"Well we can! How would you two feel about changing the battle a bit?" I smile at them.

"In what way?" Dorry

"Where you collaborate to take down the island eater? Your weapons are in quite poor shape so let's say the ones whose weapon doesn't survive your ultimate attack is the loser." Lynx

"Well we do have to kill it if you want to leave the island… Let's do it! We need to go to Elbaf soon anyway, so let's end our battles with a bang! Hohoho! " Broggy

"Couldn't agree more my friend! Hohohohoho!" Dorry

We take all our stuff and board our ship. Raising the anchor and sails we make our way down the river to the sea, where the giants were waiting.

"You risked your lives to defend our honor and showed us enjoyment after such a long time." Dorry

"Now no matter what…" Broggy

".. We will allow no enemy to trample on our friends pride!" Dorry

"Have faith in us and sail straight ahead! No matter what happens, sail straight ahead!!" Broggy

"Okay! We will!" Luffy

Heeding their words we make our way to the open sea, when a giant goldfish makes its appearance.

"Turn the ship! A giant goldfish has appeared!" Nami

Usopp just stares as he remembers something about a giant goldfish.

"Usopp! Turn the wheel!" Nami

"I can't! We are sailing straight ahead, right Luffy?" Usopp

"Right! Of course!" Luffy

"*Whistle* Thats one big fish! Can we have that for breakfast?" Durin asks Sanji.

"Sure, if we survive." Sanji

"Hmm, if I caught that, no one in the Freljord would be hungry…" Braum rubs his chin.

"Never eaten a goldfish before…" Lynx

"Does it taste good daddy? I wanna try~" Annie

"Me too." Marianne

"WHY IS EVERYONE THINKING ABOUT EATING A GOLDFISH WHEN WE ARE GOING TO BE EATEN BY ONE?!" Nami screamed in tears.

Vivi already gave up on our sanity and just squeezed tighter on my back. Mikita just came close so she can hold my hand and Braum is standing behind us.

Marianne glances at our huddling group.

"Safe in number?" And she just comes close to hold me by my shirt.

"Island eater, you overgrown goldfish…" Dorry

"It's not just that he is huge. He eats whole islands and his shit is big as one too!" Broggy

"Truly, they are big as islands." Dorry

"Hohoho! Remember the time we mistook one for an island and landed on it?" Broggy

"How could I forget all that? This brings me back to the good old times!" Dorry

"The only thing we can't pierce is a snake soaked in blood!" Dorry

"Behold the legendary spear of Elbaf!!!" Broggy

""Hakoku sovereignty!!!"" Both

A blast of light is fired from their weapons as they pierce through the goldfish and sends our ship flying out the other side.

"Woow! So strong!" Luffy

"They blasted a hole through it!! That's the power of the warriors of Elbaf!" Usopp is crying tears of joy from both surviving and seeing their might.

"May good fortune accompany you!!! Hohohoho!!!" The two giants laugh as both their weapons broke.

"Gwahahaha!!! Guess the kid was right! No matter what we do, it will end up in a tie!" Dorry

"Hohohoho!!! Guess the god has spoken! Time to go home and get some new ones!" Broggy

…

"We are going to Elbaf!!! To the village of warriors!" Luffy and Usopp start dancing together on the railing.

"Damn, I am exhausted from the adventure. Can you guys stop cuddling and come hold the eternal pose for a moment?" Nami

"Sure thing! Braum is always ready to help." Braum comes to pick the pose up.

"Well now we can finally go save your country Vivi." I smile at her back.

"Of course as long as we don't run into any trouble in between." Nami

"Hey girls, I brought some refreshments!" Sanji brings some desserts, coffee and juice to the girls.

"Where's daddy's and uncle Braums share?" Annie looks at Sanji.

"The guys have it in the kitchen." Sanji smiles at her.

"Stingy brow. Now daddy has to leave to get his own." Annie

"S-s-stingy brow?!" Sanji's eyebrow twitches at the nickname and he looks at me.

"Don't look at me! I still had no time to teach her insults. This is her natural talent!" Lynx

"..." Sanji is speechless.

…

"Hey can somebody help me get to my bed… I'm very tired…" Nami collapses to the floor.

"Jeez, you should watch out for your health mo-." Mikita walks towards Nami when she suddenly also collapses near her.

"MIKITA!!! NAMI!!!" Everyone runs toward the collapsed duo.

"They have burning fever!" Vivi
