Crew of psychos!

*Boing~ Boing~ Boing~!*

A figure of a small camouflaged girl is jumping around the clouds while observing the surroundings carefully. She suddenly stops, makes sure she is alone before jumping high up and disappearing into the cloud below.

There she appears in a hidden space with native american- like buildings and decorations- The hidden cloud village of the shandians.

"Where have you been, Aisa?" A man asks while not sparing a glance as he sharpens his knives.

"Ooof!!" Aisa falls down in surprise after being called out.

"Oh it's just you, Kamakiri!!" Aisa picks herself up again a bit nervously.

"Upper yard again? You have Varse in your bag, don't you? You should be careful. The game could cost you your life." Kamakiri observes his sharp knife.

"Pfft! Yeah, well that's my problem! Anyway, it's not like you will evel defeat Enel!!" Aisa stick out her tongue before running away.

"That brat…" Kamakiri's veins pop out.

"So this is our chance?" Shandian chief

"Right. The man calling himself the friend of the descendant of Noland, he is planning to attack Enel by the latest of tomorrow. That's when he promised us to show the biggest humiliation of Enel to appease us." Wyper

"And why should we trust he can do that? Does he have any demands?" Tribesman

"From our brief confrontation, he seems very powerful. He can fly, control the wind, emit fire from his body and become bigger. But looking at him and his comrades, they seem to be very strong with a few exceptions." Wyper explains his observations about our strength.

"As for his demands… He said he will defeat Enel for free, but if he can defeat him, he has the strength to be the next overlord. He plans to make this place his second base and also mentioned about ruling it, if we 'allow' him to…" Wyper bites his lips in frustration.

"OUTRAGEOUS!!!" Some tribesman yelled inside the teepee.

"... Did he mention why he would want to be the ruler and what he plans after?" The chief wants to first see what I plan.

"He said that if he rules, he can improve the lives of everyone here. Protection, he would allow the return of Shandians, ring the light of Shandora, make rules for no discrimination between the tribes, provide soil- should mean varse since he said it's to cultivate food and he would allow us the passage between Skypiea and his other kingdom in the blue sea. He sent me away allowing me to come discuss it first with you chief." Wyper looks at the chief to hear his response.

The chief starts to think through it but is then interrupted by another tribesman.

"BIG NEWS CHIEF!!! WYPER!!! SATORI OF THE BALL CHALLENGE WAS KILLED!!!" The tribesman yells then he falls down breathing heavily.

"WHAT?! Tell me what happened!!!" Wyper quickly picked the man up and looked at his tired expression.

"T-t-the trespassers have sailed into the sacred lands. A child and a man faced off with Satori! They killed him about an hour ago! I ran as fast as I could!" The man reports what he can after being exhausted after being chased by the priests and the hour journey towards here.

"Seems like they don't waste time? So now begs the question, do we join the trespassers or let them do as they wish." Laki

"The great warrior Kalgara's final orders were 'Bring back the light of Shandora'. That's what we're gonna do. I don't care about Gan Fall, his usurper Enel or anyone else. If this friend of Mont Blanc can lead us to it, let's take advantage and help him defeat Enel!" Wyper stands up, picking up his bazooka.

"Even if I will have to stare at those followers for now. But I will take care of them later, when that guy leaves." Wyper

"Wyper… If that man defeats Enel, returns us the light of Shandora and allows us to live freely… Will you not forget about the grievance? Even as the sky knight, Gann Fall never hurt any of us. But he still is thinking about uniting the two tribes, when you described it to me before. The war has lasted long enough, don't you think?" Laki asks him.

"Are you suggesting that Gann fall and the skypieans should not be considered an enemy? Just because we have a common foe, doesn't make us allies! If you have a problem with that, stay out of the battle!!! Do I make myself clear, Laki?!" Wyper sicks at her.

"Even if the friend of Noland's descendant asks you to not attack the skypieans after? Will you not honor it?" Laki

Wyper becomes quiet as he glares at her.

"Now, is not the time to argue. Wyper, gather the warriors! This might be our only chance of victory against Enel!" Chief

"Will do chief." Wyper sends a glare at Laki before walking out of the tent.

Aisa jumps and runs around the teepee to hide from Wyper, before he bursts out of it.

