Meanwhile

Ace was sitting on the Moby Dick in a dazed state. Isabella was sleeping next to him with her head on his shoulder. Marco looked at him and said "Ace-yoi." Ace looked over at Marco, who shook his head and said "We all miss pops."

Ace looked at him and Marco changed his tone and pointed at Isabella, saying angrily "But you need to focus on yourself-yoi! Izzy was crying the whole time you were gone, did you know? You might have lost pops, but you still have family-yoi!"

Ace was silent and Marco shook his head, adding "I would focus on my family if I were you." he side eyed Ace and finished "Before you lose it." as he walked away to another part of the deck. Ace looked at Isabella on his shoulder and held her hand with a small smile.

Whitebeard's body and Bisento mysteriously appeared on the deck of the Moby Dick a few days ago. His wounds were gone and he had a peaceful smile, he was clearly dead, but the crew was thankful that they had his corpse so it could be buried.

Marco knew exactly who it was and thanked Hiro in his heart.

They traveled around aimlessly for months, grieving for their dead captain, until Blackbeard attacked them with his new crew, revealing that he had Whitebeard's devil fruit, angering the crew to the extreme.

It was a terrible war with less that 40% of the crew getting out unscathed as they fled. They had no choice, Blackbeard was too strong! He had double devil fruits and debatably the more powerful two from Paramecia and Logia, there were even rumors that he had a Zoan as well.

Isabella fought hard and managed to blast their ship to pieces as the Moby Dick escaped, she froze them in the water and left them there. Ace was seething with rage at the mere sight of Blackbeard, but reigned it in, vowing to get revenge for Whitebeard eventually.

The crew got away and Marco decided that it was enough. He called for the crew to disband, much to the shock of everyone else. He explained that this wasn't what pops wanted, he wanted them all to have happy lives and claimed that he, himself, was retiring.

The rest of the crew just sighed and the Moby Dick sailed around, meeting with Shanks' ship. He joined them for their final journey as they dropped off everyone where they wanted to go before going to Sphinx, where Whitebeard was born.

They buried Whitebeard along with his Bisento and made a tomb stone for him on the island. Ace and Isabella stayed on the island with Marco for a bit before Shanks offered them to join his crew. Ace politely refused him and Isabella smiled and went with whatever Ace said.

Shanks smiled and said that it wasn't a problem, before throwing Isabella an eternal pose and smiling "You should go there before anything else." Isabella caught the Eternal Pose and Ace looked at it, saying "Demon Flower Island?"

Shank smiled mysteriously and left, saying "Just go there, you will be surprised. It's a very nice place." Isabella and Ace were confused and Isabella looked at Ace, who said "We don't have anywhere else to go..." she took out her boat and smiled "Let's go then." Ace smiled and nodded, asking Marco if he wanted to come along, but he refused and said that he was going to stay here and be a doctor while protecting the island.

So the kids left and sailed towards Demon Flower Island.

The seas were anything but calm.

Whitebeard's crew disbanded leaving a hole for a new Emperor, the Marines were absolutely uninvolved with the struggle, busy setting up their new base and recovering from the War.

Meanwhile

Blackbeard and his crew, fought against Big Mom and Kaido for the Emperor spot. The entire New World was engulfed in the flames of war over the title. Blackbeard first attacked New Tottoland and ran through Linlin's ranks, revealing his third Devil fruit, the Zoan for Cerberus.

Unfortunately for him, even his 3 Devil Fruit Powers weren't enough for Big Mom's massive army, she lost a few children and was so angry she ripped Jesus Burgess in half, before fighting with Teach himself, devastating the island, forcing Blackbeard to flee with the remainder of his crew.

They ran into Kaido, who was prepared for war against Linlin.

He smashed Blackbeard out of his way, not even seeing him an an opponent. Blackbeard and his crew were crushed and in tatters as Sanjuan Wolf was killed by Kaido tearing his head off in his Dragon Form. Queen crushed Avalo Pizarro and King drowned Catarina Devon before Blackbeard managed to flee.

They escaped away and Blackbeard was completely enraged at the fact that they both didn't take him seriously. It was time for drastic measures.

He convened with his crew, who were equally as angry as him. They all agreed to Teach's plans and they sailed off as Teach's eyes turned full of evil, taking out a machine he got from god knows where.

He typed in something and a dot appeared, he turned the ship and sailed towards the dot.

Kaido attacked Linlin and after a 5 day long fight, with basically no deaths, Kaido left with a victory and was crowned by the Government as the new Emperor as he sailed away.

Big Mom's island was in tatters and she cursed to herself before dialing a snail and getting someone to heal her kids. A voice appeared over the snail, saying "What do you want, hag!" Linlin growled "Watch your tone with me, Shiki! You owe me, remember?!"

Shiki grunted in disgust and replied "Worst decision of my life." Linlin laughed "Mamamama! How would you escape Impel Down without my help? No, better yet, would you even be famous if not for me?" Shiki stayed silent for a moment before saying "What do you want." Linlin replied "I want a few islands, around a dozen." Shiki almost died of rage and shouted "A DOZEN ISLANDS!? FOR WHAT?!"

Linlin growled "Bastard! Who gave you that fruit! Tell me!" Shiki roared "I DON'T CARE IF YOU GAVE ME THE FRUIT, LINLIN! A DOZEN IS TOO MUCH!" she rubbed her eyes and said "Fine. Then get me 10 and bring them to Tottoland." Shiki said "I want my debt cleared." Linlin said "Fine! Don't come asking me for more favors!" Shiki chuckled and said "Heh. Don't worry, you'll never hear from me again." before hanging up.

Linlin threw the snail and killed it in rage. She reigned in her hunger pangs, extremely serious at the moment. Uncharacteristically, she normally just let them go, but now she couldn't. He needed to rebuild and fast.

She called "Pero, honey!" Perospero appeared in the room and said happily "Yes, Mama?" she smiled and said "Whitebeard's territories, where did they go?" Perospero took out a clipboard and said "Ummm... We have Fish-Man island as per the agreement a long time ago, Kaido took the other half and that new man with the 3 devil fruits claimed the rest before anyone else."

Linlin said "The oni?" Perspero said "He didn't take any, Mama." he tilted his head and asked "Why though?" Linlin replied "He doesn't need to take any, though I'm surprised..." suddenly the snail to her left started ringing, she answered and Hiro said "Hey, balloon woman! I want Fishman Island!"

Linlin shouted "FUCK OFF!" Hiro chuckled and said "Hey, Hey, don't be like that, are you ever even going to go there? Even with a coating, you would still float! Listen, give it to me and I'll remold your island, how about it." Perospero looked at Linlin and she frowned in thought.

She covered the snail and Perospero said "This is good, mama! Tell him, you want it made exactly how you say or else no deal! Plus, we don't really need Fishman Island! This is a good deal for us!" Linlin was silent for a few moments before replying to Hiro "You'll make it EXACTLY how I want?" Hiro said "Sure. Though, the candy buildings are on you. I'm only changing the landscape."

Linlin said "Just for Fish-Man Island? Why?" Hiro chuckled and said "I don't need to tell you, do I? Do you agree or not." Perospero nodded and Linlin said "Deal." Hiro replied "Cool! I'll be there in a bit-" Linlin said "Wait, oni brat! I'll call you again when I want it done!"

Hiro was confused and she said "Only this way or else no deal." Hiro said "Okay, whatever. Don't fall and die, fatty." before hanging up. Linlin took a deep breath and the snail looked at her in fear, she patted the snail and didn't throw it across the room this time, saying "Pull out from Fish-Man Island."

Perospero nodded and left to take care of it.