"EVERY AVAILABLE WARRIOR OF SHANDORA!!! TAKE UP YOUR ARMS!!! TONIGHT WE FIGHT!!!" He yells so it echoes through the whole village.

"Oi Aisa! Stop hiding and come here." Wyper looks towards the teepee, from which Aisa reluctantly walks around.

Laki comes out hearing about Aisa, which the latter took the chance and used her as a shield between herself and Wyper.

"What is it Wyper?" Aisa looks at him.

"So Aisa, let's get this straight. According to your mantra, how many vassals and how many trespassers are left? One vassal and two trespassers?" Wyper asks.

"Nu-uh! Only the vassal blinked out and the two trespassers who fought him are now resting. From the trespassers, there are two flying straight through the forest and the other 14 are sailing together with two skypieans. Three vassals are still there, while Gan Fall hasn't moved yet." Aisa explains after using her abnormal observation haki.

"This seems to work out perfectly for us. Heaven has answered our prayers!!! With such a big strong force to aid us, we will finally retake Shandora!!!" Wyper yells, attracting the yells of all the warriors preparing to head out.

Wyper walks towards the warriors to prepare the last things.

"When are you going to get over your fear of Wyper? You're in my way." Laki brushes off Aisa as she start to prepare herself to fight as well.

"Say Laki?" Aisa

"What is it?" Laki glances back.

"The trespassers are really scary. Be careful, okay?! Just feeling their powers sent chills down my spine!" Aisa warns Laki.

Laki stares at her before she crouches beside Aisa.

"Hey, give me your bag!" Laki

"Huh?! N-no!! No way!! This is my secret bag!! I keep my treasure inside!" Aisa defends her bag.

"Yes, I know. Let me help you gather some~" Laki whispers the second part while winking at her.

"Huh? What is this place?" Chopper asks as they arrive at a stone pyramid.

"It looks like an altar, maybe for sacrifices?" Robin speculates.

"S-s-sacrifices?!" Usopp pales at the thought.

"Well there seems to be no party waiting for us here… I'm going to find my opponent." Zoro jumps from the ship into the forest.

"Hey! Don't go alone! We need to go in groups and leave someone to protect Merry!" Nami

"I don't care, organize yourselves quickly before I leave you behind." Zoro

Everyone organized themselves into groups.

[First group: Zoro, Robin, Chopper, Buggs.

Second Group: Sona, Siren, Lola, Zala.

Third group: Mikita, Lux, Janna.

Merry group: Pagaya, Conis, Usopp, Nami, Sanji.]

"Hey! Where are you going, doc?! That's the wrong direction! West is this way! Sheesh, you have no sense of direction." Buggs yells towards Zoro, before walking east.

"Don't you ever listen?! It's this way!" Zoro yells back.

"Can you go on and tell them that we are going south and that's this way." Robin doesn't seem amused by their stupidity.

"Okay, I will try my best." Chopper

"Huh? South? Why didn't you say so sooner, doc?" Buggs

"Just let's go…" Zoro

"I thought this forest was going to be scarier, but it's not that scary at all, hahaha!" Chopper

"What's up, doc? Are you feeling brave today?" Buggs

"I think so hahaha!" Chopper

"This whole island feels like a let down… Where are the strong bastards Lynx talked about?" Zoro complains.

'Well at least I don't feel that worried with these three.' Robin

"You guys are so funny. Are you that eager for danger?" Robin

*Jurarara!!!*

Right as she stops, they hear a hissing sound. They glance around and see a giant serpent head emerge from between the trees.

"... Well fuck, your mouth just attracts trouble." Buggs looks at Robin.

"Wind is good! Rudder check! Hm, everything is perfect. We are cruising around just fine. But it's slow. Hey Nami! Do something!" Usopp keeps checking the ship for any trouble just in case.

"Sorry captain Usopp, this is it. There are too many bends in the milky road, so we have to rely on the tailwind Janna left us." Nami says sarcastically.

"Grr, go faster wind!" Usopp suddenly is blown down the deck by a sudden wind gust.

"Ouch! Fine, do it your way! Oh, and Sanji, make sure you guard me well. The captain's afraid of this forest." Usopp picks himself up.

"SHUT UP! I'm only protecting Conis and Nami!" Sanji rebutes.

"Huh? What are you kids doing here?!" Gan Fall arrives on Pierre and looks confused at everyone on the ship.

"Oh! You are the knight Lynx talked to in the lower sky sea!" Nami recognizes him.

"Lord Gan Fall?!" Pagaya and Conis both bow to him slightly.

"Oh, what are you two doing here? Did they do something to you?" Gan Fall

"No, they took us with them for some reason… But anyway, are you here to take your rightful place?" Conis asks hopefully.

"Not yet, I came to see if that man is actually going to do what he said… Satori has already fallen." Gan fall lands on the deck.

"He is already defeated?! And what did she mean by rightful place." Usopp is surprised at the efficiency of Annie and Braum.

"Yes, he was. Shall I tell you a bit about the history of this land?" Gan Fall sits down.

"Sure, go ahead." Nami

"Until six years ago, I was 'the god'." Gan Fall

"Did you hit your head, mister?" Usopp stares at him.

Pierre transforms from a bird into his pegasus form and bites down on Usopp's head in annoyance.

"It's been said that the upper yard appeared in Skypiea as you probably already know, some 400 years ago." Gan Fall ignores Usopp and Pierre fighting as he continues.

"Until then, skypiea was a peaceful island in the sky. Once in a while, items from the blue sea would ride up the knock up stream. The people cherished these items. We called these objects 'varse'. It should have been impossible for a varse as huge as the upper yard to make it to the sky. It was a miracle. Our people naturally revered it as a sacred site bestowed by the heavens and were overjoyed." Gan Fall

"But upper yard was different- it was inhabited! Soon fighting broke out over this miraculous varse with the natives- the Shandians." Gan Fall

"The masked guy that attacked us as we appeared?" Usopp

"Yes." Gan Fall

"Then those guys were originally from Jaya and the sky people forced them off?" Sanji

"Yes. I'm sorry to say, we sky people got greedy and stole their homeland." Gan Fall speaks as Pagaya and Conis feel some shame.

"The war continues for 400 years and all the Shandians want is to return home…" Gan Fall

"Then you guys are the bad ones!" Sanji and Usopp point at him, causing Pierre to attack them in annoyance again.

"Yes, you are right. It's exactly as you say." Gan Fall

"And Enel? Who is he?" Nami

"When I was the God, he suddenly appeared from one of the islands with his own army, attacked both my people and the Shandians before taking over the whole upper yard six years ago. Now my troops are his slaves while the Shandians don't care for God, as long as they can go home." Gan Fall

"So that's the backstory?" Nami

"Yes… By the way, where are your other fellows?" Gan Fall

"Oh, they went to fight the priests while captain and Lynx went after Enel." Sanji

"What?! Then I need to be going then to help!! Hope to see you well soon!!" Gan fall jumps on Pierre and flies away.

"Ruuuuuun, bitch, ruuuuuun!!! It's a giant ass snake!!!" Buggs runs like the wind as the giant snake approaches.

"WAAAAHHH!!!" Chopper joins him in that.

"Look at the size. This must also be due to skypiean enviroment." Robin observes it in fascination.

"It's just like a catfish. I'll just chop it all up!!!" Zoro prepares to attack it.

"JURARARARA!!!" The snake charges fast, with Buggs barely avoiding being gobbled up with a jump.

"Despite its size, it moves so fast!" Zoro

The snake bites the tree after missing Buggs. A purplish cloud starts to emanate from the bite wound on the tree.

"Venom?!" Chopper panics.

"I think it's time for a strategic retreat." Zoro

"Agreed." Robin

"Leave me alone! Fuck off, doc!" Buggs screams at the snake as he runs away.

"Jurarara…" The snake looks at Robin up in the tree and strikes.

"Whoops! Cinco fleur!" Robin jumps off the branch and with hands extending from the trees she swings away.

The snake looks around, Chopper is far away from running and then fixes its gaze on Zoro.

"Fuck!" Zoro also jumps away as the snake continues it's chase.

"Well well! My prey has finally come! You'll have to forgive me for the rough welcome!" Shure laughs.

"Who the fuck are you, birdbrain?" Lola screams as she can't move.

"I am Shura! Hahahah! You can't move, can you? Didn't think so. This place has a 3% survival rate!! Welcome to my string challenge!! It's a little late for a warning to be careful." Shura chuckles.

"Hm? You mean these strings?" Sona looks unobstructed.

"Well yes. They are cloud strings and they cover my whole territory! They are so thin, they're nearly invisible, so light you can't feel them and yet so strong that once you're snared, you'll never break free! You've been wrapping yourself in them since you entered this part of the forest. Look closely, you're all covered in string!! The more you try to fight it, the more you'll suffer!!! Hahahaha!!" Shura explains.

"Really? You think you can catch a zytre player in strings? How retarded are you?" Sona looks at him playfully, while destroying a string just by picking it.

"What?!" Shura looks bewildered.

"Thanks for creating an environment perfect for me~ Now, I will be taking your toys away from you~" Sona smiles as she puts down the zytre and flies forward.

"Song of celerity!" She strums the cloud string in the air and speeds up her flight towards Shura.

"W-What?! Fine then! You will die by my hand personally!" Shura yells as he rides his bird into battle.

Sona sends a few normal magic bolts at him, which don't faze him much, so he prepares his heat lance and tries stabbing her.

Sona dodged, but the lance scratched her arm, leaving a burn on it.

"How DARE you stain a woman's skin?! I guess you will not see tomorrow! Aria of perseverance!" Sona glares at Shura and heals her wound by striking another string in the air.

She charges again, this time extending her arms to the sides as she picks the strings in the air. From the sheer rage she ignores the cooldown of her abilities, causing her immense pain and faster mana drain. She continuously triggers the song of celerity, stacking the movement speed up one atop the other. Soon she became invisible to the naked eye with the speed.

"Huh?! Where did she g-?!" Shura doesn't finish his sentence as Sona's fist connect with his face, sending him flying through the air.

"... Oh… That felt… GOOD!!!" Sona has a weird expression on her face. Something between a psychopath and an extreme sadist.

The bird goes wild, losing it's master and tries attacking Sona. She just smiles at it and striking out with her hand, strumming multiple strings- Hymn of valor!

Multiple magic projectiles form and auto-target the bird, shooting the poor bastard out of the sky.

"I need MORE!!" Sona again rushes towards Shura who prepares to counter her again.

"Aqua prison!" A water bubble forms and hits him from behind, trapping him and exposing him to the attack of Sona.

"You are mine!" Sona sucker punches the bastard high into the air from the bubble, entangling him in his own strings.

"Hahahahahahahaha!!!" She jumps up and flies at him again with a new zeal.

"Shit! I need to get out!" Shura wills the strings to let him go.

"You are going nowhere shitty Corky wannabe!!! CRESCENDO!!!" Sona strikes another string, sending a crescent golden chord at him. Hitting him before he can escape the strings.

Shura coughs out blood as his ears bleed as well from the sound damage.

"Helloooo~" Sona appears with a psychopathic expression right in front of Shura's face.

*Boom, slap, trsk, blap,..!!!*

"HahahaHAHAHAHA!!!" Sona starts to laugh maniacally as she punches, slaps, kicks and does whatever else she can do to make harm towards Shura.

Soon she is becoming stained with blood and it only excites her more.

"Aqua prison!!" Siren sends another bubble and caches Sona inside it, canceling her rampage.

The bubble falls to the ground with Sona inside before breaking and washing off the blood that was on her. Sona looks confused but she sees the stares of the other three girls.

"... What?!" She stares like she doesn't know what she did.

"You know what! Look at the guy! He literally is a bloody mess!" Lola stares disbelievingly at her.

"I thought that I was cold… But you are a sadist on a god level." Zala comments.

"We will need a talk… Or master might send you back if you can't control yourself." Siren

"... No he won't~ Lux last time deleted a whole crew with a laser and you saw how Annie is unstable~" Sona smiles at Siren.

"... Will I end up surrounded by crazy psychopaths? Will he summon Jinx next?" Siren just facepalmed.

"...You just jinxed it~" Sona smiles at her.

"... FUUUUUUCK!!!" Siren yells.

Damn, today was difficult coming up with new content besides the original. But I somehow made it :D

Enjoy~
